Sarah and the Supremes  

I didn't think of it either, Zephyr, and I also didn't think of all the ones I saw you write about in other posts, but neither of us are running for V.P nor are we the governor of a state where such an important case had originated. Also, as I told Taskr, she could have admitted to drawing a blank. That way she may have endeared herself even more to some of her fans and she wouldn't have done
much damage with her detractors.
Annie

Yeah saying she was drawing a blank would have been fine but, she went to school to be a reporter she of all people should know how to handle the press.

Taskr, I think I've come to know you well enough and to know enough about you to know you're not someone who would impulsively answer a question without giving any thought to it and I honestly believe if you were in Palin's shoes you'd have remembered that case. It was less than a year ago and she obviously had strong feelings about it at the time.

However, I'd be quite willing to give her a pass since I can certainly relate to someone drawing a complete blank about something the know they should know about if she'd have just said that. I've quite frequently when discussing something or asked a question said straight out that I'd gone blank, that it was something on the tip of my tongue. By the way Sarah rather characteristically babbled on without answering Katie's question I have the feeling she just may have been thinking, "I KNOW that, I have to remember that case..." but it escaped her at that moment. She should have just said so, then when she thought of it or heard it pointed out in the media she could have made a statement the first chance she got about it. She could have made fun of herself a bit like lots of us do all the time and I don't think that would have made anyone think less of her.
Annie

Annie, people are just looking for reasons to think less of her. Any failure to answer that question properly would have given such a reason. You may have appreciated such a response from her, but those looking to bash her would have seized on any opportunity.

I won't disagree with you that there are those from both parties who will take any opportunity to bash the other side. I'm glad you're not one of them but do I ever wish you'd give some pointers to Kennyrose...lol! What a piece of work!
Annie

Rose, if you ever read someone else's posts you'd know the Supreme Court case occurred while Palin was Governor. Try reading the link. The question about what she reads stemmed from Palin's own words that she makes up for her lack of world travel by reading many newspapers and magazines so it wasn't a "bad" question. If she's a "smart cookie", she sure hasn't shown it yet!

I can't believe you said I'm somewhat obsessed with Palin! WHO has been posting every wacky, far-out piece of garbage you could scrounge up about Obama on a daily basis for months now? I'm not so much concerned that Sarah's a dumb pumpkin that fell off the pick-up truck as I am with McCain's lack of judgment in choosing her and throwing her into a situation she's ill-equipped to handle.
Annie

I skip KR's discussions and posts. But I was reading Annies... LOL thats funny she says you are obsessed with Palin.

Every single day Kenny rose is posting like 10 discussions about Obama. No one even responds to them anymore... its like the boy who cried wolf. But she keeps posting away lol.

I havent seen her post one positive discussion about McCain... its ALL Obama smear. I hope Obama wins... just to see her cry.

Tee,
why the hell would I waste my time posting about John McCain his record speaks for it self, you got a beef about McCain post it so I can check it out,all you rigger follower do is post about Sarah Palin,but I understand what the hell could you have to say about your >>>>>>RIGGER,his days are numbered save your pennies for a bouquet of flowers,by the way where he is going maybe you better sent them to him in advance so he can smell them.

I'm sorry KR, but you have been so blind to some of the facts and just speak from your heart, I find you to be an embarrassment to the logical conservatives that wish to debate on this subject.
You ramble about subjects and ideas that really have nothing to do with the topic at hand.

I understand your committment to the Conservative point of view and I admire you standing up for your beliefs, but you seem to be overlooking some of the important issues and delfect away from questions in order to make a point.

I happen to be a conservative too, but I am fair and honest and won't speak for or against anything until I have properly done my homework and found out for myself what is the truth, what is a half-truth and what is entirely just spin.
I suggest to you that you do the same. At the rate you are headed, you will have lost all credibility in this forum, unless thats already happened.
Its ok to speak your mind and give your point of view and opinions, but when those opinions are brought into question, you'd best be able to back them up with facts from a trusted source, in fact using several sources would be best.

I see that many here don't even read your posts anymore, and thats a shame, because you are able to make good points. However, the rambling that accompanies those points does more to harm your reputation than it does to help it.
I mean no offense KR, I'm just hoping that you'll take the advise of a fellow conservative and change your style of posting so that people will read your words again and also respect them as you intended.

Ok Rosey hun this is why I dont read your posts... I cant undertsnad a word you said. When you type you should try sounding more like an adult rather some teenager texing her BFF.

And for the record - I actually like McCain. What I dont understand is if you like him soo much, why not try to build him up instead of tearing the other guy down. It speaks volumes for the kind of person you are that you would rather slander someone instead of saying something nice about your candidate.

Oh and - what the heck is a "RIGGER"?

Why dont you just go ahead and say the word you REALLY mean to say.

Go ahead.


I dare you.

Rose, I really don't know for sure what you were trying to say there but I'm pretty sure it was a racist slur. I'm going to tell you one time and one time only - anymore of that kind of thing in a discussion I started or posted to and I WILL report it. There have been a lot of things posted about McCain as well as Palin that aren't totally positive and all you've EVER done was attack the messenger and come back with more attacks against Obama, most of them baseless. I've said over and over again I'm more than willing to debate and discuss the issues with anyone but you're obviously not capable of that.
Annei

II2aTee and Dr. Mario, I wanted to thank you both for adding some sanity and class to this particular post! As you saw I also brought up the word Rose used above and I will take action of I see anything like it again. This lady has some problems that go far beyond an unhealthy hatred for Obama and liberals.
Annie

I've never said this before in print about another myLotter. However, it sounds to me like kennyrose is just another nutcase, perhaps needs to take some time away from myLot to bleach the white sheets prior to the next rally.

I can't remember any VP candidate being made fun of in such a way as she has

How quickly we forget about Al Gore.....

How true! I don't think any V.P. candidate has every taken as much flack as Gore.

Cookie, I agree those who made up those stories about Palin's baby were disgusting goons but they weren't a part of the Obama camp or the Democratic party anymore than the infamous KR here on myLot is a part of the McCain/Palin camp or the GOP. Katie Couric is NOT what anyone would call a "tough" interviewer, in fact most people make fun of her softball questions. I don't think she asked anything inappropriate of someone who will be a heartbeat from the Presidency.

Anyway, thanks for your response and as always I respect your point of view but I'm afraid we'll really have to agree to disagree on this one because I don't trust her experience or judgment. I don't really want a man or a woman who is "just like the rest of us" to be the leader of the free world. I want someone exceptional for that position.
Annie

LOL. . .where on earth do you get this impression of Obama making America a dictatorship rofl. For heaven's sake, there's a legislature. The man is a constitutional scholar who was president of the Harvard Law Review. Disagreeing with a candidate is one thing, but where on earth do you get this nutty Truth Squad business? Seriously. On what grounds are you basing that?

By the way the candidates ALL get mocked and made fun of. They all get called out, the opposite party sends their "goons" after them and unfortunately it's been part of politics forever. If you haven't seen it, I don't know where you've been. The difference you might notice is that America has had a scant month to get to know anything at all about this woman who might someday occupy the White House. So you're getting a condensed version of what the other candidates have been facing for years.

"How true! I don't think any V.P. candidate has every taken as much flack as Gore."

Did you forget Dan Quayle? It was in 1988 that the "Only a heartbeat away" crap really started.

I'm sorry, I should have mentioned Dan Quayle but what I meant was nobody had taken the type of flack as Al Gore that was undeserved. Let's face it, Dan Quayle said some pretty off the wall things, and I'm not just talking about the misspelling of potato.

In my part of the country a rigger is a person that rigs thing's,in the post I was talking about "Acorn" which is a voters registration fraud group, Obama has been behind Acorn over twenty years,of late members of ACORN have been arrested for voters registration fraud in swing states.
Acorn members are riggers as they go about rigging votes in Barack Obama's favor,most American's resent this group and there backers and for very good reasons, they also are behind subprime loans they rig applications to get poor people in to homes they can not afford and this is why wall Street in part has been taken down with Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac, the Acorn people rigged application and pressure banks using racial tactics and now them millions poor are losing their houses they could not afford to be living in the first place,there loans was rigged and Acorn is guilt, the American tax payers will have to pay for this RIGGING by these RIGGERS and it just plain "DAMMED WRONG".

Are you talking about this post? Anyway- McCain's campaign is directly run by a FannieMae/Freddie Mac lobbyist. Last month his firm was still receiving $18,000 monthly from them. Personally, I see the subprime mortgages as a problem that could have been solved with regulation. McCain has been a proud deregulator for years. We all know this.

As for any confusion people were having with the term "rigger" -- it has a lot to do with reading your other posts about Obama which are undeniably racist.

Thank you, Moonlight, I agree, Katie bent over backwards through all those debates in my opinion to give Sarah a chance to "redeem" herself but she just kept digging her hole deeper and deeper.

Rose, what in the heck are you responding with this stuff to MoonlightSerenade's post? What did one single, solitary word you wrote here have to do with Moonlight's response?
