CNN’s Jack Cafferty Returns to Palin Bashing After Three-Week Hiatus
Newsbusters ^ | October 22, 2008 | Matthew Balan

Posted on 10/22/2008 6:05:31 PM PDT by St. Louis Conservative

Regular CNN commentator Jack Cafferty may be "on the mend" after a three-week break for a "unanticipated encounter with a surgeon’s scalpel," as he put it, but he certainly hasn’t recovered from his Palin Derangement Syndrome. He launched a new attack on the Alaska governor on Wednesday’s Situation Room. This time, Cafferty returned to the issue of Trooper/Taser-gate and brought up two additional issues that came up this week -- how the RNC spent $150,000 on Palin for new clothing, make-up, and hair care for Palin, and how she used taxpayer’s money to pay for her children to travel with her to official functions. He then came to the following conclusion about the Republican vice-presidential candidate: "How do you present yourself as any kind of candidate of reform when the practices you employ put you in the very same category as every other two-bit, sleazy, opportunistic politician that has come before you?"

Cafferty then asked as his hourly question, "Should Sarah Palin reimburse Alaska taxpayers for her children’s travel and entertainment expenses?" Of course, when Cafferty read some of the viewer responses to this question, he lined up nothing but anti-Palin comments.

Who’s that jerk to tell a working mother what she can and can’t do? Seriously.

As for the clothing, so f-ing what? Does Jack pay for his own suits? I’m willing to believe he makes more as a talking douchebag than the Palins make combined with 5 children to support.

I love this tirade about her children’s travel expences. Not one peep from anyone from the lamestream about Hussein using taxpayer dollars to campaign in Kenya for two weeks for a marxist communist wannabe dictator.

But they are being fair and balanced aren’t they???

And what’s this about the clothes. Good Gawd, get a life dems.

If I recall correctly, Clinton took Chelsea and Hillary to Africa on one of the most expensive trips ever taken by a U.S. president. Don't remember anyone having a hissy fit over that.

Let me guess.....liver transplant, a la Mickey Mantle, from all his years of swill abuse. Phock him; hope he picked up some staph.

Jack is the meanest, nastiest, ugliest, jerk on all of TV. He is a no-talent, miserable a**hole. He is full of bile, venom, and hatred. Other than that he is a real nice putz.

I thought he was just drying out in some rehab place again. CNN is really scraping the bottom of the barrel these days.

Just how good is this jerk Cafferty with his fists?

That is, when he’s not using them on women.

Would really like to know.

Something has happened to cause the Communists in the MSM to become very pissed off about Governor Palin. I wonder what they know that they’re are not “sharing” with us. The “media” has been extremely brutal to Governor Palin today.

Would someone please remind me what Oprah’s mom spent on her wardrobe, that she refused to pay for? I’m guessing that she did not look as “hot” as Sarah Palin. This is sexism and it seems desperate.

How can we judge Palin’s wardrobe expenses without knowing how much the other candidates pay. It must be a huge effort to keep the candidates looking good at all of their appearances with travel in between. The public absolutely would not accept a candidate that dressed or looked less than first class.

Other expenses such as the airplanes and arena setups, plus advertising, dwarf clothing expenses.

I’ve stopped all Palin critics in their tracks simply by asking how she’s less qualified to be president than Obama.
