The repug msm can lie all they want. We all know they are working for the repugs. This is why the repug msm is going down the tubes and rightfully so.

Thank God for the internet.

Oh please. Any woman who can kill for fun and profit and then use this tool isn’t no shrinking violet.

Also this woman gave a speech after her water broke then traveled 10+ hours while in labor isn’t no frilly broad.

Oh give the white woman more privileges and passes, this is not fair!

>Gov. Palin denied the request, but not completely

Meanwhile, the Police chief Palin hand picked, after she fired his predesessor, was making rape victims pay for their own rape examinations. Later, she claimed the REAL reason she fire the states budget director because he was seeking federal money for victims of rape.

See a pattern here? “Rape Tax” Sarah fits in perfectly with you misogynist “blame women first” crowd..

Come on now you bunch of whiners.
If journalist admit to Howie that they are censoring they’re coverage of Palin, I’m just saying what’s the worse that can happen? They just don’t want to loose out on more of that BarBQue in Sedona.

I anticipate that the day Bristol reaches legal majority, she will be doing a LOT of interviews telling the world that she was forced to have this child and get married. We have not hear much out of her mouth yet.
Then again, she could be another right-wing Stepford wife type. But I hope not. I would like to know if it was her idea to keep the kid. Doubtful.

A National MEDIA that self censors is supposed to be believable?

Ahhh , what’s a little shotgun wedding and loveless marriage to further along an empty headed mom’s political career ……?

When did a shot-gun wedding stop being embarrassing and start being something wonderful to look forward to.

I think if they push the wedding, it too will backfire on them. Right now most people are not paying attention to the fact that Palin has a very pregnant teenage daughter. Pushing the wedding will put it front and center.

In today’s Washington Post, Howard Kurtz writes that in response, “some journalists say privately they are censoring their comments about Palin to avoid looking like they’re piling on.”

So, in other words, the Press is doing exactly what the right wingers intended by criticizing them.

I find it hard to believe that the people who own the corporations who own our MSM really think it’s a good idea to have John McCain as our president. I know they are Republicans but can’t they see what’s best for this country?

I wonder if they privately hold back on Obama? The answer is no. They are all in the tank for the reichwingnut extremists.

My mistake — Gordon Brown is British, but not English. He’s a Scot, isn’t he?

Ah, well, I’m still qualified to be vice-president, right? After all, I live in California, and we can see Mexico from the border.

The two most embarrassing answers in the Couric interview were left out?? Why?

And how can they possibly be any more embarrassing than what CBS have showed already? Did she refer to Gordon Brown as the king of England?

Wow. You must think highly of Gov. Palin if you believe she even knows that Gordon Brown is English.

Gotta wonder if Ms Palin is going to limit her ‘gifts’ to her ‘grandchild’ to a ten percent increase.

Last year, the state of Alaska gave the Special Olympics $250,000. This year, the Alaska legislature requested $550,000 for Special Olympics, which would have constituted a 120 percent increase. It is typical, of course, for advocates to submit impossibly high budget requests, even during budget crunches, in the hopes of getting whatever they can. This is understood by anyone who has ever run an organization or prepared a budget that requires legislative or executive approval.

Gov. Palin denied the request, but not completely: She reduced it to a 10-percent raise, approving a gift of $275,000. A 10 percent raise during tough times is very good, as any employee in America would quickly attest. For most employees, a raise of 3 to 4 percent is a good raise.
