Really, you couldn't make this shit up.....
 
Sarah Palin finally took questions on Tuesday from her traveling
press corps on her campaign plane. Asked if she thought Senator
Obama was dishonest (about Ayers, apparently, but who knows?),

“I’m not saying he’s dishonest, but in terms of judgment, in
terms of being able to answer a question forthrightly, it has two
different parts to this. The judgment and the truthfulness and
just being able to answer very candidly a simple question about
when did you know him, how did you know him, is there still — has
there been an association continued since ’02 or ’05, I know I’ve
read a couple different stories. I think it’s relevant.”

The mangled syntax, the garbled, incoherent phrasing and the
inability to express a complete thought in a complete sentence
shows that she's a category 5 moron.

Ditto on Wayne's comment. And . . .

Richard, Alaskan politics and corruption make your part of the country
and NJ where I started look if not squeaky clean, at least not in the
basement. That, and her fibs, not just her words per se, is what gives
the belly laughs in the NW to her candidacy. Sarah as a "reformer?"
All things are relative but Sarah, or frankly any Alaska politician of
the last few decades, are walking ethical time bombs, D or R.

The process of building up a Resource/Govt largess based State has
always been messy. Words like "conflict of interest" and
"conservative" just do not have the same meaning up there. Folks who
don't know that may know Alaska from the tour ships but not much else.
Alaskans as a group are some great people, and fun, and Alaskan women
are in a class by themselves if one appreciates strong, athletic women
as I do. But clean politics? NFW.

She is getting a bad wrap on some of the regional speech patterns.
Folks in the PNW say "You Betcha" all the time. And "fer sure," and
some Chinook jargon words like "skookum" etc, sometimes we use flat
Native American inflections and word order, and lots of hard "R"s
etc.. That is how we often talk to one another and I would guess that
she is a bit more that way because she hasn't traveled much out of the
PNW.

But who ever came up with Palin, whoever was supposed to vett her for
the Rs, deserves to be shot by the Rs. And on her and her husband's
ultimate ethical demise . . . I will give odds for a modest bet.

I disagree. I've defended both Dems and GOPers for gaffs that were
blown WAY out of proportion by the media and/or the opposition. Is her
statement as eloquent as it could be? Nope. Do I understand what she
is trying to communicate? Yes. Do I think that you and others
understand what she is trying to communicate? Yes. And besides, nobody
has been able to get an answer, eloquent or otherwise, out of Obama
about Ayers to dismantle, anyway...

And I know you've read enough depos to know that often, a transcript of
the depo of a generally-eloquent person often does not eloquently convey
what those present clearly understood as being conveyed.

Here's the answer:

"I expected that at some stage we'd have to give it. Now, I'm not sure
that we expected that it would come up in the way that it did. But it
was unrealistic to anticipate that, during the course of this campaign,
if not now then certainly in the general election, that this was not
going to be an issue that had to be addressed.

But it's nothing that's going to be unique to the next presidency.
It's been something that presidents throughout our history have or have
not dealt with, but it's always been there. "

Guess the question and the person being questioned - was it Palin on the
economy or McCain on "The Keating 5?" NOTE- the next presidency was
substituted for a word that would provide a clue to the identity of the
speaker

You avoid the question. This dirty campaign is a major element in the

The opposing effort is the "Schlepping to Florida" effort led by, of

a kickoff day for younger voters to contact their Florida resident
registered Democrat Jewish parents and Grandparents, and counter the
Republican financed campaign spreading tales that Obama is an Arab,
secret Muslim, Jew hater, who wants to destroy Israel. The racist
Republican campaign is estimated to have influenced the vote of about
12% of their elderly Jewish targets so far. The hate campaign has been
operating for about a year now, pretty much under the radar, and the
Democratic response is just getting tooled up. Sarah scares me.

Supposedly the anti-Obama hate campaign is "anonymous," but that is a
joke. Except for a short period after Nixon, the Republican Party has
maintained a permanent set of dirty project contractors. Funding
usually is well hidden with a few notable exposures such as Tom
Delay's "youth charity" fund, exposed when he tried to also use it
for funding some gala parties at the 2004 convention. Pieces of the
Abramoff payoffs appear to have ended up in some of the dirty projects
targeted on reducing African American voting, and over the years funds
from techically legal right-wing operatives like those of Richard
Mellon Scaife and groups like the Coors foundations have made it onto
the filings of cut-out groups thought to fund racist and voter
intimidation projects designed to help Republican candidates, or hurt
Democrats.

I do not think that John McCain likes the racist parts of these
projects but he wants to win and the dirty projects are what's given
the GOP the winning margins in many elections. I also believe that
most State and local Republican Parties do not have dirty tricks
groups or projects. I do believe that the majority of this activity is
directed at the national level, from the RNC, with a very good system
of cut-outs and fronts to confuse their origins.

One rumor has it that one of the contractors on the Jewish Elderly
Democrat project in Florida has inadvertently hired some KKK figures,
or a KKK data base or some dastardly thing like that. Sounds like
wishful thinking to me. With any luck this thing will blow up in the
RNC's face, but so far they are winning the dirty wars. Watch Florida.
As near as I can tell, the Democratic Party has nothing to compare to
the Republican Darkside (sometimes referred to as "the rat****ers" in
the old days), But I sometimes wished the Democrats did.

The world is full of nasty ****s and nutcases, just as this newsgroup
has people like you, Fortenberry, LaCourse, et al.

You use anything you see fit, including lies, total rubbish like weird
sexual fantasies, and other nasty propaganda, to upset, insult, and
defame people. So when you complain about others doing it, normal
sensible people just laugh at you.

Along with others here, you forfeited any right, or chance, to be
taken seriously when you started misbehaving. Although it appears that
you are too stupid to realise that.

It makes no difference at all what you write now, as people know what
you are.

To top it off, RNC Dirty tricks operative Andy Martin is

There are always cut-outs between Martin and his funders. He is a
crazy fox. And he does occasionally bite his handlers. But the damage
he inflicts is usually in one direction. Just look at how long Martin
has been in this business and try to figure out where his funding
support comes from. And reliability comes in many flavors: Martin has
been a very reliable anti-Semite.

That the South Florida project to intimidate elderly Jewish registered
Democrats is part of a Rove designed campaign, that Rove is working
for the McCain campaign, and that Martin is a leading player are not
in question. But I would not bet that Martin's funding can be traced
to the RNC. If I were guessing I'd look first at the Coors front
groups, but I do not actually who his money conduit is.
