This I know. Because the Liberal Media tells me so. Seriously, why does the media and the Democrats and the left hate Sarah Palin so much? Why have they decided she has to be destroyed?
And so it goes. Andrew Sullivan thinks Sarah Palin faked her pregnancy with Trig. Because you know, it just makes sense. And he generally spends an inordinate amount of time wanting the MSM to stalk Sarah Palin and her family. Amazingly, The Atlantic Monthly actually subsidized Andrew Sullivan's creepy, stalkerish obsessions because he has a perma-link on Drudge's main page, which is apparently worth it's weight in bad journalism and muckracking, as far as Atlantic Monthly is concerned.
Remember Naomi Wolf, one-time adviser of how to be an Alpha-Male to Shoulda-Coulda-Woulda been president Al Gore? Well, she warned us of a future brown-shirted Palin Police State, in which the Evita-style dictator--Supreme Leader Palin--was having liberals rounded up and put in camps while passing Bibles out everywhere.
Even the respected Steven D. Levitt, he of Freakonomics fame, said that Sarah Palin must have been considering abortion, since she got an amniocentesis! Wowsers. And that only scratches the surface of it. She believes dinosaurs and man roamed the planet at the same time. She advocated replacing science classes with Creationism in schools. She tried to have books banned or burned. And it goes on and on.
So why do they hate her so much? My friends, they hate her so much because as an average-joe, hockey-mom, former pageant contestant and current Alaskan redneck, she represents you and me. If you eat fast food or shop at Wal-Mart, she does.
It just seems strange to me, the Palin hate. But I guess they hated Reagan. That hate any conservative that so profoundly represents Red State america that she stops to buy diapers at a Wal-Mart. Not the only place in the world to buy diapers, BTW.
Seriously, they are. Which is a good thing. Using a modern secular myth to justify looting the private sector and punishing the tax payer is reprehensible, and the more people who wake up to the same, the better.
The Jawa Report has a breakdown on how Axelrod and the Obama campaign are trying to make fake grassroots campaigns to smear Sarah Palin, while, at the same time, leaving a trail of smoking guns everywhere. No wonder the left like's to tell us they are the smartest and most ethical folks out there!
The Journal of Feminist Insight blog has a breakdown of softballs Charlie Gibson tossed Obama vs. the prosecutorial nature of his questions for Palin. Pretty damning stuff, indeed. For Obama: How does it feel to win? For Palin: Do you have enough qualifications for the job your seeking? And on and on and on.
Not classy, Charlie.
Apparently to folks of the left, the ends will always justify the means. Ruin people, lie, cheat, steal, anything short of murder (and, hmm, who knows, maybe that, too) is okay if it means you get universal healthcare and progressive taxation. Learning that, on the left, the end always justifies the means is why I'm not a liberal today.
And so it goes.
