So not a bible-hugger, just a wingnut troll, judging by the other posts.

You don't need it.

I'd sponsor a dose of horse tranquilizers for yourself and your 'friends'. Jet gets two.

the mccain/ palin campaign claimed that she visited 'our troops' in iraq.

whoops!

Quote:

Following her selection last month as John McCain's running mate, aides said Palin had traveled to Ireland, Germany, Kuwait, and Iraq to meet with members of the Alaska National Guard. During that trip she was said to have visited a "military outpost" inside Iraq. The campaign has since repeated that Palin's foreign travel included an excursion into the Iraq battle zone.

But in response to queries about the details of her trip, campaign aides and National Guard officials in Alaska said by telephone yesterday that she did not

Quote:

Palin arrived at Camp Buehring in Kuwait, where she held a town meeting with soldiers and reviewed various training programs designed to prepare troops to deploy into Iraq, said Lieutenant Colonel Dave Osborn, commander of the 3d Battalion, 207th Infantry of the Alaska National Guard, who was in charge of the 570 local troops serving in Kuwait and Iraq.

"The whole intent was to check on the Alaskans," Osborn said in a telephone interview yesterday.
On the second day of the trip, he said, Palin was flown to the border crossing, about 100 miles north of Camp Buehring, where she spent the morning meeting with troops and presiding over a ceremony in which an Alaska National Guard soldier extended his enlistment.

But she did not venture into Iraq, Osborn said. "You have to have permission to go into a lot of areas, and [the crossing] is where her permissions were," he said.

lying about visiting 'our troops'.

sad days indeed....but at least she appears to know that she just can't outright lie and not be called on it....

Quote:

In her interview with ABC News Thursday night, Palin did not mention Iraq in describing the visit, saying only that she went to Kuwait and Germany to meet with US forces.

good girl. the truth is always best.

oh, and by the way, her 'trip' to ireland?

Quote:

the campaign acknowledged that Palin made only a refueling stop in Ireland.

Pale in comparison to John Kerry's misstatement about his "secret mission" into Cambodia December 1968.
I wouldn't expect much traction from it Ray.

raycarey · 14-09-2008, 08:10 AM

put down the bottle earl. it's 2008.
most would think it's time for you to get over the guilt you carry about chickening out of service in vietnam.

and your response to her campaign lying about visiting 'our troops' is that:
1. you think somebody else lied 30 years ago
2. the lie won't get 'traction'.

deal with it earl,the truth about palin is coming out....

she did support the 'the bridge to nowhere'
she didn't sell that plane on ebay.
she didn't go to iraq
she requested millions in earmarks

and there's still another 50 days for her to be exposed!

and i have to admit that i am taking particular pleasure watching you and your ilk on this forum twisting like contortionists in an effort to muster a defense for a woman who you know is absolutely not qualified.

great stuff.

It's curious how the spurious and scurrilous attacks on Palin only make her look better and rally more support on her side.
So Ray keep them coming!

A Palin aide in Alaska had said Iraq was also one of the military stops on that trip.

Apparently it was only a misstatement made by an aide! Whooops! Now that's a deal-breaker for sure amigo.

Ray: How does harping on the ridiculous not make you ridiculous?

yes, the mccain/palin campaign said she visited 'our troops' in iraq.

Quote:

Earlier, McCain aides had said that Palin visited Iraq, and expressed indignation at questions about her slim foreign travel.
The campaign also said she had been to Ireland; that turned out to have been a refueling stop.

Harmless, RC. Completely harmless . . . You should be ashamed of yourself berating and not trusting a mother of five, who bakes apple pie for her church every Sunday, takes her kids to baseball - oh, Alaska - hockey . . . . dodges bullets on the front lines in Iraq and regularly looks at Russia to become more aware of foreign countries.

This lady is close to a national icon and you disparage her . . . she even supports the Bush doctrine . . . it's also her world view.

Cease, man! This is a woman we are talking about

Taking care of five children and especially one with Down Syndrome is a hard task!
And now she wants to take care of America?

Pretty rich coming from a German, innit? Oh ya, Merkel studied physics (oh, she must be so well trained for politics) and is married but with no children to have to tend to around the cooking fire.

It seems a few people besides RC are disparaging a national icon, and in her home state too.

ANCHORAGE (AP) — Hundreds of people protesting the policies of Republican vice presidential candidate and Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin lined a busy street on Saturday, waving signs and chanting "Obama!"

The protest came about two hours after Palin delivered a rousing speech at Anchorage's new convention center before leaving the state to return to the campaign trail. Palin was named John McCain's running mate on Aug. 29. This was her first return since then to her home state.

The protesters, including supporters of presidential candidate Barack Obama and those who don't agree with Palin's positions on abortion, polar bears, Iraq and other issues, lined one side of the street near Anchorage's main library building.
A much smaller number of mostly pro-Palin supporters were on the other side of the street, chanting "Sarah! Sarah!"

Police were at the scene, but there were no immediate reports of clashes.
