I say yes, you say no, OR People are Strange

Rosemary .. I'm quite brave speaking from my little computer chair!  But truly if it came down to me or the other guy .. I'm certain my family would prefer I was left alive.  The thought of an intruder in my home is terrifying, and with Tim on the road all the time, I have to 'feel' safe.  As others have said, the best home defense is a dog or a shotgun.

I have to say that is the best I have seen Palin in any interview.  Do you think she was fed the questions beforehand?  Nevertheless, I still do not see her as the leader of the United States of America.  Just MHO.

PIP .. I watched the Hannity interview and the Anderson clip.  Yes, Palin was quite sympathetic to those that were killed and injured.  She remains, in my opinion, as defiant and outspoken as ever.

Edited:  She hedged her bets though when asked if she took down the PAC ad.  She said she thought that maybe one of the webmasters took it down.  She wasn't sure about that.  Pulleeeze .. of course she knew it was taken down.  She also knew it was up long enough to take 'screen shots' of it .. those were her words.

Good press or bad press, she doesn't care as long as she is in the press!  She will not "sit down and shut up."

Ladies, did you see Bob Beckel on Hannity after the shooting?  Bob Beckel is a democrat through and through.  I saw that show and Bob said he invented crosshairs.  This is nothing new.  Why do you STILL talk about this?  This had not one thing to do with the shooting or the shooter.  It was not Palin's fault, nor Hannity, nor Beck, nor Levin, nor Bachmann, nor Limbaugh....did I leave ANYONE out?

I thought Palin did an excellent job.  No one HERE mentioned that she has had threats on her life, and worse yet, on her children's lives.  Have any of you seen the HORRIBLE things said about her and her children?  Do any of you ladies care how a woman is treated by the press or pundits?  Did you care how she was hammered when it was announced that she was running for VP?  Did you NOT think it was a bit unfair the way she was treated?  And, how about all the lawsuits? 

I don't get it.

Shirley:  It's sad that you don't get it about Palin when you seem very concerned about your country. Are we supposed to get her special treatment because she is a woman?  She knew what she was entering into when she got into politics and if she didn't then she is in "no" intelligent shape to be President of Bora Bora much less the US.  I am not against a female President, I am just against a female who is no more fit, in my opinion to be President than she is to be many of the things she aspires to be.   She aspires to be in the national spotlight and make tons of money.  She is doing that but it is still not getting intelligent people to "respect" her!    As for the things said about her and her children, she is the one who exploits her children to get them on camera any time she can.  She has to pay the price for what she does and I guess she is getting what goes with the territory.

I do not like the fact that you seem to be making an issue of the fact that she is a "woman" and being treated like this.  Any MAN who strived for what she is striving for and got as little respect as she gets, would have to take the same treatment.  SEX has nothing to do with it!  I can't believe you are trying to make this about her being a "woman".  Maybe she should stick to fishing and hunting and leave woman who are intelligent enough to be leaders run for the positions she aspires to.

IF our citizens go so over the top they EVER vote her in as President, I would be so happy if I could join our previous poster in becoming an illegal in Canada, Ireland, or any place Palin wasn't making a mockery of by trying to run it!  The Chinese will make chop suey out of her in a minute!

BTW, I was glad she got the hammering she deserved when she ran for VP.  SHE was the reason we didn't vote for McCain.  He blew it when he brought her in as his VP!   THAT was a desperate act if I have ever seen one by a presidental candidate! 

Medigal, I respect your opinion.  I know you dislike Palin very much.  You have said it over and over.  I guess I should not have brought her gender into this.  Okay, let me put it to you like this.  Do you think Obama was vetted like Palin by the MSM?  Do you think Obama was ready to be president?  Can you name one accomplishment in the Senate...loved a video on this.  I can post it.  It was during the primary....his supporter could not think of ONE accomplishment.

I'm just talking about fairness.  I don't think Palin has been whining about her treatment.  However, I'm sure she doesn't like her children being brought into crap.  I have always said about ANY candidate....leave the children out of it!  She had a teenager who got pregnant...I suppose that teenager was a fair target.  I suppose her down syndrome child was fair target.  I suppose the media making up crap about Palin's daughter birthing the child was a fair target. 

Medigal, I really don't expect to make you like Palin.  I'm not sure that it's her time to run for president...however, she is not dumb!  The funny thing is, when I hear people say they want to leave the country if so-and-so is elected...I LMBO.  Which movie star said they were leaving if Bush became president?  He never left.

BTW, you should blame McCain for choosing her, thus the reason you didn't vote for him.  Are you happy with your vote?  BTW, she wasn't running FOR president.  And if you think Biden is great as VP.............................................

When I heard Mccain had chosen a woman for his running mate I thought that was brilliant and that he would win the election. But I do not believe Palin was well pepared to run and I do not know if that was her fault or the fault of the campaign. Then she left her job as governor of Alaska. I think she would have done better running for VP if she had had more time as governor of Alaska or maybe a term in House or Senate. Now she's a reality tv star and political commentator on Fox. That certainly  is a new way to gain a political following.

Okay now how about a new veggie? My son left some bok choy here and we sauteed it in some olive oil. It was pretty good but does anyone have any good recipes for it?

 I don't know what a bok choy is.

I thought Palin gave a great speech at the convention.  I was impressed with her at the time.  It seems that things just went downhill after that.  I don't think she did her homework and she had problems with the way McCain was running his campaign.

Covert .. I never heard Hillary complain once about the awful comments made about her.  She's a class act.
