Palin supports McCain '100 percent' [Palin pushes back at TMZ 'disprespect' meme]
Politico ^ | Dec. 16, 2009 | Mike Allen

Posted on 12/16/2009 4:38:39 PM PST by Al B.

Declaring that she “was honored and proud to run with him,” former Alaska governor Sarah Palin pushed back hard Wednesday against a report that she had disrespected Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) by blacking out his name on a sun visor she wore on vacation.

The website TMZ accused Palin of “a frontal attack on Sen. John McCain” during a Hawaii vacation this week: “Sarah chose to wear a visor from her campaign -- a visor that was emblazoned with the former presidential candidate's name ... that is, until Palin redacted McCain's name with a black marker.”

But Palin said in a statement to POLITICO that she was just trying to “be incognito” -- to go unrecognized and shield her children and husband, Todd, from paparazzi.

The hotel where she was staying had to chase away five photographers, a friend said.

Palin said in the statement to POLITICO: “I am so sorry if people took this silly incident the wrong way. I adore John McCain, support him 100 percent and will do everything I can to support his reelection. As everyone knows, I was honored and proud to run with him. And Todd and I were with him in D.C. just a week ago. So much for trying to be incognito."

The Palins were taking a break from a three-and-a-half-week book tour for her million-copy-selling memoir, “Going Rogue: An American Life.” Palin has signed more than 59,000 books -- an average of 1,750 per stop -- and has traveled more than 19,000 miles by plane and bus. She has spent 115 hours -- or 4.8 days -- signing books in 33 cities in 25 states. Her stops have included five military bases.

Just goes to show that no one, not even Sarah Palin, is perfect.

. no....you are mistaken....Sarah is perfect.

Geez the damn press can’t leave her alone for one damn second. She will always feel a sense of loyalty to John McCain. I don’t know why, he didn’t allow her to be herself and he surrounded her with buffoons who trashed her non stop

Because he's an idiot. She is not. She shows class in all that she does. McCain didn't get on board until he saw how powerful she was. So there you have it.

The Italian government does not shield organized crime families from prosecution. They hate them, and the mafia is far more brutal to government there than it would ever dare to be here. They murder judges in Italy. The government of Afghanistan embraced Osama Bin Laden and shielded him. Dealing with rogue states, without a declaration of war, goes back to Thomas Jefferson. If there must be a name, that doctrine should be named after the first one of the founding fathers to use it.

Compiling a personal "hit list" of Freepers, all of whom have been here years longer than the month old n00b who made the list, and then acting like a high-and-mighty uber-conservative, is a good way to draw the wrath of the mods.

Plus, the Mods have access to private, personal registration info, which may have shown that said n00b was a retread who had been zotted in the past.

Or maybe the Mod was just having a bad day! ;^)

Thank you for not joining the mob.

I’m not against Palin, either. I just want her on the record on the issues, not on the ticket because of flag-burning, can’t-use-a-supermarket-scanner type crap that really has no impact on the U.S. and her citizens.

Why is it that even questioning whether this woman really believes what so many are projecting upon her is met with such vicious response? Is she already anointed to be the RNC’s version of Obama for the GOP?

Somebody wake me when she starts stumping for an amendment abolishing Kelo-type takings, or returning the Commerce Clause to apply only to real live interstate commerce...not extenuated, imaginary impacts on it, or drive-by birthing of steaming fresh “citizens” along our southern borders.
