Ah, won't she be in some debates coming up? Sexist treatment? Pleassseeeee. Why don't you address the sexist treatment of her by lots of feminists ranting on her choices!!!

Just another rant from liberal democrat news media.

Brown was born Alma Dale Campbell Brown in Ferriday, Louisiana, the daughter of former Louisiana Democratic State Senator, Secretary of State, and Insurance Commissioner James H. "Jim" Brown Jr., and Brown's first wife, artist Dale Campbell Brown . . .On September 1, 2008, Brown conducted a controversial interview with Tucker Bounds, a spokesman for Republican Presidential candidate John McCain concerning vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin. Brown questioned Palin's executive experience and asked for examples of decisions Palin had made as commander-in-chief of the Alaska National Guard. Brown asserted that Palin had just as much experience as Sen. Obama. Brown accused Bounds of sidestepping with his answers and repeated some of the same questions. Brown asserted that Sen. McCain had made a point of wanting a VP with a lot of experience, and that his selection of Palin seemed to abandon that principle. She asked Bounds to explain the decision on that basis. Bounds contended that Sen. McCain and Gov. Palin together had more executive experience than Sen. Obama and Sen. Biden combined.

And yet still no answer as to why the McCain camp is afraid to let Palin face the public and the press unprotected.

Gosh, I guess they forgot to post the whole story. Go figure.

Lots of feminists? How about MOST feminists? They hate the fact that a woman has finally made it to where they've been wanting a woman to be for decades and it's a Conservative Christian Republican!! I love it!

Yes, one debate that had to be re-structured at the insistance of the McCain camp to protect her from big, bad Biden.

Why don't you list one example of sexist treatment by a feminist ranting on Palin's choices?

Just one.

We're waiting.

Nope, just figured a husband wasn't as big an influence as the family you were raised in. Last time I checked Maria Shriver was still a Democrat.

Might want to run that assumption by Laura Bush.

Yes and that's up to her. Brown has not chosen to change parties. What's the point? She's a Democrat and that perspective shows in her reporting.

I didn't see any ranting about her choices in that piece. Ranting, yes -- but about Palin's lies, which seems only reasonable to me.

Next?

I'd also love to see some proof that Campbell Brown is a Democrat. I don't know about the rest of you, but my politics mesh far closer to those of my DH than those of my father. Funny that Brown was encouraging the McCain camp to let Palin stand on her own -- and for that she gets bashed. Isn't that exactly what she should be doing -- standing on her own?

I agree...let her go & do her thing, stop coddling her! I think she can take it!

In agreement on that one! Cut the coddling. Let her shine!
Will she be perfect? Nope.....none of them are.

I agree.

As far as Campbell's political affiliations. . .it must be top secret. but her actions speak for themselves.

You mean she's calling BS when she sees it? THAT makes her a Democrat?

I'll take that definition.

Another assumption and you know what they say about assumptions... .

I do feel better about Laura Bush -- based on your "assumptions" she's still a democrat with really rotten taste in men.

Prove to me that Brown isn't a Democrat and I'll recant what I said.

Huh?? You make an assumption based on the odd theory that a wife's political party affiliation is based on her parent's affiliation and want me to disprove it?? I don't think so.

My assumption wasn't based on her parent's affiliation. It's based on the biased way she covers the news. Apparently SNL gets it too.

Prove a negative? Nice try, but I don't think so.

How about if I say Sarah Palin is secretly a a Russian spy and defy you to prove she's not. Go ahead, I'm waiting.

Prove it.

You people sound like little children -- "Go ahead. Prove it." Gosh, grow up!

I would simply say there is a lack of evidence showing she is.

The same can not be said about Brown.

Excellent, you have evidence!

What is it? Specifically, please.

Sure. . .it's her behavior! Her news coverage is so slanted in favor of Obama that SNL even did a skit making fun of her.

what was the original question again?

Oh, okay.

Assumption: Governor Palin's a Russian spy. Proof: SNL said she said she can see Russia from her porch.

Oh, that Brown is outraged that Palin didn't meet with the press today. . .and we are suppose to buy into her mock outrage. I haven't seen the VP side of a ticket get this much attention since I can remember. They are really trying to steer clear of the whole McCain vs Obama comparison.

????

Making fun of her being able to see Russia doesn't have anything to do with being a spy.

Making fun of Brown drooling all over Obama is poking fun at that it's true.

But never mind. . .back to diverting this election to Obama vs Palin.

Why would the governor ever even mention her house's proximity to Russia if she wasn't sending a coded message to her supporters in the Kremlin.

Just as you point to an SNL skit as proof of Ms. Brown's political affiliation I've concuded that the OP who posted that Governor Palin is a spy is absolutely correct and the SNL skit proves it.

BTW, whenever you want to get back to the point of the OP without throwing in what even you must admit are silly, unfounded and dare I say diversionary attacks on the reporter let us know. Even some conservative posters on this thread have stated that they agree with Ms. Brown.

I pointed out the SNL skit because it was quicker and easier than dragging out a bunch of links to Brown interviews and articles that address the very same bias that many people agree they see coming from Brown. Frankly, because most on here wouldn't bother to read them and it would be a wasted effort.

Good for the people that agree with Brown. Personally, I think she looked like a idiot in that rant. If she'd like to have a opinion show like say. .. Rush Limbaugh does that appeal to people that somehow give a hoot what her opinion is. . .then people can line up to listen to her all they want. But she was giving her opinion sitting behind a newsdesk immitating a reporter. I didn't see the same outrage when Obama declined the townhalls. Gee. . .he must be hiding something too??

It's just all gotten waaaaaay beyond ridiculous.
