Dede’s Revenge: ‘We’re Going to Work Against’ Palin and Others

Yay, Dede! Finally, a moderate Republican grows a spine. I hope she disavows Rush Limbaugh next, then kicks Glenn Beck in the pants.
On second thought, that might save the Republican Party. Never mind.

OK, this woman is not a “moderate.” She is a far leftist moonbat who was even more leftist than the Democrat, Owens. Dede friggin’ ENDORSED the Democrat, and she wants to call herself a Republican?
Who is she going to recruit to help stop Palin? Palin is already hated by the establishment GOP and the Left. Palin’s conservatives supporters are still going to behind her, so it’s not like Dede is changing anyone’s mind here. This woman is a bitter old prune who’s mad that conservatives are rightfully retaking back the GOP from leftists who want to blur the lines and and keep advancing socialism.

Corrected Post:
It’s a typical meme. Out of touch politician who still smells of smoke from the backroom filled with corrupt party insiders gets taken out by reformer and corruption fighter Sarah Palin. “Victim” joins the anti-Palin movement.
There will come a time when those who stand for integrity, principle and good governance will all be in one party and all those who don’t will be in the other party. You will be able to tell them by the “I hate Palin” buttons they’ll be wearing.

Sarah Palin stands for good government? Really? Where does resigning from your elected office because your job is too hard fall on the good government scale?

“Do these people even know who they are endorsing?”
Ironically, a lot of people would say that about YOU Ms. Scozzafava.
Well I guess as a recovering lifelong “moderate” Democrat, there seems to be lot of US who will work tirelessly against ‘them”, the radical leftists who take their cues from a divisive, ultra radical marxist President, and whom YOU Mrs. Scozzafava directly worked for in the last election. Now you stand there proud of your bald-faced betrayal and making threats????

Gary….Palin never resigned because the job was ‘to hard’, she resigned to ‘pursue’ other options.
While on the campaign trail she still conducted work for the state she was recieving pay from. Unlike Obama (that resigned from his State Senate position) that went on the campaign trail for 24 months, continued to draw a salary from his state, and was a ‘no show’ in his state’s responsibilities.
If you don’t like Palin then admit it, but don’t lie about her.

When you’re sworn in for a four year term, you don’t have “other options”. You have a trust with your constituents to complete your term, you don’t quit halfway through because it’s too hard, or you realize you could be getting rich instead of solving the problems of your state.
If you think those are admirable qualities for a politician then by all means slap a Palin 2012 sticker on your bumper.

Palin resigned because she and her staff had spent every waking moment fighting ludacris ethics complaints. Also, there were numerous others lined up by liberal groups determined to destory her. They were never going to end.
She felt that it was a terrible use of the taxpayer’s dollars to continue, so she stepped down. Imagine, a politician who actually says they are acting in the people’s best interest…and they really are! This woman became gov and fired the private chef and sold the private jet, she is NOT your typical politician.
Meanwhile, barry in chicago was making back alley deals with tony rezko to secure a 2 million dollar mansion for himself (rezko, obama’s former senate campaign organizer is now a convicted felon). BO is truly ‘change we can believe in’. America needs to wake up.

What? John Clavis, methinks YOU are the empty head. Regan had more intelligence than your entire party contains!
Take your flame bait and try spreading it over someone that might believe it.
It’s really an interesting ploy that you have there. Take all the adjectives that apply to you and your ilk and try to make them stick on the opposition. Sounds a lot like Alinsky to me.
Keep spinning. It’s the only thing that will keep you warm next November.

“a terrible use of the taxpayer’s dollars”
The taxpayers didn’t save anything when she resigned, since the lawyers and staff who were defending her are all still Alaska state employees.

Gary
Did you actually watch the VP debate? All of the pundits on the liberal networks said it was a tie (which means Palin won). Palin was a 2 year gov and biden was a 35 year sitting senator. Pretty impressive if you ask me. Especially considering 70 MILLION people were watching expecting her to fail, and the next day it was revealed that biden had said 14 inaccurate things.
As for the couric interview when Palin stumbled when asked what she read, the media took that and ran with it.
But somehow the week earlier, when couric interviewed biden, the media forgot to cover it.
He was not only unaware of who was president when the 1929 stock market crashed, he was under the dilusional impression that “Roosevelt went on television to calm everyone down”. Riiiight.
Gary, you are just another casualy of the media’s willful agenda to crucify Palin and cover for obama.
Do you remember when barry said he had “been to all 57 states”? Of course you don’t, because the media ignored it.
Imagine if the hick from alaska had said that.

hey DeDe, check it out. As a conservative I can tell you ” bring it on”. You are a disgrace to the “Republican” party. You may as well just declare yourself a liberal democrat and get it over with because your no different than one of them. You are no more a threat to the conservative movement than any other liberal democrat with your socialistic ideals so get over yourself. You lost the backing of the Repubs because your a traitor to your parties beliefs. Now please, just go away quietly, your embarassing yourself even more. Stop being so vindictive you triffling liberal traitor.

“Did you actually watch the VP debate?”
I did. I especially liked the part where she winked at me.
C’mon Dave, if the media failed to cover Biden’s gaffes how did you manage to hear about them? Are you accessing some super secret news source unknown to the rest of America?

Gary
No, I am not accessing any super secret news sources, I just read up on my own other then the big headlines the following day.
For instance, MSNBC/CNN were obsessed with Palin’s winks, FOX was obsessed with Joe the Biden’s inaccurate statements. All 3 news organizations are very biased.
I just researched who was truthful and who wasn’t. That was a BIIIGGG win for Palin in the truth department. But people like you could not get past the winks, which is why we have a socialist who HATES America in power right now.

If the conservative “majority” in this country all adore and love Sarah Palin so much that she will inevitably sweep to victory, why did McCain lose the last election by a fairly clear margin?
Do you honestly think Barack Obama has some kind of Time Lord brain control ray? While he did benefit from heavy turnout from the black community, it isn’t like that was the decisive factor.
I think it is instead that a lot of people find Sarah Palin disturbing and don’t want her as a leader, and don’t agree with her articulated positions, but did agree with Obama’s. If you nominate her in 2012, expect to lose.

I am so sick of people ripping on Sarah Pallin & usually INCORRECTLY.
Get the facts straight or shut up.
She is the best thing for the Conservative Republican party since Ronald Reagan. She is smart, attractive and has a huge following-sorry Dems, you don’t have anyone except a lot of followers of a President, who is out to destroy our country. Wake up America…..

So, when she was a Repub. who would have voted against health care reform, she was alright. Now that the Armey/Palinites are forming a third political party, she is dog meat.
It’s illogical to call a convert bad things when someone lowered the boom on them from inside their own party. You should oprn your eyes to the truth. Repubs have a big problem. The fringers and extremists are forming their own party. none of them would have voted Democrat. Aol would have voted Repub. So a weak base loses it’s core and a smaller lesser party gets self satisfaction. I say, oh, good. 2010 can not get here to soon.

hey dede…..you couldn’t even carry Palins high heel shoes…………you pathetic excuse of a woman………..

I love it how all these Palin lovers gloss over her humongous political deficiencies.wink wink.

Who are you going to believe–Palin or the people who actually live in Alaska? Palin’s popularity had dropped to 20%; the Lt. Governor was doing her job from the time that she first got McCain’s attention because she was so busy promoting herself; a poll was taken in Alaska and it was found that 80% of the voters felt she was corrupt and dishonest; Palin had so many ethics complaints because she was unethical–cheated on her taxes; lied about what she stood for and how she voted; took bribes and gifts; used Government money to build her house on the lake; fired anyone who disagreed with her. Some of you posters just refuse to check facts and just believe her lies. Palin quit because she was so unpopular in Alaska; did not want to do the job she promised to do; and she saw the chance to make more money. Thank heavens there are honest people who are not motivated by the almighty dollar.

So blaming Clinton for Bush’s problems is OK, but it’s not OK to blame Obama’s problems on Bush, gotcha.
“Obama voted against Mccain’s bill to regulate Freedie and Fannie in 05/06″
This never happened. The bill died in committee (a committee that Obama was not a member of) and was never voted on by the entire Senate. Maybe you should be asking the Republicans, who had the Senate majority in 2005/06, why it was killed.

Nothing brings out the left wingnuts like the mention of Sarah Palin. And to think, she’s going to be on the national stage for at least a decade. I’m loving it.

Gry,
I stand corrected. You are right. It did not make t out of committee. However, the Democrats were 100% dead set against it.
This from Bloomberg,for the whole story. Below is an excerpt.
Back in 2005, Fannie and Freddie were, after years of dominating Washington, on the ropes. They were enmeshed in accounting scandals that led to turnover at the top. At one telling moment in late 2004, captured in an article by my American Enterprise Institute colleague Peter Wallison, the Securities and Exchange Comiission’s chief accountant told disgraced Fannie Mae chief Franklin Raines that Fannie’s position on the relevant accounting issue was not even “on the page” of allowable interpretations.
Then legislative momentum emerged for an attempt to create a “world-class regulator” that would oversee the pair more like banks, imposing strict requirements on their ability to take excessive risks. Politicians who previously had associated themselves proudly with the two accounting miscreants were less eager to be associated with them. The time was ripe.
Greenspan’s Warning
The clear gravity of the situation pushed the legislation forward. Some might say the current mess couldn’t be foreseen, yet in 2005 Alan Greenspan told Congress how urgent it was for it to act in the clearest possible terms: If Fannie and Freddie “continue to grow, continue to have the low capital that they have, continue to engage in the dynamic hedging of their portfolios, which they need to do for interest rate risk aversion, they potentially create ever-growing potential systemic risk down the road,” he said. “We are placing the total financial system of the future at a substantial risk.”
What happened next was extraordinary. For the first time in history, a serious Fannie and Freddie reform bill was passed by the Senate Banking Committee. The bill gave a regulator power to crack down, and would have required the companies to eliminate their investments in risky assets.
Different World
If that bill had become law, then the world today would be different. In 2005, 2006 and 2007, a blizzard of terrible mortgage paper fluttered out of the Fannie and Freddie clouds, burying many of our oldest and most venerable institutions. Without their checkbooks keeping the market liquid and buying up excess supply, the market would likely have not existed.
But the bill didn’t become law, for a simple reason: Democrats opposed it on a party-line vote in the committee, signaling that this would be a partisan issue. Republicans, tied in knots by the tight Democratic opposition, couldn’t even get the Senate to vote on the matter.
That such a reckless political stand could have been taken by the Democrats was obscene even then. Wallison wrote at the time: “It is a classic case of socializing the risk while privatizing the profit. The Democrats and the few Republicans who oppose portfolio limitations could not possibly do so if their constituents understood what they were doing.”

Gary, before you put negative comments against Gov.Palin, please read the actual facts, it is just showing that your knowledge about political and social issues are outdated. I have been years living in Alaska, and when Sarah Palin became governor, she was able to got rid of corruption within her party. Perhaps, you are among those corrupt alaskans who were out of job and that is why you hate Palin. Palin resigned from work because of Libs senseless attacks in tring to discredit Palin. Tell you what, those extreme libs and corrupt GOP represent the minority of the american population and yet, it seems that they have the loudest mouth and have more rights and privileges. I wish God himself will personally take over the governance of the United States and the world so that all evils and corrupted people will be exterminated by natural death,and then there will be true peace and tranquility on earth.

poor little “RINO” !! Its time to rid Republican party of all the “RINO’S” – Republican In Name Only

I am truly proud to be living in this country..I have been in some other countries helping people. They all wanted to know what America was like. They felt we were the riches people ever and would just about done anything
to come here..I have a respect for Obama, but that does not say I agree with every thing he does..Mrs Palin is smarter than people want to admit. Those people that stand for the people of this wonderful nation scare those who want to play the power game..I voted for once and will again…..

Hey Dede, get over it.
Look at Palin – beautiful, successful, accomplished, great family life, etc.
And what do you have to show for?

This woman is not a moderate, and never has been. She’s a liberal, straight up. She was so far to the left that the Daily Kos endorsed her. A vote for her is like replacing George Washington with Benedict Arnold. Once in power, she’ll betray her own party, every time. She’ll make Arlen Specter look conservative in contrast.

DeDe may want to consider herself a “Moderate” Republican; but her actions are way left of “Moderate”! Maybe she should go the way of Arlen Spector!! Granted, I think the Republican Party needs to get more centered than Right. The downfall of the Republican Party has been the FAR Right Wing of the Party dictating what is “right” and the Moderates and some of the “little left of moderate” folks not speaking up and making a case for more middle of the road thinking. The core of the Republican Party is independence FROM government! Less taxes,pride in ownership of American goods and services,the ability to make our own decisions without Big Government “guiding” us along the way. Let the businessman make and keep his money so that he can hire your neighbor that has no job, so that you will not have to pay higher taxes to support your unemployed neighbor through Medicaid and welfare! I could go on…

This woman is not a Republican any more that the Democrat she backed in this race! I hope she does try to take on Sarah because she will lose big time against such a popular person as Sarah.
