McCain presidential campaign strategist Steve Schmidt went on the record with the Washington Post's Howard Kurtz today, revealing the depths to which the mainstream media has sunk in their efforts to destroy the family of Republican vice presidential pick Alaska Governor Sarah Palin.
Schmidt said that the campaign has been deluged with demands from reporters that the Palin family submit to DNA testing to assuage baseless rumors promulgated by the Democratic party's favorite website, the Daily Kos.
Schmidt accused the media of being "on a mission to destroy" Sarah Palin.
Kurtz writes that Markos Moulitsas, the founder of the Daily Kos, believes the made up allegations against Palin and her daughter are legitimate. Kurtz fails to note that Moulitsas writes for the Post's sister publication, Newsweek.
Schmidt also said reporters are demanding to see the birth certificate for Palin's newborn.
The news media is treading on dangerous ground with their despicable behavior regarding the Palin family. They are arousing an anger in Americans all across the country who see themselves in the Palin family and are beyond outrage over how they have been trashed.
Democrats/Marxists are evil.
This shows that liberals/Democrats/Marxist in the media and elsewhere are evil.
Palin/Tancredo in 2012
or Tancredo/Palin in 2012
Long live the protector of the U.S. border, the defender of faith and freedom, long live Tom Tancredo!
Long Live Sarah Palin!
It’s in the balance, and unfortunately it’s not going to end this fall. The hatred of the left just propels them from generation to generation.
Watching post Tuesday RNC PMSNBC presstitutes attacking enforce now.........those guys are trash !
There is nothing wrong with her telling them, “No!” It’s certainly her right as a mother to do so. I’m just saying if she does take the test, it will only serve to make the liberals look like the fools they are when it comes back that Trig is her son.
Show us Obama’s birth certificate. Why isn’t the media asking for that? Makes one heck of a lot more difference than Trig’s birth. He’s not running for anything.
I am a fervent supporter of the 1st Amendment ...
****************
Look at my tagline for why the 1st Amendment seems not working in this case ...
WTH?
This is going to get ugly really quickly. Oh, wait the ends justify the means.
If you go over to some of the Hillary forums the rage and cynicism there against the media and the DNC is pretty marked, too.
The demise of these pustules in the media and in the DNC can’t happen soon enough.
CW 2 needs to start with these MSM traitors winging from lampposts
I want to have a second look at the blue dress DNA.
I’m seriously disappointed in Fox, and especially BOR for continuing to talk about this NON-STORY.
And this whole “trash Palin” FIRESTORM is seriously beginning to piss me off in a MAJOR way.
Thank GOD we have a true conservative candidate for VP.
The left is freaking out completely, as she is a threat to their very existence and way of life (victimhood, trashing religion, etc).
God, I can’t stand looking at that little douche bag, pole smoker.
They don’t give a crap about DNA or birth certificates. They just want to bully her into withdrawing. May God give her the strenght to stand up to these truly evil creatures.
Somebody alert Drudge. This needs to be shown to the world.
This is surreal!
Hubby has been sort of detached from politics for the last eight years. Since the announcement of Palin for VP, hubby is enthused about presidential politics again. He really likes Palin, and he’s madder than heck about the Death Or Else crowd’s attacks on Sarah Palin, an innocent baby boy, and Bristol Palin.
Hillary Clinton should thank God that she’s not in Barack Obama’s shoes right now. Woe unto the Death crowd!
This is a lynching. The corrupt Dimocrat media are trying to lynch a woman. Unbelievable and astonishing.
“When the test comes back that Trig is her son, the liberals will look extremely foolish.”
Nope, they will find another attack in three shakes and pursue it like the failed one never existed.
Hey, I’d settle for just a couple of questions for hOlyman about those topics. The press has avoided those topics as well as they avoided questions of the impeached former president about his rape of Juanita Broadrick.
