And when Malkin was clearly corrected by the University of Arizona today (heck, even Fox News debunked that lie today), Malkin said she "didn't believe it" and kept spreading that there was Obama team involvement in the tees.

Wing posted a blog from one of the true believers forwarding those lies, the blogger also added the falsehood that Obama turned it into a 2012-type political rally. Even Fox News and Charles Krauthammer said no to that lie.

Face it: Obama was invited, he gave a terrific speech, as did the other speakers there who read scripture, everyone in the country loved the evening, except a few haters like Malkin who, less than 24-hours later, are going right back into the political gutter.

Politico has a good story about the mood in the auditorium ("Mourning Turns to Cheers at Arizona Rally") including comments from the University President and the mayor, who said:

Quote:
Asked if the mood was appropriate, Tucson Mayor Bob Walkup, a Republican, didn’t hesitate: “Oh yes. Yes! If there was one thing that was appropriate, it was cheering. I’ve been in the hospital, and the people that are healing, they want to hear people cheer.”
