Abortion clinic bombers not terrorists: Palin
Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin, who has accused Democratic presidential contender Barack Obama of "palling around with terrorists," has refused to call people who bomb abortion clinics by the same name.
"There's no question that Bill Ayers by his own admittance was one who sought to destroy our US Capitol and our Pentagon. That is a domestic terrorist," Governor Palin said, referring to a 1960s leftist who founded a radical violent gang dubbed the Weathermen and who years later supported Senator Obama's first run for public office in the state of Illinois.
"Now, others who would want to engage in harming innocent Americans or facilities that it would be unacceptable to ... I don't know if you're gonna use the word 'terrorist' there," she added.

So what word are we going to use then? "Maverick"?
It hurts people, destroys property, and instills fear in the populace. Therefore, it is terrorism, and you are a stupid bitch.
Yay, finally an Aussie link....crap, it's about America anyway. Curse Australia and our laid back policies.
And, Palin, it's called terrorism. Stop beating around the damn bush.
This is another strange interview with Palin:
Does anyone seriously think she knows what she is doing? She seems a little....low on the logic side of life.
No!
Stop being an idiot!
I have some sort of interest in McCain which I can't quite remember but I'm totally sure it exists!
Come on, Palin! Stop being such a moron!
Pro-forced-birth clinic-bombers kill people; the Weathermen damaged property. The only people ever killed by Weathermen bombs were Weathermen.
I know which I'd consider a more serious threat to humanity.
Well, many Muslims fundamentalists usually also don´t think of people like the ones who flew into the twin towers as terrorists, but rather as fighters against the unbelievers.
Terrorists are always the others, never the ones who commit their crimes because they share the same moral/religious values with yourself :D
By not calling them terrorists she won ten votes she already had. If that idiot would have simply called them terrorists she still would have those same ten votes and not looked like an ass to the rest of the world.
I think she is the best troll ever. That or the stupidest VP pick ever!
Wait, so they're only terrorists if they destroy federal targets? No wait, that can't be right.
They're only terrorists if they're not white? Wait, how do you explain the IRA.
I know, I know, they're only terrorists if they target property? No, that clearly doesn't work either.
It's got to be that they're only terrorists if they don't share your beliefs!
Please America, the world begs you, don't let this woman ANYWHERE near the White House!
If they're so against abortion, to the extent of bombing clinics, lets see them do the same in China.
...what's that, Fundie 'Pro-Lifers'? If you're caught doing the same there, you'll be jailed for 10 years in a 'Re-Education' camp, where you'll suffer beatings & other forms of abuse, and made to accept the Party line (including accepting that abortion isn't illegal, indeed, is a GOOD thing), including having to recant your 'Faith', and be a good Atheist - and you'll be FORCED to accept all that re-education; one slip (even after 9 years, 364 days), and you'll have to undergo it all over again, until you can prove you're no longer a Fundy 'Pro-Lifer ' in their eyes. I guess that's why you only do so in the USA. Two Words: Soft Target.
Thus proof of their hypocrisy. If they're not prepared to protest against abortion in China, they have NO right to protest anywhere else. And that evil fundy witch Palin, by not doing the same, only serves to expose HER hypocrisy (but she's already one; promoting 'Family Values' & abstinence amongst teens, yet her OWN daughter gets knocked up! I blame the parents...!). That, and not condemning these fundy freak clinic bombers as terrorists.
....
WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU. This is what we like to call a "softball question". Answering yes, the obvious answer , would help you .
Lady, you are either unbelievably stupid or you're a fucking whackjob who thinks shooting doctors and bombing family planning clinics is perfectly okay.
I would sooner put Bush back in for another term, were it legal, than vote for you by proxy. And I think Bush is among the worst presidents we've ever had, so that's really saying something. He was just an idiot who couldn't run a hot dog stand.
You, on the other hand, scare the living hell out of me.

Indeed. Anyone aside from the average RR poster can see that the woman ranges anywhere from unstable to a hypocrite. Run her as the lead on any ticket will guarantee a Democratic win. Christ, *I* could run against her and win (Ignoring the no American Born Citizens thing...hell even considering that, I think I'd have a better shot. :p)
You know, if America decides to ever screw itself over again e.g. if they assassinate Obama, I hope Palin becomes pressy, so at least watching America be screwed over again will be entertaining.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
