reasonable?

If it looks like a gunsight it is a gunsight.

voices.washingtonpost.com

And what if Sarah described the pictures as "bullseyes"? How does a "reasonable" person interpret that?

"After posting the map on her Facebook page, Palin told her Twitter followers to go there with the message "Don't Retreat -- Instead RELOAD!"

Poor Sarah- hoist on her own tweet:

"There is a surveyor's symbol that resembles the circle used on Palin's map. (You can see it on the lower right-hand side of this U.S. Geological Survey guide to topographical map symbols). However, Palin herself referred to the targets as a "'bullseye' icon" in a post-election tweet. "

Sarah, as we all know, has a lot more familiarity with gunsights than surveying- so I'm sure she realized what those symbols looked like- that's why she tweeted they were "bullseyes". Defending such irresponsible print ads is really unreasonable, and scummy. Everyone "reasonable" who looks at those is going to see a gunsight. But keep it up- the kind of post you just posted is going to seriously inflame moderates against Palin, so I'm for you posting your ideas everywhere. Keep it up- plesse. Heck of a good job misty.

>>I just wanted to set the facts straight for reasonable people to see for themselves.<<

Ah, now I understand why your post was unconvincing to me. I've never been a reasonable person.
