Air America's Mike Malloy, of the Mike Malloy Show on XM satellite radio, has no interest in hosting his show from CPAC's radio row at the annual conference coming on Febrauary 9th. In response to an emailed invitation extended to him by CPAC's media director Andrea Saul, Malloy told listeners:
"Um . . . you're kidding, right? Why would I have any desire whatsoever to attend or participate in a convocation of neo-Nazis? I had two uncles fight against you [expletive] in WW2. And, now, surprise! surprise! here you all are on US soil. Kindly get the [expletive] off my email. Thanks."
Saul, who included Al Franken and G.Gordon Liddy in last years activities was flabbergasted. She said, "I'm all for a difference of opinion, but this is entirely uncalled-for, and all the more offensive when you consider that I'm Jewish, lost family in the Holocaust and had a grandfather almost killed in WWII."
