"Q: Is an abortion clinic bomber a terrorist, under this definition, governor?
PALIN: (Sigh). There’s no question that Bill Ayers via his own admittance was one who sought to destroy our U.S. Capitol and our Pentagon. That is a domestic terrorist. There’s no question there. Now, others who would want to engage in harming innocent Americans or facilities that uh, it would be unacceptable. I don’t know if you’re going to use the word terrorist there."

UGH UGH UGH. There are no words for the disgust I have for this woman. Anyone want to explain to me how clinic bombing ISN'T terrorism? Is this supposed to be her pandering to her "base"?
BTW, terrorist/terrorism:
"is violence against civilians to achieve political or ideological objectives by creating fear..."
www.wikipedia.odjechane.net/en/wiki/Terrorism.html
"is defined by the US Department of Defense as "the unlawful use of -- or threatened use of -- force or violence against individuals or ..."

This interview at least begs more questions - what if they wanted to bomb a Stater Bros.? What about an AIDS clinic? What if they wanted to bomb a food bank?
Good grief - how can we lead a "war on terrorism" when our leaders can't identify "terrorism" when they see it???
The woman is completely ignorant.
I feel the exact same way about Obama, the one who continues to hide documents from the American people.

Most people do not know what socialism is. If they did they would recognize the signs in speech and action by politicians.
Obama is Radical=Socialist = some day turns into a Communism...like in China, N.Korea, Cuba etc.....
All those "leaders" in all those countries have a different approach to that kind of system.
However, all of them are the same and = dictators.
so you believe that bombing one building is okay because they perform abortions, while bombing another building is not okay because they disagree w/the war?
i am not sure you are real clear on what socialism means either, all i am sure about is someone told you it is wrong.
i think for your own good you should step back from the computer and think about what you post.
