You are right.

She isn't a liar, she it truth challenged.

How much do we know about ANY of the other candidates kids/family?

They have, rightly, been left alone..

The rest of them have manage to avoid..

1). DWTS
2). A Reality Show
3). Multiple Book tours
4). Public catfights.

It's kind of difficult to stay out of the public spotlight when you crave it so much.

By what right do you judge her motives and by extension her character?

BTW, just saw a rerun of Gov Palin on Hannity. That interview looked more like a campaign speech than an interview. Interesting that she gave props to Newt and T-Paw.

I listened to the first three minutes and said, "She's running."

Must confirm my impression with the legendary Mrs. Whiskers tomorrow if I can talk her into viewing it (loves Palin, hates computers.)

BTW the props to Newt and T-Paw are (just my hunch) a confirmatory non-verbal signal that she will find a place for them inside her administration.

Most likely Newt in the clear-cutting of federal agencies (or, as a pipe-dream, press secretary); T-Paw in the department of paint dessication ("as boring as ...")

Cheers! Cheers!

>>> Our setup here in the free USA is beginning to look more and more like tyranny. Afraid to run for political office because of fear of unreasonable attacks on a family.

Have you never read a history book? Politics has always been a contact sport. Ask Andrew Jackson’s wife Rachel.

But Jackson, Abe Lincoln, Alexander Hamilton etc etc etc didn’t run away to the profitable world of reality TV.

Yet you’re too lazy to list the alleged lies she has told?

Calling someone a liar but not backing it up with valid examples is about as childish as it gets.

I think you’re lost - make a hard left, go down the road to hell and you’ll find a place called “DU” that you may find to your liking.

The media wouldn’t even mention Obama’s EARS, let alone his lack of a paper trail.

That right there has great tagline potential.

“Politics has always been a contact sport.”

Yup, in colonial times the colonists tarred and feathered, or even hung, people they disagreed with politically. King George would have them hung as well (different side). And Stalin had Beria torture and kill his dissenters.

Sometimes here SEIU mobs someone’s house.

Several of them.

Adams
Jefferson
Washington
Hamilton (This is most astonishing read about a founding father)
Founding Brothers
American Sphinx
1776
American Lion (Andrew Jackson.) Lived just down the road (literally) from the Hermitage. (Book was Boring - Too much about the Eaton affair). But cool he fired the entire cabinet.
Adams vs. Jefferson. (My next purchase) - A Brutal election. The crap that was slung.
Layfayette.

Like I said in another thread.. She has my full support until she specifically says, “I am not running”../

I’m with you on that.

The very same rights you have to judge others motives and intentions.

She is talking about the out right lies told about her family. They can say things about Bristol because she has put herselve in the spot light but they have went after Willow, Piper, Trig, and Track.

Track wants to be left along and the others are under age and not a word should be reported about them.

Did you noticed at the Fair that you didn’t see the kids and if asked Gov. Palin gave a short sentence and changed the subject.

I dont think Sarah is afraid of anything.

There is NOTHING the media can o to her that they have not already done, and the public resents it

The Media are going to be the biggest loser in this next race
