He should have followed that up with the bacon, lettuce, and toast.

The fear and irrational hatred that Palin brings out on the Left is remarkable. While a healthy contempt for women has been a hallmark of the Dems since at least the Clinton Era, the swing towards violence is relatively new.
Fortunately, Palin seems more than able to handle the raving lunatics who have made careers out of attacking her.

"Fear and irrational hatred"? Gee, sort of like all of the conservatives who are attacking Obama for "taking over and destroying America" and comparing him to Hitler?

Here is a clue, since you really don't understand the liberal mindset: They don't "fear" Palin. The only thing "fearful" about her is the possibility that her empty head may, in some improbable fashion, find its way into the White House. And I don't think "hate" is really the right word, either -- I think people are just sick of her lies, hypocrisy, and many of her supporters (like you) who rush to her defense, as if she was a fragile ice princess ready to crack,

Democrats don't have a "healthy contempt" of women -- that is an outright bogus falsehood which flies in the face of Democrat voting records vs. Republican voting records on these issues. Democrats are MUCH stronger supporters of women's issues compared to Republicans. Didn't you see the video of the Republicans continually over-speaking the Congressional Women's Caucus when they wanted to speak on health care issues?

Clinton's infidelity had nothing to do with Democrats and their attitude towards women.

Palin can't "handle" anything. That is why she quit being governor. That's why, as the article states, she took no questions from reporters, and why the hair dresser who did her hair wasn't even allowed to speak to Pailn, unless "spoken to first." If she really could "handle this," then she wouldn't need her "valiant defenders."

I bet Sarah can sign a vast number of books. How long does it take her to make an "X"?

Violence and agression is always the answer whenever you disagree with someone's point of view. Isn't that correct, anti-war Leftists?
Regarding Palin and the tomatoes: Listen to yourselves! Look at your posts! You've become the VERY THING you say you stand against!

Karma....a woman who incites violence and ugliness in others has just been on the receiving end of what she inspires.

And when another situation arises where President Obama, Secty of State Hillary Clinton, Vice President Biden, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, etc. had been attacked what then?

Again, throwing harmless objects like tomatoes, eggs, pies (and now shoes) at polititians is traditional.

Yeah?

Well bigshot, why dont you stand at a distance of less than thirty feet while I send over a Nolan Ryan fastball tomato that has just been harvested from a field near Ceres,California in its Central Valley. You will find as you are in the ambulance headed for the ER with a shattered nose, a bloodied cornea, and broken teeth that the lowly tomato can pack a huge wallop even several days into ripening. This idiot should be tried for felony assault on a police officer and told to wash their squad cars for the next five years.''I Will Not Throw Tomatoes At Palin'' 100,000 times on the blackboard would also be a good use for this numbskull.

Throwing tomatoes, eggs and cream pies (and now shoes) at politicians is a time-honored tradition.

The man should not have been arrested.
