Yes. That is what I basically stated. She allowed them to think she agreed with them more than she did. Are you saying that Obama, or Hillary, or even Ronnie Reagan never has done that with any crowd anywhere, or that she specifically should be burned for doing such a thing?
She never said she didn't speak like a politician, only that she doesn't like an insider. It was apparent she wasn't an insider during her interview with Couric.No but she held herself out as someone who did not do such things. "Say it isent so Joe". Remember all her comments about how she does not talk like regular Washington insiders.

You are just reaching in any silly direction you feel good about, aren't you? She lost the election, Jarod. You don't have to be afraid of the pretty lady any longer.
So, you think you should still fear the pretty lady. Fair enough.I disagree, I think part of her appeal to many was that they wrongly belived she was a stright talker who did not play the washington insider word games. The truth was however that she PLAYED THEM and did a better job of it than most.
So, you think you should still fear the pretty lady. Fair enough.
Except I haven't been "wrong". You are pulling a Biden and imagining history that doesn't exist.That's what this thread comes down to? You are wrong, then wrong again, then wrong many more times, so all you can do is resort to "oh, you're just afraid of the pretty lady?" (the lady who was close to being a heartbeat away from the Presidency, and is still talked about with enthusiasm by the GOP base for 2012)
I agree, hence my assertion that nobody needs to fear the pretty lady anymore. But heck, Onceler thinks I am wrong.I wish I believed for one moment that the power elite of the Republican party was going to allow her to be the nominee in 2012.
But that's not in the cards.
It'd be great though.

LMAO... how many times have YOU been wrong on this thread? You continue to put forth your stupidity. You whine that I did not post a direct quote from Palin. Then when I do post a direct quote, you ignore it and say that the detailed answer she gave is not her real position but that the 'yes' answer is what she 'really' believes.
Just admit you are a hack with PDS.

So, in reality you were both "right"?He was never wrong on this thread. I posted a Palin quote, which no matter how much you want to twist, was clear. "Yes".
There is no burden on someone to go looking for further quotes to see if a political figure later changed their story. Which, she did do.
Yeah, because nobody can ever clarify a point, it is set within stone forever as the only answer they can ever give.I dunno - maybe it's just me, but when someone responds affirmatively to a direct, clear question, I interpret that as someone responding affirmatively to a direct, clear question.
But sure - we're reading way too much into a "yes." Yes can mean so many different things.

Basically what I found out in this thread, what I learned, is that Palin believes in the "abstinence as the best option" teaching while also teaching of birth control and STD avoidance.
I really didn't know that before, even when I went into sarcastic mode.
Not when I say it Onceler. It would totally mean, yes. Yes. Yes.
No. In reality I was right, and SF was almost not wrong.
