I know WHO the Palin woman is but no idea about her family history or politics. Just that people think she's a moron.

Are you a native English speaker?

Palin and her family are beyond politics, I don't there are very many people in the country who are not aware of them, it just seems odd you have no clue thsat why I ask if you are a native english speaker if not perhaps you spend your time in a foreign langue cable channel.

I thought she handled herself fantastically. I don't get the Bristol hate, really I don't. If someone yelled that in a bar about my mom, I wouldn't simply go up to them to ask them why. They'd be on the floor.

Of course it makes for good tv, but I thought her confrontational style to ASK him, and have him standing there like an absolute moron just repeating himself with no real answer was fantastic.

I think it's a sad state of affairs when a 47 year old man has to verbally attack a 20 something year old woman for no good cause.

I also find it really funny that part of his answers that SP was filled with 'anger and hate'. But HIS anger and hate are ok.

I say this sincerely - had it been ANY politicians daughter, liberal, conservative....I would find this just as offensive. I wish others could view this truly objectively - put down their party, or put down the generic hatred of SP which is popular, but like the guy in the vid, no one has a concrete reason why they hate her so much. Like or loathe her, SP is a politician who has accomplished great personal things for herself. A woman in a clearly misogynist state (if we listen to WM). Why we have to tear down women and label them as 'whores' is so antiquated and really unnecessary. You don't like her? Great. Who cares. But '#######'?

I feel she has so much hatred directed towards her because she's a woman. Even from other women. And that's not right.

Are you a native English speaker?

Palin and her family are beyond politics, I don't there are very many people in the country who are not aware of them, it just seems odd you have no clue thsat why I ask if you are a native english speaker if not perhaps you spend your time in a foreign langue cable channel.

I'm not entirely sure what you're trying to ask.. I think you're missing some words there.. but I'll answer how I think you meant to write your question.

Yes native English speaker. No, I don't watch foreign language channels (which probably still have the news). It's as simple as this: I have NO interest in politics. Occasionally I'll read something, or see something but it's of no interest to me. I know who the woman is but around the time she was on the news a lot was around the election. I deliberately avoid politics at that time because people get MEAN! Not just people actually running, but every day people talking about it so I just don't. Just like I avoid the topic of religion because some people take it really really seriously and instead of engaging in a polite, lively debate they take it personally when I say that I don't believe what they believe.

But that's beside the point, my reaction to that Bristol girl is of someone who doesn't judge her or her mother for her politics because I don't know them, or care about them. Anita Cocktail said that people shouldn't judge her or her daughter for her politics, I don't. I judge her for her behaviour. Yes the guy was wrong to say it, but she stooped to his level and engaged in a heated conversation, ON CAMERA. She didn't "handle herself well" she was confrontational, rather than.. "You are entitled to your opinion but I would be interested to hear your views on why you believe my mother is a #######". Not the mention as soon as she said "Is it because you're a homosexual?" she lost all credibility to me and just seemed completely intolerant, like someone would only hate her mother because they're gay. Yes he was but she turned the argument into being about that, rather than how juvenile it was of him to judge HER for her mother, let alone call her mother a #######.

As I said before, she just sounded and looked classless by approaching him and lowering herself to his level rather than just ignoring it because people WILL have their opinions, and his is already bad and she just inflamed the situation, especially with saying she could "tell" he was homosexual and pointing to the guy next to him and saying that was his boyfriend (when it wasn't as he said... but he's gay and he's near another guy so that MUST be his boyfriend)... and he was drunk.. rationalising with drunks is just pointless :S And 3:36?... yah.. classy :S

Also, in the OP you said she gave him several chances to say what he doesn't like and that he gave none. He DID give examples (2.53 he said "she lies" and some other stuff but he was talking quiet so I can't distinguish the rest, then 3:05 is "everything about Obama she likes" and that she has so much anger and hate) but those weren't answers she liked. She then wanted examples of why he thinks her mother is a #######, and his reason was she doesn't look like XX and she said "yes I'm half african-american, you caught me!". You can't really expect rational answers from a drunk person though.
