&quo...UPDATE - GOOD NEWS JUST IN FROM CAFE PRESS!!<br /><br />"Thank you for contacting CafePress.com!<br /><br />This morning we made the decision to remove all Psalms 109:8 designs from CafePress.<br /><br />The public debate started with questioning if the design was simply intended to be criticism of the President or something much worse. The discourse was surprisingly civil online, given the heated nature of the topic. Given that, and the positions of groups like the ACLU and the Anti-Defamation League, we decided to let the dialogue play out publicly before making a final decision.<br /><br />Last night we posted a poll on our blog, read through the emails we’ve received and weighed the nature of the calls we’ve received on the topic. In the process we also learned that many of the original designers of the Psalm 109:8 designs had already decided to remove them on their own.<br /><br />General consensus has proven that the design does point to a broader interpretation of the Psalm and thus has been deemed inappropriate for sale at CafePress.<br /><br />We try to create an atmosphere of self-expression. Many of the things we encounter are not black and white, but grey. When the dialogue is civil, we want to let the larger community work things out rather than making an uninformed ruling. The dialogue has played out and common sentiment has reached agreement – this merchandise is not appropriate.<br /><br />Thank you all for your input."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-56121788883344869.post-41574759031387641062009-11-20T21:37:18.419+01:002009-11-20T21:37:18.419+01:00Patrick,

Palin is not an republican. She is only using it as a cloak. I have republican friends whom totally disapprove of the Palin, Rush, Beck rhetoric. In fact they tell me it is embarrassing to the party. Yes they voted McCain because of their fear of losing their guns. We recently spoke about the health care reform bill, and until I painted the picture of what I pay for health care, they all wish they could pay the same. Knowledge is power. There is no hope for the extreme christians, and again not all christians share their positions. Palin will fall, and when she does she will take the others down with her. Lets talk about the lies in her book, and the wite-out. She is trying to distract us by talking nonsense politics. The witeout story is a cover-up for someone getting ready to let the cat out of the bag. Please stay focused on what makes her nervous. I do believe she had an abortion! No medical billing specialist would send a wited-out bill. So either she did it herself, or she is making it up to gain sympathy. Either way she is mentally ill. So what else is new, she was for abortion before she was against it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-56121788883344869.post-60435133602467322842009-11-20T14:37:23.185+01:002009-11-20T14:37:23.185+01:00Guys, if you are prepared to be nauseated enough t...Guys, if you are prepared to be nauseated enough to skip breakfast/lunch, go look at the 20/20 teaser article on ABC news.<br /><br />I am serious about being nauseated.<br /><br />I'm so effin sick of poor Trig being exploited.hannahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-56121788883344869.post-78104132145321825832009-11-20T14:33:39.027+01:002009-11-20T14:33:39.027+01:00...you see how the main body of your blog is on th......you see how the main body of your blog is on the left hand side?...thats really bad man. <br /><br />====<br />A person that writes as poorly as the above should realize that their artistic advice might be mocked.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-56121788883344869.post-79138430716272560422009-11-20T14:29:13.828+01:002009-11-20T14:29:13.828+01:00"Pastor" Steven Anderson is that idiotic..."Pastor" Steven Anderson is that idiotic Right Wingnut who taunted the Border Police in Arizona (with video camera in tow) so many times that they finally arrested him for resisting inspection of his vehicle.<br /><br />For about a week he was the poster boy for the Pharasitical Patri-Idiotical "Resistance," before they moved onto other idols.

After The Associated Press and The Fayetteville Observer protested, Col. Billy Buckner said the post would permit restricted access.<br /><br />A small pool of reporters will be allowed to view and document the event but will be barred from the interviews. The public will be allowed.<br /><br />AP Associate General Counsel Dave Tomlin called the proposed pools and restrictions on interviews "unlawful and unacceptable."<br /><br />"If Army regulations forbid 'political events', the Army should have considered that before allowing Palin to hold a public autograph session for a political book on the base," Tomlin said.<br /><br />Palin has agreed not to give a speech, McCollum said.

I am certainly not "in the ...@ C'mon Levi,<br />I am certainly not "in the know" about the inner planning of this "book tour", but the reason I keep putting it in quotes is because the press has been reporting that this "tour" is very much like a "campaign". <br /><br />Examples of reasons they gave for that conclusion:<br /> <br />-bus looks like a campaign bus, with her picture and branding. <br />-she has advance people at the locations, just like a campaign<br />-she is disembarking the bus onto a stage, greeting the crowd in her typical campaigning garb: red blazer, black skirt, high heel pumps <br />-Trig has apparently recovered from his sniffles sufficiently to be carried out by her when she greets the crowd on the stage, before she hands him off to an aide. So she's back to using him as a prop...<br />-police officers hired for crowd control<br />-the cities and states she is going to are NOT typical book tour cities, but instead are battlegrounds from the last election, and she started in Michigan, the state she was so unhappy that the campaign pulled out of<br />-the bus has the SarahPac logo and info on the side and donations are suggested<br />-she is apparently bringing along some of the people who were loyal staffers for the VP section of the McCain campaign<br />-she is doing a media blitz of interviews that seem to promote her future possible political ambitions just as much as they promote the book. <br />-many people are showing up for the book signings wearing "Sarah for President" "Sarah 2012" and similar T-shirts and other swag promoting Sarah for president.<br />-oh, and one more thing: in the stop today she has suddenly started using her more "folksy" accent, which had gone missing in the Oprah and BW interviews.<br /><br />It would be interesting to know just how this tour is getting paid for: publisher, some split with the publisher, or perhaps SarahPac. After all, she doesn't really need a bus or advance staff etc to do a book tour... And it seems like if this IS being paid for by a PAC, that could make it even more inappropriate for her to be taking the tour to Fort Bragg.<br /><br />I am with you. I don't know why she is being allowed to even enter Fort Bragg. Soldiers aren't supposed to be involved in overtly political activities, and I suspect that there is a fear that some soldiers violate this and that the press would capture it on tape. But it makes NO sense that the press somehow would turn it into a partisan event. It makes a lot more sense to keep her out of there if they think it could turn into grandstanding against the Commander in Chief. If military discipline is really so poor that they have fears of grandstanding against President Obama, something needs to be done about it, and the last thing they need is a visit from somebody who stirs the pot the way Wite-out Palin does.<br /><br />And don't even get me started on her wanting to go to Fort Hood... That is so inappropriate at this time I can't stand to think about it.ArmchairJanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06227611891127796064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-56121788883344869.post-76152876614988899792009-11-20T06:46:37.332+01:002009-11-20T06:46:37.332+01:00Distraction, the pigs are fine, the site is clean ...Distraction, the pigs are fine, the site is clean and professional looking.

These days it can take a while to "make the rounds" of my favorite blogs - traffic is way up!<br /><br />I wouldn't be surprised to have the 'wite-out' people come around wanting us to knock off using the name of their product to describe Palin - might not want their reputation lowered like that ;-)<br /><br />For some reason I was just getting the mental image of Wite-out Palin sitting at the table with her crew of helpers seated with her, kind of like the Waltons at dinner. Except instead of food, they have big piles of email to scrub, and Sarah saying "Todd, would you pass me that wite-out, gotta 'nother bad one here". No wonder hardly any of the FOIA requests have been fulfilled.<br /><br />If she ever gets that far, I am NOT letting up on the wite-out issue, even if they make us call it liquid eraser. It's not as catchy, but it still gets the point across. Sarah's "wite-out bill" story has got to be either a complete fabrication, or little Miss Wite-out was the one who did the alteration of the bill.<br /><br />Normally I would think an abortion was no one else's business, but not when the person who seems to be hiding something they did is willing to take that choice away from everyone else.ArmchairJanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06227611891127796064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-56121788883344869.post-82601675635020609962009-11-20T06:35:19.447+01:002009-11-20T06:35:19.447+01:00Posts that are very hostile to the President often...Posts that are very hostile to the President often remain on her OFFICIAL site while comments not 'adulatory' in nature about Palin are deleted. <br /><br />Since some are deleted, we know there ARE Moderators, therefore, those that remain against the President can be seen to be endorsed by Palin. <br /><br />There are also many links to offensive websites ... which can also be seen to be endorsed by Palin.
