Media Livid Over Palin’s Hand, But Near Silent on Obama’s Teleprompter

But the current relapse of Palin Derangement Syndrome is mostly attributed to her having scribbled a few notes on her hand. Apparently this is a big deal worthy of just about every media outlet’s ire.
Chris Matthews was particularly absurd, [...]

Of course no discussion [...]
