When Katie Couric was trying to pin Sarah Palin down on examples of John McCain promoting increased government regulation of business, the CBS anchor posed no fewer than three follow-up questions, even breaking out the "not to belabor the point" line as she did just that.
But when the man perhaps poised to become the most powerful person on the planet, with all the most sophisticated communication resources at his fingertips, claims "I haven't been able to get in touch" with his aunt who has been residing illegally in this country for over four years, Couric doesn't bat an eye. To the contrary, she can be seen nodding in agreement. And far from asking a follow-up question, such as "have you tried?", Couric tossed Obama a super-slo softball, asking him to describe the thing the McCain campaign has done that's made him angriest.

Suddenly incurious Katie ping to Today show list.
Aw. Don’t be too harsh on Katie. She’s empty without her writers.
How outrageously sickening. “I haven’t been able to get a hold of her”. If this jackass does win he’s going down one way or another, too many lies. I know it’s probably unrealistic, but I think the GOP should pull a complete boycott of mainstream media for four years. Yes, even FOX, just to show “balance”.
Next in their sights will be the Fairness Doctrine at which time Rush will have to go to satellite radio.
Even so, I am more "in the know" than my newspaper reading hubby or any of my friends or other family members. Thank you FR, Rush, and local talk.
All Obama had to do was look at his donor list to see that Auntie gave him $250. Oops, I forgot, she gave it to him in $5 increments to stay under the radar like the rest of his foreign donors.
Well, he could call the Boston police. I happen to know from a local source that they have a car down there for 24-hour protection. Protection from what I'm not sure; I kinda think the sightseers alone would necessitate the car, since the local news media gave the exact address and film of the front door.
Right on!.. My family has never ever seen little miss katie on television. The good old days of the nightly news followed by Hogans Heros, Family Feud and Benny Hill are long-past. Read Joel 2:1-17 for yesterdays news for today.
If this guy can’t “get in touch” with his aunt under the circumstances as they now stand, how the h*ll can we expect this guy to be able to run our country??? Deal with foreign leaders??? Make concise, accurate, timely decisions???
If he “can’t get in touch” with his aunt using all the resources that are readily available to him, jet aircraft, SUV’s Police escorts, Secret Service interdiction and direction...We are in a world of deep doo-doo if this guy is elected....
I’m surprised anyone can understand a word she says with her lips planted so deeply in Bambi’s a##....
Palin Seeks to Smooth Things Over With McCain Adviser
I can't think of any conservative that I know who would list Katie as one of their top five role models, do you? Star-struck?
Two possible answers:...First, Katie is about as dumb as a box of rocks and cannot figure out when she has been hoodwinked by Obama or she and the rest of the media are so in the tank for Obama that they have become little more than a propaganda ministry for the DNC.

BOTH
So what you’re saying is that CBS pretty much has donated millions of dollars (worth of Katie Couric’s salary) to the Obama campaign, and not reported the donation to the FEC, in violation of the law.
So this morning I heard F&F saying that John Fund would know by 11 AM if Auntie had voted ... anyone heard
