Mark Shields: Palin Quitting As Governor Is Like Kennedy's Chappaquiddick

News Busters ^ | 11/06/2010 | Noel Sheppard

[Lakeshark]

Lib commentators are simply crazy. They actually get paid to say stoopid stuff like this......

[bray]

Who died when she resigned? Besides thousands of $oro$ harrassment lawsuits.

Pray for America

[mkmensinger]

For starters, Palin didn’t kill anybody.

[Lakeshark]

Y'all did, of course, notice Sarah wore a neck brace when she announced her resignation.....

:-)

[tndarlin]

Yes, Mark “Maxi” Shields, quitting as a Gov is exactly the same as killing a woman while you were drunk! Keep on writing this crap. Does the media even know that we see through every single thing they write, say and opine!?!

[Husker24]

To a Democrat giving up power is worse then death.

[Anti-Bubba182]

Mark Shields is senile. At worst Palin resigning was a mistake. At worst Chappaquiddick was murder.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

The ruling class knows the Palin presidency is inevitable.

It's why they hate her.

And why she drives them mad.

[Cheetahcat]

Sorry but I fail to see the parallels between the two Kennedy was a drunken murdering bastard ,while Sarah was the victim of drunken murdering bastard defenders bearing false witness.

[WashingtonSource]

Mark Shields, your brain is dead. You have no reasoning ability. Murder by neglect is the equivalent of stepping down from an office for the betterment of Alaska?

[huldah1776]

So many people who watch MSM do not understand why she resigned. There needs to be a documentary put out on it or a SOAP opera series.

She did not quit, she just took herself out of the line of fire like the Brits recalling the Prince out of Afghanistan. Good grief.

[Lakeshark]

Shields is just continuing the new journolista meme of the week that she's "unelectable".

There are at least a dozen articles posted with this new line in the last couple of days.

[SoConPubbie]

Mark down their names.

They are either surrogates for Myth or the Huckster or someother progressive elitest or their a DNC Hack.

[cripplecreek]

Maybe he's on to something here.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Palin was a governor longer than Obama was a senator before he quit.

[ohiobuckeye1997]

Yep, her quitting meant that many Dem incumbents died this past tuesday and many more have a political life expectancy of about 2 years......Palin has a Kill rate of about 70%...that’s only 30% less than ted kennedy’s car!!!

[MrEdd]

Except nobody’s dead, she didn't drive off in a drunken stupor, and isn't spending the rest of her life as an inebriated sot chasing sexual conquests old enough to be her grandchildren.

But other than that...

There's still no resemblance.

[PGR88]

I saw the headline, and then the words “PBS Commentator” and stopped right there.

[Lakeshark]

LOL! Finally, a good parallel from the article......

[purplelobster]

It’s high time that the PBS fake news show was defunded. The U.S. taxpayer is paying the inflated salary of this doddering hack Mark Shields to fashion unfounded conspiracy theories.

[The Raven]

Mark Shields is like ......[fill in the blank]

[Brett66]

So she’ll be a senator for decades no matter how badly she behaves?

[xzins]

Mark Shields is a shill, so his comments must be taken in light of his political agenda.

[Grampa Dave]

Bless Shields and other far left mediots like him.

Bless Pelosi, the gift that keeps on giving to our side!

[wontbackdown]

It just goes to show that liberals can get away with murder - literally!

[Keith in Iowa]

Is Idiot Maxi Shields working with Tokyo Rove on a Palin disinformation campaign?

[sasquatch]

pssst, Mark...Prop 19 failed.

[dps.inspect]

Mark “Maxi” Shields, you slobgobler... now you invoke the drunken, lascivious, murderous Ted Kennedy, whom you have at all times in the past revered, and try to smear Palin with his likeness... you're as foul as the air between filthy chair cushion and your ass. When in the past have you ever spoke of Chappaquiddick in any way that might be hurtful to the late Teddy's political aspirations... and now, NOW, you use it to try to smear Palin? Slobgobler!!

[NonValueAdded]

Mark “panty” Shields equates Palin being hounded out of office by a limitless horizon of bogus ethics claims with Ted Kennedy’s murder of a campaign worker??? What a freaking idiot!!!

[Let's Roll]

Aside from the facts that no one died and she didn’t wear a neck brace when she resigned, she has been totally ineffective and without influence since she resigned, right?

If that were true, we wouldn’t be treated to these constant anti Palin screeds now, would we?

[Lockbox]

Gee Mark if Palin Quitting As Governor means she is unfit to run for higher office and it is like Kennedy’s Chappaquiddick, then why did you never say that Ted was unfit for higher office after Chappaquiddick?

[ez]

They’re very upset that she resigned the Governorship. They never dreamed whe would give up power and dodge their attacks. Instead she moved to a place where they cold no longer use the courts against her...private citizen.

[Leto]

The elites don’t get it. Most people have forgotten she resigned. Rove thinks the seriers she is doing will hurt her.

The series will help her connect with the American people. Rove doesn’t get it at all.

[dhs12345]

How nice to diminish the death and possible murder of a woman by making a stupid statement like this one.

[ClearCase_guy]

Working at PBS is like serving as a guard as Auschwitz.

Oh. Did I go too far?

[Truth is a Weapon]

What is wrong with America? At one time someone who uttered such nonsense would have been shunned and ignored. How can enough people listen to this guy and allow him any revelence whatsoever? What has happened to our moral compass?

[Redbob]

"To a Democrat giving up power is worse then death."

Worse than one of their minions' death anyway...

[Logical me]

Palin resigned because of the constant liberal legal attacks and it was costing her time and finances. It was burden to her office and a cost to the Alaskan Government. She knew her replacement had the same values as she did. One hell of a lot of difference than a killer.

[basil]

Not withstanding all that’s wrong with maxi-shields, IMHO, the best part of the web site is “News Busted” which I look forward to each week!

[Redbob]

"Shields is just continuing the new journolista meme of the week that she's "unelectable". There are at least a dozen articles posted with this new line in the last couple of days."

This shows how much they fear her, and that they recognize just how "electable" she is.

[Psalm 144]

Lol!

[Hoodat]

Sure, Mark. And Obama's economic plan for America is like Mao's Great Leap Forward.

[Lakeshark]

If I remember this correctly, after she resigned, Willie Brown (yes the lib pol from California) said she had the best political instincts he had ever seen, and that her decision would be seen as brilliant down the road.

The mid terms have shown her new influence, it's why there are many articles the last few days from the journolistas spreading the meme that "she's unelectable".

Like Rush says, they show us who they fear.

[Alberta's Child]

This astonishingly came moments after he called Nancy Pelosi the most effective House Speaker in his lifetime.

If she was such an effective House Speaker, then why did she also have the shortest tenure of any House Speaker in nearly 60 years?

[Bruinator]

So what is saying is that once in office she will be elected over and over again.

[Heart of Georgia]

Another corrupt badword.

[sappy]

Is Palin on a ballot somewhere?

[FlingWingFlyer]

Why is the commie left so fixated on Sarah Palin? She isn’t running for anything. They’ve been pounding her relentlessly since McCain announced her as her running mate. They’ve never let up. What is it with the commie boys anyway? What are they afraid of?

[WOSG]

I guess his heavy drinking from Tuesday’s loss hasn’t worn off.

[rod1]

Shields is battling David Broder for the most senile commnetator of the year.
