The New York Times' Public Enemy #1: Sarah Palin

While ABC, NBC, CBS and virtually every blog that pays homage to His Holiness, The Obama, has spent tireless hours chopping at the image of Sarah Palin, it is not surprising that The New York Times has delivered the sharpest hacks. The "Newspaper" that hasn't endorsed a Republican presidential candidate since Eisenhower has pulled out all the stops in whacking away at the woman from Alaska with its liberal hatchet of hate.

We've seen them attack the pregnancy of Palin's unwed daughter, running stories hinting at hypocrisy. All this from a paper that holds Hollywood as a moral compass.

Oh, but that isn't enough for The Times. They have also run articles questioning Palin's dedication as a mother, evidently because she has such a powerfully successful career. Of course, Michelle Obama's career as a lawyer, community organizer and hospital executive is the stuff of maternal legend.

The Times also reported that <gasp> Todd Palin (Sarah's husband) was arrested 22 years ago for drunk driving. Let's see, that would have been around the same time that Barack Obama was "experimenting" with cocaine. I guess it's six in one, half-dozen in the other.

According to The New York Times, Sarah Palin has her own share of questionable associations, including lobbyists who brought money to Alaska. She hasn't spent twenty years under a hate-mongering paster, befriended an unrepentant terrorist, and worked real estate deals with a convicted felon . . . but, come on, these people brought money to Alaska!

And do I even need to mention their "She doesn't have the experience" mantra? Of course, she is the #2 on the ticket and compares favorably to the #1 on the Democratic ticket when it comes to experience so what is the difference? The difference is that Sarah Palin doesn't have testicles.

Ode to the New York Times . . . John McCain . . . and Rush Limbaugh

Confess, I must, to Limbaugh
I do not send support
Acerbic wit and rants aside
The facts he can distort
But when ideal conservative
Is accurate and true
I do not hesitate my voice
To send this man his due

He told us liberal media
Would turn on John McCain
The moment young Republicans
Began to call his name
The New York Times came forth today
To prove that Rush was right
And publish news from years ago
As if it were last night

"The sources are impeccable"
At least that's what they claimed
But now we know it's just two men
Disgruntled and unnamed
The implication was, of course
That John had strayed from Cindy
And taken money he had scorned
With voice both loud and windy

A closer look reveals to us
The story is but hollow
With quotes and hints and dirty stints
Impossible to follow
The question we must ask The Times
Is what inspires such rage
To take a thinly sourced op ed
And print it there -- Front Page
