Palin: Obama Began His Political Career In Terrorist’s Living Room ["Associated Press is wrong,”]
cbsnews.com ^ | October 05, 2008 | Scott Conroy

Before her campaign plane took off for a Sunday fundraiser here, CBS News asked Sarah Palin to respond to an analysis by the Associated Press that concluded her attempts to establish a friendship between Barack Obama and Weather Underground member William Ayers were “unsubstantiated and carried a racially tinged subtext that John McCain himself may come to regret.”

"The Associated Press is wrong,” Palin said. “The comments are about an association that has been known but hasn't been talked about, and I think it’s fair to talk about where Barack Obama kicked off his political career, in the guy's living room.”

Oh-for-crying-out-loud, I sure do agree with you!! If this isn’t interesting to the American people, they sure are paying a lot of attention to it. Really funny, almost hilarious.

The MSM keeps saying that the Ayers thing is not an "issue important to the American people."

Oh, were the shoe to be on the other foot(republican). It would be news 24/7 ala Mark Foley and Macaca....

Ayres, Rezko, Wright, Phlager(sp), et al are a target rich environment. Sarah is the right sharpshooter to draw aim....

“AP left this out of their news item on this:

“The Associated Press is wrong,” Palin said. “

And I thought that her comments were so succinct that the press couldn’t mangle them.

That’ll teach those pantie waisted Ivy League types to mess with a woman who hunts for her food.

I have waited a long time for the Republicans to stand up and say, we are not going to take this Shiite no mo.

racially tinged subtext...

"Racist" is the Obama campaign's "palomino" safe-word.

You know, I read the article and I failed to find the racially tinged subtext wrt Ayers. I guess when they’re blindly flailing around for a retort the race card is the universal default accusation for the libs.

If these guys were to get their wish what would America look like in 10 years?

The trick is that Governor Palin has crossed racial lines to marry a guy with much more than average Eskimo lineage. Obama didn't get further than the Reverend Wright who undoubtedly saddled him with Michelle.

The guy is hardly a rainbow warrior (if you dig).

So what I read in the article is that Palin should - according to the AP - apologize for telling the truth?

Palin ping.

Obama associates with Ayers, Rezko, and Wright, but Obama thinks it's a sin for McCain to associate with Bush!

“Racially tinged” — there you go again, O, bringing up race when nobody else does. We’re talking about your terrorist pals. Terrorism does not know race.

Obama’s minister was an apologist for terrorists, and to me that’s just as interesting.

AP is melting down. Using the race card when this is about BO’s terrorist friend

Just wait and see the press' "hysteria" when she starts talking about this that the press has swept under the rug:

DNC steps in to silence lawsuit over Obama birth certificate
