    How do you figure? What kind of "tinfoil hat" stuff are you talking about?
    Ayers wrote Obama's book!


    Obama is really Malcolm X's love child!

    I've advanced neither of those theories and, further, haven't seen any of them given any credence in any of the blogs I read.

    But, how 'bout this from Daily Kos!

    Final GOTV Push: No Time for Shyness

    Just a bit weird, if you ask me.

    Then, if you take into consideration all the "tin foil" hat stuff raised about Vice Presidential Candidate Palin and her son Trig -- by some fairly "reputable" leftwing blogs...I think y'all take the prize on "tin foil" hat crap.

    What's weird about it?

    What's weird is that you read the Daily Kos more closely than any lliberal here.

    While I don't know that a presidential campaign -- acting as a non-governmental en y -- can do anything to actually interfere with First Amendment rights of a person acting on behalf of another campaign (campaigns can't MAKE law, after all), I'm sure that the decisions that the press makes in characterizing Palin's speech are protected from any governmental infringement by the First Amendment. If Palin doesn't like that, her recourse is to argue that the press is wrong -- if she's right, is her recourse to have the government create a law that forbids the press from mischaracterizing her view? Of course not. , for that matter, if Palin believes that she's right, that the press is maliciously wrong, and that the press is injuring her in some manifest way, her recourse is to seek damages for libel or slander -- not to whine for misapplication of the First Amendment.

    You need to understand how the law works to do that... apparently she doesn't...
