'So until at which point in time we feel like the news media is going to treat her with some level of respect and deference, I think it would be foolhardy to put her out into that kind of environment.'

(Translation: Until such time as the GOP can replace Palin's lies with some more general ones reflective of national and international politics, they have to find a scapegoat everybody hates while they effectively say "Shut up, Sarah.")

Sorry, Frau Palin. Elected and wannabe-elected officials are not required to "defer" to me for me to give them free publicity via interviews. You can't demand respect from anyone except those people you gave birth to - you have earn it. YOU chose to run for public office. YOU chose to put yourself on display. I doubt any of us leftist whores of the Fourth Estate told you to do it.

On the other hand ... there are days everybody can love my profession. Sort or reminds me of the naked guy on the interstate overpass who caused two cop cars to wreck in the dead middle of winter. Good times ... :-D

VP debates schedule for 10/2 or 10/3 I believe.

If the news coverage and GOP reactions up to this point are any indicators, Biden will be labeled a sexist for even challenging her. It's particularly frustrating to me.

My feeling about trying to make Biden back down is that of the two major parties, the Democrats have nothing to prove. No, they're far from perfect on minority rights, but so far, theirs is the party that pushes for them. Also, they've HAD minority candidates in the past - several in primaries and one on the Big Ticket as far back as '84. I am really appalled to see the Dems' own ethics used against them - it's more fucking Bush-Style Swiftboating.
