Palin Smearing Baltimore Sun Columnist Whines Readers Being Mean to Her
Newsbusters ^ | 9/6/08 | Warner Todd Huston

Posted on 09/06/2008 7:13:09 AM PDT by mathprof

Susan Reimer, columnist for the Baltimore Sun, is shocked, SHOCKED I tell you, that people took exception to her tactless bashing of Governor Sarah Palin in her September 1 column, "A woman -- but why this woman?" In fact, Reimer is so upset that people where exercised enough to drop her a note, give her a call, or write an email about her baseless smearing of Palin that she says in her September 5 column that she feels "frightened." Do you want some cheese and crackers to go with that whine, Reimer?

On Monday, I wrote a column criticizing the McCain campaign for what I saw as a cynical attempt to gather in unhappy women voters by naming Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin his vice presidential candidate and for exploiting the poignant story of her youngest child to appease the Republican Party's pro-life base... And then the storm began.

Reimer was shocked to find that her substance free, lie filled attack on John McCain and Governor Sarah Palin generated "More than 8,200 comments were posted to the column on The Baltimore Sun's Web site. I received more than 700 personal e-mails and about 50 phone calls."

Even worse for Reimer, her gutter scraping column was read by Rush Limbaugh and Brit Hume and was linked by Drudge as an example of the outrageous treatment that Palin has gotten at the hands of feminist media elites like Reimer.

LOL!!! Great pic and caption!

I watched Sarah Palin’s speech again on YouTube last night. Good Lord! She takes no prisoners. Sarah will do just fine handling the anti-American left.

The media won’t learn. They’ll just think they’re being picked on. Write a hit piece and get hit. Then whine about it.

Nice! The same thing happens in my home town. The local newspaper, which actually has the word ‘demo-rat” in its title (how subtle can one be), delivers free issues to my doorstep in the hopes I will buy a subscription.

The whining, cowardly left is a bunch of gutter rats. Two-faced, hypocrites who can dish it out, but these weaklings cannot take it.

Criminal wimps of the MSM.

I went to Google, then used the ‘Images’ tab, and searched: “Symbol of Democratic Party.”

You may have to get permission from one of the websites that has it - I don’t know who first created it, but copyright laws might apply.

Good luck! :)

Oh, make no mistake. The feminist left hates Gov. Palin precisely because she’s gorgeous. All that political stuff is secondary.

The things that were said about me, my personal appearance and my children - as well as Barack Obama - were beyond the bounds of decency, and many were said in language that might only be seen in a bathroom stall.

The hussy can dish it out, but she sure can't take it...! What about all the nasty things that have been said about Palin, her children, and her personal appearance(!?!?)?

Eight thousand people responded?

And Palin McCain are finding enormous crowds where ever they go. That makes me think the polling is undercounting the support McCain has. They are showing it about 50-50, but I’m suspecting this is a runaway train. McCain and Palin are running away with this thing.

If I were her I would worry about my job. Newspapers are cutting jobs not adding. If I had a copy of the rag.

I would call the ads and say if you continue to try and sell your products in this rag, I will buy at another business that doesn't advertize in that paper.

I saw where a car dealer made an offer of $5,000.00 for an ad that cost him 25,000.oo last year and they took it.
