Palin hits Obama for ‘terrorist’ connection
[Quote:]
Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin on Saturday slammed Sen. Barack Obama’s political relationship with a former anti-war radical, accusing him of associating “with terrorists who targeted their own country.”
Palin’s attack delivered on the McCain campaign’s announcement that it would step up attacks on the Democratic presidential candidate with just a month left before the November general election.
“We see America as the greatest force for good in this world,” Palin said at a fund-raising event in Colorado, adding, “Our opponent though, is someone who sees America, it seems, as being so imperfect that he’s palling around with terrorists who would target their own country.”
[..]
Palin cited an article in Saturday’s New York Times about Obama’s relationship with Ayers, now 63. But that article concluded that “the two men do not appear to have been close. Nor has Mr. Obama ever expressed sympathy for the radical views and actions of Mr. Ayers, whom he has called ’somebody who engaged in detestable acts 40 years ago, when I was 8.’ ”

Conservative groups have spent more than ten million dollars on ads tying Obama to Ayers, and so far, Americans don’t seem to give a heck. (This tells us what about how we’re going to make that mortgage payment?)

Someone should send this primitive hockey-mom back to Alaska, where she should take care of her youngest daughter and prevent her from getting pregnant. It would be a pity to force her to marry at her young age.
Is Palin really able to read, write or spell? A couple of days ago she not even knew the name of a journal such as The New York Times. We are pleased to hear that she makes progresses towards political literacy.
She can count herself lucky that she has not been asked during her debate with Sen. Biden more questions about Russia. If asked about Aleksandr Sergeevich Pushkin or Fjodor Michailowitsch Dostojewski I am afraid she would have answered that they are Russian oil magnats. My appeal to the educated American people is to vote for a person who is at least able to read and write.
She has already disseminated too many lies and disinformation, so that no reasonable American voter with brains could ever be so naïve as to grant her credibility.
It is horrifying to see how she is instrumentalizing her children for her “political” purposes, especially the baby. It does not impress me, it disgusts me. She is not even able to hold the poor baby properly.

“A couple of days ago she not even knew”
Are you literate?

What the Republicans seem to forget here is that the Bush family were close buddies with Saddam Hussein and the Bin Laden family. The old Bush administration actively supported the terrorist group of Osama Bin Laden, as long as they were fighting against the Russians in Afghanistan.
So who was associating with terrorists and got elected to presidency nevertheless? If Miss Palin were smart (which we all know by now that she isn’t), she would leave this subject alone altogether, before others with more knowledge of recent American history notice that the Republicans have far more skeletons in their closet.

huerfano is a fine name
With all modesty, I think I am more literate than you and palin put together (English is not my mother tongue). I have an excellent writing and speaking command of five languages and a degree in literature. Even though I am a foreigner, I know much more about your country than your hockey-mom does. She has demonstrated nationwide in her interviews how “literate” she is. No wonder the nation is laughing at you.

We wish Senator Obama good luck. We are sure that in tonight’s debate against McCain he will demonstrate again his intellectual strength over the senile, tired, narrow minded opponent McCain, who should look after his grand children instead of harassing the world with his shabby polemics, demagogy and empty phraseology. Neither he nor his running mate Palin live by their own professed ethos. McCain is not qualified to be president, and in picking Palin he shows that he has little respect for the presidency.
Most of the European people are convinced that McCain’s only aim is to continue Bush’s destructive politics which has ruined the US economy and caused inconceivable sufferings in many countries.
It would be a pity if American people voted for a politics of destruction instead of progress and high human endeavour – such as PEACE. It would be a pity if American people opted for stagnation, economic ruin and backwardness.
Numerous polls conducted in many European countries revealed a majority of almost 90% who appreciates and supports Obama’s politics. The rest of the world needs to regain confidence in a great country such as the US.
We hope that God will deliver America from the evil and the harm that Bush has inflicted not only upon America but also upon other countries.
