Sarah Palin on Martin Bashir comments: ‘I move on and I charge forth’
CNN ^ | November 24, 2013 | Ashley Killough

Sarah Palin responded publicly for the first time Sunday on the nasty comments thrown her way by MSNBC host Martin Bashir, who later apologized for saying she deserved degrading punishment.

"Everybody in life takes shots," the former Alaska governor said on "Fox News Sunday." "You have a decision to make when you take a shot. Are you going to become bitter or better? In a case like this, you know, I don't have to accept his words - his vile, evil comments. So they don't have to affect me. I move on and I charge forth."

Palin said if he had verbally attacked someone who's less high-profile - like a child or someone without a vocal platform like hers – only then would the former governor have fought back....

Between the lines Sarah promises Bashir:

“If my husband sees you, he will rearrange your ugly Mohammedan face.”

I loved it when she said if anyone wants to call and apologize to her personally, they should soeak to Todd or one of her kids first and give them the message before they get to her, and hear what they have to say about it.
I take it Todd is none too thrilled with marty the basher.

Sarah's Response Ping!

"You have a decision to make when you take a shot. Are you going to become bitter or better? In a case like this, you know, I don't have to accept his words - his vile, evil comments. So they don't have to affect me. I move on and I charge forth."

That is why Sarah is my role model and better person than I ever will be.

I would have gone and seen him in person and our altercation would have ended with a T-Square embedded in his chest.

Poignant Sarah.

Had to look the man up to see what he looks like. I found this short bio: Martin Bashir
Journalist
Martin Bashir is a British journalist, currently a political commentator for MSNBC, hosting Martin Bashir, and a correspondent for NBC’s Dateline NBC. Wikipedia
Born: January 19, 1963 (age 50), Wandsworth, London, United Kingdom
Nationality: British
Height: 5’ 6” (1.68 m)
Spouse: Deborah Bashir
Education: King's College London

His 5'6” height may be why he is a bully!

Or his Pakistani/Muslim upbringing. Funny they didn’t mention that in his biography.

Obama and Pelosi haven’t called Sarah Palin to show they stand with her against vile rhetoric yet?

Boehner hasn’t brought forth a resolution in the house denouncing this vile attack on Sarah Palin yet?

Huh.

Don’t sweat the small stuff, or reward petty jerks!

This must be one of Sarah’s rules of life.

I would've just thrown him on the floor and sat on him. He'd remember that if he lived to be 115.

I love her too. But I finally figured out why my 30 year old agrees with the media that she is completely stupid. Sara Palin doesn’t speak like a politician. She forgoes the buzz words and catch phrases. She’s homespun, earthy, and a the true definition of a citizen politician. And the media uses this to paint her as stupid. Sadly, there are a lot of people who buy into this, my kid included.

Palin has balls of steel. Bashir is a eunuch.

Amazing, is it not, that this supposedly “dumb” woman out thinks and out classes all those tv faces.

Perhaps, just perhaps...they are not quite as smart as they believe they are.
