Palin dishonesty on her Obama queries
Palin dishonesty on her Obama queries
Posted October 8, 2008 10:30 AM

When you're questioning someone's honesty you might want to be truthful about what you're doing when you're called on it. It would just seem to be the less hypocritical path.

But that's evidently not what happened when Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin came back in her campaign plane last night to take questions from reporters, the first time she's done so in a month.

ABC News' "Political Radar" blog reports that Palin continued the line of attack she has used in recent days on the campaign trail, raising questions about Sen. Barack Obama's association with William Ayers, the former leader of the 1960s radical Weathermen group.

Specifically, she questioned Obama's truthfulness about his tie to Ayers, then denied she was doing so, which it seems would seem to automatically raise questions about her adherence to truth.

~snip~

When she said "I think it kinda peeks into his ability to tell us the truth on, not only on association but perhaps other things also" is that not questioning his honesty?

Why she couldn't just admit that she was questioning Obama's truthfulness only she knows.

But it's obvious that when you suggest that someone's lying, as she clearly did, that's a moment when you might want to be scrupulously honest yourself.

1. I can't wait until Palin the idiot...
...is sent back to Alaska as majorly damaged goods...never to be heard
from again.

It is bizarre to hear such a third-rate, not-so-bright hack criticize Joe
Biden and Barack Obama. It's like listening to Jessica Simpson
lecturing Meryl Streep on improving her acting techniques.

Palin doesn't realize that she lacks the knowledge and credibility to
run in those circles--let alone lambaste them during her campaign
of scripted zingers.

I am ashamed by her--as a woman, as a soccer mom, as a PTA member and
as an American.

3. Baring false witness is one of the big 10; she's a phony little 'c' christian and she's too...
personally conceited to know it which may fall into pride being one of 7 deadly' in black 4" heels. She's a liar and a mess of a personage. A Frankenstein monster of opposing contradictions and so a perfect shill for oil & gas that actually thinks the resources of Alaska are Alaska's and have nothing to do with The United States; 'hungry world markets' indeed! She and her first dude can't wait to secede so they can sell energy like a private players then all her dunder-headed AIP flock of Dodo' can get free checks in the mail for being anti semitic bigots.
