The media is obviously partisan towards the left. Analysis proves it, it's
obvious to the observer, and surveys show that most Americans know it to be
true.
The degree to which the MSM has gone openly, nakedly pro-Obama is, however,
truly striking. They are now more obviously in the tank than ever before in
modern memory.
The most recent example is exceptionally disgusting, even for them.
The findings of the Palin "Troopergate" probe allowed the press to feel as
though they should use the opportunity to come out with headlines like . . .

Unlawfully? UNLAWFULLY?
Check out this analysis by Bill Dyer. Here's a key excerpt:
"I find that, although Walt Monegan's refusal to fire Trooper Michael
Wooten was not the sole reason he was fired by Governor Sarah Palin, it was
likely a contributing factor to his termination as Commissioner of Public
Safety. In spite of that, Governor Palin's firing of Commissioner Monegan
was a proper and lawful exercise of her constitutional and statutory
authority to hire and fire executive branch department heads."
Here's a note to Mr. Branchflower, who clearly is verbose, but obviously
none too keen a scholar of logic: Gov. Palin's so-called "firing" of Monegan
(it wasn't a firing, it was a re-assignment to other government duties that
he resigned rather than accept) can't simultaneously be a violation of the
Ethics Act and "a proper and lawful exercise of her constitutional and
statutory authority." This, gentle readers, is a 263-page piece of political
circus that actually explicitly refutes itself on its single most key page!
So, the report-which has flaws of its own that Dyer discusses-also clearly
says that Palin violated no laws. So how does the press report it? As
"unlawful."
That's what passes for journalism these days.
PS: Note the picture CBS chose, with Palin's hand on heart, to create what
they think is some sort of sense of "irony." At what point do we get to stop
saying that the media's behavior is disgusting and start saying that they
themselves are disgusting?

I am finding it more and more difficult to find quiet in my spirit over what
is happening. I pray; I remind myself that all things work to the good, and
I earnestly hope that I am wrong about, well, everything at this point.
The media concludes something with this bogus "Troopergate" scandal that is
plainly refuted by the very document they present as proof. Indeed the
so-called independent finding is a case study in internal contradiction, if
not speculative fiction.
The underlying charge is so ridiculous as an issue it's not funny. Anyone
familiar with the facts would have to argue the mere fact the trooper is
still employed proves that it's impossible even for a governor to fire a
dangerous schmuck who is threatening the governor's family. But whatever.
Yet, for all the mass of evidence of Obama's radical political agenda and
reckless, if not dangerous, political alliances to extremists of the first
water, not to mention the cult-like following the media and Hollywood are
creating around this guy, established facts about these relationships are
presented as partisan innuendo, when they are presented at all--which is
almost never, and usually in a tone of criticism of McCain and his
supporters for bringing them up.
I would love to see an "independent panel" of Obama's past actions and
political alliances. Let's speculate about the "likely contributing factors"
of his past influences that point to nefarious motives--most of which come
right out of his own "memoirs" (possibly ghost written at least in part by
Ayers--see http://tinyurl.com/4pxtdu). It's obvious why they did this--to
blunt legitimate criticism of Obama's connections to domestic terrorists
(Ayers & Dohrn), Marxists (Saul Alinsky, his friends at the Democratic
Socialists conference in Chicago in 1996), Muslim extremists (al-Monsour),
communist dictatorial thugs (Raila Odinga), greedy executives (Raines,
Johnston), bank lobbyists (Joe Biden's son, no less) etc.
The issues isn't that he has no record, it's that what record there is
cannot be openly discussed. And what can be discussed cannot be honestly
discussed. His accusations, for example, that McCain's "deregulation" and
opposition to "common-sense" regulation is so easily refuted my head
explodes each time he says it and the media refuses to do their job of
fact-checking. Kent's video yesterday put the lie to that--but none of those
clips are making it to the nightly news. Why?
Obama was right---McCain has no idea what he's up against. And the voters
have no idea what they are, apparently, about to put in power.
God help us all.
