I’m just saying, anyone who quotes Andrew Sullivan about appropriate demeanor . . .

“We now know that, far right or far left, substance still sells.”

I sorry - I’m not buying the old BS substance you and your RINO ilk are selling any more. We’ve had enough. It seems they want the right to wild Ms. Palin without her feeling she has the right to fight back. The problem with Republicans is that they rarely fight back.

“Specifically, when she’s on a stage with other GOP candidates, how will she stack up?”

Well maybe she’ll just sit down and shut up, so we’ll never know./s

He makes some lame point about how the other candidates “have to put up” with the media attacks so she should as well. Yeah, the media really goes after those other candidates’ families./s

So many articles proclaim she has no shot or shouldn’t even try. YOU’RE MAKING HER STRONGER, thank you! We are entering a time of extreme dislike for the usual political establishment. It makes sense historically that these establishment types will be and are being taken completely unawares.

Her Thanksgiving post was not about Obama, nor was it disrespectful. It was about how Obama can slip up and not be criticized, but when she says one word wrong, she is not just criticized but made to look totally ignorant and uninformed. The post was about the media, not Obama.

What this illustrates is that when anyone calls attention to Obama’s fallibility, to his shortcomings and thereby illuminates the media’s total responsibility for getting him elected, that person will be vilified by the socialist media worldwide.

They better get used to it. They are going to hear much more in the next 21 months or so and they aren’t in charge anymore.

"Beyond that, I thought Palin's "Thanksgiving Message To All 57 States" was disrespectful of a solemn, 389-year-old American tradition. That doesn't make her unpatriotic. It just proves that she's irredeemably trivial.

No, you ninny - it was a shot at the MSM that refuses to acknowledge any gaffe made by Obama, but will label Palin as an idiot for misspeaking.

It's the double-standards, stupid.

YouTube.com is filled with videos of Obama saying idiotic things, yet they never see print or air time on the MSM.

Yet the MSM will flat-out make up lies about Palin and repeat them as fact.

FU MSM

The more they attack, the more we learn she's a lot tougher than she looks and acts!

She may not be the 2012 GOP candidate but she will have a lot to do with who does and does not get elected in 2012.

Uh, thanks, John. I’m trying to formulate an answer. Unfortunately, it’s rude to tell a Christian clergyman to perform something involving himself and the horse he rode in on.

How hard is it to understand that Sarah was using Facebook to poke fun at the lying, hypocritical Democrat “mainstream” newsrooms? Ubama had nothing to do with it.

Who is he?

Apparently someone not as well known as Gene Robinson. And who was never in my kitchen.

There is a meanness, a disrespect, a vicious partisanship that, if allowed to gain more power, would split this country more deeply and more rancorously than at any time in recent years. And that’s saying something.”

Oh really Mr. Taylor. More divisive than a petty narcissist who considers Republicans “the enemy” as he noted in the run up to the midterms, yet refuses to label Islamic terrorists as the enemy. Or calls those American citizens domestic terrorists who refuse to be unconstitutionally groped or otherwise violated in his quest to protect us from our non-enemies.

So Sarah defends herself against a media which howls about her mentioning North instead of South Korea in an ongoing discussion and yet is silent when the Chosen One lies about having an uncle who served in the US Army and then goes on about how the fictitious uncle was among those in the US Army who liberated Auschwitz. Palin defends herself against this type double standard and you scream about how partisan and divisive she has become for having the temerity to point out this folly which has now become commonplace.

Take your hand-wringing and whining somewhere else.

"Substance Still Sells, Sarah"

Sarah Palin has sold two best-selling books in the last 12+ months.

Substance does indeed sell.

Sorry, but Sarah is the epitome of Substance.

The Rev. Canon John H. Taylor’s definition means you let the left walk all over you, and you are a moderate on the issues.

Basically, I believe, the good Rev. is lying.
