Obama is the best thing that could have happened to the hate-talk crowd like Coulter. They now have a very visible Other to bash away at 24/7. That's how they got their syndication deals in the first place. And Palin will be their new Messiah in waiting. Goodie for them, LOL. Let them chirp away to their base. Nothing they say will get through the closed-loop walls to those suburban swing voters who tuned out the BS and voted their hopes this time.

Sam, << ..good thing about McCain is that he gave us a genuine conservative, Sarah Palin>> Good thing the next election is in 4 years. Should be enough time for her figure out that Africa is a continent and is comprised of countries ;-). It is terrifying that McCain could have potentially left the country in the hands of someone who would be so clueless, if the story is really true. Maybe it would have been different if she could see Africa from Alaska ;-). Maybe this is what confused her. Both Africa and Alaska start and end with the letter a. Since Alaska was a single state, same must be true for Africa ;-). <<In the spirit of reaching across the aisle, we owe it to the Democrats to show their president the exact same kind of respect and loyalty that they have shown our recent Republican president.>> Seems like a pretty ridiculous statement to me since she is implying that Bush got no respect after he was elected(or should we say chosen by the SC). The 2000 election was one without a clear winner and had to go to the courts. I thought the Democrats showed Bush plenty of loyalty and respect, especially when it counted, especially after 9/11 when Bush needed the backing to try to influence Hussein and the islamic extremists to come clean. Bush clearly wasted this good will with his poor decisions and partisan politics. Especially since Obama hasn't even done anything yet to merit this type of statement with what is being implied, I would say Coulter is being unpatriotic. Neal
