[Our troops] deserve our support and our government’s unwavering commitment to equipping them for victory...
"In other news, a team of scientists at MIT have discovered that water is wet."
...Ronald Reagan knew it took a united team to right the wrongs of Washington. He told his team in essence, “Gentlemen and Ladies, I hate inflation; I hate taxes; I hate terrorists. Do something about it.†...
I guess "Do something about it" = "Buy my book!"

I read the whole thing. She makes a case for regular people to take back the government from the politicians. Of course , the whole purpose of a book tour is to sell books, but you're overlooking the finer point of her reaching out to people.

I just don't get the whole Palindrone thing.

I don't get the whole Palinhate dickfaces either.

It's not hate. It's just being sick of the hypocrisy. We condemned the other side for putting Obama on a pedestal. Now we are doing the same with Palin. And we don't even know if she's going to run for office again!

You can't seem to let it go and move on, though. Sound like a love-hate thing to me. :lmao:

Defending her views from people like you and the liberal-infested media is not the same thing as putting her on a pedestal. She is promoting her book, so what? How does that make her a hypocrit?

Who the hell is "we"? I don't, for one SECOND, believe you're a conservative. You may be a liberal or a Republican, but you are no conservative. That woman is more conservative than McCain, Bush, and most other "Republicans" that ran in the past 3 elections. Maybe you're just a filthy f'n RINO. Then again, you could be a sexist POS. The reason we railed on Obama is because he had NO, ZERO, ZILCH executive experience and his legislative record was questionable to say the least; derelict if you ask me.
Get over yourself, douche. We won't allow you idiots to pick our candidate this time. I'm a conservative and will vote for the conservative next election.

0Bama was put on his pedestal preaching nothing more than hope and chains and a slogan of "yes we can". Meaning platitudes for the DUmAsses.

What's with this "we" shit golem? You got a mouse in your pocket or something?
I haven't put her on a pedestal. I simply like and agree with a lot of her views.

Ooops. I had forgotten golem's tendancy to push buttons from my time with him on other boards.
I learned to take a lot of his posts with a grain of salt.
Carry on....

Reagan honed his political beliefs and speaking ability on speaking tours for G.E.
Your point?
-
Yeah cuz we all know all she is doing is going around saying hope and change reading from a teleprompter. :whatever:
Palin is the first person in awhile to energize the conservatives and there is a reason. She talks a good talk and we would love to give her a chance to see if she walks the walk. Not to mention the meltdown at the DUmp when she is sworn in. :-)
-

She rattles off a bunch of soundbites.

Don't be obtuse. She's not the hypocrite. The people who elevate he to Godhood are.

I'm so glad that "conservatives" sound so much like the liberals they despise. NOT.

If running for president is "walking the walk," forget it. It's not going to happen. She'll write Facebook posts and appear on talk shows. NTTAWWT.

You're projecting. Immensely.

Nothing untrue in what I said. If there were, it's about time you start qualifying your point lest you look like a complete and total ****ing moron.
Moron.

No one is elevating her to godhood. The Obamabots have a lock on that. I'd have to say that you have started more Palin threads percentage wise than any member of this board. How many threads have you started and and how many have been about Palin?
It must be that love/hate relationship you have with her.
-

I only wish they did. Sarahbots are no better than Obamatrons.

Palin is OK. She's just human. It's really the people who think she's more than human that I have the big problems with.

Sounds like you have an axe to grind with Palin. You can dislike her for whatever reason as it is your right to do so.. but assuming we have a god-like admiration for her just because we may agree with her political views is simply stupid and unwarranted. No one here is expecting Palin to part the seas or walk on water, but her views [on gun control, energy in-dependency, pro-life stance, anti-tax, anti big governement etc.] are alligned with myself and many members on this board.
What exactly is your purpose here..to malign Palin??? well, I'll let you in on a little secret. It's not working. :-)
-
I admit that I got on the Palin bandwagon, at first, because she pissed off all the right people.
I admit that I don't know if she is qualified to be the next POTUS. (I supported her for VP with 4 years to learn)
I admit she may not be the best candidate in 2012. Time will tell.
...
I know she represents what America was founded on.
- The idea that our leaders should come from the common citizens
- The idea that small government is the best government
- The idea that capitalism is a moral ideal
I know that Obama has yet to provide any proof that he is smarter than the average bear.
- What were his grades in college?
- What has he done to improve the economy?
- What has he done in foreign relations?
I know Palin walks the walk
- She has a track record of taking on her own party.
- She has more common sense than anyone in Congress
- She has no record of backtracking on her promises like Obama has
I know she would be a better POTUS than anyone since Ronaldus Maximous. Hands down. Not perfect. Not "great". Just better.
I know she has a deep and endearing love of what this country was meant to be. I don't know that about Obama.

And who exactly would that be? Are you trying to say we need to be more like McLame and his ilk and less like Reagan? You're making the same argument against Palin that the Libs do against the 40th President.
-
When in doubt, invoke Reagan.
When you're a Lib on a Conservative board...bash the bastion of Conservatism.
:whatever:

Seriously, I have no idea what you're talking about. I read a variety of political sites, have friends and family of differing political views and I have not once seen any hint of Palinmania or the godhood-making to which you refer. I've heard a lot of conservatives and some Republicans say they are thankful for her speaking out on their behalf, but that's hardly worship.
What I do see and hear on a daily basis is the infallibility of the Lord O, although the bloom is starting to fade from that rose for some. I also see and hear the same level of hatred directed at Palin from 'progressives' that was directed at GWB for years.
If there was hypocrisy I'd be the first to point it out, but it's a figment of your imagination.
eta: I don't know how everything ended up in the blue quotation box!!!

And Obama doesn't/didn't? Face it, Golem--without his teleprompter, he can't even do that!

-
Golem...
you entertain me.
-
When did popularity become a rote disqualifier from public discourse?
Near as I can tell Palin isn't peddling snake oil like Owl Gore and she is chasing the looney vote like Ron Paul.
I think her resignation was a gift to any opposition she may encounter were she ever to run for office again but I think she's more interested in being a king-maker rather than serving as queen.
-
I'm beginning to think Golem may be one of that rare and special breed, i.e. someone who wholeheartedly supported McCain as the best possible pick for President.

Bingo.
He loves to hate her and what she represents - the sort of spirit that says:
"We don't need no stinkin' politicians stealing our money, our honor, and our way of life. We don't need socialism in this country because we've seen how wasteful, corrupt, and bureaucratic it is. We don't need politicians who are concerned with themselves and their political careers above all else. We don't need to be told what's best for us and we don't need government handouts. We're capable, reasonably intelligent, and are able to discern for ourselves what is best for us. Furthermore, we despise those who cannot think for themselves, who demand government handouts, special treatment, and who demand we accept their aberrant and filthy lifestyles. We cherish life and protect it best we can, we help those who can and do help themselves, and we appreciate and respect our neighbor's property.
Sarah Palin says, "I don't need no stinkin' political office to be an effective conservative and I will speak the thoughts that I previously have NOT been able to articulate because of that political office.
"I believe in the power of the American people to self-determination and the role of government to be subservient to that self-determination. I believe that the government has grown far beyond the intents and purposes as laid out by the FF and as as result, it is bloated, inept, and unable to serve the people in the manner that the Constitution demands.
"I believe it is past time for lame and feeble attempts to "meet others in the middle" and to demand from our government what the majority of the citizens of this country have already articulated: No TARP, no bailouts,
no government dictating in GM, the financial markets/industry, or healthcare.
Sarah Palin says, "I want the government to stay the hell out of my life and give me back my freedom to do as I wish, within the confines of the Constitution, the supreme law of the land."

It's either that or he's a card carrying member of the John Birch Society.

Me too.

If he would type random words in all caps, I'd think he was the reincarnation of John C Calhoun!
ahh the memories.
-
I believe Sarah's more qualified for the Presidency than Obama based on executive experience alone.
That's not putting her on a pedestal, that's just common sense. :tongue:

:whatever: Couldn't you have come up with a better retort between here and FR? Honestly.
-
FR
They're definitely Sarahbot Central (also Birther Central). No other place comes close.
-
Come now Golem, whom here have you seen putting Palin on a pedestal or promoting her to godhood?
Name names, provide post numbers.
It is clear that you don't care for her, and that is fine. I myself was disappointed when she resigned as govenor, but I understand her reasoning.
I support the same conservative values that she espouses, as I did with Reagan. That hardly makes me a Palinite.
Who do you like in the conservative political field these days as a possible presidential candidate in 2012?
Or is all that you are interested in is being inflammatory?
-
Come now Golem, whom here have you seen putting Palin on a pedestal or promoting her to godhood?
Nobody. It's a figure of speech. Just like with Obama. And just like with Obama, there are people who think she's our political savior.
It is clear that you don't care for her, and that is fine.
I don't have a problem with her. I have a problem with people who put a lot of stock in her. I don't see her as a queen or even a kingmaker.
I support the same conservative values that she espouses, as I did with Reagan. That hardly makes me a Palinite.
A lot of people espouse the same conservative values that she espouses. There's a whole lot of espousin' goin' on.

Nobody. It's too early.

I'm a conservative. I don't put a lot of stock in politicians. Period.

I can agree with that.

I can agree with that.
That said, I'm thoroughly enjoying watching Gov. Palin just twist liberals' bowels in knots by doing nothing but going to book signings. Anything that they hate so rabidly HAS to be good for the country. Whether she runs or not, I'm really enjoying their 'splodin heads.
-

Oh bullsh*t. You're one of those people like the late and not lamented Beyond The Sea who was pissed off that 99.9% of the people on FR didn't see the world exactly the way that he/she/it did and spent your days ridiculing the rest of us for not being as enlightened as you.
Here's a clue...if the majority of the people don't agree with you...maybe...just maybe it's NOT them that's wrong.

Sarah Palin isn't in office, you ****in' moron, Obama is. For you to come here and trash HER is VERY telling, again, you ****in' moron. You say you're a conservative? BULL SHIT! You call yourself a conservative yet you're more concerned with Palin than you are this Damn idiot in office right now.
**** off, troll.
