Lefty blogosphere, raising the tone of the debate yet again...

So here's the latest rage in the left-wing media - Sarah Palin's Arizona speech with all of the speech cut out, leaving only her breathing. Because, you know, none of them, or their idol Barack, would sound foolish with all of their words edited out.

It's a big hit with the brain surgeons providing content at Salon.com ("weird, creepy"), the rocket scientists writing for the HuffingtonPost and the nuclear physicists peddling their intellectual wares at TheDailyBeast ("freaky"). And many, many more. Because nothing says "I'm vastly superior to you" better than a childishly edited, out-of-context video.

Heartening to see them respond to the President's speech by raising the tone of the political discourse. Again...
