They are DEFENDING the use of the term "blood-libel"
I might be willing to give her the benefit of the doubt if she said that she wasn't aware of what the term "blood-libel" meant, and apologized for using it. But noooooooo, rather than doing the right thing, once again her and her ilk are digging in their heels, and actually trying to DEFEND the use of that hateful phrase.

Go fuck yourself, Palin and all of your sycophant followers.

1. You can't fix stupid and these people wear their ignorance
and their sociopathy like merit badges.

2. Stupid AND stubborn is no way to go through life...

I liked the term I read in another thread, referring to her "verbal Incontinence".

You can't fix people like this, but you can get them into the Republican Party and the Fox network.

3. Never apologize, never explain
Retractions are for the weak, and Sarah Palin is strong! STRONG! STRO-O-O-O-O-O-ONG!

4. They defended Tony Snow's use of "Tar Baby," too.
(As did some here.)

So I'm not surprised.

5. Here's one right-winger's definition (caution, you'll want to throw something across the room):
Blood libel was exceedingly accurate, not only in reference to Palin but in reference to Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, conservative talk radio, and all members of the Tea Party.
The leftists in the media are committing libel against a group of peoples, that makes it blood libel.

8. Note to Domandred...
It's not libel if it's true.

6. Ask Eric Cantor how he feels about that.
I would love to see him twist slowly, slowly in the wind.

There was a guy on there talking about Palens speech this afternoon....He said it, meaning the dialogue was all but over, but she couln't leave well enough alone...his comment was "Stupid is as Stupid does" as Forest Gumps momma once said...not sure who he was but he sure got it right.
