The best piece I've seen yet dealing with the media's "savaging" of Sarah Palin.

Again, so true.
Since when is ANY part of a politician's family not media-worthy? Have we all not seen the numerous DUI mugshots, underage-drinking mugshots, sex scandals, drug scandals, gay scandals, etc. of the offspring of our fair leaders dragged out before us for years? Is Sarah Palin the first one to experience this horrifying injustice?
This election feels like Bizarro World to me. If I palm-slap my forehead one more time, I'll knock myself out.
So, let me get this straight. It's cool for Fox News and conservative bloggers to spread lies about Obama that are far worse (and far more numerous) than the ones about Palin, but it's a horrible tragedy if the same thing is done to her? Pot? Kettle? Black?
Not only that, but in her fund raising letter she all but accuses Obama and Biden outright of being behind it, but when called to the mat, her spokeswoman said that she doesn't actually believe that they are specifically behind it. Okay, either they are or they aren't. Pick a side and stay on it for goodness sake! Palin was still out there today spewing the line that they were behind it. Which is it?
Ugh, my head hurts from the astounding amounts of stupid flying around.
