The Note: Palin Mania Shakes up Race

I am so excited about Palin!
Thank you McCain!
Dem for Palin/McCain

The more the left-wing attacks Palin, the more determined I am to vote for her. What hypocrits – champion women’s rights, and then put your liberal bloggers out there to suggest she can’t handle the job of VP and raise four children. Lies, lies, lies, and I know the Obama campaign is behind this garbage.

McCain, Palin and the Republican Party are exploiting two unfortunate events in Palin’s family:
1. Palin’s 5 months old son with Dawn syndrom
2. Palin’s 17 years-old pregnant daugther
All of that for political gains. God save America from McPalin.

I am so excited about Palin!
Thank you McCain!

Here’s a tissue to wipe the drool off of your face.

The new Palin McCain ad is AWSOME!!!!
I am so excited, McCain and Palin are the real change that Washington needs!
Dem for McCain/Palin

The left-wing is attacking Sarah Palin so visciously because they realize that a certain percentage of female Democrats will cross over to vote for Palin simply because they want to see the glass ceiling shattered or because they are enraged at Obama for not taking Hillary as VP. My wife and two married daughters are doing exactly that, including contributing to the McCain campaign. This is the first election in my memory in which some women Democrats worked to actively defeat their own party. There’s anger out there among some womemn . .

What vicious attacks? She’s been on the National scene for a little over a week. Do you call delving into her record attacks. I don’t agree that the kids are brought into the political stuff on either side.

McSame spent 26 years in the senate, that does not mean change, it seems that the republicans are exploiting Palin’s son disability and her unfortunate daughter’ s pregancy for political gains. Palin is a strong dose of WBush-Cheney who has no experience, no direction and no understanding of national or international issues.

I was a Clinton supporter but now I am thrilled to vote for Palin and McCain.
I was clear from the beginning that Obama was all talk and no substance. It is great to have some real change makers to vote for in McCain and Palin.
Obama proved his lack of judgment when he voted against the surge and then again when he picked Biden over Clinton. Obama/Clinton would have been unbeatable but Obama’s arrogance got in the way.
I am so glad that McCain picked Palin.
I am so excited about election day!

geevill should get a bump on her head now that she admitted she’s an idiot.

Hey J,
Check out the new McCain/Palin ad. There is a huge list of the things they have done to change the government and Washington.
The ad is fantastic!
Sounds like the Obama supporters are becoming bitter now. Oh how the tables have turned!
Don’t ya think that ad is biased. What has John McCain done? Sarah Palin just became a national name. I don’t care what she did in Alaska. She doesn’t even know what a VP does for God’s sake.

Obama peaked to early. It is sad really!
Gallup shows the tides are changing!
Palin and McCain rock!
Democrat for McCain – Palin 2008

McSame tries to convince people he is not like Bush, with whom he voted 95% of the time. Yeah, right John. So why did he appoint an extreme right-winger evangelical who is more like Bush than Bush himself? McSame is a hypocrite, and Palin is a lightweight.

When it comes to ideology and the issues, Sarah Palin stands for everything the world doesn’t like about America.
Half of Americans couldn’t care less, for they don’t care about the world, they care about Palin’s provincial ideology and talking points.
As a result, a McCain-Palin victory in November will put an end to America’s international stature as a Super Power of western ideas and values.
It will put an end to the greatness of the United States.
We’ll be another province, another international Alaska.
BILLIONS of people, all over the world, will feel VERY sorry about that.
In the meantime, Americans are enjoying, while tearing up, the pics in US or PEOPLE of the Palin family… hunting… snowboarding… playing with the kids… and that little Trig…
Poor America! Once the Home of the brave… Once the great producer of fresh ideas and strong values, the pusher of the frontiers of liberty, the great fighter for justice and equality…
America 2008… a country that supports torture, that spies on its own citizens… a country that spits on its own brilliant Constitution….
I feel bad.

Clarice Feldman:
Sunday Biden says life begins at conception. Over the weekend Obama said he’ll not rescind the Bush tax cuts if the economy remained in trouble. Earlier on O’Reilly he said the surge did work.
Backtracking on the surge, taxes and abortion. Hmm. Next thing you know Obama and Biden will start campaigning in red open-toed shoes and frameless glasses.

Since I know of at least ONE of these BUSH-LINKS to be false, I have to assume the rest are suspect:
” Like Bush, supports the teaching of Creationism alongside Evolution in public schools;…”
FACT: Palin does not support Creationism to be taught in the school. In fact – her father was a Science teacher.
When questioned about creationism in the school, she clarified an min-interpreted remark that while she believed if the topic of creationism came up as discussion in school – the discussion should not be forbidden.
That is called FREEDOM OF SPEECH. People who are secure in their beliefs do not fear the open exchange of ideas.

Obama is now reaping all the crap that he has sown. He had a chance to follow through on an originality theme but gave that up to accommodate big corporate bucks and DC business as usual.

Unfortunately for Obama, he had already made the Wright decision.

Some of you people are voting against your own interests by voting McCain. Obviously the future of this country is at stake and McCain/Palin are not the ones to fix it.

Can the super-rich former governor of Massachusetts — the son of a Fortune 500 C.E.O. who made a vast fortune in the leveraged-buyout business — really keep a straight face while denouncing “Eastern elites”
Can the former mayor of New York City, a man who, as USA Today put it, “marched in gay pride parades, dressed up in drag and lived temporarily with a gay couple and their Shih Tzu” — that was between his second and third marriages — really get away with saying that Barack Obama doesn’t think small towns are sufficiently “cosmopolitan”?
Can the vice-presidential candidate of a party that has controlled the White House, Congress or both for 26 of the past 28 years, a party that, Borg-like, assimilated much of the D.C. lobbying industry into itself — until Congress changed hands, high-paying lobbying jobs were reserved for loyal Republicans — really portray herself as running against the “Washington elite”?
Yes, they can.
On Tuesday, He Who Must Not Be Named — Mitt Romney mentioned him just once, Rudy Giuliani and Sarah Palin not at all — gave a video address to the Republican National Convention. John McCain, promised President Bush, would stand up to the “angry left.” That’s no doubt true. But don’t be fooled either by Mr. McCain’s long-ago reputation as a maverick or by Ms. Palin’s appealing persona: the Republican Party, now more than ever, is firmly in the hands of the angry right, which has always been much bigger, much more influential and much angrier than its counterpart on the other side.
What’s the source of all that anger?
Some of it, of course, is driven by cultural and religious conflict: fundamentalist Christians are sincerely dismayed by Roe v. Wade and evolution in the curriculum. What struck me as I watched the convention speeches, however, is how much of the anger on the right is based not on the claim that Democrats have done bad things, but on the perception — generally based on no evidence whatsoever — that Democrats look down their noses at regular people.
Thus Mr. Giuliani asserted that Wasilla, Alaska, isn’t “flashy enough” for Mr. Obama, who never said any such thing. And Ms. Palin asserted that Democrats “look down” on small-town mayors — again, without any evidence.
What the G.O.P. is selling, in other words, is the pure politics of resentment; you’re supposed to vote Republican to stick it to an elite that thinks it’s better than you. Or to put it another way, the G.O.P. is still the party of Nixon.
One of the key insights in “Nixonland,” the new book by the historian Rick Perlstein, is that Nixon’s political strategy throughout his career was inspired by his college experience, in which he got himself elected student body president by exploiting his classmates’ resentment against the Franklins, the school’s elite social club. There’s a direct line from that student election to Spiro Agnew’s attacks on the “nattering nabobs of negativism” as “an effete corps of impudent snobs,” and from there to the peculiar cult of personality that not long ago surrounded George W. Bush — a cult that celebrated his anti-intellectualism and made much of the supposed fact that the “misunderestimated” C-average student had proved himself smarter than all the fancy-pants experts.
And when Mr. Bush turned out not to be that smart after all, and his presidency crashed and burned, the angry right — the raging rajas of resentment? — became, if anything, even angrier. Humiliation will do that.
Can Mr. McCain and Ms. Palin really ride Nixonian resentment into an upset election victory in what should be an overwhelmingly Democratic year? The answer is a definite maybe.
By selecting Barack Obama as their nominee, the Democrats may have given Republicans an opening: the very qualities that inspire many fervent Obama supporters — the candidate’s high-flown eloquence, his coolness factor — have also laid him open to a Nixonian backlash. Unlike many observers, I wasn’t surprised at the effectiveness of the McCain “celebrity” ad. It didn’t make much sense intellectually, but it skillfully exploited the resentment some voters feel toward Mr. Obama’s star quality.
That said, the experience of the years since 2000 — the memory of what happened to working Americans when faux-populist Republicans controlled the government — is still fairly fresh in voters’ minds. Furthermore, while Democrats’ supposed contempt for ordinary people is mainly a figment of Republican imagination, the G.O.P. really is the Gramm Old Party — it really does believe that the economy is just fine, and the fact that most Americans disagree just shows that we’re a nation of whiners.
But the Democrats can’t afford to be complacent. Resentment, no matter how contrived, is a powerful force, and it’s one that Republicans are very, very good at exploiting.

The differences between Hillary and Palin are so vast they could divide a nation, and they do.

I was a die hard Hillary supporter who said I would never vote for Obama. After listening to McCain, I found he was for everything that I am against.
Anyone who was for Hillary would not be able to vote for McCain/Palin because it is against everything she stands for and has fought so hard for.

Mrs. Palin has shown herself to be a strong opponent, and positive running mate. She brought integrity, into the arena, while defending her moral principles, and personal ethics. She has shown herself able to take the political, and sexist attacks the Obama supporting media has been dishing out by the truck load, while maintaining “class, and dignity.
I continue to be amazed at the endless rhetoric, and undue use of exaggeration in contemptuous and condescending remarks from the “Obama supporting public”, and the liberal News. “It is bad for politics, and it’s bad for your candidate”. You can be civil to make your point, “even if it’s a bad point”.
I say… “Trivialize her at your own peril.

Many of us who voted for Hillary are moderate/conservative blue-color/middle-class working women whom have climbed the ladder similar to Palin. And yes, an active christian, who not perfect, made sure that I and my children were in church most every Sunday.
As a woman who started as an enlisted Airman (E-1) in the Air Force to get a college degree, I was able to rise to the commissioned rank of Captain in the Air National. In my civilian job, I started as a GS-3 and have worked up to a GS-15 in federal law enforcement. Both careers were non-traditional for women.
I know what it takes to raise a family, get a master’s degree at night school, be in the National Guard and be deployed away from my children for extended periods of time, have a full-time job, raise two daughters and put them through college as a divorced single mother.
Yes, I admire Hillary and it took a village to help me raise my kids down this path. But the fact is, Hillary is not in the race. Palin is and I like Palin and am proud to be casting my vote to her. 18 million cracks is not enough. I want the ceiling busted. And, a win for Palin will be a sybmol of that for me.
It is unfortunate that Obama had to act like a jr. high bully and not appreciate the importance of putting Hillary on the democratic ticket. I won’t vote for Obama. His lack in judgement on that one issue lost my vote. And political or othewise, McCain was wise enough to take a chance and select Palin. Wow! Talk about breaking the ceiling in the Republican Party!
Although, I consider myself a moderate Democrat, my daughters are registered Republicans. One attends a Southern Baptist Church and one attends an Independent Baptist Church. They are working women and positive role models to both myself and others.

if!!!! democrats would have had a sure ticket if obama would have picked hillary…..hillary 2012

“10 Ways in Which Sarah Palin Is Exactly Like George W. Bush”…
WOW. So it’s great to be like Bush.

I wonder when all the skeletons in Palin’s closet come out, how long it will be before McCain throws her under the bus?

I think the “styrofoam columns” remark, said it all…Obama is much stage and oratorical fluff. I think some are beginning to see that Mr. Obama is really self-absorbed, and lacks experience…. I believe McCain has the experience, fortitude and love of country that is needed for a President. Palin is an impressive, quick study and fighter who will use both hemispheres of her brain to help the country.

“So Im wondering What My Girl Sarah has been up to., McCain needs to let the Media Get access to his VP candidate. Thats lame to hide your VP candidate away from the Media. ”
Yeah, about as lame as waiting 20 months into your campaign to go on FOX.
ANY defense that you want to throw out here for that Political strategy can be said for Palin not giving interviews.
And it’s not like th Liberal Media hasn’t been attacking her on junk issues. Why should she willingly take interviews that are obvious setups?
Well, she is showing her MoJo by being on ABC news this week. But MSNBC and CNN can kiss her buttocks, LOL.
So there goes your argument.

I like Palin more than the other 3. Maybe she is new and real.
Who knows – Palin for President in 4.

Darrell Foster, thank you for posting a legit reason for voting for McCain over Obama. It seems most here are voting for him out of revenge because Hillary isn’t running. Plus they want a woman. If they can’t have Hill then Sarah is the next best thing, regardless of their opposite issues….stupid people shouldn’t be allowed to vote.

“The more the left-wing attacks Palin, the more determined I am to vote for her.” Amen, the Democrats eat their owne when it suits them. They’ll claim women’s lib but will crucify strong women if expedient. That’s hypocrisy, not principle. VOTE NO TO BIOGTED OBAMA SUPPORTERS!!

OBAMAS BERLIN “SMOKE AND MIRRORS SPEECH”
By: Michael P. Tremoglie, The Bulletin
The American and European mainstream media reported Mr. Obama’s Berlin speech in hagiographic terms. They repeatedly referenced the thousands of people who attended Mr. Obama’s speech in Berlin.
Germany’s official international broadcaster, Deutsche Well, reported that, “Berlin welcomed Barack Obama like a superstar. … Then Obama gave a rhetorically impressive speech in the tradition of great U.S. presidents such as Ronald Reagan and John F. Kennedy …”
Yet, in all the reporting about Mr. Obama’s speech in Berlin, not once was it reported by the major media outlets in America or Europe that Obama’s appearance was preceded by two free concerts by Reggae artist Patrice and rock artist Reamonn. Both of whom are very popular performers in Germany.
With all the comparisons with Kennedy’s “Ich bin ein Berliner” speech and Reagan’s “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall” speech, I do not recall either of those speeches being preceded by free reggae and rock concerts. I do not think Kennedy or Reagan needed the cheap publicity stunt of a free concert by a popular singing star to be able to attract a crowd.
This is not the first time Mr. Obama has used a marquis name singer to draw a crowd and make it seem that the crowd was there for him. To sight another… During Mr. Obama’s May speech in Portland, he was preceded by a free concert given by The Decemberists. “Smoke and mirrors”.

“Some of you people are voting against your own interests by voting McCain. Obviously the future of this country is at stake and McCain/Palin are not the ones to fix it.” J, the funny thing about democracy is that we can tell you to stick your “judgement” of us where the sun don’t shine. VOTE NO TO BIGOTED OBAMA SUPPORTERS!!!!

To all Dems , Libs, Communists, Socialists, and your ilk:
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Two fasmous women now from Wasilla Alaska.
Sarah Palin ex mayor of Po Dunk Wasilla
Lisa Flowers Porn Queen

Jeff I do so hope the nexr job the republicans outsource to a foreign coutry will be yours, LOL. Vote yourself out of work I don’t care I’m retired and have mine.

“Saying this, I am HIGHLY offended that the slurs against Palin are so sexist. They are not just attacks on her, but her HUSBAND!” RoBoTech, amen! Raising children and providing them with the tools to be successful adults is very hard work!! You should be commended for bringing two wonderful people to the world practically all by yourself!!

If they can’t have Hill then Sarah is the next best thing, regardless of their opposite issues….stupid people shouldn’t be allowed to vote.
Posted by: zz | Sep 8, 2008 10:01:46 AM
As a Hillary supporter that is a stupid reason to vote for somebody. To me that is a slap in the face to Hillary. The Republican ticket is at the opposite end of the spectrum from what Hillary believes. I guess you people will put spite before country. How stupid can you be?

Oprah’s adopted son, little Bambi is going Down! Fat *zz Oprah will soon build him a house in Africa next to hers.
Hispanos will vote for honor, familia, patria (country)that’s John McCain.
I am voting for America, that’s my main interest. Vote McCain/Palin/Hillary Senate Leader.

Hey Jeff tey dialing into A T & T’s help line you will be talking to people on the other side of the world in India, no problem, no problem, we will fix we will fix. Hope that wasn’t a job you were hoping to get.

Is Sarah Palin “The One”? I’m glad the right-wing extremists have a new Messiah to replace George Bush. After all. he’s done such a great job since he receives his marching orders directly, into his gut, from JC himself. She’s just what America needs now an extremist right-wing partisan. Let’s keep fighting about things we don’t agree on rather than work together to fix what we can agree on. Thanks John McCain. Great choice. Sends a great message.

William nice try at pity, But yoiur big time Republican Tom Delay puts it this way. He tells young Republicans that America would not need 12 million illegal aliens to do our work if we hadn’t had 12 million abortions. In other words he feels aborted babies is a ready source of cheap labor what a nice guy Tom Delay is. What a Christian thinking of babies as cheap sources of labor. What a creep.

Can this “j” commenter kindly shut the hell up and allow people to vote on whatever beliefs they so choose? This STILL is a free country, is it not? McCain’s decision was brilliant and will go down in history as a stroke of genius. Not all Hilary supporters were lunatic left feminists and McCain knew this. He shored up the republican base as well as disenfranchised MODERATE Hilary supporters in one fell swoop.
I am a man and a moderate who liked Hilary the best out of all the candidates. I love Sarah and what she did to the ticket. For one thing she showed just how hypocritical Obama and the loony left is. Not to mention misogynist.

‘Spoke to a group of 20-somethings yesterday. Most of them in their late 20′s, all professional Christian moms and dads with growing families and concerns. Many of them were burdened with pro Obama, anti McCain misinformation and it was a great opportunity to set the record straight.
No, I didn’t give them a GOP stump speech. I simply asked them to, for a moment, look at ALL the candidates through the prism of Christ’s word and works — then tell yourself, honestly, would to you see.
McCain is no saint, he’s a crusty old fart with 7 houses full of closets and bones. But at the end of the day, he is not a made man bought and paid for by the corrupt Chicago political hegemony.
If Americans had any clue about what goes on in Chicago, and how a “star panel” of Chicago Dons purchased Obama, there would be a national outcry.

Can this “j” commenter kindly shut the hell up and allow people to vote on whatever beliefs they so choose? This STILL is a free country, is it not?

There is a thing called “Freedom of speech”. To vote against everything Hillary stood for to teach the democrats a lesson is stupid.
So basically most of you don’t care that you will have 4 more years of misery, but you will have taught the democrats a lesson. That’s a real intelligent way of thinking.
Vote for Mickey Mouse, I could care less. Don’t whine and complain when this country finally falls. It will be your own fault. But by gosh you taught the democrats a lesson!

Barack Obama and company were very clever in using the caucus system to eke out a win in the democratic primary. Unfortunatly, the more qualified democratic candidate is not on the ticket. He had the opportunity to add her to the ticket, but lacked the courage to make a choice for women in America. It’s going to take a lot more than clever to be a good president.

Thanks so much to Robert Hewson for posting that very revealing article from the Wall ST. Journal (hardly a “left-wing liberal’ newspaper, showing how Sarah Palin “shook up” the town of Wasilla by totally screwing up re. the sports complex project- doing construction for the project BEFORE the city had title to the land, and landing the city in huge debt ($1.3 million- a lot for their budget!) Where is a good community organizer when you need one! This is what happens when you give “actual responsibilties” to someone who cannot handle them. But we shouldn’t really worry, being president, or even VP of the USA will be much easier to handle.

J, I think most of America is stupid. They voted twice for Bush. Now they want to vote for McCain to teach dems a lesson. How backward is that.

When this country finally crumbles it will be the stupidity of the American voter that caused it.
Posted by: J | Sep 8, 2008 10:44:02 AM
This country’s inevitable collapse will not be diverted by the Anointed One. The US’ fate has been set decades ago and will accelerate when amnesty is passed. Both Obama and McCain want amnesty. McCain SAID he heard the will of the people. We’ll see and I hope he is telling the truth. Obama made no such statements.

I was a strong McCain supporter, however Palin is not someone I would want to be president. It really makes me question McCain’s judgment. How do I now he won’t roll the dice on the economy, something he admits not knowing about, or even Iran or Russia. I think we need a thoughtful president and I’m just not convinced that McCain is that person anymore.

Obama just another empty suit.

dl your post proves what a brainless moron can sound like to a T.

Posted by: Lavern Morris | Sep 8, 2008 10:56:31 AM
Lavern’s venom is one reason Obama’s image is being tarnished and his numbers are fading. But please Lavern, do go on about “Repugnantcans”.

Obama’s INCESSANT mentioning of George Bush is really getting old and TIRED. How about a ‘change’, Obama? He seems to have forgotten that he’s running against McCain/Palin. But I do see that the first post by numbnuts “Head of State” is trying to now link Palin to Bush. Sad. You kids are going to have to do much better than that to prevent your boy Obama from nose-diving in the polls any quicker!

No worries. The moral majority is silent, civil and has common sense. Once the convention bump is over, (this info is actually “old” now) and actual debates get under way – see the AARP site for some dialogue with “meat” – the tide will turn again.
I am disappointed in women who will vote the ticket because of a woman.
That really won’t help women.
Obama/Biden ’08

Laverne its because the Billy Bubba vote is purchable with a NASCAR race and a bottle of Bud Light.

McCain is up in the polls as he should be after the convention. I am surprised that he isn’t up by more though.

zz I’m not surprised, he would have been except for his choise of VP.

Of course Laverne in Alaska thats a snow mobile race and a frozen Bud light.

No k that your Republican crapola machine that paints people they don’t know un believers, sorry I don’t wear my christianity on my sleeve as most Republicans do and say God Bless American then turn aroumnd and cuss out the reportes forgetting the microphomes are still on. Thanks any way but i attend church every Sunday Methodist to be exact. But thanks for being the bigot you are moron.

Why are all those socialists who trashed Hillary Clinton now so eager to have her rescue the sinking blowhard? I think it’s called discontinuous thinking.

Yes Ernest, we can see where you wear your “christianity” (I think you meant Christianity) and it certainly is not on your sleeve. Maybe you need to attend your “church” a little more often as you seem to have missed the whole Christian values/respect thy neighbor thing.

Lets see Palin said they put the plane on E-Bay(big clap) Plane was not sold on E-Bay but by a sales service and at a loss to a campaign supporter of Ms Palin(any one surprisedZ) ommission of full truth.
She says she is against ear marks but as Mayor of Po Dunk Alaska had Congress lobbyied for 27 million dollars in ear marks for a total of $4,000. per person in Wasilla. Some more ommissions of fuill truth.
Has no regard for her own Daughter ahd drags the girl out infront of the entire nation with her boyfriend, how humiliating a treatment can you inflict on your own kid.

Peter here is a leftist shill. Real coy, Peter. No one noticed, you “conservative leaning independent”, you.

Peter, that affair crap is BS. The DUI for her husband drinking a few beers happened 20 years ago; the same time that Obama admitted he was snorting cocaine.

LEMMING -
Obama wants to talk about the policy differences between himself and McCain. THAT’S BORING – turn on the football game!
The Republicans have learned that Americans don’t vote based on policy. As a whole, we’re too stupid to understand policy implications anyway.
Americans vote based on who they would rather have as their next-door neighbor. So they put a waving flag behind them and say words like “freedom”, “victory”, and “patriotism” about 500 times a minute.
Republicans never get specific about HOW they will help the country and they will never elaborate on WHAT constitutes “victory”. The reason is they don’t have a real plan or a clear goal, but it doesn’t matter.
Since they are obviously more “patriotic” – didn’t you see the flag waving behind them? – we’ll vote them into office.
DEMS NEED WAKE UP AND QUIT TALKING ABOUT DOMESTIC ECONOMIC PLANS, HEALTH CARE, HUMAN RIGHTS, AND INTERNATIONAL CONCERNS. No one cares!
The Dems need to hire some nice looking, unthreatening white people who “obviously” love America because they have “small town” values. I know it’s a completely generic statement and doesn’t have any quantifiable meaning, but it sure sounds nice doesn’t it?

“The Dems need to hire some nice looking, unthreatening white people who “obviously” love America because they have “small town” values.”

That’s exactly what the Dummocraps do already; hand-pick the crowd sitting behind Obama (women with Muslim scarves need not apply).

Once they can get the spins of her past record worked out, please let Sarah do interviews with Fox News and the like so all these doubters can get the truth!
The national news media is just too mean and disrespectful. Sarah’s pure nature may become corrupted by all those evil journalists. It’s just not fair to expect a soccer mom to be asked any tough questions.
Keep our beloved Sarah hidden as long as possible.

“Ommission of the truth, is no different than lying.”
OK, then what was Obama’s religion BEFORE Uncle Wright converted him to Christianity 22 years ago??? I think we all know the answer to this.

Least populated is an understatement. There is appox. 1 person per square mile.

Son who only goes to Iraq to avoid jail time.
17 year old un-wed daughter pregnant
Husband with previous DUI
Woman who herself apparently hasn’t learned about birth control at the age of 42.
Woman who drags a 4 month old, special needs, infant onto a national stage to use him as a prop. (Ironic that she CUT aid for special needs kids in Alaska by over 60% – then lied about it in her speech)
IF SHE WAS BLACK, THE HEADLINES WOULD CERTAINLY BE DIFFERENT

Palin 2012 Yea reform that works Alaska survives off of Washingtons teats with billions in ear marks more per person than any other state. Reform indeed, a complete amputation from the American brest would bankrupt that state.

“This is America founded for the purpose of freedom of religion”
Yeah, and the First Amendment, freedom of speech, doofus. B.O. has a serious credibility problem; the America people have a right to know who he REALLY is.

RRR oh please inform us Who Barak Obama is exactly. Don’t miss any of Hannity or Limbaughs talking points now moron we know all of them by heart.

Was Obama’s Freudian slip about his Muslim faith the Wright thing to say?

This is fantastic, the liberals are in total panic. Visit that daily kos site and see how the kooks are going nuts.
“According to the latest USAToday Gallup Poll McCain/Palin leads
Obama/Biden by 10 Points and YES, this is Panic time.” (dailykos, 2008)
McCain you are a master!!! John McCain knows exactly what the nation wants and needs, and he knows that he and Sarah Palin can deliver. He is going to kick that that do nothing government in the butt and make it work like it should.
Country first, McCain/Palin 08

RRR I live in the Piney Woods of East Texas as Billy Bubba an area as you can get. In this neighborhood we have people from all over the world, Pakastan, India, Japan, Jamica, Korea, Germany and South Africa. Funny thing is the kids all get along very well as do all our neighbors and there are Methodists, Mormons, Baptist, Catholics and even some Agnoctics in this hood. There are more Obama signs than McCain displayed. First amendment rights of freedom of speech yea you poeople can keep on lying your way till November all you want.

Actually at RCP it’s McCain Palin +2.1 without gallups tracking and the new CNN numbers! GO Sarah!

RRR My aren’t we the one eyed one browed moron from the republican college of the EIB network of Rush Limbaugh University of Viagra toting dip sh*ts.

Hockey mom Sarah Palin got a great reaction during her convention speech with an unscripted joke (which she also used somewhere the day before) addressed to her fellow hockey moms. Noticing the “Hockey Mom” signs being waved in the audience, Palin quipped:
“You know, they say, the difference between a hockey Mom and a pitbull?… Lipstick!”
Where did she get this line? It couldn’t have been adapted from the sexist comments of John Hagee, the “spiritual advisor” whose endorsement John McCain was forced to renounce after his heinous anti-semitic statements and his calling the Catholic Church the “great whore” came to light, (causing McCain the evangelical vote worries that made him have to pick someone like Palin), could it?
In a particularly demeaning to women part of his book, What Every Man Wants in a Woman, Hagee wrote:
“Do you know the difference between a woman with PMS and a snarling Doberman pinscher? The answer is lipstick.”

All Obama lemmings go this way and that way
All Obama lemmings go this way and that.
When Obama goes this way, his lemmings go this way
When Obama goes that way, his lemmings go that
All Obama lemmings go this way and that way
All Obama lemmings go this way and that.

Palin is nothing more than a paper doll for the oil companies. They are the real power behind the Republican Party.
She was vetted by the oil companies. She was rewarded with the VP slot because of the TransCanadian Pipeline and because she is drill crazy.
Palin is a scandal waiting to happen. And, according to her God speaks through her.

USATODAY POLL: MCCAIN TAKES 10-POINT LEAD OVER OBAMA IN LIKELY VOTERS…
Turn out lights…the party’s over…they say that all good things must end…
It has become crystal clear why the left began shrilling last week over Palin.

Are leftist’s, like Chris Brown above, so daft that they do not see their behavior is utterly atrocious and condescending? You people alienate over half the population of the US with your lunatic vitriol and portentous view of yourselves? You all behave as underdeveloped children in adult bodies.

Lefty-libs with their undies all in a bind over Palin… you just gotta love it!

Right on Trish! How about Obama’s blunder yesterday with Stephanopoulous…..”my Muslim faith…” and then Geoge corrected him and said “Christian faith”. Be very afraid of this man.

Kambui
Palin, Palin, Palin. Sounds really good to me! Now try Obama, Obama, Obama. The words just don’t seem to come out right.
The choice is clear! McCain/Palin!

Here is a very interesting read I found from an unusual and surprisingly religious perspective regarding McCain’s choice of Palin. I highly recommend checking it out:

“Right on Trish! How about Obama’s blunder yesterday with Stephanopoulous…..”my Muslim faith…” and then Geoge corrected him and said “Christian faith”. Be very afraid of this man.”
He is a liar and a phony.

Palin’s meteoric success without privilege and obvious talent for cutting through the typical Washington obfuscation with middle class values and priorities is a breath of fresh air.

The choice of Sarah Palin has not just invigorated the Republican base. It has energized many Democratic women like myself who are eager to see the glass ceiling finally shattered.

“McCain’s running mate, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, speaking in Colorado Springs, Colo., said Fannie and Freddie had “gotten too big and too expensive to the taxpayers.” The companies, however, aren’t taxpayer funded but operate as private companies. The takeover may result in a taxpayer bailout during reorganization”.
——
She’s absolutely right. These corporations are private-public partnerships that have been corrupted by self-dealing. They got too big because they were greedy and pushed through too many risky loans. Now this is going to cost taxpayers. What part of Palin’s statement is incorrect?
McCain/Palin are going to clean house.
Here’s some background info:
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have engaged in fraud, have helped to corrupt the political process, and have helped to raise the price of housing.
First, the fraud and corruption issue: In May 2006, the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (OFHEO), released a “Report of the Special Examination of Fannie Mae.” The report covered the years from 1998-2004 and found that top management at Fannie Mae were engaging in fraud: “By deliberately and intentionally manipulating accounting to hit earnings targets, senior management maximized the bonuses and other executive compensation they received, at the expense of shareholders.”
Fannie Mae is a prolific giver of campaign money to candidates of both political parties. Instead of responding to the serious accusations in the OFHEO report, they had the temerity, according to Bryon York, to lobby “Congress to cut OFHEO’s funds unless it got rid of the top official in charge of investigating Fannie Mae.” Further, they continue to spend much money lobbying Congress. In the first quarter of 2008 alone, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac spent about $3.5 million on lobbying and hired 42 outside firms in this effort.

Palin\McCain are doing the same thing Bush did with Rove. Attack about attacks that never happened.
“Stop attacking my daughter”
No one attacked her.
There have been questions about a woman leading a family in a pro-choice houshold advocating abstinance that can’t even get her own daughter to keep her legs together.
The illusion that anyone putting her under investigation is an attack is weak.
She needs to start answering questions publicly and truthfully. She is not immune to questioning. She put her life out there as a candidate. She better start acting like a servent and less like our master if she wants the job.

Ladies vote for Nader/Gonzalez instead of Mccain/Palin.

What a massive ego that Ralph Nader must have that he thinks ANYONE in this country actually gives chit about him!

THANK YOU, Senator McCain !!! There are many of us here in the Pacific Northwest who were not at all excited about the candidate either major party offered, but your choice of Sarah Palin has certainly changed that. Until you selected Ms. Palin, I was watching golf on TV instead of politics during this election year. Having Sarah on the GOP ticket has changed all that. We now look forward to voting in November. Go Sarah !!!

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++=
At least she won’t have to worry about facing Dirt Oberman and Slobber Mouth Matthews. They have been relegated to the junk heap.
So, libs want her to just jump out and face the likes of Katie, Forehead Bagala, Brazille, The Snake, and the rest of the liberals who have been doing this for 30 years. You would love it when they do her like they did Bush, ask “Who is the leader of Bullshitizan?”
When she is up on national issues, she will smack them down like the little pukes that they are.

Oh, and “abby0802″, last I heard there are only two things that come out of Texas, q*eers and steers. Which one are you?
You seem to know a lot about what comes out of a cow.
Yeeeeeee HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!
Palin – 08

Obama refused to answer questions about his national security stance when he was interview on FOX News. Simply put, he has no answers but blasts his opponents because they do. He is a dud and a fake. But he is a showman and a joke.

Palin being the VP pick for the GOP has energized this Democratic female!! I’ll be canvassing the neigborhood for Obama, giving more $$ to the campaign, and doing all that I can to get Obama/Biden elected on November 4!! October 6 is the last day for voter registration in my state!! Fired up and ready to go!!

Talk about not knowing records…
You can’t know Jr’s (Senator Obama) record because he is afraid to establish one! Even the left-pandering CNN acknowledges 129 bills without voting yes or No!!
Can we find out why or is he afraid he might offend some one or change his mind… again… his talk about disingenuous is exactly that!

nic, it’s been fun! got to go…
but, if your folks had picked Hilary, I don’t think you’d need to be so touchy… you’d probably still have a lead!
So much for the self-proclaimed genius and his brilliant decision making ability, ehhh!?

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++=
Hey, Neg, er, niccolio, what business is it of yours about Palin’s family. I thought liberals were all about “what goes on in the bedroom is no body’s business”????? Remember, liberals said “Sodomy is Personal Business”. And, how about “Gay Marriage”??? Haven’t liberals said “Sexual lifestyle is no one’s business”????
Oops, sorry. I forgot. Loony liberals want you to stay out of THEIR bedrooms but want to control everyone ELSE’S lives. Can you say the word HYPOCRITE.
I just bet you that most liberals are skared of Palin because she could KICK YOUR BUTTS.
Isn’t that the reason, nico-boy?
Palin – 08

Robert Hewson: Well, it looks like Palin shook up the democrats that thought they had it in the bag. Obama was so smug and arrogant he thought he was the president already. Palin is a smart women and I don’t blame her for not talking to the press. The press ruins people by their add on to the story you tell them. McCain is leading in the polls at this time and I believe he will keep his lead. There was a large line of people waiting to hear Palin in Missouri. McCain is drawing several thousand and Obama is not the celebrity anymore.

d: God help us if Obama wins. Look for repeat of the 1929 depression and don’t think it can’t happen. He can’t count 2 + 2 = 4. He thinks it equals 5. And big mouth Biden, what a joke. A racist, white hating anti-american campaigning for president. Why didn’t he pick his close friend Ayers for his VP? That he says he doesn’t know. He couldn’t run a cleaning plant much less this country.

Reason: How could Obama go after Palin when he doesn’t have the intelligence to run this country. She can match him head to toe and he was a senator for about three years. Biden will be running the country instead of Obama because all he can do is speak on the platform with speeches from the book of RFK who used the words hope and change. Bill Clinton used the word change in his campaigning that’s where Obama pick it up from. He didn’t originate it.

Carrie: You are so right. But those that make comments about Palin are jealous because they never succeeded like she did and it is eating them up she became a mayor first then governor and now a VP. Jealousy is a disease and there are people that are jealous of what other people have. Palin worked her way up and she didn’t associate with trash like Obama and her house wasn’t paid for by a crooked businessman like Rezko.However, you have to expect that because he was a drugger.

I will admit that I have not read the other comments, but I read the one about how Gov. Palin is like President Bush.
Here’s is how Senator Obama running in 2008 is like Gov. Bush running in 2000:
1. Claims to be a uniter, not a divider; fails miserably
2. Supporters spew hateful political vomit on one of the other candidate’s children, but candidate himself has “nothing to do with it” wink,wink
3. Stopped cold by New Hampshire
4. Uses race-baiting to recover from loss in New Hampshire
5. Hates the Clintons

Obama peaked to early. It is sad really!
Gallup shows the tides are changing!
Palin and McCain rock!
Democrat for McCain – Palin 2008
If you believe in polls, you are sad!

Don’t go getting your bowels in an uproar Repub’s the bump always follows each convention, so can the rapture wait for the reality.

The republicans put a moratorium on nuclear power under the administration of Ronald Regan and for more than twenty five years you people in the good old US of A forgot about your infrastructure.The energy policies you continued to follow has now come back to haunt you.The crisis in California with respect to electricity was a result of you not investing and understanding the value of “the true green power that being nuclear.Not four years ago you lost the eastern seaboard grid and now the Republican are calling for 45 new plants.Do you know how long it will take to achieve this,try the 25 years you lost.How many more people are you going to lose in coal mines not to mention the environmental impact you deliver to the planet and by the way you don’t own the planet! T Bone Pickens or shall I say Bone Head Pickens wants to capture the wind and have hydrogen cars?electric battery operated auto Hmmm what you gonna plug them into? Oh wind power excellent.McCain does know one thing though France is miles ahead of you guys when it comes to energy policy.Just one more thing ask Sarah who the Prime Minister of Canada is “hint it a foreign affairs question seeing that where right next to her you know like Russia.Guys do yourself a favor vote for Obama

It’s true. I wasn’t quite sure even for voting. Bit I decided to vote for McCain/Palin ticket after listening her talk. Palin is an excellent choice, sorry for Obama camp.

My family is ready for change and leaders with experience, and cares about the country and the world’s future. I’m looking forward to raising my kids in a McCain/Palin world!!!!
>>>> McCAIN/PALIN ’08 IS “IN” <<<<

—————————————-
Nicholoi, the bus with the guys in the white suits are here for you.
Oh, you are already gone?
Contrary to the true experience of a “community organ grinder”, poor Sarah Palin was so dumb that she never voted “Present” when she was mayor and was term limited out. Like a dummy, she never voted “Present” when she was guvner either.
What was that dumb woman thinking?
Didn’t she know that she didn’t really have to actually make decisions to run for president or vice president???
Dumb, truly dumb.
Palin – 08

Here-here RoBoTech!! Stop the Marxist/Socialist Obama!!
Experience beats eloquence in my book. Even Biden himself said that the Jr. Senator Obama is not ready.
All the Liberals on this blog really need to listen to the truth being told by guys like Limbaugh, Hannity, and Levin – not those demoted hosts Matthews and Keith Olbermann. Educate yourselves, people!!
McCain – Palin ’08

Carrie,
Go ahead and vote for Palin…..I mean McCain. But the hypocrites are the Republicans….they were the ones looking down their noses when John Edwards took his children on the campaign. They are the ones who do not support women’s rights policies. Democrats are merely pointing out this hypocrisy….

Gomer PYLE USMC, you’re not a real marine, but I am!

Ode to Sarah:
“Up Against the Wall Redneck Mother”!
Should she win, will she be speaking in tongues when she addresses her cabinet?
Oh, I forgot, McCain is the REAL candidate. Heh, heh, don’t you know he’s loving this. Sitting in the background dribbling oatmeal on his bib!

Who is John McCain,son and grandson of admirals,does that make him a leader? Navy pilot,shot down over North Vietnam, spent 5 1/2 years being brainwashed and tortured by his captors,can he be trusted to lead the country? Senator from Arizona,was involved in the Keating savings and loan scandal which cost the American tax payers 2.5 billion dollars,accepted gifts and gratuites from Keating, vacationed at Keatings’ vacation home in the Bahamas, Who is McCain trying to fool, who made him a hero ,wasn’t it the left wing media? Can we really trust McCain to lead ?And to where?You might put a pretty face on it but it’s the same old failed conservative policy.

sorry – no nee-groes in white house (blowing farts and drinking beer)
