Well put! That’s what is so exasperating about this. Cheney doesn’t have to say anything, but here he goes and gives the jackals in the media a nice little kissy-kissy valentine to go on yet another day-long, anti-Palin/anti-conservative/anti-Tea Party orgy. It’s ammo to the enemy, to further their propagandistic agenda.
And, it happens time and time again... the GOP-establishment guys cozying up to the media scum to deep-six genuine conservatives. Palin has been on the receiving end of this constantly, to the jollies of the libs. From Barbara Bush telling her to stay the hell up in Alaska, to Krauthamer telling her to “leave the room” on the Obamacare issue (while he then totally repeats the message she expressed) to even Chris Christie rolling his eyes and making a stupid face when asked about Palin.
Palin has gone out of her way to speak well of GOP folks, abiding by Reagan’s 11th more than any other Republican out there, yet she’s constantly on the receiving end of these tawdry backstabs. It burns me up, and has ripped to shreds the respect I once held for the Party, which seems more populated by cowardly weasels than I ever imagined.
My response: “Cheney's attack on Palin cost you. STFU Cheney.”
I would have been more polite had there been more space. Considering the timing of Cheney's voluntary attack on Palin, I can only assume that the GOP-e(stablishment) considers Palin a bigger enemy than Obama. Well, I disagree with that and therefore, I shant give them a dime.
