"Fox and Hens (A Terrible Week for the Media)"

By Clarice Feldman

"As we draw nearer to the midterm elections and what still promises to be a crushing defeat for the Democrats, the Democrats themselves refuse to campaign on the issues, preferring to rely on every bit of manufactured slime they can use. Their media allies are trying their best to help, but the effort is failing, leaving more of them with egg on their faces and the foxy challengers laughing. Foxiest of all is still Sarah Palin, who said that after the election, we can "party like it's 1773."

"History Bowl Final: World's Stupidest Wingnut 1773, you" twittered lefty blogger Markos Moulitsas (kos). Gwen Ifill, the PBS anchor who parked not only her thumb but also her entire ample self on the scales when she "moderated" the Palin/Biden debate, doing her best to protect the Delaware dingbat from his countless misstatements, joined in: "Ummm.what? Sarah Palin: party like its 1773.""
