If you dumb-ass liberals had simply let her go back to Alaska and do her job she wouldn't be running around the country ON all those podiums! But oh no...you couldn't DO that...could you! You had to be poor winners and bring all those frivolous lawsuits against her to force her into quitting. Then you turn around and whine about her getting national attention? Anyone who does THAT is "kind of an idiot", Joe!
I didn't bring any lawsuits against her. Most of those lawsuits were brought by people in her state who didn't like her doing shit like leaking personnel records or abusing travel privilages or trying to get relatives fired from their jobs.
And seriously, all the lawyers you have on the right, and none of them would have taken her cases pro bono?
What ever happened to the "Party of Personal Responsibility"?
Most of the lawsuits were brought by people in her State...in fact most were brought by one woman who was upset because Palin hadn't rewarded her with a position in the government she thought she had coming to her. What's interesting about that however is how THAT vindictive loser was financially supported by liberal groups from outside of Alaska.
If a governor bailed on that, then how would we expect her to react if our country was under attack?
That's not a shot specifically at Palin per se, but I want someone who isn't going to buckle under pressure when we need the President the most. I'd say that about anyone, Republican or Democrat. Quitting as governor because of harassing lawsuits doesn't give confidence that they have the fortitude to deal with al-Qaeda.
What exactly would you have had Palin DO, Toro? She was being subjected to a barrage of frivolous lawsuits...dozens of lawsuits whose only purpose were to bankrupt her and her family. She had been sued so that she couldn't accept donations to pay for a defense of those lawsuits. That was going to continue until the Palin's were bankrupt. So would you have had Palin simply let herself be "bled out" by this tactic? Would you have allowed that if it were YOU that was under this kind of sleazy attack?
Where is your outrage at a group of people so vindictive...so spiteful...that despite WINNING an election decided that the only thing that would satisfy them would be the complete destruction of the person who had the "audacity" to run against Barack Obama?
We need good people to run for political office in this country. Put aside partisan politics for a moment and think long and hard about the message that was sent by the behavior of a small group of political "zealots" following the 2008 election and then ask yourself if YOU would want to run for high office in this nation if a lifetime of harassment, win or lose, would await you if you did?
