OK, I'm travelling, and so I'm at the mercy of my hotel for news.  Ordinarily, I would no more watch CNN, the Clinton News Network, or Collaborator News Network (take your pick) than I would watch Crazy Keith's rantings on MSNBC.  But I'm stuck.  So, my expectations are pretty low.  But I have to admit, even with expectations as low as that, I'm just plain dumbfounded. 

 

CNN just ran a story in which some reporter had to travel to some tiny little island that is the closest point in the U.S. to Russia.  The point of the story, of course, was to dis Gov. Sarah Palin.  The island (Little something or other, I didn't catch the name, Google Map it) is just a few miles from Big something or other, which is in Russia.  It's a native Alaskan village with no running water or TV.  So the CNN news clown goes there to ask the people if they believe that being Governor of the State of Alaska gives Gov. Palin any street cred for having foreign policy experience.  Big surprise, they don't think it does.  Most of them weren't even aware she's the nominee of the Republican Party for Vice President of the United States.  I bet none of them have ever heard of CNN either.  Did I mention, they don't have TV?

 

Can someone help me out here?  Does anyone remember seeing a similar story, where some news dork went to a trailer park in Arkansas or Georgia to ask the residents there if they believed either Governor Clinton or Governor Carter had any foreign policy experience when they were running for President?  I don't.

 

By the way, does anyone think it's occurred to CNN that Gov. Palin is actually running for Vice President, not President?  And do you think it has registered with the geniuses in the MSM that the Republican candidate for Vice President is actually more qualified to hold the office of President than that Illinois state Senator that the other party has nominated?

 

I swear, sometimes I think we live in a world turned upside down.  Is there such a thing as logic on the left anymore?
