I can articulate the reasons for her perceived superiority, but it’s not the reasons they will acknowledge, like being a good dog fighter. People like that aren’t true conservatives, it is just a ticket to success for them. If they were real conservatives they would care about ethics. And when I say people, I mean Palin. I am not blaming those who have fallen for her sch-tick, just trying to wake them up.
Where is your proof of ethics issues? Just like your baseless charge of plagiarism in college, if you don't have facts to back it up, shut it. You should know better than to make stuff up. Nobody cares about your 'intuition'.
So who is a 'true' conservative to you? Please describe and give us an example.
I honestly don’t know that I can agree with you there. Other than that she strikes me as an opportunist, I can’t say that I’ve seen anything to indicate that she’s been found to be ethically lacking.
The Letterman thing is a perfect example. I think everyone knows whether they’ll admit it or not, that her use of the word “rape” was pure hyperbole in response to a poor joke. But it was just that, it was hyperbole. It wasn’t slander, it wasn’t fabricated, or anything that I’d consider unethical. It was pure hyperbole, and she was opportunist enough to seize it for effect.
Same for Bristol. You’ll never convince me that her sudden conversion to abstinence wasn’t a ploy to make mama look good. I wouldn’t call it unethical. Some teenager, not seeing through the obvious might even listen to her and some good may come of it. What it is though, is political expediency.
What puts me off about Palin is that to be honest, I just don’t think she’s that bright. She’s certainly not the caliber that we want to lead our country.
