wrt to the Palin family- lol you’re kidding.
Look. You two are determined to rationalize this woman’s behavior & self portrayal. Go ahead. I’m not trying to stop you, but I don’t agree with you.
It’s probably not that “scandalous” to most people, but that’s part of our problem. We give these people a pass/ cut them some slack/ rationalize their behavior & then get oh-so-butthurt when they’re as ethically challenged in office as they are in their personal lives.
Maybe she can come run for governor in your state(s).
Maybe you should run for high political office and see how many years and how much of your personal time it would take to actually achieve it.
Male, female, democrat, republican .... doesn’t matter.
It takes a hell of a lot of time to cultivate the connections needed to get it done. If you have kids, you’re just not going to have the time with them that others who don’t have those ambitions do.
I don’t care for Davis’ politics one bit, but this is not the item to criticize her on. How about her extreme abortion stance instead?
I’m not kidding. I’m also not determined to rationalize anything about Wendy Davis. The point is not letting our side become focused on this issue when there are real political issues to slam her.
We agree. These things are scandalous or at least character illuminating. But the same can be said for any politician or public figure, right or left or in between. IMO the main problem on our side is we don’t have control of the media as the dem/left does. We don’t have control of education as the dem/left does. We don’t have control of the religious institutions as the dem/left does. We don’t have control of the judicial system as the dem/left does. Major problems.
Chris Christie is my Governor and I voted for him and would do so again. He’s far better than any Governor we’ve had here in the last 30+ years. I’m from PA and thought Casey was ok on social issues but horrendous on fiscal but he was a decent guy (unlike his son, the Senator).
I also voted for Romney in the General because I wasn’t voting for Obama or throwing away my vote by voting 3rd party or not voting at all.
The last thing I want is another Bush in office (or a Clinton) but I would gladly vote for the former over the latter. We aren’t a dynasty based government and I wish we didn’t have political royalty.
Again, I don’t get butthurt by politicians on either side since I don’t worship them. We hire them to do a job and they should do that job. Most of them don’t. But, the left/dems always support their people while we don’t and we lose. And, we have allowed them to take over all our Institutions. This is what we get.
