The easiest target is Rush Limbaugh. A heavy-set cuddly teddy bear of a guy who is wildly popular in America. She isn't really targeting Rush though, she just used his name because it's a house-hold name. Because he's wildly popular...because America is conservative.

Granholm doesn't like any conservatives especially Palin. See, Jennifer used to be a female Governor when Sarah Palin was getting all the attention. Stay with me here, I'm trying to help you understand how liberal women think. She went so far as to say that Palin was getting all the attention, not because her ideas are popular with the American people, or because her ideas are common sense, but because Palin is very pretty.

Don't underestimate how the basic female "she's prettier than me" lament is at play here. Granholm, always teased about her facial moles has had them removed for her new TV show on a channel no one has heard of. In the photo used for the Atlantic article, Granholm is shown mole-free in a blue shirt up against a brick wall.

A brick wall, just like the State of Michigan encountered in about 2009. That reminds me, I have remember to ask David Limbaugh if he would change his twitter pic.

Jennifer's target is Mark Levin, and I think I know why.

When Granholm was swinging the axe on the last few sectors of growth in Michigan, Supreme Court Justice Stevens was announcing his retirement.  Granholm was on the short list of replacements, but Obama nominated Elena Kagan instead. Kagan must be a genius or something, according to Granholm's logic, because she's nothing whatsoever to look at.

So Granholm was passed over and was named to Obama's Economic Team, (I'm not making this up) and got a neat amount of money to teach at Berkeley.  She was born in Canada, so she can't be a VP nominee, but there are going to be openings on the Supreme Court in the next four years, and since there are no requirements save Senate confirmation for Supreme Court Justice, she may just end up on the short list again.

Since Mark Levin's Landmark Legal Foundation has filed one of the key briefs in the Obamacare SCOTUS argument, Granholm mentions Mark Levin as a direct swipe at his "meddling" in the progressive takeover of the nation.  Jennifer is if anything, a fantastic team player.

Now that Granholm is officially media, like Palin and Levin and Limbaugh, she feels empowered to chime in what she thinks about these people.

So can I, Jen:)  Back to translating...

"It's that breed of real toxic-spewers who are really damaging to our discourse. I'd be embarrassed to have my mom or dad listen to them."

Notice she said "breed." As if understanding of freedom and liberty and the enlightened foundation of this nation contitutes some sort of strange breed of people she cannot fathom.  It doesn't take deep thought to be a progressive/liberal, on the other hand, it takes an open mind and love of nature and humanity to be a constitutional conservative.  If being a constitutional conservative is a vile "breed" that needs to be rubbed out of public discourse, what does that make Jennifer Granholm?

Notice she thinks she has the power to control what her parents listen to.  Control is a tendency of progressives and liberals.  She said she would be embarrassed to "have" her parents listen to constitutional conservatives.  Are her parents still in Canada?  Maybe they do listen, has she asked them?  

Control and describing people who have a certain love of country as a "breed," are some of the reasons Jennifer Granholm reads what she does and who she is ideologically.  Socialists, progressivists, National Socialists, Communists, Marxists, Fascists, are all about control, concern for people's thoughts, their individuality, and setting people against one another.
