The country is being taken over by cretans. I truly believe that the majority of the country's citizens are simpletons, and dangerously "red", as we say in Ohio. And they are reproducing much more quickly than their more thoughtful liberal cousins. I'm more afraid now than I was when Bush/Cheney were spewing their pre-digested hateful agenda. Now, the contestants are not only hateful, but horrifyingly stupid Sat, 6 Sep 2008 09:34:35 +0000 http://dev.www.katu.com/news/27894059.html#IDComment5757563 http://dev.www.katu.com/news/27894059.html#IDComment5757553 How can we possibly reward such a backward, whiny, redneck view of the universe, as is embodied in Sarah Palin?

That's what your signing up for. Abortion is birth control. You are controlling birth by not going through with it. If you are adopted,and there's no proof, I can see the apple didn't fall far from the tree. I can read you. Your type has to get in the last word. Tough luck on your mom though. No wonder.

And it's not that common to come over here to get surgery. Many more Americans go there to get medical assistance that they can't get in the states. But it is common for doctors come over here to get quick money in the health business. And you should know that our system has let far more people die, dumped patients and run people into the ground with the outrageous price gouging. And you know it or you won't have tried to move to Canada in the first place. Right?

Let me guess, your heroes are Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Bush, O'Riley.....You hate paying any taxes that help human beings but don't mind paying for a war that kills people and has no end? You say your against abortion because it's murder but cheer if a abortion clinic blows up and kills someone, Hates gays and gay marriage ( because deep down you are?) and basically have contempt for anyone who isn't just like you? Take anyway the Us and Them, Dem and Repubs attitude and your just another malignant narcissist.Oh yeah, your nuts....

She is his "gimmick" pick. All of the sudden it's oK to be a "celebrity" as he put it? We will see how she does in the debate. That hockey mom and lipstick crap isn't going to cut it.

Read it and weep. And talk about venom! Odrama? How mature! The pot cals the kettle black! My check too! But then again I believe in birth control. You believe in creation? Now I know your nuts. You completely fit the profile. So that's a no on the adoption thing?

That's right, their adults so why do you care? But it's OK for a teenager? Please. Maybe Obama believes in Birth Control unlike others. Abortion is legal. If it wasn't how many unwanted crack babies are you willing to adopted? None? Like paying welfare? I bet you don't do anything for all the nonwhite unwed mothers out there.

Dan Quayle, 12/6/89 What will that dipsh** Palin add to history? "Lipstick jokes?" She will die in the debates just like Quayle did when he compared himself to Kennedy. Heh.Heh.

"It's over," Wall Street Journal columnist and former Ronald Reagan speechwriter Peggy Noonan is heard saying off-camera following an interview on MSNBC . Anchor Chuck Todd then asked if Palin, the 44-year-old first-term governor of Alaska, is most qualified for the nomination. "The most qualified? No," Noonan responded. "I think they went for this, excuse me, political bulls*** about narratives. Every time the Republicans do that, because that's not where they live and that's not what they're good at, they blow it." Consultant Mike Murphy added that McCain's decision was "cynical" and "gimmicky." On Monday, Palin -- mom to five -- released a statement confirming that her daughter Bristol, 17, is five-months pregnant Fri, 5 Sep 2008 11:28:04 +0000 http://dev.www.katu.com/news/27894059.html#IDComment5706463 http://dev.www.katu.com/news/27894059.html#IDComment5706453 A conservative commentator and a Republican consultant were caught on tape bashing John McCain 's vice presidential pick , Sarah Palin , who is scheduled to speak at the Republican National Convention Wednesday night.

Speaking about climate change, she said, "I'm not one though who would attribute it to being manmade." __Palin has close ties to Big Oil. Her inauguration was even sponsored by BP. __Palin is extremely anti-choice. She doesn't even support abortion in the case of rape or incest. __Palin opposes comprehensive sex-ed in public schools. She's said she will only support abstinence-only approaches. ( look what it got her own daughter)__As mayor, Palin tried to ban books from the library. Palin asked the library how she might go about banning books because some had inappropriate language in them—shocking the librarian, Mary Ellen Baker. According to Time, "news reports from the time show that Palin had threatened to fire Baker for not giving "full support" to the mayor." __She DID support the Bridge to Nowhere (before she opposed it). Palin claimed that she said "thanks, but no thanks" to the infamous Bridge to Nowhere. But in 2006, Palin supported the project repeatedly, saying that Alaska should take advantage of earmarks "while our congressional delegation is in a strong postion to assist Fri, 5 Sep 2008 08:29:23 +0000 http://dev.www.katu.com/news/27894059.html#IDComment5702283 http://dev.www.katu.com/news/27894059.html#IDComment5700683 Palin recently said that the war in Iraq is "God's task." She's even admitted she hasn't thought about the war much—just last year she was quoted saying, "I've been so focused on state government, I haven't really focused much on the war in Iraq." Palin has actively sought the support of the fringe Alaska Independence Party. Six months ago, Palin told members of the group—who advocate for a vote on secession from the union—to "keep up the good work" and "wished the party luck on what she called its 'inspiring convention.'" Palin wants to teach creationism in public schools. She hasn't made clear whether she thinks evolution is a fact. .
