So the people that destroyed the World Trade Center, or our embassies, or our Navy ships, or Underground stations, or train stations are NOT terrorists? Only people that try to destroy the US Capitol building and the Pentagon are terrorists?

how about someone advocating killing ATF agents? someone should ask her how they'd be classified.

PALIN does NOT consider abortion clinic killers and bombers to be terrorists. This woman is DANGEROUS to the democratic way of life in America. Her response regarding which kinds of terror are unacceptable is tragic as is she.

moreleesafer · 1 year ago

The reason she does not consider them terrorists is SHE participated in this kind of activity in Wasilla. A group she belonged to harrassed and terrorized a ob/gyn so bad the poor woman bought a bullet proof vest. They followed her kids home from school. They were intent on driving this poor woman out of town making it impossible for any woman to have an abortion whether she needed one of desired one. To her credit, the doctor refused to leave. she knew that the women in the mat-su valley needed her because if she left town, there would not be an ob/gyn within 50 miles or so that could save a woman's life if necessary, or abort her rapist's baby if she desired to do so.
The woman would have to travel to Anchorage or Seattle if she had transportation or money. in either case she could be dead before she arrived. That is the kind of world Sarah wants us to live in.

amerembee · 1 year ago

I think this point is a major one and should be a top-level story. Here's a dailykos diary from September, saying that Palin herself was spotted among abortion-clinic protestors:

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2008/9/15/62252/3...

Has Palin herself actually had conversations where the possibilitiy of bombing abortion clinics was discussed? Does she have provable associations with people who have had those conversations?

Quote: I would put in that category of Bill Ayers anyone else who would seek to destroy our United States Capitol and our Pentagon and would seek to destroy innocent Americans. [End Quote]

Would she label the Dr's and Nurses and Staff that work in the clinics and hospitals that perform abortions as "Not Innocent Americans" ?
How would she label them?
Innocent Americans or
Something else ?

sukabi1 · 1 year ago

I think she's already made it clear that some folks that are citizens aren't "Real Americans" ... pretty sure in her world that's where these folks would fall.... and that anything that might happen to them would be "God's Will"...

cmpnwtr · 1 year ago

John McCain sat next to a Repug state senator in Ore. back in the 90s during a fundraiser who preceded him making a speech praising a woman who shot a physician who performed abortions here in Oregon. McCain said nothing. McCain pals around with terrorists. And apparently his running mate thinks they are heroes too. These people are hideous.

Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago

"Now others who would want to engage in harming innocent Americans or um facilities, that uh, it would be unacceptable -- I don’t know if you could use the word terrorist, but its unacceptable and it would not be condoned of course on our watch. "

----

carefully stated to her base... read between the lines.

she wouldn't refer to the DOCTORS as terrorists... but it isn't going to happen on her watch.

am I the only one that read it that way? she isn't really talking about bombers, she's talking about BOTH the doctors AND the bombers.

'innocent life' is the phrase that caught my eye... how many of her base would consider the doctors 'innocent'?

this woman scares the hell out of me...

mcsame/palin 08 = theocracy on the march.

sukabi1 · 1 year ago

"innocent life" is the key to her statement... I think it's pretty safe to conclude from her past statements and associations that the only life that's "innocent" to these folks is in it's embryonic / fetal form...

Butch1 · 1 year ago

Yes, Reagan used the same type of language in describing those innocent folks who "caught the AIDS virus" through no fault of their own. (hemophiliacs) Totally disgusting.

scytherius · 1 year ago

Gary SF · 1 year ago

"....anyone else who would seek to destroy our United States Capitol and our Pentagon and would seek to destroy innocent Americans." So by this definition, she wouldn't consider Timothy McVeigh a terrorist. I guess those children in that building in Oklahoma City were not innocent Americans.

totally off topic... has anyone seen the story that's all over the web about the student who was supposedly attacked for being a mcsame supporter?

seen the picture? with the 'B' scratched on her face?


question, why is the 'B' backwards?

maybe done using a mirror?

sukabi1 · 1 year ago

The Smoking Gun has her photo, and a screenshot of her Twitter page from that night... Her Twitterings are really quite amusing... down to using her pocket constitution to try and talk herself out of a ticket for doing a U-turn...

She's as believably honest as the ticket she's working for...

TXfemmom · 1 year ago

Apparently, her story isn't checking out, and she has flunked a lie-detector test.

She is from College Station, TX, home of Texas A & M and it is about as Bush/McCain as it can be. Her story is a lie.

Rob Mule · 1 year ago

This story smells of fakery...A sort of "Joe the Victim".
Lie detector "discrepancies" most likely point to a hoax...
The media describes the backwards "B" as "carved" into her face but the Free Online Dictionary defines the word as "To divide into pieces by cutting; slice". The young woman's facial mark isn't "cut" or "sliced" merely reddened from pressure of some type.
This story stinks of Team Johnny field snark...

Bush_Bites · 1 year ago

Huffpo says the police are investigating "inconsistencies" in her story and put her through a lie detector.

(Results of lie detector not released yet.)

Smells pretty fishy to me....especially the Twitter stuff, which was also on Wonkette (one of the replies was "I hope she gets caught in her lie.....")

Butch1 · 1 year ago

Perhaps, it is a good thing that she doesn't have the power to change the definition of the word terrorist to fit her small religious fantasy world.

Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago

you've just stated one of the MAIN reasons to keep her out of office.

what with her definition of the VP powers... she'll have the theocracy up and running in no time. it'd be a matter of time before the 21st century crusades began.

Butch1 · 1 year ago

agreed. . .

TXfemmom · 1 year ago

I saw that, and it disgusted me. She and McCain both refused to call them what they are. Eric Rudolph killed all those innocents at the Olympics and they wouldn't even call him a terrorist.

Both of them are beyond redemption.

Wow ... ok, I am not prone to scathing vulgarity, but - after the Bush/Cheney era and all of its malfeasance - for her to substantiate her illogical and irrational opinions this way bodes poorly for any citizen who may be governed by her. She makes the term "fu*ktard" seem inadequate. Ignorance, malice and willful deception ... I'm beyond astounded.

GWMustGo · 1 year ago

So, in general, any bombing or other such act is terrorism.. That is, UNLESS she happens to agree philosophically with the bad actors, then it, ummm, it... ummmm, would be unacceptable...

My gosh - she would just slip right in where Cheney left off with that "logic".

SgtHudson · 1 year ago

Palin just pissed off any remaing intelligent women voters that McCain didn''t already piss off with his "health of the mother" remark with the air quotes in the final debate. These two are enemies of all women! Why don't Repug gals realize this?!?!?!

Sorry ladies and gentlemen, but clearly this blog has misplaced its terrorist flowchart. 60's radicals who attempt to bring down the military industrial complex to end illegal unpopular wars in southeast Asia, always TERRORISTS. Murdering doctors and firebombing medical clinics to halt legal unforced medical procedures, HEROES. Rioting in the street to demand equal treatment and force constitutionally granted civil rights be observed, TERRORISTS. Endorsing far right separatist group which wants to break a state away from the Union, HERO.

SarainKC · 1 year ago

To Palin and her fellow religious extremists terrorists, the operative word she uses is "innocent" citizens. To them, killing a nurse, a patient or a doctor or some poor passer-by at a legal medical facility for women's reproductive rights is doing God's work. To these American Taliban members, only they are capable of determining someone's innocence, and therefore some citizens in their eyes should be killed. Her entire religious philosophy is to be God's warriors and kill those who don't subscribe to their views. They are no different than any other religious group that perverts their faith to justify and promote dominance and violence.

It was amusing, seeing her obsessively keep bringing the conversation back to Ayers. Especially since no one's buying it. So now Ayers is a "category"? I got a category for you, Sarah-- LOSER.

An_American_Karol · 1 year ago

"Sarah Palin: I would put in that category of Bill Ayers anyone else who would seek to destroy our United States Capitol and our Pentagon and would seek to destroy innocent Americans."

Double speak. Doctors who perform abortions - terrorists. Those killing doctors who perform abortions - not so much.

The “BLESSED SARAH”. Ordained by DOBSON and evangelical leaders across the country. Sarah is a Christian. Blessed by her minister to be saved from WITCHES. Sarah is LOVED by Christian right Republicans. They see her as the bright future of the party.
Sarah and ALL who support her want a US Theocracy. Not Democracy. She wants us all to vote her version of the Bible. Terrorists who serve HER AGENDA are not Terrorists in her mind.

THINK! Being a member of today’s Republican party is a choice.

The Republican Party and the Christians who support and fund it, has de-evolved into a party of sociopaths if they do not solidly denounce her and her perpetual HATE. As Christian’s, they made her. They must own up to it. Defending people who bomb women’s health clinics is morally bankrupt. She is a despot and anyone who supports her is too, a despot.

Go to: www.buttheadpolice.com

Vote for her, and others like her to get an ass stamped on her head. It's funny. Pass it on. :)

Laur · 1 year ago

Okay, let's see here, now. Bill Ayers is the first thing that comes out of Palin's piehole when she tries to answer a question in a way that doesn't compromise her anti-abortion position.

Very clever--that's the sort of ability to think on one's feet the world needs a heartbeat away from the presidency, right?

The election really is an IQ test.

For once, I appreciate Brian Williams. What's Palin going to say--that he ambushed her? Williams is pretty conservative. Not a word comes out of his mouth without the approval of his boss, which is GE.

Which is precisely why "terrorism" should be managed as a law enforcement issue, not a military issue. It is undefinable.
