"Levi: I'm Hiding "Huge" Things About Palin"

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2009/10/23/earlyshow/main5415742.shtml

I am far from a Palin Apologist, but has there ever in the history of media been a time when the news has given the platform to a disgruntled teenage ex-boyfriend of a politicians daughter so he can spread his innuendo(on his press tour for his Playgirl spread no less).....and then called it news. There are plenty of things to pick on Palin for, this is just gross.

Bread and circuses...

Remarkable. The fellow is ALMOST as smart as Jethro Bodine .

Indeed Tom, pretty pathetic (him and CBS). What I find interesting is that many are ragging on CBS for their journalistic integrity for providing "Levi the Playgirl" a forum. But if you watch MSNBC (which I did most of the night and this morning) they play the clip of him saying he's got the goods on her, him saying she called the baby retarded, etc., over and over again. And they do this under the guise of ragging CBS for journalistic integrity...now that's pathetic. And the left has the audacity to call Fox bias?

This morning I saw an MSNBC anchor interviewing a Republican senator about the healthcare issue. He said (paraphrasing)"the claims that this healthcare bill is deficit neutral are wrong". She (the anchor) responds with "so Senator, explain why you're calling President Obama a liar ". Obviously he had this stunned look on his face, a face that clearly had an expression of "where the hell did that come from you moron?" His response to this blatant attempt to corner him was appropriate and she had this look of the cat with the mouse tail sticking out of his mouth. That's journalism? Where is the outrage about MSNBC?
This petty crap we always get from the Obama administration bothers the hell out of me. I've never seen such a petty administration.

I'm thinking the media loves a good right wing train wreck. I think she's played up because she's photogenic and says crazy things. What the right needs is someone with pragmatism, intellectual horsepower, and vision who is NOT named after a slimy amphibian. :S

- Tell people how they are going to help get jobs back to the USA again.
- Tell people how the US is going to compete in the world economy.
- Tell people how they are going to protect them from corporate scofflaws.
- Tell people how they are going to handle (not DODGE) the rising cost of health care.
- Tell people how they are going to handle immigration, the war on terror, etc.

Palin isn't going to be the one to come up with the vision.

Those who read Playgirl will soon find out Levi is not hiding anything huge at all.
