Hell's Snowballs on Steroids: Mika Knocks 'Liberal Elite' Palin Critics
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 09/08/2008 7:30:14 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Thanks to Sarah Palin, the culture war has now become a civil war—on the left. Mika Brzezinski bravely opened a new front in the conflict during today's Morning Joe, repeatedly going after two women MSMers for their column suggesting Palin is taking the working-mom thing too far. And, mirabile dictu, Mika even admitted to sensing MSM unfairness to Republicans.

Good catch on Willie’s body language. You’re right. He offered up a feeble excuse for Shipman’s column, claiming she was just celebrating Palin’s achievements. Baloney!

They aren’t seeing the light about Palin, they just know that people are seing them for what they are and they are not helping the messiah.

All they have done is show how their small, biased, and BS driven media makes them not worthy of anyone’s time.

Frankly they really look like moonbats to normal people.

Well, obviously it came from the black soul of some “gentle, tolerant liberal” but I want to know where the OP found it, in context.

The OP seems to have vanished.

So, who’s the best Fox talking head to send it to, ya think?

Cavuto?
Hume?

I think you are reading too much into the graphic.

I see it as a representation of the Liberals targeting Sarah, the baby and her family with their vicious and filthy comments and invective with the intent of destroying her candidacy.

I do not see it as calling for the murder of anyone.

That is one aspect of what makes America great - we are free to make our own judgements.

Then again, it’s not all asteroid-size shiny copper and stainless steel widgets... there must be a lot of software in that project!

Therefore, who the hell knows WHAT will happen when they fire it up.

Maybe, everyones’ Windows Vista will all of a sudden start working properly! Now THAT’S a black-hole-Higgs-boson effect I could be proud of!

Full disclosure: I can make fun of codewarriors ‘cause I am one.

If I were Biden, I’d stay clear of Fort Marcy Park.

Any possibility that Biden can have a..ahem...”heart attack” which would open the door for Hillary reemergence or do you think Barack will sail this ship solo right to the bottom of the sea?

I think the Hillary has decided to cut her losses for this election and just line herself up for next election. If that bails out I suspect she'll run for a governor's slot in NY next time.

Brzezinski realizes how much the Palin Derangement Syndrome being exhibited by the media is energizing the GOP base, and she is telling the Palin-bashers: "You're not helping!"

Exactly. She's joined the chorus of Cokie Roberts, Geraldine Ferraro and Susan Estrich warning to beware of unsafe waters but they're not listening much to my delight.

Excellent. And excellent observation about a civil war among the Left. That would be most welcome, and a radical eye-opener for many on the Left as they finally realize the ideology that truly drives many of their ranks. Rock on, Mika.

Include Rick Sanchez in that. His show on Sunday night should be considered an in kind contribution to the Obama campaign.

The other night on H&C, Susan Estrich said she sat down with her son to watch the RNC, specifically I believe she said McCain’s speech. She said after the speech she watched MSNBC to see what their commentators would say. She said sh was so disgusted by their commentary she turn it off.

Wow!

If you look at Mika as the political “canary in the coalmine” and these contrived, knee-jerk slaps at Palin are having a backfire effect even on a liberal Democrat like her, then expect the McCain/Palin surge to continue to expand every time the Democrats and their minions mount another sleazy attack on Palin.

This is very good news indeed.
Palin is invulnerable, and the Democrats’ heads are exploding in rage.

And the fading Obama sits there with Biden, lol!

FRegards,
LH

WOW! What a turn around for Mika, Carter's fellow traveler Brzezinski’s daughter. Think the changing anchor chairs at MSNBC had something to do with it?
