Well, he is the "leader" of a party that doesn't want his kind in it.


Compare and contrast:

The black man:

Repugs: Steele (dumber than dirt)
Dems: Obama (smart as a whip)


The women:

Repugs: Palin (dumber than dirt)
Dems: Clinton (smart as a whip)

Can you spot the tokens?

6. No, but they've got people talking about it
and even the President has now publicly denied that he's in favor of death panels. They're just flinging BS out there to plant doubt and fear in people's minds and get the news media to talk about their accusations rather than what's actually in the health care plan.

It's like that old story about LBJ when he was running for the Senate. He told his campaign manager to accuse his opponent, a pig farmer, of having intimate relations with his barnyard animals.
"We can't say that," the campaign manager replied. "It's not true."
"Of course it's not true," said Johnson, "but let's make the bastard deny it."

3. Lying is perfectly appropriate for Republicans.
And of course, look who he's talking to...

4. I agree with Maccagirl
It is appropriate; Steele is right. Remember - it's Sarah Palin. What else do you expect?

5. Jumping the shark is perfectly appropriate for the anti-reformists
It looks like Sarah led the GOP over the shark once again.

8. Yep! 'cuz she's got a lot of experience running her own version:
Alaska's first death panel, composed of herself cutting funds to Granma's & Granpa's:

While the state ran a surplus, no less...

Appropriate talk indeed!

In fact, THAT talk should be widely spreading through the so-called 'liberal-media'!!
