The late, great Jimmy Cannon was a master of the one-liner, especially when he wrote from the heart, as he did in his Christmas 1969 column titled, Holiday Wishes For The Losers.
Sit only gentle people at the tables of old waiters.
Root home every parlay that a hocked watch finances.

There are a lot of “conservative” females who are very jealous of Governor Palin. I can understand the Neanderthal-looking liberal females hating Governor Palin but these “conservative” women are acting just plain nuts. Sarah Palin is one of us.
The MSM are also accusing her of being racist.
Does anyone know how black Sarah Palin’s communication director Bill McAlister is - the media refer to him as “part black”...Is he as “part black” as Obama and if so why is he not called black like Obama?

Wrong spelling. Name is Bill McAllister
Sarah Palin is one of us.
And that is what burns their butts. You can see the 'conservative' female pundits & DC politicians were never very fond of 'us' anyway. They are just proving what we always knew and taking it out on Sarah Palin.
So, every time you hear someone trashing her just remember they are really trashing 'us'.
lol! great pic. my pic, in my brain, is more like two cats in a sack;)
Of course they are. What else do they have but that kind of crap? I guess it never occurred to them that everything about Obama and his 'friends/campaign' is racist including Colin Powell's endorsement.
The MSM are fast becoming irrelevant anyway.
God bless Sarah Palin. She did not deserve what has been dished out to her by the media and haters. If they don’t want to vote for her fine. Just quit with the venom. It will backlash on those who have trashed her eventually.
To the contrary, they are more powerful with every passing day.
It’s disgusting how they just make things up and get printed as fact:

I found where Bill McAllister, Sarah’s communication director, calls himself an African/American. So how come he’s not considered the same as Obama who has a while mother. The MSM call McAllister a partial black yet they call Obama black? It’s all so bizarre. I give up.
Oh really? How many are cutting back staff in so-called news rooms?
I guess, to me, they are becoming irrelevant. I understand they think they are important but not anyone I know thinks they are.
This is quite true. The silly talk about the "dinosaur media" and the MSM's lack of power only demonstrates why Republicans are getting just flat out-campaigned. Most of the posts about Obama's campaign ridicule what has obviously been successful.
Someone with Obama's background would not have a chance if the citizenry actually new about it. Without the MSM cover-up there would be no Obama campaign. They are indeed King makers and have now thrown off any facade of impartiality and can run a coordinated campaign for their candidate unfettered by any "journalistic ethics".
The Republicans have failed pitifully at exposing Obama, with their candidate going from voicing his respect for his opponent to stridently beating dead horses. Joe the plumber could have been an add for months...their are plenty of "Joes" around.
Staff and subscriptions have ZERO to do with influence and the power of monopoly.
Since the MSM destroyed the 94 Conservatives in the 96 election, they have grown so powerful that not even the bully pulpit of the Presidency can beat them.
They have every avenue blocked save radio....which is limited to a very small sliver of Americans.
Republicans must sever all ties...give them no more credibility...no more pretense on the DNC's Sunday Shows, no more silly talk shows, comics, and especially SNL.
We must create our own media, or/and take theirs from them, destroy their credibility, their livelihoods, their private lives.
Just as they have done to us, with impunity for 40 years running.
Where has their influence wained? Staff numbers matter not, nor do ratings.
Their influence is enormous, they have a monopoly, they all work together for a single purpose.
This denial is killing us!
