Palin Blasts Emanuel for Calling Dem Idea 'Retarded'

Re: Actual link to rush calling dems, retards

:lol: so you went all over the internet and you found it on huffington post? :ssst:


sucks for you...



You are missing his context, it has been explained. the point is, Palin can call out whoever she wants, this whole notion that she is a hypocrite for not calling out Rush, is weak sauce and more anti-palin lunacy. :shrug:

yesss, in no way am i defending huffington post, but i was certainly going to not post it just because of the source, and out of context? HOW? in what way can it be considered a different context if not worse?

For rahm to consider an ideal f***** retarded is wrong, but hes attacking an idea

for Limbaugh to attack democrats as a whole as being retards, its much worse because hes actually attacking someone, and in the end, hes personally attacking special need groups of people (like the kids who went to the whitehouse for the apology) as calling them a "retard summit" how is that not to be considered much worse? and in my eyes, pure evil...

more-over, i have yet to see your position, are you defending limbaugh?

or just attacking democrats because they dont like hypocrisy (especially BLATANT hypocrisy)

I think limbaughs comments were retarded hyperbole. :shrug:


However, I also get what he was doing, he was imitating rhambo and running with it. He does this all the time and the anti-rush types get all uppity about it.


last one was barak the magic negroe.... Which was hilarious the way the left attempted to take out of context.

If I do not like it, yes it is my own fault. If you are calling me those things to evoke a response, or to be mean, or some other negative reason, you are responsible for your words.

It's important to make the distinction between "cause" and "fault" In your scenario, the cause of my being upset is your words, but I still am at fault if I am upset. Likewise, if I have a positive reaction to your insults(say it makes me more determined to prove you wrong), I get the credit.

The hypocrisy is that Rahm must apologize (and does at his "retard summit") while rush is not just excused by palin for his crude use, BUT DEFENDED!
this is why "palin is a f***** retard"

1. please link to Palin even being aware of comments.


And why can she call out whoever she wants? because her child is special needs? at what point has she politically used this position for a betterment of policies on special needs bills, umm never... she uses it as a political platform.
Click to expand...


Look at this thread, its filled with people only calling out who they want. :shrug:



Why is rush limbaugh excused from even an apology? lord knows we will never ask him for his job, (FOX gets waaaaay too much money for him being on the air) HE must be held accountable for his mis-information due to the fact that FOX news can be considered a "reliable news-source" and due to that, they must hold there own pundents accountable, whats hypocritical, is that FOX news will not, and we all know it, in fact, HE WILL BE DEFENDED...
Click to expand...


How do you even know he is being excused. We aren't even in agreement in his context...


*note: Limbaugh is not on FOX nor is he affiliated with FOX. :prof

I don't know if there is just some kind of cognitive dissonance going on here, or I am just doing a piss poor job of being clear. I am sure she loves her kid. However, if she was genuinely offended by Emanuel's calling part of the Democratic Base "F---ing Retards", then why did she not condemn Rush's calling a meeting between the Whitehouse and mental disability advocates a "retard summit"?

That was even more offensive to those with mental disabilities than Emanuel's offensive comments were. Yet, she did not call for Rush to apologize. She did not ask him if he "had no decency". She did not ask for his resignation. So basically, one can only conclude that once again, Sarah Palin was just using her special needs kid to club her opponents with.

She probably also figures that it's not worth it to call Rush out or Levi Johnston for his remarks about the Palin family. She knows how the media would run with that. She's under the gun enough as it is, not to add more fuel to the fire.

If you guys can't see that Palin is nothing but opportunistic white trash that constantly whores her special needs out to club her political opponents with, then you are a bunch of F---ing Retards.

Also, that joke I made earlier in the thread about "F---ing Retard: What Todd does to Sarah on Friday nights" was funny.

I'm done. :mrgreen:
Click to expand...

I can see that she's an opportunist like every other would-be or wannabee Presidential candidate. I just wouldn't call her white trash. My idea of white trash and yours do not coincide. A woman who was governor of an American state does not qualify to be white trash.

I guess you have to have the kind of absolutely tasteless humor I have to find it funny. Also, when is Rahm planning on apologizing to all the Mother F--kers of the world?

Maybe when he stops using those two words.
 
SouthernDemocrat said:
Ok, we get it. The leader of the Republican Party and Conservative Movement should not be held to the same standards as the Whitehouse Chief of Staff. Thats a good point.
Click to expand...

That is obvious that the present administration does not properly vet out any of its staff. Take all the income tax evaders that are now paid staff. If that kind of oversight had occurred within the Bush administration, the press would have been all over it. Everybody should be held to the same standards, no matter their political affiliation.

because palin personally excused him as using "satire"
Click to expand...



I agree with her, as I heard the segment in whole myself. That's at least two of us.


Now I disagree with palin, it was bad satire, and not his best work, but unless you can prove she is giving rush a pass, not simply holding a different opinion then there is not much to this imo.

ughhh its so disgusting how shes defended. The previous post has it SPOT ON, how can someone refer to a meeting between Rahm and the mentally handicapped as a retard summit, and not offend palin (in fact she encourages it as SATIRE) when someone says "f***** retarded" though, she goes ape **** and brings her son all in the mix, to use him as a TOOL, for her GAIN!!!! this is sickening, and the worse part, your defense of her as if shes not just being hypocritical, and in my view, extremely offensive to the mentally handicapped, my question, has she no decency?
 
SouthernDemocrat said:
Which post? The one where you asked if there was "a difference between a nigger and a black person". It's a flawed comparison. I made the observation that Sarah Palin is white trash. That is not the same thing as calling a black person the n-word. Its more comparable to calling an in city gangster, a thug.

What is it when black people call each other the N word? I'll answer it for you. It's the same as them calling each other black trash.

Tell me, what has palin ever done that you have praised?


defended? I have been critical of her, I am just not a mouth foaming anti-palin ghoul that you see crapping all over DP with the most idiotic threads in the world on this chick.



This whole feigned outrage thing, is rather transparent.... :Shrug:




I heard the segment, I know how rush works, Just like the magic negro parody, you all take it out of context.



It was bad parody, and if she's not offended by I would think you would afford her the same benefit of a doubt that you hold that obama doesnt think white people are inherently racist like his grammama.....

Sure, well I am White and I consider Palin to be White Trash with money. So you have a point there. As to your earlier assertion that she could not be white trash because she was a governor of a state (that she quit because she could not hack it), well I would submit that proves nothing. Jesse Ventura was the governor of a state that is several times larger than Alaska is in both population and its economy. So yes, white trash has made it to the governors office before. ;)
 
MyOwnDrum said:
This is dumb. We can't even use the word 'retarded' to describe a mentally retarded person anymore because people use it as slang. Now Palin has to go and make a big to do over one of her political opponents using the term 'retarded' idiomatically to describe what he thought was a dumb (which originally meant 'mute') So, I guess the word retarded is totally out of bounds and offensive?

Palin just wants to be in the news again, she's an attention junkie I think.

And her supporters will swallow it whole. It's really quite amazing. It's like there was a group of dolts in reserve that were too stupid even for Limbaugh or Beck or Coulter, and only Palin could win them over.

The thing is if she wants to get elected she has to win over independents like me and democrats on the fence. Her negativity, attacks and childish behavior just doesn't work. She needs to tell us what she is going to do about social security, the deficit, government spending, what programs will she eliminate, healthcare and energy.
 
do you know doug wilder, superstar dem governor of VA, the first african american ever elected chief exec of one of our states or commonwealths?

wilder's been warning, however in wilderness

he actually BACKED mcdonnell in that republican's EIGHTEEN POINT win in wilder's most key state in the nation

in politico today wilder calls for a serious shakeup of the administration team

that'd be rahm, holder, geithner, gibbs, napolitano...

the most incompetent crew ever to comfort a chief exec

obama's "west wing is filled with people who are in their jobs because of their chicago connections," worries wilder

"one problem is that they do not have sufficient experience at governing at the executive branch level, the deeper problem is that they are not listening to the people"

"hearing is one thing, listening is another"

"people will rightly hold Obama accountable, obama must in turn hold the people on his own team accountable"

"Unless changes are made at the top, by the top, when the time comes for voters to show how they really feel about Obama, his policies and the messages he sends directly or through the people around him, the president will discover that Virginia, New Jersey and Massachusetts were not just temporary aberrations but, rather, timely expressions of voters who always show that they are ahead of the politicians."

Right here folks we have a perfect example of the typical Palin supporter. Notice the complete lack of grammar in the post. No capitals, and some kind of an attempt at wit that is made by putting everything into one line statements, even though they would still be complete nonsense if they actually were assembled into a paragraph.

Tell me Prof, do you by chance regularly wear t-shirts with a wolf depicted on them?
