The Left (A Case Study in the Double Standard)
Published Tuesday, September 02, 2008 by Editor | E-mail this post 
Since the Left and the Media establishment anointed Barack Obama as their standard bearer for the November election, the hypocrisy has been practically immeasurable. For month Hillary Clinton spoke of her experience and her supposed ability to lead from day one. Obama's supporters poo pooed this argument, rallying behind his change mantra. Now we see the Audacity of Hope has become the Audacity of Hypocrisy. Obama and his camp have attacked and belittled Alaska Governor Palin as being inexperinced (particulary on the matter of foreign policy).
As any Clinton supporter can attest, Obama is the least experienced Democratic Candidate for president in the entire history of the Democratic Party, less experience than William Jennings Bryan in 1896, less experience than Alton Parker in 1904, less experince than John Davis in 1924 and while the 1872 nominee, Horace Greeley served only 1 year in Congress, Greeley had served as a prominent political leader and newspaper editor for years before his illfated run.
Inspite of Obama's non-existence in all things related to political experience, he and hsi team have been vocal in chiding the experience of, Palin. If serving as a governor is not a suffieint stepping stone for the presidency, then perhaps someone should tell four of the last five presidents.
On top of this heaping plate of hypocrsy, we now hear rubblings of attacks on Palin's children and her family. Imagine the outcry if there were attacks on Obama's children. Obama to his credit has slammed these attacks, but the attacks continue and of course the media is along for the ride.
