Michael Yglesias did this when Huckabee went to Israel to show support and stand in solidarity with Israel in the face of pressure from Obama. Now this gang of leftists Israel-haters are doing the same thing to Palin.

They won’t submit to Democrats, the media or Beltway GOP capitulationists. They won’t “rebrand.” They won’t sit down. They won’t shut up. Just last weekend, Democratic Rep. Jim Moran attacked the GOP candidates for governor and attorney general in Virginia as the “Taliban ticket.” New York Times columnist Frank Rich decried the right’s “Jacobins” and “Stalinists” who he said joined a “putsch” by supporting Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman instead of ACORN-embracing, Big Laborpromoting, pro-abortion,...

The opponent can make a costly mistake that opens the door, a key play can give your team the edge, or you may simply catch a lucky break that changes the course of the game.

This onslaught was perpetrated by the collective left in this country over his attempt to partner with a group seeking to buy the St. Louis Rams, an NFL franchise. These attacks have been fueled and fired by two race-card playing charlatans and apostate Christian leaders of the Left, Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton (see Matt. 7:16, 21-23; 12:33; 2 Tim. 3:1-6).
