Assassinating Sarah


Maureen Dowd does too stink

I don't see this as a Sarah Palin story so much as a story about the Democratic Media Complex tradition of assassinating with lie, innuendo, and slander any conservative leader who they deem a future Ronald Reagan capable of winning theWhite House.  Quayle, Newt, and any number of other lesser upstarts  have been cut down in recent times, and Sarah is the latest victim.

In covering her resignation, the WaPost headlined, "Once Again, An Enigma Plays It by Her Rules."  Any conservative who gathers a political following is an enigma to Liberals, but ciphers like Obama are embraced, even sought after for their lack of a public record.  This Breitbart article  is a terrific insight into that process. [excerpted from New York Times Barbie strikes again
For those who didn't pay attention, Mrs. Palin's unexpected stratospheric rise as a national political figure threatened the media's preordained presidency of Barack Obama.

In light of how the Obama machine took down Hillary Clinton, which unsettled many feminists who believed 2008 was their time, many who saw sexism at play - the destruction of an ascendant Republican female icon was an urgent imperative for the Democratic Party.

In conjunction with the laws of political correctness as perfected by the Democratic Media Complex, it would take prominent women to take down an unlikely and unexpected conservative feminist symbol that threatened to steal away Mrs. Clinton's votes from the Chosen One.

While the vanquished then-senator from New York conspicuously removed herself from this task - going so far as praising Sen. John McCain's running mate as "a very composed and effective debater" - a trio of media partisans, each with a unique skill set, rose to the task of tearing down Sarah Palin.


 

Misses Dowd, Couric and Fey - Obama's Angels (featuring Joy Behar in the role of "Bosley") - used a potent mix of mockery, snobbery and vitriol to undermine Mrs. Palin's feminist bona fides.

They are what my wife calls "pad throwers," an allusion to the shower room scene in the Stephen King film "Carrie," in which the popular girls throw sanitary napkins and tampons at the film's namesake.

Simply put, they are bullies. And female bullies - "Mean Girls" as Miss Fey's film calls them - are the cruelest kind.

Miss Dowd's attempted takedown of Mrs. Palin is less skillful surgery than it is name calling using fun noun and adjective pairings. Think "Mad Libs." And, that's exactly what Misses Dowd, Couric and Fey are. Once the ladies did their job, liberal men like Jon Stewart and David Letterman had the cover to join the hate campaign.

The media bitches may not stink, but I'm sure they smell of expensive perfume and treachery, which has an odor as foul as road kill on a hot summer day.
