Smears, Lies and Politics…

It’s getting so you can’t keep track of all the smears, lies and half-truths about Sarah Palin without a scorecard… Michelle Malkin has the latest here and here.

I don’t even know what to say at this point… I don’t have a problem with hardball politics, we all know how the game is played and we accept it certain extent. Unfortunately all these smears, lies and half-truths about Governor Plain and her family go far beyond normal hardball politics though… It’s one thing to question a candidates record and/or qualifications, dragging his or her family through the mud is another matter. It’s unacceptable and I suspect most Americans are disgusted by it.
