I don't know anything about the Georgia gubernatorial race. Did Palin get the call right or did she goof?

I think either she goofed or somebody on her staff goofed. She should have endorsed Eric Johnson (true conservative).

Maybe Sarah needs to get more selective in her endorsements and with more due diligence.

LOL. Handel is not pro-abortion. She simply didn't get the pro-life endorsement from the state poohbahs.

Governor Palin would never endorse a pro-abortionist.

That headline that calls Handel “Pro-Choice” was written by CHRISTIAN News wire?

How much more dishonest can you get that calling an overtly prolife woman prochoice?

Yeah; they may be Pro-Life, like many other Blacks, but I’d bet you a dollar to a donut they EVERY ONE vote for B. Hussein Obama.

Black Preachers & church members claim to be pro-life and anti-Same Sex Unions, but they vote Democrat 90 percent. Whassup wit dat?

I have no dog in this fight. I know nothing about Karen Handel.

But I do know Dr. Alveda King is bona fide.

Until I see she is wrong, I believe her.

If she supports a pro-abort politician then she made the wrong call. Whether she goofed or not is open to question.

"Sarah Palin’s endorsement of Planned Parenthood’s benefactor, candidate Karen Handel,” said Dr. Alveda King, "

She presided over the funding of Planned Parenthood.

Black pro-life leaders in Georgia today strongly opposed Governor Palin’s endorsement of gubernatorial candidate Karen Handel.

What a crock of male bovine manure!

Translation: Democrats for former Democratic Governor Roy Barnes strongly opposed Governor Palin’s endorsement of the leading Republican gubernatorial runoff candidate Karen Handel.

Palin is a Libertarian while governing, but a Social Conservative with her own life

Sarah made another poor choice in whom she endorsed. It’s unfortunate that, in pursuing her “Mama Grizzly” strategy she is compromising some Conservative principles that I consider non-negotiable.

That isn’t to say that I’m writing Sarah off — only that her strategy is fatally flawed. Ans I’ll criticize her when she’s wrong. 90+% of her endorsements have been dead on RIGHT — as in CONSERVATIVE. But if it comes down to choosing a candidate based on ovaries vs. principles — I’ll take principles, thank you.

Handel is in favor of gay rights. She is a RINO. She does not have my support. Dean is far from perfect, but he is definitely the better candidate.

Ands another thing, with Palin making these kind of asinine decisions, it makes me question whether she can make the right decisions as POTUS??? She is quickly losing any favor she has had with me.

So are these people democrats or republicans? This is just a political attack. Palin’s enemies are just finding new ways of criticising her - Blacks that are Pro-Choice? Yep, maybe, but Democrats and Obama first, always, for sure.

A black group criticises Palin, and we swallow it hook, line and sinker? Sheesh.

All it tells us is who the Obama$$ & the WH fear.

Alveda King is on the board of Georgia Right to Life.

According to Erick Erickson at RedState...

"But Georgia Right to life is attacking Karen Handel and supporting Nathan Deal. Deal explicitly voted to fund abortions and explicitly voted to fund embryonic stem cell research."

Does Georgia Right to Life Now Support Embryonic Stem Cell Research?

This group also seem to have supported Huckabee in 2008, including Dean Nelson, from the Politically Active Christians, who is quoted in the above article.

Huckabee Courts Black Vote

Black Pro-Life Advocates Oppose Palin Endorsement of Pro-Choice Karen Handel

I don't know Handel. But I do know Dr. Alveda King. And I trust and respect her.
