    Where did this Palin thing come from? I thought the knock on her is she's not smart enough for high office, not that she's racist.

    That came mostly from my attempt to draw a parallel between Palin's preposterous political image as a way to highlight the insincerity of her temperment.

    I don't believe Palin would say anything like Joe Biden said, personally, but not because she may or may not be "racist".

    I don't think Palin's character is very high. And whatever her personal feelings are, she would never say what she might really feel if it got her out of favor with the people who bankroll her narratives.

    I may have conveyed that I think of Palin as a racist in my earlier posts, and I did not want to do that.

    All the fuss is the black man's fault;)....
    Guilty as charged....:grin:

    Shut up. (some of you)

    It's as simple as a reference to "White Man Can't Jump"...the classic with Woody and Wesley.

    :rolleyes:

    Are you Sarah Palin's friend, neighbor, or contemporary? Then how can you say she has poor character? One cannot base a person's character on media portrayal; it is inherently unfair. I personally would not base someone's character until I meet them face-to-face.

    Agreed!

    Signed,

    Adolf Hi........

    Who am I kidding? You, like everyone else judge people all the time you never met! You don't have an opinion of Adolf Hitler's character? What about Osama Bin Laden? Ted Bundy?

    Use your tiny head and think.... just once....

    Funny.

    But I work for Al Sharpton...
    ...or at least I sound like I do.

    Tell you what...

    ...you get these people whom I don't know personally to stop hiding their prejudices behind some reverse-victimization dialogue...

    ...and I'll teach you the secret handshake we have to learn at the "WhatWouldAlSharptonSay" meeting next month...;)

    Quitter with a big mouth, who brags about not trying and complains about gotcha questions and sexism.
