Obama[*1] :
“I have said before and I will repeat again: People’s families are off limits,” Obama said. “And people’s children are especially off-limits. This shouldn’t be part of our politics. It has no relevance to Gov. Palin’s performance as a governor or her potential performance as a vice president. So I would strongly urge people to back off these kinds of stories. You know my mother had me when she was 18 and how a family deals with issues and teenage children, that shouldn’t be a topic of our politics.“
Biden[*2] :
“The press has been asking me that question and I have not answered it for two reasons,” Biden said at a town hall meeting in Deerfield Beach, Fla. “Number one, first of all, I don’t know the governor. Everything I know about her, there’s no reason not to respect her and believe she’s qualified to be the vice president.“
Emphasis mine.
A selection of what’s on the front page of Daily Kos (no link–why bother?):
Hurricane Palin Might Finish What Katrina Started
McCain: What Will You Learn at Palin’s Feet
The Palin hypocrisy has made me an “angry” liberal
Governor Palin, You’re A Disgrace
What books did Palin want banned?
It’s even worse on other leftie web sites, such as the New York Times, CNN, CBS, MSNBC, etc., etc.
You know, I don’t give to political campaigns as a rule, but all of this crap is starting to edge me toward donating to McCain/Palin, in hopes that it will shut up these pinheads.
