Credit where it's due [Mark Steyn]
I would like to thank the US media for doing such a grand job this last week of lowering expectations by portraying Governor Palin - whoops, I mean Hick-Burg Mayor Palin - as a hillbilly know-nothing permapregnant ditz, half of whose 27 kids are the spawn of a stump-toothed uncle who hasn't worked since he was an extra in Deliverance.
How's that narrative holding up, geniuses? Almost as good as your "devoted husband John Edwards" routine?
I trust even now Maureen Dowd is working on a hilarious new column mocking proposed names for the Governor's first grandchild. Perhaps Richard Cohen can just take the week off and they can rerun his insightful analysis comparing the Palin nomination to Caligula making his horse a consul. Whereas we sophisticates all know that if McCain were as smart as Obama he'd have nominated a dead horse to be his consul. No wait...
Best line yet -
Oh, leftists are SO (f'n) SUPERIOR, aren't they?
They just aren't smart enough.
I watched Charlie Rose last night post speech. His round table of newsie experts was obviously impressed, even blown away by Sarah, most could not believe that people actually hate the media. Rose, the consummate elitist jerk, was incredulous. They hate us? HAHAHAHAHA
I would like to add my heartfelt thanks and congratulations to the drive by media for bringing the Conservative home, or is it, bringing the Republicans home — Oh well, we’re back!!! With the Conservative woman of our dreams — And that’s all that matters
BWahahahahahaha!
I Love Steyn!
And that ignorance/arrogance is exactly why viewership and readership continues to decline at all Dinosaur media outlets...
BTTT
“Whereas we sophisticates all know that if McCain were as smart as Obama he’d have nominated a dead horse to be his consul. No wait...”
ohhhhhh Biden I hear them calling you.
I loved, loved, loved, LOVED how Thompson, Rudy and Gov. Palin all attacked the media! It’s about stinking time! The media is not used to Republicans who actually FIGHT BACK!!
All they could say was immediately point out that she didn’t write her speech-pathetic how guys like Mort Kondracke talk to their lib buddies from the Obama campaign, get their orders and spread their propaganda. These people are the scum of the earth.
Michael ... come back. Don’t you want to be covering this with daily writing? Please, please, please! I’ll buy you beer, clean your house, I’ll ... well, I won’t do that ... but please come back.
The O is style over substance. His styrofoam pedestal proved that.
Sarah Palin knocked the styrofoam pedestal out from under The O last evening.
And she did it with style and substance .... and a smile.
and Sarah is not going to Washington to court the high opinion of the media elite, she is going to do the people’s work..........I LOVE her!
I watched The Speech on PBS last night (I don’t have cable). After the speech, Lehrer (yuck) went to Gwen Ifill on the floor to get her thoughts. Her facial features said it all - she looked like she’d been sucking lemons and she immediately used the phrase ‘belittling Obama’ in reference to Sarah’s comments. She’s the moderator for the VP debate so it’s going to be one heck of a night.
After GOV Palin’s speech, when coverage cut over to the CNN talking heads, Wolfie Blitzer looked like a stunned mullet.
Too funny!
Does anybody have any knowledge of how to put together a good slide video?
I tried with this little program I have. It looked ok on my computer but after loading it onto you tube it came out all blurry.
I left it up even if it doesn’t look as good as I’d like. If you want to check it out its called “The media attacked Sarah Palin - The media lost”
I made it to fit my song “I’m Still Around”

It sure could use some help if anybody knows how to do it, or if you know of a free program I could use to redo it.
Thanks
yeah eyeCandy Crowley knows what the rest of America is like
