Don't know. Link to the statements first and maybe start a thread on it and we can discuss it.

Is this part one of you admitting that Palin was flat-out WRONG here?

We already have too many in this country that can't name more than two state capitals or the countries that border the United States. We don't need them thinking that Paul Revere was a double-agent on top of that..

The point is, why does the left care so much about what a private citizen says to the point of pathological obsession? She has no bearing on your life whatsoever. I'd be more concerned that the POTUS thinks that Europe is a country and asthmatics need a breathalyzer, he is relevant, he is the president.

You should try reading them, rather than using Palin as your source for U.S. History factoids...

I think Obama gets more air time in the grand scheme here at C-D than does Sarah. She just started her tour and there fore is getting some media attention which can cause a spike in stories but overall, I think she will fade from the front page of C-D in due time..

So Conservatives just want to sweep her under the carpet and pretend like she hasn't been trying to be politically relevent?

That's fine. The Tea Party has a really ODD way of doing it though.

I really wish she'd just go away, politically speaking. I don't have a problem with Palin as a person. She seems like a nice lady.

Nope, but I think it's funny that you don't even know Obama said those things. That is so typical of the Lefties here, they NEVER know what their party has even said.

Yeah ok, so you know more than the people saying what she said actually DID happen? Or are you just trying to fabricate something out of nothing here? I'm going for the latter.

Because SP's stupidity is entertaining as heck and we know she and her fans will always try to fight back.

I don't fawn on every word ever uttered. My apologies.

Again, if you'd like to post a link to them and start a thread we can discuss it....

Along those lines though, you don't think that doctors have performed unnecessary tonsilectomies? Either way, those comments don't sound like things we can go turn to page 211 in our history books to determine that they're flat out incorrect....

But that's exactly my point; how is that going to happen when the left posts half a dozen threads about her every day?
