You’re entitled to your opinion, Marie; I’m entitled to strongly disagree.

I run into this take on Sarah a lot. It totally skips over “death panels,” which to me shows she’s willing to lie: over and over again just to try to force on the less intelligent; more gullible, a phony talking point. Five years ago John Kerry was accused of parading his military experience around for political gain. If that was an issue, then certainly Palin parading her preggie daughter and her live in sex toy boyfriend around as if this was anything but an example of how her no-sex education approach is a failed approach to raising children; or a stirring example of how her claim to stand for a more moral America is bogus… and politically driven. I understand parenting is hard; especially at that age. To paraphrase my life-long Conservative father, “By then if you haven’t done it right: good luck.” Can you imagine a Democrat running for office parading a pregnant daughter and her obviously disinterested boyfriend around? They’d become a laughing stock and easy targets for FOX, Limbaugh, Hannity et al.

In Alaska there certainly isn’t agreement regarding this, considering charges that have been brought and many interviews I have heard. I know what the answer from some is that they’re “all” driven by outsiders trying to cause trouble: a standard ploy when trying to cut off serious discussion regarding such charges.

RS is right. You are entitled. Please return and comment again.

But as far as “a good example?” I think there should be serious questions regarding that.
