Collins: Palin a 'Moose-Murderer'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 12/06/2008 4:37:49 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Though O.J. Simpson was sentenced for robbery and related crimes yesterday, thirteen years ago he walked on a double-murder charge. That might be an isolated case, but Gail Collins apparently believes there are tens of millions of murderers roaming free in America. We call them by a different name: hunters.

Collins made her inane hunting = murder analogy in her column today in the course of taking one more gratuitous swipe at Sarah Palin. The gist of "The Senate, Snowe and Dinkytown" is that in a Senate where Democrats will fall one or two seats short of the magic 60, the few moderate Senate Republicans will play a crucial role. Collins focuses in particular on Olympia Snowe of Maine. And while wondering why McCain didn't choose her as his running mate, the columnist gets off her smear on Palin, and hunters in general [emphasis added]:

But the Left never lets you call abortion murder. That would be politically incorrect. It is properly referred to as a sacrament to Molloch.

But then again...it's also very important to note what she didn't kill...her own child.

Quote of the year.

Mrs. Palin never killed a moose according to her own statement. The now famous photograph is a shot of a Mountain Caribou, not a moose.

Sarah and her husband made a loving, Christ-like decision and it has obviously brought great love and joy into their home as they care for and are blessed by that beautiful child.

The obvious joy and love belies the entire liberal agenda, and sears the conscience of those who have killed their own, thus depriving themselves of such joy, love, and blessings.

That's really why they hate her so.

Sarah’s got my vote 2012 and I think that’s what has all the democraps running scared!

There are about 80 million more conservative voters that think the same way.

By the time Bama gets dune there may well be many more.

Oh yes, you're speaking my language and ANOTHER favorite photo (Sara, Trig and Todd--priceless). I've saved your series of photos to hard drive, they light me up when I'm down and this is no joke. I just don't know how to post photos and graphics, must take the time in FR bootcamp and get-r-done.

Thanks Jeff. I'm convinced that these fine people were raised up by "He who sits upon the circle of the earth". No, we are not to worship them but as examples to emulate, well who can argue that?

Ever eat a cheeseburger Gail? Than you’re an accessory to cow murder.

And by eating cheese she is starving a calf.

On the other hand, America just elected a Vice President who’s out-to-lunch and incoherent, so even if Sarah Palin were those things, it wouldn’t necessarily disqualify her.

Thbak you...please spread the word about Sarah and feel free to use my sites whenerve and wherever you are inclined to do so.

Also, please write your Senators and encourage everyone you know to do the same. The GOP Senate, if they have a spine, has the power to help hold up this train wreck of the Obamanation...we will have to help them find that spine.

EVERYONE PLEASE WRITE YOUR GOP SENATORS TODAY!

No, really, Gail. I’m sure Oly Snowe is a lovely person. But you’d have to be completely ignorant of politics within the GOP to think she was a better choice for John McCain’s running mate than Sarah Palin.

They have no hormones left for aggression. They could (and are by their views) be easily led to slaughter because they don't know how to be aggressive anymore.

You see that so much in today's society. It has nothing to do with meat or hormones. We are breeding the 'toughness' out of our culture.

Most people today could never handle the hardships of 50 years ago.

Like Rome......

Look up the legal definition of "murder." It's "homicide." "Homicide" requires that the victim be human. It is legally impossible to "murder" an animal that is not a human.

But hey, don't let logic interfere with emotionalism.
