Sarah Palin, the mama grizzly of right-wing media haters, has weighed in on Rick Santorum’s little showdown with New York Times reporter Jeff Zeleny. And she loves it! She loves that a presidential candidate called a journalist’s question “bullshit,” because the “leftist media” is “in the tank for Obama.”
“Good on ‘ya!” the always eloquent former governor said in an interview with Fox News‘ Greta Van Susteren.
Santorum’s response to that liberal leftist in the tank for Obama press character really revealed some of Rick Santorum’s character. And it was good and it was strong and it was about time because he’s saying, Enough is enough, of the liberal media twisting the conservatives’ words, putting words in his mouth, taking things out of context and even just making things up!
So when I heard Rick Santorum’s response, I was, like, Well, welcome to my world, Rick, and good on ya’. Don’t retreat. You are saying, Enough is enough, and I was glad that he called out this reporter.
And he and the other candidates, all of them, they need to do more of this because, believe me, the American people are tired of what that leftist media continues to do to conservatives!

yes because asking someone to clarify a statement they made is such "bullshit".

We should not ask questions of our leaders, nor should we tolerate a media corps that does. Right? Again, this is all about, as it has been for years, the conservative confluence of arrogance and ignorance. Arrogant about your lack of knowledge and your right, as a leader, not to know or possess those qualities and that information that should make you a good leader. Indeed, you fall on your "position," your "rank," even your money to define who you are and to deflect those who kinda wonder about you. Listen, very simply put and very easily proven: Conservatives = Stupid. Liberal = Intelligent. It's built into the fabric- the definition, (unfortunately), of each party. Liberals believe in a intellectual freedom and progressive pursuits of intelligence for the good of all man. As we live in a GLOBAL fucking society, this becomes more and more important. Conservatism is about holding onto old values, old ideas, antiquated notions, the re-fusion of church and state, which is, last I looked UNCONSTITUTIONAL, institutional racism, institutional misogyny, institutional greed, institutional ignorance, blind patriotism, and a generally warped idea of "freedom" perpetuated by fear and the promise of only that which thinks it is the oppressed becoming the oppressor.

When I was young and somewhat liberal my mother taught me the wisdom of Winston Churchill: To be young and Conservative you have no heart, to be old and Liberal you have no brain. These words are still true today.

No. They're not. And that's the problem.

"Let us, on both sides, lay aside all arrogance.
Let us not, on either side, claim that we have
already discovered the truth. Let us seek it
together as something which is known to neither
of us. For then only may we seek it, lovingly and
tranquilly, if there be no bold presumption that it
is already discovered and possessed."

Palin is the ultimate political strip-tease, thrusting and rubbing her self all over a White House column. The dollars rain down and she gives them another sneak peek at what’s under that dress. See just how nasty America’s Top MILF will get for the cash at http://dregstudiosart.blogspot.com/2011/06/ecstasy-of-sarah-palin_15.html.
