[OFB Cafe] Time Magazine and NY Times on Sarah Palin

[Chris Olson]

From: Fred Smith 


  The only thing in Palin's speech that was true was her name, and even that's questionable.


Here's a copy of the letter I sent her yesterday:

Mrs. Palin,

I enjoyed your speech at the Republican National Convention for its strong delivery, regardless of its innuendo and lack of meaningful content.  However, there was a single serious issue that stood out above all others; You announced that your son, Track, is deploying to Iraq on September 11.  Revealing a serviceperson's deployment date is a breach of all branches of the US Military's Operational Service Procedures.  Doing it on primetime television is grossly irresponsible, especially for a government official.

Regards,
