Shortly after Bob and I were first married, I wanted a house so badly I could taste it. I was tired of living in an apartment. I had already lived here over a year, with my two preschool-aged boys, before we were married, and the place seemed much smaller after Bob moved in.

I just get confused.
The one thing that I want to insist on is that, as I travel around the country, the American people are a decent people. Now they get confused sometimes. You know, they listen to the wrong talk radio shows or watch the wrong TV networks, um, but they’re, they’re basically decent, they’re [...]

“She’s more a conservative man than she is a woman on women’s issues.”
That was the statement from a spokeswoman from the National Organization for Women about Republican Vice Presidential Nominee Sarah Palin.
