		<description>I would agree with your distinction regarding different degrees of behavior. however, I am talking about the sentiment behind the comments.

also the tendency to somehow characterize me as &quot;other&quot; (ie someone who just started reading this website- or who disagrees with views expressed here) is inaccurate. I have read this site regularly for more than a year and I appreciate it greatly.  More recently, as I have chosen to ad my voice to the comments, I have found other commenters to be fairly unacceptable of a range of thought.  And I when I felt that I was personally attacked, and I called those attacks what I saw them as.

On the day this story was posted, it was the third or forth in a row and it struck me as small and petty.  And the issues we are currently dealing with as a nation are big and important.  I don&#039;t mean to be argumentative, I just felt the focus was inappropriate and I said so.  And I was disappointed with the response here.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I wonder how your “love it or leave it” sentiment expressed about my participation here is any different than those reflected in the comments of all these “real American” talking monkeys.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

i know you didn&#039;t ask me the question, but the comment shayne had left to you was pretty much what i&#039;d been thinking about saying.  and, as far as the difference between someone complaining about a website they clearly just spent time reading and people who point fingers at other americans and call them &quot;anti-american&quot; or imply there&#039;s a real american and a fake america - WOW.  i&#039;d say there is a HUGE difference between people visiting a WEBSITE, and people who are all citizens of the same COUNTRY.  website...country...yep, think about it...amazingly freaking huge difference.</description>

		<description>Palin is a woman that will not acknowledge the difficulty that women have faced historically to make the gains in society that they enjoy today. We all stand on the shoulders of those who came before us even if we do not acknowledge them, they are still there. 

Palin is a woman who while enjoying the labors and fruits of those labors of women that came before her, would seek to deny them to other women. Women like Palin like to keep other women down, because it can make it seem like her achievements are just that much better than those that she will not support.  

One thing about Palin, though, is that she trades on her beauty and this practice is primary to her &quot;feminism&quot;. At some point, and it is coming soon, beauty fades and then all one has left is what you stand for and one&#039;s integrity. Palin might be wise to remember what her party likes to espouse: &quot;Character counts.&quot;</description>

		<description>maybe my words are a bit strong, and I like to have some fun with this topic too, it just seems to me that taking potshots like think progress seems to be doing today could easily be construed by someone who does not share a negative opinion of Gov. Palin as hateful.  And with 2 wars and an economy in shambles, perhaps this blog should focus on more important &quot;target rich environments&quot; than a politician who (in my opinion) couldn&#039;t talk her way out of a paper bag and is never going to have a platform of such importance again in her life after Nov 4.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;johnfyounger Says @ 34:&lt;/em&gt;

Outrage and Hate? Sounds like projection to me.

We are appalled at her audacity and her mendacity and her apparent inability to know truth from lie.  We are appalled by her obvious aspiration to climb the political ladder at any cost.

And if we express that in jabs and jests, well, that&#039;s just our way of coping.  But outrage and hate?  Not so much.

Exasperation and pique? You bet.  As for those other weighty topics, we&#039;ve covered those, and rather insightfully I&#039;d like to say.</description>

Someone said &quot;when your opponent is hurting themselves
don&#039;t stop them.&quot; Or somthing like that. 
In military terms she would be called &quot;a target rich environment.&quot;</description>

		<description>what&#039;s with the Sarah Palin obsessive bashing today?  Call me a concern troll or whatever, but I really think heavy-handed emphasis gives too much energy to what amounts to a sideshow at this point.  

Our economy is entering what is going to be at least a very painful recession.  Quit acting like the clown at the back of the classroom whose strong asset is to point fun at and not to actually accomplish anything.  Let&#039;s see some investigative pieces about how the bailout/rescue is being conducted or what next steps might need to be taken.  This other crap has become shooting fish in a barrel.  The stuff here isn&#039;t funny like SNL, or well constructed like Katie Couric&#039;s interview ... it is just unproductive outrage and hate.  I&#039;d like to see it focused somewhere more productive.</description>

		<description>Palin doesn&#039;t know what a feminist is, just like she doesn&#039;t know what a precondition is, or what the Bush Doctrine is, or what the Vice President does.</description>

		<description>OT: but I felt I should share this...

The woman who claimed someone attacked her when he saw her &quot;McCain/Palin&quot; bumper sticker and carved a &quot;B&quot; into her forehead has just confessed to &lt;strong&gt;MAKING IT UP&lt;/strong&gt;.
