Suggested Smears for Palin’s Chambliss Stumping

Georgia’s Jim Martin is locked in a run-off with Sen. Saxby Chambliss after the incumbent failed to win a majority in the November 4 general election. New favorite GOP attack dog Sarak Palin has been beckoned down from her snowy domain and asked to “close” the campaign for Chambliss. That’s good news for Sarah, since one of the nation’s most luxurious Neiman-Marcus stores is on some Peachtree Drive or another on Atlanta’s northside.

Now by all appearances Jim Martin seems a pretty stand up kind of guy–20 years in the Georgia legislature, an elder in the Presbyterian church, a solid 38-year-marriage with kids and grandkids, none of whom turned gay or got pregnant out of wedlock.

But sweet Sarah is known for making suggestions about the darker side of political candidates by putting forth innuendo in the form of theoretical dots unsophisticated voters then connect into sinister portraiture.

So what could Palin imply is Jim Martin’s deep, dark imaginary secret? Did you know he has ties to
Palestinian terrorists?! GASP! (wink)

During the 2007-2008 interregnum in his political career, Jim Martin served as an Executive Fellow at Georgia State University’s Andrew Young School of Policy Studies.

Andrew Young–famed civil rights activist, former US Congressman and Atlanta mayor–was the nation’s first black ambassador to the UN, a position he was forced to resign in 1979 after secretly meeting with representatives of the Palestinian Liberation Organization. Jimmy Carter was in the midst of negotiating peace between Israel and Egypt, but Young reportedly conferred with the PLO without the President’s authorization and in contravention of US law.

So Young palled around with terrorists and Martin served in his eponymous academic department, therefore Jim Martin has ties to Palestinian suicide bombers.

Shouldn’t Jim Martin have to publicly explain his association with terrorists? If he has nothing to hide, why hasn’t he cleared the air on this matter of critical importance? Can we really trust Jim Martin?

This makes no sense whatsoever, but neither does much of the conspiracy-mongering that became a staple of Palin-style GOP campaigning in this past election cycle.
