Hit job on Sarah Palin, CNN

The media keeps going after Sarah Palin and it is nauseating. Did anyone see the hit job CNN tried to do last night on Sarah Palin? Is the only person they could find to trash her a guy who looks like they had to clean up and take his vodka away from to talk nasty about her? The ex-mayor of Wasilla who Sarah Palin beat not just one, but twice? Duh. Do you expect him to say something nice about her? He tried to sound like he was being non-biased but gee, give me a break, my 5 year old could see through that (and did have a comment about the big things under his eyes... try explaining to a 5 year old why someone carries "bags" under their eyes, ha ha).

They tried to make it "balanced" by putting on some of her family. I bet if they'd known what was going to be done they wouldn't have participated. How much of what they said that was good got cut.

I learned last night how things can be twisted, a lesson I hadn't learned yet. I haven't been involved until this election and have had my news spoon-fed by the press in sound bites. No more.

It was amazing how just the right tone of voice, just the phrasing of the comments and questions by the commentator showed their bias and changed the meaning of answers and thoughts. Wow, what a lesson I learned last night!

I'll be sticking with Fox News from now on.

Tell 'em like it is Rudy Giuliani!

The press is being sexist. Period. What I can't quite figure out is are they leading the Democratic Party or is the Democratic Party giving them marching orders? Or am I being silly thinking there's a distinction?

Mayor Rudy Giuliani On CBS' "Early Show"

"Barack Obama has never governed a city, never governed a state, never governed an agency, never run a military unit, never run anything. Sarah Palin has been a mayor. She's been a governor. She has a record of reform. She has a record of leadership. She's run a budget." -- Mayor Rudy Giuliani

Mayor Rudy Giuliani: "Barack Obama has never governed a city, never governed a state, never governed an agency, never run a military unit, never run anything. Sarah Palin has been a mayor. She's been a governor. She has a record of reform. She has a record of leadership. She's run a budget. So, why are all these questions for her? Has anybody ever asked Barack Obama, can you bring up your two kids and be president of the United States? They are asking 'can she be vice president and be a mother?' Come on."

CBS' Maggie Rodriguez: "So you're saying you have no doubt and mothers shouldn't either, that she can do it?

Mayor Giuliani: "Where are the feminists? I mean is it just the early feminist groups? Where are they?"

Rodriguez: "I think they are fair questions. It's a lot to judge."

Mayor Giuliani: "They are questions. I don't know if they're fair questions. You can ask any question you want, then to designate it as a fair question. You know, can you be a mother and be a vice president? We've had a lot of fathers run for president and no one has ever asked them, 'can you be a father and be president?' Don't tell me there isn't a difference there."
