Foreign Press Says What America’s Won’t: Sarah Palin is a Traitor

Sarah Palin has made it to the big time; she’s now being called out by international media. Yesterday, the Russian newspaper Pravda (this same paper has been quoted in numerous Right Wing publications when it criticized President Obama, and was considered a paper of merit at such time) eviscerated Sarah Palin for her unrelenting attacks upon the democratically elected President, at a time when America needs to stand together, united. When members of the International Press call Sarah Palin out for her lack of American patriotism, it’s time for the American Press to pay attention. It’s about time someone did.

“By attacking the democratically elected President of the United States of America at a sensitive time in her country’s history, she shows the tact of a boorish drunkard bawling obscenities at a funeral….

And now she turns not only against the fibre and backbone of her country, but against its democratically elected President, accusing him of being incompetent for not stopping Wikileaks. Where was she and where was her GOP before and during the 9/11 attacks? She accuses President Obama of not taking “steps” to assure the leaks were not published. What “steps”?……

If anything is a threat to the national security of the United States of America, it is this screaming, unrefined oaf with as much class as a searing release of flatulence followed by hysterical giggling at a state banquet. Is this what the people of the USA deserve?
To attack the President of the country at a time when the USA needs to close ranks and stand together to consolidate the enormous strides his (President Obama’s) intelligent and respectful approach has achieved in building bridges, when her party’s period in government bombed them, Spankin’ Sarah Palin comes across as a pitifully inadequate anachronism from the times of the Far West.”
<snip>
The American Press won’t say what the International Press will for a variety of reasons, but suffice it to say that there are many agendas at play here, causing truth to take a back-seat to dollars. As a noted US media critic once said, “everything to sell and nothing to tell.” And what a shame, because this isn’t about partisanship or even elitism; it’s about patriotism and who better to cover this issue than our domestic press?
“If Sarah Palin is not some kind of a massive political joke in the USA, wheeled out to liven up the political scene from time to time with nonsensical and pastiche (one hopes) displays of sheer and utter ignorance, then it is worrying.”
<snip>
Because Ms Palin is doing the dirty work for the Republican weaklings; sowing seeds of division, suspicion, hatred, and rage against a sitting President.

And those, my friends, are not the actions of a patriot. True Glasnost has arrived when the International Press says what the American Press will not. Sarah Palin is no patriot.

So a Russian paper calls Sarah a traitor for not loving Obama. I wonder if they condemned the dems for bashing Bush for 8 years as well. Of course back then dissent was patriotic, now it's racism or treason.

5. As I remember, Repukers wanted to cut your head off if you made
   
any disparaging remarks about GWB "during a time of war, it is beyond the pale", yet here we watch (with a THIRD war in the mix) acting like the ****ing loser hypocrites they have always been. The whole world over knows that the GOP is a pathetic joke, yet runs the country...into the ground.

Hear that GOP lurkers? You guys are the biggest losers on the planet.

Now everyone says so!

 
My God, you goons called for Bush to be executed.
For the record I never called you assholes traitors for not liking President Bush, I called you traitors for rooting for the enemy to win and wanting our soldiers to fail. Tell you what Rex, come over here and discuss that with us, you won't get banned faster than Wiener can hit send on twitter, like we will if we come there.

The Russians don't like Sarah spying on them from her house. 

Seriously, though, the Russians would rather have an ineffectual pushover that hates America as US president, than a proud patriot like Sarah.  Obama gave and gave to the Russians on the nuke treaty and got nothing in return.

lol, yeah funny that a bunch of commies don't like her.

Back in the day there were two major news organs in the USSR, 'Pravda' (The Truth) and 'Izvestiya' (The News), both full of propaganda and lies.  Jaded Soviet citizens used to make light of the total bullshit diet they were fed by saying "There is no news in The Truth, and no truth in The News."

the Russian newspaper Pravda (this same paper has been quoted in numerous Right Wing publications when it criticized President Obama, and was considered a paper of merit at such time)

Never, never, never, and NEVER has Pravda been considered a paper of merit.   We chuckled at the Russians making fun of a weak president.  

The Russians calling Palin a traitor is something she will wear as a badge of honor.

The writer's qualifications to make such statements?  British songwriter.   http://bookwormroom.wordpress.com/2006/08/24/and-you-wonder-why-russia-is-helping-fund-terrorists/

Uh-huh.

Misfits, go back to crying "Fox lies... Fox lies........ "

Well, we know that the Palestinians were laundering money for the won last time.  I guess he needs to launder more this time, so he'll call in the real masters of that particular art.

[GOBUCKS]

No one should be surprised that Pravda supports the jug-eared muslim. Even though the Russians have killed admirable numbers of muslims, they are still our enemies, and support anyone who weakens us.

Now I know damn well that this wasn't posted at DU.  Even they can't be so stupid as to post this without a sense of irony.

The primitves all over the net follow Sarah Palin more than we do.  Truthfully, how many of those here are really paying attention to her bus tour and what's going on?  I'm not.  I hope she is drawing crowds and is having a good time, but that's it.  The only time I ever hear about her tour is when the primitives mention it (watching their heads explode is the best part), otherwise it's not even on my radar.

I'm not following her bus tour, but I think it's funny as hell the lameass media is following her around like a pack of rabid dogs.  She is playing them for the fools they are, and they don't/can't realize it.  The only thing they can call Sarah on is the driving habits of the bus driver.

GO, Sarah, GO!

[delilahmused]

Okay, but how is she a traitor? Did she give away nuke secrets? Cancel a weapons shield? Make us beholden to China? Dis our closest allies? Make friends with our enemies with no apparent payoff for us? Hang out with people who think they didn't do enough when they blew up the pentagon and killed a cop at another time?

Treason is a very specific crime...I'm not sure how a bus tour and comments on facebook add up to this level of crime.

She attacked President Bush after 9/11?

[dandi]

No one I know of ever said it was unpatriotic to criticize a president in time of war. I criticized Bush for his inaction on immigration and his lack of commitment to reduce spending. What was unpatriotic were the lies from the Left concerning the justifications for war and their bullshit conspiracy theories and their verbal attacks on American troops while lauding the actions of the enemy. Especially those Leftists who traveled to foreign lands and spread their hatred for America.

That we said one couldn't criticize the president at all is just one more of their damnable lies that they won't let go of.

Same here.

To me, she's just another potential Republican presidential nominee, and I'm waiting to see how it pans out.

If she is, I'd of course enthusiastically vote for her, but it's way too early to get excited about 2012.

Even funnier, Bush was and is called a "war criminal" for starting an "illegal war," yet our current president actually did go to war without Congressional approval and is somehow given a pass by these hypocrites.  No wonder Pravda doesn't like to see him criticized...you never know when it might dawn on people that there really is a criminal at the head of the country, kissing Russian and Muslim hind-quarters.  You can't get much more traitorous than deliberately destroying your country's economy, standing with foreign leaders against your own states and citizens, and passing laws that will continue to mangle our economy and freedoms even after you've been voted out of office.
