Palin and Paul Revere

Remove all ads!

That can be a whole topic in itself. The cons can't hear the criticism of Obama from his own supporters, because of the noise of their own spin machine. If they stopped to listen they might actually learn something useful.

As far as Palin fans are concerned, Wiki had to lock the Paul Revere page because of their tampering, which has been pointed out already by DR. The real interesting thing about them is that they are just fans, much like those of Glenn Beck [and probably much the same crowd], since Palin quit her office to become a reality TV star and a Fox pundit. If she decides to run for office, that's very different thing. I think all the sharks are suddenly smelling blood in the political waters because of Obama's bungling of the economy. Of course, they won't consider that he's had help from the bad policies of the Republican House in helping tank the economy. Even Donald is talking of jumping back in, now that the opportunity may be there, so Sarah may not be far behind.

 

Can you actually imagine that hairdo running our country? Scary... though I would watch SNL every week again, the skits would be hilarious...

 

Ok lets get this out of the way, I think both palin & obama are idiots. I didnt always feel this way, in fact I'm one of those who fell for the slick packaging of barack back in '08 & voted for him(yeah, yeah i know, WTF was I thinking?!?). I personally rank that in the top 10 stupidest things I have done in my entire life.

Supporters can call him talented, smart, whatever, the man is clueless. I'm sorry deathrabbit but it demonstrably isn't false when you can watch his speeches given with a teleprompter & then watch any that he did without one. You can almost physically see his IQ dropping. He is a great campaigner but thats it, when it comes to actually following through with the plans, no.

So stating that something is basically complete when less than 10% is actually completed is just a social gaffe & not a misstatement? Your own definitions puts the lie to that one.

As far as a choice between voting for obama or palin, I see it as the choice between stabbing myself in the eye with a knife & shooting myself in the testicles with a gun. Both would suck & I'm not really sure which would be more painful.
If I was choosing candidates for the republicans I would choose a herman cain/ron paul ticket. I feel like they could cover each others weaknesses & add their strengths together.

 

That is your opinion, and you're entitled to it. As a position it is neither compelling, widely held or supported by the facts. I've seen plenty of his speeches, debates, and off-the-cuff interviews, all done without teleprompters. He does just fine without one.

If you want to criticize Obama's positions and policies, I welcome you to do that – but don't sit here and act like he's some bumbling doofus when it is obvious to any intellectually honest person that he is not. Not a thing you just said is based in reality.

 

Amen! Your entire post was right on point, but I'll just quote a snip for brevity.

No doubt, but in the most disturbing way imaginable.

 

...And voting for Palin would not have been? I was actually considering voting for Mac until he put Palin on the ticket. That did for me. I still don't regret my vote for Obama. He's certainly an improvement over Bush, but not quite what I was hoping for.

 

Don't beat yourself up my friend, as your other choice at the time was Palin as a VP. It was a lose-lose choice the public was given. I voted for Mac(My 1st time voting republican and I live in IL), but would of voted for Hilary against Mac. I also would of voted for Obama if he chose Hilary as his sidekick instead of Crazy Joe.

 

No chandos the red, voting for palin would also have been just as bad.
Deathrabbit That is your opinion, and you're entitled to it. As a position it is neither compelling, widely held or supported by the facts.

 

Wow. Good one.

 

Thats why i used it.
I'm sorry, I just can't take politics too seriously. If we all did, there would be a mass explosions of heads round the world.

 

Be careful, though. Politics is too expensive to be treated only as entertainment.

By the way, what is all that noise about Sarah Palin's emails? Does anyone really care?

 

Yeah, the right wing blogs keep on waiting for the media to go over Obama's emails with the same level of scrutiny.

The strange thing is this may actually be working out for Palin as the emails seem to be showing that she is a lot more competant then anyone thought she was.

 

I didn't watch, but apparently Michelle Bachmann did really well in the Republican debate last night. (To be honest, I forgot it was even on.) It is not inconceivable that Bachmann would be a decent substitute for Palin in the eyes of those in the Tea Party.

 

If the perspective is from the far right, she did well. The quality of the entire debate was horrible. They were all trying not to step on each others toes, while spewing their Obama tirades. Bachmann did well as the cheeleader for "One term Obama," typical Republican rant: "We are clueless on what to do about anything, but anyone is better than Obama."

Snook - In some of the emails Palin praises Obama on energy policy. It proves what an absolute political phony she is. Surprised? You shouldn't be.

 

Even a blind squirrel will eventually find a nut. (of course I'm directing this at Obama, whereas I'll assume you will think of Palin )

 

Palin on Obama regarding energy:

And on Mac's support of addressing climate change:

 

I'm confused -- how did her e-mails become public knowledge?

 

Pretty much sums it up for me:
