re: #308 haakondahl

Why doesn’t she have the common sense to respond with maturity? A glib little joke like that just legitimizes Kerry’s stupid comment.
Never wrestle with a pig. You’ll both get dirty, and the pig will enjoy it. How oddly inappropriate the after her experience vis-a-vis “lipstick on a pig” comments, she couldn’t have left this particular pig alone.

And the “pig” has responded with……

“Lately it’s been Vice President Cheney that everyone hopes would lose the cameras and go for a long leisurely hike on the Appalachian Trail. And good grief, if anyone thinks John Kerry is afraid of strong, smart women, they sure haven’t met his brilliant wife and two independent daughters. It sounds like getting crushed these last two election cycles cost some of these Republicans their sense of humor.”

Is Kerry now saying that he believes Palin is a strong, smart woman?

Would this response have come had Palin not initially responded to Kerry’s foolish statement?

What would the “mature” response have been?
