Sarah Palin is betting that no one will notice that she is telling huge lies, including the lie that she was opposed to the bridge to nowhere. Here's video evidence that she has lied: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieuA7nAOBXQ&eurl=http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/[/youtube] Update: Keith Olbermann asked Barack Obama was asked how Obama would be countering these untruths. …

Why should we ask John McCain harsh questions? Because we need to even the playing field. You see, if Barack Obama had McCain’s background, ignorance and bad character, the election would have been over months ago. The news media is holding back, though. Those media barbecues appear to be paying off.
So it’s time to even the playing field. Since the media keeps asking these sorts of disparaging and insulting questions to Barack Obama, it’s time to ask these same sorts of questions to John McCain. I admit that a few of these are outrageously unfair, just like many of the questions repeatedly posed to Obama.

If you have additional questions that the media needs to ask John McCain, please submit them in the comments. I’d like to make this post a place where reporters are free to visit for ideas. As you can see, I’ve attached explanatory links to most of the proposed questions.
Unlike Barack Obama, McCain has a lot of explaining to do about what kind of person he has shown himself to be and portrayed himself to be. Let’s get started:
Generally Puzzling
Isn’t it true that you personally now oppose several bills that you yourself co-sponsored?
Why is your smile so creepy and fake?
Do you really believe that the President of the U.S. virtually functions as a dictator?
General Character Deficits…
