She said those statements were false.She IS an airhead.
She didn't know that Africa is a continent, and she didn't know what countries are in the NAFTA. That qualifies her as an airhead.

Please prove that statement.

I didn't ask you to repeat them; I asked you to prove them."Obama pals around with terrorists." FALSE
"Obama is a Muslim." FALSE
Palin overspent her budget alotted by the Ruplicans for clothing, and actually charged items for her husband and her children that were not autorized. TRUE.
Palin went rogue and issued several statements that the Republican party had not approved. TRUE.
Palin claims to have sold Alaska's state plane on Ebay, when in reality it was not sold on Ebay. She actually sold it privately, because whe got no bids on Ebay. Further, she sold it at a huge loss, and then billed the state of Alaska for her family's travel expenses. TRUE.
Sarah Palin preaches absitinence, yet cannot make it work in her own family. TRUE.
Sarah Palin could not name a single Supreme Court case that she either agreed or disagreed with. TRUE.
Sarah Palin could not properly detail the duties of the office of VP. TRUE.
These are just the ones that have popped off the top of my head, and have all been supported with previous links, so don't bother asking for the links now. They are available in previous posts.

What does all that have to do with the allegations about her thinking Africa is a country and not knowing the members of NAFTA?"Obama pals around with terrorists." FALSE

The whole point of this thread is those two things she was accused of and denied. Everything else is a red herring. I see nothing that proves that they're true nor do I see any "obvious connection". All the candidates made stupid gaffes. That doesn't mean every anonymous allegation against them are true. If I'm missing something, please show me.Scroll back and read the posts and you will see the obvious connection. And thank you. You have just listed 2 more of which she has been accused that can be substantiated.

She said those statements were false.
The ones Obama denied were false and could be proven so. The ones about Palin are true.
They may be true, and there may be more evidence out there, but the evidence I've seen is weak, so I don't believe it yet. If you have a video or something more than a few anonymous sources, I'd be happy to see it.So you are saying that those two specific allegations against Palin are not true and can not be supported?
And, if another poster brings up allegations made against Obama in comparison, it is hardly a "red herring" to bring in additional accusations against Palin.

My point is we don't have enough information to know definitively what the truth is. Anonymous sources don't past muster.You can choose not to believe it if you wish. But the thread is not about whether you accept the truth, but what the truth is. The truth is that the allegations against Palin can be supported as truth.

But hey, I know a guy who worked in the Obama campaign. He said that Obama actually thought there were 10 continents. Yeah, he's an anonymous source, but I swear it's true. Oh yeah, and Obama said there were 57 states, so it's entirely believable he would think there were 10 continents.
Is this passing your truth detector? Would it if it were aired on the news?
Good attempt to deflect from the topic at hand, but you still loose. Actually, you have shown your own hypocracy, by first stating that such allegations had nothing to do with the topic, but now, when you think they will serve your purpose, attempting to use them.
The fact is, Sarah Palin has shown her true colors to the American public, and they have made their decision based on that. Don't be a sore looser.

It's not hypocrisy when I'm using an absurd example to display the absurdity of the logic being used here- that the rumors based on anonymous allegations must be true because she has said and done stupid things in the past. I would think a Ph.D. candidate such as yourself could discern the difference, not to mention the sloppy logic I was trying to point out in the first place.Good attempt to deflect from the topic at hand, but you still loose.

What makes you think I'm a sore loser just because I'm defending the person who happened to lose the race? Does losing a political race make one fair game for baseless accusations?
