From the very first moment that John McCain's selection of Sarah Palin for his Republican running mate was announced, the MSNBC news network was engaged in a deliberate attempt to smear the Alaska governor, according to Fox News host Bill O'Reilly.

During Friday night's edition of "The O'Reilly Factor," the Fox anchor displayed MSNBC's "breaking news" graphic, which ran the message, "How many houses does Palin add to the Republican ticket?"

The Keith Olbermann Tingler Network is irrelevant.

sorry dems, you can’t recycle your Romney attack lines to use against someone whose spouse is a union worker who makes $46,000 a year!

Of course they did. They are officially the Obama News Network. Their prime time has been taken over by a crazy man name Olbermann.

Fat ass Moore was interviewed by Olbermann on Friday. Moore proudly proclaimed that there must be a god in heaven because Gustav was about to devastate the Southeast.

While any REAL red-blooded American detests the filthy left, it became clear, right from the moment it happened, that McCain checkmated Obama. And the libs know it. So, in their normal fashion, all they can do is attempt to smear, and degrade McCain’s choice. The really amusing part is that no matter how hard they try, they can’t do it. They certainly cannot compare Obama to McCain and not show their Marxist/Stalinist side. So they must work on his VP choice....and they will fail.

Just like they are going to fail in November.

O’Reilly could ask some hard questions too about Obama: Rezko, Wright, Sinclair, Ayer and ask if these questions compare to the ones ask by NBC.

Yep, I must say when I heard about Sarah Palin, the first thing I wondered is how many houses she owns. I want to know how many houses this adds to the ticket. (sarcasm)

Note: The slogan was originally posted to FR by Renfield. Islander7 created the graphic. I've merely taken the initiative in publicizing it. It's so good, it may well be the "Sore/Loserman" of the 2008 election.

Wanna play this game? How many houses does Kennedy have? How many houses does Kerry have? How many houses does Jay Rockefeller have? How many houses does the chairman of NBC have? How many houses does the chairman and CEO of General Electric have?

Besides their condos in New York City don’t all the principals at MSNBC also have a summer dacha in the Keralian peninsula?

I saw that

surely everyone In the country now knows that NBC and MSNBC are and have been for obama since the start of all this

What gets me is that the Libs want to close FOX because they say they are biased, now with MSNBC AND NBC being so biased it is obvious that the libs want to close anyone who reports not close anyone who is biased

Well, they must have had at least 30 people watching them that night. Probably more people have viewed it on this website than their viewership.

McCain should reply back that one of his real estate deals is a sheet metal shack in Kenya.

The Dems will have NO trouble , through surrogates, reminding the electorate of the nature of the evangelical
Assembly of God church Palin has belonged to for years.
They will see this as completely fair, since Obama was linked to Reverend Wright , to his great detriment, and the association continues to get air-time and face-time unto this day. BOTH churches will be adjudged to be “radical”, TOO radical for the American mainstream, but Obama has already “disowned” Wright and his church of 20 years, while Palin would NEVER disown her church. That is the connection that they will play up, that equivalence. Besides that, the only thing that could hurt the McCain/Palin ticket is how they could characterize her Pro-Life stance. I have already heard it distorted along with her “anti-Gay-Marriage” stance. They want to keep BOTH these positions looking extreme, when I know that Palin has gay friends and intervened on behalf of Alaska’s gay community as regards keeping their benefits going. IF she is as rigid as they are making her out to be, thought, with her anti-abortion stance (NO exceptions, INCLUDING rape or incest, and what will be characterized as an active and relentless project of overturning Roe V. Wade, then, the Dems will have a field day with that, because even if the latter could be seen to be a majority viewpoint, the former is really a fringe/extreme position. THere OUGHT to be some obvious exceptions to abortion, and rape and incest are certainly among them. IF she turns out to be just that rigid, then she will look like she’s trying to impose her own sense of morality on others, without hearing them or understanding them.She serves already as a shining example, through her Down’s infant , that she will abort under no circumstances.
Let her keep serving as that example, and not get sucked into another “more-heat-than-light” debate which will only make her look like an extremist , and help her ticket LOSE the few million votes that would have gone to Hillary. THey NEED those votes, without looking like they’re pandering or lying in order to get them. Like I saId, I am not sure what her real position is, I just hope it’s not as rigid as I’ve heard, as it will hurt the ticket. And I AM pro-life....I would just make exceptions for rape and incest, even granting that there may be cases where a woman engaged in consensual sex might even cry “RAPE!” in a double-whammy both to have a lucrative day in court, AND to fit into the “exceptions” of a new day w/o Roe V. Wade.
