Here we go again. The NYT as mentioned more than once on this blog never fails to deliver. That is if delivery means an overload of reports on one side of an issue. The left must be disturbed about their chances in the fall election as some reports suggest with all the noise they are making about her. From a brief search on NYT stories about Obama and Biden and Ayers and Rezko it appears they offer only other accounts of the connections briefly with no in depth reporting on the significance of these relationships and the Obama/Biden ticket’s qualifications for President and Vice-President. If this conclusion is flawed the NYT is of course free to comment.

But they cannot print enough abouit Sarah Palin. It is unlikely that the McCain campaign was unaware of either the investigation into what is called ‘troopergate’ or the pregnancy that is in the news all over. It is unclear whether an item about Mr Palin was known and even more unclear why the NYT would mention it. They indicate Mr Palin had a OWI 22 years ago. If he is in his mid-forties then this was when he was in his early twenties. If the left gives Bill Clinton a pass on his quote that ‘ I tried it but I didn’t inhale’, then they did not even have to mention that the husband of a Vice-Presidential nominee had an OWI ticket over two decades ago.

Well, gee Wally, we’re not sure if the McCain camp vetted her properly and OMG this is a statement about something in the election and gee whiz we have to do something to counter all the charges about Obama and Ayers and Biden and Rezko. Of course their treatment of her is better than some of the other commentators. But the NYT is still fish wrap.

Disclosures on Palin Raise Questions on Vetting Process

By ELISABETH BUMILLER
Published: September 1, 2008

On Monday morning, Ms. Palin and her husband, Todd, issued a statement saying that their 17-year-old unmarried daughter, Bristol, was five months pregnant and that she intended to marry the father.

Among other less attention-grabbing news of the day: it was learned that Ms. Palin now has a private lawyer in a legislative ethics investigation in Alaska into whether she abused her power in dismissing the state’s public safety commissioner; that she was a member for two years in the 1990s of the Alaska Independence Party, which has at times sought a vote on whether the state should secede; and that Mr. Palin was arrested 22 years ago on a drunken-driving charge.
