11. Agreed. But there has been very little real discussion going on here

It's been a day and a half Jerry Springer episode, for the most part.

5. Are you still posting for Palin; thanks for the advice but who the hell is bashing her anyway, not

saying anything more than usual against someone who is so extreme to the right.

6. She Should Have Disclosed Kid When

introducing her picture perfect family to America.

"and this is our daughter Bristol who is expecting a child and will soon marry her fiancee, and even though she's only 17, we support her decision".

There, was that so hard.

7. If Palin is imploding why are the Big Hitters, Dobson, et al standing

by her.

We might be wise to follow Obama's lead. He really made me
proud this afternoon.

10. Look, I've steered clear of engaging in the stupid gossip shit

but I don't mind the MSM covering Bristol Palin's pregnancy. In fact, I like it. And the reason that Dobson et al are supporting McCain/Palin is because Palin is a fellow fundy nutcase.

13. They'd stand by her if she wiped her ass with the American flag.

It isn't them who matter.

It's the rest of America who now see who she really is.

8. Palin = bad VP choice. Family = not really our business

In any case, this political train wreck seems to be proceeding pretty well under its own momentum. I don't care too much about the pregnant daughter, the RW are already wasting their own energy on it.

9. Hill did not get the nom.

So much for sympathy.

Edwards lost a child and had a wife fighting cancer. If sympathy equaled votes he would be our nom right now and.....well...never mind....

17 year old out of wedlock mother as an example for their own daughters. :eyes:

15. You have to kind of like the person to start with

in order to feel sympathy for them. The more people find out about this loon, the worse it's going to get.

19. I don't care what Rethugs think about, I am here to destroy their candidates one by one...

I've been talking to all my friends and family. Not one person when asked if they would be offended if a lot of questions were asked about Palin including personal questions. NOT ONE, out of like 20, has said Democrats should not. Regular people WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT PALIN. THEY WANT TO KNOW EVERYTHING. Only Republicans don't want to hear it, and fuck that, they're gonna hear it whether they like it or not.

My 2 cents.

20. If you mean Palin's family and family life, I agree. If you mean Palin's record

her statements and her views - it would be crazy, irresponsible, immoral and unpatriotic NOT to get the truth out NOW!!

If the REAL record of Sarah Palin gets out to the public - McCain/Palin will implode.

NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING has damaged the Democratic Party more than the unwillingness to go the offensive.

22. If you mean Palin's family and family life, I agree. If you mean Palin's record

Palin's statements, Palin's political associations, it would be dangerously irresponsible, unpatriotic and immoral - not to get the FACTS out as fast as possible.

If the public learns about Sara Palin's record, McCain/Palin will implode WITHIN DAYS!!

NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING has damaged the Democratic Party more than the unwillingness to go on the offensive. This is the attitude that sunk the Democratic Party and this same defeatism threatens it to this day.

23. Thank you for your concern. She touts her being mother of 5 as evidence

of her superior executive skills. When the truth comes out about her LACK of good parenting which resulted in a teen pregnancy, that's fair game.

I don't care what the girl's name is, or the fact that she's pregnant per se. That's just a tragedy to me that she is forced to bear a child she is completely unprepared for.

Palin's poor family management skills are at issue.

25. Senator Clinton Did Not Get A Sympathy Vote

She just won the vote fair and square. Please stop posting anti-Clinton remarks. Now we are all Democrats for Obama.
