Palin criticizes Obama stance on abortion
EVANSVILLE, Ind. - Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is taking President Barack Obama to task for his support of abortion rights and embryonic stem-cell research.

Palin, the 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate, criticized Obama's positions during a speech at the Vanderburgh County Right to Life's annual dinner Thursday night in Evansville, Ind.

She says deciding when babies get human rights isn't above her pay grade - a reference to Obama's response to a question from the Rev. Rick Warren last year. Obama said such questions were above his pay grade.

Thursday's appearance was Palin's first out-of-state trip on a partisan agenda since the presidential campaign ended. Some Alaska lawmakers have criticized her decision to make the trip as the state Legislature approaches its Sunday deadline.

2. deciding when babies get human rights isn't above her pay grade...
Unless she has the luxury of a fleeting moment to consider aborting her fetus.

3. His stand on "witch hunting" is a problem too.
And decisions on limiting women's human rights (other than her own) don't seem to be above her pay grade at all in her estimation.

The woman is a cartoon.

4. Palin? Who is she?
And why should I give a flying fuck about anything that she has to say?

5. So if stem cell research could have cleared Trigg's Down Syndrome...
Palin' would have said "thanks but no thanks".

If Tawd breaks his neck on his "snowmachine" and stem cell research could make him walk again, Palin' would say "thanks but no thanks".

Well, that;s her CHOICE.

6. Perhaps overstating the reality ...
From the OP: "Sarah Palin is taking President Barack Obama to task..."

Somehow I think Sarah Palin's utterings are not even rising to the level of "annoyance". Barely reaching "insignificant" on the meter.

I love this stuff. I can't wait to hear Sarah Palin's musings on Bo, or Susan Boyle. Heady stuff.

:hi:

8. Her own party has turned their back on her.
Now they use her to collect $$$ from their low I.Q. base but they will never let her get close to power again. Even they know she's a dangerous egomaniac.

9. In the same speech she said that she considered aborting Trigg

She is one big hypocrite, no?
