Agree 100%. The stuff they’ve been forced to go through, simply because they dared to care about this country and shared a patriotic view that emphasizes independence and self-reliance, has been sickening and unconscionable. There’s no justification for it, despite the fact that much is offered. Todd Palin is indeed a man among men for the reason you suggest.
Pinged Windflier and Onyx as a point of interest.
A lot of people (general comment) wonder why some of us are so strident in our defense of the Palins. Aside from the fact that we believe strongly in what she represents and her thusfar stated positions, a lot of it has to do with the BS the media/GOP/Dems have and continue to put them through. When we see more of the same right here on FR and other sites, we do get very defensive. Our own supposedly ‘conservative’ people slinging the very same crap as the MSM? What gives?? To what end?
I have said repeatedly that She ain’t perfect and of course she should be questioned. I have a few questions myself. But just look at some of the crap that goes on on these threads. all the chicken**** “trademark” comments, claims over the entire family’s credibility, rehashed debunked nonsense over and over and over... and of course the now zotted Pissant type thing. How utterly Vile does this need to get?
I look at that kind of thing and ask how “any” fair minded person, supporter or not, can NOT get defensive. And heaven forbid a “Pailinsta” question Bachmann over hiring a RINO pit bull to run her campaign or Perry over his border/guardisil/Muslim issues. All legit issues, but somehow that’s bad and rabid cultish behavior.
And all this stupidity takes place on a site that polled 87% for Palin and whose owner calls “Palin Country?” Do these people normally walk into someone’s house and crap on their floor because they feel entitled to do so? Because with some of the comments, that’s exactly what they are in essence, doing. The lack of respect to the Palins as human beings, and to JR, to me, is disgusting. I wish someone would explain their “logic” to me because I sure don’t see it.
