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...
This is exactly the case with those who are going to call her a
judgemental rightwing Christian zealot.
She doesn’t have to say a word, she just has to live her life, and others condemn themselves by comparison. However, they don’t see it that way - the wicked don’t like their consciences to be bothered, and are angered when they are.
Do you think Harry would be a Republican if he were alive now ? I say no doubt.
Semi-Steyn Ping.
It isn’t a long piece but it does have ZING !
On or off the Steyn Ping List? FReepmail me.
Cheers,

In my channel switching over the last couple of days I’ve caught Andrea Mitchell a few times and there is something not right with her. Earlier she would badger/ask questions of who ever she is talking to and it sounded like an Obama campain person asking the questions (no surprise)... but with a spaced out, attack style.
Last night after the speech she was definitely stunned and was probably spinning in her head the thoughts of “what the hell?!?!?!”
He'd be a Democrat giving speeches at Republican conventions.
Hate? Lady I wouldn't cro0ss the street to spit on you if you were on fire...not you or any of your colleagues. You people disgust normal patriotic Americans.
Other than the leftist moonbats, the ENTIRE NATION booed right along with the Pub delegates last night. It was a marvelous thing to watch, LOL!
I wish the R’s would get Zell Miller to speak again.
He’d have a blast with Palin.
Boomp!
With a stuned beeber.
Thanks for the ping.
she’s not been lobotomized??
If they sent a few reporters out to talk to real people they would know...
Wolfie Blitzer looked like a stunned mullet.
“With a stuned beeber.”
The mashed flat kind........
“...she is going to do the people’s work.”
Actually she said “...to SERVE the American people”
“Serve” being a word seldom used by elected officials these days; much less understood!
He’d have a blast with Palin.
Before last night I thought I'd never hear a better zinger than his "spit balls" line....to quote Ron White, "I was wrooooooong!"
Limbaugh will be off the charts today.
Should be interesting.
correct........tx.
Unlike Sen. Biden ... Ohh wait .... nevermind
