You Might Be A Racist If — You’re Not Voting Obama
Everyone needs to read Jonah Goldberg’s new piece in National Review about the phony racism charges constantly being leveled at McCain from the left. I wrote something about this issue the other day, but of course Jonah’s is vastly superior.
Far Left Blogs Smear Palin’s Daughter
It didn’t take long for the far left blogs led by the repugnant Daily Kos to smart smearing McCain’s running mate, Gov. Sarah Palin. Only it’s not just Palin that’s in their crosshairs, but Palin’s teenage daughter Bristol.
In a post titled “Sarah Palin Is Not The Mother“, a blogger using the name ArcXIX makes the totally unfounded allegation that Gov. Palin’s newborn with Down’s Syndrome really belongs to her daughter Bristol and she’s just covering for her daughter to avoid a scandal.
…Now, I’ve known liars in my life. Their single core problem is not with themselves, but those around them. If they’re never called out on their twisting of truths and fabrications, they simply continue to make larger lies.
Well, Sarah, I’m calling you a liar. And not even a good one. Trig Paxson Van Palin is not your son. He is your grandson. The sooner you come forward with this revelation to the public, the better.
The left-wing hate site has even taken to posting pictures of Bristol which they claim show a “baby bump” and pictures of Gov. Palin supposedly without one.
Amanda Carpenter over at Townhall points out that as usual the Kos kids have their facts wrong.
Not only is the DailyKos disgustingly inspecting Bristol’s midriff with all the fervor of LA paparrazzi examining J-Lo’s or Jennifer Aniston’s washboard stomachs for evidence of a “bump” DailyKos is is wrong on when the photo was taken. It was taken, and published, by the Anchorage Daily News in 2006. Baby Trig, a Down’s Syndrome child, was born on April 18, 2008. That’s a long time for a teen girl to be carrying a “bump” which looks nothing more than the curve of a tight sweater.
Another point the Kos smear machine leaves out is that the older a mother is the more likely she is to give birth to a Down’s Syndrome baby. Gov. Palin is 44 years old which would have made her pregancy high risk.
Within minutes of John McCain’s announcement that Sarah Palin would be his running mate, the far left hate blogs kicked into high gear. From now until election day you can count on the liars on the left to smear Gov. Palin and her entire family in every conceivable way.
Giuliani’s Mistress Used N.Y. Police as Taxi Service
If there is another scandal to be found involving Rudy Giuliani, you can bet it’s gonna be discovered not just any day now, but more like any minute.
ABC News is now reporting that before it was publicly known he was seeing her, then-married New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani provided a police driver and city car for his mistress Judith Nathan.
Giuliani allegedly expanded the budget for his security detail at the time. Politico.com reported yesterday that many of the security expenses were initially billed to obscure city agencies, effectively hiding them from oversight.
The former Mayor defended himself saying that he had nothing to do with how his security expenses were filed. He said it was up to the Police to file all the expenses and as far as he knew everything was filed correctly. His campaign has promised to launch an internal investigation.
Giuliani told ABC News today that accusations he assigned a police security detail to his mistress and helped to hide the expenses in the mammoth New York City budget “a pre-debate hit job.”
I have no idea if any of the accusations are true, or how much impact it would have if they were. What I do know is that the media has been on a mission to link Rudy to something scandalous. The narrative that many media outfits such as the New York Times have been pushing is that Rudy is a liar, an opportunist, and a crook.
Therefore, they have been feverishly trying to find anything they can that might prove this narrative to be correct. I have always been skeptical of the liberal media, but after the disgracefully rigged debate last night compliments of CNN, I have my doubts that “objectivity” even exists anymore.
This whole Rudy story has all the hallmarks of a classic political attack, so the best thing to do is let things play out before making any judgments about Giuliani.

Why The Far-Left Is Terrified of Rudy Giuliani
Frank Rich and other ridiculously far-left columnists never miss an opportunity to write a hit piece on Rudy Giuliani. They love to show pictures of him in costumes that they allege shows he’s a “cross dresser.” They love to mention how many wives he’s had and the funniest of all the charges is that he was a terrible Mayor for the city of New York.
That last charge is probably one of the most foolish claims ever uttered in an election campaign. People who live in New York and are not blinded by far-left ideology know damn well that Rudy may be many things, but a bad Mayor he was not.
Anyone who has either lived in or at least visited New York before Rudy was Mayor, while he was Mayor, and after he was Mayor know the truth. New York City was a dirty, dangerous, and crime ridden, stink hole before Rudy was Mayor. Central Park was not a place for anyone except crack heads, and the only thing the subway was good for was a good old fashioned mugging.
Columnists like Frank Rich and Paul Krugman love to mock Rudy when he rattles off his accomplishments as Mayor of New York. Rich and Krugman are without a doubt two of the most dishonest columnists in the country anyway, but what makes their distortions of Giuliani especially egregious, is that they’re New Yorkers. They know full well the sad shape the city was in before Rudy and they know what an amazing place it is now. They try and credit anyone or anything for the 56% drop in crime, or the 66% reduction in homicides, except Rudy Giuliani.
The reason Rich, Krugman, and other far-left ideologues love to attack Rudy is because he is their worst nightmare as a Republican candidate. Unlike George W. Bush, Rudy is someone who appeals to a wide range of political persuasions.
Social conservatives can get behind him, because Pat Robertson is supporting him. Moderate Democrats who at one time were just called Democrats can support Rudy, because of his liberal views on abortion, gay marriage, and other social issues. Democrats who believe this country should have a strong National Security are gonna support Rudy as well.
In effect Rudy represents the best qualities of the old Democratic party (the Lieberman, JFK wing) and the best qualities of the Republican Party.
That is why the far-left is feverishly trying to create any controversy possible that might cast doubt in voters minds about his candidacy.
Frank Rich’s column today is about the Bernard Kerik Idictment, and the recently filed lawsuit by disgraced publishing diva Judith Regan. Regan makes the charge that officials at Newscorp (which owns Fox News) encouraged her to lie to the Feds about her relationship with Bernard Kerik, because it could possibly damage the Giuliani campaign.
What that has to do with her being fired after bringing a ton of heat down on Rupert Murdoch and Newscorp after the O.J. Simpson book debacle, is anyone’s guess. I think she may have just been spending too much time with Dan Rather, but lets hope his insanity hasn’t spread any further.
There has been nothing but vociferous condemnation of Rudy Giuliani from the left, even when it was only a whisper that he was thinking about running for President. I expect this will continue, because after all this is politics. I just think it’s important to separate fact from fiction about all the candidates, and the attacks on Rudy’s record as Mayor of New York are quite simply nonsense.
