Observation of the Day
Sarah Palin wonders: Gee, where was the same curiosity the MSM is displaying about Christine O’Donnell during 2008? Barack Obama has still not released records all other presidents have made public and the MSM has shown a decided indifference in asking any questions. Which would be curious–except that in 2010, everyone knows that’s how the MSM rolls.
“Funny . . . That we are learning more about Christine O’Donnell and her college years, her teenage years, her financial dealings than anybody ever even bothered to ask about Barack Hussein Obama as a candidate and now as our president.” –Sarah Palin
The same Mainstream Media that exhibited a decided indifference about Barack Obama’s medical, university, college and other records has been busy digging into Christine O’Donnell’s years-old views on masturbation.
Palin: Why No Probe of Barack ‘Hussein’ Obama?
Former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin alleges that the media has a blatant double standard, shining intense scrutiny on GOP Senate nominee Christine O’Donnell while turning a blind eye to then-candidate Barack Obama’s personal history in the 2008 campaign.
During an interview with Fox News host Greta Van Susteren Wednesday night, Palin said: “Funny . . . That we are learning more about Christine O’Donnell and her college years, her teenage years, her financial dealings than anybody ever even bothered to ask about Barack Hussein Obama as a candidate and now as our president.”
There were no questions asked during the disgraceful Mainstream Media coverage of the 2008 election because the Media was too busy digging through dumpsters in Wasilla, Alaska, for dirt on the Republican VP nominee.
Oh, and attacking any sources which did ask inconvenient questions about the MSM’s Messiah.
Palin alludes to a “double standard.” It’s not. It’s blatant content management and it no longer is very effective because it’s been so transparent for so long, Americans give the same respect to the New York Times‘ political opinions as they did the Weekly World News.
Thank heavens the Mainstream Media is dying.
May it be slow, protracted and painful.
Just like the damage they’ve inflicted on objective journalism during the last 50 years.
A bit touchy there, are you? Non-Seq has been here 5 years longer than you and, from my observation, a solid FReeper and entitled to an opinion that may not be an echo of yours.
Thanks for the grand family picture!
You new wave of “true conservatives” don’t like facts much, do you?
"Seal up your lips and give no words but mum."
Enlighten me about those "facts" that going to sink O'Donnell?
That's an excuse for not paying your bills? So you think all those morons who ran up six figure tuition bills getting their Fine Arts degrees, or those people who stop paying their mortgages because they bought a house they couldn't really afford should just be forgiven because money is tight? Geez, sounds like you would be much more comfortable over on DU than I would.
Ummm O’Donnell answered the questions do you know what that answer was?
I know that she tried answering some of them. She proved that the claim her house was foreclosed and repossessed was false. But the fact that she defaulted on her mortgage and that Chase had to go to court and get a judgment against her, or that a sheriffs sale was scheduled is a matter of public record.
Likewise she claims it took her 10 years to pay off her tuition. But Farleigh Dickenson had to take her to court and in fact it took her 10 years to pay off a the $4800 legal judgment against her. So $480 per year was all she could afford?
Or more like it that you’re getting your talking points from Commie Coons and Harry Reid’s pet rat.
No need for that. It's part of the public record. Like I said, nobody needs to work to dig for dirt on O'Donnell. She's left enough of it lying around for anyone to see.
So what? Christine is qualified for a position in 0b0z0's WH who didn't pay millions in taxes. It's a badge of honor that would have given her a leg up if she ran for Senate AS A RAT! ;-)
Funny that the RATs are never criticized for the same shortcomings bestowed on Republicans.
Thanks for the ping.
Wow. Obviously you don't know squat about NS. A solid FReeper? BS. And no way, no how, has NS been here 5 year longer than me. My sign on date is 6 years early than the one that shows. And "touchy"... naw.
Her hands have gotten plenty dirty already, wouldn’t you say? Who else, besides the Tea Party movement, conservative talk radio and Jim DeMint have been doing any of the heavy lifting? Where is our so-called “front-runner” or his guitar-playing sidekick?
>>but why on earth aren’t they demanding college records<<
That’s what I’m saying! There’s something really sinister going on. They have all either been told something or know something that they are petrified of the general public getting their hands on.
I think we'll all be surprised by the number of people who, until Sarah mentioned it, didn't know about His Invisible Majesty's missing documentation.
Madam President just educated probably another 20 million citizens on the nature of their illegitimate ruler's missing puzzle pieces.
Is that all you've got? Let the Marxist just have the DE Senator seat because she doesn't pass NS's purity test. Hey NS, you can donate to your DE Marxist of choice right here. http://www.chriscoons.com/splash/
Geez, sounds like you would be much more comfortable over on DU than I would.
Funny that when you were confronted about your NS posting they were deleted at DU pronto.
Now if Ted Baxter, the Weeper, Hannity and that crew would just bring it up every now and again...
Yeah it is a big so what? We don't see the likes of trolls ever complaining about the White House presidential appointees cheating on taxes do we. Only O'Donnell gets the electron microscope anal exam from the likes of the JourNOlist media and assorted trolls.

Whether or not she passes my purity test, and regardless of how blind an eye you choose to turn to her, doesn't make any difference since neither of us can vote for her. The whole topic of this thread is Palin's plaintive wail that the mean old MSM is spending all their time digging up dirt on O'Donnell. And my point is that nobody has to spend any time digging in order to find embarrassing information on O'Donnell. It's all out there for anyone to see and it's all self-inflicted. And it's all overwhelming any message she may want to get out there. So sorry O'Donnell seems to be self-destructing. It would have been nice to see her pick up the seat but I'm still glad Castle lost because there's another chance for a conservative to pick up the seat in 2014 while a Castle win might have prevented that. I only hope that in all of Delaware there is a better conservative candidate with less baggage than Christine O'Donnell has.

Never having posted there I wouldn't know. Sounds like you're far more familiar with things over there than I am.
He’s a troll, newb.
Still over a month to go Mr. Negative before election day, and I don't buy your Demo premise.
