Andrew Sullivan lays them out for us. [1]
What’s going on? It’s not a matter of spin or hyperbole. Sarah Palin is a pathological liar. And McCain’s “solution”? Keep Palin away from the media. Let the people watch Palin’s canned speeches over and over.
Even our ball-less corporate media isn’t going to stand for this. May they show no mercy. We have a country at stake. Therefore, here is my advice to the media:
Don’t take the guilt-bait of the McCain-Palin campaign. Don’t listen to them when they say that you’re playing unfair. Just keep putting those big headlines up: “Palin, who insists that she can be trusted to be Vice-President is caught telling a dozen documented lies.” “Palin’s best foot forward: a few canned speeches and twelve lies.” Don’t let up. If they stop giving you access, here’s your headlines: “Palin refuses to speak candidly with the media.” “Palin keeps ducking the media.” “McCain is afraid to let Palin give a press conference.”
Keep pushing these hooligans until they pop, and they will. They simply cannot stand scrutiny. For dessert, ask McCain why he lied about one of his main advisors taking big money from Freddie Mac [2] until last month.
Enough with government by scoundrels who exercise insincere, ill-informed corrupt back-room cronyism. Eight years of it has been eight years too much.
