Both of my ears perked to attention last night when the moderator asked Gov. Palin to assay blame for the financial crisis.
“Predatory lenders,” was her answer, disappointing because while that was correct, it was incomplete.
What, I wondered, about the unemployed and the barely working boobs? When will they finally be blamed for their culpability?
When matters are going the way a bully wants them to go, his icy brazenness will make your goosebumps pregnant.
A bully is defined as:
He has the gun, you have the perspiration drops.
A little more than a day and a half before tonight’s Vice Presidential debate, it was discovered that the — you will excuse the cynical grin — neutral moderator, the ethically deprived Ms. Gwen Ifill, is writing a book about Barak Obama, “The Breakthrough.”
One of the pleasurable interludes of the forepart of my day is reviewing suburban newspapers over the breakfast table.
Aside from the fact that the Daily News, the Daily Breeze and the Long Beach Press-Telegram are commonly owned by a miser named Dean Singleton, they possess another attribute that varies from rare to invisible in these undisciplined days.
A little word association game. If I were to tell you that only one Southern California newspaper carried the biggest national political story of the week, if all of your tires are filled, you naturally would guess “Los Angeles Times.”
With such an obvious setup, you know instinctively that would be the wrong answer.
It must be nerve-wracking sharing a common roof with a Democrat — actually, as I recall, in one of those forgettable marriages I did, and by now my therapist can afford to buy back AIG from the government.
When associating with a Democrat, I have learned it is safest to walk around with a kiss in one hand and a clenched fist in the other. One cannot be sure which side of a Democrat will emerge in public.
If Barack Obama loses the election, an elderly professor argues in the current edition of The New York Review of Books, the blame properly will be placed on the heads of millions of white bigots.
Mr. Obama’s defeat would be entirely unrelated to his vision of governing, or his views on any crucial current event, the old man writes.
When a national agency was upstaged over the weekend in the crucial area of media credit that drives many employees of government, was a board member being merely petulant when she staged a public tantrum?
Or was there a more prosaic explanation behind the page one foot-stomping at the Chatsworth train crash, as reported this morning by the Los Angeles Times?
I will admit my bias at the outset. I speak as one who was formed far enough short of perfect to attract attention upon entering even a large room.
Probably for that reason, when I sort through the feverish Left’s obsessive daily heart attacks over Sarah, the most offensive has been:
How dare she give birth— knowingly — to a Down Syndrome child.
If Mr. McCain again manages to come from far behind in the next 57 days and wins the White House, it will be less for what he has done and more because the Obama campaign quickly blew its famed composure, like a cheap suit decomposing, grew wholly distracted by Sarah, and became hopelessly enmeshed in the media’s hurricane of hysteria to beat up Sarah.
The Dems made a bold calculation to aim all of their cannons at Sarah, instead of the candidate. They are acting as if she, rather than he, will be the main target of their fodder.
Isn’t that a fine kettle of fish, the broadminded O(Go Sarah)prah, a favorite of all ladies, from age 5 to 95, saying no way will Sarah appear on her program.
This was another nifty scoop for the drudgereport.com which, you should know, has a record for accuracy that is superior to The New York Times.
Sarah, the hottest personality on earth today, and ratings-obsessed O(Go Sarah)prah turns her down because she belongs to the wrong political party.
