Wanna keep rolling your eyes at "Obama is a Muslim" emails?...

The Left found a trump card...

Palin's faked "pregnancy"? Covering for teen daughter?

Quote:

Okay, I just have to diary about this, although in many ways this falls into the "none of our business category".

But it appears that Pallin's last child, a baby with Down's syndrome, may not be hers. It may be that of her teenage daughter.

Quote:

JUNEAU -- Gov. Sarah Palin shocked and awed just about everybody around the Capitol on Wednesday when she announced she's expecting her fifth child.

The governor, who recently turned 44, told a handful of reporters as she was leaving work to expect a new member of the first family, then headed to a reception at the Baranof Hotel to feast on king crab.

Palin said she's already about seven months along, with the baby due to arrive in mid-May.

That the pregnancy is so advanced astonished all who heard the news. The governor, a runner who's always been trim, simply doesn't look pregnant.

Even close members of her staff said they only learned this week their boss was expecting.

Apparently her teenage daughter was out of school, unseen, for months, because she "had mono".

I'm not quite sure what to think of this. Seeing as how she opposes abortion even in cases of rape and incest maybe she's actually not a hypocrite.

Normally I'd say this is a totally private issue for them, but seeing as how she's quite willing to butt into the private lives of every other American woman, I think it's fair game.

The only time I read Kos is when you post something. I think they must be run by the right.

I was curious so I did a search.
cnredd is the primary user. Only three exceptions.
* fxashun used it once regarding Subaru going for the gay market.
* yagmi used it once regarding a question on whether a Hillary ad "darkened" Obama in an ad
* I used it once regarding an article on Republican misdirection, but I also pointed out how the article contradicted itself (against the Democrats) and ignored some Democrat examples.

cnredd was the poster who brought up each and every other "dailykos" usage...

Maybe I'll use that tactic and start quoting some of the "right's" more extremist resources and stereo-typing them as "the" right....

The difference is this...

Yearly Kos Convention Draws Presidential Contenders

Quote:

The forum at the second annual Yearly Kos convention drew all but one of the Democratic presidential candidates, and it helped cement the bloggers as an increasingly significant constituency inside the party. The 90-minute session displayed many of the qualities for which the blogosphere is known -- it was free-wheeling, occasionally raucous and consistently passionate, with candidates competing with one another to earn the affection of the audience.

You can sit there and think you're going exterme left vs extreme right...

But KoS IS the mainstream of the Left...What USED to call "center-left" is now TOO FAR RIGHT for the ones that control the party...

If you thought of yourself as "moderate Democrat", may I offer you my condolences...

...Your party has abandoned you...

Hardly a "problem" if you want to utilize those standards.

Cause how many evangelical preachers does the Republican party kiss up to?

Pat Robertson? Falwell?

The right has a few people I would have to upgrade to "mainstream" by your way of thinking...

I've spent many a late night driving across country listening to Art Bell. Didn't he say somebody was after him some time back. The government or aliens or something.
I remember when Larry King was on the radio. And Jim Bohannon was his substitute. He used to whine when people would call him Jimbo. But I guess he got used to it.

All anyone needs to know is this...

Bush and McCain are not standard conservatives...Both have done things which annoyed their own party, and both have done things that have a Democratic tendancy. (Bush on spending; Bush attempting to appoint Harriet Miers to the SC; both on immigration; McCain's bi-partisan attempts at campaign reform and the "gang of 14")...

On the other side of the aisle, the Democrats have nominated 2 people (Kerry 2004/Obama 2008) that were recognized to have THEE MOST LIBERAL RECORD of anyone in the Senate...

In other words, while the Republican party nominates people closer to the center, the Democrat party continues to nominate people FURTHER AWAY from the center...
