I used to run. Maybe I need to start again and offer to go running with her, leaving Sullivan to snivel stupidly about torture again on the Diane Rehm show on NPR.

I&#39ve posted my opinion before to lots of backlash. But here goes... To those of you who expound so emotionally and negatively about Sarah Palin, if you want her to go away, then stop writing about her! Her only claim to the front page is the vitriol of those against her. She continues to play us like cheap fiddles. Ignore her, and she will wither away.

Of course it would. And no doubt his supporters would say how petty this is to even be discussing. We would have the exact same discussion; its just that the parties would switch sides.

jchem, it wouldn&#39t be the exact same discussion, because nobody on the Left *really* thinks that Palin&#39s disrespect of the flag means that she&#39s anti-American, communist, terrorist, or any of the other epithets thrown at Obama. A picture such as this with Obama would serve as "proof" of every right-wing conspiracy theory out there. The only "proof" that the left draws from this picture is that she&#39s careless.

Yes, many are sticklers for that sort of thing. I call them lunatics.

I agree with what Jchem said, including what he said about Sullivan&#39s credibility.

I don&#39t actually have the impression that a lot of people are really aware of the nuances of the Flag Code, or care. (I am taking as evidence of this, by the way, my experience of living in the US in late 2001, in which effectively everybody had a flag and effectively nobody displayed it in a way I found not grating on the nerves due to my own moderate Flag Code fetishism.)

Mostly that photo leaves me at &#39Shrug. It&#39s not touching the floor.&#39

I heard today speculation that the UFOs that "disabled nuclear missile silos" may launch an attack if we bomb the moon, as we are apparently planning to do.

The only thing that bothers me about this is that it obviously a posed picture. It would have taken five seconds to drape the flag properly, which is generally common sense. It&#39s a mystery why someone would want to court a public outcry - unless they truly believe that there is no such a thing as bad PR.

Let&#39s just hope Joe Biden doesn&#39t want to get in on the sex symbol game.

If Obama had done this, it would be non-stop on Fox.

Of course it would. And no doubt his supporters would say how petty this is to even be discussing. We would have the exact same discussion; its just that the parties would switch sides.

I guess Sullivan&#39s quest to uncover the secret plot about Palin&#39s child has no effect on his credibility when he has anything to say about Palin. Perhaps we could be entertained to a Guest Voice by Michael Reagan complaining about Obama&#39s citizenship. Or better yet, someone can post about the "real story" about the twin towers falling down.

Two things:

1. This woman actually thinks that she has a chance at becoming President. She has been labeled an idiot by nearly the entire country including her own party, yet in her mind she is legend.

2. She thinks that she is attractive. Well, she does have Old Glory there ready to thrown over her face.
