I have seen the news blackout tactic used against the Tea Party. We had 5 thousand show up for a rally for the Tea Party Express on a Friday night. Not one word about the event was printed in the papers or on the broadcast news. It was like the event never happened.

We must face a fact of life: The State Owned Media, or what Sarah Palin refers to as the Lame Stream Media, is part of what I call Big Government America.

This tactic is an escalation of what we have seen before where certain important details are omitted from a news story in order to slant it against those who are in opposition to Big Government America.

Let them boycott Sarah Palin! Who gives a crap about that rag the Washington Post?

All they report are lies and insults about Sarah and her family anyway. The Post would be doing their readers a favor by not telling lies about the Palins anymore.

Will they cover the story if someone shoots Palin, which is what many of them seem to wish for?

Shouldn’t the Washington Post get back to defrauding the US government with it’s so-called “for profit” college education? For profit education is fine, but only so long as you’re not using US tax dollars.

I will campaign against any RINO who is shilling for Kaplan Inc and the Washington Post.

...ah... WAPO... ya know, she’s not REALLY a grizzly. Roll over and play dead for a month if you feel so inclined, but she’s still going to be there come March.

Actually, I like this boycott idea.

They should print ‘Palin Free’ bumper stickers to remind us not to think about her when stuck in traffic during our $4/gal commute to work when we may be tempted to contemplate which potential candidates offer real ‘alternatives’ to Green Suicide.

They should take all their ‘Che’ T-shirts in to get the new ‘Palin Free’ circle slash logo printed on the backside to remind us not to think about her silly talk of Freedom when we’re in big cities surrounded by communist romanticists.

They should make yard signs and billboards to remind us not to think about her as we travel the rest of the country wondering who most values these private properties and free expressions of political thought.

They should create the ‘Palin Free’ segment on the evening news to remind us not to think about her Freedom and growth oriented ideas while considering the miserable state of the nation under the current system of arrogantly benevolent dictatorship.

They should make ‘Palin Free’ documentaries for when we wish to more seriously remember not to think about her.

They should make ‘Palin Free’ commercials to remind us not to think about her when we’re fetching more beer and football snacks.

Michelle “the grizzly wife” Obama should lecture us about eating ‘Palin Free’ meals.

That will teach her.

And make MSM coverage more fairly balanced for Obama during Black History Month.

Then, come March the 1st, we can buy all their leftover gear, slap a big red ‘D’ on the end and start celebrating:

“PALIN FREED” month.

This is like a group of compulsive public masturbators suddenly deciding it’s wrong and announcing they’re not going to do it anymore.

Good luck, losers.

Maybe if they close their eyes and wish her away she will disappear.

This is the intellectual equivalent of hiding under the bed.

I read the column by Milbank.

This doesn’t look like a boycott by the Washington Post. It looks like a boycott by columnist Dana Milbank (who happens to write for the Washington Post).

I doubt that WaPo, in general, will stop writing about Palin come February 1, and I doubt that very many will join in Milbank’s boycott. However, we’ll find out soon enough. February is only nine days away.

I’d be interested in watching her give a response to the SOTU address. I don’t plan on watching it.
