“It’s unbelievable. Unbelievable,” said Palin on Wednesday evening while appearing on Sean Hannity’s Fox News program. “No administration in America’s history would, I think, ever have considered such a step that we just found out President Obama is supporting today. It’s kinda like getting out there on a playground, a bunch of kids, getting ready to fight, and one of the kids saying, ‘Go ahead, punch me in the face and I’m not going to retaliate. Go ahead and do what you want to with me.’
Now, I must give credit where credit is due. This came from the blog that is not to be mentioned.
Aside from that, Palin, as usual, has foot in mouth disease. How do you RETALITATE against legislation that was passed by a majority of Congress. I do believe the Republicans, who passed a pantload of legislation for themselves from 2001 to 2007 would be screaming "TRAITOR" if someone put up this big of a fuss.

Larry, I decided to see if I could find confirmation of that quote (since we know that she-who-will-not-be-named isn't above misquoting). Disregarding a bunch of right-wing blogs, I found this one: The Misguided Nuclear Talking Points. ... Listening to the children who speak for the Republican Party in 2010 talk about nuclear policy is a truly depressing exercise. Given the importance of the issue, and the interest in this morning's developments in Prague, it's worth noting reality.
It is, alas, in short supply on the right. Former half-term Gov. Sarah Palin described the administration's nuclear policy this way yesterday: "It's kinda like getting out there on a playground, a bunch of kids, getting ready to fight, and one of the kids saying, 'Go ahead, punch me in the face and I'm not going to retaliate.'" ...
The Washington Post item refers to a Daily Kos article (Hyperventilating Over President Obama's Nuke Policies) that discusses Republican myths about the treaty and policy and concludes, ... Military leaders, policy experts, and a variety of others who are literate on the subject have made it clear that the right-wing arguments have no foundation in reality. ...
So now we know..... :-)
Won't someone rid us of this meddling Alaskan?
Be careful-- we wouldn't want to be seen as advocating violence! [giggle]
