... Sarah Palin more than I do, but the nancy boys at MSNBC bleating all over the screen about the Great Turkey Carnage is hilarious. This is a great caption: TURKEYS DIE AS GOVERNOR PALIN TAKES QUESTIONS FROM MEDIA Or was it: MEDIA DIE AS GOVERNOR PALIN TAKES QUESTIONS FROM TURKEYS. After she's sworn in in 2013, I hope President Palin arranges for a ritual turkey slaughter to be going on behind her at every press conference, if only during David Shuster's questions. Tim Blair has a good round-up of reaction . ...

The liberal web sites were on fire today, but not about Hillary Clinton's appointment as Secretary of State or Tim Geithner's elevation to the Treasury Department, or the six percent jump the Dow took in the last hour of trading. No, as so often happens, the liberal web sites were hysterical about...Sarah Palin. ...

MARK STEYN: “I didn’t think I could like Sarah Palin more than I do, but the nancy boys at MSNBC bleating all over the screen about the Great Turkey Carnage is hilarious.”

“Now, we’ve made every effort to sanitize the video of what happens next, but you still might want to consider getting the kids out of the room right now, and anyone who’s a little squeamish about where Thanksgiving dinner comes from.”
Because apparently, David Shuster thought that Thanksgiving turkeys came from the supermarket.
This is literally beyond parody.
For me, anyway. Thankfully, Tim Blair is up to the task. As is Ann Althouse.
Dissecting Leftism — ... Tim Blair has a good laugh at the lily-livered shrieks emanating from the Left over Sarah Palin's visit to a turkey slaughterhouse. How do they think turkey arrives on their Thanksgiving dinner plates? Let them all eat vegie-Turkey (presuming there is such a thing)! ...

Candy-ass goes mainstream

... linked the Althouse post again along with this gem from Tim Blair , I had not realized that the "candy-ass" commotion was not limited to animal rights activists. It's now mainstream. These are some of the headlines: TURKEYS DIE AS GOVERNOR PALIN TAKES QUESTIONS FROM MEDIA GOV. SARAH KEEPS TALKING WHILE TURKEYS GET SLAUGHTERED BEHIND HER GOV. PALIN APPARENTLY OBLIVIOUS TO TURKEY CARNAGE OVER HER SHOULDER Quips Blair, What did they expect her to do? Intervene?

No More Mister Nice Blog — ... local TV interview she gave with turkey slaughtering taking place in the background is more or less like John Cole's: While I can think of better photo ops, this is kind of a silly uproar. How exactly do folks think their food gets to them? Your t-bone is not born in shrink wrap. This isn't killing wolves from airplanes, a so-called sport that seems to appeal to out-of-state macho-man wannabes. This, for a lot of us, is dinner. And Tim Blair has a point: what's taking place is death, but there's no visible blood. As ...

MSNBC'S DAVID SHUSTER TAKES THE POINT ON "TURKEYGATE"
Ace of Spades HQ —
MSNBC'S DAVID SHUSTER TAKES THE POINT ON "TURKEYGATE" They just can't help themselves. Shuster (who urges that young viewers be shielded from the interview) also seems appalled that Palin had no worries over being filmed at the tragic turkey massacre site. Even worse bloodlusting bird-hater Palin admits shell actually cook a turkey for Thanksgiving. Among MSNBCs captions: TURKEYS DIE AS GOVERNOR PALIN TAKES QUESTIONS FROM MEDIA GOV. SARAH KEEPS TALKING WHILE TURKEYS GET SLAUGHTERED BEHIND HER GOV. PALIN APPARENTLY OBLIVIOUS TO TURKEY CARNAGE OVER HER SHOULDER ...
