Wanna throw mud Sarah? Remember the Keating 5?

Seems Sarah Palin wants to toss mud and wants us to remember that Barack Obama once had a very causal relationship with 60's radical Bill Ayers, and she is now saying Obama is "palling around with terrorists

Palin needed to remember some of us remember a little thing call the "Keating 5".

Get ready for mud up to your knees Sarah

When you have nothing positive to say about yourself the only way to make yourself look better is to make the other guy look worse... It's the Karl Rove way.

And what did it get us? Eight years of "Dubyah".

I, for one, have had enough. Let them sling the mud because there's a lot of dirt on their side too.

Joe Six-Pack is going to vote for the ta-tas. That's fine if you're running for Miss Alaska. But when you're running to be second-in-command within a heartbeat of having the nuclear codes I want some brains, common sense, and good judgement... regardless of the "package".

This is so typical of the GOP.

Palin said in a thinly-veiled threat to Obama tha it was "time to take off the gloves." I really think she's going to live to regret those words.
She claimed Obama "bad-mouthed" the U.S., while she thinks we are an exceptional country and a force for good in the world.(Figures the GOP would use the word "force") Like everything is just honkey-dorey here in the good ol U.S. of A. I think there is absolutely nothing wrong with admitting to leaders of other countries that we have problems too. Hell, we can't even straighten out our healthcare issues, or even issues of equal rights or medical marijuana.
I think Palin's lived "next to Canada" for so long, she's mixing them up with us.

I have to wonder why McCain is sending out his 'girl' to do his dirty work.

My grandmother used to have a saying, it went something like:

"Don't cut off your nose to spite your face"

Just think about that when you're blindly ignoring the questions about Obama because you hate republicans. And I agree there is a lot of dirt on both sides to be tossed about, such as Palin and her "Troopergate"

Actually, I, at least, have not been ignoring questions about Senator Obama because I hate Repuglicans. To use another 'folksy' idiosim, "People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones". Palin's Troopergate problems predate the VP run, AND was an invesigation begun by, I might add, REPUBLICANS!

Now, while the Reverend Jeremiah Wright does bother me some, I've read a lot from former members of his congregation that the man of today, in fact, the man of the last eight years, is not the man that they knew over a decade ago. Wright has become somewhat radicalized and hardened over the last eight years. For someone who has to live and work in the worst areas of a city, as I did for half that time, it is easy to become hardened and even radicalized by the events that we see.

William Ayers is a man who long ago reputiated the violence of the Weather Underground. While he and Obama have crossed paths, neither of them are in anyway friends. While Ayers was a member of the Weather Underground, he was charged with a crime, but those charges were later dropped due to the misconduct of the prosecutor involved. Thus, legally, Ayers is an innocent man who ran with a bad crowd. Knowing someone does not make you have the same political views. After all, I met Connie Mac about two decades ago and I certainly am not a Fiscal Republican.

And here is the last thing for you to consider. I was going to vote for McCain. I voted for the man in 2000. I honestly believed he would have been a good President. His behavior over these last few months lost him my vote and my respect. Believe it or not, that includes nominating Sarah Palin. His decision to wage a political campaign full of hatred, vitriol, and sleeze has done him in. And, I came to those conclusions based upon my own views, and not the media's or the Obama Campaign's. I weighed Obama and do not feel totally comfortable with him, but I feel far, far more uncomfortable with Senator McCain.

I watched with interest the very very long primary campaign. I watched as both Hillary and Obama constantly attacked each other and the republicans. There was no response from McCain or the other republican candidates.
I've watched for these two long years as the democrats have constantly and relentlessly attacked their opponents, many times with bald open faced lies.
I watched as Obama pulled the old democrat fear tactic with our seniors by telling them if the republicans get elected then their social security benefits will be cut.
I watched attack ad after attack ad and when finally McCain made a response by pointing out Obama's voting record,... OBAMA screamed about all those republican negative attack ads,.. and then continued his relentless blaming everything in the world on Bush and McCain.
Whenever someone asked about Obama's shady connections (not just Ayers), his response was we don't need to talk about that, that is over and not important. And it was just let go,..
Then when McCain announced Palin as his VP running mate, the attacks on her went full force even "before" her speech at the convention.
So yes, I agree people in glass houses shouldn't through rocks, but that doesn't seem to bother Obama and company.
Now I do have one question about "Troopergate". Everyone knows there is a lot of concern about police not having strict guidelines on the use of TASERS. Mostly because the videos of people being TASERed looks so horrible and painful. The libs and dems are notorious about screaming for action against police who use a TASER on someone that could have been beaten into submission by other means (clubs, fist).
Now the officer in question in Troopergate admits to having used his TASER on his ex-wifes 10 year old boy, not for actual police work but for personal reasons. Not only should he have been fired for misusing his position, but shouldn't he have been arrested for child abuse too? My only gripe with Palin on that case is she didn't use everything in her power to have that piece of scum put away for using a TASER on a 10 year old boy.
You no longer like McCain because of his TV ads pointing out questions about Obama. Did it occur maybe McCain is just tired of being constantly attacked by Obama and company? Just go back to the beginning of who has been firing off negative attack ads for the last two years,.. it won't be McCain. But now he has his bulldog, so Obama is fuming about receiving the same he has been giving,
Just something to think about,.. Remember we have to do this all over again in 4 years, or make that 2 years,.. Doesn't that suck?
