People who call her an “Enemy of the USA,” “Whore,” “Stupid,” “Less coherent than a monkey,” “Airhead,” “Failed mother,” etc. are likely candidates to be classified as “haters.”
It's really not that difficult to decipher. “Not feeling Sarah's up to the job” is a criticism worthy of debate; “Sarah Palin is an enemy of the USA” is not criticism, it is hatred.
That applies to any good Conservative. If someone were to try and post that Jim DeMint was an “enemy of the USA” for endorsing Mitt Romney and co-chairing Lindsey Graham's Senate campaign, I would also call them a DeMint “Hater.”
Funny, I've looked at all your recent posts and you seem to take ALL Sarah Palin criticism as 'hatred'. I agree there's a handful of insane Sarah Palin hating loons on FR, the funny thing I've been on the same endorsement threads as you and I've seen about 10X as many "I'm disappointed with Sarah's endorsement and don't know if she's presidential material" posts compared to "Sarah Palin is RINO scum and must be defeated at all costs" posts.
Are we viewing the same threads? Because while you cite a dozen or so fantantical Palin haters, I can probably cite hundreds of rational "I disagree with Sarah's endorsement" posts, such as my own response to Palin's Fiorina endorsement.
A few loudmouth nuts on FR does not mean the ENTIRE forum is overrun with "haters" and "purists" who call everyone on the planet a "RINO" Indeed, almost all the people I've meet who truly despise Sarah are Ron Paulites (and they're hated her since the day she arrived on the national scene)
There are plenty of people with a mostly conservative record who have been subject to as much or even more hostility as Sarah Palin on this forum. You should have seen the threads about "socialist" Mike Huckabee back in 2008. (Funny they didn't think he was a "socialist" four years earlier when he headlined the FR inaugural ball). Chris Christie is now the darling of FR, but just a few months ago was subject to far more "he's RINO scum" attacks than Palin ever was during his gubernatoral campaign, and 90% of it was entirely baseless if you went by "past record". Are you just waking up to the fact there are some "anyone who fails to agree with me 100% of the time deserves to be shot" posters on this forum?
The purist nuts are an annoyance on this forum, but IMO they're outnumbered the other extreme, the "anyone with an R next to their name deserves our support, even if they're more liberal than many Democrats" mindset. I'm surprised this mindset continues to permeate so many FR threads even after JimRob purged the Rudy Giuliani cheerleaders two years ago. Here in Illinois, we have a "Republican" nominee to the left of Hillary on abortion and to the left of Obama on the enviroment, and yet we're still outnumbered by the "you HAVE to vote for Kirk because Mark Kirk is with us when it counts and the best we can get in a blue state" cheerleaders on Mark Kirk threads.
Titan, you really need to grow a thicker skin if you've been on FR this whole time and never noticed there's a "people who agree with me 95% of the time should be lynched" mindset with some posters. Palin is hardly the first conservative to be subject to that abuse, and she certainly hasn't gotten the worst of it.

Really? It took you another post to clarify what you meant. If you want to make it easier for us to decipher what you mean, perhaps you shouldn’t make broad sweeping generalizations about Palin haters at the end of a list that includes *many* comments that could never even approach such.
Can't we get through one damn thread without Sarah's name coming up? The only way Sarah relates to this at all is that she endorsed Fiorina and Tom McClintock doesn't. There, that's it.
S.O.S. -- guilty -- Sick of Sarah!
