I don’t know if that’s true. She’s too affable somehow.

How do you figure? She’s not known for that sort of thing.

Only if you were being sarcastic.

.... he complained that the actress is setting a bad example by having a baby out of wedlock, calling her out for glamorizing the idea of out-of-wedlock children ...

Natalie Portman, out of the blue, announced both her engagement (to the baby's father) and her pregnacy on the same day. By the time the baby is born, she may very well already be married.

The pregnancy was probably an "accident" and she could have had an abortion so that the holier-than-thou crowd would not point fingers.

Attacking her serves no useful purpose and will only hurt Huckabee.

No one in politics has EVER been attacked so vociferously as former Governor Sarah Palin,

Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Dan Quayle, George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Henry Kissinger, Nancy Pelosi, Newt Gingrich, John McCain on FR threads, ......

.... especially as she is a private citizen, the same as you and me.

If Sarah Palin were merely a "a private citizen, the same as you and me", she would be yesterday's news .... like John Edwards.

But, she is not "a private citizen, the same as you and me". She is neck deep in current politics. She hints at being a 2012 Presidential candidate. She sticks her nose in Delaware Senate politics, gets a conservative nominated in a liberal state (with results as predictable as getting a liberal candidate nominated in a conservative state) and hands a Senate seat to the Obama forces on a silver platter. She takes every opportunity to be in the limelight, even to the point of doing Reality TV with Kate Gosselin.

Palin and Gosselin in the Mother of All Reality Shows

Liberals attack Sarah Palin for the same reason that we attack Nancy Pelosi: They are both very easy targets, they both have Unfavorable poll ratings that top 50% among all voters and we both want to paint them as the face of the opposing Party.

Well, Huck just went up in my opinion. I have no respect for Portman, born in Israel, who in fact REFUSED to go home and do her duty in the Israeli army.

She has the talent of toast without butter.

My opinion all.

Her family emigrated here when she was three. Do you think the children of all immigrants should go back and serve in the army of the country their parents left?

For Israel...Yes, I think she should have.

Be realistic. There’s no precedent for that at all.

Ah, but you didn't say a word about realism or precedence now did you.
