The media has strung up several liberal politicians and celebrities alike since the Clinton embarrassment. Anthony Weiner, Eliot Spitzer, Rod Blagojevich, Al Franken, Jon Conyers, John Edwards, Matt Lauer, Harvey Weinstein, etc. Therefore, 4dog's statement is easily said. Perceived liberals do not get the benefit of the doubt anymore than anyone else. The rightists really need to stop playing the victim because they aren't.

Barry and Mooch have escaped unscathed by the media as has Hellary. For now. Surely you don't believe they are pure and innocent.

If so, the FNM has succeeded in what their agenda is.

I actually like the name my parents gave me so it's a non issue. And I like my husband's last name better than my maiden name and it goes fine with my given name. So I'm good to go. But my husband and I have always agreed that life is too short to go through it with a bad name. And if I had a funky last name I'd change it too. I promise!

Anyway, I have always hated the Palins' names for their kids. I mean, Bristol is the most palatable one to me, but come on - Trig? Track? Piper? (Willow is fine, I guess - but it doesn't seem to "go" with the other names.) Are these pet names? Names of horses? I mean, that's what they sound like to me.

I knew when I heard those names, "These folks ain't got no sense."
I've heard names that some celebrities name their kids. A lot worse than these.

You need to reread both 4dog's post and my reply again (and perhaps read more of 4dog's posts to know where he is coming from).



In actuality, your post above = agrees with me/proves my point, and disagrees with 4dog.

Ah, now I see one thing that happened.


4 dog replied to me with a post that had only a couple of key words that were different from mine, and you thought you were replying to me above, but you clicked on 4 dogs 90+% 'word similar' post instead.

A deflection ^^^^^.


You mentioned that leftists could cheat on their spouses and it wouldn't get reported on in the news. I was just pointing out a glaring example that show's you're wrong.

Thanks for your comment. I happen to like Sarah Palin and I think she never has received the respect she should have received. It is always a good idea to not wish bad things on others as you may find yourself in the same or worse spot someday. Would you want everyone to look down on you? Treat others as you would want to be treated.

I don't know who Mooch and FNM are, but when did Obama or Hillary have sex scandals? And when were they aligned with moral-majority Falwell types?

FNM is shorthand (I believe) for 'Fake News Media' which equals anything to the left of Fox News

'Mooch' is an alarmingly unclever nickname for a 2-time former sitting First Lady Of The United States...which means 'Barry' is President Barack Obama, a duly-elected 2-time sitting former POTUS

Note my use of their titles, which no matter how some folk like to use snarky-a** nicknames, can do a dang thing about except crack wise on the flippin' internet...that junk was relevant maybe a few years ago, but it smacks of stunted adolescence now

I'm a lifelong left-of-center Democrat, and I can assure you that during those times when my party wasn't in power, I didn't waste bandwidth and people's time mocking folks from the other party...my dad always told me 'even if you didn't ELECT the candidate, then respect their office'

While I don't wish for bad things to happen to the Palin's, as an Alaskan that's watched her rise in popularity, I don't think she earned respect. I don't live in Wasilla, so didn't participate in her election to mayor of Wasilla. But, I did participate in the election where she became governor of Alaska. Her campaign had nothing of substance and there was no way I was voting for her (and didn't). Then she quits half way through her term because she had stars in her eyes and went after the money. I'm sorry, you made a commitment for four years, you should serve your four years. I could go on but my point is that she doesn't deserve respect.
