So what?

'THE PRESS RAN WITH IT, OBAMA MENTIONED IT LAST NIGHT, but it isn't true:

The agent in charge of the Secret Service field office in Scranton said allegations that someone yelled “kill him” when presidential hopeful Barack Obama’s name was mentioned during Tuesday’s Sarah Palin rally are unfounded.

It's as if they're just making stuff up to make McCain and Palin look bad.'

Of course, even if it was true, it would be just fine. I counted exactly a zillion instances over the last eight years where Democrats and other nutjobs called for President George W Bush to be murdered/assasinated/crucified, and can't recall a single instance where the lazy media folks turned up even a diffident eyebrow. So it must be ok.

I can't believe that there are people out there who would have two sets of rules, one for Republicans and the other for Democrats. That would knock the foundations out from my world.
