Sarah Palin plays ‘gotcha’ on issue of vetting (You've got to see this!)
The Washington Post's Post Partisan ^ | March 11, 2012 | Jonathan Capehart

Any star worth her salt knows how to use the hype of a movie about her to call even more attention to herself after a relatively long absence. That’s why the reemergence of Sarah Palin in the middle of all the hype leading to Saturday night’s premiere of the much-anticipated movie “Game Change” was no surprise. Equally unsurprising was the nonsense she spouted with a straight face.

For instance, the 2008 vice presidential nominee, best-selling author, reality television star and Fox News contributor, appeared on “Hannity” last Thursday and complained that the media didn’t vet President Obama four years ago.

When Palin was asked if she thought Mitt Romney was the inevitable Republican nominee, she said something that ranks a 10 on the “Are you kidding me?!” scale.

PALIN: I don’t think that anything is inevitable. The numbers are what the numbers are, though, and Romney certainly is leading in delegate count. But no, nothing is inevitable and I do appreciate that these men are continuing to duke it out in the arena of ideas and are allowing themselves to be vetted....

"Sean Hannity has said he’s going to vet Obama this time even if it costs him his job."

If you actually believe that I know a bridge that is for sale.

Hannity vetted Obama more in the last election than any other national media figure, so I don't think that is quite fair. He still constantly brings up all of his radical, communistic ties every chance he gets. The one place he fell, though, was on the natural born citizenship issue. I am pretty sure that Fox News barred that issue from coming up. Maybe he means he will even address that issue, which would be great, but that would likely cost his job. For some reason Fox has been sold out concerning Obama's origins, parentage and lack of standing to be President.

Hannity rejected Thomas Sowell’s position on Obama being associated with radicals because of race the other night

He may be right. Obama has consorted with Marxists on an equal opportunity basis. He even let Bill Ayres write his book...

He may use the race thingy when it suits him, but it is just another means to an end.

So, it would be the same as introducing Mitt Romney as an investment banker without mentionng tgat he had been governor of MA. It is a childish way ro try to diminidh Gov. Palin’s career.

Sowell was saying Obama has to be associated with radicals because he’s Black?

No...Sowell had explained Prof. Bell's racism (not just against whites, but against blacks who disagreed with him) and pretty much said that Obama was the same, that he agreed with Bell, and he hired like-minded people (he named Holder). So Hannity ignores the issue of (Obama's) racism, and says how he's more worried with Obama's association with Bill Ayers.
