Where does the hate come from?

This is a late night blog of basic commentary and opinion. It all begins with a question I have posed to many liberal friends of mine.

Where does the hate come from?

From my experience and what I have heard, most of this hate is directed at Sarah Palin. To name a few of the things actual associates/friends have said;

- "Palin should be hung up and shot" (a. hateful, b.. hung up AND shot?!?!?)
- "Her entire family makes me want to vomit"
- "She is a stupid c**t"
- "She is an embarrassment to women"

WHAT?!?! Seriously? Where does this come from? How is it possible to have such hate for someone you do not even know and has only been in the "public eye" for 5 weeks?

Her children - what's wrong with them? We can accept Jamie Lynn Spears pregnancy at 16 and even pay her $1 million dollars to be on the cover of a magazine....so Bristol Palin is pregnant?! She's keeping and raising the baby, what a huge decision. And what a brave girl to do that in the public eye. Who are you to judge? Did you raise a child as a teenager? No... you probably think it's better to follow Obama and support a failed abortion leaving the baby in a soiled linen room breathing and dying ALONE.

I think she's a great woman. What has she done? The problem is she has done more than THEIR CANDIDATE... she;s been a real mayor, he hasn't.. she's been a real governor, he hasn't... she's been in charge of the Alaskan National Guard.. he hasn't.

But don't be down.... he did help "community organize" an organization... maybe you have seen them in the news... ACORN? Heard of them?

Point is.. I have NEVER called Barack Obama a terrorist, said I hated him, or that he should be "hung up and shot", I have only presented FACTS of his past history and voting record.

I know he is "the one" to you and the super candidate, but I have an open mind, and yours is closed. Next time you come to me saying "Go Obama", BACK IT UP. Tell me a policy you believe in, tell me a vote you support or a stance you stand behind. Then, and only then, will I RESPECT YOU as a voter and as an American.

PS - My best friend in the world is a liberal supporting Obama and I still love and admire her. However, she told me in a "not good" tone, "you and Elisabeth Hasselbeck should do lunch. Seriously." For the record, I ADORE and LOVE Elisabeth Hasselbeck.. to be attacked DAILY by 3 women and barely offered a voice is courage in it's finest.. I would be honored to have lunch with her anytime, anywhere.
