Palin had a presser right after an investigation found her guilty of abusing her office when she was governor and she said she was happy that they had CLEARED HER OF ALL CHARGES.

They feel it didn't happen unless they say so. They really believe reality can be dictated.

Baggers are not rational, therefore they don't act for a specific reason except to get what they want, and therefore insult the vast majority of Americans who are rational and have at least most of their memory intact. These baggers are much like very young spoiled children who scream for what they want without regards to whether or not it is fair or justified. Y'know EGO and ID, mostly the latter.
