Why the FUCK is it OK to question Michelle Obama's patriotism but not Sarah Palin's husband's? |
|
Michelle just said she was proud of America, this idiot joined a party that believed in seceding from the union.
We need to beat this shit to death, why is it OK to have fears about Michelle Obama, but not have fears about Sarah Palin's husband?

5. Why is it OK to harangue Obama for not wearing a flag pin and |
|
then nominate a VP that was a member of a secessionist party?

25. Did anyone see Donna Brazile and her "flag pin"? |
|
It was actually shaped like a U.S. map with the stars and stripes except that it had a circle of blue LED lights flashing on it in the center... Almost as if to say "See me world? I'm a flag pin!" :rofl:

They need the votes of The South to deliver the deal on Americans sold to China.

35. BINGO. This fact is getting lost in all the discussion. |

Even IF (and I'm not convinced) Sarah is not a member of that Secessionist Party, Her husband has been and HE HAS BEEN SITTING IN MEETINGS & ACTIONG LIKE A CO-GOVERNOR!!!

33. I watched The View today |
|
and Elizabeth was spouting her ridiculous "Why does it have to be the END of a teenager's life...why can't it be the BEGINNING of another???" and Joy said "Get real. Do you really think that the GOP would be acting all warm and fuzzy about this if it were two black teenagers that were having a baby and going to get married? I don't think so."

37. Yeah, we all know the hypocrisy and double-standard is blatant and heinous |
|
...but check it out: even when we do try to hold their feet to the fire they just bluster, deny, elide, avoid or downright LIE. Look what happened when Campbell Brown tried to get a straight answer from Tucker Bounds re Palin's national guard decisions. She wouldn't give up, and eventually Bounds told her she was "belittling" the gov's accomplishments. Then the McCain campaign canceled an interview, citing CNN's "tactics".
This is how they play the game. We keep thinking that if the truth were right in front of them we could make them accountable for their actions. But time and time again they've proven that truth means nothing to them--they have no integrity.
Don't forget what Rove said to Ron Susskind: "You live in the reality-based community. We make our own reality."

39. Because she's a Democrat - and he is NOW a Republican, formerly a AIP |
|
I was out doing errands and briefly put on Rush Limbaugh to hear what the creep had to say. He was speaking of Leiberman's putting country over party and then went into how Democrats never did that and had no patriotism. He demanded people call on anything a Democrat ever did that was patriotic. (I guess he doesn't think the sacrifice Max Cleland made for his country counts - I know they said Kerry was injured enough in 2004. Yet they weren't there period.)
