Sarah Palin - Back to the Business of Annoying

Sarah Palin is the most repulsive, grotesque reactionary to enter the national political scene since Spiro Agnew. Please stop mentioning her.

Jessica, stick to ragging on starlets. You are way over your head talking about the Governor Of Alaska. For one, the clothes were donated by a well meaning, but misguided fellow name Jeff Larson from Minnesota. Governor Palin never asked for them. Since Jeff didn't know her sizes, he bought several, which is why he spent so damned much. Most of the clothes were never worn and remained in the belly of the plane, when the Governor went back home. As for the wales, I suggest you go learn something from some actual wildlife management people, not the loons at PETA. Governor Palin is highly thought of in the wildlife professional management community. She uses common sense, not knee jerk stupidity to govern. You forget that Palin is one of Alaska's wilderness' biggest cheerleaders. She is an avid outdoors woman. In her recent State of the State address she was extolling the virtues of the Alaskan nature, as she recommended folks get off the couch and go enjoy it. Since you, and your one reader seem to be completely clueless on the Governor, and her incredible career, let me help you: Everyone knows that Governor Palin started out as a PTA mom. Typical story. She just wanted to take an active role in her kid's education. At some point, she was convinced to run for a city council seat, which she did, and won. Then, Sarah ran for, and became Mayor of Wasilla. After two terms, she was term limited out. (something the US Congress needs, badly) Governor Palin then made a run at Lt Governor, but lost. She was then selected as Chairman of the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission. The AOGCC is the largest regulatory body of it's kind in the nation. It regulates oil and natural gas production. handles leasing issues, environmental issues, and the like. Governor Palin took a keen interest in ethics. Lots of issues both in the business, and her agency. It's a well known fact she cleaned house. But she also stood toe to toe with top executives from Exxon-Mobil, Conoco-Phillips, and BP. She helped change the relationship between the companies, and the state, for the better. Kay Cashman's book: "Sarah Takes On Big Oil" is a must read. It tells you all about it. You can read some of it at www.petroleumnews.com Inside the commission, there were issues as well. A quick trip to Wikipedia will give you more details, but both the Chairman of the Republican party, as well as the former Republican Attorney General were involved in some questionable deals. Both were forced to resign, not only from the commission, but from the party. The Chairman was hit with the largest fine of it's kind, in the state's history. Sarah Became Governor by taking down Murkowski by a landslide in the primary, and beating a former democrat Governor in the general election, also by a wide margin. In addition to being Governor, Palin serves as Chairman of the Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission, a multi-state government agency that promotes the conservation and efficient recovery of domestic oil and natural gas resources while protecting health, safety and the environment. Governor Palin is also the Chairman of the National Governors Association's Natural Resources Committee. Voted in by the other 49 Governors. Something else that people overlook, and this is key: Governor Palin is Commander-in-Chief of the only National Guard that is on permanent deployment. The 176th Wing, of the Alaska Air National Guard train with and is part of the United States Air Force. They are vital to our air defenses, and are the first line of defense should Russia, North Korea, or China decide they want to become aggressive. Recently, the 176th Wing was awarded for it's actions. It escorted 22 Russian Bear bombers out of US airspace. I'm sure you've read that Russia is flying the Bear again, and seeing what they can get away with. The award was for much more tough. http://www.176wg.ang.af.mil/news/story.asp?id=123091720 The 49th Missile Defense Battalion of the Alaska National Guard is the unit that protects the entire nation from ballistic missile attacks. It’s on permanent active duty, unlike other Guard units. As governor of Alaska, Palin is briefed on highly classified military issues, homeland security, and counterterrorism. As Governor Palin's position as CIC is rather unique, she has a rather high national security clearance as well. Something neither Obama nor Biden had prior to their win. She's also the Commander-In-Chief of the Alaska State Defense Force (ASDF), a federally recognized militia incorporated into Homeland Security's counterterrorism plans. Sarah Palin was the only candidate running in the general election that had any sort of executive experience. She's the only one who had ever had to sit and make hard decisions. To actually run a state, balance a budget, deal with ethics issues, and so forth. Governor Palin also has extensive foreign trade experience. Governors, that have something to export, routinely meet with foreign heads of state and work on extensive trade agreements. Again, something Obama and Biden have zero experience at. Governor Palin just hosted a delegation from nations that are direct trading partners with Alaska, including Sergey Kislyak is the newly appointed ambassador of the Russian Federation to the United States, who said: “I am so pleased to be here this weekend. “As discussed in my meeting with Governor Palin, it is encouraging to note the similarities between Alaska and the Russian Far East. Our EXISTING commercial connections and the mutually beneficial nature of our professional partnerships can only help provide a measure of stability as, together, we face the global economic challenges that lie ahead” Also at the meeting were Consuls General from the Russian Federation, United Kingdom, New Zealand, Hungary, Norway, South Korea, The Philippines, as well as representatives from Canada and China. "Members of the Alaska consular corps also participated, including: Karen Matthias, of Canada; Hideo Fujita, of Japan; Hee-chul Kim, of South Korea; and Jose Luis Cuevas, of Mexico. They were joined by honorary consuls of the Czech Republic, Poland, Finland, Seychelles, and Norway" Now, this is what Governors, who are the CEOs of their state, do on a fairly regular basis. In fact, in this one meeting alone, Governor Palin did more actual foreign trade policy work than Barrack Obama has done in his entire life! Governor Palin just signed the license to build the TransCanada natural gas pipeline. Something Alaska has been trying to do for 50 years. She went in, cleaned up the process and got it done. This is the largest infrastructure project in history. I would think college students would love this, because environmentalists do. Alaska is sitting on 400 TRILLION cubic feet of natural gas. That is more than all of the world's oil reserves! And natural gas is the cleanest burning fuel there is. It's almost zero emissions. Even better, every major car manufacturer makes cars that burn compressed natural gas, and have for decades. There are millions of trucks, cars, and buses in use daily. While every other politician TALKS a good game, Governor Palin just put the wheels in motion to make the United States completely energy independent, as well as clean and green! Just last week, Governor Palin announced that Alaska will not only meet the plan Mr Obama has for renewable energy, she will DOUBLE it! Obama wants to see America get 25 percent of it's energy from renewable resources. well, Alaska already gets 25 percent of it's energy from renewables! So, she has pledged to have Alaska get 50 percent of it's energy from renewables by 2025. She came from a middle class background, and knows what Americans face on a daily basis. She and her husband, Todd still own a small commercial fishing business. The season is quite short. But as time permits, you'll see her out there working the nets with the men. She'll bring in those big fish with the best of them. Once, she even refused to take it easy after she broke her wrist! She knows exactly what hard work looks like, and isn't afraid to take refresher courses from time to time Remember this: The man that liberals elected into office has never run a city, never run a state, never run a hot dog stand. That doesn't exactly instill tons of confidence. Handing Mr Obama the keys to the White House would be like taking the kid you hired to sweep the floors at McDonald's, and after a few weeks, making him the store manager! While I wish the man well, and would NEVER root against America, I don't see anything inspiring from this guy. Just not excited about a communist trying to do things that have failed everywhere they have ever been tried. I thank God that Sarah Palin is warming up in the bullpen! Mr Obama is channeling FDR and Jimmy Carter in his plans. You look those two up in the dictionary, and they'll come under epic failure! But Carter gave us 8 glorious years of Reagan. Mr Obama should give us 8 glorious years of Palin! I see her winning 49 state blowouts like Reagan did. In just 4 full days Obama has become an absolute joke! A rookie is is way over his head! Get used to seeing a whole lot of Governor Palin. Remember, 57 million people voted for her. And we are seeing Obama voters daily, who are having a serious case of buyer's remorse. In 4 years it will even be more.

Jessica, you really ought to warn people that your comment section doesn't break for paragraphs, so one can account for that!

gjackson3 is pushing against a rope. The American people are more interested in substance than a list of girl scout level accomplishments. We thusly made Obama president and sent the idiot Palin back to the tundra. Your other reader must be a member of the lunatic fringe religious right or else he/she would have abandoned the cause and worked toward finding someone within the party who is electable. Should oil prices plunge, Palin will be unelectable in Alaska as she finds the local economy in a shambles and an inability to "share the wealth" anymore. On a national level, no running mate in America's history did more to lose an election than Palin. Recent polls show that some 19 million disenchanted "Hillary Women" were set to pull the lever for McCain until they heard Palin speak at the convention. Afterwards, there was a mass jaw dropping and switch back to Obama. All she had to do was sound intelligent, leave the hockey mom bs at the door, offer some semblance of a strategy for our economy and national defense, and not mock Obama with childish or venomous rhetoric and she would have captured the Hillary Women. She did none of that. She was a total embarrassment to both the moderates in her party and the rest of the nation. Now to redeem herself and keep her name out there, she's on a Spiro Agnew type mission to criticize the press. Once again she plays the fool. If any right wing nut case thinks she can get past Jindal in the primary debates he ought to stop drinking the cool aid before it has a lasting effect. Palin is finished and America is spared the Palin winter,

Girl Scout level my ass!..........................This woman is the GOVERNOR of a state!.....the CEO!.....................I doubt you read the "girl scout list", because like most liberals, you lack intelligence.........How else would you explain a vote for Obama.........................You talk about a freakin' NOTHING......that's Obama. The guy has never run a city, never run a state, never even run a lemonade stand.....He has NEVER had a real job...........He is a complete and total rookie, who's great claim to fame in the Illinois Senate was voting "present" 144 times! Now that's leadership....rolls eyes....!...........Obama has proven in just 4 days that he is way over his head............As far as Governor Palin, her popularity is higher than Obama's........While Obama is about to destroy our economy, for good........Governor Palin has her budget under control......Her State of the State address Thursday was met with rousing applause.......You see, she has been handling budgets for nearly two decades now...........Not sure if Obama knows how to balance his checkbook!..............Governor Palin is probably the only governor in the entire nation who knows how to compute Net Present Value of Cash Flows and relate it to a state budget........ While others run massive deficits on stable revenue sources, Sarah has consistently run surpluses and took the simple step to save that money......... Even now as noted in her speech, Sarah is not going to spend that money, but will be cutting State expenses by 7%------- actual cuts ---------- not the political definition which means "leaving expenses as they are."...................The rest of the nation's governors might do well to take a little trip up to Juneau or Anchorage and get some education from Sarah on how it's done.........As far as "Hillary Women" being turned off by Palin, are you STUPID? ........That speech energized everyone who heard it.......In fact, McCain was hurting until she spoke......The GOP was hurting as well........No volunteers at the local offices........McCain is not well liked among conservatives, who are the base of the party..........In fact, many were staying home, because they absolutely HATE him............Lo and behold, after Palin's speech, record amounts of money poured in, and volunteers overwhelmed the local offices...........I deal with Republicans, and pissed off democrats daily, and absolutely every single one of them voted FOR Governor Palin, IN SPITE OF McCain.........Remember, she went to aid Saxby Chambliss in his run off vote................The democrats sent the big guns...Clinton even.....The Republicans sent everyone as well.....McCain, Rudy, Romney....and the rest..........Chambliss' last poll showed him to have a 5 point lead........as insurance he had asked Governor Palin to come....She flew in he day before the election.........In just 4 stops, she outdrew everyone from both sides combined, who had come to help their candidate, combined!....And she did this at EACH of the 4 stops!....the results? She turned Saxby's 5 point win, into a 16 point blowout!!!........so don't tell me anything...........You are obviously a typical uniformed liberal..........like I said, I doubt you read what I posted before.....because she has one of the most substantial resumes of any Governor in the nation, .........and damned sure more substantial than Obama's!!........I like Bobby Jindal, but he isn't in her league.....few are........That's why the Obots and the loser moderates in the Republican party are out there trying to hurt her........Let me let you in on a secret.....moderate Republicans are done. They are what has killed our great party........Every time the moderates try and take over, the put up losers like McCain, and we get killed. Look where McCain is now!....He's back to being a democrat again...........So is his boy Lindsay Graham..........Both need to go ahead and become democrats and get it over with!.......Republicans win when they run on strict conservative principals.........Always have, always will............Ronald Reagan won 49 state blowouts by being a true conservative.........So will Sarah Palin..........She is also a Reagan conservative........She has her fiscal act together....She knows real working Americans, and what they face..........She has the right moral values, and the right national defense experience.........Remember, until he became President, Governor Palin actually had a higher national security clearance....Hell Obama had ZERO national security clearance until he became President, other than the briefings Bush gave him access to, which has never happened before............I like that you misunderestimate her though........because that will just make her huge victory sweeter!............Obama is Jimmy Carter II, with the worst of FDR thrown in......He'll be one and done, then the 'Cuda will come in and clean house!

gjackson3, sorry to burst your bubble but I don't choose what to write (or not) based on over-reactionary comments by someone who values the ellipses more than common sense. Maybe you might feel better expressing yourself in your own blog or the user comments on any number of Sarah Palin fansites, instead of spewing ill-thought out vitriol on a website dedicated on the voices and opinions of informed young women who want to live in a better U.S.A. Because no one here is buying what you're selling. Cheers!

I agree with gjackson3. I can't say it better than she did. Sarah Palin is one of the few hopes that our nation has. We will have to wait 4 years before she becomes President. But when she does, she will do much to make our country great again.

Jessica, don't waste your breath on the right wing crazies. What they write is a veil over their main cause....anti choice. They think Palin will put in place judges that will overturn Roe v Wade. Fortunately, the American people are wise to faith based politics and will never allow themselves to be duped again. The good news is if the lunatic fringe is powerful enough to make Caribou Barbie the nominee, the Republicans won't regain the White House until 2025, after Hillary's second term. Let me now leave you laughing...imagine a Frost/Palin debate...ROFL

Did anyone on here ever wonder if Jessica wants Sarah Palin to go away, the best way to do it would be not to waste time smearing her? Jessica here are a couple of things you obviously did not think about. First, Gov. Palin gave back the clothes to the RNC and the RNC has them sitting in garbage bags, then isn't that really the RNC's problem and not Gov. Palin's? What do you expect her to do, drop everything fly over there and put them up on ebay herself? Second, I am certain it never occured to you that putting animals on the ESA, has the effect of moving local autonomy to Federal autonomy? Perhaps you did not know, that Alaska suffers from the Federal government controling the majority of their land. That means they cannot use it as they see fit. Alsaka is not like NY or LA. It is still very undeveloped, many people still have to live off the land. Many eskimo poplulation count on that inlet for fishing and survival, they cannot afford well meaning but ill informed beauracrats threating their way of life because they feel for "furry critters". I invite you to take a trip to Alaska http://www.state.ak.us/, learn something for yourself before making such ill informed judgements.

Thanks for posting Klyphton, but I have thought through all of those points (and both are covered in my referring links). I think you're confusing headline for content, and summary for exhaustive reporting. But cheers for sharing your views. Oh, and I HAVE been to Alaska (even have some good friends up there) - it's a pretty beautiful place.

Jessica.....Ill thought out vitriol?..........talk about delusional!...............Everything I posted was the honest truth..............I've been studying Governor Palin for a long, long time..........Well before she became the VP candidate.............I was however part of the Draft Sarah Palin movement back in 2007..............Our goal then was to make whoever the nominee would be, quite aware of her.............As a main researcher, I know more about her amazing life and career accomplishments than most............I've also researched Barack Obama with the same vigor......It's why I can speak to his career as well..............Here's the thing Jessica.......If you are gonna write outright lies and complete BS about Sarah Palin, you're gonna have folks come and set the record straight.............If you want to argue policy.....then fine........but to just print nonsense, and call it information will certainly cause folks to push back..............Remember, 59 million people voted for Sarah Palin.......I promise you they weren't voting for John McCain!............Those people know exactly who she is, and what she is about...........They are still quite enthusiastic about her..........in fact, there are various groups that are already geared up for 2010 and 2012........In 2010, She will be re-elected as Governor. Her state is one of the only in the nation that isn't broke!....She actually knows how to govern..........In 2012, frankly, ........it should be a cake walk...........Mr Obama has already proven why he had no business running at his age......He had never governed before..........He had never run anything of consequence, and never really had a job........His transition was a comedy of errors, and his days since his coronation have been just plain bad.............Just bad.........I hate it too, because I don't want America to fail............but if he is able to get his communist agenda through, it will indeed become a failed state..........I lived through Jimmy Carter, our worst President ever......And frankly, things were worse back then.......and yet, Mr Obama want to do insane things like FDR did in his day, which caused the Great Depression to last for almost a decade.........But let me leave you with this Jessica...........You say you aren't buying what I am selling, which means you are buying the truth about Sarah Palin........My guess is like dbarry, you didn't bother to read what was written anyway..........Here's my challenge to you from me.........stop the baseless lies and attacks, and debate some issues with me........We are sick of the liberal lies and hatred........I know a liberal's lifeblood is lies and hate.....but spare us, and debate some issues...........Name some actual policies you disagree with, and lets discuss them like adults......Sound fair?

Women are mean to other women when they feel "less than" therefore there is no logic to be argued here. Jessica simply feels inferior.

sarah palin is a breath of fresh air ---she's smart,dynamic,great mom,great wife,great governor and will be a great president in 2012--she's also hot and ugly woman hate her

Poor, poor Jessica, another pathetic wretch of a bottomfeeder, crying out for attention by attacking someone who has actually accomplished something in her life. Poor Jessica can only get people to read anything she writes by taking cheap shots at Gov. Palin. GJackson is right, and you, and dbarry, yet another bottomfeeder, are wrong. There is a medical diagnosis for this illness you have, it's called Palin Derangement Syndrome. Fortunately for you, it is completely treatable. First, you have to get out of whatever basement you are living in, get out of your jammies, and go outside for some fresh air. If that doesn't cure you, you may have to get Electro Convulsive Therapy. Give it a try, you'll feel better, poor thing.

$150 thousand spent on clothes, money donated vs. $150 million spent on coronation of BHO paid for by taxpayers. A tad hypocritical to criticize Palin, eh?

for every one negative article that goes out on most people 3 good articles answer, in the Alaska Govern case looks like this article here alone has generated over 30 postings . Awesome one person can have control on people of knowledge so intensly people have been taught to hate Sarah and to adore obama, I am a member of the higher forms of the food chain so I see thru the hoopla and all is reverse. I have utmost respect for Sarah ( a lot of respect is gained from articles like the one here digging on her for no reason} and have developed understanding in obamas total ineptness

I like the rumor of the clothes in a trash bag, what type of trash bag, paper with the top folded down? what store did the paper sack come from? oh its plastic, hard or soft? the reason is its not in a trash bag, they are on E bay , the trash bag is a lie from the most dispicable site in America -Huffing Post

Sarah Palin is a hurricane, a force of nature and the most refreshing political figure in a generation. Governor Palin is a genuine product of the traditional American family. She made it on her own. Sarah wasn't groomed by some corrupt political machine. Sarah didn't emerge by grasping to her husband's coattails. No way!! You woman haters and detestable trolls better be careful the next time you slither out from under your shrunken rocks and dead logs. SMITH is here!! And for you, dbarry2, In March, 1991, George HW Bush was riding high in the polls at 91%. People like you wailed at the prospect of Democrats never regaining the presidency again. But as history teaches us, things change, and they change quickly.

Palin is finished. She's unelectable clearly at the national level, and most likely at the state level too. She is such an embarrassment that most Americans gear up for the "cringe" every time that imbecile opens her mouth. In 2012, it will be either Huckabee, Jindal, Romney or some white knight from the ranks of the unknown who can articulate the substantive domestic and foreign issues. Palin is clueless about everything important. Her appeal is to the lunatic right whose out-of-date agenda of anti-choice, anti-gay causes is a turn off to the majority of Americans. We elite liberals are proud of being elite. Joe the Plumber was a laughing stock. America faces serious issues caused by a failed, faith based Republican leadership. Palin--the anti Hillary, Eliza Knowlittle idiot--personifies those damaging values. Thank goodness the majority of Americans put her in her place. Going forward, the only white house she'll ever see is the igloo in her backyard.

dBarry......You continue to show your complete and total ignorance..........A true liberal hallmark!.......Like most liberals, you have the IQ of canned cling peaches!...........Never met a liberal that had a brain that actually functioned..........Now, most of the posts here are from true Americans that KNOW something about Governor Palin.........HELL, I posted a good bit of her Resume in my very first post!...................Governor Palin has MORE experience on every front than Bill Clinton did when he first took office in 1993.......She has more Governing experience......she has a LOT more foreign trade, and foreign policy experience..........As Dick Morris about having to school Clinton on foreign policy.................She also ALREADY has tremendous Commander-In-Chief experience, and is briefed often by Homeland Security, as well as other intelligence services.......She has a VERY HIGH national security clearance. Much higher that Biden ever had. Obama has NEVER had security clearance, until now. In fact, his ties to terrorist Bill Ayers, and his murdering felon wife, who was one on the FBI's 10 most wanted, would preclude him from getting ANY security clearance, had he not been elected POTUS............ So don't give me that lame "she's over with" bullshit.................Also, stop with the LIES.........Governor Palin is NOT ANT-GAY in fact, she VETOED a bill that would have denied state benefits to same sex couples.........Here's a clue for you moron.........Over 80 percent of America is against gay marriage.....More than 60 percent think gays are sick perverts..........Governor Palin, who HAS gay friends herself, just like I do, has no issues with gays at all.....Except for gay marriage, and it is the EXACT same position, as Obama!............You liberals ARE NOT ELITE!......you are little bottom feed mouth breather who only exist on hate and lies.............When a liberal speaks, the truth is always busy elsewhere!!!!.....................Governor Palin has a 90 percent approval rating among Republicans. No one else has half of that.......She has a 70 percent approval of all Alaskans...........She will win re-election quite handily in 2010........Every election she has ever won, she's won that election in a landslide!!...2010 will be no different! Neither will be 2012! The nomination is hers, if she wants it, and with the way Obama is going, she will win a Reaganesque, 49 state blowout against him in 2012................But keep showing you total ignorance......it's fun to read liberalbabble.....After all, God gave humans liberals for some comic relief!

Hello, why was my comment removed TWICE now? Surely we are ALL entitled to leave comments here, even when they are supportive of Governor Palin??? To repeat, for the THIRD time..... Is this the best you can do, Jessica, to say that Palin is on a "rampage" against the natural world and about to come after readers' dogs? Any honest individual knows this issue is more complicated. If you are really so concerned about whales, then surely you are familiar with the conclusions of Alaskan state scientists -- that the beluga whale population was decimated over the past few decades by native subsistence farmers, who hunted at unsustainable levels? That is why it is not appropriate to label them as an endangered species, according to scientists. And in fact, the whale population has stabilized under Governor Palin's tenure. But it would be rather uncomfortable for you to point fingers at native hunters, wouldn't it? It's much easier to tar Governor Palin. But that doesn't make it true. I am willing to bet that Governor Palin is 100 times the conservationist that you are!

I'm on the side of Kathleen Parker, Powell and Buckley, whom the lunatic fringe now disown and call RINOs because they dare to criticize Palin. Can't take it, can you? Why even Michael Savage said on the day McCain picked her, "McCain just threw the election." There's always someone to blame when your candidate loses...McCain, Powell, Couric, Gibson,the liberal press, Homer Simpson. Do ya think maybe that setting up Joe The Plumber as role model might have had something to do with it? One more thing--check out the report today on MSNBC that shows only 36 percent of Americans have a favorable rating of Palin. Oh--I forgot--because it was MSNBC that reported it--not Fixed Noise--the survey was biased...ROFL. She's done my friend....she's Quayle light.

Hey, T.L.R., don't feel bad. My posts are getting deleted too. Jessica must be scared of our truths. That's why she deletes our comments.

Oh, Jessica. Why do you feel the need to attack a pro-life mother of 5 beautiful children? Are you intimidated by Sarah? I honestly can't see any other possible explanation for why you and the liberal media consistently bash Sarah Palin for no reason. Oh, and one more thing. You care about the whales and polar bears, but what do you think about HUMAN BEINGS? Most liberals are environmentalists and believe in animal rights, but won't even stop and think about the unborn children dying senselessly because of abortion. Anyway, do us all a favor and keep your jealousy and intimidation of Sarah to yourself.

First of all thanks so much for giving us a chance to defend the Great Gov of Alaska Sarah Palin. In answer to your reply dbarry2 Sarah is coming back into the battle and she is coming with an army of voters. BO did not have a mandate not with 58,164,524 people voting for Sarah, yes Sarah! Thanks gjackson3 for all your facts. At least the American People can have the opportunity to be informed now with the true facts . Sarah Palin is the American Dream! BO will turn out to be the American Nightmare! When most of his voters realize what change he is bringing to America they will say that it is not the change they voted for. You ask why does Sarah hate baby Bulga, and I ask why does BO hates Babies??? As an African American minister said President Obama has a choice he can go down in History as a Great President or his Legacy can be that he allowed the murder of more African American Babies then any President in History. It is his choice! Funny you should say that Americans cringe at hearing the voice of Sarah because that is exactly how I fee when I hear or see Obama, so we have something in common. As for you being an elite liberal you sound more like a two year old throwing a temper tantrum and I am passed that stage in my life. Joe the Plumber is America. Face up to it the only reason OB is in the Presidency is because the Left Wing Media was not reporting on the issues it should of been reporting on. They were not doing their job and now they are paying the price because they are going out of business!!!!!! BOYCOTT BOYCOTT speaks louder than any words!!!! You will see them turn on BO now because he is not of benefit to them any more. An another thing at least the igloo in Sarah's back yard belongs to her but guess what the White House belongs to We The People not the Elite only crowd.

dbarry.......No one knows who Kathleen Parker is!.....Seriously, she was an obscure liberal republican before she jumped on the hate bandwagon..........Colon Powell was always a liberal, and certainly didn't care a thing about the party that gave him all of his real opportunities.............Buckley's a moron, and his dad is rolling over in his grave!.........Savage?........Really?.......You know what Parker, Buckley and Savage all have in common?............They are all third tier hacks..........Few pay attention.............Everyone else is on our side.............As far as moderates, country clubbers, RINOs, what ever you call them.....THEY ARE LOSERS!...........We just had the quintessential RINO, moderate campaign........The one you moderates all screamed for.......We got smoked!.......Moderates always get their asses handed to them in national elections............These wishy washy, touchy feely morons are just democrat lite, and nothing more...........Anytime voters have a choice between a half ass democrat that calls itself a republican, like John McCain........voters will always .........chose an actual democrat..............On the other hand the "lunatic fringe" as you call us, ACTUAL SURE 'NUFF CONSERVATIVES win every election they enter!.............Again, Reagan won 49 state landslides by being a REAL conservative............Sarah Palin is also a real conservative 100%!......She also wins landslides............If she had been the POTUS candidate, NOT McCain, she'd be the one sitting in the Oval Office tonight, instead of the empty suit no nothing, know nothing...........And quoting MSNBC about any Republican is like looking at a Food Network poll about nuclear medicine!.....It's meaningless.......For one thing, almost no one watches MSNBC, and number two......they are so in the tank for The Poseur -In-Chief that they always trash any Republican................Every REAL poll out ther, ya know, like Rasmussen, or Pew, Or Gallop, actual real polls by actual real pollsters show that Palin has between and 85-95 percent approval rating among Republicans and Republican leaning independents...........At the same time, for comparison, Obama had an 80 percent approval rating BEFORE he was sworn in..........After his disastrous first week, it's at 60 percent, and falling!............The latest Sarah Palin for 2012 poll out there, where it asks who will be the 2012 nominee, it has Sarah at 97 percent, with Mitt Romney and Bobby Jindal tied for second at 1 percent each! Huckabee, Jeb Bush and Condi Rice have less than one point combined!...........So yeah, that's really washed up!...............As far as Dan Quayle, he's done quite well for himself. He's chairman of Cerberus Capitol.........A very well heeled investment firm that buys up companies and runs them.........But ya know, I read your lame little hate filled rantings, and like Jessica, you have no facts and nothing to add but lame attacks..........You and Jessica are pwned!!!.......It's really humorous that you continually delete thoughtful and correct rebuttals to your liberal hatred. Libs can't handle the truth..........Keep losing sleep over Sarahcuda though!.....There are 59 million (and growing) Americans that can't wait for 2012 when Palin runs her own campaign and takes the boy king down.........America will truly be reborn then!........ta-ta!

gjackson. You know you can't sway us liberals nor can I influence you. It's clear we are two countries under one flag with different standards and agendas. I admit that millions and millions of Americans admire Palin. l sleep very well knowing that none of my friends admire her. And may the best candidate win.

Liberals are easily swayed by false idols, like Obama, but rarely understand the real thing. .............As Winston Churchill once said:...."A man who at is 20 and isn't a liberal has no heart. And a man who is at 30 and not a conservative has no brain".........That pretty well sums it up.......By the way, wasn't trying to sway you....just be a counter to all of the lies and hate.........And yes, may the best candidate win, no matter who she may be!......I'm glad we finally agree on something!

You guys are hilarious. Why would I waste my time deleting your comments? As long as you don't get personal with each other or cross the line with name-calling, I have no reason but to sit back and watch you go at it. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go eat some nachos and write in my Sarah Palin-covered diary about how much I want to be like the great governator of AL when I grow up. And maybe work on my igloo plans. Hmm, I wonder if you can eat nachos in an igloo...

And gjackson, you're mistaken in attributing that quote to Churchill: http://www.winstonchurchill.org/i4a/pages/index.cfm?pageid=112 . There was a similar quote made by George Bernard Shaw, who was a socialist, and though I'm paraphrasing it goes something like: "If one is under 25 and is not a socialist, he has no heart; if one is over 25 and still a socialist he had no head." Cheers!

Jessica, the quote is attributed Churchill. Like many things, there is a bit of dispute, but the sentiment is correct................................... Your George Bernard Shaw quote makes the same point. Liberalism IS socialism, which IS communism............................................. The point being, if after becoming an adult, if you still believe in liberalism, socialism, and communism......you are quite foolish!.............Liberalism, communism, socialism, what ever you want to call it, has never worked anywhere it has been tried.........It's always a complete freakin' disaster........We are living the results of liberals run amok right now with the Jimmy Carter started.....Bill Clinton supercharged.......Barack Obama ACORN thug assisted.....Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Maxine Waters, Franklin Raines.....mortgage meltdown!.............BTW, Woodrow Wilson, Otto Von Bismarck, Georges Clemenceau [a French Premier and former socialist], and Aristide Briand (1862 - 1932) [French premier and former socialist].......All have similar quotes to Bernard Shaw.....................But our greatest President, Ronald Reagan said it best "A communist is someone who reads Marx. And anti-communist is someone who UNDERSTANDS Marx"
