Maybe Bristol writes all of it.

But Sarah Palin stoked a fire and now its too hot. That's what happens when you create "spin".

Her comments on the "blood libel" is another reason that she just is not ready for a national platform. She doesn't even have the common sense to ask what certain phrases mean (or their consequences) before uttering them. The issue of "blood libels" is definitely a hot button steeped in anti-Semitism.
Exactly. I would suspect these threats came from the people she ticked off - Jewish people, not liberals. Liberals know she's going down (as in finished) so no liberal has a reason to make any death threat.

Those on her own side, however, may be royally pissed off she's screwed up so much and fear another Dem win in 2012. As unhinged as so many are on her side of the aisle, I wouldn't be surprised it's not coming from some of them.

If the death threats were aimed at Obama would you take them more seriously?

If she had smarts, she would lie low and spend time counting her blessings. She has been very financially successful riding a wave that cannot last forever. She does not have the staying power and she is digging herself deeper and deeper into a hole. Like the song says...You've got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em". She has a family, can afford to do whatever she desires and still has supporters loyally following her "tweets" and such. Sarah...go home. Take care of your family and find another hobby. Even I am beginning to feel sorry for you.

It's a shade of reality-based blue.

There have been death threats on Obama made here all the time. Half of them don't even get scrubbed away, they just sit. Should we feel sorry for a woman who encouraged violence by portraying Americans as traitors, Marxists, Communists, Socialists, and even terrorists, now that she is on the other side of the attack? Sometimes things come back to bite you on the arse in life. While I don't condone this behavior, Palin should have shut the hell up today, or at the very least been gracious in her approach towards such a sensitive subject rather than make it all about herself again.

Agree with it all, except I do not feel sorry for that narcissistic, ego swollen crazy woman. BTW, she kills animals for fun and I could NEVER feel sorry for anyone like that.
