I thought my fellow Freepers might enjoy seeing MoveOn's desperation in print!
The liberal fear of a successful, traditional, ATTRACTIVE, woman is so obvious in these attacks. You can almost see them foaming at the mouth when you read this type of trash. I love it.
I am really impressed with how thoroughly they reasearched this e-mai, complet with footnotes and attributions. I mean who can argue with Wikepedia, Huffington Post, Sierra Club, et. al./s
At least they didn’t use without attribution, unlike their choice for #2 on the ticket.
Every single 'man on the street' quote is from a woman. One of them even mentions the infamous 3AM phone. The whole thing reads like a laundry list of telegraphed panic lines.
It's like what the prettyboy yells before being beat up. "Not in the face, not in the face!"
I got this e-mail, too, from an older lady who is an Episcopalian, sings in her choir, and is married to a university professor. The thing that I don’t understand is when your sort of tried-and-true older Country Club Dems like her began to hang out with the radical nutbags of MoveOn.
All the “Grandmothers for Peace” in my town are prim and proper upper middle class ladies like the one who sent me this e-mail, and they’re all involved with MoveOn and even wear MoveOn t-shirts when they go out to wave their signs and call Bush a murderer. Very strange.
Notice how all of the “Alaskans” they quote are females? Probably sweaty, bitter, feninazis is my guess.
The first thing is about evolution vs. creationism. Many people think evolution is done deal. The second one is about climate change is not man-made. As with evolution, there are too many people who have accepted this also as done deal. They will portray her as anti-science woman that is dangerous for American kids, and McCain campaign would be better off if they prepare to respond on these attack. The should ignore the stupid ones, like question about her kid or others.
As for the trooper issue, the McCain campaign has to frame it as a cover-up issue on the part of the superior cops. The guy, after all, only got 5-day disciplinary sanction when as a public safety officer he used the teaser on 10-yr old boy, shoot the caribou, and a handful of other allegations.
...and any valid reason to not support her is 10x reason to not support Obama.
1.5 years as Governor? vs. less time as mere Congressman?
No foreign policy experience? vs. no foreign policy experience?
Anti-abortion? vs. “that’s above my pay grade”?
Holds differing environmental views? vs. lives in environment-crushing Chicago?
They’re going to find that any complaint against her - running as mere VP - sticks a lot more to their front-runner.
Is this true? I am a strong supporter of President Bush, but if this is true, I respect her for it. It shows she will take action to stand up for what's right rather than just talk, talk, talk.
I agree with one thing in Moveon's email. The American people do need to know that Palin is a Pro-Life Christian who defends the teaching of creationism, stands up against the global warming myth and for energy independence for our country.
Go Sarah!
I too was struck by the obvious bias of the sources they selected and the absurdity of the “man-on-the-street quotes they supplied. If this is the best they can do, it is clear they know they have lost already!
Please, keep bringing it up! Stupid people.
I suspect these people have some 'guilt' about their 'privilege' lives. They also want to be consideed 'relevant', progressive, and 'young' by alligning themselves with those kids.
who until recently was mayor of a town of 9,000 people

And how does that compare to stapling posters on light posts and paying out “walking around money” to get out the vote?
“I agree with one thing in Moveon’s email. The American people do need to know that Palin is a Pro-Life Christian who defends the teaching of creationism, stands up against the global warming myth and for energy independence for our country.
Go Sarah!”
Could not have said it better myself!
Palin has nearly twice as many years in elecctive office as Obama. She was solving problems of road building, municipal utilities, enviro-friendly sewage disposal while Obama was voting “present” in the Illinois Senate.
Palin was in Iraq to see the country up close before Obama got there and she was at the bedside of wounded G.I.s in Germany while Obama only worked out at the gym.
Palin has negotiated internationl natural gas contracts for Alaska while Obama never called a meeting of his Senate Subcommittee on Europe before running for Pres.
A list of her accomplishments is a 1000 times longer than Obama.
Sarah Palin has more credentials to be President of the U.S. than the Democratic front runner.
To tell the truth, outside of the spirit in which it was given, MoveOn is amazingly accurate in its description of SP.
They just don’t like it. We do.
BTW, my son is a HS teacher and a salt water fishing guide in Alaska...he’s ecstatic about the choice. So are my granddaughters, who will be voting this year for the first time, and are young Sarahs in their own right. Their bb team won the small school championship in AK two years ago, and they crew on their dad’s boat, hike and hunt.
Your granddaughters, and young kids like them, give us hope for the future generations!
This is good. The wording here is almost identical to the initial Obama campaign statement that their candidate had to go out and explain by saying it was a "hair trigger" response. With moveon parroting the campaign... it ain't going away.
Besides, Sarah Palin is a hunter, shooter, and life member of the NRA. I'm sure she knows more obout "hair triggers" than Obamalamadingdong. He dosen't even know which end of a gun the arugla comes out of.
But now they know Conservatives love Palin and with the PUMAS staying home or even voting MeCain, their little pea-brains are exploding!
And I'm loving it!
