“He had me until he picked the dummy”

They shouldn’t talk about Biden like that!

who know subconsciously that BO is an abomination and have directed this reality onto Palin–pretty neat isn’t it? Talk about projection

What really astounds me is how the Obots, who would totally ignore The Messiah’s lack of experience, immediately went after Palin on precisely this issue, even though she was not running for the top job, as he was. And they would do this, and still are doing it, in all seriousness. Projection? Yes, something like that. Very strange.

In just about 2 years of Barky—they’ll all be begging for Palin to run. Personally, I’ve never voted in a GOP primary, but if she runs in 2012 I most certainly will register as a Republican and vote for her!

“I will forever ban Katie Couric from my house.”

I agree. For the rest of my days whenever I hear the term “pig with lipstick,” the names Katie Couric and Andrea Mitchell will immediately come to mind. Before this, I was under the impression that they had some class. Then, I watched as Andrea Mitchell, dressed in a black leather jacket that looked just like “butta,” reported on the Sara Palin wardrobe “scandal” and wondered what importance this story could possibly have in the grand scheme of things. I am grateful to them, however, for demonstrating to me just how irrelevant they are as journalists. I’m beginning to find that there really are many other things I could be doing on my Sunday mornings.

And your IQ is in the low double digits I presume???

Oh, my, and Obama is what? A well-rounded, narcissist whose sole claim to fame is running for politics as a horse of a different color?

You know Jake, it’s probably Sarah’s raging hormones that put you off. You know what puts me off?–your raging sexist dismissal of a woman who could probably take you with her frontal lobe tied behind her back!

Yes, bot. You’re smarter than we are and you’re a really, really nice person for voting for a black man.
So keep patting yourself on the back for voting for an unqualified man who stole an election through fraud and dishonored Martin Luther King.

Unlike Barack Obama,

Palin worked her way through school.
Became a business owner and provided jobs in her community.
Became a city council member–improved the town.
Became the mayor and made the town appealing to business and expanded it.
Became the head of the oil council and routed out corruption.
Became the governor:
~orchestrated the oil pipeline deal that had lagged for 30 years
~balanced the state budget
~cut the travel costs for the state
~was recognized by film makers from over seas as a remarkable woman (when you didn’t even know her name)
~deployed soldiers to war
~deployed soldiers to help in time on natural disaster
~established the office of environment in Alaska (global warming office)
~established transparancy in Alaska government (put the state budget on line)
~called the state senator Steven to account before he was convicted

oh yeah she is the mother of 5.

Barack Obama has done nothing to compare except you were suckered into the belief that he was a talented man. Show me proof. He lied to win this and every other election. He can’t vote present anymore.

Just remember: Joe Biden warned you.
in less than 24 hours of the election
Gaza is in flames and Russia is moving troops to threaten Poland. But yeah Obama is “the one”

Jake, I’m guessing that if most of the media outlets decided to make you look like a f*cking moron, it wouldn’t be hard to do–in fact–they’d probably have you believing it as well. I’m convinced already.

Jake: Thank you for stating the obvious. (The language could perhaps be toned down a bit.) It’s amazing to me that there are still a number of people who have insulated themselves from reality and insist on pretending that Palin was even marginally qualified to be a heartbeat away from the highest office in the world, or that any equivalency of abilities exists between her and Sen. Clinton. It’s sad that hatred and reverse sexism have blinded them to what is a simple truth to anyone with eyes to see: Sarah Palin is not ready for prime time.

Fuck off asshole!

This election proves american are not racists, they are just stupid.

Yep. Just plain stupid.

That’s why I like to watch the market so much, people stop drinking kool-aid when it comes to real money. The market doesn’t take BO’s bullshit.

Asian markets advanced, European markets advanced, but US market is in the red.

I wonder at what point in the next 4 years Fey and the other deluded women who torched Palin will regret their actions. I am a hard core liberal so I could never understand how Christians shucked their principles and backed Bush until the bitter end. Now, I see the same crap from our side and I still don’t get it. At what juncture did the people of this country actively start to ignore the cold hard facts of reality while embracing impossible and fictitious narratives? American’s don’t even try to pretend that they think for themselves anymore. They just do as they are told. Nevermind that some of these narratives, like the evil imperialist narrative, may be products of our enemies (Russia anyone?) attempting to undermine and destroy our country and its strength. Where does the money and the ideas come from? Critical thinking skills even among the highly educated appears to be dubious at best.

Tina Fey lampooned Palin with her own words from the Couric interview – so they have a point.

Palin gets a gold star for knowing that there are exactly fifty states in the union. Now, I recall someone who has been covered extensively in the news who flunked that question and answered that there are fifty seven states, but the MSM didn’t bother to rehash that factad infinitum.

Palin is ok when she’s talking about things she knows about – her misfortune is that she knew next to nothing about national issues and foreign policy, and her aides have admitted as much, saying there wasn’t enough time to bring her up to speed before facing the media. There’s no disconnect here – she’s fine on Alaskan stuff, horrible when out of her depth.

The sexism is just dripping — and it is sexism from other women.

Palin is NOT dumb — she’s beautiful, but NOT dumb.

(*sarcasm*)

Oh, didn’t you get the memo?

Women can’t be both beautiful AND intelligent.

She can only can have ONE of those characteristics. She can’t possibly have both.

So if you’re a hideous or average-looking woman, you MUST have brains.

And if you’re an attractive or exceptionally attractive woman, you can ONLY be a model or actress or prostitute. You know, a profession that doesn’t require as many brains.

It’s the f***ing stupid Californians who have invaded Washington who voted for the REAL dummy/moron pair — Obiden.

Sure Cali is loaded with whack jobs (self excluded of course ), but what about New York and the rest of the Northeasterners who voted for O-Full-of-Himself in droves. If you’re going to point fingers at the map, better go to coast to coast. And don’t forget Hawaii, they love Obama out there. The jasmine and plumeria have dulled their senses.

Agreed.

Looking back, that was a turning point in the race. After the Couric interviews, and SNL skit, were replayed over and over, I think she was caricatured and it was really hard to change that image of her. I remember watching the VP debate with my sisters. They loved everything Biden said and hated everything Palin said. And I was so dissappointed by it. Anyway, that debate had HUGE ratings, so I thought Mccain would a bump out of it, but I realized that it was too late. People had already made up their minds about her because of the Couric/SNL stuff, and she really couldn’t do anything about it.

I would like to point out that anybody’s exact words can be taken verbatim & used to attack them. Thats what happens when people talk. Shoot! Even God doesn’t get away without having his own words used against him! However, what we also happen to NOT see on the part of the media is the same fascination with Joe Biden’s Titanic blunders. I just don’t understand how any one can claim both intellectual honesty in this case AND that there is not a double standard here.

AS I remember, Palin said you can see Russia from part of Alaska which was twisted into “I can see Russia from my house”. CNN sent a camera crew up and damned if you couldn’t see Russia really quite close up across a narrow strait. On our side was a village. On the other side used to be a Russian village with relatives of the U.S, village until the Military took over their town and made it a Russian base. So now you’re not only looking at Russia but just beyond what you can see is a Russian Military base.
Of course, because the press came up to do a “gotcha” on Palin, they concentrated on the fact that no Alaska governors had ever been to the village. Which meant absolutely nothing.

There are three levels of deception here.

1.) CBS sliced and diced the televised interview. No one read the full transcripts. No where does she say that being able to see Russia from Alaska constitutes foreign policy experience.

2.) Tin Fey introduced the line “you can see Russia from my house.” Governor Plain never said this.

3.) The media took what Fey said and the input for another round of distortions and reported on that as if Governor Palin had indeed said that verbatim.

This was added to litany of lies about charging for rape kits and baning books.

No one in the McCain camp could formulate a coherent response to get the truth out. Whoever negotiated the terms of the CBS and ABC interviews should be drawn and quartered.

SO TRUE

The dupes don’t even know they were sold a president the same way that they are sold a bar of soap.

“The real story of this election is how very well marketing works on the American public.”

That and how many actual morons comprise the American public.

At a funeral today, my cousin, a nun, called Palin “a floozie”.

You should have asked your cousin the nun if the Blessed Mother would be proud of her disrespecting a mother of five children who chose not to abort her Downs’ Syndrome child.

For anyone afraid that Palin (or conservatives) could overturn Roe v. Wade, here’s your proof you don’t have to worry.

If Catholic RELIGIOUS don’t even “get” the pro-life message, then nobody does. Catholics as a bloc routinely vote with the pro-choice presidential candidate, so there it is.

That’s what I thought too!!!

Color you dumb

What are you talking about. Governor Palin was crawling around inside Acorn Obama’s tiny skull. Acorn Obama was freaking out about what a threat Governor Palin was to his chances. He got nasty with the Lipstick on a Pig comment.

Obama focused all his attention for three weeks on Governor Palin instead of McCain. Acorn Obama forgot who he was running against. Acorn Obama got way off message. Governor Palin was messing with his mind. Acorn Obama hates women and Governor Palin is everything he is not.

Ayers Obama is a man who has no legislative accomplishments and yet has written two memoirs.

Acorn Obama thinks more air in our tires is the same as drilling.

Odinga Obama thinks they speak arabic in Afghanistan.

A family member said she hated that Palin shoots wolves from an airplane. Is this even true?

Yes it’s true but it is done in many western states to control the population so other wildlife will not be endangered. It’s a method of population control..Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Oregon, Utah and Washington have the same practices. Sarah is the only Gov doing it prolly to save dollars. Usually the Forestry does it from helicopters. Sometimes they try to relocate the animal but if the population is too large and endangering other wildlife to extinction they will shoot them from the air.
Easterners do not have this issue. They are about extinct in the east.

Well done! Can’t wait for Greta’s interview tonight with Gov. Palin. I hope Palin continues to speak out. The U.S. became a wasteland for dissident voices during this election, thanks to our “press.” Palin makes Romney, Huckabee and the other Republican pillars look like they’re made of chalk. Only Palin has the capacity to expand the boundaries of what has passed for feminism this past year. As a lifelong Dem who voted for Mac and Sarah this year, I will be watching and listening to Palin in the years to come. I hope she takes every opportunity to add to her already impressive resume.

DID YOU KNOW?

Question: What is America’s first line of missile interceptor defense that protects the entire United States?
Answer: 49th Missile Defense Battalion of Alaska National Guard.

Question: What is the ONLY National Guard unit on permanent active duty?
Answer: 49th Missile Defense Battalion of Alaska National Guard

Question: Who is the Commander in Chief of the 49th Missile Defense Battalion of Alaska National Guard?
Answer: Governor Sarah Palin, Alaska

Question: What U.S. governor is routinely briefed on highly classified military issues, homeland security, and counter terrorism?
Answer: Governor Sarah Palin, Alaska

Question: What U.S. governor has a higher classified security rating than either Hillary or Barack of the Democrat Party?
Answer: Governor Sarah Palin, Alaska

According to the Washington Post, she first met with McCain in February, but nobody ever found out. This is a woman used to keeping secrets. She can be entrusted with our national security, because she already is.

NOW YOU DO!

I suspect your grandmother is on the spin cycle over this election cycle.

It’s not the IQ you have. It’s what you do with it.

This year many people with high IQ’s voted like lemmings with no real thought for the results.

He seems quite gifted at building organization, for example.

You mean like Hilter and Al Capone.

But Al Capone did it on his own. He wasn’t a product of africative action.

As far as gifted he was given the presidency. That is a big gift.

“required prerequisite”

That’s funny!

Dave G has objective scientific evidence indicating that Idaho graduates have IQs in the 95-112 range.

He has further evidence that transfer students have IQs 10-20% below other students at the same institution.

Scientific studies show that the president must have an IQ of at least 130 (and a penis) or the nation suffers.

He will be sharing these objective scientific facts with the NY Times and Washington Post. Look for full coverage on the front page, most likely above the fold.

Not true as you well know.

Where are we at as a nation when rather than congratulating a fellow citizen for their success, we fault them on these levels. According to the American dream, we would reward them, wouldn’t we? This woman comes from ordinary beginnings, believes in herself & what her family taught her, happens to “earn” (& i say that for emphasis) a loving family, a family business, political offices starting from the bottom up. Isn’t this quite similar to what every American wants to have the option to do, whether they actually choose to go that direction or not? That kind of freedom? You don’t have to agree with her on every political point, who have we ever? But what i see here is an American citizen who will respect you & your loved ones in her decision making processes because she knows & demonstrates her understanding of those values.

When here in America did we start becoming lesser citizens simply because we respected character qualities of a leader as well as educational capacity? Look, i don’t think i’m presenting anything unfamiliar here, it is what i hope every visitor here was able to grow up with. Butt in this case there is that “bamm!!!” hammer on the head, “learn to respect your proper place, woman!”

i think the VP candidacy of Governor Palin has brought out something that is going to be an ongoing discussion in America. Women in politics will have to be treated with appropriate respect, regardless of party or affiliation. I think that now since the Republicans have also felt this amazing, brazen sexism, public perception will be permanently shifted in favor of equal treatment. It may take a little longer to soak into the opposition, but it is certainly coming. Step out of the way, or get run over by the train!

Unfortunately, I just heard on the radio that Gallup says Obama’s favorability is at 68%!!! Which I think it impossible! But then the announcer went on to say it was the highest ever for a president post-election.

More propaganda, I think…

The issue for me? Calling someone “dumb” means that they are inherently flawed.

I think it’s nonsense. She didn’t get to be governor by being stupid.

Bush didn’t get to be president by being stupid.

Obama didn’t get to be president by being stupid.

Now, that’s quite different from whether I agree with them ideologically.

It’s a red-herring argument, in short.

Bull. Palin has done a lot in Alaska, including cleaning up corruption up there in the wilderness. Obama voted present in the Senate, neglected areas of need in Chicago, participated in a criminal enterprise (ACORN), and did nothing academically but skate through on affirmative action. And yet he pretends like he’s the second coming of Abe Lincoln. Palin has never pretended to be anything but what she is, a great governor and a staunch conservative.

It all boils down to McCain being 72 years old and a cancer survivor. Nobody expected Quayle to have to take office.
