Palin Accuses 'Obama/Biden Democrats' of Attacking Her Family, But Campaign Can't Name One

September 04, 2008 8:05 PM

Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin sent out a fundraising solicitation today that charged that "the Obama/Biden Democrats have been vicious in their attacks directed toward me, my family and John McCain."

I asked spokespeople of the McCain campaign and the Republican National Committee just which "Obama/Biden Democrats" they're referring to.

The response I got was that Obama spokesman Mark Bubriski erroneously attacked Palin as a supporter of Pat Buchanan.

That's it. That's the evidence.

An attack on Palin herself.

In other words, they can't name one person affiliated with the Obama-Biden campaign who attacked the Palin family.

But she made the charge anyway, to help raise money.

Incidentally, in 1998 Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz, told the following joke at a Republican fundraiser:

"Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly?" McCain joked about the then-President's then-teenage daughter. "Because her father is Janet Reno."

''This is the bad boy,'' he told the New York Times' Maureen Dowd. "It was stupid and cruel and insensitive. I've apologized. I can't take it back. I could give you a whole bunch of excuses, but there are no excuses. I was wrong, but do you want me crucified? How many days does it need to be a story?'"

Now THAT is attacking someone's family!

Its obvious to the world now that the McCain/Palin ticket would be a huge tragedy so the only way they can even attempt to gain ground is to throw dirt, they look immature and ignorant in their attempts. USA needs a life jacket for their very survival and McCain is definately not the answer. I am glad Obama/Biden are being more dignified, my husband even noticed how mature they act and how childish McCain is acting. I hope they keep showing their true colors.

I agree. Chelsea has grown out of the ugly dcukling phase.

The name calling will get worse.. Sarah is now playing to the crowds and getting cheesier by the minute..

The self-described "hockey mom" wooed her peers, holding up a Detroit Red Wings hockey shirt and describing how her son Track, now a soldier soon to deploy to Iraq, once played for a local team. "Michigan, you took care of my boy and now that boy is serving in the US Army and he's going to take care of you."

I hope you'll now vote for her!

stewart had some great footage on wednesday or thursday of karl rove attacking one of the short listed VP choices on obama's list. it was the governor of kentucky. he was governor for 3 years and before that he was the mayor of a city of population 200K. rove was saying that running a city of only 200K did not amount to much since it was too small, and being a governor for 3 years was. not long enough to gain valuable experience.

then he showed footage of rove last week, saying 2 years as governor of alaska was great executive experience and that her time as mayor of the second most populous city in alaska was invaluable (the city had a population of 9000 people).

lying dirty bastards!
