Woke up this morning and found this diary by a gnostic. The title said it all:

Salon: No Palin trade missions with Russia on record

And it went on like this:

First the context from the now-infamous Couric interview:

COURIC: Have you ever been involved with any negotiations, for example, with the Russians?

PALIN: We have trade missions back and forth. We -- we do -- it's very important when you consider even national security issues with Russia as Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where -- where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border. It is -- from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, Russia, because they are right there. They are right next to -- to our state.

I'm very much against this bail-out plan. Like every sane person, I can't support something that's not transparent. And when Bush cries "Wolf!" no good ever came out of it, so why is it any different this time? Sometimes, doing nothing is better than doing something for the sake of doing something which I think is what's going on in Washington. But I, like you, have no control over this matter. All I can do is post a video showing where John McCain stands on this "crisis" for the rich.

I believe this clip should go viral.

Transcript:

Couric: ...And Bob, I understand that John McCain actually floated an alternative plan? What can you tell us about that?

Bob: We're told at the White House Senator McCain offered an alternative plan that would include fewer regulations and more corporate tax breaks for businesses - kind of a private solution. But we're also told those ideas angered and surprised democrats like banking chairman Chris Dodd who now says he thinks the White House summit was more of a political stunt for McCain."

Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Jack Cafferty:

I don't understand is why we're not hearing more about this from the Obama camp. If there ever was a winning issue with the seniors for the democrats, THIS IS IT.

So, here's to hoping that we'll start hearing about this from Obama and the rest of the democrats SOON.

(Sorry for the short diary, but really, what else is there to add to what Cafferty already says?)

WaPo steps up again.

McCain Shifts Regulation Stance

This is what we need the media to do. And when I say, "We," I don't mean just us democrats. All Americans benefit when the press decides to remember that their job is to serve the public's interest, not their own.

That said, this I believe, is what journalism looks like and it starts out like this after the jump:

Via Bloomberg News:

Senator John McCain has drawn some of the biggest crowds of his presidential campaign since adding Alaska Governor Sarah Palin to his ticket on Aug. 29. Now officials say they can't substantiate the figures McCain's aides are claiming.

What aren't they lying about?
