Comments on: It's Palin's Party, Not McCain's

The Nation: Republican Platform Lines Up With Positions Held By Bottom Of The Ticket

[im4honesty]

It''s high time we stopped talking about pro-choice and pro-life and call this what is... an attempt by one element of society to force their beliefs on the rest of the population. The answer is really very simple, if you believe abortion is wrong, DON''T HAVE ONE!! You have absolutely no right, however, to tell others they must also believe as you do. That''s the stuff the Taliban is made of.

I didn''t say Down syndrome was caused by her obviously inconsiderate prenatal behavior but certainly at this stage while they are calling it Down syndrome the child may have multiple disabilities some of which could be caused by not eating properly, drinking and other insults due to inconsiderate behavior to the child in her womb. I specifically noted that CP is extremely high in premies.

We also have to count on this supposed diagnosis of the child but no access to medical records that demonstrate improper activity during pregnancy. In fact, I wonder if Palin is going to release her medical records like other candidates in line for the presidency. After all, she just had the baby 5 months ago and could be suffering from post partum depression as well. No straws, just wondering aloud, which of course should not be permitted about Republicans of course.

No straws here, only a woman so intent on dominating politics that it seems she may have neglected important aspects of family life including instructing her daughter on preventing unwanted pregnancies while still in high school.

WONT CARRY 4 STATES!

AMERICA HAS FOUND THEM OUT!

Talkingham, as I stated to you on another article%u2019s board, Down Syndrome is not caused by anything prenatally. It is caused by a defective egg. Stop grasping at straws that aren%u2019t there. Legit accusation would be that she decided to conceive at an advanced age.

[vastr-wcon]

Like rabid dogs, the democrat misogynists are attacking yet another woman with the same savagery they used on Hillary.

It only shows that the loony-left has NOTHING OF SUBSTANCE to OFFER - just smears and hysterical mud-slinging.

The "God D@#! America" crowd is as pathetic as it gets.

[talkingham]

Ummmm,let''s see...

She refused to gain weight during her pregnancy as the photos made in March 2008 clearly show she doesn''t appear pregnant...
Posed for the Vogue photo shoot 3 months before the baby was born, ummm couldn''t look pregnant for that....

Flew around the country giving speeches with party hacks while pregnant and the baby due at any time...
uuummm, baby born premature with Down Syndrome, probably not related or Ummmm....

It''s well known that premies are much more subject to a wide range of birth defects including cerebral palsy, guess she didn''t take that into account while not feeding herself during pregnancy, executive decision I suppose.

[horse3farm]

And Bush just released 250,000 gallons from the Strategic Oil Reserve to Citgo, the Venezuelan company, (on CNN.com) because of the Hurricane damage. Now last I checked Venezuela''s president hates Bush. And since Bush would not approve releasing oil from the Reserve for Americans, I guess Bush hates Americans.

I don''t think I''m voting at all. Both choices suck.

[interobserv]

Ummmm... lets see she ran a town, and now a state, with budgets and decisions and such.
Ummmm.... lets see Noboma has been really busy on his first term not voting in congress, not making any decisions that affect anyone, nor making any change in his party....
ummmm.... very qualified indeed. She will go far.

Hmmmm....She ran a state with less people than any county in New Jersey.
Hmmmm....She abused her power in office by firing a member of the state police involved in a messy divorce from her sister.
Hmmmm....Her and her husband were members of a seccessionist (i.e. treason) group bent on leaving the U.S.

Obama has been a community organizer, elected to WORK as an Illinois legislator and to WORK in the Senate. Respected by colleagues on both sides of the isle.
Very, very qualified indeed!!

[talkingham]

It''''s clear from photos made in March, one month before Trig Paxson Van Palin was born that Sarah Palin was more concerned about her looks than gaining the proper weight during pregnancy. Her staffers didn''t even know she was pregnant. Weight gain of the mom is crucial to the health of the infant but perhaps Palin was more concerned about her looks and photo shoot with Vogue 3 months before the baby was born. Guess she made an executive decision that may have affected the health of her child.

[kazoodan]

Oh yeah, one other thing, STEVE. Maybe none of this would be happening right now if the Republican controlled Congress had passed Clintons'' proposed Anti-terrorism legislation back in 95 and 96, much of which resembles today''s Patriot Act. Hmmmmmm?

[photogeezer]

With a 73 year old president with cancer, I don''t want a VP who thinks we are in a holy war against Islam. I was fed the same *** at a Protestant chaplain''s retreat before I went to Vietnam.

[kazoodan]

Or just maybe our military has kept al qaeda over there.... hmmmmmm. If billy would have accepted the Sudans offer of bin laden this would not be happening right now, thanks libotards.

And there you have it, folks. When you have nothing else, bring up Clinton.

[markangeloo]

Their choice
Shoot first ask questions later.
How wise is that.

Wedge issues like abortion, gun-control and gay rights continue to hold this country hostage while our jobs, companies and wealth move to communist nations like China. This year they even ran the best olympics ever and won the most gold medals. There were just too few Moms and Dads like Michael Phelp''s and Shawn Johnson''s who''s sacrifice was enough to propel their kids to the top. The rest were too disracted by mortgage failures, medical expenses,gas prices and educational budget cuts...all problems that grew during two decades of rising corporate profits and tax-cuts. China is growing twice as fast as the US. They did all this by expanding their middle-class with sustained investments in housing, healthcare, education and energy.

During the same periood, our two Bush presidents piled on the debt, owed it other countries and blindly de-regualated everything. Today, 3/4th of Fortune 500 companies don''t even pay taxes, yet they pay enormous dividends that get re-invested in foreign shores.

Wake-up America. It was never about Socialism vs. Capitalism. China has both. Its about government policies that help the middle-class help itself and that direct the private sector''s natural profit instinct to help this country rather than stealing from it. Obama''s 29 policy proposals during Democratic convetion are directionally correct. The DEMs may not accomplish more than half of them, but that is vastly better than the GOPs harping over wedge issues.

[talkingham]

If McCain is elected I wouldn''t be surprised to see Palin become President within months of the election. She was vetted by the hardcore rightwing of the party and dictated to McCain with the threat of the conservative base walking out of the convention. They want her to be president so they can have full control, Cheney will still be running things!

[interobserv]

Does anybody remember former Alaska Governor Walter Hickel? He was Secretary of the Interior during Richard Nixon''s first term. He was an environmetal as well as ethical disaster! He left office in disgrace.
I am not saying Governor Palin has the same issues, but I see valid challenges to McCain''s judgement in his selection and support of her. She has no valid environmental credentials and is a friend of Big Oil, just like Hickel! Obama/Biden are looking real good now!!

If what''s growing in the uterus is not a human being, then it has no human right to live. It''s metabolically alive, but not a person. Abortion, in this view, is morally indistinguishable from having an appendix removed, and should be available on demand everywhere to every woman for whatever reason, no matter how flimsy. But if it IS human, then it has the human right to live, and abortion--for whatever reason--is the intentional killing of a human being. That may only be done to save the life of someone else, in this case, the mother. In this view, the fact that the human being in the womb is the result of rape or incest is irrelevant. You can''t kill someone just because you don''t like the father, or feel bad for the mother.

Palin''s position is actually very consistent with her belief that life begins at conception. It is far MORE consistent than most pro-choice advocates who begrudgingly admit--if only to themselves--that a fetus IS a human being, but think that the mother should still have the %u201Cright to choose%u201D to kill it. The argument for choice is only legitimate if one disbelieves the humanity of the fetus. But if it''s human, allowing it to be killed for any reason other than saving the mother''s life is, pure and simple, first-degree murder.

[brownbuilder]

Mcain could care less about the United States with his so called patriotism selecting a woman for vp just for woman votes who has 5 kids (one with dow syndrome) and a granchild.Who is going to care for these children while she is running around the world shouting pro life.She also has no respect for herself or other woman. You heard about the radio station she was being interviewed on when the host called then Gov Green of Alaska a *** and cancer victim and all pro life Palin did was laugh laugh laugh. Is this a woman you want as VP no respect for her fellow sister.

[brownbuilder]
