Since accepting Sen. John McCain’s (R-AZ) offer to be his running mate, Gov.

John McCain’s camp is attacking the media for having the audacity to question Sarah Palin’s foreign policy experience, even though — as the GOP talking points go — her stellar qualifications include being a “commander in chief” (of the Alaskan National Guard) and living in a state that borders Russia. The Republican push back will undoubtedly work, as foreshadowed in this story today from Howard Kurtz of the Washington Post: . . . ...

Using the words “absurd,” “ridiculous,” and “preposterous,” Grizzlies general manager Chris Wallace refuted an assertion on HoopsWorld.com today that the Grizzlies are interested in trading Javaris Crittenton to the Orlando Magic for the rights to Spanish forward Fran Vasquez in what would essentially be a cost-cutting move. Wallace talked to Beyond the Arc via cell phone from the Athens airport, where he landed today for a vacation, and characterized the HoopsWorld report as “reaching for straws.” “We’ve never had a conversation with Orlando about Fran Vasquez and we have no interest in Fran Vasquez,” Wallace said. The Hoops World piece read, in part: Quote: The Grizzlies have been exploring ways to get even further below the minimum salary number; such as trading Javaris Crittenton to Orlando for Fran Vasquez's rights and a future draft pick. Vasquez counts against the cap and the NBA minimum, but no dollars have to be paid out. The Grizz were also said to be exploring ways to get a hold of Nenad Krstic before he opted for Europe in a similar cost cutting move, get his rights let him walk to Europe, get an additional $2 million off the books. Wallace also denied the core allegation of the piece, that the Grizzlies are seeking a way to bring their salary obligations for the coming season to the league minimum. “That is not a concept for us,” Wallace said. “We don’t have a goal to be at the minimum.” Wallace further commented on the p ...

*Palin provides a 'perfect populist pitch'* By DAVID BAUDER, AP Television Writer NEW YORK - With a forceful speech that served as her introduction to millions of Americans on Wednesday, Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin seduced many on television who had spent days doubting her candidacy. It wasn't just a home run, said CNN's Wolf Blitzer; it may have been a grand slam. "A very auspicious debut," said NBC's Tom Brokaw. It was a "perfect populist pitch," said CBS' Jeff Greenfield. "Terrific," said Mort Kondracke on Fox News Channel. "A star is born," said Chris Wallace on Fox. "A star is born," Blitzer said. "A star is born," said Anderson Cooper on CNN. Palin combined jokes about being a hockey mom with searing criticism of Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama. It was a spur to a convention audience ready to get worked up, to a large extent because Republican leaders had pushed the notion that the news media was being sexist or too aggressive in questioning her qualifications for the job. For a relative rookie on the national stage, however, she understood the nuances of speaking to a television audience better than the more experienced and fiery Rudolph Giuliani. Cameras lingered on shots of her family in the audience — her dozing infant passed from her husband to a daughter, her pregnant teen-aged daughter gripping the hand of her boyfriend, her soldier son about to be dispatched to Iraq. "I've learned quickly ...

[ Note: I'm not going to get into the Palin baby story, as I personally am waiting to see how it plays out. So if you're looking for that sort of thing, don't bother reading any further. ]   Before I get to Sarah Palin, I just have to point something out here first. John McCain is trying to score points off his party's restraint in postponing and toning down their convention out of deference to Hurricane Gustav, but there's a big fat steaming dose of hypocrisy here that the mainstream media is refusing to point out. Here's John McCain last Sunday on Fox News -- "it wouldn't be appropriate to have a festive occasion while a near tragedy or a terrible challenge is presented in the form of a natural disaster." Chris Wallace asked him about the convention again, and mentioned Katrina. McCain again responded: "I think, again, we don't want to appear in any way festive when you have that kind of tragedy possibly revisiting itself on the city of New Orleans and areas around it." Now, from the White House website itself, the picture worth 10,000 words which puts this entire "we feel your pain" lie to the ultimate test. Here are George W. Bush and John McCain -- on the exact same day Katrina hit New Orleans -- celebrating what looks to me like the "festive occasion" of John McCain's birthday. Again, this was the day that Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans. Please, someone in the mainstream media, please point this out. It's called "journali ...

Mykia Battle plays with her dog Sunday, Aug. 30, 2008 at a Pensacola, Fla. rest stop. Her family left Alabama rather than face Hurricane Gustav. Associated Press After what some people are calling the most compelling political convention in decades -- and others deriding as the "coronation" of Senator Barack Obama as the Democratic nominee for President -- the Republicans could be canceling their convention. At least that's a possible scenario according to an advanced news report of a Fox News interview with Senator John McCain. The website Politico.com is running a story that quotes an interview with Senator McCain which taped on Saturday to air on Sunday. The Politico article reads: "It just wouldn't be appropriate to have a festive occasion while a near-tragedy or a terrible challenge is presented in the form of a natural disaster," McCain told Chris Wallace of "Fox News Sunday" in an interview taped for Sunday. "So we're monitoring it from day to day and I'm saying a few prayers, too." According to that and other news reports, President Bush and Louisiana's Governor Bobby Jindal, both scheduled speakers at the convention, may pull out: Jindal for the obvious reason that he is governor of the state about to be hit by the storm; President Bush because, as the Politico article puts it: The government's botched response to Hurricane Katrina still stings, and Republicans said they doubt the president would come to a political bash i ...
