@MJMcKean (speechless)

We are speechless, too, but not surprised. The Left is always up for a jab at someone spreading a little common sense. Remember when liberals called for more civility in our political discourse? Ha, that was a good one.

McKean is best known for his portrayal of Squiggy’s friend, Lenny, on the sitcom Laverne & Shirley. He also portrayed David St. Hubbins in Spinal Tap, which we have to admit was a great movie.

He and other libs have their panties in a wad because Twitchy owner/CEO Michelle Malkin dared to call the Obama campaign strategy out for what it is.

From Mediaite:

Malkin slammed President Obama’s supporters. “Romney types, of course, are the ones who sign the front of the paycheck, and the Obama types are the one who have spent their entire lives signing the back of them,” she said.

Malkin and many other conservatives admire successful businessmen.  They do not think pursuit of profit is evil, oppressive, or greedy.

Of course, lefties wasted no time in voicing their fervent agreement with McKean’s statement:

@MJMcKean I think I'd rather you have posted an actual dick than what passes for compassion & humanity among scummy GOP apologists.

@MJMcKean – Malkin's proof that America is a land of opportunity, and you don't have to be a white male to be a douche.

And then there are those who just blatantly and willfully miss the point:

Michelle Malkin insults every American who draws a paycheck http://t.co/WVQhTwrY #p2 #tcot #asswipes

Hahah Michelle Malkin, too stupid for a real job, sneers at those who work all their lives for paycheck http://t.co/1hWRWk7N @michellemalkin

Clearly our boss has touched a nerve and, as usual, the Hollywood/progressive Left’s only response is derogatory, mysoginist invective.

Update: McKean tweets “sincere apologies.”

Sincere apologies to the actual @MichelleMalkin; nothing personal, just angry re "back of check" bit. I shall no longer give the award.

— Michael McKean (@MJMcKean) July 16, 2012

@American_hero No, but when I make a stinky, I say "sorry" an strike a match.

— Michael McKean (@MJMcKean) July 16, 2012

Perhaps this was in response to tweets like these:

@MJMcKean wow! you are one class act!
