Leave Sarah And Trig Alone

I admire Andrew Sullivan as much as anyone in the media. He’ll be a dedicated watchdog in the event of any Obama Administration excesses. His insights will be equally vital as conservatives and Republicans rethink and rebuild.

But his harrassment of Gov. Palin — by repeatedly demanding, or goading others to demand, that she prove that Trig is her son — is sickening.

Just this afternoon, while again calling her a liar, he wrote:

All I did was ask questions…

That is a lie. He republished an obviously falsified story about Trig’s birth before checking the facts. Asking a question is calling or writing and asking someone first; it’s not republishing the lie first.

Please, Andrew, just let this one go.
