There is a very general trend. I have yet to hear of Obamas family attacked with the zeal and vigor of Palins PDS folk though.

This cannot be a joke because jokes are actually funny.

Biden is beyond stupid and the only one who can come close to him would be a fellow Democrat Maxine Waters. But she does have a LOT of competition for rabidly stupid from the Democrat side of the aisle.

Palin is not even on the same playing field with this level of stupidity.

But hey, if you want FUNNY stupid, here's a video of what is stupid and funny:


I have visited 57 states with two more to go not including Alaska. Now THAT is funny AND stupid.

It's petty nonsense between the D and R. It just needs to stop "Oh, I'm not going to listen you because you're a R and you don't know anything." Then comes the "Oh, no but you, you are the one that is a D and costing this country its patriotism." If we all meet in the middle and listen (I realize this is asking to find the Titanic in the Bermuda Triangle) to what each other have to say and agree on a common goal together, this country would be a better place.

Correction: trashing is making things up about a person because you disagree with their views but cannot debate them.

With Obama, it isn't "trashing", it is a statement of FACT: $1.8 trillion budget deficit without a single debate on how to pay for it; 3,000,000 jobs lost and counting even AFTER his farcical campaign rhetoric his programs would CREATE 5,000,000 high paying jobs; NOT closing Guantanamo after claiming he would close it..... the list is LONG.

These are FACTS and warrant the JUSTIFIED criticism of his efforts and programs.

What is happening to Palin is indeed “trashing” her because she is a Conservative Woman who had the audacity to challenge the Leftwing drive-by media.

The same can be said about Libruls and Leftists attacks on Rove, Bush and Cheney. They didn’t contain any facts or substance; most were mere hyperbolic left wing rants using lies, distortions and insults containing nothing of substance but just resembled whiney ranting tirades.

No need to thank me, just trying to help you comprehend what words mean.

Right wingers only get there opinion out on FOX, and then FOX doesn't accept any other opinion. Then every other new network is hard core liberal. Any attack on Obama did not get as much air time and was quickly over come by positive praising off Obama. The media is biased, mostly in favor of liberal left wingers. Palin got it much worse than Obama could even dream about.

If she can't handle the media now, can she really handle dealing with the likes of Putin and that jack-ass in Iran?
