Blitzer & Situation Room Sink Into The Liberal Sewer ( Discusion of Gov Palin's daughter )
Strata Sphere ^ | Sep 01 2008 | AJStrata

Posted on 09/01/2008 4:25:27 PM PDT by Ernest_at_the_Beach

I just watched the most amazing bit of TV in decades - I cannot wait to see the YouTube version of it. Wolf Ditzer (aka Blitzer) was hosting Gloria Berger, Bill Bennet, Donna Brazille an John King (I believe) on The Situation Room and were discussing young Bristol Palin’s (Governor Palin’s oldest daughter) pregnancy and her plans to have the baby and marry the father. At the center of this discussion was Barack Obama’s call to keep the families (and these personal decisions) off limits. But what does CNN do? They air a woman reporter who ran to Alaska questioning the entire abstinence position of Governor Palin in light of her daughter’s  pregnancy. It was pathetic.

Besides the Duh factor that abstinence works every time it is tried (pregnancies being proof of the opposite) Bill Bennet was rightfully outraged at CNN and Blitzer for bringing the Palin family’s personal issues into the debate like this. Bennett was hammering Blitzer who did not want to concede CNN crossed the line.

John King was looking just stunned and as if he was going to get sick. He wanted nothing to do with the muck raking by CNN.

My point exactly.

So if we all knew that Troopergate was a made up scandal without merit.....

Then why did McCain/Palin handlers hide the truth of this pregnancy until now?

Nobody owed it to you to tell you their daughter was pregnant. It’s none of your business. It’s kind of sick on your part how you want to dwell on it and think you are owed details. KOS laps that crap up and DU does too.

Get lost!

You’ve been running around all day peeping into their bedrooms and discussing it on different threads.

You should provide proof of a cover-up so far your record on that matter is a big zero.

Some folks have asked, don’t believe you’ve answered this yet. Exactly how would you have had them reveal this in such a way as would not have been hiding it or lying about it? Give the sequence of events you would have approved of considering her appointment was announced Friday in Dayton at about noon EDT.

The “Trooper Gate Scandal” is BS too, but at least that is a legitimate target. Once you know the facts, the scandal goes away, but at least it's not targeting a minor just because she appears to be a soft target.

Amen to that.

You have no right to call anyone on this thread a hypocrite. Just because FR is a bastion of conservatism doesn’t mean it’s filled with throw-the-first-stone types like you.
