Sarah Palin on "Small and Bitter" McCain Aides Trashing Her
The Weekly Standard ^ | 11/06/08 | John McCormack

Posted on 11/06/2008 4:26:17 PM PST by DocT111

Byron York, Jen Rubin, and Michelle Malkin all have smart takes on the McCain aides' smearing of Sarah Palin. The Anchorage Daily News has a couple videos of Sarah Palin talking to the press after arriving back in Alaska, and it looks like she's more than capable of defending herself, if she thought it was worth her time. Regarding the leaks against her, Palin said:

“If they’re an unnamed source, then that says it all. I won’t comment on anybody’s gossip, or allegations that are based on anonymous sources. That’s kind of a small, evidently bitter type of person who would anonymously charge something foolish like that, that I perhaps didn’t know an answer to a question.

“So until I know who was talking about it, I won’t have a comment on false allegations.”

"The fact is, McCain/Palin...Lost. And so shall we be if we take out our grievance on such trivial matters."

And the reason for that was.....McCain. Palin is the only reason the defeat wasn't a hell of a lot worse. And the incessant Palin-bashing that is going on in the media and among a bunch of assholes here is so far over the top as to be unbelievable. Why don't you bashers go an fawn over Kathleen Parker???

Fox who?

Murdoch is too clever by half; hope he enjoys it when he goes out of business like the rest of the lamesteam media. Just throw that credibility away like a bad suit.

Palin is wonderful. We love her, and support her 100%. She is a force in conservative politics, and make no mistake. The left fears her, and I love it!

Right. And that starts now.

In the meantime, We have an anti-american socialist in the highest office of this Country.

And we MUST deal with it.

In two years, we have another House and Senate race, we vote for the USA.

In the meantime, Obama MAY be able to appoint activists to the Supreme Court!

What are we gonna do to stop THAT!?

When a rumor hits the light of day it can be debunked.

Only people who believe leftwing and “moderate” envious GOP crap.

The nattering nabobs already didn’t like her, real conservatives still like her.

Ya, he learned how to be a "wimp" while sitting in a stinking North Vietnamese POW camp getting the hell kicked out of him for 6 years.

WRONG.

He learned it as a United States Senator who can't seem to decide which party he wants to be in.

I agree, I agree...

But we need to focus on reality, not on grievance!

Obama must be stopped in his tracks! If we're busy (like a bunch of frickin’ liberals) bemoaning what we lost, how it was lost...we will miss acting on what is NOT lost!

Do you understand what I'm saying?

No, it isnt made up. Nicholle Wallace is the McCain twit running this crap out and requesting anonymity when it is reported.

A lot of things can happen in four years. I may even be forced by Bozoma-ians to put a windmill in my front yard. Sarah certainly didn't deserve what she got from the 'image makers'.

Wait for SNL ratings to tank. They'll be screaming for her return. Can they keep Tina on ice for four years?

Also, the White Crib on Pennsylvania Ave may get a face lift. Still, Sarah would look good in the Cotton Garden.

Please add me to the ping list for that. Anyone who bashes Sarah is on the opposite side of the fence from me.

We have to let the members of the Senate confirmation committee know that giving an approval to a liberal Supreme Court Justice will cost them their next election.

(Or, get the dirt on them. That works from time to time.)

O’Reilly just justified spreading the rumors because they are “news” .. unsourced rumors that trash and degrade a sitting Governor who ran for national office are not news. Let Carl bring forward his sources, then it’s news.

Biden: “FDR addressed the nation on T.V. in 1929!”
