“Liberals”, like all collectivists, are the worst kind of pragmatists.
Anything is justifiable in the pursuit of their goals.

"...Sarah Palinself-made woman, and governor of Alaskais being reduced by the left to a hickish, white trash mom of five..." That is exactly what the liberal elites think of most of the county. Obama's comments to the San Fransisco liberals about bitter people clinging to their guns and religion is the epitome of such liberal elitism. That Palin is sharp, successful politically and is resonating with much of the country makes liberals cringe.

I love how he slides on in after checking to make sure which direction the current’s running, and not unsurprisingly, in an opposite direction than those who he's co-authored books with. Opportunism certainly holds no bounds by party affiliation, but hey, least he's made the right associations in this article, vs others who simply stated that Palin was picked because she's a woman, and holds no other qualifications.

CNN has really changed their tune today. Methinks they got a memo from their legal department.

Not this week, perhapsbut soon there will be a backlash against all this creepiness. Just watch...And I, for one, cannot wait to see it. I am frankly getting sick of the "Palinization" -- anyone who objectively looks at the woman, her leadership record (SHE HAS ONE!!!) and her convictions will quickly see that what the media is doing is sick and wrong.
I am so waiting for the backlash...

They couldn’t have gotten worse - have they gotten better?

Why does the left and liberal media, in McCarthyite fashion, now seek to destroy rather than just oppose these public servants?
It's all in
Saul Alinsky's handbook - check out #13! The highlights are mine.
ALINSKY's RULES FOR RADICALS
"Personalize it"
Saul Alinsky's rules of power tactics, excerpted from his 1971 book "Rules for Radicals: A Practical Primer for Realistic Radicals"
- Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have.
- Never go outside the experience of your people.
- Whenever possible go outside the experience of the enemy.
- Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules.
- Ridicule is man's most potent weapon.
- A good tactic is one that your people enjoy.
- A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.
- Keep the pressure on.
- The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.
- Maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.
- If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will break through into its counterside.
- The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.
- Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.
Apparently all libs play by these rules now, not just the Clintons.
More Saul Alinsky and Hillary Clinton thesis here.
