Why Liberals Hate Sarah Palin
They don't like Sarah Palin because she did not abort her Down's Syndrome child.They wanted a powerful woman on the ticket and they got one, only not the kind that they had hoped for and on the "wrong" ticket, at that! Dreaming of a bra-burning "womyn", they instead got an intelligent, beautiful woman, dedicated to Motherhood; a woman who has been a mover and shaker in the politics of her home state; a woman who doesn't wear her hair in dreads and who dresses stylishly, in a manner suiting her position in life and politics.They got a woman who has a value system and is not afraid to talk about it, instead of a womyn who peers out from behind John Lennon glasses and in Moonie-eyed fashion says, "I'm OK, you're OK!".They got a woman who supports her family through the proverbial thick and thin.They got a woman whose smile is genuine and not the arrogant smirk of Hillary.The Pseudo-liberal/Neo-socialists got a woman...a woman who scares them to death and they just can't handle it.

It is offensive that you think that because someone is a democrat that they would what a special needs child aborted! I am a mother of three, a special education teacher, and a life long democrat. It is funny how republicans say candidates' families should be private, but you keep bringing it up. But since you did bring it up, I will comment on it. As a special education teacher and as a mother I cannot imagine taking on a job that requires leaving your family for extended periods of time. Children with special needs require a lot of attention. Sure she can pay someone to do that, but that does not replace a mother. I also cannot understand why she would put her seventeen year old pregnant daughter in the position she has. So much for family values. So much for putting your family first!

Democrats don't hate Sarah Palin, they just think she's a politician who says one thing and does another. Is it true that when she came in as mayor the town had a balanced budget, then when she left it was 22 million in debt? I don't even think Lawrence has a debt like that, and it's much bigger. How can she call herself a fiscal conservative? Can you Republicans please stop talking about Palin's family and focus on the issues?

Levi Johnston is the father of Bristol Palin's baby. The 17-year-old hockey player at Burchell High School in Wasilla, Alaska, is by all accounts soon to be married to the Republican vice presidential candidate's daughter, but all may not be well. His MySpace page revealed juicy details about his outlook on life before he made it private. In it, he admits, “I'm a f**kin' redneck who likes to snowboard and ride dirt bikes. But I live to play hockey. I like to go camping and hang out with the boys, do some fishing, shoot some sh*t and just f**kin' chillin' I guess. Ya f*ck with me I'll kick ass.”After all the publicity, Levi Johnston's MySpace was redacted, revealing no evidence of his previous profanity laden macho posturing. Although he admits that he is in a relationship, he still says that he wants to use MySpace “for networking or for dating.” Moreover, on the subject of possible children, he left the message, “Love kids, but not for me.” Most devastatingly, in a sharp contrast to the Palin family's conservative views, Levi instead posts that he is an agnostic.The Levi Johnston-Bristol Palin marriage-to-be may yet not be, despite assurances from the Palin campaign. Their baby is due in four more months so the nuptials can't be delayed much longer.So, what's the big deal, you ask: (1) The McCain Campaign's abject failure to discover the existence of this page, and 86 it before publically identifying Palin as running mate. In Hollywood, secret agents permanently delete files of their “assets” and other damning information, with such extreme prejudice, it's like they never existed. Political campaigns presumably have a similar capacity, especially when it comes to myspace pages. I mean, how many people have both the duimb luck and foresight to download Levi's utterly pedestrian and unremarkable page before last week's runaway train was both christened and irreversibly derailed railed. . Even an internet neophyte is cognizant of Myspace's popularity. Surely, all of us who religiously read our local newspaper's on-line edition recall the several fatal victims of crime and car wrecks whose myspace link is invariably posted in the comments section within a hour or two after their identities are publically revealed. The same for notorious local scofflaws.

(continued) Rank amateurs!!! Base and primitive neophytes!!!! No? And the same fu*k-ups will be staffing the White House and other major governmental entities and agencies, in important supervisory roles, no less, should McCain win. Remember Monica Goulding? Remember “You're doing a great job, Brownie?” (2) While it is sometimes dangerous, presumptuous and unfair to postulate–without secret agent truth serum—the theoretically unknown and unknowable intent and motivations racing through the minds of others, you can't help but think this: Hmmm, typical 17 year old Red Neck Boy: Loves to cuss, play sports, down a few brews, arm wrestle, fight, and get a little trim. But marriage and kids? No way, no how. So who is perpetrating and perpetuating this distinctly plausible, possible, probable and arguable lie that Bristol and Levi are deeply in love, and want to live happily ever after?. Shot gun wedding? Nah, too crude. If Sarah is anything, she's a cunning playa. Swiss bank account wedding, conveniently cancelledcan you hear “Church Lady”—after the election, and thereafter eternally irrelevant? Four years later, its old news. Remember Monica the Maydela? The Cigar? The Dress? Old hat, except for, perhaps the most acerbic and dog-loyal repubs. Speculation? Yes. But, honestly, I cannot categorically conclude “no way, no how.” . How bout we just give the voters the uncontroverted facts, and let them decide? .

teachandlearn,You point out that some (I'm not going to paint all Republicans with the broad brush that the author of this blog does to Democrats) Republicans complain about the focus on Palin's family, but continue to bring it up if it suits there agenda. Cal Thomas' op-ed piece yesterday did the same thing. Then there is Bill O'Reilly calling the parents of Brittany Spears “pinheads” because their younger daughter was pregnant (and going to marry the father, I believe) yet coming to the Palins' defense.

teachandlearn,the reason for the ref that dems wish Sarah had aborted her downs syndrome child are that multiple times, probably more than ten in the past week, reports and pundits, feminist leaders, have commented that she shouldn't take on the VP, or the campaign, having a downs syndrome child. some have walked right up to the edge of actually saying, but not quite, that she'd be better off if she'd aborted him! some have questioned her getting an amnio test, that that indicates she was considering an abortion…wishful thinkingalso sexist, they didn't question “jawbone Joe” when he was widowed with his kids!

jaywalker: I've been enjoying my time in class greatly, and I'm more or less comfortable with what I'm doing at this point. But it's an insane amount of work right now, with three separate classes for about 65 total students, having to craft the lesson plans, the presentation slides, assignments, reading selections, etc. etc. on top of my own classes, I don't have much in the way of time for anything else. Luckily, once you build things they're built, so my life should be substantially easier next semester, and I only teach until October, so I just have to stay on top of things until then. But good, regardless, the position is a pretty natural fit for me, as I hoped/expected it would be. Too busy, though, to post much. Once you come upon a 175 post thread that you've missed from the start, it's too tiresome and time consuming to hunt down a good place to get in. (and, really, they're almost all the same anyway, so there'll be more chances)

My problem with Sarah is I don't know, and can't tell, when she's telling the truth and when she's spinning some more Alaskan yarn.Take the Alaskan State's luxury jet. Did she sell it on e-Bay or not? Did she sell it for a profit or a loss? Or the Bridge to Nowhere: was she for it before she was against it? Or was she always against it? Did she take the earmark money and just spend it on something else, or did she return that money to the US taxpayers? What does she REALLY think about the Iraqi war, is it sound national policy or part of “God's war”? Did she really do all that Canadian pipeline negotiations or was it in the works before she became gov and she just finished it up? And why was she at this year's Alaskan Independent Party's convention if she believes in putting 'country first'? And what does “putting country first” and “service” mean to her if she's willing to demean the tens of thousands of people who participate in community service by helping economically displaced people? Finally, I'd like to hear her opinions on “choice” or “right to life”. Is she really against a woman's right to choose if she's pregnant from a rape? Is she really FOR a would-be rapist's right to choose the mother of his offspring?I know it's cold in Alaska a lot of the time, but down here in the lower 48, we need less yarn spinning and more straight talk. When will she give us that?

Having Marion Lynn tell us why liberals do anything, let alone why we “hate” Governor Palin is asinine. Suggesting it is because she has children is truly ridiculous. Although the family is supposedly off limits, he uses the infant's disability in a shameless assault to promote his hate against liberals and those who don't think just like him. Giving this an actual forum, rather than his usual comments, is a new low for the LJWorld (although it is right on par for Marion).I'm sure any liberals with children who suffer from Downs will be particularly insulted by such a ridiculous and arrogant piece of hateful propaganda wrapped up as an “editorial.” Marion hates liberals, and he routinely refers to Democrats as “demonrats.” His attempts to demonize virtually half of our population speaks to who truly hates others around here. Shame on you LJWorld for allowing such trash to be given a forum. What next, are you going to allow White Supremacists a voice to tell us what is wrong with liberals in America too?

Joe Biden took the train home each every day he was in Wahington to be home with kids! I am all for a woman leading our country, but I find it questionable that she is running a campaign on family values. My family values do not include airing my seventeen year's old pregnancy and leaving someone else to take care of my 4 month old child with special needs. By the way, I have a typically developing 4 month old and hate to leave him while I am at work for 8 hours.

They think they aren't, that it's OK because they are “progressive,” but that really only makes it much worse. You see Palin is a traitor. Only old white rich men are supposed to be Republicans. A woman should know her place, and that is in the democratic party.

Better question: Why are Republicans so afraid to discuss her “experience” as mayor of a little town? 22 million in debt for a small town? Shouldn't you be labeling her a “tax and spend liberal”? Oh, yes, the new conservatives are “lower taxes and spend even more”, like Bushie boy. Is that the newspeak for “fiscal conservative”?

Marion, did you know this was online today?Why They Hate Her Sarah Palin is a smart missile aimed at the heart of the left. by Jeffrey Bell [snip]”…..the single most important narrative holding the left together in today's politics and culture is the one offered—often with little or no dissent—by adversarial feminism. The premise of this narrative is that for women to achieve dignity and self-fulfillment in modern society, they must distance themselves, not necessarily from men or marriage or childbearing, but from the kind of marriage in which a mother's temptation to be with and enjoy several children becomes a synonym for holding women back and cheating them out of professional success.On August 29, in the immediate aftermath of the announcement by the McCain campaign, all that was widely known of the governor of Alaska was that she was married with five children, the last one of whom had been carried to term with Down syndrome, and that she was pro-life. No one knew that her oldest daughter was pregnant. No one knew much about what she had done as governor or in her previous career. No one knew how she had been drawn into politics, or that her sister had had a reckless husband and a contentious divorce. Above all, with the possible exception of John McCain, no one knew that Sarah Palin was both a married mother of five and a brilliant political talent with a chance not just to change the dynamics of the 2008 election but to rise to the top level of American politics, whatever happens this year.The simple fact of her being a pro-life married mother of five with a thriving political career was—before anything else about her was known—enough for the left and its outliers to target her for destruction. She could not be allowed to contradict symbolically one of the central narratives of the left. How galling it will be to Sarah Palin's many new enemies if she survives this assault and prevails. If she does, her success may be an important moment in the struggle to shape not just America's politics but its culture.Jeffrey Bell, author of Populism and Elitism: Politics in the Age of Equality (1992), is completing work on Social Conservatism: The Movement That Polarized American Politics.”http://www.weeklystandard.com/Content/Public/Articles/000/000/015/534rlysq.asp

Here is another nugget from Bell's article:”The most striking thing in purely political terms about this hurricane of elite rage is the built-in likelihood that it will backfire. It's not simply that it is highly capable of generating sympathy for Palin among puzzled undecided voters and of infuriating and motivating a previously placid GOP base, neither of which is in the interest of the Obama-Biden campaign. It also created an opening for Palin herself to look calm, composed, competent, and funny in response. In her acceptance speech last Wednesday night, anyone could see the poise and skill that undoubtedly attracted McCain's attention months ago, when few others were even aware that he was looking. But it was precisely the venom of the left's assault that heightened the drama and made it a riveting television event. Palin benefited from her ability to project full awareness of the volume and relentlessness of the attacks without showing a scintilla of resentment or self-pity.This is a rare talent, one shared by Franklin D. Roosevelt and Ronald Reagan. For this quality to have even a chance to develop, there must be something real to serve as an emotional backdrop: disproportionate, crazy-seeming rage by one's political enemies. Roosevelt was on his party's national ticket five times and Reagan sought the presidency four times. Each became governor of what at the time was the nation's most populous state. It took Roosevelt and Reagan decades of national prominence and pitched ideological combat to achieve the gift of enemies like these. Yet the American left awarded Sarah Palin this gift seemingly within a microsecond of her appearance on the national stage in Dayton, Ohio.”

Let's be careful comparing either candiate to FDR. Seventy-two years ago, in his renomination acceptance speech at the Democratic convention in Philadelphia (before more than 100,000 people gathered in Franklin Field), Franklin D. Roosevelt rose above the boiler-plate rhetoric of political speeches and spoke of his generation's “rendezvous with destiny.”He warned of the perils to the nation of economic inequality. “Liberty,” he said, “requires opportunity to make a living, a living decent according to the standard of the time, a living which gives man not only enough to live by, but something to live for.”Roosevelt's words echo across the decades because they resonate with the very meaning of America, a meaning that is so much deeper than what our politics have become. “We are fighting,” he told his audience, “to save a great and precious form of government, for ourselves and for the world.”

What a sexist piece of crap, to say the least!Marion loves Palin only because she believes in the issues he stands for. If she didn't, he would try to tear her appart by using every possible sexist insult, exactly like those he leveled against the “womyn” he doesn't agree with. You see, in Marion's world, if you aren't a conservative who is against rape even in cases of rape and incest then you are a “feminazi,” a term he has thrown at me on more than one occassion. “They got a woman who has a value system and is not afraid to talk about it, instead of a womyn who peers out from behind John Lennon glasses and in Moonie-eyed fashion says, “I'm OK, you're OK!”. ” — What the hell does that mean? Who exactly fit that description among Democrats this year? Nobody. It is a made up persona to fit the “type” of people he hates. “a woman who doesn't wear her hair in dreads and who dresses stylishly” — well, I think we all know what he means when he slams women who wear their hair in dreads, now don't we. Yep, Marion makes it clear he hates people with dreads. Unbelievable that the LJWorld would allow such blatantly offensive garbage to be given the time of day. Obama / Biden!

This is hysterical! I knew before clicking on the link that anything with the title of, “Why liberals hate……” would be written by a reactionary conservative, but this is even better than I expected. Marion, of all people! Since Marion thinks he can speak for liberals, I'll take a shot at speaking for Marion.Why Marion Loves Sarah PalinSarah, like Marion, is adept at manipulating the truth and leaving out details that might reveal her real actions and motives. She, like Marion, likes to talk tough and wave guns around, but hasn't a clue how to achieve anything that can't be grabbed by firepower, bluster, or dirty politics. She's vindictive and vengeful toward anyone who stands in her way and distorts and inflates her “accomplishments,” walking all over those who were trusting or naive enough to hand her the reins of power.Notably, Sarah, unlike any real woman in Marion's life, is too remote to ever be anything but a Fantasy Woman to him: she will never reject him outright, laugh in his face, argue with any of his crackpot ideas or pronouncements, file a restraining order against him, or rearrange her own life to get away from the trainwreck of his.In addition, Sarah is a hero of hypocrites everywhere: what her little knocked-up teen does about pregnancy is “her decision”; what other, less-well-to-do teens do about theirs should (in Sarah's smug view) be the decision of the federal government—even if that teen's pregnancy is the result of rape and/or incest. (The rates of which, by the way, are higher in Alaska than in any other state.) Nothing like goose-stepping over the rights of the already oppressed. Where have we seen that before…? Oh, yeah…. In Marion's view, what's not to like?

Asbestos, you miss the point. Marion is making a claim that others hate Palin, when in fact it is very clear that Marion is the one who hates others. Most of us who disagree with someone don't actually hate the other person. Marion makes it clear that he does through his descriptions of imagined liberal women. And two things to make clear — I have never visited the website of moveon or dailykos. Not even once. I speak for myself. I also don't live in Kansas, but nice putdown of your fellow Kansans there, bub.

Let's talk about the polls. After Palin & McCain and the RNC, there is zero bounce? No way in hell could this be true. Every woman I know likes Sarah Palin and will be voting McCain and most of these women were undecided.Throw the polls away, after all, they had Kerry winning the election and before that Gore. Are the pollsters biased against the Republicans? Recent history says they are indeed. Why do the liberals hate Sarah Palin? Because she is a good person and does the right thing. That's why they hate her. She has 80-90% approval rating as governor and all the liberals talk about is she is a small town mayor. They hate her because her choice was to keep her Down Syndrome baby instead of killing it. They hate her because she is electrifying. They hate her because she is the biggest threat they have ever had to face. A powerful woman who happens to be conservative.

As for how to tell if Palin is lying: that's easy. If her mouth is moving, she's lying.Her smug claims that she rejects federal earmarks are utterly false. Like any other politician on the make, she goes after earmarks or rails against them, depending on which way the wind is blowing and what will benefit her personally.As mayor of Wasilla, Palin hired lobbyist Steven Silver (an Abramoff crony) to haul in $27,000 in fed money for the city of 6700, playing the “native American” card to get it approved. She didn't seem to have any qualms about begging for and accepting federal handouts then.And now she swaggers around boasting that, as governor, she told the Feds “If we want a bridge, we'll build it ourselves!” Well, isn't she tough? In truth, she supported the Gravina Island Bridge during her campaign, rejecting it only after Congress had already shot it down. She still received the over-$200,000 pork rind from the gov't and did NOT return it, contrary to her claims. Matter of public record.Get a load of the commentary on Palin's claims in “The Faithful Progressive”, a Christian-based blogspot: http://faithfulprogressive.blogspot.c…. The entire blog is worth reading. Here's a comment from the page, from SB George:This is the real story and the one that is being completely obscured by the whole pregnancy deal—which I don't care about or think is relevant.Their [the GOP's] narrative that she is the “inner John McCain,” a reformer, a corruption fighter, a cost-cutter is baseless and cynical. She … -Lied about the bridge. She campaigned for it!-did not fight earmarks—but paid lobbyists to get them.-did not take on Ted Stevens (well maybe a little AFTER his corruption scandals got hot) but [was] previously part of his corrupt machine. -is under investigation for credible allegations of abuse of power.”There is more credible evidence out there to refute her cynical, phony claims. But only if you pull your head out and READ.Here's a start: http://thinkprogress.org/wonkroom/200… try this one: http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-met… media honeymoon should be over very soon. Let's see how Miss Porkbarrel stands up to challenges to her lies during press conferences or debates. I can't wait.And I haven't even touched on her many and easily refuted lies about Barack Obama…

Good god, Marion. Abort her child? I surely hope that you aren't completely sincere with that comment.As for your other affronts to those belonging to subcultures other than your own, I personally feel that you're barking up an imaginary tree. Boy, wouldn't it be nice if we could generalize one's character simply by their appearance. “…a woman who doesn't wear her hair in dreads and who dresses stylishly, in a manner suiting her position in life and politics.”Thanks for defining the standards of attire and decorum for us. If Sarah Palin appeared in a debate this fall with newly-formed dreadlocks, that would just be horrible. It's just like Samson and his hair. She just wouldn't have that magical melange of fortitude and grace anymore. It's all in the hair and attire. You know, it's kind of like painting an old car that you've just fixed up. The new paint completely alters the way the thing runs and drives. Right?

Little Miss Alaskan Sunshine. But to use a Downs syndrome child to prop up your conservative agenda is simply sickening. I sure hope we learn more about her, and soon. It would be good to know more than what she read from the single prepared speech.

Big Prune~ You must run in a very tiny circle. No surprise there.I know no woman who identifies with this lying, smug hypocrite or who wants her in a position where she can pack the Supreme Court. Palin believes that a 12-year-old who is raped by her uncle should be forced by the federal government to carry the resulting repugnancy to term—further permanently scarring her psyche and blighting her life.Her idea of an empowered woman is herself standing over a bleeding caribou with a smoking gun or her pampered daughter being “saved” from unwed motherhood by Mommy-generated pressure on a hapless teen boy who is now being frog-marched into the mother of all shotgun weddings. Yay, Sarah! Yay, Bristol! Who cares about poor teens from broken families and impoverished backgrounds? No choice for them—they must do as Sarah's evangelical fundamentalist beliefs dictate.If you want bounce, try this on for size:The day after Palin's loudmouthed braggadocio-laden, lie-powered speech in St. Paul:The Obama campaign registered a one-day record of $10 million in donations. The McCain campain received $1 million. http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/… some bounce for you!What an asset she'll be—for Obama's campaign!

Marion, I'm disappointed. Some of your previous posts have been the most intelligent and best researched things I have ever seen here. But every once in a while you go off on one of these dittohead rants that calls into question your credibility.I'm neither a liberal nor a Democrat, but I have quite a few friends who are. None of them hate Palin. Certainly, none of them hate her for having a Downs Syndrome child. They merely oppose her attempts to use the power of the Federal government to force the same situation (or much worse) on everyone in the entire country. None of my liberal friends have bashed the daughter for anything. They oppose the hypocrisy of the mother for wallowing in “family values” and abstinence-only education and then weasel-wording the need for a shotgun wedding.In terms of Palin's speeches, I thought they were are at least as snide and narcissistic as anything Hillary Clinton ever came out with, if not far worse. Nobody hates Palin. But lots of people don't want her as VP to a guy that has about 50% odds of not surviving even one term in office due to age, cancer history, and family history of fatal heart attacks.

commuter~You seem to have missed Obama's convention speech, during which he answered many of your questions, but you can do some very easy searches—avoiding, I would hope, the rabidly partisan sources on either side of the aisle.He has accomplished a good deal so far and has helped pass some vital legislature (contrary to Palin's false claims). He has sensible ideas about paying for his plans (which do not involve further impoverishing the middle class!), and plans to take a multi-front approach to squelching dependence on foreign oil. In fact, Palin apparently liked his ideas on energy so much, she regurgitated each point, up to and including wind and nuclear power, after first lying and stating that Obama planned to “do nothing.” Apparently, her speechwriters are counting on nobody checking the veracity of anything she said—which is probably true in the case of the hardline party faithful, but to include such blatant lies was an insult to informed independents.Obviously, I am biased, so don't listen to me. I'm an independent who is solidly behind Obama. But this election is too important not to make the best decision you possibly can, so I urge you to do your research yourself—gather the facts as well as you can from the most unbiased sources you can, then read some opinions from all over the board—especially from bi-partisan sources or those who make an earnest effort to be open minded.

Again, not to sound like a broken record but sure I probably do, of all things related to this election cycle, the left leaning media's commitment to seeing Obama in office is the most maddening. The far-left blogs sort of feed the news cycles, and it all ties into a dogpile of propaganda, lies or lies by ommission and fabrications…..to tear down Republicans, McCain, Palin and the entire conservative movement in the name of the most hated president ever, George W. Bush. McCain has never been GWB's lapdog, no matter what the Obama commercials and blogs say. I hope the people make the right decision and reject Obama and Biden. And why is Joe screaming, red-faced, with abrupt hand motions in his appearances? It's too unsettling to watch him.

You ought to be asking yourself why Palin is afraid to have a news conference or be interviewed by a source other than People magazine, to which she gave her only interview since being chosen.For the same reason BO won't be interviewed by Sean Hannity, Mark Lavin or Rush Limbaugh exc. abc, nbc, cnn, msnbc none of them report the news they all report there opinion which is slanted to the left. Just like US magazine printing there BS cover of Baby's, Lies and Scandal. She'll never get a fair shake in this upside down left slanted world.As a special education teacher and as a mother I cannot imagine taking on a job that requires leaving your family for extended periods of time. I thought this was what the left and the womans right movement was all about. Women having the right to do as they wish regardless of whats best for there family. I thought it was all about a womans right to choose what she wants for her life, even if it means killing her own unborn children. Geez people take a stand for something and then stick to your guns, it always seems to be OK for one side to act one way but when the other side does the same damn thing its wrong. Is BO a bad father because he's running for president, is a fathers influence on his children less important then a mothers?

My problem with Sarah is I don't know, and can't tell, when she's telling the truth and when she's spinning some more Alaskan yarn.Take the Alaskan State's luxury jet. Did she sell it on e-Bay or not? Did she sell it for a profit or a loss? Or the Bridge to Nowhere: was she for it before she was against it? Or was she always against it? Did she take the earmark money and just spend it on something else, or did she return that money to the US taxpayers? What does she REALLY think about the Iraqi war, is it sound national policy or part of “God's war”? Did she really do all that Canadian pipeline negotiations or was it in the works before she became gov and she just finished it up? And why was she at this year's Alaskan Independent Party's convention if she believes in putting 'country first'? And what does “putting country first” and “service” mean to her if she's willing to demean the tens of thousands of people who participate in community service by helping economically displaced people?Finally, I'd like to hear her opinions on “choice” or “right to life”. Is she really against a woman's right to choose if she's pregnant from a rape? Is she really FOR a would-be rapist's right to choose the mother of his offspring?I know it's cold in Alaska a lot of the time, but down here in the lower 48 we need less yarn spinning and more straight talk. When will she give us that?

Get real it's no dam different. Find a new rant. Besides last I checked it sounds like a typical American family in which both parents work, and therefor the parents have to work together to fill in the gaps so one parent is available to take care of the kids when the other is at work.

Jerk patrol states:>>>>>>>>Alia: Advancing Bill O'Reillys consistency of logic or lack thereof to anyone, for any purpose, is just as vapid and stupid as your Kos-sourced blog questioning the parentage of the infant. Most of this Palin discussion going on here and in the country still misses a discussion of the real issues. But it is so much more enjoyable to talk about sex and pregnancy and such:..Jerk-patrol, The first sentence of this blog talks about Palin's son with Down Syndrome, Cal Thomas' column yesterday talked about Bristol's pregnancy. Who's keeping the focus on sex and pregnancy and such? I responded to this blog with O'Reilly's statements to point out that the hypocritical extremist right do the very thing the accuse the left of doing. It seems like there are people trying to raise legitimate questions about Palin's stance on foreign policy and the economy. Since she is not allowed to be interviewed or be present on nationally recognized news programs, people will have to look at her past record to find out what she stands for. So far, what has come to light is that fact she was in favor of the Bridge to Nowhere, Against the Bridge to Nowhere, Against earmarks while taking millions of dollars worth as mayor of Wasilla and governor of Alaska, yet the city of Wasilla being in debt millions of the dollars when she left office. Maybe that's why Marion, Bill O'Reilly and Cal Thomas keep bringing up the subject of sex and pregnancy and such. Maybe that's why the McCain/Palin election committee announced Bristol's pregnancy when they did. If we keep talking about sex and pregnancy and such, no one will pay attention to her record in office. I did write a blog that perpetuated a rumor about the Palins first reported in the DailyKos. That was an error on my part. The sources for that rumor were not reliable and biased. I admit it was a serious lapse in judgement on my part. But, you bringing that up, doesn't negate the fact the the right keeps talking about sex and pregnancy and such and that they judge other people (Brittany Spears family and others) the way the accuse the left of doing.

When I was married my wife worked nights at the hospital and I worked days. We made it work and I'm sure they will to. Welcome to the todays world.~~~While I don't think her working is a reflection on her parenting skills, it is a reflection as to how true she is to her pro-family platform she has been running. I think this is the issue that most people who are asking questions are trying to make.Given that both parents for their family are not working for purely financial reasons (i.e. both must work to provide the basic needs for the family), I think it is reasonable to assume Todd Palin could be at home with the kids.It isn't if a man is incapable of being the primary care provider. But he isn't. He chose to go back to work despite the fact that he has a child that has special needs and one that most likely will have medical problems of some sort that need to be attended to. Why aren't people who are pro-family taking him to task for not being there full-time for his family?Additionally, being a VP really isn't a job that you can trade off shifts for insuring that at least one parent is with the kids like many folks currently do. There are going to be times where the needs of the nation demand that she travel and be gone for weeks at a time. The only way this can work is if she employs someone else other than her husband to care for her children. It is good that she can afford to. Most families can't and are pretty much told to suck it up by people who claim to be pro-family.

cont'd:Some are correct and those are the most annoying to any number of people.The Holocaust occured, although it may not have gone down in quite the way that the public thinks that it did; there were interests which dealt in the currency of the Holocaust; those who were considered the Untermancsh and those who dealt in that currency bear responsibility as well.Mr. Irving has forgotten the objectivity which an historian must at all times maintain.That Anti-Semitism is alive and well in the USA is demonstrated by the criticism by US citizens of the State of Israel; a country created by the United Nations mandate and just you wait………….there will be all sorts of negative replies from those who oppose Israel who at the same time, support the UN!Mr. Irving's belief that Adolf Hitler did not know hwat was going on in the extermination camps is absurd.That there are no documents which specifically refer to Hitler's knowledge of the Final Solution comes as no surprise to me and is most likley quite correct.as Eichmann and the other planners of that horror at Wannsee intended it to be so and wrote about insulating Hitler from it such that what we now call “plausible deniability” might be preserved after the final victory, which of course, did not happen.That it was the intention of the Nazis, not the Germans as a nation, to eliminate certain ethinc groups is clear from the evidence. It is equally clear that the popular notions of how the Nazis went about this are often incorrect.It is also clear that the average German on the street in 1933-1945 did not know what was going on.Germans joined the Nazi party because it was required or joined up very much like people join the Democrat party; just to align themselves with a party which they believe offers them the most hope.I consider Mr. Irving a friend with whom I disagree on certain issues, just as you have friends with whom you disagree and you should not try to deny me my friends, as I will not try to deny you yours.I value this photo even though it is terrible and makes me look awful (t was taken by a Professor of History at a nearby un-named university who had no idea how to run the camera and didn't use a flash!):http://img114.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc03858lf1.jpgI also value some of Mr. Irving's books, all signed by him, which are included in my library, right along with other books signed by such notables as FDR, Harry Truman, Bill Clinton and others.As far as my experience in law enforcement, I was duly appointed by the Attorney General, with full powers of arrest, etc, and it was that experience which led to my complete reversal on my thoughts concerning our repressive drug laws and I have repeatedly stated such on this forum and others.The so-called “War On Drugs” is a “War On The American People” and needs to be halted forthwith!Now can we please get back to the matter at hand?

some missed my point of asking who takes care of the kids…many kids are in two parent homes and both parents work - that's how our family does it. My husband I both work full time. I just find it interesting that a family with a newborn baby, a minor who is expecting, and other minor children in the house, thinks that they can take on a bigger responsibility that may ultimately take away from the attention needed within the home. Obama's kids are school aged, and his wife resigned from her part time position. Big difference from caring for a newborn with special needs that you are still nursing. And another young daughter expecting - Shoot! I'd have a wedding to plan or at least arrangements to put the baby up for adoption if my yougun decides not to marry the guy. I guess I'd consider the job if I got $200,000, free childcare, and access to great schools. If Palin gets elected, of course, she will turn down all the perks that come with being VP, right? I don't want the Republicans shoving “family values” in my face, unless they are willing to be open to all families choosing what's best for them. Such as, loving homosexuals who want to be parents or at least recognized as a legal union, and the right for women to choose a procedure that is legal and safe.

Godot (Anonymous) says: It is entirely possible for parents to be pro-life, pro-family, and to have both parents working. That is how the majority of American families operate. I would venture to say that Sarah Palin is more “in touch” with the problems facing ordinary Americans than any vice-presidential candidate, ever.~~~While I agree with that it is possible for parents to do this, this is not the case when you get to jobs such as Governor and VP. There is not a way to trade shifts with these types of jobs. These jobs are incredibly time consuming. Given that neither Todd Palin nor Sarah Palin can operate as the typical American family as they have their schedules set up, it is just not a good comparision.Both of them are lucky that they can afford to hire someone to care for their kids full-time. Most typical American families can't. While it is good that they have been successful enough to do so, it is one of the reasons why Sarah Palin is not in touch with most American families or their issues.

Big whoop refers to the reduction in earmarks that some are falsely trying to attribute to Sarah Palin's actions. It has nothing to do with her choice to give birth or her family's choices. Both of which I respect but find inconsistent with her public policy platforms.

A woman with children is just as capable of fulfilling the duties and responsibilities of Vice President or Commander in Chief as is a man, even if one or more of the children has “special needs.”I feel like I have travelled in time back to the 70's. This is extremely weird. Apparrently the only ones who truly enacted the original feminist ideal of equality for women and the attending responsibility that it entails, are conservative women.

kansas778 (Anonymous) says:JohnBrown, again, how do you explain the drastic reduce in earmarks going to Alaska under Governor Palin? You're lying, and it's embarassing. There's no need to respond to any of other your unsubstiated criticisms after you've been caught lying already.My response;1- in a March 18 Juneau Empire op-ed, John Katz, Alaska's director of state-federal relations and special counsel to Palin, wrote that in 2008, the Palin administration “request[ed] 31 earmarks, down from 54 last year.” Of these, 27 involve continuing or previous appropriations and four are new. The total dollar amount of these requests has been reduced from about $550 million in the previous year to just less than $200 million.Conclusion: Palin asked for earmarks this year.2- why were the earmarks asked for this year lower than before? —Congress has instituted reforms including the identification of each earmark's sponsor and a prohibition against earmarks inserted into the budget without public discussion.—Earlier this year, President Bush and the congressional leadership announced that the total number and dollar amount of earmarks must be reduced significantly.Conclusion: Earmarks are declining nationwide, not because of some decision by Gov. Palin.Where is it that I have lied? I deserve an apology.

at 6:20 p.m. “tin” said:”I'm sure if you really wanted to know the answers to your questions you would take the time to GOOGLE for answers. But instead of looking for answers and the truth you just want to post up a bunch of questions to try and cast doubt on her character and her word.”My reply: You are correct, I am interested in casting doubt on her word, because what she has said is not true, but rather was said to mislead (a character issue). in fact, I knew the answers before I asked them. Just wanted to see if any of her rabid supporters would come out front and address them.Bridge to Nowhere: Palin recently said” “I told Congress, 'Thanks, but no thanks,' on that bridge to nowhere.”What really happened? October 22, 2006, Anchorage Daily News asked then-gubernatorial candidate Palin the question, “Would you continue state funding for the proposed Knik Arm and Gravina Island bridges?” her answer: “Yes”. PolitiFact.com reports: “By the time Palin pulled the plug on the Gravina bridge project in September 2007, much of the federal funding for the bridge had already been diverted to other transportation projects.” It further stated that “[w]hen Palin says 'I told Congress, 'Thanks, but no thanks,' on that bridge to nowhere,' it implies Congress said, 'Here's a check for that bridge' and she responded, 'No thanks, that's wasteful spending; here's your money back.' That's not what happened. Fact is, Alaska took the bridge money, and then just spent it on other projects. Conclusion: I did not lie about this one.I will be glad to make additional posts addressing the queries I asked, if you will acknowledge she mislead the people she spoke to (of which I was one).All I want is a full accounting of her (and your) ability to separate the truth from Alaskan yarn spinning.

I am looking forward to Barack Hussein Obama's comments on this matter of a teenaged Muslim girl having killed by her own family.Unless I am mistaken, Barack Hussein Obama has immediate family members who are Muslim and it is my thought that he should comment on this, especially as regards how the Muslim branch of his family feels about it.http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,24302102-401,00.html”Married at 9, slain by parents at 17By Bruce Loudon in IslamabadSeptember 06, 2008 12:00am. despair among human rights workers in Pakistan over a rash of so-called “honour killings” intensified yesterday when it was disclosed that a girl forced into marriage with a 45-year-old man at the age of nine had been killed by her parents because she asked for an annulment.The girl, 17, who had been fighting a lonely but successful legal battle, was coming out of court in the Punjabi city of Sahiwal after being granted the annulment by a judge when she was surrounded by a group of men and shot in view of police. The death of Saira Nusrat Bibi has added further to concerns among human rights campaigners already outraged over the case of five women - among them three teenage schoolgirls - buried alive in the province of Baluchistan because they wanted to marry men of their choice in defiance of the wishes of tribal leaders. The Baluchistan case was worsened by an attempt by a member of the country's national parliament, senator Israr Ullah Zehri, to defend it, telling colleagues that “these are centuries-old traditions and I will continue to defend them”, The Weekend Australian reports. Members of the religious Jamaat-e-Islami party rounded on Senator Zehi, declaring: “We condemn this barbaric act. This is against Islam, against humanity and against civilised culture.” Yesterday, the Government bowed to pressure and ordered an inquiry into the killings. Details that have emerged from the village of Baba Kot in Baluchistan indicate that the three girls — aged between 16 and 18 - and two of their elderly relatives were “shot at” before being buried alive.”When the fuming elders of the Umrani tribe came to know about the intentions of these girls, they picked them up from their homes along with two of their elderly relatives,” one account said. “The crying girls were pushed into official cars and driven to a deserted area. There they were pushed out of the cars, made to stand in a queue, and volleys of shots fired at them. As the bleeding girls fell to the sand, the tribesmen dragged them into a nearby ditch and levelled it with earth and stones. “As the two shocked elderly women tried to rescue the hapless girls, they too were gunned down and buried in the same manner. The killers after burying these women returned to their tribe like conquerors without any action taken against them”

Big Prune, her high approval rating is due to her giving each taxpayer about $1800 from the Alaskan franchise on oil, caused by the recently high oil prices. This is great fiscal planning, instead of socking that money into a state fund for rainy days (like when the oil runs out) she's out creating a welfare state.I asked if Palin left her town in the red or black? Answer, the town had no debt when she took office, but after 6 years the town had a debt of $22 million. $15 million went for a community center, even tho the town had no sewage treatment plant.Palin is not a fiscal conservative when it come to OPM.

Now that we've gotten all the Red Herrings netted anad safely cooling in the hold, let's get back to business and deal with the initial topic of this discussion; why liberals hate Sarah Palin!Now…..based on the replies and my own experience, I'm going to summarise a few of these reasons, based on the time proven *SWAG* method Scientific Wild A**ed Guess) just to see how close to the mark I really am.Sarah Palin is:(1) Hated by “liberal” women because she chose life over the vivisection of her unborn Down's Syndrome child. shot that whole “It's a blessing to abort a disabled child!” thing all to Glory, she did.(2) Liberal women hate Sarah Palin because Sarah Palin is everything that they are not; an intelligent, beautiful, powerful and influential woman and the Liberal women haven't the faintest idea where to start in pitiful but doomed attempts to emulate such a woman.(3) Most liberal men don't really hate Sarah Palin but have to act like theydo lest their liberal wives dump the dinner plate on their heads at the first sign of any sort of approval of Sarah Palin.(4) Liberals across the entire spectrum of that strange philosophy hate Sarah Palin because liberals have wanted a awomen a heartbeat away from the Oval Office and they are now going to have one; just not the kind that they wanted.(5) Liberals hate Sarah Palin because they know that should, God forbid, President McCain become disabled or pass away at a point beyond halfway in his term of office, liberals would be looking at a full ten years of Palin administration; the thought of which drives liberals to things like Panama Red, MD 20-20 and absinthe.Well, so much for my *SWAG*!Anyone care to add to the plethora of reasons why liberals hate Sarah Palin?

I don't hate Palin. I am definitely glad she did not abort her child just because he has Down Syndrome. Frankly the comment about liberal women hating her because she is a “intelligent, beautiful, powerful and influential woman” is disgusting. I am all of those things, but because my views differ from yours, you think that I am not. I will not vote for Palin, but it is because I do not agree with her/McCain's platform. As for the killing of the Muslim girl, that is just sick and wrong! I don't get what that really has to do with Obama though. Is he guilty by association? Because he happened to be born to a Muslim man he must think it is ok. I was also born to a Muslim man, who by the way does not share those believes, so does that make the killings ok with me? NO! Most Muslims would condemn those killings. The people who do condene those actions are a few religious zealots. Unfortunately, every religion has a few nuts!

Do some research and you can find the answers yourself but since you asked:I have done this for you.”JackKats, I looked it up too, and found a few errors of fact that relate to my previous queries.1. “One of Palin's first acts as governor was to sell the governor's jet on eBay. ” Not true. she did put the $2.7 million jet up on eBay, but there were no offers, so it was sold by a broker for $2.1 million, at a loss.2.” yes, she did finally turn down the money for the bridge. Yes, that meant changing her mind about it.” Wrong. She did NOT turn down that money, she accepted it an spent it on other projects. From the Anchorage Daily News: “The Alaska governor campaigned in 2006 on a build-the-bridge platform, telling Ketchikan residents she felt their pain when politicians called them “nowhere.” They're still feeling pain today in Ketchikan, over Palin's subsequent decision to use the bridge funds for other projects —”.3. the site confirms my statement that Palin left the town she was mayor of with $22 million in debt.4. Re: God's war. See the AP piece “Palin: Iraq war 'a task that is from God' by gene johnson: anchorage, Alaska (AP) - Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin told ministry students at her former church that the United States sent troops to fight in the Iraq war on a “task that is from God.” Thanks for “researching”, but no thanks.We need straight talk, not more Alaskan yarn spinning.

Marion, I made it very clear that I was not accusing you, I was asking for an explanation.You did use it in a disparaging manner, so whether it was racist or not, you insulted people who wear “dreads”. And you twisted it into another “reason” why “liberals hate Gov. Palin.”That statement is getting really old. I am a liberal and I do not hate Sarah Palin and many other liberals commenting here have said the same thing. Talk about beating a dead horse.

Jonas, Give Marion a break, and stop wasting your time. Malkin is a graduate of Oberlin College, one of the best liberal arts schools in the country. I doubt Marion has more than a high school education. As Malkin has a national audiience, her lies are potentially dangerous. Marion, on the other hand, is merely another local oddity whose significance barely rises to the level of amusement and entertainment.

no, no, no.Marion was never cool.It really makes me sick when I have to agree with him.Quite frankly, I have just glossed over all the posts, so I really don't have much of an idea what was discussed. I really can't stand to read them.Not all liberals hate Palin. Just the “elitists” that this town has in abundance. This meaning that if you dont agree with them on any issue, you are just plain stupid. I really have a big problem with folks like that. They claim to be “the people party”, but they really hate people with an opinion that differs from theirs.I am a swing-voter. One of the folks that is going to make a difference, in this election. I may vote for the GOP this time, mainly because Obama seems more of a “concept” than a person. And, its always fun to see the elitists, whine and moan.

Mr. Lynn clearly has issues with reality.I sure he has lots of issues deriving from a childhood full of trauma when normal kids did not accept his weird behavior and regularly made fun of him. No rational person trying to start a reasonable debate starts off a post like that Mr. Lynn did in this thread. Thus, I see no reason to be civil with him because civil is not what he wanted with this post.But, other then pointing out that is obvious that this guy Marion Lynn is a weirdo with issues who likes to try to satisfy them on the internet, I will not comment further or give this idiot any additional satisfaction by giving him enough recognition to otherwise debate the issue with him.I will not look at this thread again.

That's absurd. I don't care if she's a woman and has five children. And why would anyone WANT someone else to get an abortion? It's about the freedom to choose, especially in extreme circumstances. She is anti-choice, she does not believe global warming is “man-made,” she wants creationism taught in schools, she apparently hates polar bears, believes in abstinence-only education, and she's shady as hell. She's an evangelical crazy and any informed voter will see through her America's favorite hockey mom facade and vote for the other party.

Ok, so you “respect much of the research and it is an historically significant volume of research”Truth of the matter is that all of Mr. Irving's so-called research has been for one purposea vain and demented attempt at convincing the world that the Holocaust never happened.” And you respect that? “Mr. Irving is responsible for the preservation of thousands of documents and interview which without him would be lost and which would never have occurred”What did he do. Find some old Nazi documents in a trash demister and place them in baggies? He may mention old documents in his “research,” but only becasue they have already been preserved by other historical entities and repositories. . “Mr, Irving is a brilliant historian, multi-lingual, an unstoppable rand effective researcher”So you believe a Holocaust Denier is “brilliant? “Effective researcher.?” If he is so effective, then why are his conclusions categorically rejected by mainstream historians?

“If he is so effective, then why are his conclusions categorically rejected by mainstream historians?”I'm sure it's the liberal bias of the mainstream media. Looks like your blog is still up, Marion. Guess you need to try harder next time.… . or admit that your hypothesis was incorrect.

Pogo has no idea what he/she/it is writing about. Why don't you detectives go to the old LJW files, way back into the hard copy or the microfilm?In the meantime, TheSychophant (Anonymous), since you claim to be Jewish, I'm wondering if you would comment on the chrages filed today agains the largets Kosher slaughterhouse in the nation; those charges having to do with…well…here is snippet:”des moines, Iowa (AP) — The owner and managers of the nation's largest kosher meatpacking plant were charged Tuesday with more than 9,000 misdemeanors alleging child labor law violations. The allegations are the first criminal charges against operators of the Agriprocessors plant in Postville, where nearly 400 illegal immigrants working at the facility were arrested in May in one of the largest single-site immigration raids in U.S. history.”“Each defendant … hired children, retained the employment of children observed working throughout the plant, and/or participated in efforts to conceal children when federal and state labor department officials inspected that plant,” the affidavit said.The more than 9,000 violations the state alleges fall into five categories: employing a child under age 18 in a meatpacking plant; employing a child under age 18 in an occupation that exposes the child to dangerous or poisonous chemicals; employing a child under age 16 who operated power machinery; employing a child under age 16 who worked during prohibited hours or more hours in a day than permitted by law; and employing a child under 16 who worked more days in a week than permitted by law.It said the company's records also show that employees were not paid for all overtime worked.”http://www.cnn.com/2008/CRIME/09/09/slaughterhouse.child.labor.ap/index.htmlReads like a work camp of some kind to me but what do I know?

TheSychophant (Anonymous, By Webster's; parasite), what about this child slave labour in the Kosher slaughterhouse run by Agriprocessors ?Rabbis are present at all times during the Schechita in order to make certain that all food from such slaughter is obtained in accordance with the Kashrut, or “Kosher” in English.These Rabbis are paid by the slaughterhouse to be present and to enforce Kosher.Now since Agriprocessors employs illegal aliens and illegally employs children and if the charges are true, in near slave labour conditions, these questions must be asked; “What did the Rabbis know about these atrocities?”“When did the Rabbis know?”Did the Rabbis continue to work for this plant after becoming aware of these slave labour-like conditions and the employment of illegal aliens?”“If so, why?”“Did the Rabbis merely look the other way?”Or were the Rabbis only following orders?How did the supervising Rabbis handle the matter, do you suppose?

Independents now break for McCain by 15 percentage points (46 percent to 31 percent) in a FOX News poll released Wednesday.Last month, Obama had a one-point edge among independents (August 19-20, 2008).Overall, McCain leads Obama by 45 percent to 42.”http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,420361,00.html

I momentarily withdraw my abandonment of “debating a Nazi'Marion wrote: “it only makes sense to ask a member of a specific religious, political or ethnic group to comment on events which emante [sic]' from or directly affect that group”So, the criminal acts of a few multimillionaire businessmen in Postville, Iowa “emanate” from the Jewish “group.” Marion the dishonest and nasty inference you seek to draw is clear: A family of millionaires (by the way, very politically conservative and right-wing Orthodox Jews clearly outside the mainstream of worldwide Judaism) are allegedly dishonest crooks who, in your own words, run “work camps.” Therefore, all Jews are cheats, crooks and cruel. Apparently, you reading list is not limited to David Irving, but his progeny as well—i.e. your dear fuhrer Adolph and sidekick Goebbels—who argued that since a few Jews happened to communists, all Jews were communists, and were the cause of Germany's post WWI failures. We all know the end result of that viscous slander. And how the hell do allegations (probably true) against one company “affect all Jews.” For two thousand years anti-Semites have been inciting violence and hatred against Jews by slander, the “big lie”, outright lies, false statements, dishonest innuendo, intellectual dishonesty, etc. You continue in that medieval, backward, bizarre, warped and anti-American tradition.”One last question, Marion? Who is your favorite nazi?

Ron Paul Rejects McCain Republican Rep. Ron Paul, the libertarian-leaning Texas lawmaker who attracted a devoted following in the GOP primaries, said Wednesday he rejected an appeal to endorse John McCain's presidential bid.Paul said the request came from Phil Gramm, the former McCain adviser and ex-senator whom the campaign jettisoned after he said the country was a “nation of whiners” about the economy. Gramm defeated Paul in the Republican primary for the Senate in 1984.

I am sick of this crap too. If I might add something else I see: political filters and blinders. It seems like any event or idea coming in goes thru some kind of category filter. After it passes thru, it can be only one of two things…liberal or conservative. There is no other possible category. Depending on your preference, one is good while the other is evil. You cannot disagree with some viewpoint. You must “hate” it.And people also got blinders on. The right has got them on the left side of there faces so they cannot possibly even consider an opposing viewpoint. The left has got them propped on the right side.All of this is the most bereft and lowest common denominator nonsense it makes me sick. This country is in terrible shape if it's people continue to resort to this stupidity. Why can't anybody think for themselves anymore.

Just what I need to spin out this guy because I already know where he will go with it and it should be good for some kicks and giggles!”And you went exactly where I thought you would go and you are spinning like a dreidel on steroids!Don't like it when the tables are turned, do you?I also intentionally left out the link to the story just for effect but here it is now but before thte link; from the article:”The actions of this company have brought shame upon the entire Jewish community,” the commission said. “Yesterday's discovery, along with the other violations of the ethical standards set forth by our Torah and our tradition underscore the need for Hekhsher Tzedek. To be sure, Halacha has never limited its concern to the ritual elements of Kashrut alone.” http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellit… you see, you have chosen to distance yourself from the plant operators, describing them as “conservative”!LOL !And La-Dee- Da!It might interest you to know that most of my employment history in the private sector was with Jewish family-owned companies; Burstein-Applebee, McGee Radio, Albert Bell's and a couple of others, going back to my teens when I was a Shabbas Goy, so go accuse some one else of being “Anti-Semitic'!Have a happy spin!

It is a fact, reported by your beloved CNN. That Palin in fact never advocated teaching creationism in schools. She only said she thought that if students wanted to debate the issue, that should be allowed. It is also reported on CNN that Palin never asked for any books to be banned. If you refer to the “list” that liberal bloggers are passing around. It has the first four “Harry Poter” books on them. These books weren't even in print when this incident supposedly took place.The jet was put on ebay, but did not sell on ebay. they had to use a plane-broker. It did sell, but for a loss. The Governor who purchased the plane paid quite a bit more for it than it was worth. Sweetheart deal by the previous Governor?These are facts as reported by CNN, hardly a conservative mouthpiece. And they have written documentation to back it up. Any other silly untruths that need to be debunked?HMMMM?

It is inaccurate to mention hate and liberals in reference to Palin. We have gotten way off track in this country when elections pit one party against the other in a Texas death match. It's not about hate and it's certainly not about liberals and I will prove it with the following single issue…no social issues, no tax policy, no gun rights but a real burning issue that effects all of us.It is highly probable that Putin and other less than pro-American leaders in the world will take an agressive stance on something that we don't necessarily think is correct. We know that McCain has a tendency towards military action and now we also know that Palin has those same tendencies based on the fact that she mentioned war with Russia round-aboutly in her lone interview. We don't need war-mongering. Even if you forgive the moral wrongness of this stance, we are physically no longer in a position to “go for the gun first” particularly when it is not fully justified. All but the dumbest of Americans understand that what is needed right now is a progressive foreign policy stance, not sabre rattling. We are running out of leverage. We use to use moral standing, diplomacy, economic considerations, sanctions, and military force, in that order, as a method of looking out for our best interests. We no longer have a moral standing, no evident diplomatic ability, a sagging economy, and a tired, under staffed military. It's time we all wake up from our post-9/11 fog and re-claim our leadership in the world with the time tested tools of intelligence, innovation, courage, compassion and leadership.The McCain/Palin approach, to the extent that it has been explained to the electorate, is wrong-headed, dangerous, and likely to cost us for generations. It's not about hate, it's about ability and McCain/Palin ain't it!

I rather like this one, published today:”Who Hates Sarah Palin?Wednesday, September 10, 2008By Greg GutfeldAccording to many in the media, we truly have discovered someone worse than Hitler - and it's Sarah Palin.Head to any left-wing blog or even CNN for that matter and you'll find the zaniest of conspiracies — froth that even a dude with rabies would find unseemly.So how can one person create so much bile among folks who claim to be the most tolerant in the universe? I mean, liberals are the good people: They're open-minded, caring and of course, fair.But somehow, a Republican lady in her 40s is exempt from this treatment. Perhaps, she truly is the devil in a dress, a ghoul that eats children and pollutes the planet and possibly beats Barack Obama, the patron saint of every customer buying wheat germ in bulk at GNC.But I know the real reason why every single elitist media type is terrified of her. They've never met her. And by “her,” I don't mean Sarah Palin. I mean “her”, an actual normal woman with a bunch of kids, an average husband and no desire to watch “The L Word.”She's scary to these folks the way Wal-Mart is scary to them: Both are alien to someone who blogs about their chakras. They won't go there, because they've never been there.To them, hating Sarah Palin is a symptom of larger bigotry against the rest of us, the normal. If they saw her at a party, they would wonder how she got in. She's the anti-Obama, the anti-New York Times, the anti-everything that Tim Robbins loves, which is why I love her - and you should too.And if you disagree with me, then you sir are worse than Hitler.”http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,420161,00.html

I am sure you've heard of him—son of Holocaust survivors turned Holocaust revisionist. By virtue of this paradox, he is viewed as a self-hating Jew. Like Finkelstein, you seek to minimize the Holocaust. And like he, you, too, appear to to be a victim of Nazi philosophy. You are not Jewish. But I surmise you are a homosexual. And there's nothing wrong with that. But you shouldn't hate yourself. No, I am not outing you, but your sexual orientation was a fairly easy guess: Williams S. Burroughs, the notorious tortured homosexual turned heroin addict whom you used to quote as part of your signature, and whom You publically praise. Which, of course, explains your alias of Nick Danger. Which, of course, explains your relationship with “business partner” Ben. And while I understand your practice of creating fictional identities to “ditto” your posts, you need to be a little more careful. Remember 'jeremyhay” the Brit turned Hamburg resident, and “fan of Lawrence.” Marion, your fraud was transparent. Nonetheless, You did a nice job recycling him. . Okay, You created him to bolster your revisionist theories on the bombing of Hamburg. How convenient that a former Brit living in Hamburg for ten years with no reason to even peruse the LJW, would ââ Åcome out of the wood work,ââ  register with the LJW, and write a missive seconding your Holocaust revisionist theories. . But after he's no longer necessary to “bolster” your bulls**t on the holocaust, you put him on the shelf, and thereafter revived him from the dead to author his post praising one your old adversaries Pywacket, about his views on bees. Come now. How absurd. Your motives are transparent. Coddling up to Pywacket's and otherwise attempting to gain his confidence in order to ascdsrtain his true identify so You can stalk him in your typical fashion. Attempted like a true conman.

Many heterosexuals understand that is simply the way you are wiredFunny that you have made numerous posts attacking the religious right re: their backward attitude towards gays. Again, something a garden variety right winger is not apt to do, unless we, and you, acknowledge your homosexuality, and then, of course, it is very understandable. By the way, did you create the fictional poster wittman to hid the fact that you are gay? Very sad and pathetic that you, a homosexual, would write such vile homophobic, anti-Semitic and racist stuff. But understandable and entirely consistent with a self-hater. I urge you to seek professional help. Perhaps you can eventually come out of the closet, which might be the right medicine for your troubled psyche. One final note. Before you attempt to stalk me like you have done with others, please realize that I am talented beyond our wildest dreams, and will stick the proverbial and figurative boot up your ass in response. Practice safe sex ,and again, please seek help.By the way, several years ago a KU student formed a ââ Åfag busterââ  hate drive against gays. Ends up he was gay himself.

Marion, It was not my intention to “out” you as a homosexual. Instead, I was hoping that my missive might precipate a bit of self inquiry, and perhaps convince you to seek help . If indeed you are gay, as I suspect, and as others have from time to time faintly implied, your public posting of my private message to you is commendable. It is not uncommon for gays in your age group to have a damaged psyche because of the unwarranted and ugly hate heaped upon gays while you were growing up. While things ahve gotten a lot better, thanks, in part, to the Gay Pride movement, we have a long way to go. And, if there is any backlash to your self=outing, please let us know. While most of us may disagree with your tortured and warped political viewpoints, we have nothing against your sexual orienation, and will stand with you against any homophobic attcks. IMHO, the attraction gays feel towards their same sex is as normal as the feeling heterosexuals have towards the opposite sex. After all, “God” created each and every one of us as unique beings. May you find strength in your recovery. Best wishes.

And by the way, Maron, I suggest you study the tragic life of Roy Cohen, as closeted gay, who vehemently denied his sexual orientation until; his very last breath, and in doing so, denied his very being. Most Gay people, I understand, feel “liberated” and freed upon “coming out.” I am sure many therapists, as well as caring and couragous members of the gay community, are willing to offer you their empathic assistance. In the final analysis, your sexual orientation is relevant only to the extent that you cease being ashamed of yourself. There is no shame in loving another human being, regardless of their gender. MOst of us don't care about your private sexual life. But we do care about your warped political views, especially your admiration of David Irving and others. While rare, there are some beautiful stories of neo-Nazi rehabilitation through courage, self-introspection, and assistance from the many enlightened people of the world who have infinite faith in the the hope and promise of humanity. The human psyche, by its very nature, is subject to profound damage caused, tragically, by the collective hand of humanity. But please realize that same human psyche is capable of profound liberation and self-actualization by seeking and knowing the inherent potential for goodness in all of us. Please, give it a try.

Okay, all, now that Marion has been counseled, further responses to his posts will only serve as further enablement. Lets have some empathy. While his traumatic life experiences do not justify his hate, lets have some empathy. Leave him alone and perhaps the lack of attention will cause him to “hit bottom” and thereafter seek help.

Liberals hate Sarah Palin because liberals value intelligence and Sarah Palin is an idiot. Seriously people, think. Alaska is one of the most right-leaning states in the country. Any one of you could move up there and run for mayor of a small town as a republican. Since the people will vote for a republican for governor anyway, you may as well continue your mission of personal achievement and run for governor. Hmm..what's next? In order to continue ladder-climbing, you could turn on your party, be labeled a “reformer” or “maverick” and then maybe get to run for vice president the next time the republicans need a token candidate to disguise a pathetic platform. McCain's a good guy, but anyone who supports him for president is simply an enemy of American society. Some support McCain out of blind-party-loyalty. They come from families that always vote republican and unfortunately never had the educational opportunity to provide them with the mental capacity needed to make their own informed, rational decisions. Some succumb to their racism and simply cannot ever vote for a black man for president. Some hate society and thus love to hate the person who they see as being favored by popular society. A few are wealthy and money hungry and want to eliminate as many barriers as possible to their greedy pursuit of wealth. Others have a perverse facination with seeing how detrimental the republican ideology can be to a continuously evolving society and love to see the United States hated by the rest of the world. The rest are just simpletons who will vote for McCain only because he is a POW American hero with experience. McCain supporters should be insulted that he chose Palin. In doing so, he was banking on the fact that enough Americans would be too stupid to see anything other than a supposedly good-looking (?) “hockey mom” who “kills her own food”. Women in particular should feel insulted, because this was aimed at them. The idea was that women are so stupid that they'll vote for a woman no matter what she stands for or how intelligent and qualified she is. There's really no way to be nice about it. McCain/Palin supporters either hate America, or some element of it, or are just plain undereducated, ignorant morons.

Liberals hate Sarah Palin because she is telling the so-called “investigators” , backed up by Barack H.Obama's team of thirty lawyers, to go fly a kite.From the citation:”Democrats understand Sarah Palin is a formidable political force who has upset the Obama victory plan. The latest Washington Post/ABC Poll shows John McCain taking a 12-point lead over Barack Obama among white women, a reversal of Mr. Obama's eight-point lead last month. It's no surprise, then, that Democrats have airdropped a mini-army of 30 lawyers, investigators and opposition researchers into Anchorage, the state capital Juneau and Mrs. Palin's hometown of Wasilla to dig into her record and background. My sources report the first wave arrived in Anchorage less than 24 hours after John McCain selected her on August 29.”http://online.wsj.com/article/SB122098190668515511.html?mod=opinion_journal_political_diary

NOW's endorsement of Obama based on McCain's choice of Palin as his VP validates my choice to distance myself from women's organizations, particularly NOW and the University Women's association. Years and years ago, when I was recruited to join, and attended their meetings, I realized they were not about the rights of all women - they were only about the rights of women who were willing to act out the role of victim, who were more interested in blaming men for their situation in life than they were in blazing their own paths.NOW and liberal academic women hate Sarah Palin because she has met with success without portraying herself as a victim, without hating men, in general, but, rather, by confronting, challenging and taking down corrupt individuals who happened to be men. The fact that Sarah is unabashedly attractive is just another burr under the saddle of the average member of NOW,I am so happy to see the die hard members of NOW exposed for the selfish, shortsighted and small people they are. If I could exact vengeance for the negative influence NOW has had on my life, it would be the election of Sarah Palin to be the first female VP of the United States.

Yet another reason why liberals hate Sarah Palin:”juneau, Alaska - Alaska's attorney general says state employees subpoenaed in the investigation of Gov. Sarah Palin will not testify.In a letter to the Democratic state senator overseeing the investigation, Attorney General Talis Colberg asks that the subpoenas be withdrawn. He also says the employees will not appear before the investigator unless either the full state Senate or the entire Alaska Legislature votes to compel their testimony.Last week, a committee of lawmakers issued subpoenas for 13 people, including Todd Palin, the governor's husband, in the investigation of whether the governor fired her public safety chief for refusing to dismiss her former brother-in-law, an Alaska State Trooper.All those summoned are state employees, except Todd Palin.”http://elections.foxnews.com/2008/09/16/alaska-ag-says-no-to-subpoenas/

Still another reason why liberals hate Sarah Palin and why their unrestrained and irrational hatred is increasing:”September 17, 2008Prominent Clinton backer and DNC member to endorse McCain”” washington (cnn) - Lynn Forester de Rothschild, a prominent Hillary Clinton supporter and member of the Democratic National Committee's Platform Committee, will endorse John McCain for president on Wednesday, her spokesman tells CNN.The announcement will take place at a news conference on Capitol Hill, just blocks away from the DNC headquarters. Forester will “campaign and help him through the election,” the spokesman said of her plans to help the Republican presidential nominee.Forester was a major donor for Clinton earning her the title as a Hillraiser for helping to raise at least $100,000 for the New York Democratic senator's failed presidential bid.In an interview with CNN this summer, Forester did not hide her distaste for eventual Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama.”This is a hard decision for me personally because frankly I don't like him,” she said of Obama in an interview with CNN's Joe Johns. “I feel like he is an elitist. I feel like he has not given me reason to trust him.”Forester is the CEO of EL Rothschild, a holding company with businesses around the world. She is married to international banker Sir Evelyn de Rothschild. Forester is a member of the DNC's Democrats Abroad chapter and splits her time living in London and New York.”http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/And the hits just keep on coming!

She can't extinguish the fire that has been on top of Matt Kleinnman's head for 21+ years3. She can't magically fix the potholes that plague Lawrence roads4. She can't magically eliminate the existence of round-abouts5. She can't yell like Bill O'Reilly6. She can't talk without me wanting to press mute and hope the channel has closed captioning because of her terrible accent7. She can't ball it up with Obama8. She can't be creative with her e-mail account passwords9. She looks like Tina Fey10. ……..And most importantly she hasn't been on either the Daily Show or The Colbert Report.
