The GOP's cheerful viciousness

Yet again, the GOP launches brutal personality and cultural attacks on the Democratic candidate. Yet again, Democrats seem determined to allow it to do so.

    re: Shooter, the list of lies as per you request...

    This is going to be a real litmus test of who is liberal in the press and who isn't. Let's see....

    Palin: earmarks, bridge to nowhere, vetos.

    Confirmed by article that also neglects to mention her opposition to Don Young and the indicted Ted Stevens, members of her own party. I'd say that goes to Palin. The part about $750 million is laughable after seeing all the others go after billions.

    Palin: "not a single major law or reform — not even in the state senate." LOL. Barring WMD's? Rezko reform? Puhleaze.

    Palin: Obama wants to raise taxes? All true and confirmed in said article.

    Then this guy switches over to McCain and away from Palin. That's it? That's all? Keep up the good work. And oh yeah, badmouth any of the recently deceased lately?
