The Incredible Smearing of Sarah Palin

The world of left-wing crazies has gone completely mad since Sarah Palin was named by John McCain to become his vice presidential candidate. This move by McCain must have hit a deep chord given the reaction. Alan Colmes of Hannity and Colmes, on his website, put up the idea that Governor Palin had actually caused the Downes Syndrome malady suffered by Palin’s young son through her own negligence. Colmes later took down this slander, but not before several websites had fortunately taken screen shots of the original smear. That website entry can be seen here.

But these jackals can not get things straight. On other left-wing sites, a different story is circulating based on an examination of pictures of Palin and her teenage daughter. Based on these photographs, which show nothing, the theory has been advanced as fact that the Downes Syndrome child is actually Palin’s grandson, and the 16 year old is the real mother.

Here is a discussion of this in Townhall.com

On CNN, meanwhile, CNN anchor, John Roberts, actually happened to mention that Governor Palin "would not give adequate care and attention to Trig if she became vice president".

Now, one can trace smear campaigns like this back to the "Daisy" ad run by President Johnson against Barry Goldwater, and the smear methodology was fine-tuned during the Bork and Thomas confirmation hearings to include slanders and smears of one’s personal life. But why did the selection of Sarah Palin put the Democrats right down in the gutter so fast and in such fury? The answer is clear. It is the reason for 8 years of "Selected, not Elected". It is because they (the Democrats) are so smart and so self-righteous that they are obviously ‘entitled’ to the presidency.

They are right to be worried. The selection of Sarah Palin has so energized me, that I immediately took out my credit card and made another contribution to McCain2008. I had previously done this twice before and had not planned another contribution.

This excerpt tells it all:

Sarah Baxter The Sunday Times August 31, 2008 (Excerpt)

"When Sarah Palin stepped into the spotlight as John McCain’s running mate in Dayton, Ohio, and promised that women could "shatter that glass ceiling once and for all", it was an electrifying moment in a presidential election that had already produced its share of upsets and surprises.

History was on the march again the morning after Barack Obama became the first African-American to accept his party’s White House nomination. After the fireworks, the 80,000-strong crowd who had cheered Obama to the skies at the Mile High stadium in Denver woke up with a hangover.

"We may be seeing the first woman president. As a Democrat, I am reeling," said Camille Paglia, the cultural critic. "That was the best political speech I have ever seen delivered by an American woman politician. Palin is as tough as nails.""

On a left-wing forum that I often visit and sometimes post, the lefties' response to the Swift-Boating of their slanders was to say, "well, you right-wingers deserve this for all your slanders". This is what they are reduced to
