I sick of unfair treatment of Palin

[Levin]

Whatever you may think of her policies, there's no doubt the media and the arrogants treat her like crap, with snarkiness and emphasis in places they ignore on Biden (and of course Obama). Just a recent roundup from ten minutes of reading this morning:

I don't give a crap that they didn't retouch her face, but Newsweek would NEVER have a closeup photo like that of Biden, Obama, or Hillary. Most of the time, newsweeklys have the class to have positive portraits of candidates on their covers (unless it's George Bush, think his Person of the Year picture on Time, which actually turned out to be positive b/c it showed him to be a tough, bull-riden ranchhand at a time when the nation kind of liked that about him).

This story purposely spins the facts to make them more negative than they are. Bottom line, in any event, is that there's nothing wrong with pressing for the firing of an insubordinate, abusive Trooper who made death threats against the executive's family. Damn I hate the New York Times (but love their Science and Architecture sections).

This one leaves me speechless. But not really: so it's newsworthy that people lobbied for Palin's selection, that some behavior was changed to make her selection more attractive. HAVE PEOPLE FORGOTTEN THE JOCKEYING THE MEDIA, THE PUNDITS, AND OBAMA HIMSELF DID IN THE RUN UP TO HIS DECISION TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT? This is ridiculous.

Even SoonerCoug should see the phoniness and foul disdain coursing through these reports (the media and the arrogants) for Palin. But I doubt he'll be able to; those who hate Palin can't see past their own hate.
