AP Hypocrite Uncovers Republican Hypocrisy

This is not a parody, but the first part of an actual editorial denouncing the Palins by Ted Anthony of AP:

People: Make up your minds.
For two days, the chorus from Republicans on TV news and in the halls of the convention has been resounding: Back off and let the Palin family be. "That's out of bounds," said Minnesota's Republican governor, Tim Pawlenty. "There's no need to be intrusive and pry into that."
Yet Wednesday found the following scenes unfolding:
_Sarah Palin's pregnant, unmarried 17-year-old daughter and probable future son-in-law stood in a nationally televised, politically packaged airport receiving line to meet and greet the Republican candidate for president.
_The extremely cute and bubbly Piper Palin, 7, made her debut on her mother's behalf, appearing in a video on John McCain's daughter's blog. "Vote for my mommy and John McCain," she said, giggling as Meghan McCain grinned.
_Bristol Palin and her 18-year-old boyfriend, Levi Johnston, sat and held hands as they watched the Alaska governor deliver an acceptance speech that, in its opening minutes, focused heavily on her family and children. Later, the family — including Johnston — ascended the stage, basked in an extended ovation and waved.
Huh? The Republican message about the Palin offspring comes across as contradictory: Hey, media, leave those kids alone — so we can use them as we see fit.
If you doubt this scenario, consider this: On Wednesday morning, a teenage boy from Alaska stood in a receiving line on an airport tarmac, being glad-handed by the potential next president of the United States — because he got his girlfriend pregnant. TV cameras were lined up in advance. The mind boggles.

An Obamunist hack accuses Saracuda of abusing her kids by not hiding them in the attic along with her daughter's fiancé, while at the same time participating in a despicable tabloid smear campaign against them by pushing the story, NEVER MIND SARAH, BRISTOL IS PREGNANT. This same MSM hack denounces others as hypocrites. The mind boggles, all right.

What he's saying is, "If a politician has a family, the media has a right to destroy it."

Why does this guy look like Tim Curry in Rocky Horror?

Sorry about the following language, but I've had enough:

Hey Ted. You are a punk, and I don't like punks.

You shoot your mouth of a lot behind a computer screen. How about meeting me, one on one and saying that stuff? I'm not a big guy, so it shouldn't be all that scary for you, unless you are as big a pussy as I think you are. Your photo looks like the typical fat fuck "journalist" who sits in the dark with his computer and trashes children.

Come on punk. Any time, any where. Or are you just a chicken-shit mudslinger who picks on kids? How about it, punk? Answer this post and I'll make sure you get my phone number and we'll make plans. Come on punk. Prove to the world you aren't a coward AND an asshole.

realize that no matter what palin did, she would be wrong. if she hid them, they would complain, if she hung them out, they would complain. the game is to complain, not actually to have a meritocritous point.

Ted,

Dude, you really need to cut down on the cheeseburgers...the fat content is clogging your brain (not to mention your waist). Just how many times did the Klintons trot out Chelsea at public forums? Yet it was taboo for you guys to report on her, just as it is with the Obamers. Are you really that stupid that you don't see the double standard? Do you think we don't notice? Ted, fooling stupid people is no accomplishment and is a telling summary of your entire profession.

I wonder how far I could kick Teddy's typewriter up his ass with my size 11R combat boot?

If I were Sarah Palin, I would watch Piper like a hawk or even get a restraining order from that freakin' moonbat Ted. He looks like the molesting type ("extremely cute?"). Besides, the pic of Ted looks like he has his "Little Teddy" in his typerwriter.

It looks like he is ready to blow.

Posted by: Moonbat Investigator General at September 4, 2008 4:36 PM

C'mon Ted. I know you or some of your feverish, no-life surrogates read this stuff.

I was NOT FOOLING. You pick on kids. In the press. You, a grown man (more or less). You're a gutless punk.

Show your friends you have a TINY bit of guts. Take me up on my offer. Defend yourself one on one with me. No weapons, just bare hands. You're real brave to sling mud at kids. How about showing as much guts with me? Well, punk? A lot of people read this, and I'm calling you out. I'm not very tall or heavy. I'm older than you, too.

DO YOU WANT TO PROVE HOW BIG A GUTLESS COWARD YOU ARE BY NOT RESPONDING? HOW ABOUT IT TEDDY BOY? YOU GUTLESS PUNK!

Posted by: matt at September 4, 2008 4:53 PM

Is it me or is Teddy clinging to his typerwriter like southern conservatives cling to their guns and religion?

Posted by: Moonbat Inspector General at September 4, 2008 5:27 PM

I would say something bad about this guy but I was brought up not to make fun of the mentally-challenged.

Posted by: IOpian at September 4, 2008 5:45 PM

Ted, Sarah'cuda says she will be your friend (only one?). You must have "special needs," hum?

I Googled Ted Anthony,just for a laugh.

oops. Mandarin Chinese. Sorry.

Posted by: Moonbat Inspector General at September 4, 2008 6:40 PM

Well...it's been hours, and that GUTLESS, KID-DEFAMING PUNK TED doesn't say a thing. Where are his trolls? Are they hiding with Ted, waiting for some seven year olds to bad-mouth?

HEY TED, you ARE as big a pussy as I thought.

(Once again, the language is regrettable, but grown ups who slime children in public get under my skin.)

Posted by: matt at September 4, 2008 6:47 PM

Isn't that exactly what Obama did by asking people to lay off his wife and kids, then parading them on tv and celebrity mags?

Posted by: BURNING HOT at September 4, 2008 8:23 PM

And he attacks a woman, what a frickin pansy.

Posted by: joe at September 4, 2008 11:40 PM

Politicians ALWAYS trot out their families for photo ops. It's nothing new, and there's nothing wrong with it. What about Obama and his family in that TV tabloid interview?

What is appalling is when the media uses the children and their problems as a way of bashing the candidate. Would Teddy approve of the media jumping on a (hypothetical) story about one of Obama's children getting into a fight at school and using that incident to prove his unfitness for both parenting and public office? It's completely and totally ridiculous.

Posted by: Pam at September 5, 2008 6:22 AM

Pam, you are right. However, Ted is a wuss. Even his trolls won't say anything. I'm here, ready to meet any of them at any time, face to face. But suddenly, when they don't have kids to pick on, they get real quiet.

Gutless punks.
