Talk about not getting it. The whole point is that MY, a supposedly objective journalist, was coordinating with other journalists to push a "line" about their ideological opponents with no intent to be balanced or show the other side. The point is not what these guys said, we all knew that they are left-wing propagandists to begin with, but that they were coordinating their efforts to shape national perception, something which is an egregious habit for "objective" journalists to engage in and something they swore up and down they weren't doing.<br /><br />"More to the point, is there anything inaccurate about it? Is there a human being with a pulse who would deny the fact that McCain chose Palin to help him politically, rather than for her governing expertise?"<br /><br />Oh, what a load of crap. Being a typical left wing moonbat, you whole defense of a subjective point of view being presented as objective truth is, "But it *IS* the truth!" <br /><br />If the mainstream media was right-wing biased and had coordinated to get McCain elected by coordinating efforts to expose Obama an a Marxist, would you accept conservatives defending it on the basis of, "But it's true!"? And don't bald-face lie and tell me you would. Reporters are their to report what's going on, not decide which of different opinions is the factual one.<br /><br />And your arrogance astounds me. The idiotic falsehood that Palin had no governing expertise is well debunked, yet since you and other liberal twits still believe it's true, then by God, it must be true!<br /><br />The fact is McCain choose her for BOTH, despite MY's ignorant comment to the contrary. If you can pick someone who can do the job AND help you politically, you do it, DUH! MY's whole posture that Palin could ONLY have been picked for political reasons and that she is not actually "qualified" for the job is condescending, insulting and a typical scumbag leftist smear. So no wonder you agree with it! <br /><br />And I suppose Obamas pick of Reid was not to pander to white voters and try to make his radical ticket look more moderate? Reid is a schmuck who even his Democratic colleagues in congress didn't take seriously. The fact that anyone thinks Reid has any ability to help govern is sad. Obama knew that his dirty tricks and sneaky tactics were going to get him elected, so he had nothing to lose. Too bad he could not have at least picked a VP with a freaking brain.<br /><br />And Klein and co need to shut up. The statements in the e-mail are straight forward, unambiguous and in your face. The idiotic claims that somehow they are out of context and that releasing every single Journolist email would vindicate them is an insult. And of course, none of these liars have done so.

But I'm a former leftist, and have been around the Left's contempt for free speech and adolescent bullying my whole life. The big story to me would have been if there had been nothing on this journolist. Actually, the bigger story is that so many conservatives are surprised by any of this. Surprising and sad.rrpjrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17415013508149477243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-71463340811914115072010-07-22T08:31:14.175-04:002010-07-22T08:31:14.175-04:00About this topic - this is the usual for these clo...About this topic - this is the usual for these clowns. Deny, deny, deny - lie, whatever it takes. Then, when they're caught with their pants down (figuratively speaking, of course).....not so much. More of the clam up (like the prior post says). Gee, predictable.<br /><br />Now - about your video of the day: AWESOME!!! I really appreciate the clip! I was asleep during the '80s, politically - just trying to get my degree and get ahead. This is so refreshing.....clocks the question-giver, the opponent, and the issue - all with humor! Even Mondale was laughing!!! <br /><br />I wish that we could have a leader like him again, and that we had such civil debate in the political public square. That Mondale laughed at the witty answer shows that he was able to debate, to appreciate the opponent he was facing, and treat him as a person - not an enemy target to be destroyed. Can we re-gain that? With the class-warfare, race-baiting dividers reigning today, no. With them out of power, perhaps.
