I have seen low, but wow this takes the cake. O’Donnell is engaging in a half truth.

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUgfizk4BHI]

And now for the truth..

Sarah Palin opposed the bailouts and has stated so. Sarah Palin was the VICE-presidential candidate which means that if the Presidential candidate takes a position so do you. Anyone who accepts the VP nomination knows this. Palin went back to her own views after the campaign was over.

Joe Biden had some different policy positions than Obama, Biden conformed.

Dick Cheney had disagreements with President Bush, especially on Scooter Libby and standing up to the administrations critics. Cheney conformed until he was out of office and is now on the offensive (and his approval numbers are going up).

John Edwards was more hawkish than John Kerry, Edwards conformed to the ticket.

Joe Lieberman had a great many policy differences with Al Gore, especially on Social Security policy, national defense and environmental policy. Lieberman argued for Al Gore’s positions in the debates. Lieberman assumed his old policy positions after the campaign was over. Did MSNBC find a little girl Lieberman supporter to grill over it?

Al Gore was further to the left than Bill Clinton, it is well known that they didn’t get along. Gore played the VP role as the VP role is expected to.

Dan Quayle had domestic policy differences with President Bush 41. I know this because I have talked with VP Quayle about this very subject. Quayle is a Reaganite and Bush 41 never was.

Bush 41 had differences with President Reagan.

LBJ hated JFK and reversed many of his policy positions after JFK was murdered.

Question of the day: why the double standard when it comes to former VP candidate Palin?

UPDATE – Norah O still going after young girl. Hotair.com has details HERE. Red, White and Conservative has more HERE.

Author’s Note – This really does speak volumes about just how off the beaten path MSNBC has become. They have just created a new “Joe the Plumber” and now they have to destroy this girl as fast as they can before she becomes a full blown celebrity.

Norah and you quacks at MSNBC should pick on someone your own age. If you want to debate someone so bad why don’t you try someone like this writer (Chuck Norton) or our Editor in Chief Micheal who have some training in journalism, economics and poli sci? Of course the answer is obvious, right now you are debating a child and you are still losing, as today the young girl has come up with the same answer I presented above.

    Jay_C Thanks for that CFN, It is amazing how far those with P.D.S. will go. I saw at another progressive site, people making fun of the girl and the guy in the video correcting themselves on the words they chose, with a conversation thread about this for about 25 entries, it was really sad to see a focus on such minutiae.. It is also sad to see, like you said, P.D.S-ers playing "gotcha" with what Palin said during the campaign running for VP (as you pointed out this is what all VP's do while running), vs. what she really believes, now that her "campaign muzzle" has been removed. Why can't they talk about her stances...POST muzzling? Naw, now they will talk about anything but that. On top of that, she is now "dangerous" as well.. "GQ Magazine is telling a tale of two leaders. On the one side you have Barack Obama, champion of the left, leader of the mainstream media; GQ's Leader of the Year. On the other side you have Sarah Palin, pariah of the right, dangerous and poisonous to the American way according to an interview in the very same publication....Think I'm kidding? I couldn't make this garbage up." http://newsbusters.org/blogs/terry-trippany/2009/11/19/gq-magazine-barack-obama-leader-year-sarah-palin-dangerous-poisonous "In a fundraising e-mail sent out Friday, Organizing for America -- the community organizing component of the DNC founded in the wake of Barack Obama’s inauguration -- said it is aiming to raise $500,000 in the next week "to help push back against Sarah Palin and her allies." "Right now, Sarah Palin is on a highly publicized, nationwide book tour, attacking President Obama and his plan for health reform at every turn," says the e-mail, signed by OFA Director Mitch Stewart. "It's dangerous. Remember, this is the person who coined the term 'Death Panels' -- and opened the flood gates for months of false attacks by special interests and partisan extremists." http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2009/11/20/politics/politicalhotsheet/entry5723675.shtml Ooooh, book tours and opinions.... very VERY dangerous!!! God I hate hypocrisy! And furthermore, whatever happened to... "I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you’re not patriotic. We should stand up and say we are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration." Hillary Clinton

    Jeb Grilling seems too strong a characterization of what O'Donnell did. She asked a question, the girl engaged, then she followed up. Neither the girl nor her father seemed put off and the girl handled herself quite well. I don't agree with her (parents) expressed opinions but she is definitely on the more politically articulate end of middle schoolers and should be proud of her performance as I am sure her family is.

    Liam Steele I think Nora should be very proud of herself, she beat up on a middle schooler. Right on baby, that will put this chick in her place, how dare she have an opinion that is contrary to the left wing hatchet bitches.

    Greg Clark Real good, Norah. Ambushing a 17-year old; I'm sure your camera crew was high-fiving you after this coup. Shows you that degrees from Georgetown don't guarantee class. I wouldn't mind if O'Donnell would also do this to an Obamanoid at some point, but don't hold your breath.

    J.K. Wow talk about your bias reporting. I watched the interview and saw this woman try to trip up a child and walk away when an adult made sense clearly stating what the young lady could not articulate. And then she made a totally insulting and unsubstantiated false statement about Sarah Palin supporters not understanding the issues! One issue that needs to be fixed is the slanderous and bias reporting of the liberal media! What ever happened to integrity in reporting? I gues sit died when a solcialist ran for president.

    Jack I get embarrassed watching PSMSNBC at this point. They barely have an audience anymore, and it will continue to evaporate as long as condescending hacks like O'Donnell and Shuster are given free reign there.

      Jo S Oh my God ...you are so right!!. O'Donnell is a hack to the nth degree but yet MSNBC keeps her around. Do you ever wonder why? I certainly do! I think we should check DNA on her 3 children to see who they really belong to.....what a way to keep a job!! Just doing some O'Donnell type reporting and what will it get me? Certainly not the money she's making and my story probably has more truth to it than O'Donnell's pieces! Jo S
