Holy Cow!

Did CNN just commit a random act of journalism?

I’ll put it down to chance.

It used to be that when you wanted to sling mud at someone whose politics you didn't agree with -- chiefly as a way of making them look bad and yourself look good by comparison -- you'd try to dig up dirt, find a skeleton in a closet or challenge the person's integrity.

Or, in the case of CNN, you'd just call your contact in the DemocRAT Party and see what they had to dish for that day.

Sarah is a lot smarter than the majority of the MSM.

And she is a whole lot smarter than Dorkbama.

No, I’m not even coming close to kidding.

I think its funny how a bunch of ‘concerned’ posters on the threads about it are now literally to the LEFT of CNN.

“... standing barefoot on his new pet dog — a black labrador oddly named Jill Hadassah — so he could reach the kitchen sink and wash his dish....”
**************************************************************************************************

Well, for a CNN Online Opinion page article written by a Washington Post writer, this is a very reasonable document. But, because it is CNN, I have to be picky and find some minor thing to gripe about. “Jill Hadassah” is not a particularly odd name (even for a service dog) — Hadassah was Queen Esther’s birth name as many devout Christians and Jews will remember.

OK, now that I have my obligatory “dig” in, props to Ruben Navarrette for a well written piece.

Wow, nice catch 2DV. Someone at CNN defending Palin. Even if it is in the opinion column.

Nice opinion piece. What's so sad is that this piece naturally had to come with the disclaimer:
Ruben Navarrette is a CNN contributor and a nationally syndicated columnist with the Washington Post Writers Group.
The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of the author.
What a shame that the CNN editorial board lacks the integrity to put something like this under their own name and own it.

Picking on a Downs Syndrome child is a new low for liberals. They now look up to the worms that will refuse to eat their carcass. And wish that they were as enlightened as the worms.
