I suppose it's already been discussed here today (my power was out this morning), but Mandy, did you see on the front page of Fox, they were talking about that US Weekly magazine cover that you linked yesterday? It's real. Fox is comparing it to the very positive, gushing article on Michelle Obama from two months ago.

It's WAR! McCain declares WAR!

"...Feisty McCain Tells Staff He's Indignant Over Palin Treatment

John McCain spoke to staff and advisers working in the campaign War Room at the Minneapolis Hilton this afternoon, and forcefully vowed to fight hard to defend his running mate Sarah Palin against attacks from the media and Democrats. "They’re not doing right by our vice president, they’re not doing right by the American people," McCain said, according to a source in the room. "We’re gonna fight back, we’re gonna get ‘em.” McCain pounded his fist into his hand as he spoke, the source said, and made clear that he would be aggressively challenging those who are attacking Palin....McCain advisers expect that he will address the issue in his speech to the convention tomorrow evening. McCain's campaign has increasingly turned its sights on the media in recent days as journalists continue to probe Palin's personal life and discuss her performance as a mother. McCain is personally offended by the controversy.

Earlier Wednesday, campaign chief Steve Schmidt blasted the media for its treatment of Palin. "Governor Sarah Palin is an exceptional governor with a record of accomplishment that exceeds, by far, the governing accomplishments of Senator Obama," Schmidt said it a statement. He added: "This vetting controversy is a faux media scandal designed to destroy the first female Republican nominee for Vice President of the United States who has never been a part of the old boys’ network that has come to dominate the news establishment in this country."

And late Wednesday afternoon, Schmidt made a second statement threatening legal action against the National Enquirer for its report that Palin had an extramarital affair.


"The smearing of the Palin family must end. The allegations contained on the cover of the National Enquirer insinuating that Governor Palin had an extramarital affair are categorically false. It is a vicious lie. Governor Palin is the most popular governor in the country. She is a proven leader, an accomplished executive, a champion for ethics reform, and a fighter against corruption. The efforts of the media and tabloids to destroy this fine and accomplished public servant are a disgrace. The American people will reject it.

Senator McCain and Governor Palin look forward to discussing the issues that Americans care about, fixing broken government, creating jobs, making our country energy independent and securing the peace for the next generation by bringing the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan to a victorious end. Legal action will be considered with regard to this disgraceful smear.


Congressman Ed Royce, a conservative from California, says that the attacks on Palin will backfire. “Senator McCain’s choice of Sarah Palin not only energized and excited the Republican base, it sent the liberal media into making-panic-induced personal attacks on her family that are beyond the pale. The more they attack, the more they reinforce her image as an outsider and a reformer and the more attractive she is to independent voters who rightfully mistrust the mainstream media.”

I agree. This lineup can seal the deal for the Republicans and Sarah Palin is batting cleanup. The pressure is high, but I have to believe that she can do it.

Sarah's going to do us proud tonight- I have no doubt about it.

What's interesting though is the left may have played their hand too quickly by digging all this "dirt" up now, they leave no October surprise. I also think they overestimated the point that what they've dug up would somehow be damaging. They're idiots, and tonight Sarah's going to make them seethe and cry for their Mama's.

102 goddessoftheclassroom  Wed, Sep 3, 2008 2:12:15pm

Since a goddess's work is never done, your literature (well, kind of) lesson for today:

There's an Agatha Christie short story called "The Augean Stables." There is actually something slightly unsavory about the Prime Minister's wife's father--something that could bring down the Prime Minister, who is himself a good and decent man. A tabloidesque paper is dropping salacious hints, and then published all sorts of rumors until the Prime Minister sues for libel, In court it turns out that the pictures of the PM's wife were staged, featuring a look-alike. The libel is proved, the credibility is destroyed, and the paper goes bankrupt,

Turns out Hercule Poirot was behind all the tips so that the one kernel of true scandal was forgotten in the midst of all the other dirt.

RYMB!

I hope the video has a big old picture of her son in uniform.

I would like to see her rub the left's (and their enablers) noses in each and every nasty pile they've dropped, but in a controlled and poised manner.

I do not want her to kick them in the balls so much as twist them off slowly and imperceptibly.

Remember the left leading media spasm about which congressman/senator had children in the military.

Remember when 4 months in Vietnam was all you needed?

Remember when it was "Support the troops, bring them home?"

re: #102 goddessoftheclassroom

Since a goddess's work is never done, your literature (well, kind of) lesson for today:

There's an Agatha Christie short story called "The Augean Stables." There is actually something slightly unsavory about the Prime Minister's wife's father--something that could bring down the Prime Minister, who is himself a good and decent man. A tabloidesque paper is dropping salacious hints, and then published all sorts of rumors until the Prime Minister sues for libel, In court it turns out that the pictures of the PM's wife were staged, featuring a look-alike. The libel is proved, the credibility is destroyed, and the paper goes bankrupt,

Turns out Hercule Poirot was behind all the tips so that the one kernel of true scandal was forgotten in the midst of all the other dirt.

The real question is how with the biased pro-DNC media try to sabotage it? By talking over it? excluding applause? not show it at all? Of course we already know the talking heads are going to whine about "patriotism" and other imaginary grievances.

My prediction is they will talk over her, exclude applause, break into it for analysis, slam her before she talks, have talking points that refute what she says before she says them. I think she has to take them on directly and have points kind of like Newt had with that MSNBC asshole. Otherwise the echo chamber just gets louder and louder until she is forced out.

It is sickening and blows the lid off of the hypocrisy meter. I am becoming more and more convinced that with the bad month that Obama had starting with his global 'victory' tour and culminating with a lackluster convention and being overshadowed by McCain's VP pick the day after the convention, that they have truely decided to abandon any and all pretenses at objectivity and jumped full on the Obama bandwagon.

They, like the hard left hijacked Democrat Party, fully believe today, even more than in 2004, it's party first not country first. The only thing more on display than that is their hypocrisy towards women's rights, feminism, and helping women break that glass ceiling.

The result will be an even stronger turn off of Middle America than in 2004 - and they will once again lose the groups that they need to win. Oh, and they still won't get why that's happened. That's how out of touch with reality that they are.

Tonight Gov Palin just needs to be herself - strong, engaging, self-confident - and tell her own story. Heavy on her accomplishments as PTA leader, Mayor, Oil and Gas Commisioner, and Governor. Every bit of taking on the GOB network, Oil companies, her own party.

Then an overview of her plans for the economy, her foreign policy principles, and what she believes John McCain/Sarah Palin will offer America.

Then finish it off with a statement of strength, including a broad statement about how she's experienced opposition in the past and has overcome it, because she had right on her side and the love and support of her family.

She doesn't need to defend herself - her substance will do that for her.

Then in the next few days Fred Thompson goes out and swings, Joe Lieberman heads to Florida, Mitt goes to Michigan, Huck goes where he showed strong. Sarah Palin heads to Colorado, Nevada and New Mexico. McCain goes to Pennsylvania and practically lives there, and Sarah joins him several times a week.

re: #182 Athos

It is sickening and blows the lid off of the hypocrisy meter. I am becoming more and more convinced that with the bad month that Obama had starting with his global 'victory' tour and culminating with a lackluster convention and being overshadowed by McCain's VP pick the day after the convention, that they have truely decided to abandon any and all pretenses at objectivity and jumped full on the Obama bandwagon.

They, like the hard left hijacked Democrat Party, fully believe today, even more than in 2004, it's party first not country first. The only thing more on display than that is their hypocrisy towards women's rights, feminism, and helping women break that glass ceiling.

The result will be an even stronger turn off of Middle America than in 2004 - and they will once again lose the groups that they need to win. Oh, and they still won't get why that's happened. That's how out of touch with reality that they are.

When you truly believe with all of your heart that you are the majority of America (which they do) then there's no reason not to just drop it all and go for broke.

It will hopefully be the last straw. And the ensuing fall in ad revenue will cause some kind of "New Media" to emerge. But then again, if you look at the NY Times you may find that they would rather go down with the ship than try to go for balance and objectivity. My money's on option #2.

Like I said, my b.s. meter is set off by that clip.

Compare Noonan writing in the WSJ on Palin.

It's certainly possible that she said one thing and wrote another, but I'd like more confidence on the bona fides of that video clip before making any judgments here.

I think it was Peggy Noonan.
I also think Peggy Noonan is right ... the Republicans (wascally ...) blow it every time they try that.

How many ... raise your hand(s) ... in this forum considered McCain to be a Republican before he picked Sarah Palin? Consider him a Republican now?

Last night, I got the impression that the speakers were subliminally calling for a new "Bull Moose Party".

Pun intended.

You are right on with that remark.
Think about the roots of all progressive ideologies, ultimately they all lead to a choreographed, 'new-speak', totalitarian system.
Which is because all of these ideologies are brain children and do not reflect upon the core, instinctive nature of mankind, so the ideologies and utopias need to oppress those who disagree.
What better way to achieve this than by immersing the individual in a warm, cuddly group psyche.

There was a write up on Governor Palin and the initial assessment of her being pretty good despite the fact the electorate feels the media is biased. So despite their bias, the American people like her. I think we'll continue to see Sarah as one of us and that's something the press can't stop- no wonder they're going after her so hard.

Is 45ACP getting expensive all over America or just here in GA?

Ammo's gone up, military demand stress the supply. Mostly all the manufacturing that's been dedicated to military, leaves less capacity for civilian production. Additionally gun sales, gun show attendance, license applications (WA up 44%) and ammo sales all way up. Folks (me included) stocked up and bought firearms in case BHO became POTUS and new firearms restrictions came out of congress for him to sign (almost a certainty). The increase in demand from both military and civilians is driving the price.

As the military need eases with the success in Iraq, and civilians back off purchases as the threat of a BHO win lessens the price will drop, expect and even bigger drop with a McCain win and folks relax and quit stocking up.

There are probably others here who know more about that site than I do......I heard about it about a year ago and subsequently forgot it until yesterday when Rush mentioned it. I've never taken part.

Spread it around. They smeared two good women (Say what you will about Hillary, she is better for America) and they should be smeared back.

The MSM is firmly in bed with Obama, ACORN and Daily Kos. We need to fight back hard.

Hillary earned a lot of respect in this household for her handling of it. None of us like her political positions & didn't want to see Bill as First Dude, but if it came to a choice between her and Obama we would every single one have voted for her.

I don't know about smearing them back, but we sure can boycott them and the folks that advertise with them. And we can all get out there and get out the vote for John McCain and Sarah Palin. You can volunteer on John's website. I would love to see him raise several thousand new volunteers this weekend.

Way back when they slaughtered Geraldine Ferraro - and it has set us back years. And then they shoved Hillary aside. If we as women want to ever have an equal place in American politics then we cannot allow them to do this a third time!

I wonder if we can get the US Attorney General to go after them under the election laws and RICO.

I've thought about that sort of thing, but we should leave the assaults on the 1st ammendment to Obama. Just have to trust that a big enough percentage of the population will see through it. And that the other percentage gets stuck in traffic on election night.

He as much as admitted that they scooped up all the rumors from online and published them without so much as a thought.

Amazingly, this is true for all of the media only US magazine. The NYT had 3 front page stories of innuendos!

It will be very interesting to see how it plays out. If McCain/Palin can stick it out, there may be a trememndous backlash. Or, conversely, this could build for weeks before it ends.

Many of the accusations are seedy, but very soon, they need to get Palin out there for a looong press conference to answer all of the questions. Nothing off limits. Reporters ask, and she'll answer till they are all done.

And to boot they have boosted the cost of a college education up almost everywhere to the point that you can't get out the door for less than $50K - four times that if you go to an Ivy or other top school. As much as a house. It was one thing years ago to spend big bucks for the degree because owning it bought you a decent pay advantage. These days, a four year degree in many majors will not buy you as much as a job at McDonald's pays.

What has happened to the Democratic Party of my family?

Listening to the bluster from the Left, I was thinking what happened to the Democratic Party of my parents, where did it go, and how have we gotten to this ? Like a lot of you , my late parents were children of the Depression, and WWII. The Democrats were the can do party.
Roosevelt, Truman, Kennedy, Johnson, Humphrey, even Mondale. Now the Democrats are the Party of.........................McGovern, Carter, Dukakis, Clinton, Gore, Kerry, and now Obama.

One more thing about the supposed Noonan tape: did anyone else note that in the very brief live moment at the beginning, there was a "Ron Paul" sign prominently displayed?

Is anyone really waving Ron Paul signs anymore? At the Republican Convention?

The appearance of that sign makes me wonder whether this tape is not a sabotage piece concocted by one of Paulian fringe.

Just musing.

Ron Paul is actually having a mini -convention across the river in Minneapolis.His people are there.

Reading the Chicago Tribune today one sees that every "letter to the Editor" is about Sarah Palin. Not one positive letter, not one.
They really cherry picked. So are so in the tank for Obama, that the paper has become a rag.
Lesson, don't be a non Democrat woman & run for national office, if you don't want to be slimed.

And the Chicago Tribune has a reputation of endorsing Republicans for president. IIRC, they endorsed GWB. It will be interesting to see if the tradition continues.

Not so much a setup, as Nixon had a paranoid streak and loyalty to his people streak. That made it hard for him to come clean early.

It was so much the Watergate break in, it was all the stuff after wards once the hunt was on. The hunt fed Nixon innate paranoia, and vicious cycle.

All this tabloid talk about "Palin will have to be replaced" is so much lib-generated horse crap. How much of this negative hurricane has been generated by our friends, the Clintons?
I want Sarah to stay put and stay strong. My instincts tell me this is a woman who can't be broken. I'd rather lose with Sarah than win with a kowtow to the Democrats.
When the dust (snow?) settles, she'll be above the fray, IMHO.

Truthfully, I don't think any of it has come from the Clinton machine. What is being done to Sarah just validates what Hillary claimed (rightfully) was being done to her.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the McCain camp rolled out an “I am Sarah Palin” ad campaign? It would simply be a series of commercials that show a woman describing herself, like “I am a mom of 2 children, I am a wife, I am a PTA volunteer, I am a team mom, I am a marketing executive, I am a Democrat, etc” then the tag line, the woman says “I am Sarah Palin.”

They could have a series of women of different ages and different races giving their story, all saying in the end, “I am Sarah Palin.”

re: #510 buzzsawmonkey

Observe, by the way, how "frontier self-reliance"--once an asset in American politics--is now being spun as "small-time hick who can't possibly play in the big leagues."

I once knew someone who had lived in a monastery for a period of time. He said that in this community, shut off from the world, you did not escape the pressures which were present in the larger world--they were magnified by virtue of the community's self-imposed isolation.

By the same token, having to deal with issues as a small-town mayor and as the governor of a thinly-populated, extremely large state, means that one has to deal with things in an up close and personal manner, without the luxury of being able to hide behind a phalanx of protective flunkies, voicemail, and euphemisms.

Something to keep in mind.

Hewitt made that point about small town politics. A small town mayor has to managing everything, without upsetting friends. That when a mayor does something unpopular, the town has to know the mayor is honest, and doing it for the right reason. That generates respect.

Alittle more detail on Meygen Kelly's ass kicking of that weaselly US editor courtesy of ACE:
Did Anyone Just See the Megyn Kelly Interview with the US Magazine Hit-Piece Writer?
—Ace

It was fantastic.

I've written Allah and the Newsbusters to get cutting this vid ASAP.

It was awesome.

Robert explains it a little:

Great interview just happened on Fox. She asked him about the false claims and distortions and the editor just said, "well, it's a breaking story and everybody was talking about it..." On the DUI, Meg asks him if he mentioned that it was 22 years old, he claimed they did and she calls him out as a liar. Great stuff.
She then asked if he reported that the Wooten controversy included the confirmed fact he'd tasered his 11-year-old kid-- he didn't include that, of course. He said there "wasn't enough time."

But that's not what made it great. What made it great was Kelly's outraged prosecutor demeanor-- and the sucker of cock smear artist's rat-like grin as he lied, knowing he was lying, knowing he was caught lying, but grinning anyway as if to say, "Yeah? And what can you do about it?"

541 Killgore Trout  Wed, Sep 3, 2008 3:56:46pm

Does Palin have a pastor problem?

Anti-Jewish Terror is "God's Judgment"

Brickner also described terrorist attacks on Israelis as God's "judgment of unbelief" of Jews who haven't embraced Christianity.

"Judgment is very real and we see it played out on the pages of the newspapers and on the television. It's very real. When [Brickner's son] was in Jerusalem he was there to witness some of that judgment, some of that conflict, when a Palestinian from East Jerusalem took a bulldozer and went plowing through a score of cars, killing numbers of people. Judgment — you can't miss it."

I don't think Hillary thinks that Sarah will win. Or figures that she will be able to walk over her come 2012. Or is the female version of Joe Liebermann and knows that her shot has been stolen and she will never again have a chance for the top slot. If you think about it, what the DNC did to Joe Liebermann is exactly what they did to Hillary.

What I do know is that there are several websites for Hillary supporters and they are supporting McCain-Palin.

re: #541 Killgore Trout

Does Palin have a pastor problem?

Anti-Jewish Terror is "God's Judgment"

Audio of the sermon here: Palin Pastor: Terrorism v Israel Due To Jews Rejecting Jesus

Seems pretty insensitive to me. Any thoughts on this?


For starters, Palin attends three churches - one in Wasilla, one in Juneau, and one in Anchorage.

The Chasid Jewish community in Anchorage, Alaska, knows Sarah Palin. The rabbi of that community has made a statement in support of Palin attesting to her friendship for Israel. And if you look at pictures of Sarah Palin in her office, you will - if you look closely - find an Israeli flag.

Now, take that crap out of here.

Most "deaths by animal" in Alaska are by moose, not bear.

Even locals get sucked in now and again. During one particularly harsh winter some folks on the Kenai Peninsula who lived in a mobile home just outside Homer - occasionally fed the moose in the area carrots and other veggies in their yard to help them out. When they stopped feeding them a couple months later the moose battered the mobile homes door and side in. The couple barely escaped. They don't feed wildlife anymore.

Can you translate this for me? I got it in an e-mail yesterday:

There may be those among you who support including Spanish as our national language.
I for one am dead set against it!

We should preserve the sanctity of the English language.
To all the shlemiels, shlemazels, nebbishes, nudniks, klutzes, putzes,
shlubs, shmoes, shmucks, nogoodniks, and momzers that are lurking out
there in the crowd, I just wanted to say that I, for one, get sentimental
when I think about English and its place in our society.

To tell the truth, it makes me so farklempt, I'm fit to plotz.
This whole schmeer gets me broyges.
When I hear these mavens and luftmenschen kvetching about our national language.
What chutzpah!

These shmegeges can tout their shlock about the cultural and linguistic
diversity of our country and of English itself, but I, for one, am not buying
their shtick. It's all so much dreck, as far as I'm concerned.

I exhort you all to be menshen about this and stand up to their fardrayte
arguments and meshugganah, farshtunkene assertions.
It wouldn't be kosher to do anything else.

No. That's not the way it works. If you don't want to discuss it that's fine but we are not going to adopt rules like Dkos did for Edwards.

This is some sort of the apparent contradiction between G-d loves Israel, therefore he punishes Israel.

"Now, I urge [...] do not be dismayed at these calamities, but to reflect that such visitations are intended not to destroy our race but to discipline it. Indeed, when evil-doers are not left for long to their own devices but incur swift retribution, it is a sign of great benevolence. In the case of other nations, the Master waits patiently for them to attain the full measure of their sins before he punishes them, but with us he has decided differently [...]. And so he never entirely withdraws his mercy from us; he may discipline us by some disaster, but he does not desert his own people."

On energy policies that the McCain-Palin administration will implement:

"Our opponents say, again and again, that drilling will not solve all of America’s energy problems - as if we all didn’t know that already. But the fact that drilling won’t solve every problem is no excuse to do nothing at all. Starting in January, in a McCain-Palin administration, we’re going to lay more pipelines...build more nuclear plants...create jobs with clean coal...and move forward on solar, wind, geothermal, and other alternative sources. We need American energy resources, brought to you by American ingenuity, and produced by American workers."

re: #729 Killgore Trout

This is slightly off topic but some Christians view the rebuilding of the Temple Mount as a precursor for doomsday. Do you have any clue how the Jews feel about it? Are there Jewish prophecies about it or is it just a Christian thing?

Beyond reading a few books long ago and watching the Left Behind movies once some time ago, I generally ignore such Pre- (or Mid- or Post-) Tribulation Rapture, Pre-Millennial Dispensationalism as I think they misunderstand the prophecies that they base these beliefs on. An online search of these terms may yeild what you are looking for (or just really annoy you).

In the Jewish Scriptures (the Old Testament), they rely heavily on the prophetic books of Daniel and Ezekiel. In the New Testament, they rely primarily on the Apocalypse or Revelation (same book, two names) along with a few verses taken from the Gospels and Epistles.

My understanding is that there are a few Jews at least that wish to rebuild the Temple, but I have no source for this information.

There are various translations of "translation" including rapture, transformation, parousia

[Link: www.catholic.com...]

Premillennialists hold, as do virtually all Christians (except certain postmillennialists), that the Second Coming will be preceded by a time of great trouble and persecution of God’s people (2 Thess. 2:1–4). This period is often called the tribulation. Until the nineteenth century, all Christians agreed that the rapture—though it was not called that at the time—would occur immediately before the Second Coming, at the close of the period of persecution. This position is today called the "post-tribulational" view because it says the rapture will come after the tribulation.

Just like the disengagement which showed that although you cannot destroy the one home of a Terrorist, even after he/she has committed the Terrorist act...it is perfectly fine to ethnically cleanse every Jew and Jewish symbol from the land...this will further evidence that the Israeli government is working against the interests of its Jewish citizens and believes that Jews have less rights than the Arabs.

re: #812 The Pulchritudinous Patriot

Catholics don't believe in necessarily the word "rapture" or "millennialism", but:

As far as the millennium goes, we tend to agree with Augustine and, derivatively, with the amillennialists. The Catholic position has thus historically been "amillennial" (as has been the majority Christian position in general, including that of the Protestant Reformers), though Catholics do not typically use this term. The Church has rejected the premillennial position, sometimes called "millenarianism" (see the Catechism of the Catholic Church 676). In the 1940s the Holy Office judged that premillennialism "cannot safely be taught," though the Church has not dogmatically defined this issue.

With respect to the rapture, Catholics certainly believe that the event of our gathering together to be with Christ will take place, though they do not generally use the word "rapture" to refer to this event (somewhat ironically, since the term "rapture" is derived from the text of the Latin Vulgate of 1 Thess. 4:17—"we will be caught up," [Latin: rapiemur]).

Reporting in on reality in the People's Republic of Western NY:

1) It was the kid's 1st day of school. Somehow, her chemistry teacher managed to make mention of "Global Warning" (kid forgets the context). Even in chemistry!

2) The lady who owns the business that cleans my workplace said the regular pundit on a local radio show she listens to was apparently off, and they had a moonbat in instead. Moonbat (I think it was a woman) said such horrendous things about Palin that Businesswoman got extremely angry and could not listen to it any more.

3) I went to lunch with a bunch of guys. College grads and professionals all. One eventually mentioned that Palin was giving a speech tonight. Most had kind of a "Who is she, anyway?" attitude, although they were well aware of many of the moonbat attacks against her. None had any idea that Obama is associated with an unapologetic terrorist, that a close associate of his (who handled his home purchase) was in jail for corruption, and that when reporters are asked to name an Obama accomplishment they become speechless. One poor ignorant stiff said, "but it's not a reporter's job to defend Obama"...
