Sarah Palin had certain talking points that had been drilled into her, and she was going to get them out tonight by hook or by crook. She decided not to pay attention to the moderator's questions and just respond at whim with the canned talking points word for word. Although, she didn't officially crash and burn, she definitively did not show one ounce of intelligence. She was more like a Chatty Cathy Doll. Pull her string and she will give you a canned talking point. Pull it again...you get another canned talking point! Heaven help the entire earth if this wacko is elected to office!

Let me answer your questions:
I'm going to repost your post and answer the questions in context:
I happen to agree with you, but does this also mean:
That all liberals aren't as bad as they are routinely portrayed on the conservative board? I'm sure there are some liberals that aren't as jaded as you and some others here. They routinely show up here only to be labeled a conservative when they don't go to the extremes that you do.
That all Muslims aren't death-seeking people? Maybe there are Muslims that are not death seeking. Where are they? Point them out to me? Why are they allowing their faith to over-run by extremists? Many of us keep waiting for the good Muslims to stand up against the radical Islamofascists, but they are strangely silent which leads me to believe that they are either scared of the extremists or they stand behind what the extremists are doing. I mean, there are a lot of people on many different forums and appearing on television to relay the fact that the *Jesus Camp* is an extreme fringe of Christianity and not true Christianity, but there is not a vocal majority coming out within the Muslim community to say the extremists are not representative of mainstream Islam.
That extremist fringes in any group are bad? I think I made that clear in my first post.
Muslims are routinely portrayed on this board and by the media and by Bush as lumped together in one violent clump. This is unfair, untrue and does nothing to promote peace and understanding.
Again, I don't see how it's unfair or untrue based on the evidence all around us, because the Muslim community is doing nothing to try and counter that they are anything but a religion of war (Jihad). They do not want peace. They do not want understanding They want annihilation of anyone who does not convert. If you can prove to me that the Muslim MAJORITY is peaceful then I will listen, but all the evidence I have studied up to and including some of the Koran proves otherwise.
All religions need to be respected and tolerated in America. Isn't that what America is supposed to stand for? Well sure...that is if the religion is not dead set on destroying America. America is to protect America and the Judeo-Christian beliefs it was founded upon. We tolerate any peaceful religion who wants to tolerate us in return, but if your sole purpose is to destroy America, well, common sense tells you that America has to defend herself and other weaker countries that are susceptable to bullying from the warmongering religion.
You have failed to answer any questions
You have been asked several times by different posters what you would propose to do to keep America safe. You avoid that question. All you seem to be able to do is criticize and insult others and essentially run people off this board who deviate from your extreme views. Sorry I invaded your hatefest.
HA HA.. Obama needs to answer MANY questions

It would have been nice if they would have let him answer their questions
I have never seen the group on The View come down so hard on anybody like they did Glen. All because of a stupid comment he made in his radio program? Wait a minute.....he DID NOT say what they said he said. I listened to the tape and he did not do what they said.
I'm not a real big Glen Beck fan, I like him somewhat, but he does speak about things that concern us...like ACORN and the government. Did you know they have been investigating ACORN for the past week and finding out all sorts of problems with this group from the "horse's mouth" not from his mouth. Probably not because you don't believe ACORN wears a halo.
JMHO
Speak patiently, answer their questions, teach nm
Perhaps if you would try to make sense people could answer your questions. nm

UAW has refused......... sm
any cuts in pay until their current contract expires in 2011. Of course, if the companies sgo under, that will become a very moot point. I think a better approach would be to take a cut in pay now and then renegotiate in 2011 when things are, hopefully, better. OTOH, there is no guarantee that this bailout would even save the companies, so it may be a moot issue anyway.
You are so right... many refused to see
nm
Yes....probably the ones who refused to evacuate...
as former Gov Kathleen Blanco alluded to in her interview today. She has certainly backed off on blaming the feds. That being said...there obviously were failures. They started with local authorities not abrigating authority to the "feds" like Bush begged Blanco to do. You missed those press conferences where she said she would call for help when she needed it? Well by the time she called for help it was too late...and her call then was "Mr President I need help send all you have" which is exactly what he did...but too late.
I don't know why we have to keep beating this dead horse. That is past, lessons were learned at both levels. I have been watching Ray Nagin today and he is NOTHING like the Ray Nagin before, belligerent and saying he could handle it. Now he is on the offensive talking to those who refuse to evacuate...because he knows that had a great deal to do with the humanitarian disaster. Let me paraphrase: "If you refuse to evacuate, you are on your own." "If anyone is caught looting, I mean ANYONE, you will be taken straight to Angola and placed in the general population (read up on Angola prison...). You will NOT be held in New Orleans. You will go straight to Angola prison." No due process, no nothing, he is shipping them straight to Angola. I never thought I wuld hear a Democrat say to skip due process. That is a VERY different Ray Nagin. And Bobby Jindal and Kathleen Blanco...well, enough said. Bobby Jindal started preparations before Gustav was even named a hurricane. THAT is the kind of leadership that would have helped make the toll of Katrina MUCH less. That, and the fact that the people of New Orleans are not having hurricane parties like they were last time (remember the footage on Bourbon Street before Katrina hit?) They are evacuating. Thank God!
Either way, he could have refused to work on the case. NM

He refused to be released from prison...
because there were men who had been there longer than he had and he felt using his dad's clout to get him out was wrong for those men, and it was, and that takes the kind of courage and integrity Barack Obama can only dream about.
How can you say he never regretted it? Does Obama regret throwing a friend and mentor, the man who baptized his children, under the bus for his political career? This is a man you should trust? Hello??
Bye, Administrator. You have refused to control them, and your trolls have won.
You've been unable or unwilling to control these pests. They refuse to stay on their own Conservative board because they're not happy unless they are personally attacking posters.
I can't begin to speculate how many other people you've lost because of this hateful group, but you've lost me.
To any thinking, intelligent people out there who woul like to visit a GOOD site where abusive trolls can be IGNORED, please visit Bill Maher's site. The topics and information are limitless, freedom of speech is guaranteed for ALL, and although there are a few hateful people there, it's nothing compared to the hate and anger and rage that is found on this board. You don't have to be subjected to personal attacks in a street gang mentality that happens here because you can simply click the ignore button. All in all, I believe a truer, better representation of what America really is can be found there.
Bye, all. 
Those who have refused to post respecfully and with knowledge of
banned. I can't tell you how important it is to show professionalism when posting. As well, I have posted in the past that I will not tolerate disrespect of the President of the United States, regardless of what your political affiliation is. Whether the President were Democrat, Republican, or polka dotted, this site expects posters to post with respect where the President is concerned or not at all.

Good for Fox News...they refused to run an ad against Obama...
put together by a private citizen (not the McCain campaign), the same guy who was behind the swift boat ads against Kerry. They could have run it and they chose not to. Good for them! I admit, there is cause for concern about Obama's connection to Ayers, but that kind of ad where it is mean accusation and innuendo with no real proof shouldn't be run, in my opinion. Good for them for stepping up.

Are you the Moderator?

MODERATOR
That post you just deleted was reported to the FBI. It needs to stay on. I agree it is an awful post but you need to at least report the poster to the FBI tips line. It is not fair to let them say things like that and get away with it!
According to the moderator...
This message from the moderator can be found on the Company forum. The quote relevant to the above post is as follows:
"Not one single poster here has any knowledge or information on who is really posting so stop posting like you do. Each one of you enjoy an anonymous privilege.
Disagreements are one thing but this tit-for-tat cyberbullying will stop. It is cyberbullying when you try to make other posters believe you have some type of knowledge or insight as to who is posting."
There is more than one liberal poster on this forum, so please stop accusing us of being the same person.

What are you the moderator or something. Are you tracking IP's...sm
Are you attempting to intimidate people from posting. Is it against forum rules to post under more than one moniker (not that I do - I'm always Democrat). But what sense does it make turning people in to the FBI for their posts on a politics board. Good grief. I would think the people posting here would be the least of Bush's worries.
Are you tapping my phone calls? Whooaaa I'm paranoid. Do you know my first and last name? Do you have a life? Geeze Louise.
The moderator said not to bash.
She did not say that people with opposing viewpoints could not post.
Brunson was a moderator??
Well, that sure explains a lot, doesn't it...
To Moderator (please see message)
Thank you very much for editing my post, removing the portions you felt were inappropriate but keeping the majority of my post intact.
When I first heard the candidate make the statement, I, too, felt the language was "aggressive" and "strange."
Why do you feel sorry for the moderator?
You object to my post or think the moderator should? Just curious.
MODERATOR: Please see message.
Could we please have a separate political board to discuss important issues without the constant barrage of posts by the person who calls herself sam? Let sam and her followers have their own board to monopolize. Give the rest of us another board where we can discuss important political issues in a respectful adult manner. Many of us are reluctant to partake in the political forum nightmare that sam has created, and a lot of good posters and important issues are being kept from the board due to the unrelenting attacks by sam. All we ask is that you provide a political forum that is off limits to sam, so the rest of us can discuss the real issues. Thank you for your consideration.
I agree too. Thank you moderator. nm

Again, I apologize, Moderator.
Thank you for deleting the offensive word; thereby letting me know that it was inappropriate. I will be more careful in the future. Thank you for your patience and understanding!

No, I do not think the moderator should remove...sm
this post. I think that everyone no matter what party should be aware that racism is alive and well in the good old USA.
Yes,, scream MODERATOR when you don't
what you want but other posters have sat here and read one racist post after another made by you and others. You think you're the only person with a thought? I am referring to an audio out there from Harlem, right out of the horses' mouths. The audio said nothing racist, so why do you think it is racist? You live in Harlem? If you did, you would know what is going on then. I have several friends who live in and around Harlem and know exactly what I am talking about and they wouldn't perceive this as racist, so why do you?

Teddy, you are not the board moderator. sm
And liberals are posting on the conservative board and do you see us ordering them off? You really have no tolerance. And by the way, the little article about dissention in the ranks, it seems all isn't what it appears to be. Shocker there.

I will support whatever the moderator decides.
I only ask that the moderator review the politics forum and make an objective decision based on the findings. It is my personal opinion that the forum has spun way out of control due to one poster in particular, making it impossible for others to participate.
The Moderator has an excellent idea.
Use the Golden Rule. Just ignore the crude postings and move on. Once she has no one to spew at, she'll quit soon enough.

Moderator is watching but you are incorrect.
The OP is not advocating but entertaining a valid thought about a past medical condition.

Sorry, Moderator...I will be more careful in the future.
Thank you for deleting it, thereby letting me know it was inappropriate. Again, I apologize.
the moderator asked them to look at and speak to each other -
it was not done to be intimidating - he was actually trying to follow the directions he was given.
Funny that the moderator disagrees
personally attacked.
MODERATOR..... was there an 'oversight' on Daniel's

we should report these 3 comments to the moderator,
this is a reason for a ban!
Well, obviously they weren't impress with the moderator's call...
to stick to politics and not attack anyone personally. Not a whole lot of politics going on here tonight. lol.
It never stops....meet the moderator for the VP debate...

I emailed the moderator and why are you being so cruel? unbelievable
Ever think you might hurt a person's feelings? Or you simply do not care?
The moderator asked you to stop directly below this post.
You don't know the meaning of the word *respectful.* You want to come here and censor this board and lay down the law about what is *newsworthy* and what isn't, the same way you people want to control every aspect of every American's life. How ya makin' out in that regard? Not too well, eh? 
You and your other sidekick(personality?) below don't come here to debate.
You come here to incite, and regardless of your promises, you'll never leave. Nobody is bothering you on your board, and you have to release your evil vile hatred somewhere or else you will explode, so you come here.
If you want to see vicious, consult the nearest mirror.
I guess it's not bad form to ignore moderator requests
Very strange debate, no control whatsoever by the moderator...sm
Almost like alternating republican and democratic commercials. Some very petty snide comments. Neither one of them impressed me, but I blame that on the moderator.
More questions...
When and where did Democrat deny in the past being African-American? I don't recall seeing a post to that effect and can't even imagine the reasons or circumstances under which such a post would even be posted. If you want to be believed, produce the post. Otherwise, it's just another necon lie, designed to take the focus off the real problem, which is a racist who apparently is proud to be such a deplorable human being.
More importantly, why are you so aggressive in your defense of such a deplorable human being when your own president has condemned what he said? Sounds like you and Bennett were cut from the same cloth, which frankly isn't surprising.
Better be careful, though. The next inconvenient group of people he might be interested in exterminating could be poor, uneducated, clueless, hateful, bigoted, ignorant white neocons.
