I don't like the term swift-skirting. The Swiftboats weren't lying. The left is as well as being downright mean with attacks on Trig and Sarah's family.

[USFRIENDINVICTORIA]

When can we expect the palinodes for these smears against Palin?

[trumandogz]

The Lies Against Sarah are piling up.

Now, they are saying that as Gov. Palin kept the 300 million dollars that was given to her state by Congress for the Bridge to Nowhere.

[pepperdog]

Glad you are doing this. Hopefully you’ll keep it up as it gives me a central place to go for answers to slurs. Thanks.

[El Sordo]

I don’t like the term either.

Besides, what the media is really doing is more akin to rape.

Rape of a person’s name and character.

I think I’ll start using that.

“The media’s rape of Sarah Palin.”

[Friendofgeorge]

“Just a Christian” as well as a Pentecostal are compatible. I do not believe Sarah left the Pentecostal Church for any particular reason. She did not renounce the Pentecostal Church. Forgive me but your bit on her Church, did not make that clear.It kind of made it sound like she was distancing herself from the Pentecostal Church, I do not believe that was the case at all.

[fr_freak]

Lie- Palin is hiding her real religion from the public. She claims to be “just” a Christian, but is really a Pentecostal.

Truth- Palin left the Pentecostal Church she belonged to in Alaska 6 years ago.

This seems to imply that 1) Pentacostals are not regular Christians and 2) that being a Pentacostal is bad. Can anybody explain to me why calling Palin a Pentacostal would be a slur, or a "gotcha"?

The volume of crap that is being dumped onto the scene by the garbage collectors of the Left, and the Leftist MSM should be construed by us all as proof that the Left is fearful of these two “Mavericks”, McCain and Palin should they succeed in their campaign for the Presidency/Vice Presidency.

The Left has incrementally built a government within our government. Bureaucracies are laden with Leftist sycophants. They fear the loss of POWER they have achieved over the many years. It would only take a few actions of a Conservative Congress with a Conservative President with the desire to get the job done to overcome.

The fear of becoming irrelevant is what is driving this feeding frenzy of the Left’s against Sarah Palin. They don’t fear John McCain, they fear the team.

[grey_whiskers]

Palin? Skirt?

You've just got the attention of every straight male in the blogosphere.

Cheers!

Any truth about a liberal is a lie, and any lie about a conservative is a truth.

[Anti-Bubba182]

I don’t like it either. The Swift boaters told the truth by first person testimony of people in the same type of unit as Kerry at the same time in Vietnam. The anti Palin slugs are bloggers and reporters with a political motivation only.

[wbarmy]

I think the whole argument about the Pentecostal church reference was more on what her particular pastor was preaching than about being Pentecostal. The questions were about her first pastor preaching that Alaska would be a sanctuary for Christians after the US was destroyed. There were also some questions about whether she had ever been “slain” in the Spirit.

[xuberalles]

Agreed!

[television is just wrong]

The press is liberal and liars.

Bookmarked: Good summary.

Your lies/truth could have come directly from the 500-odd “questions” that NPR (that bastion of good, liberal, nicely behaved, oh-s-sophisticated bunch of lets-all-get-lovers) listed in a (pages long) group of questions that they wanted ABC to ask.

Rough bereakout: 20% of the comments were simple insults.
5% were realistic questions, mostly on taxes and economic policies.
15% were insulting questions about international trivia/UN/they will not respect us if we don’t elect Obama.
35% were absolute hate and bile spewing towards her religion.
25% were absolute hate and bile spewing towards her (and THROUGH her children TOWARDS her using her children’s names!) about abortion/rape/Downs Syndrome/you can’t take care of both at the same time.
10% were welfare/health care (”you don’t care about poor people”) and environment/global warming extremism
