Sounds like Obama but female!!!

Haha yeah, because when she doesn't say anything it's because she doesn't know the answer, and when she does say something she is wrong and doesn't know what she is talking about.

Hey if Obama quit so Sarah could never run, I'd be ok with that.

I don't think Palin is presidential material neither is Obama.. I just can't stand when people overly attack someone (not you) but the liberal press at large anything and everything it is PALIN PALIN PALIN... I can't stand someone getting overly picked on or overly praised.

My opinion of Sarah Palin comes from researching her. Researching everything. Comments - people who knew/know her - how she accomplished her politics in Alaska - etc.

From my research - I concluded - - she is arrogant - self-important - egotistical - and will step on anyone to get what she wants. I think she truly believes her own hype.

Listening to a couple talk shows - - they talked about how many had told her to remove the "cross-hair targets" (even her own party). They talked about how other politics do target areas - - but they use flags or colors etc.

Her blatant arrogance is astounding.

I don't give her a pass.

I hope this destroys any possibility of her having any future political career.

Mornin', BH.

The attacks on Palin started the moment she was mentioned as a possible running mate for McCain, and save for a few moments of relative silence haven't let up. That she might want to get a little of her own back is, perhaps understandable...?

Whether she was right to do so at this particular moment in time is debatable... Were I in her position I'm not sure what I'd have done.

You've seen the attacks on her, her husband, her kids, her lifestyle...anything and everything are attacked, have been attacked, will be attacked.

Now because of her use of a phrase she's being accused of anti-semitism. Right here in this very thread, in fact...

Just desserts? Not really. 'course, that's a matter of perspective. ...and you and I, long ago, decided to agree to disagree where political ideology is concerned....

I challenge anyone to prove me wrong that Sarah Palin isn't ignorant.

Well the issue here isnt goint to show she is ignorant. The whole thing has been misrepresented in the OP.

Really? How much research have you done on Obama. What real facts can you give.

Obama said after he was elected - - he would not be using his gut feelings - - but would systematically address each issue by studying it and make informed decisions when all data was assessed. And that is exactly what he is doing.

No - he hasn't been personable and publicly catered to each group who thinks their issue is the most important and deserves priority and his full attention.

Obama has actually accomplished a lot - - - for someone who was handed an abysmal mess.

I was responding to your proposal that the OP could make anyone look like a fool regarding Palin.

I care... so don't speak for me.

Secondly, NO ONE ELSE is keeping their "trap" shut (as you so eloquently put it), so why should she? Especially when the left is blaming "her kind" for the shooting in the first place.

As a result of the latest journalism, we now know that Loughner was not motivated by politics at all. He was a salvia-using junkie psychopath who got his hands on a gun and shot a bunch of people. The reason? His own demented mind. Not the words of anyone else, but the words in his own mind.

If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem. Blaming Sarah Palin for speaking out against the slurs hurled by the Left is nothing more than shouting at the wind.

You're right. The opposing team went after her from the beginning. Politics as usual.

But she made it her campaign style to use hatred, fear and threat of violence against her opponent (Obama) when he was very civil to her. She lashed out at every opportunity at Obama, the left, the media... whomever she perceived to be her adversary. And now, when they lash out at her, she makes herself the victim.

Bottom line, Sarah Palin can dish it out in spades, but can't take it.

You mean they've been state governors and national political leaders too?

Funny how you seem to know who "Snooki and Pauley D" are and I don't.

Prior to your post, never heard of them.

How did you get the "can't take" it part? Her public statement today contains merely two sentences addressing her accusers:

But, especially within hours of a tragedy unfolding, journalists and pundits should not manufacture a blood libel that serves only to incite the very hatred and violence they purport to condemn. That is reprehensible.

Link.

Other than those two sentences, almost the entirety of her statement is in SUPPORT of nearly unfettered political speech.

That's where I got the "can't take it" part. She (or her writers) invokes a very emotionally-based phrase (knowingly or not) that makes her the victim of the MSM, which she hates and has been attacking vociferously for 3 years now.

You're asking me... Other than where you got that idea, where did you get that idea?

On that we're agreed. Politics as usual.

But she made it her campaign style to use hatred, fear and threat of violence against her opponent (Obama) when he was very civil to her. She lashed out at every opportunity at Obama, the left, the media... whomever she perceived to be her adversary. And now, when they lash out at her, she makes herself the victim.

Her over the top hyperbole, especially during the health care debate was wrongheaded. Factual statements would have gone further than fear mongering. On that, we're agreed. Hate? Dislike of policy, yes. Hell, I'm guilty of that. I've serious issues with current govt. policy. To call it hate, however, is a bit of an overstatement. Threat of violence, against Obama personally? When did this happen? Obama has been civil...it's very sad that the same can not be said for his sycophants in the media and politics, isn't it?

Bottom line, Sarah Palin can dish it out in spades, but can't take it.

She's actually been rather good at taking it. Her replies have been, considering some of the attacks upon her, and her family, rather understated. Certainly more than mine would have been, I'm afraid.

In this case, it appears most Americans do think she is a victim of the media and her political opponants.

In my book, I can't even remotely equate an inelegant defense to the abhorrent use of these killings to score political points. They are worlds apart in my view.

I guess what floors me is the absolute vitriolic hatred that this woman receives.
Satan probably gets nicer posts than what is attributed to this person. Don't like her politics?
Fine. Thats what America is all about. The personal attacks just floor me though.

Oh well. Just don't get into a snit if your fav guy/gal is a target next.
