1  Palin v. Wallace

According to an undated letter posted by the Massachusetts Historical Society, believed to have been written around 1798, Revere did provide some details of the plan to the soldiers that night, but after he had notified other colonists and under questioning by the Redcoats. Intercepted and surrounded by British soldiers on his way from Lexington to Concord, Revere revealed "there would be five hundred Americans there in a short time, for I had alarmed the country all the way up," he wrote.

2 Wallace revealed yet again why Faux News only seems conservative because the rest of the MBM is raving batshit liberal/socialist crazy.  He and the Faux researchers had plenty of time to research the original question, the context, the actual response from Palin, AND the subsequent Revere documentation.  He framed the question just as David Gregory would have done as a classic gotcha.  Too bad for Chris, she cleaned his clock. 
And the MBM still wonders why she is not racing to the them for interviews and Sunday morning shows.

#1 and #2 MM& Hrothgar- thanks immensely for the knowledge drop on this one- I was acting the eeyore Friday evening about this purported "gaffe", swallowing whole the MFM line that Palin was stupid. Self, renounced.

There's a follow up article in the LATimes that further "exonerates" Palin for this media crime. Yes, the LA frickin' Times.

Havin' a good Monday already.

Followup question- which of the 57 states was Massachusetts?

Second followup- how close is Massachusetts to the capital of Canada- you know, Iowa?

Third followup- how many weeks on average does it take for an asthmatic child in Massachusetts to get a breathalyzer? Even at this late date in 2008?

OPINION: Empower a bipartisan panel to solve debt crisis

 

No wonder Obama wanted this shithead on his team. Tell me again why this State is second on the primary list. I know, he should join the 2012 primary list.

8 Palin v. Wallace

Kommie Kris Wallace has always been an asshole liberal. He is the one who started the "fire in the belly" meme against teh Fred in 2007.

The best interview I ever saw him do was when Fred tore him a new asshole.

I haven't watched FNS in a long time. There are no Sunday news shows that are worth a shit.

So federal employees get retirement checks after death?

Why not, Democrats get to vote after they are dead.

13 Does the Taliban twitter? Interesting piece from the NightWatch: "A point worth noting is the speed by which information can reach the farthest outposts of the Taliban fighters. Cell phone and satellite technology enable near realm time communications from Quetta or Karachi to the banks of the Oxus River. If something has happened to the leadership, Taliban all over Afghanistan know it in less than a day." http://bit.ly/kuzjxj

GOP 2012 race: Staunch Conservative Rick Santorum declares, but who cares?


He is a "staunch" conservative but nobody cares.

15 Ironic, the official Democrat Party mantra ridiculing those professing an "alternative view of history" -- being themselves.

Boston Herald:

Cornell law professor William Jacobson, who asserted last week that Palin was correct, linking to Revere quotes on his conservative blog Legalinsurrection.com, said Palin’s critics are the ones in need of a history lesson. “It seems to be a historical fact that this happened,” he said. “A lot of the criticism is unfair and made by people who are themselves ignorant of history.”

16 Does the Taliban twitter?

Is the sky blue?

Commenting that a traveler knows by decommissioned transmission centers who controls that region, Michael Yon noted that the Taliban turn them on and off at will, not necessarily disabling them since they use all available technology as well as anyone else, particularly of use during daylight and not at night while halting US communications during raids.

After looking up postilion I've concluded that this would take EPIC levels of stiff upper lip.


Ha, stiff - the carriage may be smoking but the dick joke express keeps riding.

19 #13   We are in year 3 of this Carter Redux administration ( with extra-fortified Marxism!) and the media is seeing that all of their efforts aren't working.

Back in 1978,  this was when the press started getting snarky in their articles.  As they abandon the ship (never admitting they were wrong about Obama) the full-blown attacks will begin.

The journalism imposters now know they cannot do anything to save him.  They are scrambling to look like they knew it all along.

NCAA is going to _take points off the board_ for celebration next year.

This is going to improve allegations of game fixing through officiating... ...how?

How about fine the school's athletic department and move it to a scholarship fund?  Something which actually makes the problem better, not worse.

21 30% of all companies to send us to free health clinics as a result of Obamacare?

That may sound like a bad thing but let me tell you about living in rural Texas where we already have a shortage of doctors.  Doing the traditional thing of calling the doctor and scheduling a visit means waiting a few days for a chance to sit in the effing waiting room for a couple of hours, or more.  The arrogance of these doctors to keep their customers waiting for hours is astounding.  It takes precious few minutes to drive all the way across such a small town but it is beneath them to actually call people to tell them they are running behind, which they always are.  The low cost / free clinic on the other hand, allows you to show up at any time without an appointment and see a doctor in 90 minutes.  In a rural environment where the nearest medium size city where you could see a real doctor is a really long effing drive away we really like the free / low cost clinic and it's the best thing we got.
