I just watched the most amazing bit of TV in decades - I cannot wait to see the YouTube version of it. Wolf Ditzer (aka Blitzer) was hosting Gloria Berger, Bill Bennet, Donna Brazille an John King (I believe) on The Situation Room and were discussing young Bristol Palin’s (Governor Palin’s oldest daughter) pregnancy and her plans to have the baby and marry the father. At the center of this discussion was Barack Obama’s call to keep the families (and these personal decisions) off limits. But what does CNN do? They air a woman reporter who ran to Alaska questioning the entire abstinence position of Governor Palin in light of her daughter’s pregnancy. It was pathetic.
Besides the Duh factor that abstinence works every time it is tried (pregnancies being proof of the opposite) Bill Bennet was rightfully outraged at CNN and Blitzer for bringing the Palin family’s personal issues into the debate like this. Bennett was hammering Blitzer who did not want to concede CNN crossed the line.
John King was looking just stunned and as if he was going to get sick. He wanted nothing to do with the muck raking by CNN.

If I actually watched that PIG WOLF, I would CALL and COMPLAIN!!
As much as it pains me to see a family in crisis, this subject is not - nor should it be - off limits.
I just turned off Fox because it wasn’t much better.
How Low can You Go???? CNN
That’s what I was afraid of. I think I will pop a couple of Tylenol PM’s and hit the pillow early. I can’t handle the cable new channels today because they will make me too angry. I am absolutely disgusted with the media. Whatever happened to responsible journalism?
Of course because the media thrives off of tabloid news, especially FOX.
Bennett blasted CNN’s coverage, and Blitzer tried to obfuscate.
new = news
Thanks for the report - since I cannot tolerate Blitzkrieg for one second.
Bill Bennett should be ashamed for associating himself with this muckraking group of lowlife slime.
Of course Obama is going to say this is off limits - while his hit squads go out and do the dirty work - very old tried and true Demonazi tactic.
Thanks for giving the correction.....
Please explain why it should be within limits????
I have to agree with you. Although I'd like to see them doing some investigations on Obama as well.
The key is now how to handle this attacks, handling the impact of the hurricanes, and stays on message at the same time.
I’ve got an “OFF LIMITS” sign on my property,feel free to show up,we’ll have a beer.
If all of these liberal pukes went after my wife and daughter like this, I would have to take matters into my own hands. I would slaughter them and let my Texas courts handle the rest. For the most part, this would be a clean eradication of vermin. CNN, MSNBC, Koskrud and DU would bear the brunt of my wrath. Selectively, they would reap what they have sown.
Way to go, Bill Bennett. This whole thing will backfire on them. There will be a significant portion of the PUMA faction who will get very angry at ‘their side’s’ handling of this. I hope they run, not walk, away from Obama/Biden and their thugs.
