I am no grammar expert, and I am not 100% sure how the sentence would be broken down. All I know is that another way to view it would be to do like you did and put "Congress shall make no law..." in front of every clause.

Well, there are investigations going on right now in to Democrats who used the government to look in to Joe, simply for disagreeing with Obama. I think Palin brings up a good point that anyone who disagrees with Obama, seems to get smeared and attacked not only by the media, but by democrats in the government.




I disagree... it goes both ways and is the norm for anyone in the public eye. The problem was that Joe wasn't vetted for the public eye prior to being thrust into the fray.

There are ankle biters everywhere, and if you can't run with the big dogs, stay on the porch.

Conservatives are such crybabys.

Rush is Media, Sean is Media, Fox is Media, Savage is Media and they never miss an opportunity to smear Obama, Hillary, Bill or even Carter for that matter. AM radio talk is almost exclusively conservative and they are constantly whining about the MSM when they are a part of it. Man it up you bunch of *snip*.

Hypocrisy much?

I've noticed that too..they keep telling us they are not part of the mainstream media but they are totally part of it. I guess if you repeat a lie enough times it becomes a truth ?


Repetition never morphs a lie into the truth except for those that are ideologically challenged and actually hardwired to believe what they see as authority figures.

I guess palin does not know that the first amendment only prohibits US CONGRESS from making laws infringing upon those rights. How did the media exactly force congress into making a new law violating Palin's rights? lol

Defamation of character applies in this case.

Saying she is not smart or doesn't know what she is talking about is a derogatory remark.

*edit* for spelling

Yes, but for defamation of character to hold, one has to establish that the derogatory statements are untrue........
