Liberal media hypocrisy: Ok to mock Palin, wrong to mock Boxer's hair
The Examiner ^ | June 13, 2010 | Devonia Smith

Left wing Media boobs are pushing their hypocritical agenda again. This time they are busy criticizing Carly Fiorina for her joke about Barbara Boxer's hair - the same media that recently spent days mocking Sarah Palin about whether she had a breast enlargement. Are both an example of left-wing media bias gotcha journalism targeting conservatives?

In a "Girls will be girls, rivals will be rivals" moment, Carly Fiorina zinged Barbara Boxer's hair - it was caught on mike. No doubt Barbara Boxer is seething but the Boxer team is not demanding an apology. It happened when the California Republican Senate nominee, Fiorina, was chatting about all things political, including her rival Boxer, the Democrat, who Fiorina hopes to soundly defeat in the November, 2010 election.

Fiorina has been labeled by the left as "a mean girl, catty, tart and unpleasant" and asked repeatedly if she intends to apologize. Where are the calls for apology for unending personal mockery about Palin - everything from her hair, the glasses she wears, her heels, her religion, her intelligence, her family, the way she talks to most recently her boobs? Sarah has been called a saint and a sinner and a dim-wit.

Yet one off the cuff remark about Boxer's hair and Carley is crucified. Obviously, Palin is not a left wing media darling and Boxer is.

Spending any time on boob or hair is the wrong message for the media to target because while mainstream media is distracted, mainstream Americans are not.Mainstream Americans have their eyes on Elections 2010 and 2012 and in the twinkle of an eye, when mainstream media is playing at "gotcha journalism", they'll miss be asking "What happened?" at the voting booths that stripped away the power of the left wing.

In the meantime, anyone think Barbara Boxer has had a boob job - and would it help if she did?

About Boxer's hair problems: In Dallas, there are some excellent hairstylists who could do something to improve the look of Barbara Boxer's dry, frizzed hair - possibly just for the positive publicity. The Dallas sun is brutal, never discriminating on basis of political agendas. As a result, Dallas hairstylists know all of the tricks in the trade to combat it's effect. One Dallas hairstylist suggested Barbara could use a trim and conditioners for those split ends.

Their sexism and racism are usually a one-way street, except for Alvin Greene.

The Libtards can defend questions at to whether Palin’s boobs are real, but I wonder how the left would respond if we asked the same question about Michele Obama’s hooters?

Somehow, saying anything about Palin is fair play - however asking any question at all, even the exact same question about any Libtard is ‘off limits’.

It's anyone "off the plantation". Greene isn't an exception, he's an example -- an "uppity" black man who ran against (and won!) the designated party hack.
