Absolutely. In fact, here are 8 Reasons Sarah Palin is More Qualified than Barack Obama[^].
My latest C# extension method: public static bool In<T>(this T value, params T[] values) { return values.Any(v => v.Equals(value)); } Example: bool valid = answer.In("Yes", "No", "Dunno");
It's sadly becoming clear to me that no-one hates the idea of women running for high office more than white liberals, except black liberals. I only read your first three points. The first is a lie, as proved by the Alaska voting records; the second is indeed a flip-flop, but anyone who supports Obama - who imitates a slinky going down stairs in the way his positions change - really can't speak very loudly to this point without being hoist by his own petard, and the third capitalizes on a personal matter in exactly the way I have come to expect from the woman-hating left.

Neither of the above. The Dem's aren't terrified of Palin. She's a cypher. Selected because of her gender and her family values ideology. And while it's perfectly reasonable for the Dem's to generate news that will distract from the R's convention(just as McCain timed his vp choice announcement to distract from the Democratic convention), the news stories about Palin are standard fare. The press did with Palin exactly what it always does with public figures.

Suuure they are. When was the last time Obama was taken to task for being a bad father because he's putting the kids in the limelight? Where's the breathless report on Michele's failure to obtain a fishing license when she was a teenager?

Yeah, those damn satirical pieces have that effect on some people. Lighten up Francis.

OK, but the "lie" was perpetrated by officials of the AIP.

It's a personal matter made public by Palin herself. Did you notice how they're capitalizing on it to push their pro-life agenda? Did you hear Obama's response?

Well, they're not really my points, but I do encourage you to read the rest of them, if you can first locate your sense of humor.

I haven't seen any breathless reports on Palin's failure to obtain a fishing license. What I did see was that McCain's own research team revealed that little detail.

So? The press is reflecting a double standard widely held in this country. And in a very extreme form by the 'family values' crowd that her selection was meant to pander to.

Yeah, I've seen the "I was just joking!" cover-up before. Why don't you try dressing up in bedsheets and burning a cross on some black's lawn for your next "satire."

And perpetrated by the likes of Olbermann and Blitzer without any fact-checking at all, until it's finally quoted by the bottom of the regurgitation chain here in SB.

I noticed that they were forced to bring it up to defend themselves against accusation starting in the Daily Kos and ending up on the liberal news channels that her youngest child was actually her daughters.
Al Beback wrote:

No, but I've heard Mika Brzezinski's disgust with the liberal's savaging of Palin and she is an unabashed liberal.

LOL!! Are you just being outrageous, or do you really believe that? Either way that is some seriously pathetic whining. :rolleyes: Oh, and thanks for the grin. I did find some humor in your humorless attempt to respond to a humor piece. :)

Neither, it is an observed fact after watching the cable news channels, not a belief. And one that surprised the hell out of me.

Actually, it isn't(at best you drew some very suspect opinions from watching a little TV). Not that a few talking heads are in any way represenative of liberal whites or liberal blacks.

Oh, you misunderstand - just because it's humor doesn't mean that there isn't a solid kernel of truth behind it. And your tortured attempt to cast this as misogeny is nothing if not pathetically laughable. Especially coming from someone who whines whenever a Democrat cries sexism or racism. Sorry, but your "outrage" is simply not believable.

Make up your mind. You're beginning to sound like Microsoft with it's double denials - "there's nothing wrong, and we changed the code last week, anyway."

Either you know that is an outright lie or you are demonstrating that you have the brains of roadkill; the memory of an amoeba; and the attention span of a pubic crab.
