The woman is a calamity and a dangerous liar: Palin says Obama is 'palling around' with terrorists
CARSON, California (AFP) — Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin took the offensive Saturday, charging Democratic White House hopeful Barack Obama with "palling around with terrorists."

Speaking early Saturday at a fundraiser in Englewood, Colorado, Palin told supporters Obama "is someone who sees America it seems as being so imperfect that he's palling around with terrorists who would target their own country."

20. Not bad, but I want to see them CRUSH her for that stupid comment
Obama camp's reply:

"Governor Palin’s comments, while offensive, are not surprising, given the McCain campaign’s statement this morning that they would be launching Swift boat-like attacks in hopes of deflecting attention from the nation’s economic ills. In fact, the very newspaper story Governor Palin cited in hurling her shameless attack made clear that Senator Obama is not close to Bill Ayers, much less "pals," and that he has strongly condemned the despicable acts Ayers committed 40 years ago, when Obama was eight. What’s clear is that John McCain and Sarah Palin would rather spend their time tearing down Barack Obama than laying out a plan to build up our economy."

It's a good start, but I want to see something much harder and much stronger about Palin's out of line and over the top statements. The idea that she thinks for one second that she can get away with saying something so outrageous needs to be permanently removed.

26. Someone in the comments on that blog brings up a good point - there may be no October surprise.
Edited on Sat Oct-04-08 11:14 PM by LoZoccolo
Good news for all of us Obama supporters. It seems there are no Rovean type October surprises against the Obamas. If this is all they have, they lose.


This is after all recycled from months ago, as if there isn't much ammo left.

13. I had one idiot at work tell me
he was going to vote for her because she sounded 'like a youper' (Northern MI above WI). Now if that don't beat all as a reason to vote for someone....but then again, I live close to Detroit so NOTHING surprises me anymore.

I just want to leave this stupid state and go somewhere there are sane rational THINKING people.

7. Ya, this hyperbole will play real well.
Edited on Sat Oct-04-08 09:05 PM by Hansel
This so over-the-top that no sane person is going to take her seriously. They've completely jumped the shark.

The image Obama presents is so far from what she is portraying. At the same time she acts like an idiotic fool (not that I mean to insult idiotic fools). She has no credibility or standing to make this accusation with any plausibility. It's a non-starter with anyone who isn't on the far right and she continues to make herself just look more bizarre and foolish.

The media will skewer her for this because she has made enemies out of them. She really has very few people to carry her water. Sean and Rush aren't enough.

12. I just saw her the news telling this lie
Right now I'm not liking what I'm feeling. Something about her having the nerve to attack Obama really pisses me off. And she seems so at ease with it - like it's second nature to her. Nov. 4 can't get here soon enough.:mad:

16. I assume Obama has been holding back the picture of McCain hugging Bush.
You know the one. McCain's bad side showing. His eyes closed, a look of genuine affection on his face, like a toddler hugging his mama. Only it is McCain hugging Bush. And Bush has a look on his face that says something like "See me! For I am mighty! See my vanquished foe clinging at my breast like a sucking baby. I am the great George W. Bush, and this pathetic, utterly defeated little creature is...my good friend John McCain."

Obama should just have an ad with nothing but that picture.

As despicable as her comment was, somehow the use of that phrase jumped out at me!

29. My, My! Sarah the Shithead reads the NYTimes?
Guess someone must have put it in front of her. Perhaps she should have read the entire article-she would know that Obama doesn't "pal around" (I haven't heard that expression since I was in high school, about a hundred years ago) with Ayers. Unlike Sarah-who SLEEPS with a man that believes that Alaska should secede from the US. Now who sounds like they are "palling around" with terrorists?

most significantly.
