    I do not hate Obama. But I am largely opposed to his agenda. Just because you guys hate her, it does not follow that Barack Obama's opponents hate him as well. Being opposed to someone's agenda is not the same thing as hating them. However, you guys have made it abundantly clear that you hate Sarah Palin, time and time and time again. Personally, I go out of my way to praise Obama every chance I get. I find it unfortunate that he does not provide me more opportunities to do so.

    If Obama had lost the last election, he would have been quickly forgotten about by his opponents on the right, much like John Kerry. Obama does not inspire any real passion in his opponents, unlike Sarah Palin.

    Who is this woman that you guys are clearly so obsessed with? She is a former one-term Governor of Alaska who was nominated as McCain's Republican VP candidate in what amounted to a 'Hail Mary' pass in a year when it was just plainly the Democrats turn to win. Clearly, you people do protest too much.

    You can say what you want to, but you guys hate her because you are afraid of her. You have broadcast that loud and clear for all to see, with no intermediary explanations being required. But continue on with your loud and boisterous denials if that makes you feel any better about this. Everyone will hear your howls and wailings about Sarah Palin, and interpret all of that in whatever way seems right to them. By all means, keep it up.

    This post is addressed to the individual posting as Clutchfans.net user "MojoMan".

    There is an open and obvious factual error in this sentence. Do you know what it is? I do.

    Whether she is right or wrong will actually play out in the next few years. We really don't know what is in the bill. I doubt any person who will vote for it has read it. Some form of rationing is inevitable. For those of you who are so excited about the huge cuts in Medicare will one day depend on it. Then, you may not be so excited.

    I'm with you mojo.

    What they are missing in this story is that she is a WINNER.

    Am I right?

    What an American story. You can be a loser and quit your job yet idiots will give you millions of dollars while they simultaneously complain about welfare and socialism.

    It brings a tear to the eye.

    Obama has endorsed the concept himself:

    i do not hate palin. but i am largely opposed to her agenda. just because someone is critical of palin, it does not follow that they hate palin as well.

    again, when people criticize palin its 'hate', but when 'mojoman' criticizes obama it is not 'hate'.

    one would have to actually care in order to take the effort to hate someone, I look at her more as a joke with a reeeeeaaaally bad punch line.
