Lately, they're not even trying to pretend that they're anything other than a propaganda arm of the RNC.
I hope President Obama brings back the fairness doctrine.

Sarah Palin is on the record claiming that "God" wants America to prevail in Iraq.
Funny.
Adolph Hitler is on the record claming that "God" wanted Germany to prevail over the "Godless Bolsheviks" and "Cosmopolitan Jews".

My thought for this day: I hope the Republicans - who seem jubilant that their convention got high ratings - are truly satisfied that their display of hate-mongering was seen by so many. The contrast between the hope and plans of the Democrats and the hate and vitriol of the "White People's" Party could not be more clear.
(If I were them I would be afraid. Very afraid.)

O'REILLY: I think you were desperately wrong on the surge, and I think you should admit it to the nation that now, we have defeated the terrorists in Iraq, and the Al Qaeda came there after we invaded, as you know. OK? We've defeated them.
OBAMA:
[leaps out of chair, knocks O'Reilly out cold]
How about that, you loud-mouthed motherfucker?

You know, when The Revolution comes, and the Duck Pit/Rocketship to the Sun actions commence, these stupid motherfuckers should realize that they've condemmened their families to the same treatment they're going to get, because they're the ones who insist on aristocracy and nepotism as the standards.

Having cleaned up some of a mess does not mean the same thing as never having made a mess. The war isn't now a good idea just because you aren't getting your ass as kicked on a daily basis as you were a year ago.

Palin said her eldest child, Track, would soon be deployed by the Army to Iraq, and that they should pray “that our national leaders are sending them out on a task that is from God, that’s what we have to make sure we are praying for, that there is a plan, and that plan is God’s plan.”

Palin's "mission from God" will play well with her fellow assholes.

No network with TOUCH the Palin family involvement with the Alaska First group. Gee.. I wonder if that would be the case if Michelle Obama was involved in a group like that.
I also don't see ABC jumping into Palin's little pastor problem.

ABC has a tradition of pulling this kind of shit.
There was an infamous Jeff Greenfield piece on Nightline back in the 1990's where they edited a Hillary Clinton speech to smear her...
Even more damning was a "Nightline" report broadcast that same evening. The segment came very close to branding Hillary Clinton a perjurer. In his introduction, host Ted Koppel spoke pointedly about "the reluctance of the Clinton White House to be as forthcoming with documents as it promised to be." He then turned to correspondent Jeff Greenfield, who posed a rhetorical question: "Hillary Clinton did some legal work for Madison Guaranty at the Rose Law Firm, at a time when her husband was governor of Arkansas. How much work? Not much at all, she has said."
Up came a video clip from Hillary's April 22, 1994, Whitewater press conference. "The young attorney, the young bank officer, did all the work," she said. "It was not an area that I practiced in. It was not an area that I know anything, to speak of, about." Next the screen filled with handwritten notes taken by White House aide Susan Thomases during the 1992 campaign. "She [Hillary] did all the billing," the notes said. Greenfield quipped that it was no wonder "the White House was so worried about what was in Vince Foster's office when he killed himself."
What the audience didn't know was that the ABC videotape had been edited so as to create an inaccurate impression. At that press conference, Mrs. Clinton had been asked not how much work she had done for Madison Guaranty, but how her signature came to be on a letter dealing with Madison Guaranty's 1985 proposal to issue preferred stock. ABC News had seamlessly omitted thirty-nine words from her actual answer, as well as the cut, by interposing a cutaway shot of reporters taking notes. The press conference transcript shows that she actually answered as follows: "The young attorney [and] the young bank officer did all the work and the letter was sent. But because I was what we called the billing attorney -- in other words, I had to send the bill to get the payment sent -- my name was put on the bottom of the letter. It was not an area that I practiced in. It was not an area that I know anything, to speak of, about."
