Can't we all just get along?

Why should I take Palin to task for stealing from the Democrat playbook?

Oh, that's rich.
Almost as good as your continued assertion that Bush actually won Florida in 2000.

Keep up the good work.

Really.

Okay, let's get started, then, with the Bush/Hitler/Nazi stuff.

Next let's talk about this:

"Robert Bork's America is a land in which women would be forced into back-alley abortions, blacks would sit at segregated lunch counters, rogue police could break down citizens' doors in midnight raids, schoolchildren could not be taught about evolution, writers and artists could be censored at the whim of the Government, and the doors of the Federal courts would be shut on the fingers of millions of citizens for whom the judiciary is -- and is often the only -- protector of the individual rights that are the heart of our democracy... President Reagan is still our president. But he should not be able to reach out from the muck of Irangate, reach into the muck of Watergate and impose his reactionary vision of the Constitution on the Supreme Court and the next generation of Americans. No justice would be better than this injustice."

That's your boy Kennedy talking (for the record, no less) about you-know-who.

A summary of that event is provided by the term which has come to define it:

Borked - as in "to be".

Read on (I have emboldened a select part of this):

"Bork" or "Borked" as verb

William Safire of The New York Times attributes "possibly" the first use of 'Borked' as a verb to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution of August 20, 1987. Safire defines "to bork" by reference "to the way Democrats savaged Ronald Reagan's nominee, the Appeals Court judge Robert H. Bork, the year before." [16] This definition stems from the history of the fight over Bork's nomination.[9] Bork was widely lauded for his competence, but reviled for his political philosophy. In March 2002, the word was added to the Oxford English Dictionary under "Bork"; its definition extends beyond judicial nominees, stating that people who bork others "usually [do so] with the aim of preventing [a person's] appointment to public office." Perhaps the best known use of the verb to bork occurred in July 1991 at a conference of the National Organization for Women in New York City. Feminist Florynce Kennedy (she's, uh, black) addressed the conference on the importance of defeating the nomination of Clarence Thomas to the U.S. Supreme Court. She said, "We're going to bork him. We're going to kill him politically. . . . This little creep, where did he come from?"

Buncha libs, kicking the poor black guy around their little senate committee.

No doubt a prolonged moment of pride for the liberal movement, eh?

Thomas was - magically - confirmed, and went on to hear a chorus of boos, led by black columnist Julianne Malveaux who found the bile to say this:

"I hope his wife feeds him a lot of eggs and bacon so he has an early heart attack and dies."

And the libs laughed about it.

Here's another really good one courtesy of Joe Biden (you know who he is, and he's not black) on the same occasion:

"I think the only reason Clarence Thomas is on the court is because he's black. I don't believe he coulda won had he been white. The reason is I think it was a cynical ploy by President Bush."

That's what you voted for.
