Erick Erickson RedState.com Misleads Readers and Overstates Palin September Deadline from JaKe Tapper Interview
Erick Erickson at RedState.com overstated Palin September Deadline and misled his readers many of whom are too busy to really look into the details to verify everything he writes or insinuates. We just want to trust Erick to tell us the truth without hyperbole or melodrama.
He misled his RedState.com readers by overstating Palin's position on when candidates in general should enter the Presidential Race.
Erick, you overstated Palin...perhaps to the point of putting words in her mouth. Then you act like a jerk about it--like a teenage punk on the hour every hour--and then whine about it when people attack you (I'm not defending inappropriate responses or attacks on you by any means).
PALIN: I still think it's early. I think it's too early. And I think that there's still plenty of time for not just me, but others to -- to consider jumping in the ring.
TAPPER: So by next month?
PALIN: I think that, practically speaking, that has to be kind of a drop-dead timeline.
So she refers to others generically up front (including herself to some degree in there...but she brought candidates in general into the scenario even putting the generic scenario for all candidates at the forefront) and then says "that has to be a KIND OF drop dead timeline."
1. in the context of referring to candidates in general
2. She said it was KIND OF a deadline
3. She did not absolutely say it was her personal deadline either.
All this does not justify your hour on the hour tantrum. You lost so much credibility by people who happend to have been big supporters of you and who also love Perry besides. I mean Palin and Perry overlap on 95% of conservatism no? And you then you treat Palin like the enemy.
Shame on you for misleading people and now you're probably lack the integrity to post my reply outright as it's own piece to clarify to your readers who didn't have time to see the details but were taking you at your word up front---because in the past we could trust you.
I hope to trust you again, Erick.
