How Have You Found Troopergate Covered On Teevee??? Today Show glossed over it,

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

and left it in the air by not disputing McPalin's claim that it was a partisan report. Although they mentioned the report said Palin abused her power and that she was unethical, they never made it clear that it was illegal.

When John Harcourt was asked about it, he said it would not affect Palin's base and in general not have a big affect.

:puke:

1. It's a weekend folks. Without Chris, Keith and Rachel, it'll continue to be glossed over.

2. That is not permitted to be discussed in Totalitarian Amerika in Oligarchy-Run Media.

Just where do you think we are living, a Free Country?

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I mean, of course it will be shown very briefly to give the Bushies and their M$M Toadies Plausible Deniability, and the M$M will repeat Bushie Lies as enthusiatically as they ever have. I mean, everyone wants to keep their job.

It won't have a big effect because Amerika is NOT a Free Nation. If it was, the information for good or ill would be known by most.

But Amerika is now, since the Bushies took it over and probably before, otherwise we wouldn't be slavishly so obedient to tyrants, the kind of nation Free People should avoid like the plague, even now when it still ahs a thin and phony veneer pretending that Amerika is still America.

It's not.

3. In Essence It Won't Have A Big Effect

By now either you like Grandma or you don't. There's very little middle ground about how people feel about her. This report would have been more damaging a couple weeks ago than it is now. Palin has all but become a national joke for her "interviews" and has become the new Dan Quayle...she's damaged goods the moment those Katie Couric interviews came out.

The interesting part is how Camp Gramps handles this. Do they discuss it at all? Be assured that it will be a story throughout the weekend and the days to come (why they dump it on a Friday night), but with so many other circuses going on, it's gonna get tangled up with so many other desperation attempts by Gramps. Will Palin continue to play "pitbull"? Or will Gramps have to continue to keep her as a "kept woman"...wasting as much time and energy on keeping her hidden from the media as much as he's fighting the Democrats.

Cheers...

4. yes, TV is glossing over or brusshing aside

They're givving it 2-3 minutes and then casting te story aside. BUT, I think it will have an effect -- especially on the independents and undecideds. Those three words -- abuse of power - don't sit well with the indies.

5. I can't speak for TV but it was the first story I heard on NPR this morning :-)
