scribblet Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 This gives a whole new meaning to "Palin Derangement Syndrome" as one comment said "a fine example of left wing tolerance" http://blogs.abcnews.com/thenote/2011/02/palin-event-cancelled-due-to-onslaught-of-negative-feedback.html ntial Tipsheet ABC News' Clayton Sandell reports: Only one day after a Colorado foundation announced that Sarah Palin would be the keynote speaker at a May 2nd event benefitting military families, the event has been abruptly cancelled thanks to an “onslaught of negative feedback.” “Due to an onslaught of personal attacks against Governor Palin and others associated with her appearance, it is with deep sadness and disappointment that, in the best interest of all, we cancel the event for safety concerns,” said a press release from the Sharon K Pacheco Foundation. The release says no direct threats were made against the former Alaska governor and vice presidential nominee, but cites last month’s tragic shootings in Tucson along with an “increase in negative rhetoric” that raises concerns for Palin’s safety.

Shakeyhands Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 phhhbbbttttt...... So she's a chicken shit too? Can't handle the criticsm?

scribblet Posted February 7, 2011 Author Report Posted February 7, 2011 Neither, it's about the organizers cancelling an event due to safety concerns over threats to Palin. Not hard to understand. Whether or not you like her isn't the issue here. Quote Hey Ho - Ontario Liberals Have to Go - Fight Wynne - save our province
Topaz Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 Seems like the Republicans are having trouble with events. Another Rep. GW Bush was suppose to go to Switzerland for a speech, so when the citizens found out they want their government to arrest him for war crimes...Bush cancelled!! http://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/2011/02/06/2011-02-06_george_w_bush_cancels_trip_to_switzerland_amid_calls_for_massive_protests.html?r=news Quote
Jonsa Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 No threats against her, but they decided to cancel fearing for her safety because she gets criticized for what comes out of her mouth? I grant you that she illicits vitriolic responses and some of the attacks are incredibly unfair, but she chose to to be a national political figure. Maybe this is another WTF moment for her. Quote
BubberMiley Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 This gives a whole new meaning to "Palin Derangement Syndrome" I don't blame the Republicans for being worried about her. They have a decent chance to win in 2012, but if she steals the nomination, they're screwed. I think we'll see more GOP attempts to shut her down as we get closer to the election.

Realizing that any kind of run for President will end in bitter disappoinment? Which is it? LOL, this also brings a new meaning to Palin Derangement Syndrome. There's a lot that one could criticize Sarah Palin about. But criticizing her because she didn't want to risk her life? Seriously, is that what some people have sunk to? Quote

Shady Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 Risking her life? Maybe. Have you forgotten about Arizona already? Quote
punked Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 Maybe. Have you forgotten about Arizona already? Yah and yet no threat at all on Gillfords unless you mean that came from Sarah Palin. Quote

scribblet Posted February 7, 2011 Author Report Posted February 7, 2011 Obviously there's a double standard here, the Arizona incident was shocking and terrible, but if an event for Palin is cancelled for “Due to an onslaught of personal attacks against Governor Palin and others associated with her appearance" it's not a problem. Sure does give a whole new meaning to PDR Quote Hey Ho - Ontario Liberals Have to Go - Fight Wynne - save our province
BubberMiley Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 Sure does give a whole new meaning to PDR You've said that twice now, but you should try and clarify. How has the "meaning" of so-called PDR now changed? Quote "I think it's fun watching the waldick get all excited/knickers in a knot over something." -scribblet
Shady Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 Yah and yet no threat at all on Gillfords unless you mean that came from Sarah Palin. No. The threats made to Giffords date back to 2007. Nothing came from Sarah Palin. Nice McCarthyism though. Quote
Shady Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 You've said that twice now, but you should try and clarify. How has the "meaning" of so-called PDR now changed? It's changed to a whole new level of derangement. It's in the stratosphere now. Apparently she has to risk her life now, or she's not a credible politician or something. This kind of derangement is off the charts, never before seen in the history of politics. Sounds like we have some Jared Lee Loughners in this forum. Quote
BubberMiley Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 This kind of derangement is off the charts, never before seen in the history of politics. I would agree with that. You "ilk" are certainly raising the bar in terms of total paranoid lunacy. But it seems to me that the "left" love Palin. There isn't a day that goes by that Huffington Post doesn't have her featured front and center. They want nothing more than to build her up so that she wins the GOP nomination for 2012. The GOP is very nervous, so I'm not surprised they're trying to bring her down. I'm also not surprised you think it's the "left" doing it. You've always been very, very easily fooled.

That's why they mention her so often. As other media does too. It draws traffic and revenue. Quote

I'll remember you said this next time I see you talk about the left wing media. Quote

It's actually a media conspiracy to build up Palin so she wins the GOP nomination. Quote
BubberMiley Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 It's actually a media conspiracy to build up Palin so she wins the GOP nomination. "Consipiracy" is a little strong. I would say "effort." I think there were GOP efforts to build up Obama before the last election too, because they thought he was unelectable. That one backfired on them though.

Black Dog Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 (edited) “Due to an onslaught of personal attacks against Governor Palin and others associated with her appearance, it is with deep sadness and disappointment that, in the best interest of all, we cancel the event for safety concerns,” said a press release from the Sharon K Pacheco Foundation. Jesus, who wrote that? Palin? That's some nice mangled syntax there, boys. Obviously there's a double standard here, the Arizona incident was shocking and terrible, but if an event for Palin is cancelled for “Due to an onslaught of personal attacks against Governor Palin and others associated with her appearance" it's not a problem. Sure does give a whole new meaning to PDR You do know the difference between "personal attacks" and actual shootings, right? And if this gives "a whole new meaning to PDR," then what, may I ask, was the old meaning? Edited February 7, 2011 by Black Dog Quote
