Huh? Well, you're from Oregon. Figures. Probably no state more far left than Oregon, but California is getting close.

Bet she can. She is not the stupid person you people try to tell us she is.

She is Governor of Alaska, afterall, and she didn't get their for being stupid.

Is this all you people ever have, to call someone "stupid" that you disagree with? You can't come up with a rational argument, so you simply say that they are stupid.

"Bush is stupid, Cheney is stupid, Palin is stupid, Republicans are stupid. Haliburton, Haliburton, Haliburton, Bush lied, people died....etc, etc, etc"

Hmmm ... but yet you couldn't come up with an answer to my post either.

Default You can hate more it is all you have

You people seem to have nothing but hate to drive you. I always wonder this is hate for others or self. I believe that your hate of yourself and your own life that drives this intolerance of others.

And it's just wine and roses in your world isn't it??? If people showing their emotions during the vital election cycle scares or makes you mad, then just turn the other way, or don't open these threads. I mean, the word "hate" appears in the title. If you don't like it, then report it.

From CNN:

Palin cited an article in Saturday's New York Times about Obama's relationship with Ayers, now 63. But that article concluded that "the two men do not appear to have been close. Nor has Mr. Obama ever expressed sympathy for the radical views and actions of Mr. Ayers, whom he has called 'somebody who engaged in detestable acts 40 years ago, when I was 8.' "

Several other publications, including the Washington Post, Time magazine, the Chicago Sun-Times, The New Yorker and The New Republic, have debunked the idea that Obama and Ayers had a close relationship.

With Obama rising in polls while the country struggles in the grip of a financial crisis, Sen. John McCain's presidential campaign decided to shift attention away from the troubled economy and onto issues of his opponent's character, judgment and personal associations, the Washington Post reported.

"We're going to get a little tougher," a senior Republican operative said, requesting anonymity because he wasn't authorized to discuss strategy. "We've got to question this guy's associations. Very soon. There's no question that we have to change the subject here."
What absolutely sickens me is the fact that they're spending so much time and money spreading outright LIES against their opponent, rather than talking about what they will do to correct the problems we face. It also sickens me when people perpetuate what has been proven to be a LIE.

If you're going to oppose someone, fine. Just don't do so by spreading lies.

Don't worry, she'll work hard to 'Pray Away the Gay' and cast out the witches so FantasyLand will be a happy place and bluebirds will sing forever

I use to work with a guy who's been married to the same women for 35 years. You've never seen two people that make a better match. And she was a product of rape.


Now a 9 or ten year old, that's different.

At least Sarah or one of her handlers actually read the New York Times article. Oh wait, they didn't read all of it or they would have not used it for this allegation. Or did they read it all and decide to mislead voters? Or did they only read the headline? All of this is disturbing.

No one is saying that bearing a child conceived by rape is a bad thing. I have a friend with twins who are a product of rape. However, no one, no matter how young or old, should be forced to go through this.

The fact that she advocates denying a rape victim's choice is deeply disturbing.
