Basically people who keep weaponized pets are lunatics.

we're giving Palin too much ink and this feeds into the premise of sexism.

I agree with Douthat:

[.]

Do not attack her. Stop referring to her as a just a small-town mayor and a neophyte governor who's unqualified to be President; in fact, stop referring to her at all.
Attack John McCain, John McCain, and John McCain. Attack him all day, all night, and on weekends too. Behave as though Sarah Palin does not exist.

Pray that the media will find some Palin-related scandal even more shocking than the perfervid theories aired this week (they'll be looking for one, no doubt), and in the event that they fail to do so, do not under any circumstances allow yourselves to be drawn any deeper into a debate (which the McCain campaign plainly wants to have) over the relative qualifications and accomplishments of Barack Obama and the Republican vice-presidential nominee.

Nothing that's happened this week has changed the fact that it's going to be very, very hard for the Democrats to lose a race between Obama and McCain - and as a result, the Obama-Biden ticket has vastly more to gain from changing the subject away from Sarah Palin than they do from placing her candidacy, her qualifications and her background front and center in this race.

McCain's judgment needs to be attacked.

(emphasis added)

Well, "You can't vote for war and disown the results"

Palin Is A Heartless BITCH, Period:

Child taken off life support after pit bull attack

Isis underwent surgery at Alaska Native Medical Center the day of the attack, then was placed on life support, Injasoulian said. The girl's father was deployed to Iraq, and the family waited for him to return before taking her off the machines.

This comes from the Anchorage Paper on 08/18/08

Bring our Veterans All the Way Back - PTSD

no compassionate conservatives this time, just the mean pit-bull types. All I see from Palin is the "arrogance of the rich" and the "have mores". Tax-cuts for the rich and nothing more, if you are poor than we only care about you until election day..and your vote. After election day it is, if your poor its your own fault.

And all the liberals in Washington DC, W, Cheney, and Tom Delay Congress. If John and Sara find those person liberal, than i'm truly afraid of the "pitbull" politics of John McCAin.

Sorry about your dog Boo, I think that explains why you and I disagree on what i consider to be a wonderful breed.

that said, Palin's the kind of pit bull that gives pit bulls like our family dog Sherman  a bad name.  

Sherman's just big lovable lug big enough for my son to ride like a horse.  He thinks he's a lap dog, and sits in a chair with the rest of the family during dinner (my brother will confirm this). The dog's so gentle when my mom's cat abandoned her kittens, Sherman raised one of them. Now, Thomas acts like he's a dog!

Sarah Palin's not like Sherman at all. She's the kind of pit bull that needs to wear a muzzle and be restrained because all it knows how to do is attack and kill.  A vicious brute of an animal.

Those kind of dogs never come to any good end, which incidentally I hope for both the McCain campaign and Sarah Palin's political future.

John Mccain Called his wife WHAT??

Having fallen for about 10 pieces of bait myself in the last week, I humbly suggest that everyone resist repeating her own words about herself vis-a-vis similarity to canines. Using female and dog in the same paragraph is treading on the thin, Alaskan ice she's beckoning us to walk across.

I bet half the media reports on this supposed scandal or lack of vetting were just that: an attempt to lure people into victimizing her on terms they are prepared to rebut effectively.

Viva Presidente Ezequiel - Aquí no hay quien viva!

Palin is a pig.

Now, I must defend this breed of dog.
I adopted one who had been abused and he is the most gentle dog I've owned.

He shows no aggression to dogs, cats, adults or children. Ever.

Btw...the Michael Vick dogs will be on the National Geographic channel on Friday evening 9PM EST.
