I haven't posted any editorials on here. I have posted some on my facebook but I am thinking of adding some to here. Since I am sure people are tired of me taking up their minifeed with my liberal bias. I don't think I will add a whole lot of commentary but maybe I will.
So here are a couple that I currently like:
Pulling the Curtain on Palin by E. J. Dionne Jr.
Rick Davis, McCain's campaign manager, gave the game away when he said on "Fox News Sunday" that she would not meet with reporters until they showed a willingness to treat her "with some level of respect and deference."
Deference? That's a word used in monarchies or aristocracies. Democracies don't give "deference" to politicians. When have McCain, Obama, Biden or, for that matter, Hillary Clinton asked for deference? Read Article Here.
Hold Your Heads Up By Bob Herbert
Why liberals don’t stand up to this garbage, I don’t know. Without the extraordinary contribution of liberals — from the mightiest presidents to the most unheralded protesters and organizers — the United States would be a much, much worse place than it is today.

What's Fair Game With Sarah Palin? by Anne E. Kornblut
What if, simply, the roles had been reversed?
Howard Wolfson, Clinton's former communications director, said he is confident that the Republicans "would have attempted to destroy her" if she were in Palin's shoes -- as, in fact, some Republicans tried to do to Clinton throughout the 1990s, and were preparing to do again if she had won the Democratic nomination this year.
