Breaking News! McCain Advisor: “This nonsense is over.”

[Contrary1]

In the words of my hero, Bluto Blutarsky:

"Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?
Hell no!

And it ain't over now. 'Cause when the goin' gets tough...
the tough get goin'!"


"ST. PAUL, Minn. - John McCain’s campaign on Wednesday angrily called for an end to questions about its review of Sarah Palin’s background, deriding a “faux media scandal designed to destroy the first female Republican nominee” for vice president.

“This nonsense is over,” declared senior campaign adviser Steve Schmidt in a written statement.

The statement stood out for its admission that Palin is under siege — it condemns “this vetting controversy” — and for its attempt to blunt questions about how rigorously McCain and his campaign explored the background of a candidate who may get the nation’s second most powerful job. It also suggested that Palin is a victim of gender bias in the media.

“The McCain campaign will have no further comment about our long and thorough process,” Schmidt said, lashing out at “the old boys’ network” that he says runs media organizations..."

2. Republican fucktard - have you heard of freedom of the press?

[Hubert Flottz]

3. “The McCain campaign will have no further comment "

We shall see...Just going to sit there and take it I guess?

They can sure dish it out though. I hope Max is somewhere laughing his ass off.

4. Yeah, Lott mentioned Palin and Thatcher in the same breath today

I almost lost it.

You can't just thrust someone on to the national stage like that and say "Here's your new hero America". Jesus H. Christ!

We still have a representational democracy right? We still are supposed to know about our leaders right? That's what campaigning is all about. Obama has been doing it and has gone through a whole lot of shit during the process.

Welcome to the campaign Palin.

Boo-freakin' hoo.

5. And who are the assholes who released her name to detract from Obama and the DNC?

- Could they have released it b/f the DNC? Yes

-Could they have anticipated the media hurricane? Yes

-Did they consider that releasing it as a natural hurricane was imminent? Yes

So who's really playing the media game now? Answer. Palin herself.

7. And, ladies & gents..is how you "do" it..

By announcing they will not talk about it, it's over..UNTIL there is something SO explosive that they don't need to evcen be consulted for comment..

who's still in love with Perky and got Loreena pregnant when she broke up with Truck because he was fooling around with Starla who wasn't really Starla but a lookalike from Anchorage who only wanted to take over Sarah's WolfSkin Boutique and ended up marrying Roscoe for his money...

[sicksicksick_N_tired]

12. “the old boys’ network” tagged Governor Palin as a shield against those,...

,...challenging their power AND THEY KNOW IT.

It's so disgustingly OBVIOUS!

Those poor good ole' RICHER THAN FUCK boys who have NOT BEEN EXPOSED as the party without diversity, the party that exploits ALL THE TIME!!!

The elitist among those "old boys network" are the ones playing this game. They have been exposed IN SPITE OF THEIR COMMISSION OF MASS FRAUD AGAINST THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. They aren't going to quit ploying for expanded power. To the contrary, they will do ANYTHING to win. The fascist effers!!!
