Okay, I know that the NY Post is a partisan tabloid rag unfit for use even as toilet paper, but come on, [QUOTE=NYPost] [PARTY POOPER Another liberal crybaby for Dem Clintons](http://www.mediaite.com/online/ny-post-welcomes-clinton-granddaughter-another-liberal-crybaby/) [/QUOTE] Really? The kid is a _day old_, you scumfuckers. There’s no excusing pulling a newborn into your web of hate. ---

They don’t know that. After all, Clintons are smarter than they are. ---

As Post headlines go, that’s actually not bad. Not too far from clever, actually. For the 25 or so years I’ve been aware of the Post’s existence, I have despised that fucking Alexander Hamilton. Sorry, dude. Your creation, you get the blame. Not fair, I know, but fuck your federalist ass and the paper you wiped it with. ---

Don’t be repetitive and redundant! We’ve talked about that, over and over and over! ---

Both sides do it. Surely you remember the Huffington Post’s headline when Palin’s baby was born, “Another 'tard Joins the GOP!” ---

I’m mainly just amused the Post felt it needed to remind its readership what political party Bill and Hillary Clinton belong to. ---

Juvenile and insulting, NY Post. But of course, both sides do it, **Lobohan** ’s contrary entreaties notwithstanding. And this is one of the the few things Democrats did better. “Sarah Palin Faked Her Pregnancy!” Every bit as false, but not nearly so identifiable as such. ---

> [@Czarcasm](#): > > Which major metropolitan paper had _that_ headline? Yeah. I don’t remember the Newark Star-Ledger running anything similar. I certainly don’t recall the Boston Globe or the Denver Post or the Miami Herald mocking the Bush daughters or the Palins. New York Times editors would probably resign before writing such clap-trap. Even the New York Daily News, the chief rival of the New York Post, has not, to my knowledge, done such a thing. I want evidence for this particular tu quoque. ---

(2011) That looks like a heckuva lot of analysis on something that’s really only the business of Palin and her family, barring potential charges if Palin’s behaviour endangered Trig.
