Comments for AP: Attacks, Praise Stretch Truth At GOP Convention »

Posted By TimALoftis 1 year, 2 months ago in News

ST. PAUL, Minn. — Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and her Republican supporters held back little Wednesday as they issued dismissive attacks on Barack Obama and flattering praise on her credentials to be vice president. In some cases, the reproach and the praise stretched the truth.

    That Tim...always trying to be nice.

    Giuliani blaming "liberals" for the disastrous failures and Conservative political corruption ruining our country when REPUBLICANS have controlled all three branches of American government for more than half a decade, is a GOD*AMNED LIE BY GIULIANI AND EVERYBODY KNOWS IT.

    So is the REST of the bullcrap spewed out against Obama and Biden at their little "civic fest," as the Neocons ironically named it....

      Really, I would like for them to talk about how strong the dollar is in the market. Palin has such a command for the spoken word and folkcy way for communicating, she needed to explain how Obama single handedly overstepped 'W' to devalue the dollar.

            Is that like the American people or the whole world that got taken by 'W's inept Executive Branch management of the People's business, money now parted by a mis-guided X 2 vote? I guess with the fervor for McCain and his Attack Dog, there are some who don't think a global financial melt down is enough, so make that a pending mis-guided X 3 vote. Then we possibly have Palin, as VP emerging from the smoking hole that once was the number one economy, as the logical GOP front runner for President in 2012.

            The fools (middle and working class) will have long since been parted from their money.

            Republicans, you really have some soul searching to do to find your way back to reality or 'balanced' service to the nation.

            When you have no agenda, you attack the other candidates. Palin is reading all this stuff and spouting off like it is her idea. She had no idea about any of these issues before she was prepped in the 3 days prior to speech. She is a pit bull, attacking for no reason but to attack. God forbid she gets any more power than she has.

              There goes that liberal media again; Huffington is UnAmerican. They are just trying to embarrass Sarah Plain with their lies.

              We need her. We need her to be President, not just Vice-President.

              We need her to stand-up for family values; stand against the purveyors of filth and birth-control (I call it murder). Stop the sodomites and the baby killers. Fight the heathens and lead a crusade in the name of the Lord.
