Sarah Palin made some "nasty cracks" about "bloggers" sitting in their mom's basement in their pajamas and "talking garbage" in comparison to the "mainstream media" that were uncalled for. Yes, I'm a blogger. Sometimes I might be sitting in my underwear in the basement (not my mom's, since she's long gone) but I DO "check my sources" and do my best to tell the truth and the whole truth, which most of the so-called ":mainstream media" does NOT. Nor do many bloggers on the liberal side. But she should not lump all bloggers together. There ARE some on BOTH sides who "go off half-cocked" on certain subjects, but the liberal media does it most of all. Some of us bloggers take it just as seriously as the IMAGE of the "mainstream media (an image which they do not live up to). We're not "silenced" by various liberal editors, since we're our own editors. We get to write the TRUTH, not what some editor sees as the truth (What's the difference between an editor and the writer anyway? Is the editor supposed to be more intelligent than the writer? If so, let the editor do the writing. Come to think of it, that's what bloggers do.). It's a minor thing, but important. I like Sarah. I think she'll make a fine president if she runs in 2012. I think she's the "future" of the Republican Party--or someone like her (If we can find anybody) But she does need to learn not to lump one group with another. (Just common sense)
