Com’on, what can you expect from “The Atlantic”? One of the snobbiest magazines in the history of America.

The last president its staff liked was Abraham Lincoln. Good choice, that. But for decades, “The Atlantic” has been a haven for lefties from all over the country who spend most of their days staring at their navels.

Whiners and hand wringers - all of’em.

Hmmm... Sarah sounds pretty bad for somebody with an 80% approval rating.

Will someone please vet Anne Kilkenny to see what political candidates she’s donated to?

From Google:

Anne Kilkenny describes herself as a 22-year Mat-Su resident, middle-aged housewife and at-home mom with a child in middle school and a retired, disabled spouse. She comes from a long line of independent-minded, public-spirited people and has been involved in education advocacy and legislative analysis for local PTAs. Prior to parenthood, she worked in the Alaska's seafood industry. She has a Social Science BA from the University of California, Berkeley

Passages bolded by me.

Sarah Palin scares the c%@p out of the left. They’re now foaming at the mouth in their frenzy to find or manufacture anything that might possibly stick.

I read that Susan Estrich said this morning that 6,000,000 Hillary supporters were in play. So Palin has energized the pubbie base and bought a good portion of the dem base into play. Their desperation is understandable.

“Just melt her down and you’ll reveal a lump of lead as cold as steel...here...where a woman’s heart should be!”

That is absolutely my favorite line of the play/movie.

I should have known you would know that line! LOL!

I will counter this B.S. with my own personal story:
Our daughter lives in Eagle River near Wasilla. Our daughter is a super-achiever who is blond, beautiful, outdoors-oriented, hard-nosed, direct, blunt and not easily-convinced even when there are undisputed facts presented to her. Like Sarah Palin she is professional and a driven leader. Our daughter was branch manager of a regional bank that served the communities of Wasilla and Palmer and participated in many meetings where she and Sarah Palin represented their respective interests. Our daughter has nothing but praise for Sarah Palin and respects her for her accomplishments. I personally think they are very much alike, except that our daughter is a hard-core vegetarian.

This is so perfect since Craig Ferguson has already dubbed Gov. Palin a "Naughty Librarian" (in a good way)!

“Consider the source” apparently doesn’t extend to this discussion, as long as it fits someone’s agenda.

Sarah Palin is the US’s answer to Margaret Thatcher!

Yes, that's it. Maggie Thatcher, daughter of a greengrocer they used to call her. Protector of Western Civilization. America's own Maggie Thatcher. I love it.

It’s actually more from the Washington Independent, which appears ANYTHING BUT (it appears to be left-wing as it gets,) and Sullivan is just quoting it because he’s fully in Obama’s pocket now.

He has put the gay issue ahead of everything else he EVER claimed to believe in when he was one of the most famous conservative commentators (and was usually more coherent.)

If you're sick of all this media BS, you can give it back to them in spades by volunteering at your local McCain/Palin office or online.

Make a leftwing reporter cry.
