"You really are using old liberal talking points that have been answered here many times over the years."


When did liberals ever bring up her support for LOST, or Title IX funding, or the Executive Order creating a climate change panel which gave a nod to carbon caps and registries? When Sarah was first announced as McCain's running mate, the Alaska NEA actually expressed their approval. Some of these criticisms I heard from conservatives long before the left started in on attacking her. For quite a while I defended her because I thought that she had the potential to become a conservative champion. Finally, these points were not "answered", but merely explained away. I went along with the defense at the time because I thought that she had conservative instincts and would come around on these points. I have never heard her reverse course on any of these issues and have given up hope that she will.

“Bridge to Nowhere”? Obama’s old saw about earmarks? the leaving Wasilla in debt? and many other of the old liberal attacks?

Myself, I will need to go back in time to gather old stuff to meet your attacks on the internet.

I’m not desiring to start this process again tonight.

I have never heard her reverse course on any of these issues and have given up hope that she will.

Her letter about LOST speaks of it from the viewpoint of an Alaskan Governor who saw that Russia and others were going to steal US oil and resources without a better treaty, so you should be able to understand that. She hasn't reversed her position on Title IX, that is true, she appreciated the benefits she learned from playing basketball and described it in her autobiography. How she will address it in the future is a bit of a mystery.

You did mischaracterize her climate panel quite a bit. She appointed one to study the issue and never accepted their findings (did they have any?), nor did she do anything like cap and trade or move towards it.

It's also true the last couple of years, she has skewered the global warming crowd, cap and trade, the Copenhagen conference, and Obama for following their insanity multiple times. I think you missed that.
