"Hoax limited to identity of story's SOURCE,
Posted By: Not the Fox news story itself"....sm on 2008-11-13
In Reply to: Hey, all you who like to blast Palin. - Read this.
By my read, looks like the jury is still out on this one. They retracted the false (hoax) report that Eisenstadt was the source...but the story is still out there.
I did not see Palin deny this outright. I saw Palin say she would not comment on an answer to a question by an anonymous source until the source comes forward. I doubt that the alleged source will come forward, given the likely motivation behind the report. What I DO think is pertinent here is that many, many people INCLUDING Fox News find this report perfectly plausible, based on Palin's demonstration of BLATENT lack of knowledge of world affairs and foreign policy.
You know what they say. You don't get a second chance to make a first impression.

Raw Story? Hardly a MSM news source I would say. SM
I will wait for the real story.
Identity checks?
How do we know who these "individual contributors from the internet" really were? Is there a way to positively determine their true identities? Sounds like we need to know about this. I would really like to know if it is possible to confirm their true identities and where this cash is coming from.
Mistaken identity, for sure
Thanks! I saw no point in defending that accusation. I've only posted on this board for the last month or so, and not all that much, either. But Observer's name shows at almost the end of every thread, having the last word. And you don't have to read those posts to make an educated guess they're argumentative.
Identity Politics
The libs created this and now have no clue how to play the hand they dealt all these years. All the conservatives were automatically racists because of this, that, or whatever. I don't need anyone telling me what I have in my heart. And for the record, I do have more than just white friends.
Frankly, I'm loving them squirm.
Identity problem
I don't think he can decide what he is, democrat, independent, republican. Now republican who votes with the democrats?????????????????????
I think Lieberman has an identity problem.

Don't think the benefits are limited to
More democratic debate and result-oriented compromise should lead both factions toward centrist positions and policies, which would be more representative of the WHOLE of the nation and would have the effect of crowding out special interests. Sounds less corrupt, more equal, and patently progressive toward a real change in the way Washington politics works. Should prove to be very interesting.
Because you limited it to Schumer...
When in all fairness, they all saw it coming and, I believe, had no idea how to stop it from gaining momentum - so they cashed out and left the rest of us to flounder.
Of interest, but probably of limited significance
FACT......Those who have never seen battle personally are usually cowards and the first ones to want war, who preach for war.....and will send your kids and keep their kids home...

Does your head have a limited capacity?
Thanks for the warning. You know it appears you're following me around making disparaging comments under every one of my posts for no purpose whatsoever except to annoy me.
I'm flattered:) Like your new name too - but by any name, you are never anonymous. Just can't stay on the conservative board can ya? Haha, never thought you could!

Consider The Source
Sam, this is the same group of people who thought that what Bill did with all those women was okay, or simply a "private" matter.
So nobody in this bunch has ever had a pg teenager? And if any one of these women here would just throw (that's Demspeak for kill) away a DS baby? It's simply a continuation of what they do is okay and what those nasty conservatives do is just criminal!
Wow, that's just classy.

is the NYT, but you can Google the quote and find it in several articles and blogs.

And what source exactly would it take
to satisfy you as being reliable?
SM, you have to consider the source,
this is the network that is fair and balanced, only if you are a democrat. These folks have an Obamachip embedded in their brain. Besides, this is a way to get let the guys and gals on here who are so enamored by their high priest a chance to get their minds off the fact that he could even come close to screwing up something or changing a campaign promise. Don't worry about double standards, they don't apply to Obama.

Well, consider the source............
The majority of those voting for Obama pay NO taxes, never paid a tax in their life, and rarely if ever held down a job...........
So why in the world do they see tax as a bad thing..... they've never paid a tax and will continue to NOT pay taxes and think Obama will just take care of all their needs. This is why they think "rich" is a bad word; they have no ambition, no drive, and never will, so for those that do, they must be punished for succeeding!!??
The lazy and ignorant are running this country through votes they really have no right having.......... IMHO

The source of your post
I'm not sure why you cut and paste far-right-wing-biased sources as the "truth" in your posts on a liberal forum. In your above post you copied an article from frontpagemag.com and for those who know little about it:
FrontPage Magazine's main focus is on issues pertaining to foreign policy, war, and Islamist terrorism. It regularly condemns official enemies of the U.S. and is a strong proponent of the war on terror, the Iraq War, and Israel's military actions.[citation needed] It has also published articles condemning what it perceives as left-wing organizations and causes, such as the Democratic party, the media, the environmental movement, affirmative action, reparations for slavery, left-wing interpretations of feminism, Islamism, socialism, communism, anarchism, anti-war groups, the United Nations, and other matters.[

edited, changed, and added to by ANYONE, right? You should be thoroughly ashamed of yourself as an MT to cite Wikipedia as your authority for ANYthing. I don't even necessarily like SP but you're making the case to side with her if that's how Barack's followers think/act.

Once source we can look forward to where
the war chest. It's time to stop rebuilding Iraq and enricing their surplus coffers, get out of dodge, bring our troops back home and start rebuilding our own country. I would look for that from Obama sooner rather than later and certainly he is not on that 100-year time line of McCain's. The Iraqis gets their country back and get to govern themselves, we get our troops back, the direction of the tax dollars gets reversed and we stop one of the unspoken, yet most significant economic hemorrhages of W's administration.
We then turn our attention toward reversing the power and economic stranglehold the corporations hold over us by instituting taxpayer-friendly policies that put corporate welfare behind the welfare of our citizens. We build an economy from the ground up instead of the top down. Sound familiar? We've done it before and we can do it again. Once we do that, W's legacy of fear and division will takes its rightful place in annals of history and seem like just another bad dream we all had.

Not exactly an unbiased source!
Charles Krauthammer isn't someone whose judgment I would trust. He's been 100% pro-war policy all the way. Not surprising at all that he'd opt for McCain. What we really see is a lot of former Bush policy supporters abandoning that destructive policy and endorsing Obama instead. Can anyone cite an instance of a well-known real Democrat opting for McCain over Obama? I've been keeping my eye out (fair is fair), but have yet to see one endorsement of that type.
reliable source for this please. nm

Not a reliable source - sm
The Huffington post is not a reliable source. It's radical left-wing propaganda. It's even less credible than MSNBC.
The source is not the issue
the voting record is.
