 I have been bothered by the all consuming hatred that the ordinary ministers of the media have heaped on Sarah Palin. From the start, long before she was amazingly picked by John McCain, I had her pegged as the perfect running mate for him. There are many reasons that I like her, but one of the most important to me (and the one I believe infuriates the left the most) is the fact that she is all woman. She is not afraid to be feminine, to be submissive to her husband in their family while still being strong in her political career. She has embraced her entire feminine aspect including her fertility. Other female politicians, most notably ones on the left side of the aisle appear to be "man wannabes". They want to be treated exactly like a man. I have news for them. Why would I want to vote for a man wannabe when I can vote for a real man. Why should I vote for a pale imitation, when I can vote for the real thing.
There is one aspect of the media coverage that has become apparent to Red Cardigan:
What infuriates me is that this new media template was manufactured by the exact same people who manufactured the first one, that vicious, ugly, personal attack against Governor Palin and her family that was engineered and executed by our left-leaning media elites--and then abandoned by them when they realized (stupidly, later than they should have) that it wasn't playing in Peoria. That attack was too overt, too obvious; ordinary people in America caught on immediately to the fact that this blatantly hostile effort was being directed as much at us, at those of us who choose things like marriage and family and children and love and sacrifice, as it was at Sarah Palin, so the media had to give it up.
But they quickly got their acts together again, and started the kind of whispering campaing to which they always resort when faced with a viable Republican candidate. Better to call Sarah incurious, provincial, inept, incoherent, uneducated, than to admit that what really bothers them about her is that she's a woman who hasn't sold her soul to the abortion lobby, which is the only acceptable way for a woman to be a political star in the twenty-first century. Better to make Sarah Palin into a Tina Fey-esque buffoon than to show their hands of hatred for so many of us in America so plainly again.
Because for one brief moment we saw the demonic rage on the faces of the nice, friendly people we allow into our homes, our living rooms, even our bedrooms on a daily or near-daily basis. For one brief moment we saw that diabolical fury bleeding through the ink of the newspaper or magazine we take with us to work or read at the end of a long day. For one brief moment we saw with perfect clarity how bitterly and permanently opposed to our values these elites in the media really are--and they saw our shocked faces and heard our angry voices on the phone as we canceled subscriptions or complained to the ombudsman.
And having seen that cold, dead hatred, I think some of us are going to have a very hard time forgetting it--especially if Barack Obama wins this election.
I agree.
It's like one of those optical illusion pictures that look like formless modern art until you relax your eyes and see the three dimensional image of the jumping porpoise. Once you see it, you can't un-see it.
I'm a Supernatural junkie. I love the idea of people fighting demonic influences in the real world that everybody but them is oblivious about. When a human is demonically posessed, evey so often they show you their demonic nature manifested in dead black eyes. I think this is the case with many of the MSM people. They have shown us the black eyes, and it's going to be hard to see them the same way ever again.
