RSSAP BREAKING NEWS: Sarah Palin is a Racist … AP Decries Palin Comments Against Obama are Racist
You know you are a racist when … you criticize any thing regarding Barack Obama. The MSM that cried wolf … Remember when the media actually cared about investigative journalism rather than running cover for a political candidate?
So now the Obama water carrying MSM is calling Sarah Palin a RACIST! AP says that Sarah Palin’s comments regarding Obama and domestic terrorist Bill Ayers are racist. UNBELIEVABLE. Welcome to the wonderful world of bias, partisan politics journalism in the United States where any one who makes an assertion or comment against Barack “The Chosen One” Obama is branded a racist. How dare Sarah Palin question Obama’s ties to an unrepentant terrorist.
Watch the Sarah Palin video at the Gateway Pundit.
By claiming that Democrat Barack Obama is “palling around with terrorists” and doesn’t see the U.S. like other Americans, vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin targeted key goals for a faltering campaign.
And though she may have scored a political hit each time, her attack was unsubstantiated and carried a racially tinged subtext that John McCain himself may come to regret.
Michelle Malkin, no truer words have been said … “Putting the “Ass” in “Associated Press.”
The liberal media would have everyone believe that there was no relationship what so ever between Obama and Ayers. How could they allow such knowledge to the people, that would be damaging to Obama’s candidacy. However, as Protein Wisdom points out there is plenty of evidence and references Stanley Kurtz and Steve Diamond, two of the only journalists actually interested enough to look into the relationship, Also HERE and HERE.
Stop the ACLU spells out the ridiculousness and absurdity of AP’s assertion. BTW, was this AP article news or an opinion piece? Sarah Palin questions Barack Obama’s close ties with a domestic terrorist, not because of Obama’s race. Palin is questioning his judgment.
Palin’s words avoid repulsing voters with overt racism. But is there another subtext for creating the false image of a black presidential nominee “palling around” with terrorists while assuring a predominantly white audience that he doesn’t see their America?
In a post-Sept. 11 America, terrorists are envisioned as dark-skinned radical Muslims, not the homegrown anarchists of Ayers’ day 40 years ago. With Obama a relative unknown when he began his campaign, the Internet hummed with false e-mails about ties to radical Islam of a foreign-born candidate.
Whether intended or not by the McCain campaign, portraying Obama as “not like us” is another potential appeal to racism. It suggests that the Hawaiian-born Christian is, at heart, un-American.
Most troubling, however, is how allowing racism to creep into the discussion serves McCain’s purpose so well. As the fallout from Wright’s sermons showed earlier this year, forcing Obama to abandon issues to talk about race leads to unresolved arguments about America’s promise to treat all people equally.
A note to the McCain campaign, you best take the gloves off and question Obama about all of his associations and his tax and spend policies … whether you do or not you will still be called racists.

last time i checked bill ayers was white & obama was half white. this whole racist thing was complete nonsense. the aclu & associated press can kiss my white a$$.
can you imagine if obama gets elected? (shutters)… i’m wondering who will be granted direct lines to the president? anyone who disagrees with policy will be targeted & branded a racist!
What?
How can ANY one believe there are racists in our society, when right here at scared monkeys people are attacked and, falsely, accused of being strippers with mongrel children living off welfare by one that PROUDLY states that he’s lived in Alaska for the past 19 years? One can only speculate what part of the lower forty-eight he lived in, before his ‘great escape’ to the last frontier.
Like I said, earlier, ignorant hypocrites!
I suggest that some of you clean your own cages, before you start throwing stones at others. Don’t believe the lies that come from the mouth of McCain who would have you believe that Palin is a ‘maverick’ who took on government corruption. She didn’t do anything to help the people. Her state is still the leader in rapes, and incest per capita. She made sure the bars stayed open 22 hours a day and that the perverse, in mind and heart, had their entertainment.
Besides what is she, really? A democrat, a republican? Not exactly… She’s member of the Alaska Independent Party who doesn’t think ‘America First’, but, rather, ‘Alaska First’. She has so much love for this country that she expresses her support for those who would have their state removed from the union.
One can only guess what her agenda is…
.
Investigate them all! But, please, don’t act like you are a beacon of light trying to save people from the tide of misinformation; while racial hatred is written on these blogs, almost, on a daily basis.

TALK IS CHEAP … CHECK OBAMA’S RECORD !!!
A candidate’s track record, and associations are always a legitimate issue when running for President. Let’s take a look at the qualifications, judgement, and experience of Obama, who is running for President. Obama had 25 years to fulfill the potential he displayed as a rising start at Harvard Law School … and, how did he live up to that potential? … He chose to align himself with anti-American racist, Jeremiah Wright for TWENTY YEARS … along with Ferrahkan, Rezko, Ayers, and others. As a community organizer, he registered thousands of voters in Chicago … then, when he ran for the state legislature, he took away their votes, by disqualifying his opponent (a black woman) on a technicality. As a U.S. Senator, he voted present 160 times … he never called a meeting on the Afghanistan committee he chaired (although he NOW says we must shift all our military from Iraq to Afghanistan). He claimed Foreign Policy experience from a 9 day whirlwind photo op to 6 countries. And, he spent almost half of his tenure neglecting his responsibilities as a U.S. Senator, so he could run for President. Senator McCain served America honorably for 22 years in the military. He proved his love for America, as well as his honor, integrity and character, by refusing early release as a P.O.W., even while being tortured. He served America as a ‘contributing’ U.S. Senator, working across the aisle, for 20 years. If Obama’s Twentyfive year track record shows he lacks judgement, and can’t be trusted, who cares what he says about Health Care and the Economy! What Obama never learned is Character. He simply can’t be trusted … ask Jeremiah Wright, a friend of 20 years, who Obama betrayed for personal ambition … and, you Obama supporters really think he won’t betray you If he gets elected??? If he gets elected, you Obama supporters will be facing a HUGE disillusionment !!!
For crying outloud, give it a rest already, Black America and MSM!!
I know it’s not all blacks, but I’m sick and tired of some blacks crying “RACISM”! I, for one, don’t owe them a damn thing, not an apology, a handout, a free ride, NADA!! I do love Bill Cosby’s no non-sense approach/views to the problems though
When I was in college there was a student election where the non-whites banded together into the “Black-Brown International Coalition.” When the editor of the student newspaper endorsed the other party, the BBIC sought to have him removed for being “racist.” I’m tired of this crap. Let’s put the real racists in their place. Vote McCain – Palin.

Even in kindergarten,
when a child calls another the ‘n’ word,
they are punished and expected to apologize.

foxy:
except when it’s black on black then it turns into a term of endearment. now imagine that !!!
when they stop calling each other that then you can talk.
as of now it is normal vocabulary and free to use as needed.
if you hate this word so bad, you wouldn’t call yourself, your friends, your family, even your own children this name. ta ta
I see the irrational uneducated banshee continues to spew her stupidity and demonstrate her lack of ability to even read. It has been amply shown that everything she has put forward concerning herself is a fraud. That her life has been composed of self inflected wounds I care not. Hopefully her’s is a brief candle with it’s life being a walking shadow for she has been a poor player strutting and fretting her brief moment upon our stage. For she is truly full of sound and furry signifying nothing..JS
Right, Obama can go all over linking McCain to Bush, but noone can question him about any of his friends and who he worked with for years.
Later in 1969, Ayers participated in planting a bomb at a statue dedicated to police casualties in the 1886 Haymarket Riot.[10] The blast broke almost 100 windows and blew pieces of the statue onto the nearby Kennedy Expressway.[11] (The statue was rebuilt and unveiled on May 4, 1970, and blown up again by other Weathermen on October 6, 1970.[12][11] Rebuilding it yet again, the city posted a 24-hour police guard to prevent another blast.[11]) Ayers participated in the Days of Rage riot in Chicago in October 1969, and in December was at the “War Council” meeting in Flint, Michigan.
Ayers participated in the bombings of New York City Police Headquarters in 1970, the United States Capitol building in 1971, and The Pentagon in 1972, as he noted in his 2001 book, Fugitive Days. Because of a water leak caused by the Pentagon bombing, aerial bombardments during the Vietnam War had to be halted for several days.
To say McCain is a racist is a joke.. he and his wife adopted an African American child and raised her.
OBAMA IS NOT BLACK!!!
i wish the left would just get over it already. he was raised by a white mother. i tan darker than that.
obama wants to meet with dictators with no preconditions & befriend terrorists. watch where he’s getting his verbal support from in the next few weeks.
“To say McCain is a racist is a joke.. he and his wife adopted an African American child and raised her.”
I had a joke prepared but not being politically correct I’m afraid that I would tear some thin skin on this thread.
i’ve heard or read every public statement palin’s made in this race and most of mccain’s speeches. i have not heard either of them make a single racist statement or one that could be spun into one. the obamamedia, which is all of msm except fox news channel, is going all out to elect him president, at the cost to their reputations and credibility.

# 6 – Foxy Lady – What do kids in kindergarten calling each other the “N” word have to do with the LEFT and the media spreading their lies have to do with Sarah Palin being falsely accused of being a racist?
Poster #2 says: “How can ANY one believe there are racists in our society”.
So who has denied that they exist in our society … and in other societies as well?
I lived in Japan for eight years … want me to fill you in on some of the prevalent racist stereotypes there? (And the Japanese people gave me better treatment than I have had anywhere, including this country.)
(Further on Japan: My impression was that their harshest judgements were towards other Asians. So much for prevailing simplistic ideas….)
Anyway, the point is, as Red makes clear: criticism of Obama’s associations seems to involve the ‘racist’ card.
Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton must be cheering poster #2 on … the ones who make a career out of (alleged) racism are THEM.
Let’s drop the garbage.
The fact that we are going to have a President named Barack Obama during these extremely anti-Muslim times, just goes to show how terribly the Republican party has done these past years. And just how laughable the gop ticket is. If I were a member of this party, I would be so mad at the McCain Palin ticket. I know I felt this way when we came up with John Kerry. And John Edwards. I really want the dems to win, but I can’t help feeling bad for the gop. It’s like you showed up to a gun fight with a supersoaker.
Maybe next time.
Sarah is not a racist…but anytime the the Democrats think they are losing that is what they will call you….so what…your not going to scare Sarah…she has fought some tough politician’s and won…while Obama is a Chicago street thug…!!!!
Obama is the racist…as we well know, you don’t belong to a church of Rev Wright for over 20 yrs and say your not…I’m sure his past is crooked as he~~…don’t use the race card, we are sick of it…..then call us all racists because you can’t admit the truth….who gives a damn!!!
These people are so far out in LEFT field!
Here is an interesting article from 2006 about how they are trying to destroy our country and the minds of our kids through education. I believe this also applies to the media and our government.

Yeah, lets DO drop the garbage.
All the talk about me being a Nigger lover…
All the talk about me being a Stripper…
All the talk about me being the Mother of Mongrels…
All the talk about me being on Welfare and Foodstamps…

All the garbage.

On a previous thread, I asked Steve Holloway why he would chose to post here, and he said that he’d received alot of support from this site in the boycott against Aruba; but, even, he cannot stand the hate that people direct toward other people, including Joran. He has asked that it stop. I have asked that it stop. And his suggestion, to me, personally, was to be Christ-like and forgive before the asking.
.
John Staton:
Whoever you think you are, or whatever insight you think you have about me or anyone else on this site; is a figment of your imagination. There are people being bashed by you, all the time. People that simply state their opinion and while it doesn’t agree with yours, it gives you no excuse for making personal attacks against anyone. To hope that death comes upon them. To speak about self-inflicted wounds or to speak about someone as if they are supporting the Holloways for fame, money or a spotlight is pure stupidity; especially, when those statements are directed toward me, personally.
I adopted two bi-racial children and for you to speak about my children, whom I love as much as any parent would love their children, is a heartbreak. You act like you are such a success because you’ve given Eskimos glasses, or whatever it is that you do… but, based on the attitude that you have inflicted on me, I doubt that you’ve ever done anything for anyone based on love, compassion or empathy. Maybe it was your job. But I have a job, just like Dave Holloway, Steve Holloway and every other parent on this planet, has a job and that is to take care of my children.
And now, your latest ‘bash’ after making up lies about me and calling my children names, is wishing that my candle be a brief one… and I know EXACTLY what that means and so does everyone else.
So I will say to you, right now, that you are going to find yourself on the losing end of this argument.

See ya, wouldn’t want to be ya…

MEDIA BIAS ROBS AMERICANS OF THE TRUTH
… NOW, AP IS UNFARILY PLAYING THE RACE CARD …
The media’s continual bias in favor of Obama is not only disgusing, it’s against everything that America, a Free Press, and Freedom of Speech stands for. To suggest that there is no media bias in favor of Obama not only robs Americans of the truth, it insults the intelligence of the American people.

Foxy,
There seems to be a lot of hateful sentiment here on both sides of the race issue, and I am sorry to see it. I have followed this board because of Natalee from the beginning, and wish there was more information about her case… I hate to see the negative turn this board is taking.
I have one question which perhaps you can answer for me regarding race relations. I ask it in all seriousness. Why is it that so many black folks rally around the angry words of Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton or Rev. Wright, but they do not champion the successes of Condi Rice, Colin Powell, Tiger Woods, Bill Cosby, Alan Keyes, Kareem, Magic, Candice Wiggins, the list of sports figures goes on and on, The Globetrotters, J.C. Watts, Dr. Walter E. Williams…
These are people who have become successful in spite of the odds. They are leaders who inspire us all, and you rarely hear them repeating the hatespeach of Rev. Wright. Why doesn’t the black community champiion these folks and what they say???
Foxy,
One thing our grandparents never would have dreamed of is the discourtious way that people address each other on the Internet. I guess it is the anonymity that makes people think they can say anything. Most of us have been guilty at one time or another, but with some its just routine.
It is a sad statement about the character of our society…

Hey you dingaling. She might have kids that are not white in color but I’ll tell you what they are the most lovable kids. Their loved by all their neighbors and they love their mom. Her son comes to visit her everyday to have lunch with her and they wave at me everytime they drive by and I’m white. I don’t know where you’re coming from but I think your a racist. This woman is the most caring person in the world and she will care about you whether you are white, black, Mexican or any other color. Email me back @ turbochevy4848@yahoo .com.

Pat:
The only reason I came here was for Natalee, too. But, whatever she had, in her, that brought people together, is gone. And the thing that bothers me most was the attack against her family regarding slaves and Nazism. Had it not been for that, maybe the case would have been solved and there would have been justice. I said it before and I’ll say it again, Paulus Van der Sloot knew exactly what to say to paint Beth as the enemy in the eyes of the Islanders.
My kids like Tiger Woods.

Nite…
Foxy…I am sorry if you have had troubles but I have read a few comment boards this morning and YOU keep bringing it up…No one else is.
It hurt when people judged you yet I hear NO out cry when the press says horrible things against Sara. Your children?? How do you think it feels when they blame Sara’s Husband of unspeakable sin against his children, Nasty;just nasty..Then accuse her of keeping her daughter’s baby to raise. And there is so much more but SHE,holds her head high and champions on. I don’t think she has EVER brought it up.
Now the AP says she is racist because she dares question Obama’s friends and associates? I question them as well but sometimes I dare NOT to speak my mind because I might be jumped on and called a racist!! I don’t think that was what “our” founding Father’s had in mind but the black Americans sure have made it that way.
So please..if you stop printing it over and over maybe the hate can be lost. Picking the sore only makes it bleed more.
James etc. Ever bother to read what I have posted here? Simply put, everything the lady posted indicating her education, profession, that of her “husband” etc has been a fraud. It is soooo evident. She finally admitted that her only experience concerning Alaska was that she went there one time. When someone is completely false concerning themselves, can they be true to anything else?
I don’t just talk the talk, I walked the walk. From marching for freedom in the 60′s; Medic during Viet Nam, attaining high education, high professional position and dedicating my life to youth development and the betterment of the People in general. My wife and I have done more public good, created more capital both corporate and personal than anyone on this site.
I refuse to listen to some fraud that can only mouth Left Wing CRAP!!!
Well there are a whole load of bad guys (I mean really bad guys) who liked Bush, so using the logic of 24 above that makes Bush really bad too right ?
Hence if we reverse the logic (being liked by the good guys makes you really good), did anyone ever hear of a good guy who liked Bush ?
Lets be liked again, liked at home and liked in the rest of the world. This is not about being liked by terrorists its about being liked by as many people from as many walks of life and as many countries as possible. Not just liked but respected for wanting to change this awful reputation that Bush and his cronies have given the USA over these past 8 deplorable years.
__________
SM: Why don’t you take a larger view and go back and add another 8 years to your analysis? It was no different then.
I find it incredibly foolish any black person cares at all about being called the “N” word. I mean..it is JUST a word and unless the person THEMSELF associates who and what they are with that word, why would they feel irritated?
I’ve said this before, but if I called any one of you an earthworm, or buzzard, or green apple or something..you’d think I was a complete idiot. THAT is EXACTLY how anyone called the “N” word or otherwise should react IMO. How I react when some idiot calls me this or that. I mean, give me a single reason I should care??!!
Foxy Lady…you sure have backwards twist on life and fact/truth.
No…Sarah Palin is not part of some crazy organization. That lie was debunked LONG ago. If you don’t like SM, why are you here? No one is going to miss you if you’re gone.
I have been following the campaigns for a while now, just finished watching some American news coverage, in my humble opinion honest journalism is DEAD, not just in the UK but in the USA, it is dangerous, pitiful and makes me fear for the future of our children. Obama MUST be taken to task about his past connection to BA, Rev Wright,and just this morning i heard of another dubious character, in the shape of a Palestinian who was high ranking in Arrafats organization!!!!!These are legitimate questions that MUST be asked, ALSO, arent two former heads of Fannie May and Freddie Mak{apologies for spelling}high up in Obamas campaign, cause for concern, me thinks!!!!I really think coming down to CHARACTER John McCain wins hands down, i would trust him with my childrens LIFE!!!! He has proven to be a man of Honour and Integrity, i am uneasy as to WHO Obama would “get into bed with” for his OWN political ends!!!
#6- Foxy Lady—-GET OVER IT ALREADY! Let me tell you something, Foxy—I have been a blogger on this site for almost 4 years. SM does NOT condone racisim nor do they promote it.
While I cannot speak collectively for many of the bloggers here—I can assure you—the owners and Management of this site are NOT racist.
That aside- I vehemently REFUSE to defend anyone on here who rants and raves with racial overtones.
The point being: There is no room in our modern day society–nor should we tolerate overt racisim.
The topic of this post is starting to get old though. I don’t even have to read the entire post to understand it was only a matter of time till ONCE AGAIN- the race card was deployed.
It is HIGH time for America (the BIGGEST MELTING POT IN THE WORLD I MIGHT ADD) to MOVE ALONG. Does racisim as we know it still exist? Of course. Is it fair? No. Do those of races other than Caucasian continually USE THE RACE card or are the racist themselves in TURN? Yes.
Reverend Wright—perfect EXAMPLE. I, as a white person will not judge anyone by the color of their skin-yet by the content of their character. But I have to tell you as a White Italian-American woman, I am SICK TO DEATH of this issue continuing to be unfairly used against those in the public eye UNFAIRLY.
Barrack Obama is half white and half black. He was raised by his WHITE Grandmother and Mother since his black Father literally abandoned him.
PLEASE PEOPLE- save this topic for another day. It is getting soooooooooooo OLD and most rational and educated people realize that it is not a part of our everyday lives. If it still is a part of yours—-learn how to deal with it properly by educating those who are ignorant. Stop trying to pull the race card on the majority of us who are not.
the biggest difference between mcain & obama is that mccain wouldn’t step over the threshold in bill ayer’s foyer… much less participate in a celebration at the home of that terrorist.
this all falls into line with michelle obama’s comments about being proud of her country for the 1st time in her adult life.
what do we discover next? have the obamas had timothy mcveigh for brunch? perhaps mohamed atta to dinner? where do we draw the line about what’s acceptable behavior from elected officials?
ever wonder why joe lieberman is so eager to see obama defeated? it’s the ties with terrorists & willingness to give credibility to anti-jewish groups from obama & co..
P.S. Foxy—-I am sorry to come off rude as I do not know you and won’t judge. However—-it seems as if you harbor much resentment and anger against those who have hurt you in the past.
Why do you insist on lumping ALL of us on this site into that category?
Again, not to be rude—but my suggestion to you is to continue to seek professional counseling for you anger management issues and tell your Dr.to review your medication regimen.
PEACE
Dear Mary/UK,
Thx for your thoughts. Agreed…the mainstream news media is on a witch-hunt to destroy morality IMO and bring on socialism as a world view.
We keep hearing that Obama is favored in every country except the Republicans in America. Is that true? From what you say and the comments I’ve read from other international news websites, many folks are concerned what will happen to the whole world should Obama actually get the office.
What do you think and what is your view on what your fellow countrymen/women see in Obama as a potential “leader”?
AP pulling the “race card” is laughable, and a symptom of overwhelming bias in the media.
We will question the character of a candidate.
We will inspection the activities of a candidate.
We will question the judgement of a candidate and seek information.
We need to know.
The election to the Highest Office in the Land, should not be accomplished by a coin toss, while blindfolded.
Media and friends of Democrats have been crawling all over Alaska looking for the dirt.
When it comes to Barack Obama,
IT’S BEER with Barry!
AP-17 min. ago:
In her earlier attacks, Palin had said that Obama “pals around with terrorists.” News reports pointed out that Obama was eight years old at the time of Weather Underground bombings and that the two men do not know each other well although they live in the same Chicago neighborhood, have served on a charity board together and Ayers hosted a meet-the-candidate event when Obama first ran for state office in the mid-1990s.
_____________
****News reports pointed out that Obama was eight years old at the time of Weather Underground bombings. . .****
Obama was not 8 years old when Bill Ayers made a statement on Sept. 11, 2001.
Find it, read it.
Wikipedia, Bill Ayers:
(gives some sources)
Much of the controversy about Ayers during the decade since the year 2000 stems from an interview he gave to the New York Times on the occasion of the memoir’s publication.[18] The reporter quoted him as saying “I don’t regret setting bombs” and “I feel we didn’t do enough”, and, when asked if he would “do it all again” as saying “I don’t want to discount the possibility.”[14] Ayers has not denied the quotes, but he protested the interviewer’s characterizations in a Letter to the Editor published September 15, 2001: “This is not a question of being misunderstood or ‘taken out of context’, but of deliberate distortion.”[19]

Obama: I’m Barack Obama, and I approved this message.
Announcer: With all our problems, why is John McCain talking about the sixties? Trying to link Barack Obama to radical Bill Ayers. McCain knows Obama denounced Ayers’ crimes, committed when Obama was just eight years old. Let’s talk about standing up for Obama today. John McCain wants to spend $10 billion a month in Iraq…
__________
Obama denounces Ayers’ activities when Obama was 8, and still pals around with Ayers after 21, after 31, after Obama was a grown up.
What abou these reports of the comment Sarah Paln made in a restaurant having lunch ‘…so Sambo beat the b***h…’ she’s disgusting quite frankly. As I’ve said before, this country’s going to get EXACTLY what’s coming to it if the McCain/Palin ticket win.
I must reword my previouis comment, # 13, I hate that number…lol
# 6 – Foxy Lady – What do kids in kindergarten calling each other the “N” word have to do with the LEFT and the media spreading their vicious lies and falsely accusing Sarah Palin of being a racist?
Adding to it, “what’s good for the goose is good for gander”. It’s OK for OSAMA Barack SADDAM HUSSEIN Obama to bad mouth McCain/Palin, right??? WRONG!! It appears Obama can dish it out, but not take it. He needs to grow up! Better yet, if Obama and his family would kindly leave the USA it would make me very, very, very happy
Obama shouldn’t be “palling around” with terrorists and racists. It’s not nice!!
Sadly, the mainstream media is not about to report anything we can discuss here on SM regarding this association with a known terrorist…
#32 ….I disagee with your comment about Rev. (Wrong) Wright…to paraphrase we should turn our eye away from the fact that O’Bama sat under was taught, his racist doctrine for 20 years is very foolish to do.
Wright was O’Bama’s mentor and taught him to hate the “White” person and you want to sweep that under the carpet…and O’Bama’s wifes comment that this is the first time she is proud of America …. Well to me that is being ANTI AMERICAN TO SAY THAT…
Sorry Mis Italian American… I don’t buy it!
Ciao…
#32 Also… your comment “not to pull the race card”…. Race Card my baby toe!
Facts are Facts…He said it now he needs to own it!
New Girl:
What about Mr. John Staton?
Do you consider his actions to be honorable? Talking to someone on the internet about self-inflicted wounds and candles burning out?
I recall a story of a woman that impersonated a young boy who harassed a teen-age girl. The harassment resulted in the girl committing suicide. Everyone on Scared Monkeys were appalled and thought the woman should be charged with a crime. My point is this. For the past three days this man has called me a liar, a fraud, a stripper, a mother of mongrels, a person living on food stamps and welfare. All of which are untrue. You think YOU’re tired of it? How do you think I feel? I have never said that Sarah was anything other than what she is. If that story about her firing the Police Chief about issues relating to bars being open until 5 a.m. and concealed weapons, was debunked long ago, then why is the story still in the papers as recently as October 3? And why are the legal papers being held by a court in Seattle?
There is no double standard. All the candidates need to be looked into… not just Obama.

Mr. Staton:
I couldn’t care less about your personal life. Your achievements mean nothing here and you have not won the respect of anyone on this site, just as I haven’t. You have done your share of ranting as well, but on a personal basis… as opposed to the issues at hand.
I told you that we would leave it up to Steve Holloway to decide.
He made his decision…
Now get over it!
.
Let’s declare a moratorium on posters trying to justify their personal lives. This thread is about the implication of the AP article that Sarah Palin’s comments are racist.
It’s not about any of us.
Hey 41 … we don’t want any socialist in the white house or anyone who is a personal friend of a radical person like Ayers….badda bing badda BOOM!
I agree with 41 –
Sarah Palin is a loose canon,
There’s no telling WHAT might come out of her mouth.
Throw in a few winks and nods and fake smiles…
You got Plain Palin the candidate that mandates ignorance.
.
Richard:
I say we have a moratorium on posters that Bash people like Mr. John Staton has done countless times in the past three days. I don’t have a problem with anger management, but, maybe he does. Just my 2 Cents was bashed by him, relentlessly, over and over again.
What is he trying to hide about Palin?
Or is it just plain greed?
.
Light the Fires!
.
Uhhhh…Foxy…speaking of winks and a fake smile, ever hear of Hitlery Clinton??? Free Republic had a smathering of photos linked that showed her winking and with all kinds of HUGE ridiculous looking smiles. Guess you and the rest of the mainstream media missed that.
As for a loose cannon, GOOD! We need one. At least she’s behind the cannon, and we know she’s a fantastic aim!!!
Brenda Hi!!! I think the fact that Obama is African American is ALL that a large portion of the UK public seem to care about, they seem to see it as a HUGE step forward in American politics, i DO AGREE, i just would like it to be the WRIGHT one. I was rooting for him to win the nomination but NOW is the time for him to come clean about his associations with certain individuals, i really wish i was alot smarter, to really grasp the ins and outs of the issues, but yesterday another issue raised its ugly head, in the form of, ACORN, seems another dodgy area where my trust in Obama would be an issue.
I have to admit i am affraid for the future, Putting Obama in the white house is like giving the keys of your porsche to a three year old, worse still “Commander in Chief”!!! GOD HELP US!!!
I guess what it comes down too, for me, is, i get the impression its an “AMERICAN IDOL” election, and it scares the, you know what, out of me.
#42, oh, sure, palin said that. it was probably the same day obama said “i can’t wait for all those little white interns to show up in the oval office for me”. that “he said, she said” crap works both ways and benefits noone, especially those that repeat it.
dennisintn
She speaks the truth and is TRANSPARENT. You couldn’t see through Obama with x-ray vision.
Who speaks the truth, Palin?
You need to get a grip.
If they drill off shore in Alaska,
It will ruin hundreds of millions of years of creation.
.
Gee…
I wonder where all those wooden arrows for the kids
and
Those massive bottles of vaaaaa Rum is going?
.
Truth, to me, is uprightness…

What is so AMAZING to me is how lethal some of you so-called conservative christian Republicans are. My God. The bottom line is more people(that means ‘us’ non-whites) would probably support the Republican Party ticket if they reached out and showed they are really out to help America and not just a certain sector of it. There is absolutely no reason for anyone that is of any color other than “right white” to feel as if this party gives a dern. I am a christian and I don’t believe in everything the democratic party believes. But the republican’s history of racist leaders won’t allow for that party to grow. It’s sad and too bad for you. Country first this, Country first that, please. Let’s not even go into the history of this country. And guess what, that n-word, is not the same as calling me a buzzard dumb woman, you are worse than Palin, simply out of touch and don’t get it.
I’m sorry but I’ve just got to add about the “N” word.
Those of caucasian decent (sorry about spelling) -just don’t use the word – simple enough said. For me America was the biggest SLAVE owners in the modern era that word brings from your mouths has a different connotation. In the time line of world history Slavery ended only a short time ago – in the UK 200 years ago.
How short is your memories that it has been forgotten that AMERICA only started to look at mixed schools in the 60′s – not even 50 years ago. If there was no activists in the 60 – black people would be still riding the back of the Bus!
Ever heard that one man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom figher – or you guys would still be part of the UNITED KINGDOM – or did you forget you’ve had your on TERRORIST according the the CROWN!
What happen to the 40 acres and the mule that all freed slaves were to be given?
Don’t talk about RACISM like you know what it’s like – you don’t and be grateful that you won’t either.
The 60′s was a different ERA – BLACK people had bee treated like second class citzens for up 15 years after. Don’t mean to go on but some of you need to take up modern history.
ps all these blasted TERRORIST where train by the CIA……. hummm Afganisitan to figh the RUSSIANS for one example……….
I don’t know what PALIN said don’t really give a damn….you guys already elected GW Bush TWICE if you vote her & the old man in ………
How can a mostly white media call anybody a racist, every day they leave their all white job and run home to their all white neighborhoods and discuss racial politics with their all white neighbors, the fact is the media will not criticize this administration because they are terrified of being called racist and they are losing what little credibility they have in the process, attacking sarah palin is their way of showing americans that they are serious journalist.
I was taught the gonorrhea came about by white women having sex with dogs. all white people are bi-sexuals. and all white people are n(edit)ers! it is a Nigeran based word used to describe flithy white people and there ignornat ways. you m(edit) f are not white but flesh colored freaks…. there is NO MORE WHITE POWER! God bless the Black race.

All I can say is God bless your troubled soul. Every one serves a purpose in life, some people are to provide a bad example and what never to be like.
What a sad and troubled individual you are.
