PoliCHARTZ - Thread of U.S. Politics & the Presidential Election

[Final-Fan]

Palin sez: Abortion clinic bombers are not necessarily terrorists.

I'm tempted to put that one in my sig. REALLY tempted.

On the other hand, where's the rest of that video?  I want to see if she caught herself and said, "oh, wait.  Yes they fucking are."  Or rather (since I know that didn't happen) I want to see if she said ANYTHING to mitigate the awfulness I saw.

[edit:  Here's her "full" answer:

Brian Williams: Is an abortion clinic bomber a terrorist under this definition?

Sarah Palin: [Sighs] There’s no question Bill Ayers, under his own admittance, was, um, one who sought to destroy, er, our US Capitol and our Pentagon. That is a domestic terrorist. There’s no question there. Now, others who would want to engage in harming innocent Americans or facilities, that, uh, er, that would be unacceptable. Uh, I don’t know if you’re going to use the word “terrorist” there, but it’s unacceptable and, uh, um, it, er, would not be condoned, of course, on, on our watch, but [sigh] I don’t know what you’re asking is if I regret referring to Bill Ayres as an unrepentant domestic terrorist. I don’t regret characterizing him as that.

Brian Williams: I’m just asking what other categories you would put in there. Abortion clinic bombers, protesters in cities where fires were started, molotov cocktails were thrown, people died.

Sarah Palin: I would put in that category of Bill Ayers anyone else who would seek to campaign to destroy our United States Capitol and our Pentagon and would seek to destroy innocent Americans.

[She literally cannot bring herself to call someone who bombs an abortion clinic in the same category, domestic terrorism, as someone who bombs the Pentagon.]
