Like Obama, Palin Faces Internet Lies

Barack Obama and Sarah Palin have one thing in common: Both have been assailed by Internet bloggers who don't let a little thing like the truth or facts get in the way of their allegations.

The litany of Internet-circulated lies and half-truths about both is long.

Some have done their fact-checking, however, and refute many of the claims made by bloggers. Read the story at http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0908/13307.html.

Welcome, Liberal Democrats

A hearty Oklahoma welcome today to the liberal Democrats who have been sent our way by liberal bloggers, including Daily Kos, to vote in our online polls.

At the Democrats of Oklahoma Community Forum, administrator Jane Luttrell and others are clucking over their clever votes for Fox News in our poll about which network has been the least fair to Sarah Palin. That they admit (?) watching Fox is startling news. It's demonstrative of the mindset of these folks that they feel the need to play these kinds of games.

That our obscure state blog site draws such attention flatters us.

Hillary Supporters Turn On Obama

From Assorted Sources ~ We knew it. That's what some of Hillary Clinton's most ardent supporters say privately now, after John McCain stunned the political world with his unorthodox choice of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his running mate, thus stealing the political play story from Barack Obama and empahsizing Obama's failure to pick Clinton as his running mate.

From liberal bloggers to unnamed friends of Hillary, the theme is the same: McCain stole Obama's thunder...Obama blundered when he didn't pick Hillary...Joe Biden isn't smart enough to face Palin and deal with her without putting his foot in his mouth....

"We knew it," posted one blogger on a national tv network site about a story showing Palin's selection had spurred McCain fundraising. "Obama gave them the opening, and they took it."

Democrat slime-tossers, meanwhile, are going after Palin and her family in attacks that, thus far, seem only to be further energizing Republicans and fueling even more enthusiasm for the small-town-mayor-turned-governor-turned-vice-presidential-nominee.
