Libs: Answer this honestly please...?

Question

I see so many of you on here attacking Gov. Palin for the so-called skeletons in her closet.

When we tried to point out Obama's close relationship with terrorist William Ayers, the man who bombed NYC Police stations and the Pentagon with the intent to kill and mame innocent US citizens, we were told that was a "private matter." Nor were we given any answers surrounding Louis Farrakan and Rev. Writght.

Further, according to Obama himself spouses and children are "off limits" as political fodder.

QUESTIONS:

Do the "rules" apply to everyone but Obama?

Do ANY of Palin's skeletons amount to anything as severe as the two belonging to Obama that I mentioned above? - If so Name them and Explain.

Answer 1

I believe Palin's views on Abortion and Sexual Education reflect poorly on her when her teen daughter is an unwed mother.  

This "terrorist" you are speaking of is well-regarded in the academic community and lectures at Harvard.   40 years ago, he committed a criminal act in protest of an unpopular war.

Barack Obama has not committed any crimes.  

Answer 2

if Obama actually had a close relationship with Ayers, I would agree. He knew him. That's it!

Answer 3

To answer the first question, No, the rules do apply to Obama, and he has never pretended that they do not.

To answer the second question, IF the skeletons of Obama's that you talked about ACTUALLY EXISTED, then yes, they would be more severe than those of governor Palin's. Also, Obama himself has said that he will not use the issue of Palin's daughter to gain votes and he has never tried to do so. So my question to you is, Why do you feel the need to draw attention away from your own parties problems by creating  lies about Barack Obama?

Answer 4

'Obama's close relationship with terrorist William Ayers'

Debunked.  http://www.truthfightsback.com/site/smea...

Early in Barack Obama’s career, he attended one reception in his honor at Ayers’s house. So Ayers demonstrated support for Obama, not the other way around.  They also were separately asked by a charitable organization to serve on that organization’s board. And that’s it. There’s no friendship between the two, no relationship, no history of working together.

When you've served on boards, did you agree with everyone at the table?  Isn't that the cliche of boards, that there's always friction and disagreement, and some people you can't wait to see leave?

Answer 5

Enough with these allegations about Ayers. They were acquaintances, that's it.

Answer 6

All decent people, no matter WHO they're voting for, know that it's low-rent-trashy to focus attention on a kid just to get at the parent. So the people doing that here are just trash. So don't expect that sort to suddenly straighten up and act right. They're desperate at this point. Obama *himself* told them to shut up (it's a shame that he even needs to TELL them that), so if they're not going to play fair for Obama, they're not going to do it for you. And that's not to your discredit. You're dealing with the bottom-feeders here.

Obama's relationship with those gentlemen WAS a private matter, until he decided to run for President. These are/were people who really didn't care for the U.S. as most people know it. That is relevant to what Obama's views really are, as opposed to what he'll say to get elected. He could (and should) repudiate his sketchier past friendships in the name of country. Unless of course they could make trouble for him.

Anyone who's a grownup knows that it's just trashy to talk smack about ANY public figure's kid just to get at the parent. That's just LOW.

Answer 7

You're missing a fundamental difference between the Palin and Ayers purported scandals:  the basic fact of Palin's daughter's pregnancy, her husband's DUI, and the dispute about her executive appointments are all admitted by her.

If it weren't for her own admissions, these would be non-issues.

Answer 8

Sarah actually has skeletons. What you said about Obama is just speculation.

Answer 9

If you _proved_ all of these allegations against Obama none of it would mean anything to his followers. His promises to unburden them of responsibilities of life is all they care about. That he will have to enslave their fellows means nothing to them.

Answer 10

Do you really expect honest answers,Half the Obama supporters on this site believe he is the most honest man in the world all blinded by his Color

Answer 11

When Ayers was involved in his anarchy, Obama was in kindergarten. And Reverend Wright is angry at America, but it didn't stop him from serving this nation in uniform. Are you a veteran?

Answer 12

Obama is not close friends with Ayers or Farrakan

Answer 13

The rumors about Obama's are dismissed because they're RUMORS, fabricated completely by anti-Obama activists. The "skeletons" in Palin's closet are FACTS.

Answer 14

I agree, Palin's daughter and husband are not the issue, and I don't think they should be attacked.  Palin's highly questionable politics on the other hand, are totally the point.  I think you have us dems confused with you republicans, since you guys are the experts at mud-slinging and obfuscation;)

Obama was not closely associated with a terrorist, and he is not responsible for every black person's politics and opinions.  Why not stick to what he personally has done and says he is going to do?  That''s what I'm looking at with McCain.
