Sarah Palin and the "R" word

Sarah Palin's Poor Defense of Limbaugh


The only thing I really defended Sarah Palin for was when people talked about her "Down Syndrome baby" . She has a child who happens to have Down Syndrome. He is a child, not a label. I was happy to see that she was fighting against the misproper use of the word retard. Then she had to go and defend Rush Limbaugh for his use of the word. This, just a week or so after she demanded Rohm Emanuel be fired for misusing the word. Shared ideological viewpoints shouldn't be an excuse to overlook all bad behaviors and morals. Hopefully she'll realize this and call out Rush for what he did. Of course, this might upset Rush's self-proclaimed "ditto-heads" and make them not vote for Palin in any future posts she may run for...

I know! I thought that was so ridiculous. How can you bash a democrat for it and then excuse a republican?

You can't if you reason it out.
