Let's see 'Institute' study on Obama

To begin with, I would like to ask Richard Cohen and his ilk why they hate Sarah Palin so much? I just read his 800-plus word column trashing her from one end to the other, except for the few lines he used to glorify our commander in chief.

He wants to start an Institute for the Study of Sarah Palin. Every liberal publication sent an army of reporters to Alaska to find every bit of dirt they could on this woman. Now he wants to start an Institute to really find something on her.

I wonder if it ever crossed Cohen's mind to start an Institute for the Study of Barack Obama. Would we have found out anything about his ties to ACORN or Bill Ayres or his yes vote, while a state senator, to allow a baby to be put into a closet to die after it survived a botched abortion? One of only two yes votes, I might add.

You extol his ability to deal with foreign heads of state, and yet never mention his abominable record on the homefront. Seven billion dollars of stimulus money to help create jobs, the bulk of which is still sitting in the U.S. Treasury. The jobless rate soaring. The national debt too huge to even comprehend.

The cap and trade Bill, which is nothing more than a huge tax on the American people. The health care bill that I don't think will ever see the light of day unless there is a provision for government funded abortions. These are the issues on the minds of most Americans, not how low Sarah Palin might bow before the Japanese emperor.
