			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>OK&#8230;this is a lesson in hypocrisy.</p>
<p>Yes, Eminem is only looking for attention.  He&#8217;s all about creating controversy so people will look at him.  I do listen to Eminem, and I like the music.  At times, ol&#8217; Marshal Mathers is a little over the edge.  There are many targets in Eminem&#8217;s music, including this song, and that&#8217;s not the issue here.</p>
<p>I like Sarah Palin.  Contrary to the beliefs of Tina Fey and various other media moonbats, she is an effective leader <em>with experience</em>.  She has been a target of the Liberal hate machine since her nomination.  The Left has some nasty names for her and the hate spills out of their eyeballs.</p>
<p>People, in general, lash out at what they fear or misunderstand&#8230;the guilty defend themselves the loudest.</p>
<p>Now that Eminem has a little diddy about the Guv, we have more attacks on the lady from the north&#8230;.and no one is angry.  Why?</p>
<p><object width="350" height="288" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/2qZs70tLSXw" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2qZs70tLSXw" /></object></p>
<p>This is misogyny and objectivity&#8230;is it not?</p>
<p>The Liberal media just passes by without a whimper of worry&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.alternet.org/blogs/peek/135698/eminem_wants_to_be_nailin%27_palin/" target="_blank">Alternet.org has this to say</a> about the story&#8230;which is nothing.  But, they have a <a href="http://www.alternet.org/tags/misogyny/" target="_blank">pile of stories about the treatment of women</a> in general.  So is Sarah not a woman?</p>
<p><a href="http://www.now.org/cgi-bin/search.cgi?q=eminem&amp;s=RPD&amp;ul=%2Fpress%2F&amp;cmd=Please+wait..." target="_blank">NOW&#8230;.says nothing</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.feminist.org/news/newsbyte/news_results.asp?Body=eminem&amp;Submit=GO" target="_blank">Feminist Majority&#8230; says nothing</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.feminist.com/news/" target="_blank">Feminist.com&#8230;says nothing</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://search.womensmediacenter.com/cgi-bin/ts.pl?index=434059&amp;query=eminem&amp;button=SEARCH" target="_blank">Women&#8217;s Media&#8230;says nothing</a>.  Although, they&#8217;re happy to bash on Bill O&#8217;Reilly for a <a href="http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/937/t/8011/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=26651" target="_blank">little snark about Helen Thomas</a> and calling out a <a href="http://mediamatters.org/" target="_blank">Leftist media group hell bent on censoring opposing views</a>.</p>
<p>Here lies the hypocrisy&#8230; these groups are created in the name of women and rights.  They call out sexist pigs when it fits their agenda.  Sarah Palin does not fit their agenda&#8230;and, it may be due to my ignorance&#8230; but I really don&#8217;t understand why.  Umm&#8230;successful, hardworking mom, doing it all in a leadership position striving for the highest office in the land&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230;and Republican <em>(oh, maybe that&#8217;s it)</em></p>
<p>If this was Michelle Obama, how the coverage change?  What about Hillary Clinton?  <em>(yes, I&#8217;ll send you the mental bleach to erase those images)</em></p>
<p>I don&#8217;t like what Eminem has done with this video, and he needs to be called out on his antics.  Or completely ignored.</p>
<p>But the point here&#8230;for anyone who thinks there is not a Liberal bias and agenda in the media, take a good look at this story and the lack of <em>Obama-rage</em>.</p>
