For Second Time, Palin Meets the Press

maybe Palin will play a lost moose on SNL

Sarah Palin was hand picked to be the cute “pit bull in lipstick” for the McCain campaign. For those that understand the “Stepford Wife” allusion, we know she has been programmed to spew vile lies, false insuations, and say key words to associate McCain’s opponent in her words only to the vile she robotically repeats. It has been an insult to the majority of U.S. citizens’ ability to think critically and research the facts. She is NOT my research source. Hopefully, the majority will rise above the “Joe-Six-Pack-Plummer” references from a self-righteous separatist. I like to think we U.S. citizens are smarter than believing a party puppet.

Palin…and her false INSINUATIONS…

Seven minutes to convince anyone listening she is not a lost cause.
Times up. She’s a lost cause.

Can’t help thinking it wasn’t her decency speaking, but instructions from McCain. Buried behind the mean-spirited attacks and disguised by his grouchiness and temper, there is still some decency. Palin’s ‘decency’ seems to be reserved for those that she regards as being her sort of people. Democrats and moderates on the other hand are fair game.

How come no one in the press mentions Palin’s own minister, Thomas Muthee, the one who exorcised Palin’s “witches” and who has an anti-Semitic agenda? There’s all kinds of reliable sources out there, even a vid of this jerk spouting his hate while Palin sat in the audience, but the mainstream media doesn’t mention it. Nor did the press say a word when Palin quoted Westbrook Pegler, an openly vicious racist and anti-Semitic writer, at her RNC speech. This is who Sarah Palin is: a right-wing religious fundamentalist who admires racists and anti-Semites, who wants to shove her religious beliefs down the throats and into the uteruses of every American. So, how come you guys fawn all over her in the thirty seconds the McCain campaign lets her give you every few weeks?
Ditto for Palin and her husband’s involvement in the rabidly anti-American Alaska Independence Party. Why isn’t the press all over her, instead of giving her talking points on the stupid recycled Ayers and Wright stories? The AIP have said things that make the youthful Ayers sound like a Sunday school teacher. How about letting the public know?
How come no one in the “liberal media” asks McCain about his continuing relationship with Gordon Liddy?
How come all the press is talking about ACORN, when they have to admit ACORN hasn’t done anything wrong, while meanwhile, all over the country, the GOP is using all the cheap tricks in the book to get voters whom they fear disenfranchised, like they did for the past two elections? They’re pros at cheating, but no one gives them a hard time.
Now I see reporters are getting attacked at Palin rallies for not being reverent enough. Serves you guys right. Maybe you’ll do some real reporting.
Not holding my breath, though.

It is obvious from the idiotic posts by Senator Obama’s supporters that Governor Palin has shaken Obama’s campaign, in spite of the press having taken every opportunity to try to discredit her.
McCain/Palin ’08

Great, now I’m gonna miss another night of SNL. Thanks Sarah! I can’t really see her doing comedy or there being any motivation to bother setting my tivo. We already know enough about her…It’s bad enough thinking about McCain’s short temper and poor judgement in running the country but to think of Palin’s lack of knowledge or much of anything else. She’s kind of like an empty box. Not much to it or in it…empty space between the ears. It’s too bad McCain couldn’t have found a better pick for this. I mean this isn’t a beauty contest. He’s too old and she’s just too much of an airhead.

Shes perfect for SNL considering her nomination is a joke.

I’m with Eric. The left-wing liberals and the media have been HORRIBLE with their disrespect for Sarah Palin- who is running for Vice President and has more experience than “The One.”
If SNL doesn’t railroad Sarah on the show- her sincerity and genuine love FOR her country and pride FOR her country -will shine through.
What a better place for Sarah to “get through” to the young people whose frame of reference doesn’t KNOW a lot of history- and shamefully- the American educational system – has failed to teach them.
McCain-Palin 2008
P.S. Please don’t through your vote away by “writing in” Hillary, Huckabee, Romney, Paul or Barr- to make a “statement”
It will just weaken the statement that we God fearing, Country LOVING people have to make.
I can’t bear to think of a first lady who feels that “America is a downright mean country.”
The liberal left are mean, angry, disrepectful- SCARY people.

Vote Obama for your children!!
Maybe Osama bin Laden’s children.

Alec, The liberal left are mean and scary? have you BEEN to a McCain Palin hate Rally? From what Ive seen of them and heard from McCains ads, and heard from right wing bloggers you guys are the meanest hateful people on the earth. Its interesting that you dont hear liberals calling for anyone to be killed, or beheaded. The right wing have always been this way. The liberals are generally peaceful people who want only truth and fairness, and if they dont get it they might complain, but they dont often call for the death of anyone. We dont even like the death penalty for crying out loud. You guys are the scary ones!

McCain’s Ayers- Hiding G. Gordan Liddy Connection:….
Take a good look at the PEOPLE that John McCain “associates” with.
John McCain was on the David Letterman show on Thursday and the quote most people have watched is where McCain says “I screwed up”. His body language is that of Oops! But further on into the show McCain then said this. “I’m not in any way embarassed to know GORDAN LIDDY.”
READ ON: Nixon impeached- America’s Honorable Republicans……
Others included plotting to murder journalist Jack Anderson; plotting with a “gangland figure” to murder Howard Hunt to stop him from cooperating with investigators; plotting to firebomb the Brookings Institution; and plotting to kidnap “leftist guerillas” at the 1972 Republican National Convention, kidnapping anti-war activists and transporting them to Mexico and arranging call girls to catch Democrats in compromising situations.
Liddy is most famous for the break in at the Watergate Hotel. Basically, the “plumbers” were caught breaking into the Democratic National Committee Headquarters housed at the Watergate hotel. Their intention was to bug the phones and put in a “room monitoring device”.
Liddy was sentenced to over 21 years in prison. He served four and a half years in prison after being convicted of conspiracy, burglary and illegal wiretapping. Liddy’s sentence was commuted by President Carter.

Sarah Palin is not newsworthy….
Anyone who is found to break an ethics law, then lie about it, is not worth a vote.
She said in NC yesterday, that only small town americans are Pro America… so since I live in a big city, that means I am UnAmerican?
She says she runs a transparent government, then charges the AP 15 million dollars to get copies of all the emails her staff and her sent to her husband?
Why the media does not ask about this is beyond me…
I guess its because the McCain/Palin campaign has 2 coward cards they play.
1.you talk about Palin and they play the sexism card.
2. you talk about McCains terrorist/radical associations and he uses the “I will sue you ” card.
So the media cowers to McCain and never reports the stories to the public, but they will beat the same horse to death on Ayers, Wright and Acorn.
Guess the MSM hasn’t grown a pair yet and do the right thing and report all stories, no matter what.
But they report this garbage, about Palin talking to the reporters on her plane, and yet not one reporter had the nerve to ask a serious question?
I have lost any use for the MSM, they just have no clue on how to report anymore.

G.Gordon Liddy never bombed anyone. Obama’s friend did.

“More than 25,000 Hoosiers welcome veep hopeful Sarah Palin to Noblesville-” Terre Haute News
Amazing how Gov. Palin continues to draw record crowds wherever she goes-and w/o a rock band as a come-on.
Imagine-all those misguided people.-:)
Thanks for the forum.

Sarah Palin connects with MOST Americans because she is down to earth and doesn’t spout the same rhetoric like Barack Obama.She has led reform in Alaska, and given money back to the tax payers, so why wouldn’t every citizen be rooting for a chance for REAL CHANGE, instead of trusting Obama, who has a record of raising taxe 94 times?If he got elected, that magic $250,000 salary could magically drop to $100,000 so he can pay for his GLOBAL POVERTY ACT(read about it on IBD editorials.com(Obama’s Global Tax)!Keep speaking for America, Sarah.We need common sense in Washington instead of the rhetoric of a lawyer!

I have to disagree with Alec in his defense of Palin.
He is concerned that young people don’t know a lot of history and that the education system has failed to teach them.
Unfortunately it is Palin who has shown in the few interviews that she has done that she is ignorant at least of recent world history and of much national history. And from her unscripted statements she is proud of this ignorance. Furthermore it is her school system and those like it that has led to the poor knowledge among young people. In her time as mayor and governor she has been more concerned about ensuring equal time for creationism alongside science and about working out what books she can ban from libraries.

MIGuy, What makes good people so mad is the negative attacks and low life tactics of McCain and Palin, as evidenced by the polls.

It is true that Palin’s rhetoric and Obama’s are quite different and at times equally meaningless. The difference is that Palin uses her talent to insult, deride and divide while Obama provides more “hope”. So while both “connect” with Americans, Palin connects in a demonstrably and deliberately polarizing fashion.

“I know Obama loves America. I’m sure that is why he’s running for president. It’s because he wants to do what he believes is in the best interest of this great nation. I believe that our ticket can do a better job for America,” Palin said. “But I don’t question at all Barack Obama’s love for this great country.”
Sarah Palin, is this what lies behind your McCarthyist speeches? Can you now rein in Michele Bachmann who shares your ability to make hate speeches with a smile?

Undisputable FACT: Obama was, and is, friends with a known and nonrepetant terrorist. The fact that he continues to lie about it is sheer proof at how dangerous this association is.
I found it HIGH-larious that the Obama-ites continue to question Palin’s experience, yet they completely have no defense at the scary thought of the razor thin resume of Obama, and the complete lack of experience he brings to the table. To claim Palin, who is running for vice president, is inexperienced when Obama is ridiculously unprepared for the job, is utterly laughable.
God bless President McCain, who will save America, yet again, this time from the threat of Obama.

what a complete joke as mccains first and most important executive decision… “pro-america”?… what a divisive comment… no wonder america is rejecting her and mccain in what will prove to be a landslide election for a new powerful leader and direction for our great country

You don’t find it unusual that PTA experience is continually brought up as one of Palin’s crucial pieces of experience?
You might not like Obama, or that he was a community organizer, but can’t you admit that he’s run one heck of a campaign? I know, now comes the ‘he’s stealing the election – ACORN – the fabric of America is being destroyed’. Honestly, that’s just being a sore loser. This is politics. Even Al Gore figured that out eventually.

The press continues to report on Obama’s “questionable acquaintance” with Ayers and Wright. What I don’t understand is why there is no reports about Todd Palin’s association with membership in the Alasak Indepence Party. This is a group that has ties to hostile foreign government (Iran) and has members who do not consider themselves American.
Todd Palin is a former member and Sarah, has spoken at their conventions on their behalf many times. Why is no one raising this fact in the media? Were Sarah Palin to become VP the issue would have to be dealt with. Could the Palin’s be given security clearance under these circumstances? This is an organization that wants to secede from the United States. Anyone who is a member of this party and their associates(Sarah) deserves to brought to the attention of the American people.

If Obama’s ties to Ayers can be repeated over and over in the press why isn’t Sarah Palin’s assocations being given equal time?
I demand equal time for Sarah Palin’s associates to be discussed in the press too.

Alec, Relax, the commies arent coming to get you ok? Take your prozac now and go lie down. You nationalists sure get fired up. Yes they did yell kill him at least one time, Im not saying they didnt tone down their rhetoric after they realized they could be arrested for that, but that doesnt mean they dont still mean it. And Im not saying they said it about Obama, they probably said it about Ayers, but still its a crowd of riled up people yelling about killing someone and it doesnt make it ok because it was about Ayers or anyone else, its still about killing.

WOW..HATE IS OOZING OUT OF YOUR MOOSE MOUTH SARAH FAILIN PALIN. YOU WANT TO SHOW YOUR SENSE OF HUMOR? HAH. HAH. HAH. YOU SHOULD HAVE A SENSE OF CIVILITY AND HONESTY, BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, A SENSE OF MOTHERHOOD. HOW’S YOUR PREGNANT TEENAGER DOING? WHEN IS GOING TO HAVE HER BABY? I WISH HER WELL.

why are all your republicans so mean and bitter?

Yeah- according to Barack Obama- us Pennsylvanians are “bitter Americans-clinging to our guns and religion,” while speaking to a left-wing findraiser in San Francisco.
We are hard working Americans who don’t want Socialist and an ENLARGED welfare state?

really fairfax….”All illegal immigrants will be required to register with the US government or be sent back.”…Hummm would it surprise you to know that statement was made by your Dem Nancy Pelosi today???? Gee sounds like fascist state to me

– According to Barack Obama- us Pennsylvanians are “bitter Americans-clinging to our guns and religion,” –
Not exactly what he said…
He said: “You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing’s replaced them. And it’s not surprising, then, they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.”
And having lived there, he is spot on regarding how many feel.

To require that illegal activity be reigned in sounds like enforcement of the law to me.

it is sad that the media won’t demand palin answer real questions.

fairfax Unless of course that same statement had been made by a repub chances are you would have been the first to cry racism or unfeeling or mean spirited or my personal favorite, intolerance…geez the dems have controlled the house and senate since 2006 but yet the kenndey and mccain immigration reform bill was never passed now all of a sudden the Dems find religion and want to round up the illegals…WHO IS NEXT..Again…sounds like fascist state to me….

Acutally, ‘concerned’ posted the condensed version.. here is the full one:
“You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing’s replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton administration and the Bush administration and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are going to regenerate and they have not, And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations”.
Maybe he could of worded it better, but he was expressing his understanding and concern for them, how previous administrations had failed them, and his determination to make their lives better by trying to return jobs to their communities. I’ve never heard McCain say anything even close to expressing his understanding of the situation except for grand general comments and him saying he knows how to get the job done (without explaining exactly how).

– If the Leftists are so sure Obama’s going to win, then why the rancor over Sarah Palin, the insults and the smears? –
Because it showcases how low some Americans expectations have become regarding our elected leaders, and how a party can scrape the bottom of the barrel and still have people bend over and take it, and ask for even more by cheering and defending them on.
Perhaps Bush has desensitized people to what ignorance in leadership does and caused people to forget that in the past this was a nation who promoted the best and brightest for a good reason. Perhaps it is that some people simply vote their party regardless of issues, and perhaps it is just our long history of intolerance and fear rearing it’s ugly head once again.

As I see it now, Obama is changing from his black liberation theology, and he is more into white liberation theology.

Just in case you’re new here – someone here (posing as several) has about 20 browsers opened up on his old IBM tower PC and is posting all of this anti-Obama stuff on every single political blog here, CNN and MSNBC. Oh ya, and even Alaska Daily News. Its the same person – after you’ve been here for a while you will just IGNORE like the rest of us. You can spot him a mile a way by his screen names (usually female or ‘independent something’ or ‘former dem’ or a european name). The same cut & paste blah blah as well as spelling and grammar patterns – so obvious.

I also believe that you need to look toward the Democratic party, for examples of “intolerant behavior” as it has not been exclusively limited to the Republicans. This election has created mis-trust among the Republicans,because of one sided representation of the media and others that it will be nearly impossible for obama to be excepted by them..Being labeled a racist or intolerant or unfeeling simply because of different belief in policy has been grossly unfair…Repubs will feel toward obama as Dems have felt against Bush…That is what this election has created…Change..NOT REALLY..

Obama/Biden are for the people period !!!
They have well laid out plan for the American people.
They haven’t waviered or swayed from that plan for us.
McCain/Palin can’t even get their facts straight. Half the time the aren’t even on the same page. They spend their time spewing lies, attacks, and now this underhanded robocalling.
No way, no how can I give a vote to a man that is hooked to Bush’s hip….
Obama/Biden they got it going on !!!!!

Way to go Palin. You don’t have to mention Obama’s past. We already knew about his fakeness and hideousity.

Despicable, dishonest, uninformed and unintelligent. Great adjectives to describe Palin and great adjectives to describe the next possible Commander in Chief should Gramps McCain go down …
Caribou Barbie has the unimitigated gall to trot out her son’s service in Iraq as a comeback to some well deserved heckling at her rallies. What does our Iraqi occupation and deposition of Saddam Hussein have to do with our freedom of speech, anyway?

I think everyone will be scared once they put Obama in the White House. I really don’t see how a far left wing socialist is going to make our economy better? Have you listened to the fact that he’s going to raise your taxes and promises to give health insurance that we don’t have a budget for. Where is he going to get that money? He’s either A. going to increase the deficit or B he’s going to tax you more. And who exactly is going to get all this money he’s going to redistribute? My guess is people already on welfare that are tax dollars are paying to sit on their butt.
The media would love for everyone to believe Sarah Palin is an idiot, but she’s far from it. She may have stumbled on some questions, but look at her record. She cut property tax in Alaska, and even cut her own salary as Mayor 10% to help give money back to the tax payers. Obama has voted to increase taxes basically his entire career. Why anyone would even consider Obama is beyond me. I’ve already voted, but maybe I should head up to Ohio. I hear you can get a few more votes in up there and you don’t even have to be from the state, heck even the country.

– Have you listened to the fact that he’s going to raise your taxes and promises to give health insurance that we don’t have a budget for. –
You are indeed one uninformed voter.
First off, taxes are needed to pay for government spending. Obama will modestly raise taxes for those families earning over $250, and will reduce taxes more for the middle class than McCain would (under McCains plan, you need to earn $100K or more to see a tax cut).
And nobody is giving insurance away for free. Both McCain and Obamas health plans will cost roughly the same, but Obama would allow more americans to obtain insurance and be more efficent in doing so. McCains health plan, just like his tax plan favors the wealthy, and would result in more americans losing insurance.
http://www.epi.org/content.cfm/pm126
Please do some research before you go repeating the same uninformed lies.

This election is no more divisive than the previous five and, in many ways, less so…

jo i guess you have not kept up with information REGARDING the alledged comment ‘kill him’ at a palin rally which was PROVED FALSE AS PER A REPORT BY THE SECRET SERVICE WHO WERE PRESENT REPORT WENT OUT TODAY. so instead of posting lies and rumors do some research.
goodnight

http://www.236.com/feed/2008/10/08/palin_and_the_successionists_9421.php
why isn’t this talked about more and why isn’t she asked questions about her involvement with the AIP???????????

“I’m not uninformed, and I’m well aware taxes are needed for government spending, no one said we were going to be tax free. When taxes increase so does everything else, and that will not produce more jobs.”
When taxes increase a bit more for those who are making more, and do not increase for the vast majority of those who are making less, that vast majority can then put more money back in the economy that they would otherwise be paying in taxes.
So yes, it does produce jobs because it creates more a demand for products due to increased spending, which in turn creates jobs..and in the end puts more money BACK into the hands of the wealthy who employed the middle or lower middle class.

Vote Obama for your children!!

“…the outright hatred expressed toward anybody that does not support obama is shocking…”

– Concerned American since when is telling the truth considered a smear. as i remember she brought up rev. wright and obmas 20 year association with him that is not a smear that is the truth. –
It is an attack on his character, not his platform. Call it what you like, but for most, it is known as a guilt-by-association fallacy. That was the point, the focus of McCains ads are strictly against the man, not the platform, while the reverse is true with Obama ads. There are plenty of guilt-by-association fallacies that could be brought up against McCain, such his involvement in the largest S&L meltdown in our history, his involvement in the Iran-contra scandal, his legislation and support, both in congress and covertly while sitting on the advisory board of the US Council for World Freedom providing funding and arms for the Kosovo Liberation Army. And the list goes on.
If you are unable or unwilling to see the difference, then any further explanations for your behalf would simply be a waste of electrons.

After Obama wanted a man who may or may not make a $250,000 year income to “spead the wealth around”, that will no. 1001 reason to not vote for the man.
McCain/Palin for a better and happier tomorrow for Americans who believes in intergity, honesty and real experience needed for the office of President–not a community organizer.

Sarah Palin is so full of herself, McCain only further embarrassed the Republican Party with her as his VP pick.She is arrogant, close minded and not nearly qualified to be in such a high level position. Her attempts at being humorous only further add fire to my dislike of her, this Country is hurting bad and needs serious minded people in office. This campaign has only brought out hatred, fear and division amongst the American public.We are all so busy listening to personal attacks, but where are the solutions?
Only 2 public times with the press, the first one a flop and this one is basically a wash to make everyone forget the first.WTF, This lady could be running this Country, if God forbid McCain passed, and we have no clue as to what she stands for.

– After Obama wanted a man who may or may not make a $250,000 year income to “spead the wealth around”, that will no. 1001 reason to not vote for the man. –
The above rational is a misnomer. Everyone pays taxes to support government spending. Modest increases to the 5% who earn over $250K is not spreading the wealth around. Everyone pays taxes, and it all goes to the government to fund things like homeland security, the armed forces, parks and recreation, various regulatory and administrative departments..
You cannot cut taxes and expect to raise spending, such as deciding to invade a foreign country unprovoked and spend $10 billion a month doing so.
Why do you think Bush, in his first year in office, managed to take a balanced budget and federal surplus and raise the deficit by $133 billion?

6. As Governor, Sarah Palin RAISED taxes from around 10% to 20% on oil revenues. She REDISTRIBUTED the increased tax revenues to the citizens of Alaska – EXACTLY LIKE A SOCIALIST.
—-
I’m curious how you Palin supporters account for this inconvenient fact…
…Sarah Palin is as much a socialist as Hugo Chavez, President of Venezuela – both tax oil companies and then redistribute the wealth.

Concerned American you say hillary and mccain attack the character and not the platform? well it is hard to attack a non existent platform since it lacks a history to back it up. so we have no way of knowing that he will deliver since he has no history of doing ANYTHING. pretty words and ideas might work for you, but don’t resent us for wanting and execting a proven record. i would expect the same in making a hiring decision to hire somebody to pet sit my dogs let alone hiring somebody to serve as our president.

Mabye they can start her on solid food tommorrow. ABCs can’t be far behind.

If you are so concerned you would have not expected to get welfare “tax cut” from a Zero. 0bama told you he will raise your social security cap to 150K, that’s 3100 bucks tax increase.
well, what you poor less-ducated gun and God hugging bitter people care about. You make only $3000 per year any way, hoping he will give you 33% of your income if you vote for him.

“miguy the way i see it it was the ivy league educated, fat cat insiders that brought our economy to the brink of collapse. as for me i will support the ticket with the citizen politician and the man who above else loves this country/
mccain/palin 08″
I hate to burst your bubble, but that citizen politician is a multimillionaire who “palls around” with other mulimillionaires, and certainly DOES NOT pal around with regular Joe citizens or even regular Joe plumbers.

Nevada 2
“…but don’t resent us for wanting and execting a proven record…”
—
McCain’s “proven” record.
1. Making the wrong call about the decision to go to war in Iraq. Continue an endless occupation of Iraq.
2. Privatize Social Security
3. Supporting the policies of deregulation that have led to the current melt-down in our financial markets.
4. Over the course of four weeks developing, proposing several entirely different, contradictory economic policies.
5. Cutting taxes, keeping spending steady, increasing the deficit and the national debt.
6. Privatizing health care, proposing policies that will do little for people who do not have health care, will probably reduce the range and type of health care offered through existing policies, and reduce the number of people who currently have health care.
7. Overturn Roe v. Wade
8. Increase international tensions in the Middle East.
9. Provoke war with Iran.
10. An erratic, irascible temperament.

Palin’s proven record…
She doesn’t have one at the national level, other than a reluctance to give interviews.
See headline to this blog entry:
“For Second Time, Palin Meets the Press”
- Joe the Plumber has given more interviews to the press than Sarah Palin, yet you want to hire her?

– 0bama told you he will raise your social security cap to 150K, that’s 3100 bucks tax increase. –
It’s currently at 102K, so would only change for those who make between $102 and $150K.. your figure of $3100 is not correct, it would be more like $2976 if you earned exactly $150K.
And if you are earning, as you say you are, only $3000 a year, then you don’t have to worry about it anyway.

– Concerned American thanks for making my point sarah did put the checkbook online obama proposes it. –
Apparently your reading comprehension is lacking.. here, I’ll pull out the important part for you:
“In 2006 and 2007, Obama teamed up with Republican Sen. Tom Coburn to pass the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act, also known as “Google for Government.” The act created a free, searchable web site – USASpending.gov — that discloses to the public all federal grants, contracts, loans and insurance payments.”
I don’t see ‘proposes’ in there anywhere, but then again, I don’t have by GOP sunglasses on either.
http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/09/18/palins-transparency-proposal-already-exists-in-dc/

Concerned American,
Who is lying “i’m not going to raise your taxes if you make less than 250K”, be it $3100 or $2975.

Reagan has done little good for this country, knowing nothing of the arm for hostage trade under his nose. Zero is as unfit as Bush is for that job.

m@chiavelli,
have you googled marx’s tombstone? what it says?

– Besides, it is Zero that I am against, –
Which is typical.. your support is not for McCain, simply against Obama.. regardless of what McCains proposals will do to American and it’s citizens. Sad.

concerned,
Don’t think all voters are so easily fooled by Zero’s Harvard smart. Why do you think I worry about getting a tax cut? Why are you so selfish, asking youself, only hoping to get cash or tax cuts from Zero. The country is in deep debt, economy is tanked, your retirement accounts, if you have any, are halfed. Zero promised you trillions of new goodies, yet you only hope to get some spread wealth.
We’d be happy to pay a better america, but not by Zero’s robbing some to buy your vote.
He is unfit. I do not agree with McCain many things, but he is No Bush and he is a reasonable care taker than the alternative, the unfit Zero.

Gibberish–all the way back to Alaska, the only pro-American state, which is getting ready to secede from the Union.

susan 34 us states have entered proposals to secede-it is as ameican as apple pie. if you do the research you will find that most past u.s pres have been residents of states that have sought to secede at one time or another.

–( dz we can’t even credit him with harvard smarts since he won’t release his transcripts )—
Obama released his Harvard transcripts in 2005 and most of his articles are archived on line on their web site.

–If the Leftists are so sure Obama’s going to win, then why the rancor over Sarah Palin, the insults and the smears?
–How can someone who’s ‘obviously’ on a losing ticket be so ‘dangerous’?–
Posted by: Grand Old Party
Gee, Grand Old Party, the same can said about the smears and shouts of Obama being a terrorist and anti-American. How can you Obama-haters be so scared of someone if you’re so sure he’s going to lose.
And if any of you who are shouting anti-American liberals might take the time to read a little history, go check out Joe McCarthy and his “committee” back in the 50s. Talk about right-wing craziness. It’s a shame you people can’t have an opinion and respect a different one at the same time.

Yes, I too am so proud of her for talking on the press. Think of the accomplishment! The courage! This is the sort of fearlessness she will show against our enemies when she is VP, or at the very least when she does the welcome speech for guests at state dinners. In years to come when she runs for office again, she will look back on this day and tell others about her scars from this interrogation and how she faced them down. Just think, with this life experience under her belt, she is now ready to embark on more serious political ventures-like SNL.

Catherine. Big, bad ol media is responsible once again, hmmm? Did they answer the softball questions put before her yesterday, or was it her that answered in her incomprehensible way of talk? The bottom line is that even if a candidate does not agree with the media, they have a responsibility to answer questions, face critics, without the cue card. Can you honestly say she has done that? Do you feel she can do that, because nothing suggests that she can hold her own when she speaks on her own behalf. The best she can do is go on SNL. At this point, it will make her (and her supporters) appear to be just that much more irrelevant and silly. Regardless of what you think of either campaign, do you feel comfortable with this person sitting in the White House? I am so tired of the whining about the media as a way to cover up deficiencies; particulalry given that McCain loved them until his campaign floundered and he chose a novice that does not bear up to the easiest bit of scrutiny. She is a breath of fresh air alright….

Governor Palin has more experience than Barack Obama. As Joe Biden and Hillary said, Obama is not ready to be President. Moreover, Obama and his ACORN group have been submitting thousands of fraudulent votes in all the swing and battleground states to steal the election from McCain. That is how Obama stole the nomination from Hillary by fraudulent votes via ACORN in the tainted red caucus states. The American people should not stand for this.

No more TV news interviews?? But a comedy show is okay with her??

sheri
all she has to do is act natural—or imitate tina–which would be natural.
perhaps she will get lost on the bridge to nowhwere.wonder why she is stopping the hate campaign—one ill informed scary woman.

Did you hear”kill him”?didn’t you?american pleasant media has gone far in supporting sen.Barak Obama,forcing him to lie in the last debate on allegations he didn’t double-cheick.The inestigation is asking a tape where “kill him”is recorded;ABC,CNN,CBS,Chris,Olberman,Madow and consorts,do you have this tape?

joe thr plumber worried about paying taxes—-mccain is a total nut case—that guy is worried about netting over 250 thousand a year–the idiot only makes 40 thousand–and in no way shape or form will he ever net 250 thousand—just more mccain bs—as he dont have a clue on the issues.

Sarah Plain does not connect to MOST Americans, she connects with the 23% of white trash, racist, gun totin, Bible thumpin, crreation science beleivin, speak in tongues, wack jobs that dot our small towns in those vast acres of rusted trailors and old dirty pickups with Confederate flags in the back window.
The rest of us can read and see her for the wackjob she is.

mccain is angry about obamas tax proposals—as mccain will have to give up some of the 5 million they made last year–and you think he cares about us working stiffs….mccain is worried about mccain—

the us government needs to come down on alaska for the wilfull slaughter of wolves—–something that infuriates the native people—-palin is a sick piece of work.

ever hear of the bridge to nowhere—talk about pork—-miss piggy is the queen of pork.

There are more murders in Illinois then there are killings in Iraq at this time. I think it is time for us to pull out of Illinois.

Peggy Noonan just jumped on the bandwagon of conservatives who think Palin is unfit. Matthew Dowd (Bush’s campaign strategist in 2004), George Will, David Frum, David Brooks, Peggy Noonan, etc, etc.
Intelligent conservatives think she’s a disaster.

The campaign would be better off letting her go untouched by her handlers. At least give her a shot at ripping Obama without the safety net.
http://www.political-buzz.com/

Rodney so you are saying we should pull out of Illinois also. American people are being murdered and the State is a crumb hole. There are more murders in Illinois then there are killings in Iraq at this time. I think it is time for us to pull out of Illinois.
Maybe Obama should of used that $3 million projector to show us how bad Illinois is and how he would change our country to the better.
Dems can’t blame republicans because the whole state of Ill. is ran by Dems. Far left liberals.
Obama State Senator of Ill.
Ill. Higest crime rate in country
Ill. Highest tax rate in country
Ill. Highest unemployment in country

I HAVE TO GO TO work
however you right wing extremests can put on youy sheets and pillowcases burn a few crosses and run around screeming till i come back–still dreaming of netting over 250 thousand a year so i can pay more taxes…ha ha ha h a what a bunch of losers.

MIguy – it has nothing to do with decency. She got pressured by the McCain campaign itself. You may notice that McCain, also, is dropping this tack. The robocalls are taking over. This way, McCain and Palin can be perceived as going “positive” and the RNC can do the dirty work.

Finally, someone realizes that Palin as the pitt bull is not a pleasing voice to any but the extreme right. She has re-energized the base, now she tones it down for the rest of the country… Still, first impressions are lasting ones. As she tones it down, I still look at her own house affairs which appear to be out of order. I look to her former gov’t experience in which she has been founded guilty of abusing power no matter how she wants to define that abuse. Then personally, I look at her interjection of her personal religious beliefs into her political comments and while that is attractive to many, to others, not so much. There is no doubt, the belief in Spirit elevates us to a higher moral character, however, past events have proven that the humility of religion is susceptible to and can become overly intoxicated with the power and corruption of political ambition. The two should never become bedfellows, but only the very best of friends.

I don’t want Obama spread my hard worked money to where he thinks it should go and a lot of it will go to 3rd world countrie. A lot will go to Kenya to help Obama and his presence there.

Palin has MESMERIZED everyone! It is all too obvious that some are afraid and confused, while others are ENAMOURED with her unique combination of personality and political talent and power. Yes, the type of fresh air and change the Gov. brings is the REAL CHANGE that Red, White and Blue America needs…not the kind of reform Obama advertises.

McCain has 1 new ad running that packs a punch but does no negative stuff. My wife commented that she liked it and that as soon as a negative ad came on she tuned out. It ran twice in a 2 hour period so it wasn’t obnoxious.
Obama and some senate democratic committee is running ads about every commercial break (spending all that money I suppose) but there is a point when sensory overload occurs and you simply tune them out.
And the phone calls…. we have just stopped answering any of them, turned the answering machine off and turned the ringer way down.

Peggy Noonan just jumped on the bandwagon of conservatives who think Palin is unfit. Matthew Dowd (Bush’s campaign strategist in 2004), George Will, David Frum, David Brooks, Peggy Noonan, etc, etc.
Intelligent conservatives think she’s a disaster.

Biden has a three leter word
supercalafragulisousxbaladocious.
what’s Joe’s postion on gay marraige today? Depends on whether he is on a straight or gay person’s talk show.

If Obama gets elected I hope everyone realizes you will have given him a clear path to socialism.Do you really want to give up your right to pursue happiness?Do you want Barney Frank, Chris Dodd and Nancy Pelosi running your lives???

Both Sen.Mecain and Governor Palin are hpocritically behaving in the campaign.
Monie, London

rodney soon would need no mo work. Zero will spread the wealth, taking from the rich idiots and giving ya poor less-educated lazybones. Zero promised you an empty $1000 free money to give you if you vote for him. You can sit on your butt, enjoying the fruit of the rich, thanks to Zero’s ideal of equal opportunity, or spreading wealth.

Now that ‘Joe the plummer’ is found to be economical with truth as regards to the nature of job he does, the level of taxation he pays(owing money to the govt.!)and also about his name, does not it look a bit embarassing and self-defeating for Republican party to parade the person in the campaign?
Nur

Why do i detest this woman? 6 years 6 colleges. She is obviously not smart. She is obviously inexperienced. She is not really having any presidential qualities. She is like the FARGO detective.Being a heart beat away from becoming president is not helping the matter either. It is scary to think of her commander in chief of the most powerful country.

Nur,
It not about joe the plumber it is about wealth redistibution something this country was not founded on.

braith,
Time and time again you allow the goverment in the door they continue to let themselves in more and more.

reddog… I think Your Rep. Pres. Bush has accomplished the most for the government letting themselves through the door. I am suspicious of the timing in all of this economic collapse, conveniently as he prepares to exit the White House.

Thank you Republicans for being civil in your disagreements, I have to go to Indy today. It’s been fun but I have to get myself ready. You guys have a great day.

McCain = Obama….Big banks vote yes to either!

Mccain = Obama, Big banks vote yes to wither!

Mybrainreallyhurts: Because they have the same leader….The Fed! It prints double standards for both candidate’s. They’re free! Bernake is laughing either way we go….it’s a win/win

There is a new strategy coming out of the McCain campaign in case you haven’t noticed….. ” Let’s paint Obama and his supporters as Communists. He’s a terrorist if you are concerned about America’s safety and a Communist if you are concerned about the economy. John McCain is being kept awake by meds and if he wins, won’t even make it to Inauguration Day….. as luck would have it….. Welcome Sarah Palin ” You betcha”

Did any reporters ask her if she still thinks that the Troopergate Report didn’t find her guilty of abusing her power?
Maybe by now she’s actually read the report….

McCain’s association with Liddy isn’t news. The Chicago Tribune covered it back in May, when the Clinton campaign was roadtesting the McCain campaign’s tactics. Let’s compare:
* Bill Ayers participated in bombing a statue, the New York Police headquarters, the U.S. Capitol, and the Pentagon. G. Gordon Liddy participated in a White house plot to subvert the Constitution.
* Ayers has never been convicted or served prison time. Liddy was convicted of conspiracy, burglary, and illegal wire-tapping, was senteced to 20 years, and served 5.5 until President Carter commuted his sentence.
* Ayers is now a professor of education. Liddy is a conservative talk radio host.
* Ayers has said “we didn’t do enough” to stop the Vietnam War, a statement interpreted by some to mean he thinks he should have set off more bombs in the early 1970s. In 1994, after the feds stormed the branch Davidian compound in Waco, Liddy said on his radio program, [sorry, rough language coming] “Now if the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms comes to disarm you and they are bearing arms, resist them with arms. Go for a head shot; they’re going to be wearing bulletproof vests. … Kill the sons of bitches.” (And as for Liddy on Hitler….)
* Ayers and his wife hosted a campaign event at his house for Obama in 1995. Liddy hosted a campaign event for McCain in 1998.
* Ayers donated $200 to Obama in 2001. Liddy has given at least $5,000 to McCain over the years, including $1,000 this year.
* Senator Obama has called Ayers’ terrorist acts “despicable” and condemned them. Senator McCain appeared on Liddy’s radio show last November and said, “I’m proud of you, I’m proud of your family…. It’s always a pleasure for me to come on your program, Gordon, and congratulations on your continued success and adherence to the principles and philosophies that keep our nation great.”
I’m not going to bother with quantifying the sins of Ayers and Liddy. And please note, I offer no defense of Ayers here. Go ahead, assume the worst of both men, and you can say, as does Chapman, that each man “back in the 1970s, extolled violence and committed crimes in the name of a radical ideology — and… has never shown remorse or admitted error.”
It’s simple: if you think Ayers is a voting issue, then you must think Liddy is a voting issue. Have fun voting for Barr or Nader.

What bunch of cry babies!! Sara Palin is as qualified as OBama any day of the week and if OBama becomes our President, within 1 year you will be wishing you had voted for McCain because your taxes are going to go up about 50% and your savings down! You won’t be able to save! There will be nothing left over after you pay for everyone who is not working so that the “wealth will be distributed equally.” God help us!!!!!!!

NEWSFLASH! NEWSFLASH! NEWSFLASH!
Barack Hussein Obama is a secret CAPITALIST who favors SMALL BUSINESSES.
Full text of exchange between Obama and Joe the Plumber:
—-
Sam “Joe” Wurzelbacher says it seems like Obama would be for a flat tax.
Obama replies:
“you know, I would be open to it except here’s the problem with a flat tax is that if you actually put a flat tax together, in order for it to work and replace all the rvenue that we’ve got, you’d probably end up having to make it like about a 40% sales tax. I mean that’s the value added, making it up. Now some people say 23 or 25, but in truth when you add up all the revenue that would need to be raised, you’d have to slap on a whole bunch of sales taxes on.
And I do believe for folks like me who have worked hard, but frankly also been lucky, I don’t mind paying just a little bit more than the waitress that I just met over there who’s things are slow and she can barely make the rent.
Because my attitude is that,,.
…IF THE ECONOMY’S GOOD FOR FOLKS FROM THE BOTTOM UP, IT’S GOOD FOR EVERYBODY.
If you’ve got a plumbing business
…YOU’RE GOONA BE BETTER OFF IF YOU’VE GOT A WHOLE BUNCH OF CUSTOMERS WHO CAN AFFORD TO HIRE YOU,
…and right now everybody’s so pinched that business is bad for everybody and I think ***when you spread the wealth around***, it’s good for everybody…”

If the press had spent 1/10th , ONE TENTH of the time trawling through Obama’s background, relationships (I refuse to call them associations, that’s Obama-talk for the dumbos out there, mainly the main-stream media and the idiots voting for him), and examined some or any part of his life that doesn’t quite fit, then I would say fair is fair. But the media the wonderful, left wing media that is now running this country…into the ground has not and will not scrunitize Obama the way they are done Palin and twisted everything and anything. That is why we are having to hear tidbits here and snippets there about his seedy background and I’ll bet the ranch (well my house before I have to foreclose on when Obama gets in) more stuff is going to come out about this imposter from Chicago. These people are only the b actors in the cast of characters this man has “associated” with world-wide. Where are the FBI and CIA, don’t they report the truth about his pasts?
Poor Katie Couric will be unemployed next year, the gotcha “journalist” and I use that term lightly is not wanted back at her old morning seat. No thank you! Her ratings are the talking point of CBS! Had she been smart, as smart as she thinks she is, she could have used the Palin interview like SNL or others will to get a ratings draw! But that’s the socialists for ya! Can’t see a good thing when they have it.

Cindy McCain can start thinking about helping some ordinary Americans who are struggling. Instead os spending $300,000 on one dress. John McCain is so out of touch with what ordinary Americans are feeling and struggling with everyday. Enough is enough!!!

She has dragged down whatever slim hopes McErratic had of winning a fair vote. Their only chance now is that Scalia, Thomas, and the rest of the Gang of Five will hand them the presidency like they did for Dubbya. We will see whether two Admirals can match a full house of Preppies in winning favor from the Supremes. BTW, when the repubs lose, do you think Palin will be on their top 25 for the nomination in 2012? She’s apparently #2 this year–how quickly the mediocre are forgotten!!

It has been said that “You can tell a lot about a man by who his friends are.”
So I think that Obama’s decisions to stay with Wright in spite of the hate-filled things he was preaching and to work with Ayers even to the point of launching his political career in the man’s house in spite of knowing that he was a murderous terrorist–I think that says a lot about what kind of man Obama is. You may call that a smear, but let’s face it, it’s also the simple truth. If a man’s friends are evil, what does that say about the man?
Besides that factor, I just plain don’t trust Obama; he strikes me as a political opportunist trying not to offend anyone in order to get their votes. That’s the only explanation I can see for why he voted “Present” all those times. Basically, I think he lacks the courage of his convictions.

Maybe Palin will play a lunatic brainless bimbo on SNL? Oh wait…

She’s a buffoon!

Kim you wrote:
“Keep speaking for America, Sarah.We need common sense in Washington instead of the rhetoric of a lawyer!”
No disrespect Kim but that’s a contradiction if ever I heard one!
Palin and common sense don’t belong in the same sentence!
Seriously Kim, Palin is not fit to be in the race,let alone anywhere near the White House.
American and the world needs someone that understands the issues, and Palin is certainly not that person by any stretch of the imagination!

The new Palin/McCAIN tactic. Pretend to be responsible, talk nice, save the vile, despicable acts to go through surrogates, mail and robo calls or when the press isn’t paying too much attention to you.

The leftwingers give a lot of hate, don’t they.

I don’t think I’ve seen a woman get inside of so many people’s heads since Dr. Ruth.

=========================
mmmm please tell me you’re single…
*barf*
ARE YOU SERIOUS? did you REALLY JUST SAID THAT????
some people are an embarrasment to humanity. period.

I’m so sick of listening to Hollywood and the Latte’ drinking groups say how inspiring Obama is……..Please, Bottom Line, they love him because he’s Black, this country has such a guilt trip about race that it’s blinding them…….I’m a Hispanic woman and I know about prejudice. It’s shameful how blacks were treated in the past but that’s not why Obama should be president.
I’m mad as Hell because I lost my country to someone with Obama’s philosophies and ideals, Cuba to be more specific, and when I hear Obama talk; he always tries to please everyone, he’s promising everything under the sun just to get elected, give me a break, then he’ll flip flop to do what’s politically expedient for him. You can argue that McCain has done some of the same, as all politicians do, but Obama has changed on many more positions and Obama claims he’s not a politician, he’s the agent of change………
Good Grief, My God, the only change this man wants is a Socialist America. Oh well, I’m 44 years old and I never thought I would see in this Great Country a repeat of Fidel Castro’s tactics, remember Castro started influencing the inexperienced Youth vote first , then Castro’s ideals spread like the plague to the rest of the population just like Obama is trying to do, I guess Bill Ayers, Rev. Wright and Castro really influenced Obama’s life in forming the man he is today and some Americans just don’t appreciate the life and freedoms we enjoy in this great country; American’s just don’t understand that ” the American way of life” can be taken away from them in a blink of an eye. God Bless America and protect her from men that think like Obama because if these people come to power and the Congress and Senate share in the same ideals, in my opinion, this country is over, Capitalism will be dead to the world and that would be the end of the Greatest Nation on the planet……………I just hope that America will wake up……God Bless America

I saw her in an scripted interview last night regarding Relgion – she might want to explain what she is doing practicing witchcraft in the you tube video. She acts like we are stupid everyone has seen this video. Are we ever going to get an answer on this. I am just curious – what was she doing there?
She really is out of touch with reality. I can understand how Alaska overlooks this, but the rest of the world is not that stupid.
Sarah Palin – John McCain’s new legacy
