Those Who Hang Palin Don't Hate Her......Or So They Say.....
Imagine, if you will, the uproar had Hillary Clinton been "hanging around" West Hollywood....
"Hillary Victim of Hate Crime!!"
What would Keith Olbermann say? OMG!!!!
Here is what Hillary would say:
More funding and stricter sentencing for hate crimes.
Clinton co-sponsored the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act:
Title: To provide Federal assistance to States and local jurisdictions to prosecute hate crimes.
Summary:
Provide technical, forensic, prosecutorial, or other assistance in the criminal investigation or prosecution of any violent crime that is motivated by prejudice based on the race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, or disability of the victim or is a violation of hate crime laws.
Award grants to assist State and local law enforcement officials with extraordinary expenses for interstate hate crimes.
Award grants to State and local programs designed to combat hate crimes committed by juveniles.
Prohibit specified offenses involving actual or perceived race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, or disability.
Increase criminal sentencing for adult recruitment of juveniles to commit hate crimes.
Collect and publish data about crimes that manifest evidence of prejudice based on gender.

My comment to KYW-TV, CBS3 in Philadelphia, regarding their "embarrassment" at their Biden interview....
"Please, please tell me you have not bowed to the demands of the Obama/Biden campaign and have attempted to pretend the interview with Senator Biden didn't occur.
I cannot find it on your site, and, with the exception of the Breaking News at this hour on the alleged assassination plot against Senator Obama, it should be at the top of your news.
Your station's interview is making headlines nationwide, yet you ignore it?? Your management says it is "embarrassed" by it? Why? It was honest questions to a public figure, something the media is SUPPOSED to do!
I could care less whether the interview had been with Senator Biden or Governor Palin or Mickey Mouse for that matter, I cannot believe the power of the press, in your case and in this instance, has bowed to the strong-arm of the government.
You're supposed to keep them honest, not let them shut you up. When the tough questions aren't asked, people like Richard Nixon stay in office.
Please remember that, no matter WHO occupies the White House in January, 2009. Thank you."

YOU MUST WATCH THIS REPORT!!!!
Now the "bully pulpit" of Obama/Biden has "banned" KWY-TV in Philadelphia from future interviews.......
.....all because they have two anchors not afraid to ask the tough questions.
Which of course means it's "ambush journalism".
KYW has completely sanitized their Web site, acting like the interview never existed. Station management says they are "embarrassed".
Next post is my comment to KYW-TV.

What The??? Rewrite the rules???
It's one thing to push the ultimate reset button for global economics after a catastrophic event like World War II.
But NOW??
This sounds SO MUCH MORE like a secret agenda here. I can't say, as an American, I like the idea of my economic future and hopeful recovery pinned to a program whose mouthpiece is the Italian Prime Minister! I'd like it in the hands of America before we go holding hands with the rest of the world. (Let the idiots begin to accuse me of hating Italians now.....Good Lord!)
Watch this folks, watch this CLOSELY! This would be NOTHING like Bretton Woods. I smell an anti-capitalist rat here.
