With Barack Obama getting a rebuff on the world stage, losing a midterm election, and presiding over a floundering economy almost two years after implementing his stimulus policies, it may occur to some people now that electing a man with no executive, military, diplomatic, or private-sector experience at all might have been a teensy little mistake. How did the media let that slide? (Oh, come on, you know I know the answer!) Sarah Palin chatted with KWHL’s Bob and Mark Show in Anchorage today to discuss the re-release of John Ziegler’s documentary How Obama Got Elected and her own travelogue series, and underscored how important its lessons are for participatory democracy to work properly and elect effective representation. She tells Bob and Mark that the hagiographic coverage of Obama in 2007-8 is now “coming home to roost”:
"We know that Obama wasn’t vetted through the campaign, and now, you know, some things are coming home to roost, if you will, which is inexperience, his associations, and that ultimately harms our republic when a candidate isn’t — isn’t vetted by the media, that cornerstone of our democracy. So, you’re right, it’s not about me and whether you like my politics or not. You can push all that aside, and just pay attention to what that message is in this documentary, and that is that things have got to change for the better in the state of journalism. Otherwise, you know, it could be part of a demise of our democracy if that cornerstone erodes."
Here’s the video you mentioned but didn’t link:

I’m sure it was an accidental omission.
George Soros vetted Obama to the max.
He made one half way decent speech and the Media fell in love with him.
They have been sucking his butt ever since.
The media can’t be that stupid;someone must be paying them big money to “suck his butt.”
Poor Democrats...they have already vetted Palin more than any Republican in years...looks like they’ll have to go straight to outright lying.

24 Why isn't Barack Obama still a member of the Illinois bar and where are all of the relevant documents?
25 Why isn't Michelle Obama still a member of the Illinois bar, after only about four years of practice, and where are all of the relevant documents?
Anyone who cares about their country would be very concerned that a POTUS had hidden every scrap of information of his life that he possibly could.
The link they posted worked just fine for me.
Ultimately it was the responsibility of McCain and Palin’s campaign to do that vetting of the Kenyan. They failed to do it and they lost and I think that loss was fine by McCain. His staff was too busy vetting and attacking Palin to worry about McCain’s friend Obama.

McCain gave the election to Barry, who "would make a good president" and there is "nothing to fear from a Obama Presidency."
Who's turn is it next, Newt? Romney? HuckleBARRY Hound?
And McCain and the three above (along with Tokyo Rove and the rest of the "elites" in the GOP) are still working day and night to destroy Palin. LOL, she just gets stronger and more in the spotlight!
