Palin on the Leakers: 'Those Guys Are Jerks'
The Weekly Standard ^ | 11/07/08 | John McCormack

Posted on 11/07/2008 4:40:56 PM PST by DocT111

The Anchorage Daily News reports that Palin chatted with the press today in the lobby of the governor's office:

The governor talked about her future role in national politics, her rocky relationship with Democrats and the anonymous criticism from McCain staffers who claimed she went on a shopping spree with Republican Party money and didn't know that Africa is a continent, rather than a country.

"If there are allegations based on questions or comments I made in debate prep about NAFTA, about the continent versus the country when we talk about Africa there, then those were taken out of context. And that's cruel, it's mean spirited, it's immature, it's unprofessional and those guys are jerks if they came away with it taking things out of context then tried to spread something on national news," Palin said.

So the leaks WERE from inside the McCain camp. They are spinning that it came from 0’s side. Right, they had spies who knew what was said during debate prep. Liars!

The problem with McCain and his ilk is he DOESN’T have a rocky relationship with Democrats.

The leakers are probably angry young men who thought they would have good jobs in the McCain Administration and are looking for someone to blame. Blame the economy, blame Obama, but not Palin.

Why is it when a strong woman comes along everyone is out to make her fail? These attacks make me sick.
In the 90’s I ran for a local office against a man who was a school principal. I was amazed at how many catty women came out against me. Women are sometimes our worst enemies.

My wife also says she prefers having male friends or working with men in the office. She says women can be very catty, vicious and petty.

Don’t you worry, Madame Governor, about the country/continent thing with Africa. Your sister state Hawaii apparently believed in 1961 that “African” was a race!

“Why is it when a strong woman comes along everyone is out to make her fail? These attacks make me sick.”

She has two strikes against her, first she is a conservative so all the Dems hate her. Then she’s not an insider so the ivy league elitists cannot stand her.

IMO those are two qualities that make her a better alternative than anyone else we saw.

Even if every word was true and in context (which I doubt), THEY’RE STILL JERKS.

I hope they’re exposed.
