Bring on the one on one debates. This media circus is getting old.

Allow me to put a couple of thoughts down about the media circus.

1 - Take a look at the past weeks worth of headers posted by Harry.
Take a look at the past weeks headlines from the MSM. Tell me what
you see. Cast yourself in the role of an objective citizen and
evaluate what, if any, points are being made about Governor Palin.
She's everything that liberals promote as being "liberated" including,
oddly, having actually made a choice with respect to aborting or not
aborting a baby.


The problem is, she is in favor of taking away a choice in that matter
for everyone else. She wants the law to force them all to make HER
choice.

They couldn't flat out say "she was wrong not to
abort a defective baby" (although a lot of diarists/commentators on
DailyKOS and Democratic Underground did make that point) so they had
to sidle up to it from different directions up to and including the
most despicable thing I've ever seen in politics - attacking a 17 year
old daughter of a candidate for office.


Having a baby at her age was just plain ASKING for trouble. She should
not have gotten pregnant. Abstinence!




But...she practiced abstinence!!!
