Is this fair? is Governor Palin getting the same treatment from the media? Read..and post

Last night it was reported that Governor Palin, after being pushed by the media, is releasing her medical records (or has already done so at the time of this blogging.) Her medical records will show, per Governor Palin, that she has had 5 children (there is news!) Yes, her medical records will be personal (very personal) but that is the downside of the job. The American people should know the health of its candidates — bad health can distract one from doing his or her job or even mean the person can’t do his or her job at all.

But here is the perplexing thing: the media pushed for Senator McCain’s medical records…thousands of pages were then shown to the media…Senator Biden likewise released his medical records…


….but what about Senator Obama? His doctor wrote 1 page - yes, 1 page - saying he is healthy. The media is not getting medical records of Senator Obama. Why is the media not pushing for his medical records? Why the satisfaction with just a 1 page summary??? Could not the MOTHER of 5 get the same treatment as Senator Obama from the media? Just ask for the 1 page summary of her health? or better, how about Senator Obama doing as the other 3 and releasing all his medical records ?

And yes, I am going to continue to push that the woman get the same treatment as the men.

What does her giving birth to 5 children have to do with it?

As far as I'm concerned, 1 page summary for her would be fine in my book... I haven't exactly seen anyone in the media flipping out over her health records.

Your forgetting she's gotten off on the wrong foot with the media by the way her campaign has continually sheltered her. So of course the media is going to think your hiding something.

Well, I don't think anyone in City Data HAS Obama's medical records so I think you may have to PUSH somewhere else.
And try not to babble , you said the same thing twice in your post


If Palin has had her medical records revealed hasn't she had the same treatment as the men?



You say: ""Yes, her medical records will be personal (very personal)""

Well, DUHHHHHHHH, they're medical records:ro lleyes:





What ARE you babbling about?

Yeah, right...she's attacked savagely and unfairly by the leftist media and she's supposed to talk to them? Why...so they can twist her words further? Now...where are the leftist media investigations into barry hussein osama's radical friends? Where are the leftist media's investigations into barry's relationship with fannie mae and freddie mac? I could go on with this list for days. Can you say double standard? Funny, it's just fine as long as the liberal is the one benefitting from it.

Obama is probably in the best shape of the lot of them, which is probably why his doctor just banged out a page summary on his health.

Why are these medical records even that big of a deal?

Unless she has a condition that requires further explanation, I think a one-page summary would be sufficient for Sarah Palin.

My, how offensive this post is. The poster was not babbling. I dare say you are, as always. Think it's called projection.
