    Getting it from both ends (figuratively)

    What shocks me about the McCain-Palin campaign's reaction to this report is how illogical they have been in their response. On the one hand, they claim that the report shows she did nothing wrong; therefore, they argue, she is totally off the hook. But on the other hand, they claim that the report's conclusions are invalid because the investigation was too tainted by partisanship. One wants to stand on top of a tall object with a megaphone, yelling, "What the hell are you talking about!? THIS MAKES NO SENSE!" I guess that's why you have a blog.
