We hate to pile on, but we've been on the roll much of this week, and haven't had time to post this until today. But it's worth noting it here, if only for the historical record.

    Another example of blatant hypocrisy. It's not whining when a conservative politician does it. It's only whining when a Democrat politician does it.

      the politically correct jovial fails to realize that the blatant hypocrisy is his and the rest of the libs on Propeller. There is a big difference in attacking Palin for her stances on issues but when you begin to attack her special needs baby with retard jokes that crosses the line of COMMON HUMAN DECENCY. One could only imagine the outrage and uproar if conservative attacked Obama's children. The big corageous macho liberals cower in fear over a little girl from Alaska. Tragic and telling at the same time.

        retard joke...as in one, from one person.

        don't paint us all with the same stripe.

        ...and we're hardly cowering in fear. i think our overwhelming emotion is amusement.

          so it's ok then....because it came from a liberal......how about letterman and his ****ty airlline stewardess jokes......that's ok also because it came from a liberal. All he did was belittle and marginalize career women who work extremely hard. A sexist and inappropriate remark if there ever was one. not too surpriising coming from him. where is the outrage from the great liberal defenders of feminissm. I don't have to do anything you do a good enough job of painting yourselves with the same brush brush.........a bunch of cowards and bullies all of you, you cower in fear over a little girl from Alaska......btw the way jovii I've got news for you my opinion does matter and the proff of it is your comment. typical liberal response, enough said, debate closed and all the other crap Al Gore, Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid feed their mindless hordes of little think as we say you must lemmings. The only reason you continue to attack Palin now is to try to deflect the attention away from Obama, his administration, and his abhorent failing policies

            Then refute the fact that she's a hypocrite. Talk is cheap. Show me some proof.

                Compare that to the daily lies posted on this site for several weeks after she was announced. 1 to 3 stories that were lies and liberals enjoyed them and still once in a wile repeat them even though they were lies. There were several other stories ranting more truthful things about her every day for months and many time a week up until the present.

            Can you refute the fact that she made those statements? The video makes it clear. Sarah Palin is a Hypocrite! Your opinion is meaningless.

              Lets look at your statements. You are one who ranted long and hard about the Bush deficit. I was upset and agreed with that. Obama is this year having a bigger deficit than the total Bush deficit but you stand silent about the hocking this country into a debt that our great great grandchildren will have to try and pay off. Who is what?? Don't start accusing unless you are pure as the driven snow

              Were you upset when Limbaugh made comments about Chelsea Clinton or made comments about how Hillary looked? If you can demonstrate that you have called out transgressions from both sides, then fine. If not, then you're barking as a partisan.

              If Palin can't handle a hard-hitting, tough as nails, unrelenting, bulldog of a interviewer as Katie Couric, then she has no place in the White House. If that was good enough for Alaska, then fine. That is the choice of Alaskans.

                There is a liberal lie. I saw that show. Limbaugh NEVER NEVER made any bad comments about Chelsea. A wrong picture was put up when he made mention about her doing something. The audience reacted and he turned around and told the crew to put up the correct picture and apologized for the mistake. He then made a prophecy that you just proved him right about. He said that liberals would say he did it on purpose. You just proved Limbaugh a true prophet with your baseless accusation.

                Hillary is a politician and you forget the rants that liberals made about Palins clothes until the RNC bought millionaire style clothes for her and then you ranted about that. No matter what Palin is wrong. Wear the clothes she can afford and you rant and when she used the good clothes you rant.

                  Yeah, it was a complete mistake.

                  Order of events.
                  Put up picture of Socks, White House cat
                  Ask Where is the White House dog?
                  Put up pic of Chelsea Clinton.

                  And you think it was a mistake? What evidence do you have? What was the correct picture?

                pc - Typical neocon maneuver.

                In the mountain of legitimate criticism and deserving scorn against Palin, you pick one tiny misstep of inappropriate mentioning of her child w/ Down's Syndrome. Then you magnify it to characterize the entire body of criticism as directed against this child.

                We have all moved past the issue of her Down's baby. You have not. Do you not see that you yourself are continuing to hold up Palin's baby in front of the crowds to draw attention to it? You are the one that is now using her baby as a tool.

                STOP IT! Inasmuch as you say you abhor liberals making jokes about Palin's baby, YOU also have to stop using her baby as cannon fodder to fire against the liberals.

                Why don't you try addressing the mountain of issues, criticisms, divisive language, ignorant comments, idiotic decisions raised by and directed against Palin

              Clinton was a serious candidate, has been a hard-nosed candidate and politician, and she was put through the wringer a hell of a lot more than Palin, who is a ditz, was tested. But, when the chips were down for Palin, wasn't it wonderful how she "plowed through". Sarah Palin, "I quit!" Nice going, Sarah. Serious candidates only for political office.

                FTA:

                Palin seems to have had a change of heart since her video-taped appearance early last year criticizing Clinton for not sucking it up in the face of "fair or unfair" media scrutiny, since she is now "bring[ing] that attention to herself on that level" by "whin[ing] about that excess criticism, or maybe a sharper microscope put on her" by media, and even local bloggers, who she has now threatened with defamation lawsuits in a statement issued by her private attorney on the Fourth of July

                  Palin has not been subject to criticism, she has been the target of raw hate that went way beyond what would be leveled at a democrat. Call it what is is you lying sacks of s**t!

                      "she has been the target of raw hate that went way beyond what would be leveled at a democrat."

                      Really? Can you prove that what she "went through" was far beyond what Hillary Clinton was put through?

                      Hm, let's see...Clinton's hair was made fun of, along with her face, her body, her clothes, her voice, her name, her husband, and of course, her daughter. And none of that had to do with her policies...yet it didn't stop conservatives from slamming every single thing about her appearance.

                      So what exactly was poor Sarah put through that was so much worse? Do tell, please...don't keep the proof all to yourself. 8)

                      You don't recall that infamous question put to McCain on the campaign trail, "what are you going to do to stop that Bi***"?! McCain never said that word was inappropriate to refer to Hillary, he just answered.

                      Talk about raw hate, Palin had it easy compared to Hillary.

                        chip -

                        "...she has been the target of raw hate..."

                        she has made herself a target; might as well have painted a bullseye on her own arse, of quite reasonable criticism, excepting any attacks on her family. i believe all politicians deserve a private family life.

                        but palin is a hypocritical, sensation-seeking idiot with no concept of policy or democratic procedures --- she's proved it over and over out of her own mouth.

                        if she doesn't want to be a target, she could duck.

                            Palin didn't endure anywhere near what you jackasses put Hilary through.You wouldn't know that because you've only been on Propeller a couple of weeks, right? Now who's the lying sack of ****, you frigging sock puppet? Crawl back under your rock.

                            Seems to me, Palin could have used a few lessons from Hillary about plowing through that fair or unfair media coverage. Yeah, Hillary has complained about her own coverage on occasion, but she never quit.

                              Palin is simply a loser. Always was. Always will be. Only the brainwashed cons thought she was just swell because of her beliefs on their church's talking points.

                              I don't know how Palin finally figured it out, but she was NEVER going to be a national candidate again and probably was going to get impeached in Alaska. So like a good little 'trooper' that you idiots think she is, she took the money and ran. Now THAT is a really admirable trait wouldn't you say? NOT!

                                I certainly don't have anything against Sarah Palin.

                                She was just in over her head.

                                She made a mistake accepting the nomination.

                                The only thing I can imagine that caused her to accept it was that she probably knew McCain wouldn't win anyway.

                                . . .

                                She is just a naive person. Anyone who thinks she would have been an effective president has no real clue.

                                    I actually think that she saw it as some sort of *sign*.

                                    Well, in all fairness, she probably forgot someone told her to say that.

                                      Fellow Americans remember the euphoria we felt when the the Bush cabal left the whitehouse? Remember the sound spanking that mcCain and Palin got in the election? I remember and as a tribute I give you the following video. Enjoy and have a nice weekend. [8 )

                                      Thanks jov.

                                      I wonder how much coverage this misplaced presidential wannabe should be receiving at hall.
