Sliming Palin

McCain who called his own wife C**T is offended by lipstick remark. What kind of bull is that? Why are the news media even discussing that? Do they lack intellect to discuss the real issues like stock marked, a barometer of economy is going down the tube, and the war is Afghanistan is going so badly. Seven years into the war, billions of dollars spent and or wasted, many American lives lost, McCain and Bush continue to insist they are winning the war when the Secretary of Defence and his General just yesterday admitted that the victory is nowhere in sight and in fact things are going badly. What is wrong with you people talking of lipstick? News media is failing, the Americans, as much if not more than Bush/McCain.

Well, the timing is suspect. Sarah Palin signs "historic" legislation to increase funding for special education in March of this year. Her special needs child was born in April of this year. While she's slashing many other programs this one increasing by about 300% in the next 3 years. A little suspicious.

On this anniversary of 9/11 it is so sad to see the way that Americans attack each other. Just because someone has a different viewpoint does not make them a bad person. Be honest, stick to the issue, research your facts before offering an opinion, and keep an open mind. In the end we are all Americans and have to live together. We can do so positively or negatively it is our choice. Only by working together will there ever be any meaningful change.

Why does Obama have to be a sexist just because he didn't choose Clinton as his running mate? That kind of argument trivializes the feminist movement. There is real, and tangible examples of sexism in our society. For example, when women don't get equal pay for an equal day's work. Obama favors legislation that supports equal pay for equal work. Palin and McCain oppose it. Why doesn't that get you angry?

Comment: Palin brought on victory herself when she laid claim to "18 million supporters" whom were betrayed by Obama! Women. everywhere said. It is not about Palin; it???s about Hillary! How could Obama care less, about women sure he knows that if he picked Hillary he would be winning right now! But he picked biden who said that Hillary would have been a better pick! But because Obama is a sexist fool who can???t come to terms with having a woman on the ticket even if it costs him the election! Too bad we as women of this great country will stand behind Palin for support of women all across this land!

Em, I totally agree with you NOW (national organization for women) here speaking out..... For the life of me I don't get why women are swooning over Palin when she in fact is being used and is promoting sexism by allowing it. Should I be her I myself would lose my mind being treated as an idiot, being put up for VP solely to get the womens vote. , but wait...."I might get to be VP so it doesn't matter" behavior by Palin , I am ashamed of my sisters at the very thought of it. I can't believe that the women who take for granted the right to vote fought so hard for by older women are making it a sham now. Disgusted and appalled.

If the Republicans were real feminists, they would acknowledge that actually Sarah does not need McCain. Uh, oh, I've said something progressive, watch out. I am not voting for Palin because how can you be a feminist and allow men to define you? I am not a traditional male hating feminist, but I understand that the voice of men has been one of sexism and oppression. As a woman, she cannot talk about glass ceilings when men continue to pull puppet strings.

I am preaching to the chior since I appear to be the only one here. Have to say it anyway......It is not about the person. I think that Palin is a very intelligent woman and politician. Unfortunately, I have disnagreed with a few intelligent people and certainly will not vote that far right. Lipstick on a pig was obviously not intended for McOver's running mate. but it does distract from their lack of issues. The emporor has no clothes and half the country can't see it.
* McBeenthere, McDone that
* McBoys club strikes again
* McSwift boat coming soon
* McEconomy good........that must have been when he was talking to his oil buds
* McChange, please don't pay attention to all the lobiests running my campaign,
* I was against change before I was for it........Are you kidding me, please tell me the right is not going to support the moral thing over the good of the country.

I just had a sobering thought. Since Gov. Palin kept the money for the "Bridge to nowhere" and used it for other things, how are the Alaskans going to feel when they find out the money has to be paid back? Even if the state refuses to comply, congress still has the authority to deny payments for other projects in the state until it is repaid. I seriously doubt that the Dems in a Dem controlled congress would risk political suicide with their base by simply letting this one slide.

I believe Newsweek is engaging in partisan reporting on Sarah Palin.

While I understand, and yes, willing to accept that some things are "Rumor" and/or "UNTRUTHS" about Palin, there still remains many outstanding questions concerning her public record and personal life.

For instance, what about the 1100 emails that Palin is refusing to turn over regarding the ongoing investigation into misusing/abusing her political power to dictate her personal agenda? (i.e. "Troopergate")

What about the allegation that when Mayor of Wascilla, her police municipality was charging rape VICTIMS for the forensic testing of their own "rape kits?"

What about the injection of her EXTREME religious ideology into such matters as: "Gay Rights," "The Iraq War," and "Israel?"

The list doesn't stop here. In fact, the list is almost as long as her "Bridge to Nowhere," which has been proven to be a CLEAR misrepresentation, (i.e. "LIE") by Palin!

What are Sarah Palin's illustruous qualifications to sit in the second most powerful office in this country; and, God Forbid, the MOST powerful office if McCain is unable to serve?

How is it that Palin can call herself a pitbull, yet she's afraid of the public, who by the way want's the votes of the public for her and McCain to lead our country. If we allow this foolishness, we deserve 4 more years of Bush/McCain.

Truetawaka: You are a glutton for punishment, or just a complete idiot!

In fact there are several witnesses to Palin's membership in the Alaska Independence Party. The posted copy of her registration records available on a PDF exhibit signs of tampering, included obvious cut and pate of the elements, placed down without straight edges to each other and the fact that the record of her registration adress changes is in identical handwriting. Any expert on forgery will tell you that your handwriting changes with time, the same persons handwriting looking un changing indicates that it was writing either at the same time or very close to the same time. There is a cover up going on on her membership in the AIP.

Wow! So much fear and hate from the Obama/Biden liberals....you can smell the fear...They are afraid that the empty suit promising everything to each audience w/ no substance is wearing thin...
McCain '08
Palin '12
