"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."

>>I believe the poster you are addressing has already stated that she doesn't think factcheck is a credible source.<<
When people will believe random and obviously biased web sites and choose (CHOOSE) to not believe a site that is up front about where they get their money from and who they are AND are just as likely to criticize the democrat candidate as the republican candidate, then it shows a critical thinking flaw. IOW, it's the faulty reasoning of "if you don't agree with me then you must be wrong."
FWIW, as much as I enjoy certain liberal flavored sites, I do not look to them for hard facts.

How is that possible when NASA is a government agency?
I only asked one question twice.
All the other candidates have produced documents when asked for them.
Sarah Palin was asked for her medical records a week ago and she has yet to produce them. Should we come up with some conspiracy theory as to why she hasn't done that yet, too?

I disagree with you, but I'm pretty sure
