She delivers with tenacity and audacity, even if she IS lying.
I've been smoked by liars now and again.
Especially if they're good looking. (She's very convincing.)
Now I'm NOT falling for her crap, if you coulda heard me last night I was hollering at her during her speech ......"Liar!" The speech told us a lot about her.
It told us that she can distort the facts and deliver mean-spirited zingers with the best of them. It told us that if Rush Limbaugh or Ann Coulter ever need a stand-in, she'd be a great pick.
It told us that she can be condescending and dismissive of the real work Barack Obama did helping real people on the South Side of Chicago. It told us that she can uphold the long Republican tradition of lying about Democratic tax cuts—even though Obama's plan would give Americans a bigger break than McCain's.
But the speech—written by one of President Bush's speechwriters—didn't tell us the truth about Sarah Palin's extremist positions.
>Palin wants to teach creationism in public schools.
>Palin has close ties to Big Oil. Her inauguration was even sponsored by BP.
>Palin is extremely anti-choice. She doesn't even support abortion in the case of rape or incest.
>Palin opposes comprehensive sex-ed in public schools. She's said she will only support abstinence-only approaches.
>As mayor, Palin tried to ban books from the library. Palin asked the library how she might go about banning books because some had inappropriate language in them—shocking the librarian, Mary Ellen Baker. According to Time, "news reports from the time show that Palin had threatened to fire Baker for not giving "full support" to the mayor."
>She DID support the Bridge to Nowhere (before she opposed it). Palin claimed that she said "thanks, but no thanks" to the infamous Bridge to Nowhere.
