Sarah Palin admitted Monday night that she never actually read the GQ interview that surfacedanti-gay, racist comments made by the star of "Duck Dynasty," which she staunchly defendedlast week as "free speech."

Fox News host Greta Van Susteren asked Palin if she took issue with the manner in which "Duck Dynasty" patriarch Phil Robertson made his comments, which Van Susteren characterized as "graphic" and "offensive," even if she agreed with the sustance of what Robertson said.
"I haven't read the article. I don't know exactly how he said it," Palin responded. "But what he was doing was in response to a question about a lifestyle he disagrees with, and yet he has said over and over again he doesn't hate the person engaging in a lifestyle he disagrees with."
The substance of Robertson's comments was that homosexuality is a sin -- one he equated with "bestiality." "Don’t be deceived," Robertson told GQ, paraphrasing the Bible. "Neither the adulterers, the idolaters, the male prostitutes, the homosexual offenders, the greedy, the drunkards, the slanderers, the swindlers—they won’t inherit the kingdom of God. Don’t deceive yourself. It’s not right.”
don't see the story here she doesn't read that was established in 2008 so i would think anything reported that she said was just comedy relief.
According to Palin's reasoning, she didn't have to read the interview to defend Robertson in the first place because the substance of his comments didn't matter. He was invoking the Bible, she said, so his critics are actually taking issue with Scripture itself.
that seems to be going around the republican table, all the faux scandals they created out of situations that happened last 5 years they testify and say "i don't know, i don't have any proof but....."  then they go on and accuse, damn, re-write the events with supposition and parade it around, spend exorbitant amounts in witch hunts that never come to fruition,
invent the crime then try to match it with the right Democrat mostly Pres. but ISSA always falls flat but the insanity gene in right wing makes him keep on like eventually he'll find something Pres. is doing, mean while how long are we going to tolerate this republican abuse?
