Hume: Palin Doesn't Need to be a Governor to Run for National Office
Brit Hume gives his thoughts on what Sarah Palin might do in the future:
And Dan Balz has an article in the Washington Post titled: "With Act II Unwritten, Palin Can Define Her Role."

As an Obama supporter, I agree wholeheartedly with what Hume said. I don't think she needs the public office platform to run for Pesident. In order to be taken seriously, she has to study up on civics and foreign policy. The job of the Vice President and the Department of Law are simple, forgiveable gaffes, but in her case they contribute more to the personna of her not being a serious candidate because she doesn't have the educational or professional pedigree that say Obama or Biden have in both being Constitutional Lawyers. It is especially enhanced in Obama's case because of the Columbia undergraduate and Harvard Law degrees. They are widely considered to be two of the best institutes of higher education in the world. What most Americans know about Sarah Palin is that she went to 5 colleges before she graduated from the University of Idaho (a fine school) with a degree in jounalism. Yet, she seems to have some disdain or a lack of understanding of how the media works.
To a lesser degree, foreign policy is something she needs to study as well. She apparently just got a passport last year. I am entering my first year of law school, and I know more about foreign policy than Sraah Palin does by the sheer fact that I have done some extensive travelling worldwide and interacted with the people of different lands. Has she been to China, Africa, the Middle East?
That Martha is beautiful. God bless Sarah, despite all the detractors and those that insist (NRO and Hotair) she has to have a title to matter.
While I disagree with Palin's beliefs, she is good for our government. In a two party republic, it's never good to have one party dominate the landscape (See Bush's first 6 years in office.) Bush's most successful years legislation and policy wise will be his last two with a Democratic House and Senate. We need checks and balances.
Even Brit repeats the bogus chant "Sarah has to bone-up on issues." You mean she has to study to become as smart as Obama?
Media says:
Rockstar Celebrity Governor Needs to Bone Up On How To Govern
Meanwhile
Media won't say:
TOTUS Steps In Own Poll Droppings Due To Governing From Throne/Rubs America's Nose In It
Kwaisi - gird your loins for numerous point-by-point fiskings of your post.
Kwaisi fiskers - take a breath and mind your manners. Remember, we are "national" now...all of us, not just Sarah.
Just so you know, Alaska does have a Dept. of Law, and just traveling around the world & interacting with the people does not necessarily give you an education on the politics of dealing with leaders of different nations.
Also, why don't you tell us what the job of VP is.
I won't even go into the gaffes of Biden, and BO who has no problem planting his lips firmly on the leaders of foreign nations asses & apologizing for America while those same leaders laugh outright to his face. Not to mention his insults to doctors, police, and the military of this Great Nation, just to name a few.
kwaisi, yeah your right lol, the market tanked and oil went to 148 as soon as dems took over congress and worked with bush! You call that a success lol? Of course, I knew that would happen and shorted everything I could and made tons of money off the obots stupidity.
@Kwaisi
I do appreciate you coming here and being civil, that is all I ask. But I do have some questions. I don't know if it is sexism or what, but how come Sarah needs this massive amount of experience in order to run for President. I do understand that she does need to bolster some of her foreign policy experience, even though she has been to Kuwait and she just recently went to Kosovo to visit the troops, so she has been to foreign countries before, but it was for Alaska state business, not just because she felt like going.
When Barack Obama became senator, what experience did he have, nothing, he hardly did anything in the senate, besides running for President, yet he is supposedly experienced enough to be President. How come he gets one standard and Sarah gets another. Obama hadn't visited a foreign country til he started campaigning, but because he is a man he is somehow exempt to the rule about "experience." It should be equal, does Sarah need more experience, sure, of course, the more experience the better. And as far as her not having a passport til recently, she never needed one. She was Governor of a state, she had no reason to ever leave that state. I have a passport which I have not used since I was 14 years old when I went on a trip to Israel, that was the only reason why I got it. Now she is free to travel the country, I heard months ago other countries wanted her to come and speak, but of course she could not since the anklebiters would file ethics complaints against her for leaving her house.
Remember this, Hillary Clinton, other then being First Lady and being Senator from New York(Where, I have talked to people who live in NY and were never happy with the job she did over there) she ran for President and could have won. She came THAT close.
Any ways, thanks for coming here and being objective. That is all I ask, a nice discussion about the issues.
The media treated her like crap since Day 1, even worse then Hillary Clinton, why you ask, simple, because she was Obama's biggest threat, she still is. Look at the media now, they have sold their souls to Obama, they don't even fake it anymore. They just come out blatantly and say it. The media have said horrible things about her and her wonderful family. They would NEVER say a bad thing about Obama, why, because they are all in the tank for him. No one deserves the kind of hell that Sarah went through. Notice they don't go after Huckabee or Jindal or Romney, they go after Sarah Palin, because she is a Conservative, who is pro-life and refused to have an abortion, and that she speaks to middle America, something the media will NEVER understand
"she seems to have some disdain or a lack of understanding of how the media works"
Disdain at media articles saying she's a young-earth creationist who doesn't believe in evolution, that she charged rape victims for rape kits, that she never reads anything, that she's not Trig's mother, that she refused to teach her daughters about contraception, that she is against contraception in all cases, that she bought $150,000 of clothes during the campaign, that she lied when she said Obama was friends with terrorists, that she abandoned her children to run for VP, that her choice to fly home to Alaska for Trig's birth was what caused his Down Syndrome, that she has a venereal disease that caused Trig's Down Syndrome, that she once had an affair, that she was found guilty of violating the alaskan ethics law, that she shoots wolves from helicopters, that she wants to put women in jail for having abortions, or that she could see Russia from her house? That disdain?
In case you didn't know, ALL OF THE ABOVE ARE LIES. I share Palin's puzzlement that media types can just print complete crap and no one cares, and then turn around and say she brought it all on herself.
Jesus, even with his law degree, Biden got his ass handed to him in the debate last year with Palin.
Or did you miss the part where "Hezboallah was forced out of Lebanon". That howler came from Biden, not Palin.
That's okay, though Kwaisi, Obama has reached his high watermark. It's all downhill from here.
As he gets weaker, Sarah gets stronger.
Kwaisi,
Respectfully, let me be among the first to fisk.
As a public servant, Sarah Palin almost singlehandedly drove the Alaska gas pipeline deal, a 26 billion dollar "stimulus project" that will be paid for with private sector funds, bringing neccessary supplies of clean energy from within the borders of the United States and Canada, which are - for the moment - secure. She negotiated part of that deal with the Canadian government and a large Canadian company, Trans Canada. Please enlighten us with an example of similar accomplishment by Obama or any other worldly, sophisticated and well-traveled Citizen-Of-The-World.
Kwaisi,
I guess you don't think much of Kosovo, eh?
http://www.conservatives4palin.com/2009/06/video-palin-addressing-troops-in-kosovo.html
OMG! She's interacting with the people of different lands!
"Met w/ Lithuanian Minister of Defense, Rasa Jukneviciene. She's a conservative in Parliament here for Change of Command & peacekeeping exercz"
"Now in Faik Konica school, our troops helping local students learn English along w/Pristina interpreters. Enthused kids thankful for U.S."
"Walked Kosovo streets w/ KFOR troops, folks chatted about their interest in U.S. & they knew a lot about Alaska! Taught them Yupik greetings."
I know Sarah has been to Kosovo and Germany recently. I am not sure when she got her passport. I also know she visited the troops before she got the nomination. However, I do not know where or when that was. Can someone help answer these questions? I would just like to know for my own benefit.
Kwaisi. you epitomize what is wrong with the political system today.
To suggest as you do that a graduate of Harvard is better qualified, smarter, or better versed in foreign policy is absolute nonsense.
You have destroyed your own argument by holding up the person who now occupies the chair in the Oval office as an example of the best of higher education.
I dont know what college Joe Biden went to, but i will throw him in for free.
Heres an assignment for you.
Look up the meaning of "oxymoron"
Heres a hint.
Obama and intelligence in the same sentence.
if she campaigns for the nomination in 2012, she will push all the R's to the right and they will all become unelectable!
Media doesn't work, that's why so many people voted for Obama and believe the caricature of Governor Palin.
Sarah has also been to Kuwait.
Wow I have been to Antartica, Mid East, India, South AMerica, Europe (Several Countries), Pacific Islands. Using Kwaisi's Standards I should be appointed President Immediately have the Constitution changed and be awarded a lifetime appointment as President. Especially with ANtartica on my Resume.
PEC/Palin 2012! :)
kwaisi - The last non-ivy league President we had left office and the Fed Debt was 2 trillion dollars. The Ivy Leaguers have run it up to 11 Trill.
The failed banks and automobile companies were a who's who of Ivy League schools.
Bush was slow to get on board with the operational changes in Iraq. Set us back a few years.
My father who if he would have decided on going into politics would have been better than any President in my lifetime. Wise beyond belief. If I would have followed only his advice in my life I would never have made a mistake. My father only has a HS Degree. Trust me he would solve this contries financial mess in one term. Master at separating the Wants from the needs.
Don't talk to me about elitism. It has run this country the last few decades and we all have suffered.
Kwaisi, July 27, 2009 2:54 PM
The job of the Vice President and the Department of Law are simple, forgiveable gaffes, but in her case they contribute more to the personna of her not being a serious candidate because she doesn't have the educational or professional pedigree that say Obama or Biden have in both being Constitutional Lawyers.
First of all, she got closer to the correct definition of the VP role than Biden did. And he is/was a professor of Constitutional Law. The Dept of Law issue was already explained to you. She never said the Fed.Govt. has a Dept of Law. She made an analogy comparing the Fed system to Alaska's Dept of Law (which exists).
It is especially enhanced in Obama's case because of the Columbia undergraduate and Harvard Law degrees. They are widely considered to be two of the best institutes of higher education in the world.
For someone who studied Constitutional law, what does it say that he welcomes and advocates policies that are clearly unconstitutional? Creating any style of 'public plan' health insurance is unconstitutional without the States granting the Feds that power. The GM thing is clearly out of bounds as well. So much for Constitutional Law.
What most Americans know about Sarah Palin is that she went to 5 colleges before she graduated from the University of Idaho (a fine school) with a degree in jounalism.
Yet, she seems to have some disdain or a lack of understanding of how the media works.
Oh she understands how it works, all right. First hand knowledge. If you are a conservative woman, you're not worth a spit and can be demonized at will.
Kwaisi,
Before you take ConLaw at whatever law school you're entering, please read Professor Zywicki's take on who was right about the role of the VP during the Palin-Biden debate.
Your days of backpacking through Asia are over. It's time to start boning up on these things if you want to play this game.
http://tiny.cc/mtY1H
Shocking that Harvardites would deign to associate with a lowly Penn graduate like Kwaisi at all. Or was it Cornell? I forget. They're both terrifically second-rate schools, even if they are Ivies.
I've been a Sarah Palin fan since before McCain chose her for his running mate.
I'm still a Sarah fan. That being said, I think we need to be patient. I'm not sure she'll be ready for a 2012 run, but she'll be the one who'll impact that election. No reasonable person can say that she doesn't need a better foundation of knowledge, but all that takes is time.
She's going to make a big difference in the national political landscape. Whether she's at the top or the gal that drives the bus, her impact will be spectacular.
Kwaisi the VP is the president of the Senate and can maintain control of that body. Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr both sat there and ran the place during their terms.Yes voting only to break a tie.Lately VPs have done more ceremonial crap except Cheney who had more wash experience both elected and appointed than almost anybody in the town.
Rush just flat admires the patriotism and courage of Sarah.
Let's remember the stupidity that keeps on coming out of Obama's mouth..I guess I can accuse Obama of ACTING STUPIDITY. Let's see,
57 states. Yep, apparently we live in 57 states now
Let's not forget about talking the Austrian.
Calling Memorial Day, Labor Day, yep, pure genius right there
Couldn't even identity what an inhaler is for children with asthma, I forgot what he called it. The list goes on and on, and how about the LIES Obama has told..Yeah, I really believe he sat in the most radical, racist, church I have ever seen for 20 years and heard nothing, yeah sure, so what, he sat there and read the funnies the whole time. He is a radical who believes that America is a mean country who needs to go around apologizing for everything. America is the greatest country in the world. We have NOTHING to apologize for and we certainly don't need to go shake hands with tyrants. I hope you are not for this socialized medicine crap, I hope to God you are not for that, because that socialized medicine will end up killing thousands of Americans
Kwaisi,
With all due respect, Barack Obama is the LEAST qualified president we have had in recent memory. Aside from his short stints in the state sentate and US senate, this is the FIRST real job he has ever held. His "educational pedigree" means absolutely NOTHING if he cannot comprehend basic economics--and he can't. He's also a walking gaffe machine--as is his VP. Barack Obama's disdain for this country and it's founding principles will be his undoing. He may have fooled enough "moderates" to get his foot into the Oval Office but his Alinsky/Acorn stripes are showing and it's very disconcerting. He is not only woefully inadequate as a CIC but he's also woefully vain. He is the epitome of the Chicago thug politician. I just hope we will be spared the brunt of his socialist agenda before someone who actually loves this country and believes in it's people is elected.
Running to the right(conservative) makes for Right landslides.
Running mushy middle, makes for being saddled with The One Who Governs Stupidly.
Sarah Palin - learned more of what it takes to be President on that one day fishing than Obama learned in his life. Has done the job for a half a year and is still flopping around like one of those Sockeyes Sarah brough in.
Kwaisi,
You say you disagree with Palin's beliefs? What beliefs would those be? And if you are an Obama supporter, does that mean you believe in Black Liberation Theology? Just curious...
Good point, TinyDancer.
I'm always baffled when people say "I don't agree with her beliefs". It frightens me that we live amongst Americans who don't believe in smaller government, fiscal responsibility and the Constitution.
Have we really come to this?
Oh is also means it is OK to say police acted stupidly while admitting you don't have all the facts. Also accuse docotrs of breaking their oath to just make money too.
Sarah Is A "Spectacular" Celebrity...
Brit Hume said it... because it is true.
Nobody asks, "Sarah who...?"
Everybody knows "Sarah"...
- Sarah, the Governor
- Sarah, the wife
- Sarah, the mother of 5
- Sarah, the electrifying public speaker
- Sarah, the iconoclast
- Sarah, a unique American original
- Sarah, a "spark"
- Sarah, a light in the dark
- Sarah, a LADY with a servant's heart
- Sarah, an inspiring LADY - Wife- Mom
Sarah is such a "spectacular celebrity"...
she will probably be the "unifier"...
who will pull the center but LEFT conservatives...
AND...
the center but RIGHT conservative.
squarely into absolute Reagan CENTER conservative position...
with the perennial conservative message of
- limited government,
- lower taxes,
- strong defense,
- constitutional right to life, and,
- hopefully, energy independence...
with Alaska playing a prominent role in supplying the lower 48 states with gobs of lower cost gas and oil
This is Sarah today... and tomorrow.
But, maybe we should take it one day at a time, as Cristy Lane put it in her song "One Day At A Time"

Nancy --
Yup, the last presidential candidate that "ran to the right" won 49 states.
PEC:
I am more qualified to be POTUS than you or Obama. ;)
Here are my credentials.
I have lived in Europe, and not on a military base, but with the regular people, for several years. I have also lived in the Middle East, yes, again not on an army base, but with the people. I have also traveled widely throughout Europe, including Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union (Back when it was still the Soviet Union). At no time was I isolated by being military, I was an oil brat and fending for myself.
You can easily see how qualified I am to be POTUS.
Obama should step down immediately and let ME take over. I also have a college degree, there again, I am very qualified. My first act will be to appoint Sarah Palin my VP and closest advisor.
I am sure since I have lived overseas more than Obama has the left will LOVE me.
Sarah Palin has more qualifications in her pinky toe then Obama has in his ENTIRE body. Obama has single handily destroyed this country to the point where it might take 20 years to fix. Apparently some don't care. See, Sarah Palin doesn't believe in giving you a damn handout, you want money, GO EARN IT. You want a house, GO BUY ONE. Stop relying on the Government to be your damn nanny. Government will giveth, and taketh away from you. You want to your life to be in the hands of the Government, that will only lead to failure. Sarah believes in what Reagan believed in, get off your tail and make your own life, stop depending on Government to answer all your questions and give you health care, because if that bill passes, thousands are gonna die, don't believe me. Since your SO interested in passports, GO VISIT CANADA and see your future
Thanks for respectfully chiming in law guy. Sarah went to four schools, actually, two in Hawaii (one was on a rainy island, one was a sunnier spot, more her style) and two in Idaho, closer to home.
I read all about Sarah's colleges in her biography: How a Hockey Mom Turned Alaska's Political Establishment Upside Down.
Meanwhile, I hear there's new biography coming out on Obama as well:
How an Indonesian Student Sucked Up to All the Marxists at Harvard
I hear it explains his three colleges, how the expenses were covered by the Fulbright scholarship for foreign students, and the shieks who graciously bought him an Ivy League education. (He considered entering a beauty pageant to pay for college, like Sarah, but then a rich Arab with Anti-American leanings said, "Don't worry Barry -- I gotcha covered. Harvard it shall be.")
I think there's even a chapter on Barry's $300 worth of unpaid parking tickets at Harvard, which THANKFULLY he paid before he became president. That could have been so awkward. Can you imagine Officer Crowley bursting into the White House to drag B.O.'s delinquent ass back to Cambridge?
Glad we got that cleared up.
And I think I have to toss another few hundred in my imaginary kitty for the "study up Sarah" comments. It's gonna get ugly fast!
Yogi41 and Tiny Dancer, right on!!
But even more baffling:
If we forgive those who elected this person into office, how can we forgive them for continuing support after seeing what he's up to?
I would not have believed there were that many people who agreed with what this administration is doing.
I realize the numbers are falling, but still, they should be "0" by now
Lipstick:
IMHO Sarah will not beat Obama based on Presidential qualifications. She will beat the Messiah in 2010 and 2012 by exposing him as a false prophet and speaking with passion, empathy and credibility to the fear and terror that the American people have for Obama's radcial socialist agenda, proving she is a bona fide leader.
Lipstick - You win. I will just be VP. I do have the College Degree. But my Antartica and India trips weren't military. So you can have complete trust in me as your VP. Plus I know that FDR did not get on TV in 1929.
What office do Huckabee and Romney currently hold? In fact - what do either of them actually do day to day?
Here's Coulter vs. Frum, part 2. I love Ann's response at the end, when time was running out: "I disagree with all of that", referring to what Frum had said:
http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=5190576n&
Techno:
Sarah is a leader, she is MY leader. I agree she will expose Obama, he is a failure and it will only get worse. Sarah is an American, not a wannabe European socialist like Obama.
I don't give any bat snot if Sarah has been anywhere overseas. I was just being sarcastic about concern trolls thinking you need a passport full of stamps and that somehow makes you qualified to be POTUS. My passport is pretty full and I am the least qualified person on this comment section to be POTUS.
I don't care if Sarah has never even been to Canada, she can lead this country and do a darn good job of it too.
Oh boy, here we go again with Ivy League v. Non-Ivy League schools.
Let's put some numbers to this "analysis":
1. Total number of students enrolled in higher education in the U.S. is 14,261,778.
2. Total number of Ivy League students is around 114,700.
3. Total number of student enrolled at non-Ivy League institutions is approximately 14,147,078.
Does the elite class (graduates from the Ivy League) really want to brawl and belittle the accomplishments with the millions of graduates from non-Ivy League schools?
The arrogant and pompous mentality permeating from that very, very small segment of the U.S. population is troublesome.
The numbers are on our side.
Huckabee's probably wondering if he should go back to his preaching gig. Romney? Maybe considering if he should buy a pair of Naughty Monkey pumps and start cross-dressing?
PEC:
No that won't work. Let me appoint Sarah my VP, then I will step down,lets see, I'll wear a Nike logo on my shirt or something to get impeached and then Sarah can be POTUS and then appoint you VP.
That will work nicely. That lets me stay in my beloved Texas.
You guys sure are dreaming if you think she is going to be president. There are only about 23 percent of the people who claim they are republicans. That amount of people will never get a republican in the white house. I agree with Kwaisi he spoke the truth about Sarah. How come you arent jumbing all over him. Like you do when I make a comment about her.
LOL EdFAb.
O/T ... did you see how Gibbs had to answer questions about Obama's birth certificate today? Good lord, it's happening ... the implosion of the Annointed One. They can't stay on message. They've got cops and racist professors coming for beer. And birthers won't go away.
May day may day ... TOTUS??? Where are you going? Get back here???
Because Kwaisi at least tries to say something intelligent and you don't bother, you just flame. That's why.
heads-up: the AKSarahPalin Twitter account seems to be a fake.

All at once: QUITTER!! :)
Kwaisi
As an Obama supporter, you must have every golden statement burned into your mind as you worship his vastely superior intelligence. Do you remember during the Olympics, when Obama expressed his admiration for China's infrastructure which he claimed was so superior to the US? I don't know whether Obama had ever actually been to China before he made these claims but I suspect he was referring to the show that was displayed for the Olympics. I was in China for several months as a United States Citizen Ambassador for Healthcare. I spent these months touring and teaching in more than a dozen cities around China as well as significant time in Beijing. I can tell you from experience that the level of infrastructure development displayed in Beijing was to impress gullible foreigners who never did much traveling outside of Beijing. While I was there, they were building high rise apartment buildings that had no indooor plumbing and the common folk were forced to transport their night waste down the stairs (no elevators) daily to be picked up by peple with tanks on bicycles. This human waste was used as fertilizer accounting to the 1000 to 2000 cases of Hepatitis A seen daily in Beijing Hospitals. Even at the more modern hospitals in Beijing, they had gigantic tanks to boil the water prior to use in the hospital because of hepatitis. In our Beijing hotel, they would bring us bottles of boiling water each night so that we could use it to brush our teeth. I had to replace my toothbrush at least 3 times because I forgot and rinsed it under the faucet (contaminated water). Have you ever taken a shower and tried not to get any water in your eyes or mouth for fear of Hepatitis?
In touring the outlying villages and cities, the level of poor infrastructure became much worse. Open ditches with sewage. After climbing the Great Wall, I satisfied my thirst with hot cokes we had brought with us because we could not get uncontaminated ice.
Remember the earthquakes just prior to the Olympics that killed hundreds of children in a newly built school that was built of poor quality cement with no rebar framework to prevent the collapse of the building. Great infrastructure.
Also, the improvements that were displayed for the gullible Westerners was built by slave labor and entire blocks of the citizens dwellings were leveled to accomplish this impressive display. I seem to remember two elderly ladies who had lost their homes and were living on the street complaining to the media before they were hauled off to jail. One thing that bothered me was the poor service we received in the hotels from the staff. This was because everyone in China are assigned to jobs by the government according to testing when they are young. They have no hope of pay raises, are not allowed to take tips, and are essentially stuck in that job for life with no hope of advancement. No incentive to do a good job.
I could spend hours describing the types of healthcare provided to the citizens in the government run socialized healthcare system but I'm tired of trying to enlighten an Obama follower. I suspect that they are likely to be as clueless as he is.
I will tell you my reaction when finally coming back to the US after so long in a government controlled land. I wanted to bend down and kiss the ground and I said to myself I'll never complain about taxes again. I will probably regret that last thought in the very near future under an Obama administration.
As far as Sarah's twitter page goes, she will announce it on her site, dont listen to any BS about any twitter page til it is announced by Sarah HERSELF
And the sexism just keeps on coming.....
http://www.gop12.com/2009/07/more-americans-want-palin-to-be.html
This just irritates the holy hell out of me. I'm 45 years old, I'm a parent and I'm a woman. So this means it is best for me to just stay home and be a "homemaker" instead of possibly shaping national policy, etc. No one and I mean no one has ever said that about Hillary Clinton, Madeline Albright, etc.!!! And if they did....? There would be hell to pay!!!! Gahhhhh!
One of the many reasons the GOP has lost all credibility with me is that they have not rallied around Palin and acted like an attack on one is an attack on all. You hardly EVER hear a leftist/democrat attack Barack Obama. They are all on the same page while the republicans have person after person go on TV and attack Palin, OUR BIGGEST STAR!
WTF is wrong with these people? Do they want to lose every election? How can we fight the socialist left when we are too busy fighting each other? Why isnt David Frum and his ilk attacking the fact that Obama is adding trillions to our debt while unemployment is rising?
WHERE THE HELL IS THE GOP!? They attack Sarah more then Obama! I am to the point now where I rather lose with Sarah and watch the country burn, than join up with Frum and crew and watch it burn slowly and more painfully over the rest of my entire life.
Can someone on OUR side, meaning the C4P side please help me understand this?
AND, as far these Obama supporters coming to this site and giving advice? ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? They voted for a guy who apologizes for america and adds trillions to our debt with no way in hell to pay for it, now or ever. If I am interviewing someone to work for me investing, if they parrot this crap about "stimulus" I throw them out of the office and say, get the hell out of here.
If anyone here at this site, thinks these leftists really want to come here and have a nice dialouge and be reasonable you are dreaming. They are here to distract us from our goal and spread lies about Sarah. Why do we tolerate it? We better wake up and wake up fast.
Where are you getting the Ivy League numbers? That count seems awfully high (perhaps skewed by the higher enrollment numbers at Cornell?). In any event, the "elite Northeast" crowd are talking HYP when they talk "Ivy League."
For all we know Obama could have passed Columbia and Harvard with C's and a few D's. He is hiding his transcripts and school records for some reason.
How do we know he didn't nearly flunk out???? Why are some so ignorant to wave that flag of Ivy league when there is really no proof that he attended or performed well (except verification but with no written proof).
Seriously, Kwaisi pick a different line of attack and next time stick around to defend your arguement to the end.
Allah @ Hot Air has a post up:
"Fox News poll: Plurality thinks best job for Palin would be … homemaker?"
"Of the six options given — president, VP, talk-show host, college professor, homemaker, and “other” — homemaker was the top pick by far of Democrats and independents and the second choice of Republicans behind VP."
Question:
WTF kind of choice is "homemaker". And why WTF is Allah posting such a sexist stupid poll anyway.
http://hotair.com/archives/2009/07/27/fox-news-poll-plurality-thinks-best-job-for-palin-would-be-homemaker/
Hey everybody, you have to go to Instapundit and see the PJTV edition done by Bill Whittle.
It is gREAT!!
MO3, speaking of teleprompters, why have Obama show up during these news conferences at all? The networks can just zoom in on the teleprompter and we'll just read the words from the screen, including the canned answers to the official state-sanctioned questions.
"Obama hadn't visited a foreign country til he started campaigning, but "
Actually, barry o. left his home country and moved to Hawaii. Then barry sotoro moved to Pakistan (where America citizens could NOT go) where he went to muslim school and learned to hate America and everything it (and WE) stand for..
All Ivy League schools (including undergraduate and post-graduate enrollement).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivy_League
Penn, Darmouth, Cornell and Brown University, in my opinion, should be included mentioninn "elite Northeast".
What Is The Center...?
The Ann Coulter, David Frum, Bay Buchanan 5 min. video the day before Sarah transferred power in Alaska is an excellent example of what the Reagan CENTER means and is...
relative to Sarah and her "unifier" quality,
although David Frum spins it to his conservative but left... of center, and
Bay Buchanan sorta kinda spins it to her conservative but right... of center position, and
Ann Coulter is smack dab in the Reagan CENTER position... relative to Sarah.
Reagan was the CENTER, as far as the conservative republican (small R) point of view is.
Anybody who calls a Reagan CENTER candidate like Sarah "far right" is simply showing how "far LEFT" of CENTER they really are.

JimR3 - That poll is crap! This bothers me the more and more I think about it!
I am the same age as she is, a mother, a wife and I run two companies!!! They are not huge, but they are a lot of responsibility. I can't imagine the stress of trying to run a STATE and then add all this other crap she has had to endure when nominated as VP!
I'm with Dan....the GOP needs to start defending this woman and start doing it NOW!
Dan C, I felt the same way a few days ago. However, I think we have to make a distinction between Romney and Huckabee strategists (who are being called 'republican' strategists by the MSM), and the actual RNC organization itself. Gingrich actually said some nice things about Sarah recently. The beef I have with the RNC is that they didn't come to her aid during the leftist attacks from people like Lettermen. Maybe that will change.
According to those choices the only one the media thinks she has the ability to do, is talk show host. That tells you alot about their profession. Well, she is misundereducated, dumb as a box of rocks, and an attention hog. Isn't that right talking heads on MSNBC, CNN, blah, blah, blah?
ShyannC:
I'm with you. What kind of poll is that. Disgraceful.
Who they ask that about Michelle Obama? I think not.
I am not a Michelle Obama fan but she is educated and smart, she can do anything she wants. Just because she is a woman means nothing.
Why not the same for Sarah Palin? Oh, yeah, because she is a conservative, educated, smart woman. Silly me.
By the way:
Would love to see Greta get her teeth into this "poll". Or Meghan Kelly.
Oh, while I'm at it, who paid money for a carppy poll like that?
DUMB.
@Dan C
The GOP is already dead. Look at them, they attack her more then the left does. Apparently the idiots in the GOP never heard of the Reagan Commandment "Never speak ill of any Republican" the GOP has gone left. Look at them, they kiss Obama's ass more then the Dems do, why, to be politically correct, to not be called racists. The GOP is now the democrat lite. They have sold their souls to the devil. They will never defend Sarah just like they never defended Ronald Reagan. Reagan had to do it all on his own, and he did it PERFECTLY. He went around the media, spoke directly to the people. That is what Sarah has to do, speak at tea parties, events, etc, speak out against Obama's Marxist agenda. That is how she gets her message out, even though the media are all against her, they can't stop covering her so she can use that to her advantage.
As far as the Fox News poll about people wanting her to be a homemaker. WOW, how sexist is that! Maybe Obama should have been a basketball player..talk about stereotyping people! What next, she should be barefoot and pregnant too..Good God, another problem, there is too much damn sexism in this country
Cavuto is going to have a segment on the parallels between Reagan and Gov. Palin.
Regarding the "homemaker" question, let's not make a big deal about it.
If the same question was asked of Hillary in 2005, I'd suspect she'd receive similar numbers on that question as Palin. Frankly, I'm stunned that only 45% of Democrat respondents indicated homemaker.
I can easily see 70% of Republicans naming that as their choice for Hillary.
In reality Obama attended school as a foreign student on an Indonesian passport which is why transcripts are sealed. Harvard law was paid for by some rich arab.
Ask any self made millionaire it's brains,focus and hard work not a piece of paper from anyplace that is key.Sarah has real world experience and great instincts.
TommyReport:
You think Hillary has a clue how to clean house? ;)
Not make a big deal out of it?!?!? That is the single most sexist thing I've seen since the election. "Homemaker" should NEVER have been a choice, because it would NEVER be asked of a male candidate. I plan to make a very big deal out of it, thanks very much.
Plurality say best job for Obama is "other".
Tommy: It is a big deal. It is a big deal to every woman. Sorry!!!
Yes, most of us would think it not proper to ask that question regarding Hillary or any woman.
Lee@4:23
Thanks for the heads up. That was fantastic
EVERYONE GO TO PJTV AND SEE BILL WHITTLE'S AFTERBURNER ON SARAH.
Thank you Shyann Canon and others who responded to my question.
I have no problem with anyone who thinks Romney would be better etc. You can easilly argue FOR Romney while not trashing Palin. Yet, I never see this happen. It is all trash all the time, with the exception of a few. Maybe we need the dems to get 70 senate seats before these "experts" wake up and fight.
Interesting as he was the one who said she was finished after she left office. Glad he turned around :)
There are only about 23 percent of the people who claim they are republicans. That amount of people will never get a republican in the white house.
That's unimportant. Her attraction is to conservatives (41%) and libertarians of either party, and Independents.
December 2010 will be the decision point. If her efforts through 2010 result in the election of more conservatives (mainly Republicans) who share her values, and she has increased her popularity and viability, then the door is open for a run for 2012. She'll have to campaign for conservative congressmen as well as for herself in 2012 in order to have a governing coalition.
On the other hand, if she hasn't been effective, or the MSM has beaten her down, she can throw her support to another candidate, or just go fishing.
Juju,
I didn't mean that the poll question wasn't sexist.
I thought that the percentage indicating that they thought she should remain a homemaker wasn't actually that high.
Not make a big deal about it, Tommy Report?
NOT MAKE A BIG DEAL ABOUT IT MY ASS!
Just when you think that the country is moving on, that women can do all sorts of jobs, that just maybe I'll be alive to see a woman president, then we get hit with crap like that.
Why doesn't someone do a poll and ask them if they think BO should be a homemaker, or Newt, or Mitt, etc.?
I'm a conservative woman and it offends me that this was even a question on a poll about a political figure.
Sorry, Tommy, but don't you dare tell us women not to make a big deal about this. It's insulting and it is sexist and I'd feel that way if it was asked of Hillary, Pelosi or any female - period.
Does Hume know something? It was reported here that Murdoch may have visited Sarah Palin? I may be speaking heresy here but I'd be open to a television show on Fox. Once a week and not like the unwatchable one Huckabee does.
Here's an interesing quote from Roger Stone who has been in Sarah's corner.
"[Palin] ... sustained major damage from the attacks on her by the establishment media, and in some cases, her own hand. Thus, she must rebuild and correct misimpressions about her to be a viable political force - and that cannot be done through the lens of the media through their coverage of speeches, press conferences and guest appearances. Only through the focused power of television can Palin be reinvented and then only with total control of the TV presentation.
Those right-wing yahoos who wrote in to say - 'oh no-not another Mike Huckabee show' are right and wrong. That isn't the show, isn't the format and Mike Huckabee will never be as exciting or interesting as Sarah Palin."

TommyReport:
Are you married? Go home and show this to your wife and see if her reaction is the same as all us girls here!
I recognize the poll question was sexist.
What remedy are you suggesting? That we put up a post slamming Opinion Dynamics for asking the question?
Here is the bottom line ...
2008 was ANYBODY but Bush ...
2012 will be ANYBODY but Obama ...
The republican base ultimately decides the republican nominee ...
The republican base LOVES Sarah ...
Therefore she will be the nominee in 2012 ...
ANYBODY but Obama in 2012 = Sarah Palin President ...
The liberal media knows this, and thats why the waste all their time atacking her, and not Romney or Huckabee ...
That is why you see all the trolls spend so much time on Palin sites ...
If Sarah is no threat, than why do trolls spend so much energy going to Palin sites ???
PALIN 2012
We need New Agenda on this and NOW.
The head of NOW is a Republican and
they might make a statement about this and they should.
Lipstick,
No is my answer to your question.
People are just going to say that we don't like the data, rather than acknowledging the point that it's a sexist question.
Jane Hampton on Cavuto – Palin can pull off a Reagan

Tommy:
Yes. C4P should absolutely put up a post slamming the poll as sexist. I'm completely down with that.
That PJTV video is terrific.
Dan C said...

That is EXACTLY my beef with the Romney crowd. It's bad enough that the Left bashes her and her supporters but the fact that the GOP does the same makes me want to scream.
They whine about her being divisive and IMO they are doing far more harm to the GOP. I'm close to the point of telling the GOP to drop dead. I dn't know that the Left is that much worse than the GOP "elites." If they think Palin supporters are so stupid let them try and elect their guy without us. Hope they can pander enough to snag a lot of Moderates because they won't be getting my vote.
Maverick:
You nailed it.
I live in Illinois so I may write in Sarah Palin in 2012 regardless of who the canidates are. If I was in a swing state I probly wouldnt do that, but I might depending on how bad the GOP hacks piss me off.
Dan C - I have already decided I will write her in in the Repub Primary even if she isan't running. Don't care for any of the other ones.
I am starting to think the political argument is no longer about republican or democrat. It might not even be conservative or liberal. It is now BIG government control vs. small government liberty. 90% of dems are in big gov camp, but sadly probly 50%-60% of republicans are in the big gov camp too.
NEWSBREAK!!! BIG!!!
They just indicted a terroist cell here in NC in Johnston County.
First we've heard of it!
http://abclocal.go.com/wtvd/story?section=news/local&id=6935151
Absolutely right, Maverick.
LOL, Nancy ... :)
I'm convinced that nothing matters right now. Sarah isn't going anywhere. Barack ain't going anywhere. She can stay home and cook mooseburgers for two years if she wants to, because we all know where this is heading ...
Anyone remotely following politics knows that there is no other possible scenario to consider ... The "stars are in alignment" as they say ... We sense it in our bones ... a karmic collision coming ... a destiny ...
There will be only one monumental showdown in 2012:
Sarah "the Baracuda" Palin
vs.
Barack "the Community Organizer In Chief"
Ultimate Fighting Championship
Get your popcorn ready. Watch the smackdown. You know it's coming.
Ever since we saw that girlie throw at the all-star game, and watched Sarah in her hip waders rippin' into Andrea Mitchell ... we knew it would be game on.
It'll be 4 years in the making. The grudge match.
I'm guessing Sarah in a knockout.
Since he's being polite, I won't go for the evisceration of Kwaisi verbally BUT.....
His statement is a tired old rehashing of the Obamabots talking points. You couldn't have any LESS experience than Obama had on taking office, either from an executive management standpoint or a foreign policy standpoint so please stop telling me Governor Palin's experience is so limited and makes it a negative for being President.
I wonder if this is Governor Palin's strategy?
Since we know she doesn't trust the media one bit and we know that she prefers to meet with Americans one on one, is this an opportunity to go across America to try and convey her real message without the filter of the State Run Media? Doing it so early will allow her to get in quite a bit prior to the 2012 election.
Sarah has my vote, now and forever. I don't care who runs against her. There is nothing the MSM can do to dull her lustre or diminish her appeal to me as a candidate.
Folks always think political. This 'homemaker' answer was elicited to drive a wedge into the evangelical community to target its misogynistic tendencies among some of its members to draw it more to Huckabee and weaken Palin and therefore allow Romney to come up the middle and flourish.
The homemaker 'choice' is SO insulting and SO laughably sexist, that obviously it's just FOX doing their level best to marginalize and humiliate Sarah Palin. Believe me, the Promise Keepers FOX is not.
That's their way of sneering at middle America and everything it stands for.
Laura Ingraham herself claimed that when she did her short lived/interim show of FOX that HER OWN CREW did everything they could to sabotage her because they couldn't stand working on another conservative show. Just go to that deplorable FOX NATION to see how anti-Palin they are.
Maverick, that would be great for two reasons. One, it would help the the country and we could get back on track. Two, the MSM heads would literally explode on live tv and it would make me laugh:)
I would just like to thank all the people who make this site possible. It is so vital at this time to have a place like this. Thanks to all! It means alot to me and many others too I'm sure.
<< There are only about 23 percent of the people who claim they are republicans. >>
According to the children at Daily Kos.
Adults know that the current makeup is about 39% Dem, 33% Rep, 28% Ind.

LOL, you know it! Sarah kicks butt with a smile.
I'm beginning to think that Sarah won't need a Press Secretary. She can do a daily smackdown herself on the MSM.
I still wouldnt worry. Sarah's Army has its marching orders as of yesterday: attack, attack, attack.
This means our job is simply to call out sexism, and media bias, abiding religiously by the Al Sharpton rule: scream bloody murder! (Fox poll was garbage)
Sarah has 680,000 facebook friends now; she's gaining about 1,000 per day. She'll keep her Warriors posted on her every move. Huckster is still languishing around 100,000 and Romney at 67,000, while Barrack looms above at 6,600,000(most of which are Western Europeans)
Sarah's just havin' fun with the base right now, rippin' the media a new one. At some point, as has been mentioned (Western?) she'll put together her "nuculear" strategy for the misogynists in the GOP elite.
She'll hook up with the PUMAs eventually, and Lady de Rothschild. She'll call out big business Republicans who have sold their souls to Wall Street at the expense of manufacturing and jobs, whatever.
She'll spend some time in Detroit. maybe hang out with Kid Rock.
And then she will turn her attention to her arch Nemesis, her polar opposite, the only other rockstar in the American political universe: a diminished, but still cocky Barry!
Maverick007
I can let my emotions run away with me, but when I take a deep breath I have a fairly logical mind.
When I think logically about it, taking all emotions away (which is hard to do with Sarah), I see it exactly the same way.
I run a business, and if this were a strictly business decision, I'd go with Sarah's chances in a heart beat.
I think that the ones who are either myopic or letting their emotions run away with them are the ones who don't see that her chances of being the next POTUS are outstanding.
Ironically, the ones thinking clearly about this are the Left!--hence the mad dog hysteria.
She's not just the "go with your heart" pick, she's the logical pick.
If she plays her cards right (and she always does), I think she's unstopable.
Juju
I sent the very sexist poll directly to Amy at New Agenda. Let her fight the fight for Sarah and other female politician.
I agree with Techno. This is an effort to push Sarah into the hard right evangelical Huckabee wing of the party away from Moderates and yet remind that same wing that she should be 'home'.
Romney is written all over this. He wants to marginalize Sarah by moving her away from the moderate middle and into the hard right minority of the party. He also wants Sarah and Huck to split that vote leaving Romney with the rest. Romney is playing hardball and he is doing it in the most vile sexist way.
I lost all respect for him because of the way his 'bots' behave online. They have their talking points and they are organized. I think this will backfire on him.
The only poll that really matters in terms of voter tendencies is the recent poll which indicated the following:
liberal: 21%
conservative: 40%
moderate: 35%
Why is that more important? Because if I was asked about my party identification, I would say libertarian and the pollster would either not include me in the results or lump me in with none of the above.
There are many conservatives who are fed up with the GOP establishment and no longer call themselves Republican, although they certainly won't vote for a Democrat. That's why so many of those polls skew the results to make Governor Palin look bad. I bet if a poll was conducted with the percentages above, the poll would be much more favorable toward Governor Palin...and more accurate as well.
If she does not want to run for office again then that is fine with me. It is up to her. If she does, I will support her and the ideas she has. Regardless, she will fight for America on issues like energy and support for our troops, and I will support her on that.
You should all check out that Bill Whittle post he put in Pajamas TV. Perhaps one of the best videos I Have ever seen..He had it right on the money. Basically explains everything
http://www.pjtv.com/?cmd=video&video-id=2235
Now as far as Sarah "might" not be coming to the event. Look, I don't care what you might hear in the press, wait for Sarah to confirm it HERSELF. I don't care if someone comes out and yells it from the highest mountaintop. Wait for HER to say it. Then that is official confirmation. Tammy Bruce will be there, she said that she thinks Sarah will be there. Just wait for official confirmation
If anyone didn't hear Rush today in regards to Sarah speech here's the text.

btw...note the poster.
"sum of all fears"...lol.
"The sooner C4P realizes that Sarah is not going to run for President, the better it will be here."
Thanks for confirming everything we've been saying "Real Alaskan".
Your concern for Alaska is touching btw.
Why would they make such a big deal of it this past month only now for Meg to imply Sarah may not come?
Because she really is going and Meg couldn't confirm it while Palin was still Governor.
Bottom line (at least mine) on Kwaisi:
Barack Obama being elected President sets the bar so low in terms of "experience", that the issue -- especially argued by Dems or Libs agianst Palin -- is completely off the table, COMPLETELY! (albeit I'd say Sarah Palin has a whole heck of a lot of more and better experience and demonstrated success, than most elected pols to national office)
I am guessing that "Real Alaskan" is either CD, S. Moore, Chapman, Ramras, Hawker, Begich, French or some other loser.
The funny thing about Sarah's move is that sure those above can keep after her but most ALL of my friends including my liberal friends think that if that nonsense continues against Sarah and her family or Parnell that now it is just plain mean and ridiculous. I wouldn't want to be one of them right now or ever.
"RealAlaskan" at 5:53 p.m.: "...we can do [at C4P]."
We? I'm sorry, weren't you told a while back that all your future comments would be deleted because you crossed the line a number of times? I believe you were. So... not so much on the we. Au revoir.
Real Ak: Sorry...I LOVE RUSH...I have listened to him for 20 years and so have thousands and thousands. Any CONSERVATIVE running for election would give their right arm to have Rush in their corner. He has a huge following and is a true conservative.
Do I agree with every thing he says...NO...But, he is a true conservative and I like what he says and I like how he says it.
I do agree with you about all this talk about Sarah and 2012 for Pres. Personally I am more interested in getting Reps. elected to the congress in 2010..that should be our major concern and our battle for now. Sarah can and probably will be our leader in that effort.
Gee -RealAlaskan
For a minute there I thought you were channeling an Obamabot. Apparently you've decided that you and you alone know what Palin plans to do, what C4P should do and for the trifecta you spew standard liberal personal attacks at Rush.
Sorry but you are sounding more and more ike a "concern troll
So, is Sarah Palin qualified to be President? Well, how do you decide? If you determined qualifications the same way you do any other job, the big question would be:
What smaller democracies have you been President of?
Well, of course, no one is actually experienced, they all learn on the job. So we have to determine based on what they've done.
Senators and some congressmen have national recognition and are familiar with global issues but have no executive experience. Actually making decisions and managing a bureauocracy is much different than deciding how to vote or holding comittee meetings.
Governors know how to actually be an executive, but they usually don't have a national visibility and have limited international contacts.
Many Republicans like the idea of successful businessmen since they know how to run a company. Unfortuantely, much of running a company is not the same as being a President. It is generally autocratic, you can hire and fire at will, you don't need to interact with a legislature or pass legislation. Businesspeople are used to things happening just because they decided, no persuasion necessary.
I submit that Sarah Palin is the only potential candidate with actual executive experience in government, working with both parties, who has a national presence and has governed the only state bordered only by foreign countries. She's negotiated with Canadian and Russion interests -- after all you can see Russia from Alaska. From Chicago you can see Michigan and Gary, Indiana.
Palin's tweeting?
Feeling great about not being a lame duck any longer. Progressing AK now that I'm a sitting duck.
Go to aksarahpalin
It's a fake.
Every single supposed Sarah twitter page posted are all fake. The ONLY one AkGovSarahPalin will be updating very soon, according to Team Sarah inside sources. It will probably take another day or so. So everyone, please wait for OFFICIAL word about her twitter page, don't add idiots to your followers list. They are fake
Was just about to say it sounds like a fake. Wait until there is a verified acount.
Right, wait until it is 100% verified to make sure its really her on twitter.
The folks in California think Palin is coming -
the Simi Valley GOP Women's Club statement about the governor's upcoming appearance in its entirety:
Thank you for your expressed interest in our August 8th Event at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum. This event is an Anniversary Party paying tribute to our club's charter, and the Republican Women of Simi Valley, a non-profit group of volunteers.
Governor Sarah Palin is one of several featured guest speakers, and is slated to attend. Reservations are made by invitation only, and non-refundable. There will be no press passes or media passes issued.
Regarding Sarah Palin, "She embodies the values that we hold dear: Faith, Family, Country-first & Service. We are honored to call her our friend and advocate. Palin is noble, and admired by so many of us. She is an amazing human being whose aspirations are simply to bring out the best in people.''
Question: Any idea why she chose your event?
We are celebrating a golden anniversary (our charter)...and it is the 50th anniversary of Alaska's statehood. Sarah Palin loves Alaska and she has a huge following in California. (Her family roots are in southern California.)
Our event is being held at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library & Museum...most of us view Palin as a "Reaganesque" figure, in her approach to policy.
Lastly, we offer tremendous support for the troops and Palin's mission is that of service. It resonates with all of us.''

Notice how she said "progressing AK". That means that whatever she's going to do, fighting Alaska's battles from the outside is her 1st priority--probably until her term would have ended or until the midterms.
That's smart as hell and I'm dying to find out what she's got lined up!
Whatever it is she's got cooking, it'll remove any remnant of the "Quitter" label (although I think she already has to a large extent). She's not going to jump right into strictly national politics. She'll address both.
It's a fake? Lol--Never mind then...but she IS going to do that! (I bet).
Lakerfanalways
Thanks for the Bill Whittle tip. He is awesome!! He tells it like it is and has great insight.
OT daily kos says that the Hawaiian Dem. Rep has proposed a bill claiming Hawaii as O's birthplace.
Why would they feel the need to do that and legally does that change anything?
I mean I was born in Oklahoma but if I can get Congress to claim I was born in Alaska does that make it legally so??
I know O was born in Hawaii. I just don't understand the need for this.
Apparently Michelle Bauchman bought some time before the vote. The kos crowd was not happy.
Firelight:
Let me get this straight.
The country is falling apart and the Congress is worried about introducing a bill saying O was born in Hawaii?
You are kidding right?
If that guy was my Congressman I would feel like he had stolen whatever he gets paid per day right out of my pocket wasting time with that bull.
Kwaiasi- Obama nominated Vp Biden ad said he is" highly qualified" to be president. Biden attended the Univ of Delaware-Newark( not ivy League) and Univ of Syracuse Law( not even in top 50)- So enough of this elitist talk that you need to go to an ivy league to be qualified to be president. Obama himself said that isnt correct when he nominated Joe.Delaware- Idaho- as a grad of UCLA( a state school) I can tell you state grads are very bright, and often not hung up on the rarified elitist atmosphere generated in Cambridge, New Haven and elsewhere in te Ivy League
I think Governor Palin has been studying up just fine.
I thiiiinnnnkkkk she can read, folks.
Seems to know Alinsky's Rules For Radicals.
Seems to know The Thumpin'.
Seems to know Liberty and Tyranny.
I think she knows what she is doing.
Could someone please tell me why everyone says Sarah needs to study, study, read, read, read. I know she had 2 interviews that didn't go well.
But, I don't believe that is enough to be judged that you don't have knowledge in the areas of foreign policy, national affairs, etc. When has she been questioned in these areas? Have I missed something.
Fox News just did that stupid poll again about Sarah as a homemaker.
That makes me so mad I can't see straight.
juju
I posted this on another thread. Go watch this clip it'll make you feel much better about polls
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLhFXkvugLM
National Service = Military Draft
juju:
It goes to show even a noble idea that good old techno could advocate could be perverted to be used as ammunition by the enemy.
When the Left or elitists bring up the subject of 'boning up' they are implying that Sarah is an idiot and has a long way to go to being credible while when I brought up the idea I was assuming that Sarah's intelligence was given, that given two years Sarah would be just that much more conversant on national issues and LEGITIMIZED in the mind of the elitists and RINO's which unfortunately Sarah will need to smoke a peace pipe with to unite the GOP.
If I recommended that Sarah Palin should study Spanish, the Left would pervert that as well and saying she was being discriminatory against Asians.
