1. Outing her daughter to protect herself is reprehensible.

4. I can't choose just one.
I read them over a few times and they're all so awful that I can't decide.

10. Agreed; but the kicker for me is her irresponsibility in risking her viable fetus's life.
Since I had even a higher risk pregnancy thab =n hers, I find it reprehensible in the truest sense of the word.

And she will have the fate of my beautiful, precious, oonly child in her hands. And she didn't even give a care about her own. :mad:

17. Indeed. Trying to pick just one of Disastsarah's decisions is like
the Sophie's Choice of horrible personhood.

5. Blocking partner benefits.
That's the kind of nasty leadership we don't need -- it's just plain mean.

I think she must have a real cruel streak.

6. That she tried to ban certain books from the town library
I think her AIP affiliation is by far the most damaging story with the national electorate. But on a personal basis, anyone who tries to ban reading materials from a library is the lowest of the low in my opinion.

9. That would be my choice too
Shutting down free speech is an exercise in futility... and stupidity.

7. Hid scientific evidence to keep polar bears off the endangered species list.
She use her position to hide scientific evidence and then lied about it. That's exactly like shrub. That's despicable.

11. They are all bad, but the fact that she acted so irresponsible regarding
the birth of her son, endangering his life and her own, shows me that she doesn't have the respect for life that she claims to have. How can she be trusted with decisions involving someone else's life?

19. Hear, hear!
The GOP has raped the Constitution and now wants to place an AIP supporter one heartbeat away from the Presidency. If John McCain values the years he spent in Congress to get to this point in his career, he'll dump Palin or disclose her other shortcomings.

16. Other, Her husband's role as shadow Governor.
As unqualified as she is to become President when McSame kicks it, her back seat driving husband is even less qualified.

20. That she used her daughter as a political pawn as you noted in the "green"
Edited on Tue Sep-02-08 01:54 PM by mzmolly
answer. She apparently announced her daughters pregnancy (real or not) to deflect questions about the birth of her "son" Trig.

If this IS a cover-up for Trig actually being Bristol's son, and a *cough* miscarriage is announced later, it's unimaginable.
