How is that any different than the claim you guys make all the time that the war in Iraq means the terrorists are going over there to attack us?


Granted you can certainly give her the benefit of the doubt based on those comments that are sort clear. Kind of like Cheney always invoking 9/11 when discussing Iraq. Never directly connecting the two, but making a strong implication.

But Ok, i'll play. So giving her the benefit of the doubt this time, how then do you explain away her not only doing it this time, but on another occasion? On Thursday Sept 11, 2008, during an address to her son's army unit, Sarah Palin made the charge that Iraq was responsible for the tragedy of September 11, 2001. From The New York Times:

 Quote:
"You'll be there to defend the innocent from the enemies who planned and carried out and rejoiced in the death of thousands of Americans," she told the soldiers. "America can never go back to that false sense of security that came before September 11, 2001."


Ascribing no motives, asking you to draw no conclusions, I offer a simple factual correction. From the source least likely to make this claim erroneously:

 Quote:
"We have no evidence that Saddam Hussein was involved with the 11 September attacks." - George W Bush, Sept. 18, 2003


Given the fact that McCain is running on "change". How do reconcile the fact that she's playing the same word tricks as Dick Cheney?

"Change" indeed.



Sincerely, retarded fucknut.
