Only two days on the air and already it appears as though CNN’s “Parker Spitzer” is going for a perfect record when it comes to inviting Elite Hollywoodists on to savage Sarah Palin. Last night it was Aaron Sorkin — who’s old man is quite the real American, donchaknow! Tonight it’s fading director Oliver Stone, who manages to make Sorkin look like a Tea Partier by comparison.

Stone not only calls Palin a “moron,” he intentionally and maliciously compares the former Alaskan Governor and her influential political movement to the anti-Semitic Father Coughlin and the Ku Klux Klan. By extension, he’s also labelling we unsophisticates who admire Palin as dupes, haters h8ers, or  both. And how effective is it for Mr. Jews-Dominate-The-Media to be referencing Coughlin — though that little piece of irony appears to have flown right by our hosts.

Color me not shocked. Stone is a destroyer. That’s what he does. He’s never built or ennobled anything in his life. Whatever inadequacies and insecurities he suffers from, they are what drives this once great director to constantly tear down — by whatever lies necessary, that which makes him feel ashamed. Once upon a time this dark quality worked as a muse that produced marvelous cinema. Today, as it burns out, it produces only junk like “W.” and “Wall Street 2″ — the work of an old man shouting, get off my lawn.

Knowing this, you have to expect that when confronted with someone as centered, solid, vibrant and unaffected as Sarah Palin, that a bitter, aging nihilist like Stone (or Letterman) is going to spew as much hateful poison in her direction as he can, and at every opportunity. What I didn’t expect, however, even from a Kathleen Parker (who made her name criticizing Palin), was that Stone would apparently be allowed to make such ugly, indefensible, and cruel statements without be challenged on them. And I say “apparently” because obviously we’re not seeing the entire interview. But by the time the clip ends, the discussion has moved way beyond the Klan comments. (more…)

Tonight: (more…)

Every article you read these days from the liberal media has a very clear message:   the Republican Party is dead and should be buried.  Conservatism is in shambles.  The Democrats have the upper hand and the correct solution for the country.  Tax and Spend is working.  The Stimulus is working.  Foreign powers love us.  All is happy in liberal land. 

I beg to differ.  In fact, I believe the evidence is stronger each day that the Republican Party is making inroads into the Democratic “majority.”  The election happened and Obama and the Democrats are in power.  We have to live with that for another 18 months.  But when one looks at the trends a new picture begins to develop. 

All evidence indicates that the country is going the other way and still leans center-right.  Look at what happened in Virginia yesterday.  In a hotly contested Democratic primary for governor, R. Creigh Deeds, a conservative Democrat, whooped an ex-head of the DNC and staunch supporter of the Clintons.  Deeds is about as far to the right as the Democratic Party gets.  He is so pro-gun that he supports concealed weapons in bars and nightclubs.  I’m not even sure if I go that far.

 Why did Deeds get the nomination?  Well, according to every article and news report, it is because the Virginia Democrats are afraid of losing the governorship in November to the Republican candidate.  Robert McDonnell is a staunch Republican Conservative and the Virginia populace is definitely to the right regardless of whether the state went with Obama.  A liberal Democrat is never going to win Virginia right now and probably never.  (more…)
