To be accurate here is what rbg81 said...

" Also, whoever wins the election, the Left is WINNING the argument because more people look to Government to ease their pain, no matter whose responsibility it is."

That's not what you, Thomobo2 quoted.....

fwiw-

I guess the reporters and TV crew will now report that the crowds were booing McCain.

...except that now, you never know whether or not someone will put this up on YouTube. They can report that McCain was booed, but if someone happened to be filming with a camera phone and put it on YouTube, there's one more documented lie.

The corrupt MSM’s attacks on McCain-Palin could prove to be the 21st Century’s “shot heard ‘round the world”.

DIANE: But why is that, Susan Page? As A Republican over 2 years ago she forced the head of the Alaska GOP to resign his commission seat because of conflict of interest. As a young GOP candidate she beat a sitting Republican Governer in his own Primary. As Governor, she put the Gov’s airplane up for sale on EBay. These were all covered by the Alaska press and even sent over the AP wires. Whay did your newspapers not follow up on any of these “tips” that a new political star had risen. It seems to me that, if the media had no idea who she was, it was because of your own fault in not covering the life and dedication of a dynamic, conservative woman.

Great point!

This bears repeating!

The excrement is about to hit the rotating air distributor.

Then you can rightfully say the MSM is all over this story.

It all comes down to this: Governor Palin did something that few people dared to do: take on the MSM and effectively beat them to a pulp.

Why is it that small town America has a better sense of fairness than the big cities???

Not wanting to start a flame war here, but a lot of people in big cities only concern themselves with the problems they have and not the problems of others.

Small towns, everybody knows everybody or has heard of them, and when there is trouble, they bond together in a way that explains what 'community' really means.

This fundamental of America is lost on the Dihms, and we'll see that in November.

Twenty one years ago I stopped a bank robber in Port Salerno, Florida. Real bad guy that had robbed about 10 banks and some jewelry stores.
The local t.v. station news as well as the local papers got the entire story wrong even after they asked me questions as to how it went down.
I wouldn’t trust news folk any more than I trust congresscritters.

If all the media personages lived in one town it would be more liberal than Berkeley or Santa Cruz California by far.

“The crowd was not menacing or threatening, but was clearly angry”....

If I can attend a rally it’s going to be a real internal struggle for myself not to become “menacing and threatening” to these S.O.B.’s in the media. It’s not just Palin, it’s years of watching their biased, treasonous coverage of Iraq and the war on terror.

I’ve been ignoring the news for 2 yrs and even on FR only read the headlines because I was sick of politics and I knew about Sarah Palin.

It’s only fair, since “journalists” laugh at McCain’s pick of Palin and probably do boo the ticket in private.

>>>It's about time!<<<

Long overdue....but the timing couldn't be better!

If there is a widespread similar reaction throughout much of small town America, the press won't be able to keep it quiet. We live in interesting times!!
