Carl Cameron- Palin Assassin

Palin Assassins

AKA MFCS

I began our first post election day entry yesterday on the  shameful attempt by the "Republican Party elite" to poison Sarah Palin's well.   Ace is building a nice portfolio of the continued goings on, and he's as pissed-off as I. Most surprising to many is the role FNC's Carl Cameron is playing in this attempt to destroy Sarah.  Here's my best guess about what's gong on. In the last week of the campaign, Fox News was thrown off the Obama plane for having the audacity to criticize him.  Having enjoyed unusual access to the Bush White House for the past eight years, access that prolly gained him a certain standing amongst the White House  Press Corps, Cameron is now suddenly faced with playing Helen Thomas to Obama. In short, he has to do something to please the Obamessiah.  Don't laugh, there's precedent for self-serving ass licking by the media.  (Yes, really). Early in the Clinton Administration, 60-Minutes examined Hillary Clinton's cattle future activity - that earned her 100,000 on a $1000 investment.  The report left no doubt that Hillary had been the bag lady for payoffs from Tyson's Food,  arranged by James Blair, a friend, lawyer, and outside counsel to Tyson.  CBS was immediately placed on the Clinton do not visit list.  That led to Dan Rather's pitiful "If we could be one-hundredth as great as you and Hillary Rodham ... " barf inducer. CBS never did another Clinton investigation  until the Impeachment. “ “If we could be one-hundredth as great as you and Hillary Rodham Clinton have been in the White House, we’d take it right now and walk away winners....Tell Mrs. Clinton we respect her and we’re pulling for her.” — To President Clinton, via satellite, at a May 27, 1993 CBS affiliates meeting, referencing his new CBS Evening News co-anchor Connie Chung. ” Maybe Brit Hume's retirement announcement is the result of his realization that all media will eventually go in the tank for access?   A caller to a local radio show this morning identified himself as being involved with the RNC.  According to him, he early on suggested that polling showed America wanted change, and the best ticket would be Sarah Palin and Michael S. Steele, who had been Maryland's much respected Lt. Gov. That set off a whirlwind of anti-Palin activity, led by Rudy Giuliani and Mitt Romney, to name two.  The same elements are working behind the scenes now to destroy their most formidable competition in 2012.  Of course this is hearsay, but it does comport with what I'm seeing, and what common sense I have. It's been 28 years since a political figure energized me to the point of becoming a True-Believer, but Palin has. Anybody who screws with Sarah unfairly is dead to me.
