You do realize it’s the people you consider the “purists” of the party who have been the most understanding and compassionate to Gov. Palin, don’t you?
It's precisely the ones who are NOT being understanding and compassionate that I'm imitating, so your statement is a non sequitur.
And why the quote marks? When did I use the phrase "purists" and what makes you think you know who I referring to since when I did not call anyone that?
