    Liberals: You have done enough. Have you no sense of decency?

    Have you no shame? the party of "hope and change" has become the party of racism, sexism, and misogyny. is that how you want this historic election remembered? i am dumbstruck at the viciousness from the left, and the glee exhibited by most of the liberal posters here. it's been bad before, but the latest today, which reads as if it were extracted from the bowels of the dailykos, is simply the most despicable example of character assassination i have ever witnessed.

    all of you who have been a part of it should be ashamed of yourselves. and if you win...like this...how could you ever look yourself in the eye again?

    it's a black eye on the face of Houston Rockets fandom.

    Are you going to stop talking about Rezko, Ayers, Wright, and being a Muslim?

    Yeah....that's what I thought.

    2 can play this game. She needs to suck it up and take or get out of the game.

    Yeppers. The stuff regarding the family is way out of bounds, but the rest of it is no worse than what the righties have been spewing out since the beginning of the year. At least some of them at least admit as such.

    Just shut up. Your whole MO in here is calling the people who disagree with you anti american terrorist sympathizers. Where was your condimnation when people were saying Obama was a "secret muslim" who isn't even a legal citizen?

    You are calling out everybody for every thread started, but I never see any of the liberals here blaming refman or weslinder for every thread you or T_J start, so just shut up.

    I'm pretty sure she can handle it and american doesn't really like people who keep insulting women. well good looking women. No one seems to care if people say terrible things about the Clinton women.

    I'd still like to beat the crap outta Rush for that crap.

    If someone has said that, I have missed it. To my knowledge, no one has said:

    1) That Palin is not qualified to be VP because she is a WOMAN! Saying that if someone says she is unqualified makes them a misoygnist is like saying that anyone who says Obama isn't qualified hates blacks.

    2) That the daughter is horrible and should have an abortion. I think most liberals, conservatives, and moderates all agree that this could happen to anyone's family and applaud her for keeping the baby. I haven't heard anyone saying that the daughter is terrible and should abort her baby.

    The problem is that it was McCain/Palin that dropped her in the grease to fight a completely different rumor. No one knew she was pregnant until they put her in the spotlight to suit their own political convenience. McCain/Palin should have made the GOOD JUDGMENT to NOT reveal that she was pregnant until after the election when there would have been less scrutiny, if at all.

    3) Troopergate is a LEGITIMATE issue. Abuse of your elected position powers to settle family dispute issues makes one unqualified for public office. She was under investigation for this before being nominated, so blaming the liberals for this is ridiculous.

    4) Palin's membership/potential membership/support/and-or video message encouraging the support of an independance party that wants Alaska to secede from the United States of America is a VERY LEGITIMATE political issue for someone wanting to be VP of the US. It goes to the heart of PATRIOTISM.

    I could continue, but you should get the point by now. The fact of the matter about the daughter though is that we live in a soap opera culture that has nothing to do with Dems and Reps. As soon as McCain/Palin dropped Palin's daughter in the grease by making her pregnancy nationwide fodder, they did her a disservice and unjustified outing. It was not necessary for them to expose this to squash the other rumor.

    how about people assassinating the parents of britney spears? how come nobody stood up for them? :confused:

    look, this is politics and i don't like the things and ads produced by both sides. but how are you telling THE MEDIA of all people to stop talking about her when she's running for VP?

    this is america, not alaska. this is an election the WORLD is watching. you must like the 1800s where TVs and internet and media are not available.

    she knew what she was getting herself into. mccain WARNED her and she knew about it. let it be.

    Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
    Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
    I'm in love, I'm a believer!
    I couldn't leave her if I tried.

    fwiw Michael Savage is trashing Palin on the radio right now... saying that it was a terrible pick, mccain now has no chance, Palin should save face and withdraw, comparing her to Miers

    So its not just liberals who have a problem with VPs with no credentials and questionable judgement

    Oh, how nice. It looks like I found myself in another thread of garbage and grown-man whining.

    Stop with the blaming and realize that this is not a 'liberal' issue.


    I love coming into this forum and reading RELEVANT politcal discussion and debate, but not this playground bullcrap.

    Good grief.

    I expect more to continue to come out eventually. This facade is not going to hold up much longer I doubt.

    Your signature presents an interesting analogy that I have not seen or looked at before.

    Obama's opposition research groups released Palin's Social Security number and home phone number today.

    Moveon.org has offered $5,000 for dirt on Palin.


    It's not even a question how corrupt a hypothetical Obama administration would be. Not even a question. This is beyond disgusting.
