    You probably do not have the capacity to have these sorts of debates with me, so I'll just give you a suggestion: perhaps you should read what I wrote. My condemnation of your post has nothing to do with a comparison of Palin or Kincannon to people like Maher or Louis CK. It has to do with your hypocrisy in claiming people like Louis CK get a pass for the same inflammatory rhetoric you claim outrage over with Kincannon - because you claim that they're not directly involved in politics :)roll:), but you are more than willing to attack PF posters for rhetoric, even though they're not directly involved in politics either.

    But please: keep contorting yourself with your mental gymnastics. It's enjoyable to us to further reduce you in your own eyes.

    This on its face is a meaningless distinction. Why would the level of involvement in politics have to do with whether or not a statement is despicable?

    I cannot find where this guy is in charge of Tea Party...anything. He did some work with the GOP. Anyone got some info?

    Regardless, I don't like what he said. While I disagree with Wendy Davis on all fronts and agree politically with Kincannon, everything I now know about them lead me to conclude both are vile human beings.

    Now, anyone had info on his leadership in the Tea Party?

    Bump

    Has anyone found where this guy is a leader for the Tea Party? Or is this just a way to tag him as one, and tear down the Tea Party? Really, I'm just asking. I really don't know...haven't found anything.

    Some totally anonymous a$$hole on the internet said some mean things about Wendy Davis. Why in the world the left considers this even remotely newsworthy is a complete mystery.

    I mean, is that what we're doing now? Taking the tweets of anonymous nobodies online and reposting them here as if it's somehow newsworthy?

    I see nothing in Kincannon's bio or posts about any involvement in TEA Party anything. This is made up by dishonest liberals.

    Quit making crap up. This isn't degrading to women. This is degrading to Wendy Davis, who did a more than ample job of degrading herself through her actions.

    If anything, you could claim that Wendy Davis degraded women, by doing things that most women would be extremely ashamed to admit.

    You're claming Davis is NOT "pro-abortion", in addition to being a known, proven liar?

    She LEFT HER CHILDREN, and her husband raised them, as he was AWARDED CUSTODY, by the court.
    Davis is not The Universal Women; she's a LYING PROG, who has been exposed.

    I hate to see you making up complete nonsense:



    "It's one of the most striking details in Texas State Senator Wendy Davis's life uncovered by Dallas Morning News reporter Wayne Slater: in 2005, Davis, apparently eager to advance her career, relinquished custody of not just her child with her second husband, Jeffry Davis, but also her first child from another marriage.
    "It's not a good time for me right now” Davis said at the time, explaining her decision, according to Jeffry Davis.

    Wendy Davis's first daughter Amber, born during her first marriage to Frank Underwood, was 23 at the time – an adult. Her daughter with Jeffry, Dru, was 17.

    The Tarrant County Court granted the divorce on November 15, 2005, giving Jeffry Davis "the exclusive right to designate the primary residence" of Dru.

    Wendy Davis was given weekend visitation rights and required to pay $1,200 per month in child support to her ex-husband. "

    Meet Todd Kincannon. This tall drink of water is the former executive director of the South Carolina Republican Party, an attorney, and the community organizer of something on Twitter called the Twitter Gulag Defense Network

    What a pathetic reply. Where did I claim that she was not pro-choice. She got her national attention BECAUSE she was pro-choice.

    Only fools would say discrepancies in a profile makes someone a "proven liar".

    Daughters Dru and Amber published letters this week asserting that Davis did not abandon them, that she was a great mother, and other matters that were never in contention but make Davis sound good.

    Dru and Amber Davis released letters individually Monday challenging the assertion that they had been "abandoned" by their mother after she divorced Dru's father, attorney Jeffry Davis. The letters intend to tug at the heartstrings with the same story Davis asserted was true of her ascent to Harvard Law School. Dru Davis focuses almost exclusively on the idea that her mother was not there for her. "Sadly, I feel the need to be crystal clear on the malicious and false charge of abandonment as nothing could be further from the truth," she writes, explaining that she could not live in Massachusetts with her mother during her term at Harvard because of her asthma, and her mother "miss[ed] so many classes so that she could be with us."

    Amber Davis's letter gets closer to the heart of the lies surrounding her mother's backstory. Condemning as "a shame that those who don’t know us feel the need to comment on the details of our lives as if they’ve lived them," Davis's oldest daughter argues that the specifics of the story are just not that important. "Yes, we lived in a trailer," she confirms. "Does it matter how long? Not to me." She also clarifies that she believes that the most important fact regarding who paid for her mother's education is not that basic fact, but "the fact that she was accepted to Harvard Law School, a dream she believed was unachievable." She adds without irony that she does not believe her mother "gives herself enough credit sometimes."

    I personally know people that go to bat for there dead beat dads.. Why because you only have on father or mother in this case. Nevermind the chances those two are going to have at life if she wins that election.

    Their words do not change what was said during the divorce hearings.
