Sarah Palin’s delusional blame game: Obama isn’t responsible for her son’s domestic violence charge - Salon.com
I worry that we need a headline or article to help us know that Obama is not to blame for this too, but what worries me even more is that Trump does not have the intelligence to prevent this endorsement, to distance himself from Palin, rather than jump in those photo-ops as if doing him a favor.

Or am I so wrong to think there can't be that many people supportive of the likes as compared to horrified? Is there enough support there for Trump to think this helps his chances to win, or is it maybe just a way to get the most right-winging Tea Party type side of the base rallied to keep that "energy" going?

I'm not sure what to make of it, whether to laugh or cry...

"They come back wondering if there is that respect for what it is that their fellow soldiers and airman and every other member of the military so sacrificially have given to this country, ...and that starts from the top."

"That comes from our own President, where they have to look at him and wonder, 'Do you know what we go through? Do you know what we're trying to do to secure America?'"

"So when my own son is going through what he goes through coming back, I can certainly relate with other families who kind of feel these ramifications of some PTSD and some of the woundedness that our soldiers do return with,"

Can she show that Track sought PTSD treatment and didn't get it?

As a reservist in 2008, under Bush, Track provided "air guard" protection for a Stryker vehicle in Iraq.
Why is Sarah Palin's kid worth our attention?

Because SHE brought him up when she was on the stage stumping with Trump. Because SHE stood there and blamed the president for her son's violent drunken conduct that got him arrested and thrown in jail overnight. Because SHE turned him into political fodder. What are we supposed to do, just ignore her ignorant claim against Obama? Consider it fact-checking the woman.

Your concern for veterans appears rather feigned. As a veteran myself I don't appreciate it. So stop politicizing the plight of veterans to shore up your incoherent ramblings.
I pay plenty of taxes,yet Obombus rather spend it on bringing in potential terrorists here and illegals to go on welfare instead of putting the vets first. The left loves muslims, and illegals because your dear leader has the left's devoted blind loyalty.

So - am I the only imagining Willow as biding her time, doing her homework, making notes and longing for the day she can write a helluva tell-all novel before moving to a loft in NYC?

I'm sure he considered the source and then had a good chuckle!

Honey pie, did mom forget to lock the computer down today? TOS says you have to be 13 to use the forum, and grown ups know how to use their words.

If you can't engage in a conversation without making up insulting words about your president, then maybe you should do some extra credit assignments to work on your writing and critical thinking abilities.

Oh please. As I've said this shouldn't be a partisan issue because both parties are involved. But since you went there.

Bush was president for the first 7 years of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. He spent billions of dollars on the military and peanuts on the VA and health services for veterans. Instead of spending those 7 years growing the VA and implementing a plan for how to handle an influx of returning veterans.

As much as Republicans would like to blame Democrats and Democrats want to blame Republicans sitting around pointing fingers does nothing to help veterans.

Our veterans deserve to be more than just a prop for political gains.
