That’s very good.
Start a thread calling all who disagree with you and ‘army of apologists’ and therefore your position MUST be the right one, because everyone who doesn’t agree with you is inferior.
The powers that be in Ithaca have taught you well.
Thanks for proving my point. Rather than address the article's arguments and explain how they are mistaken. You went immediately for the "you're an out of touch liberal."
The simple fact of the matter is that I think Palin is great. I was an early advocate of her for McCain's VP slot, in fact.
However, there's a difference between support and enabling. Unless Palin comes out soon with an announcement that either (a) demonstrates she's taking on a new national role [ex: head of RNC or US Senate run]; or (b) makes clear that she's retiring from politics to be with her family [which is a perfectly legitimate decision], her decision is a baffling one. And it ill serves both her and the cause to pretend otherwise.
Bump.
To be fair, Palin’s supporters tend to paint her Republican critics as either closet liberals or elitists.
