>The defense his supporters here will note is that Obama says he never "organized" with ACORN.

Doesn't look like a "defense" to me. Just getting the record straight. He defended them in a case, and wasn't employed by them.

No real defense; the website doesn't imply that there's anything wrong with ACORN.

Keep scraping...

The Boo Birds

So, how did Philadelphia Flyers fans greet Sarah Palin, who was on hand tonight for the ceremonial puck-drop?

Watching on Comcast, it seemed like there was an avalanche of boos when she walked out -- boos that were almost immediately drowned out by blaring, bombastic music.

There is no doubt in my mind that that the music was ordered up to help tamp down what could have been an even more embarrassing moment.

The weirdest part of it was that Palin, who had to know she was going to be booed, walked out with her cutie pie 7-year-old daughter, Piper.

Why do I have a feeling that poor Piper will be discussing being booed by thousands with a therapist in about 10 years?

News Journal reporter Adam Taylor was there.
