Sonicmom:
The spin is going to happen, is happening, and always will. Thank you for a sane response. However:
The "handlers" of Palin have "offered" an interview with Gibson. But on Her Terms. It is stressed that they be "respectful and DEFERENT." What?
Future wannabe presidents or vice, do not get "deferent" handling just because they demand it. This woman is dangerous, and needs to be vetted. You can challenge me on this proposition, but anyone who wishes to seek a seat as the potential Commander-in-Chief should be tough enough to play with the Big Toys. She has many times bragged about her pushing down the "big boys." So, in her terms (not MINE), give us a dog fight. I'm a feminist right down to the core, and know what that means at my age. She wants to play tough? Screw "deference." Tell us, Sarah, about Georgia, about Global Warming, about Jesus in schools, and about the economy. And tell us what you know about scared, impoverished, pre-prison black kids in Chicago.
There will be spin. Of course this is mine. This is what forum, I suppose, are for. To blast out one's heart.
