The Conservative Cave

In a blistering CPAC speech on Saturday in which she sipped a Big Gulp soda to mock Mayor Michael Bloomberg's soda cup ban--and the liberal nanny state, in general--former Alaska Gov. and vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin reserved her harshest words for President Barack Obama regarding gun control, the budget, and leadership.
Palin said Obama promised the most transparent administration ever but has been mired in crony capitalism and has not even passed a budget. She said refusing to pass a budget is not "just bureaucratic bungling," it is "refusing to declare what" Obama intends to do with the people's money.
"Barack Obama, you lie!" Palin said of Obama's transparency claims.
On background checks for guns, Palin said, "Dandy idea, Mr. President. Should have started with yours."
She said "bad guys who ignore the laws" will not follow new laws when it comes to gun control legislation Democrats want enacted. She blistered liberals for over-simplifying the causes of gun-related crimes.
"Saying a chunk of metal did the crime is like saying the fork made me fat," Palin said.
She mocked the mainstream media for gathering again to write their "conservatives in crisis" stories.
Palin had some harsh words Obama's lack of leadership and the lack of leaders in Washington.
She said there is a "direct correlation between the Senate's stubbornly refusing to pass a budget and selfishly agreeing to spend our children's and our grandchildren's money."
"No budget is no leadership," Palin said. "It's time for America to be more outraged about this."
She said America faces challenges "so big" while its leaders are so small.
Palin called Obama a campaigner who makes promises he can't keep and seeks to divide and conquer while orchestrating crisis after crisis to exploit for political gain.
"We don't have leadership coming out of Washington, we have reality television," Palin said.
Palin said everything coming out of Washington, D.C. feels put-on and every event feels calculated to fool Americans.
She blistered the permanent political class for focusing too much on the process of politics instead of the purpose of politics, which is to lead and serve. She resoundingly mocked Obama as a permanent campaigner even though he is not up for reelection anymore.
"Now step away from the Teleprompter, and do your job," Palin said to Obama.

Sarah doesn't pull a punch and it's spot-on accurate.
It's too bad the masses aren't listening. Low information voters are still scrabbling for their free stuff.

I like Saraf Palin, and I hope she chooses to get back in the political ring. The radicals will still try to destroy her with lies, misrepresentations andinnuendo, but I think she has the ba**sto take it and give it right back.
It's a sad state for a perty though, when the only person in it with ba**s doesn't.

And as an added bonus...she's pissed off Karl Rove. :-)

The Big Gulp was awesome.

Piss on him.

Sounds to me like Karl needs to spend a few minutes looking at the recent GOP report:

It's an indictment of Karl's own philosophy and thinking, which is a very big reason that Barry's back in the White House.
Karl - you've served your purpose. Now that we're reaping what you've sown, it doesn't look to me like you've got a helluva lot of room for bitching.

The bottom up approach rather than a top down solution to the average American problems is what is sorely needed. She hits a home run on point while Mitt struck out. That is true for most Repubs in DC and the elitist in the Repub party along with know it alls like Rove, Wills, etc. The country does not need more Ivy League Grads, we need someone like Palin who came up from humble beginning that understands the middle class. It is a shame that there are very few Repubs in DC that understand this concept.

She is dead on with this line.

If immigration for illegals passes, we can count on never winning another election. The left will have a hefty and undefeatable number forever more.

I really like her. She needs to tone down the hair and platforms though :-)

"You lie!", Joe Wilson....and you have never seen him on TV or in the media again. He is dead to the media. But Palin is a thorn in the media's side. :lmao:

She must be doing something right cause the media and liberals hate her. There were 41 pages of comments regarding her CPAC speech on a NBC web site. Most of them vile and disgusting personal attacks rather than on the substance of her remarks. .

I rather see Sarah Palin tak over Karl Rove's position. We could use her type.

She sure got his bowels in a uproar when she stated the Repub party needs new ideas rather than the old and failed policies that Rove espouses to. He was fuming about that in an interview and snarked back that maybe she should finish her term in AK. He has convenient memory lapses cause that is exactly what Obama, Napohead, and Sibelius did. If McCain had won the election, he would have quit, not finished, deserted, ran away, etc. etc, his obligation to the NV voters who elected to a 6 year term. Seems like a lot hypocrisy on both sides cause if it is OK for one it is OK for the other. Even Repubs and some conservatives can not get that thru their thick heads.
