I don't know about "defending Obama", but to be fair to tick, I seem to recall MSNBC pretty much fellating him all the way into office. And I certainly have no allegiance to either party over the other.
By the same token, I think Fox was trying to usher things in the opposite direction. Of course both of those things were hardly unexpected.
And Sarah Palin, God bless her, is a complete imbecile. I wish her the best, far away from a position of power in this country.
