OK, I admit it. Sarah Palin is a great pick!

What's your point?

OK, maybe they think he is old, weak and fragile...

Somewhere in this or one of the other bilious threads about Sarah Palin, e-brown, reciting a prominent Democratic talking point, instructed us that the fact that Palin's daughter is pregnant is fair game because it signifies hypocrisy.

My dog doesn't search for a bone as furiously as Libs search for what they believe to be examples of hypocrisy among conservatives.

Clearly, e-brown and any other of you Dem-thralls who believe you've found a "gotcha" on Palin, have no idea what "hypocrisy" means.

Unless you have evidence that Sarah Palin, while promoting abstinence in public, was either providing her daughter with condoms or encouraging her to have sex, this is not a case of hypocrisy.

Irony perhaps, but hypocrisy and irony are two entirely different concepts.

Here are true examples of hypocrisy:

Self-professed feminists criticizing Palin for slighting her family to pursue her career.

Women who have had abortions for all sorts of frivolous reasons criticizing Palin for not caring enough about her baby.

Liberals who worship at the feet of the idolized proletariat, but sneer at someone from a small town in Alaska.

One can only hope that the reaction of the Left, through their heralds in the Media, to Sarah Palin will wake up enough average Americans to the fraud being perpetrated by Democratic and Liberal Elite establishment.

What I like best is the sourcing. Unbelievably thorough.

Racist.

I don't know if this has been posted elsewhere, but this seems like it belongs in this thread:

After Palin speech, Obama has record $10 million day

Glib at best Dys and JTT.

Tell us if you agree with e-brown or me: hypocrisy?

One of my rare moments of agreement with you, Finn: Irony.

Hypocrisy would be if she continues to push the position as the one that works.

Oh I just got it --- republiKKKan

Wow - that's damned clever Good Ole Dys.

I didn't address anything spoken by anyone but you, Finn. Do you think your sourcing was adequate?

Glad to see you have some appreciation of language Cyclo, but you remain deliberately ignorant.

She is "pushing" the position because she believes it is right.

But even if she "pushed" it because she thought it worked, she would be at worst wrong or ignnorant and not hypocritical.

For some reason, liberals find the sin of hypocrisy the vilest of all. Fair enough, but it's disingenuous, at best, to find hypocrisy in everything your political opponents say or do.

Answer the question.

If you insist, Finn. Your sourcing was short of adequate.

38 million people watched Obama speak from a faux-Greek set.

37 million people watched Sarah Palin speak.

One is a candidate for president - the other is a candidate for vice-president.

This is remarkable - the Democratic candidate for president is vying for exposure with the Republican candidate for vice president.

And why do you suppose so many people tuned in to listen to her speak?

How many tuned in to listen to McCain speak?

Won't know until tomorrow.

Must have been Obama supporters ----right?

Of course. But honestly, so many people"including many Obama supporters like myself" tuned in to find out just who the hell is she??? Of course, she irritated me with her psuedo tough girl talk and I didn't listen to her long but, long enough.
