BUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRNNNNNNNN

National Enquirer defends its story about Sara Palin’s extramarital affair with her husband’s business partner.

“The National Enquirer’s coverage of a vicious war within Sarah Palin’s extended family includes several newsworthy revelations, including the resulting incredible charge of an affair plus details of family strife when the Governor’s daughter revealed her pregnancy. Following our John Edwards’ exclusives, our political reporting has obviously proven to be more detail-oriented than the McCain campaign’s vetting process. Despite the McCain camp’s attempts to control press coverage they find unfavorable, The Enquirer will continue to pursue news on both sides of the political spectrum.”

    Interesting how the Enquirer has gained new credibility, at least in the area of whom politicians are sleeping with. I now believe it *more* than if this had appeared on Fox or CNN.

    And this concludes your free sample. There’s more where that came from, though. You know what to do. :)

    Just yesterday you wouldn’t have needed an Enquirer affair story to feel good about your chances in November. No, really, how incredible was she??

    Note the difference in responses to scandal by Edwards and Palin:

    Edwards: confess 1% of the truth, then insert tail betweeen legs and disappear into obscurity forever.

    Palin: I’ll sue your ass, suckwad. Then I’ll burn down your house and shoot your dog.

    Yes, the genuine American soul always prefers direct action over litagation. Yes, she was awesome, and yes, they are scared shitless. They don’t have an answer for her, except to crank up their mud-machine. When you’ve led a life as busy as hers centered around family and community, it’s going to be hard to find anything that will stick.

    BTW, he daughters are cuter TOO!!! LMAO!!!!

    RuhRoh! The teleprompter scrolled away with no breaks last night. I wondered why she was turning pages at the podium. http://www.redstate.com/diaries/redstate/2008/sep/04/breaking-sarah-palin-winged-her-speech-bec/

    Union thugs no doubt.

    The Republicans are chugging the Palin Kool-Aid harder and faster than the Dems did with Obama.

    Her chief selling points for running the country is motherhood and hunting Obama is supposed to be the substanceless one?

    “…teleprompter scrolled away with no breaks last night.”

    Yup and she did just fine, didn’t she? Remember the last time Obama’s telepropter crapped out on him? Talk about a show-stopper.

    “Her chief selling points for running the country is[sic] motherhood and hunting Obama is supposed to be the substanceless one?”

    Sorry Charlie. That would be actual executive experience, as opposed to your community organizer (WTF?).

    Sweet Jesus, I can’t wait for her to debate Biden. God love him, he’s genetically incapable of not uttering something totally gaffe-tastic!

  12. Eric Says:

    “Motherhood and hunting”? That’s a bit patronizing for a sitting governor with a high approval rating. I guess if you leave out all her actual accomplishments it might seem she’s an empty suit like the community organizer.

  13. Charles Says:

    The teleprompter wasn’t broken.

    Her popularity isn’t as high as people think.

    As for “motherhood and hunting,” those are the things she chooses to emphasize. I’m just following her lead. For someone touting her record as Governor, you must love that she raised taxes on oil companies. Nobody talks about any actual specific accomplishments, so I’m not sure what I should be impressed with in her governorship.

    Charles, I thank God daily for the moronic talking points the left tries to roll out each day.

    They’re just awesome.
