No, you haven't, and I'm sorry that I included you in the generalization. But the overwhelming majority of the Obama supporters DID.

Saying that the oldest daughter has the mother's chin, which she does, is nothing compared to the really nasty things said about the Palin kids. It WILL be fun to watch the youngish First Family settle in to the White House but it just amazes me that the Dems can raise up one family while continuing to trash another family and see NOTHING wrong or hypocritical about that.

Don't include me in that. Not once have I ever bashed her children. I even took up for her child when people were saying she was exploiting the child and making that remark you referred to. Her children are precious, too. I have made it my point to stick to the fact that she is not qualified to be either VP or President. Don't put everyone into the same basket.

The posters who bashed the Palin children were in turn bashed by BOTH sides of the tickets. NO ONE should attack innocent children. I never contributed to any negative post regarding the Palin children.

If teatime, as she posted, considers the Obama children, 'fair game', bring it on beech, 'cause I'm armed and waiting. I'll be danm'd if I'm going to sit quiet and not give back what's being shoveled out.

There were just a few jerks out there that made some comments. A few of them were banned I believe. Not all or most of the Obama supporters were doing this. Just like not all, or most of the McCain supporters were being jerks either.

This jerk really stands out, I believe he was banned. And people from both sides came to Palin's defense on this particular comment.

Yet another by the same moron, I guess the original post was deleted but this quote wasn't. So all the lefties are arseholes because of one who proved himself to be just that?

The vast majority of posts were against Palin for using her son as a campaign prop and you damn well know it.
