Barone: Media mad that Palin didn't have an abortion

[Crankie Avalon]

Political analyst Michael Barone has an interesting explanation for the media's coverage of Sarah Palin. In a talk he gave Tuesday, Barone said:

The liberal media attacked Sarah Palin because she did not abort her Down syndrome baby. They wanted her to kill that child. ... I'm talking about my media colleagues with whom I've worked for 35 years.

Barone has apologized for his remarks, which had prompted some attendees to head for the exits. In an e-mail to Politico, Barone said he "was attempting to be humorous and ... went over the line."

2. Well when we have expletives being uttered on the air regularly

does this comment truly suprise you, or the lack of action taken by anyone of authority at all?

3. Barone is a talking Whoopee Cushion.

Gas bag.

4. And how does he feel about Ms. Palin recklessly endangering the life

of said child with all of her bone-headed decisions after her amnio fluid started leaking?
