Palin gets a thrill out of killing, congressional candidate says

Green Party congressional hopeful Steve Fournier of Hartford wrote this recently:

Ever run over a squirrel or a raccoon with your car? Do you remember musing at the time that that little critter was alive and sentient and then suddenly it wasn’t and being a little sad about it. Sarah Palin doesn’t get sad about that sort of thing. Rather, she gets a thrill when she ends the life of an animal, and the thrill is bigger when the animal is bigger. Given the joy with which she kills, do you think she’d hesitate to shoot and skin you if you gave her half a reason?

He's kidding, right? Fishermen get a big thrill out of catching fish, the bigger the better. Does that mean they're gonna mount anyone who gets in their way over the fireplace?

Sounds like Mr. Fournier is another one of those men who are intimidated by strong women. If Mr. McCain's running mate was a man, the fact that HE liked hunting would be a non-issue.

I wonder if Mr. Fournier gets all teary eyed when he's firing up the grill for those juicy steaks that used to be living critters? Give me a break. Sorry, but I'll take a VP who hunts over a VP who lies and plagiarizes any day.

Gee Steve that's not an "incendiary" remark. But I guess it's OK because Palin isn't your buddy.

Sorry but I believe you are truly a hypocrite (albeit maybe a good-hearted one).

Gee, I thought it was an incendiary remark, one that I thought some of you might like to know about.
It's true, though, that Sarah Palin isn't my buddy. I've never even met her.

Dick Chaney hunts and shot a human and that is okay? Gie us a break! because a woman can handle a gun and likes hunting doesn't mean she gets a "thrill out of killing" isn't it men who call hunting a "sport?"

At least she can drive across a bridge without killing her companion like Ted the swimmer.

Go sit in a tree left wing wacco.

Yes, Sarah Palin hunts animals, but she didn't kill her own child, as many people do when their unborn babies are diagnosed with Down's Syndrome. I think she has shown her respect for life. So, let's get back to real issues. Who the heck is this Biden guy? I know all of Sarah's kids' names, her complete resume, what she does for fun, what color lipstick she wears, what her parents' living room looks like, but I don't know one thing about her opponent. Where is he from?

Yeah, good old Ted...it's okay to leave a girl in the water, but don't you dare put windmills there!

I'd love to be a deer, running through the woods naked while Palin hunts for me...

What's the difference between Dan Quayle and Sarah Palin?

Lipstick.

if you understood anything about hunting you would realize it is needed to keep the populations down. the animals would starve to death. we don't kill them we harvest them. venisen tastes great
