The Media Is Going Nuts Over This...

For three long years the media, with few exceptions, spent millions trying to excoriate and smear Sarah Palin. And when it was announced that 24,000 of her emails would be released, the media licked their chops in anticipation of finally having solid evidence that Palin is the evil dum-dum they believe she is. The New York Times and Washington Post even solicited the assistance of readers in trying to dig dirt from the emails.

Suddenly, the media seems to be rather quiet on the subject. Except for AP which, in spite of their obvious liberal bent, at least had enough honor to print this today:

"JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — There are no bombshells, no "gotcha" moments.

"The emails of Sarah Palin — more than 24,000 pages of them released Friday by the state of Alaska from her first two years as governor — paint a picture of an image-conscious, driven leader, closely involved with the day-to-day duties of running the state and riding herd on the signature issues of her administration.

"The messages give a behind-the-scenes look at a politician who burst onto the national stage after serving as Wasilla mayor and less than two years as Alaska governor. They show a woman striving to balance work and home, fiercely protective of her family and highly sensitive to media coverage. She expressed a sometimes mothering side with aides but also was quick to demand answers or accountability."

WOW! The article goes on to point out that she was hard-hitting on important issues, and dealt with them effectively. Apparently, she EARNED her 80% approval rating while governor.

It must really grate on the lamestream media that instead of finding proof that they were right about Palin, it appears the opposite is true - that she is a hard-working, dedicated, solid leader.

What do you wanna bet that Tina Fey does not do a skit about these new revelations
