Prepping for a run for president?

Do you know what a neo-con is? You actually may have to use the O.E.D. which is Oxford English Dictionary for this one. I do not have the new subscription for it yet.

Use dictionary.com and tell me that is what you meant..lol.

And, if Palin knows the bottom line, why is that so bad?

Hey! Teletubbies is on!!!!!!

She'll figure out where the best con is and that's what she'll do.

Palin is the perfect cross between dumb Bush and gun nut Cheney.

hahahhahaaa.. wait, I got something to... hahahahaaa... I mean...hahahhahaa..QUITER..man, what a LOSER

I absolutely despise the term, neocon. It is meaningless, yet it is used constantly.

Tell me, twocspirt, what does it mean? Do not go off on a hunt for a definition--state what YOU think it means, in the context that YOU used it?

The problem with Palin knowing the bottom line is that she is effectively quitting on the state of Alaska to cash in. The worst label in politics is "quitter". And her justification for not wanting to continue as a lame duck politician is just pathetic. What is she talking about? She has not even completed one term! She's a lightweight, now she'll be a very wealthy lightweight.

She has more experience than Obama and he's been ruining, I mean, running the country for 7 mths!

Thraex52:

I agree...the moment I heard the "lame duck" excuse, I knew it was lame. Many of the possible "real" reasons for her resignation that are listed in the article crossed my mind...I wonder what it really is.

"Neoconservatives are less skeptical of government than other conservatives. They are less worried about reducing the size of government, less enthusiastic about tax cuts, more concerned about forging national crusades that can tap either the American public's patriotism or its desire for reform. You saw this in McCain with his campaign finance proposal and a little bit in his foreign policy" - Rich Lowry

So apply it where you think it fits...

Rev G., I don't need a dictionary to know what a Neo-Con is, just as I don't need a mirror to see what went up your nose.

Neo- Con's was an idea started with the Democrats. They wanted less government in the people's business. However, this is another idea "hijacked" by the slave master's of the likes of the Charles KRAUTHAMMER, his father etc. I am sure you are younger person, and are going on to the fourth-grade. In the year's of Reagan, they were desperate, and hijacked his Presidency. In the Clinton's year's, they tried to persuade Clinton to invade Iraq, Iran Saudi Arabia, etc. They finally got the first Bush to do it, which the first Bush distrusted them, and then they finally got "W" to do it, which, in truth, he was the last to convince, but eventually happened. All the letter's for these invasion's are on line.

Now you say that the President of the U.S.A. is spending this country into a frenzy? You my fourth-grade student are narrow minded shallow, small, and sanctimonious. You are nothing more than a little parrot. Can you chirp, small-minded, or look in the dictionary to what "demagoguery" means's? Further more, the only thing you don't know is the history you have not read, there-fore get your fourth grade ass off the couch and do a little reading.

If I were you, twocspirt2, I would be a little nicer to Rev G. You might need him.

And quit using that "neo-con" crap - you Liberals that think you're flashing your 'intelligence' actually show folks how really dumb you are. And resorting to name calling is extremely childish.

Rev - you were right.

Looks like she has a lot of you fools scared! I have never seen our national media try this hard to smear and discredit anyone. It smells like fear.

I have to agree that she'll go the Limbaugh type route, conservative talk show equals big bucks for her.

It's a good question, since the word has become bastardized over the last decade or so. (And I agree with you, twoCspirt2).

As listed in Wikipedia: "...Jonathan Clarke, a senior fellow at the Carnegie Council for Ethics in International Affairs, proposed the following as the "main characteristics of neoconservatism":

• a tendency to see the world in binary good/evil terms
• low tolerance for diplomacy
• readiness to use military force
• emphasis on US unilateral action
• disdain for multilateral organizations
• focus on the Middle East

To which I would add the point: tendency to use religion to force one's own morality upon others.

I prefer the term American Taliban, since it seems most appropriate.

twocspirt,

Still, no definition of neocon as you used it. One short sentence should suffice.

What is a neolib? Opposite of a neocon?

She may be running from something that would tarnish her even further. as Gov.

Here's her agenda following her Independence Day announcement with the screaming birds in the background.

But setting whatever that is aside, as Gov of Alaska, very little National exposure. With her impending book in 2010, do the book signing tour, sales, more money, that'll get her 'out there.'

Let's not forget her websites where you can donate money:

SarahPAC.com is the ONLY political action committee authorized by Sarah Palin.

Sarah Palin's Official PAC
Dedicated to building America's future, supporting fresh ideas and candidates who share our vision for reform and innovation.

Visit The Alaska Fund Trust at www.thealaskafundtrust.com, the official legal defense fund for Governor Sarah Palin and family.

She does have a bit of tainted history with taking the whole Palin clan, their clothing as official business during the GOP VP run. Paid it back after being investigated. She her own political machine. Impulsive, though.

Then a little run for the Senate. Then all those trips to the Capitol for Senate meetings, free trips as a Senator. Rub elbows with others in Congress, get some on the job training beyond Alaska as oil is so yesterday, National exposure, 2012 or 2016. More free entertainment.

Like a liberal hasn't bled a cause for money. Can you say Al Gore? I lovw how Sarah Palin scares the pants back on the liberals. She sneezes and you say she does it wrong. She's got you right were you belong, afraid! Go Sarah!

Guys,Guys! Listen to me. Do yourselves a favor and go buy as many guns and as much ammo as you can. There's no turning back at this point, Neo-con, Right, Left, none of this will matter soon. There will be only one side if you want America to survive. We can sort out politics and opinions later. Be prepared to defend your family, property, and county. Taxes, "going green", healthcare, unemployment, "shovel ready" projects,who cares. The only shovel ready projects are secure the boarder or burrial detail. The boarders are unsecure, who's going to protect this country? Who's going to protect your family? Wake up!

Have nice weekend!

Neo- Con's was an idea started with the Democrats. They wanted less government in the people's business.

What? The democrats wanted less government in the peoples business? I don't like either party and I don't believe either party has any propensity for less government. That premise is nonsense.

Neocon means neoconservative.

Am guessing that the next we hear,

she has a high profile job and salary with an Alaskan oil company.

Spit out hate? Where in the hell have you been? The press and people like you spit out hate and never gave her a chance, shame on you and shame on America for mouthing off when you don't know all the details you people are a joke and a menance to our political system. Why should people run for a office when you and the goofy press run everyone down.

"Neocon means neoconservative."

And what, is a neoconservative? Again--opposite of a neoliberal?

What is a neolibertarian? Neo-??????????????????????

Darn it! I love buzzwords! Folks use them while not having any idea what they mean, or COULD mean!

Palin may be the dunce that the media has gone overboard to try to make her seem, but she had more experience than Obama and none of the terrorist associations. She made a fool of Biden, of course that's done personally by himself on a daily basis. In an unscripted, truely off the cuff, no teleprompters allowed debate she would expose the idiot and puppet that Obama is.

I don't know what her plans are but I do know that she, as well as about 100 million other actual citizens of the US, could do a much better job than the jackass now in office!

How about a separate seeded link for all the buzzwords from both sides, so everyone can get them out there, with definitions. LOL

Chuck #1.10, to you I am going to tell you, the only thing I have to do is be brown and die.

Storm AZ100, you are on the right track. Stay on top of your game, and God will Bless you, not on my behalf, but on your's.

Spike-322306: The Neo Conservative's of the Democratic party pro-claim that the people of the Democratic party proclaim that "We The People" of the U.S.A. is the goverment of the people and for the people.

According to ASU, an honorary degree is based on a person's life achievements and body of work. Palin has more experience than Obama? Well she definitely could not be awarded an honorary degree from ASU or any other reputable institution for higher learning. She is the epitome of anti-intellectualism, a member of the Flat Earth Society, and incapable of structuring a sentence, also.

In this article, Fineman refers to THAT mainstream (the core of the core of the right wing). Goldwater, or any other retro ideology is too complimentary. I would add to the Republican core those who love Jerry Springer, reality TV, Howard Stern, and perhaps even American Idol as Palin supporters. There is a faction in our country who are lazy, shallow, and not too bright (many also are teabaggers). They will stand by crazies like Joe the Plumber, Michele Bachmann, and yes, Peyton-Place Palin. It is a very sad commentary.

The POTUS is the highest office in the land and the world. We should have very high standards for those who are elected to this position. Just because people can relate to something, doesn't mean it's a presidential qualification. Who gets a job by putting "soccer mom" on their resume? I can only hope the majority will continue to embrace true values, merit, intellect, capability, vision -- all the things someone like Palin lacks and will never posses. The RNC will need to be much better than Palin if they want to win an election.

In regard to "neocon," though it's off topic, this originally was a term associated with liberals. However, over time the term changed to right-wing application. Architects of the Bush Doctrine (listen up Palin), such as Wolfowitz and Perle, are who we now refer to as neocons--those who believe in unilateralism, preemptive strike, and illegal regime change or invasions under the guise of spreading democracy.

Willow,

How true! I am of a conservative nature, but I cringe when I see meaningless buzzwords used by conservatives. "Bleeding heart liberal", is the top of my list for stupid descriptions. There are many other terms I despise--both left and right.

Are "left or right", buzzwords? LOL!

Gary,

Mr. Feinman appears to be cheering for Ms. Palin, so that must make you feel good.

It is sad that you interpret my comment that way. I wish Ms. Palin well. But i am not naiive.

"..The Neo Conservative's of the Democratic party..."

What? Neocons are now Dems? I am absolutely dumbfounded!!!!!!!!

Yep, a truly meaningless term, used by truly unaware people.

Spike- Probably, left or right are buzzwords. It would be a light seeded link but the whole thing would be collasped I'm certain.

Left or right, seems everything is a buzzword, even buzzwords are buzzwords.

It's entertaining to watch the mirroring of aspiring politicians or those in office.

Obama use a word, like 'transparency' then they use it. It a big game of copy cat, if the Pres says it, then I'm gonna show that I am on his side, so I too believe in transparency.

Big mirroring someone else, there gestures, words, mannerisms, so you show them you are in agreement which will make them like you. Psychology stuff.

I consider it entertainment. Makes watching this depressing news a bit more light hearted.

Have a great holiday weekend. and see you on the vine.

Palin may not have more experience than Obama, but she couldn't be any worse. You or I couldn't be any worse. Can you name something that he has done that has benefited Americans in a positive way yet? Don't give me this, "It's going to take time," crap. He is digging the hole deeper and wider than it ever has been.

I, of course, do not know Palin's intentions, but I know she is one of very few politicians that will do what she thinks she needs to do to actually make a difference in other people's lives - not just her pocketbook. Is she still a "politician'? Sure - she has her quarks and faults, but weighing them against others she looks pretty good.

Unfortunately, President Obama is only making the gap between the two parties bigger and is doing very little to bring this country together. God help us all.

Gary-798280, go get you a "Judy Blow Up Doll", that tell's you that she can see Russia in your eye's home-biscuit. Up grade her to say she love's your last years drawer's. You now have the chance of a life time to come out of "Plato's" cave. Bing, or Google the "Man In The Mirror" cookie............ Geezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz..............

twosprit,

You truly astound me. Foolish posts, followed by more foolish posts.

Your "seeing Russia" barb against Palin is completely false, lame, and nonsensical--she never said it, nor implied it.

But, what the heck! Pavlovian response is too common among humans. Ring the bell, the salivating begins.

If you liberals who have been scared to death of Sarah so far (as shown by your extreme desire to squelch the machine that will bring about the demise of your empire) You ain't seen nothing yet!

Go get em Sarah, and please bring your children along. This country can't stop them from going with you anymore!!!

I've got my bumper sticker ready to go for 2012. -----> SARAH AHAHAHA ?

From wikipedia: Neoconservatism is a ; and, while generally supportive of free markets, they are willing to interfere for overriding social purposes.

This would make it sound like the current oligarchy has a greater good underlying their mission. They don't. They wish to expand the empire through violence and manipulation. They are the biggest business on the block and don't care about democracy or freedom. They only care about profits and power. Even if Sarah did want to do something for the American people, she would be able to due to the level of corruption ingrained into the establishment. The president is the sales person for all the BS the corporatocracy serves. Fellow American's get ready for the Amero, no borders, and further circumvention of your natural rights in the name of peace, freedom, and democracy.

True p....445.......I read your post with some reservation. If I am to threw a bomb @ you like I am twocspirit2, would be a "fraud", and if it was , "Two say you are a True-What-What"t? Please. It is what it is. I ain't mad at ya........... the game ended when Sarah said she could out run the President in a foot race. Geeezzzzzz................

Spike, in the "Spirit" of thing's, did anyone change your po-po bag yet home-biscuit? Peace and Harmony "Pee-Wee"......................

TruePatriot -

For what reason do you smear Joe the Plumber? His is an absolutely straightforward standup guy.

Are you still upset that he asked Obama a question that Obama had not scripted for his fawning press, and Obama gave an honest socialist answer?

Best bumper sticker now: Don't blame me...I voted for the American.

I disagree with Howard Fineman.

Her flash has happened, it will never do any better than that.

While she is one of the more popular Republicans, that's only at 20% - there's a handful of Republican hopefuls that are nearly as popular.

I sense she might turn into a lobbiest, although, if she continues to use her "analogies" that she's already burned out, then ... .

Keep your eye on the "basket", Sarah, not the ball.

bybyace28: What, What? The Russian's are going to let us end our war's, and you are the master in your closet? Iran can now see "Russia" from their house and they are now virgin's in your closet? What, what? Geeezzzzzzz................ the Republican National Guard Closet.

WOW! so many comments already!

Palin can sure stir up fear from the left!

I'll give my definition of Neo-Con, and I've never looked the word up either.

I see Neo-Cons as ultra conservative, far right wingers. They usually claim to be die hard christians and think only christianity has a lock on being close to God. Most believe the founding fathers wanted the US to be a Christian led country(they are wrong on that one)

They think only they know what is best for our country and tend to be very closed-minded. They talk a lot of smack about everyone who isn't like themselves but never offer any real solutions to any problems.

They like to blame others for societies problems, without ever looking at themselves. They love to preach a "do as I say, not as I do" message. Most believe they have the right(God given?) to tell others how they must live and procreate.

Many tend to be hateful and spiteful(they don't act like followers of Jesus, though they almost all claim to be). Quite a few are bigots and chauvanistic.

Most are white and think that white makes right.They complain about immigrants(even though their family/ancestors were probably immigrants at one point). Many are homophobes(insecure with their own sexuality, some with hidden homosexual feelings? who knows).

They claim to be very patriotic, yet denounce others as anti-patriotic if they don't act gung ho or aggressive about lashing out at perceived "enemies of freedom or democracy".

I think they tend to be from small towns or have always lived in communties with others that look and act like themselves. They fear change and are distrustful of people with different backgrounds and from different cultures.

I'll add more as I think of it.

Unlike some govs she is putting her state first, two million for fighting the dummies who just want to bash her is not fair to her state. She is stepping out to let her state tend to its business. I dont see her as a loser she is smart and puts others before her self. If she can use this time to study and make herself more able to live up to what the left loonies think is more to their elitist line then that is fine but dont expect her to conform she is one of a kind and I think she has more common sence in her little finger than most Dems have in their whole body. Just because you have conservitive values doesnt mean that your kids are going to do everything right, they all make mistakes, and all you can do is support and help them do better, Id rather have her anytime than some comunity orginizer who doesnt have a friggen idea what he is doing.

2 spirit sounds as if he has had 2 many spirits.

It amazes me how shallow and politically stilted you phony Republican Right Wing hacks are. Of course neo-con means new conservative....it's just like any very temporary political aberation - not very long lasting.

Think for a minute, no matter what party you are or what philosophy you hold dear, can you really see Sarah as the President of our great country? Is this what you want for our future? The terrible meaning of her even running for President is that she will have her finger on the 'button' as soon as she was sworn in. Would or could she represent the People of our Democracy? Not on your life or the lives of your children.

Fireteam, why do you need a gun home biscuit? Do you hang with people that are dressed in "Black"? Hang-out with a "babe", heck, treat her right if you are a "Bishop", and if you ain't in Solomon's world, you are not their yet. None-the-less, treat your women right, and she will put a "Cap" in harm's way, trust me in your behalf, and all children will be OK. Peace and Harmony. Where are the women @?

The problem with Palin is that she is the bottom of the barrel...if she is the future of the repugs no wonder they are going down so fast.

Spike if you do not know what a neocon is you need to go to the kiddie seeds and start there.

A run for President? Now? You've got to be kidding. Oh wait, I can see it now ... 'Madame President, could you please tell us again why you're resigning?' Answer: 'Oh, you know ... it's kind of like ... well, I thought that ... well, you see, it's ... you know ... lame ducks and all ... oh wow, pretty flowers. Next question please ... I didn't like the last one ...'

It's nice to see the far right falling so hard, so fast. Next hopefully the far left will follow suit and we'll finally settle back in the middle where it belongs. The nice, slow, steady pendulum swing rather than this chaotic disaster of the past twelve years or so.

She has no chance to win in 2012. She's too dumb. Her narcissism will drive her to try to make the world believe that she is as wonderful and smart as she thinks she is, but she's just not smart enough to realize that she's in wayyyyyyy over her head.

How long do we have to watch this train wreck? I cringe with every mindless grunt she makes. Exit stage left, please.

I guess Republican Sanford and Senator Ensign do not have the gumption to step down after they stole money to pay for affairs.

Jumping ship 18 mos. before the boat docks is not a good idea for a future presidential candidate. As we all know being the president is not like going on a cruse. During rough waters will she jump ship again and leave her job to someone else?

twocsprit,

Lay off the wobble weed. At least when you post.

YOU ARE A COMPLETE DOLT!!!!!!

DID YOU KNOW THAT A NEO CON IS ACTUALLY A DEMOCRAT????

Thats right dumb dubm LOOK IT UP!!!

Fools all of you Liberals who believe that Neo Con is another name for Republican......Neo Cons were and are the Democrats who dissent with the NEW LEFT WHO HAVE NOW FULLY TAKEN OVER THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY....

Thats right a Neo Con is a Demcorat that believes most Democrats have become Anti American and does not share in their Marxist style values...

In other words it makes them somthing in between the true FAR RIGHT... ( Anarchy) and the true FAR LEFT.... ( Communism)

They are true CLASSICAL AMERICAN LIBERALS ... Only the like big government to some extent!!!

The funny thing is that most modern Democrat Voters are actually NEO CON's

And most True Conservative Republican voters ARE NOT AT ALL ... A NEO CON

Yet it has come to be a slang word for Republican when used by the clueless and ignorant

LIKE YOU THEY JUST DON'T KNOW IT!!!

Fisherman144,

What was Obamas experience? What did he ever run? How long was he a senator? Name one other person who could have got nominated on his record?

It was white guilt that got him elected...No white person with his credentials could have pulled it off...It shows everyday... I am just pointing out the facts,seeing you brought up experience...

It turns out that she liked the expensive clothes she wore during the campaign more than she let on! She's a female and she's republican, so she's chasing the big bucks, pure and simple! She has to seize the moment now, because her 15 minutes is almost up! I personally thought her 15 minutes was up, until the Letterman debacle.

KSColorado, what what you got to say about TruePat....What what? Joe the plumber went to Trinidad Colorado to take care of some "Plumbing? You are despicable to say that you are a Kansan, Colorado "Taliban"-freak. Did you drive your thoughts threw Oklahoman city first? Wink, Wink. Best "Press" in your eye's in the spirit follows: Slavery just ended. Ask a "White" plumber from "Fox". Joe the plumber get's married with Sarah? Ks, what what?

I want to love you all when your light is on. If we did not have the Internets, we should all be nice to each other none the less. Happy fourth of July. Peace and harmony.

Spit-- the way you and other elite snobs throw around the neocon word must mean you consider yourself a NEOCOMunist. Is that it?

so, craig speakman...female republican big bucks...guess THAT explains Hil Clinton, Teresa Heinz Kerry, Nancy ("Miss America" because of all the facelifts) Pelosi, D Feinstein (married to Mr. Starkist tuna), Michele Obama ($350,000 a year for an administrative job at a Chicago hospital), Sally Quinn, A Huffington, Barbra Streisand, etc.

American Lobo, you really should do some research before you post. Except for the Christian and white, I thought you were describing Obama. Note that his do as I say...is exemplified by his terminating voucher programs for poor students in Washington, DC, , intentionally depriving them of a chance to get a better education, while he sends his daughters to an expensive private school.

First of all, palin did bring up how close Russia is to Alaska, that you can see Russia from parts of Alaska and that when the Russians invade air space it's Alaska's air space. Problem is, she has absolutely nothing to do with it when and if they do. That is the US military that scrambles jets in case of encroachment of US air space. Not only that, it didn't even happen while she was in office. And the last time I checked, we are pretty friendly with Canada, the other foreign country she mentioned.

Secondly, if you think being mayor of Wasilla Alaska or even the governor of Alaska, with fewer people in the whole state than in the city of Chicago, is more experience than our current president has, than I have a bridge I would like to sell you. I lived for many years in Alaska, I lived in Wasilla. I know palin. She destroyed that small town before she left it to be governor and left the people in great debt. You all are complaining about the federal deficit, try shouldering the 22 million dollar debt that she left for the very small tax base of Wasilla. They will be paying through the nose for many years to come. I didn't recognize the beautiful little community I left the first time I went back after she took charge. What a shame.

Palin demonstrated her lack of knowledge about the affairs of this country, let alone world affairs. She doesn't have the knowledge or sense to be the leader of this country. She would be an absolute disaster. While I would love to see a woman president, it must be a smart, capable woman who has the ability to do a superb job, not some idiotic mouthpiece who doesn't have a clue. There is absolutely no comparison between her and President Obama. He is a very intelligent and highly educated thinker and she is "pit bull with lipstick?" Even if you don't like his politics, any intellegent thinking person can not possibly believe she is on the same level as he intellectually- and no- she is in no way above him, intellectually speaking.

I am happy for Alaska that she is resigning, however I know she isn't going away. I wish she would, but I won't hold my breath for it. I am amazed that someone counseled her that she would be better off resigning than finishing out her term. But she does have a habbit of quitting. I guess I shouldn't be too surprised.

kscolorado: your first mistake............... you thought.

I call it like I see it. I gave my definition based on my own observations and experiences. You probably just parrot Rush and other right wing nuts.

No Obama isn't out to deny anyone of an education.

If I had the money, I'd be sending my kids to a well rated private school as well. I'd pick a school that has less kids per teacher, so the teachers can spend more time focusing on kids that need more help.

Mia, be nice, hit me beat me kick me, just say you love me in the morning. Sometimes we fight like cat's and dog's, and our kiss are sweeter than honey. You are the "Bomb", and I am your love. God is kindness, threw our love, which is one, all lover prevail isthrew "heart's". We are all lover's in denial, and who gives a "Husky F..k"., What , what?

Yea, Howard Fineman thought there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq too.

Thats how long he has been covering things.

Nothing more than a CIA front I bet.

I'm from Wasilla, Alaska and first of all I'd like to thank Palin for choosing to step down as governor on this independence day weekend effectively once again making everything about herself.

So thanks for abandoning us again Sarah, just like when you left us to run for president last year, or when you left to promote your book this year.

I'm so glad you finally put us on the map Sarah, Wasilla, Alaska is now burned into the brains of every American along with your name. If only it had boosted tourism. Maybe people are afraid of being shot or impregnated. (it's actually pretty likely)

Thanks for that super cool sports complex that's actually north of Wasilla, it was such a success we'll only be paying the millions worth of debt off with our ever rising taxes for the next 15 years.

Everyone in Alaska was really happy when you turned all that stimulus money down. Even though it was because you plan to run for president in 2012 (apocalypse anyone?). It totally made sense that even though you have a special needs child you specifically rejected money for the school district that would have greatly benefited our special ed program.

We totally get you Sarah you're one of us. You wear swimsuits and like to play with guns. You named all your children after super weird Alaska stuff, just like the rest of us. (Who doesn't know a kid named willow?)

You actually making it this far gives me hope that some day soon I'll be running for president too along with every other mother of 5 from good ol' Wasilla. So have a great 4th of July weekend Sarah we'll just be sitting here in limbo because you decided to jump ship(again).

P.S. What's with your accent? We really don't sound like that I swear.

She really should save hers and our taxpayer money.......she has less qualifications than obama does for the job...and the world and economy will only be worse by than.......

Her performance on the national campaign trail (after the first scripted moments in St. Paul) was, for the most part, not only laughable, but also cringe-worthy. She was in over her head.

Thank you, MSNBC, for that 'unbiased', 'objective' analysis of Sarah Palin. You know, it's funny, I don't ever recall words like 'laughable', 'cringe-worthy', 'monument to confusion', 'cutesy-pie', 'shallow' and 'incomplete' used to describe the community organizer, now sitting in the Oval Office, when he was campaigning.

I find it curious that we never received a thourough 'analysis' of Barack Hussein Obama from MSNBC or any other mainstream media outlet throughout his entire campaign. Want proof?

Here's an exchange between Charlie Rose and Tom Brokaw on The Charlie Rose Show, less than a week before the election.

ROSE: I don't know what Barack Obama's worldview is.

BROKAW: No, I don't, either.

ROSE: I don't know how he really sees where China is.

BROKAW: We don't know a lot about Barack Obama and the universe of his thinking about foreign policy.

ROSE: I don't really know. And do we know anything about the people who are advising him?

BROKAW: Yeah, it's an interesting question.

ROSE: He is principally known through his autobiography and through very aspirational (sic) speeches.

BROKAW: Two of them! I don't know what books he's read.

ROSE: What do we know about the heroes of Barack Obama?

BROKAW: There's a lot about him we don't know.

ROSE: I don't know what Barack Obama's worldview is.

BROKAW: No, I don't, either.

ROSE: I don't know how he really sees where China is.

BROKAW: We don't know a lot about Barack Obama and the universe of his thinking about foreign policy.

ROSE: I don't really know. And do we know anything about the people who are advising him?

BROKAW: Yeah, it's an interesting question.

ROSE: He is principally known through his autobiography and through very aspirational (sic) speeches.

BROKAW: Two of them! I don't know what books he's read.

ROSE: What do we know about the heroes of Barack Obama?

BROKAW: There's a lot about him we don't know.

Hey, Fiengold. SHUT UP.

Well your name obviously fits you to a tee..if you can't see what Obama-lama-ding-dong is doing to our country, with all his on-the-job-traing. And to top it all off...he's got Pelosi, Dodd, Barney Frank, and of course Biden for mentors....

Mary-268849

And to top it all off......

#1.71..........Like a bad rerun of the "Little Rascals".........

Dump all your responsibilities for a Hottie in South America, admit to chasing after others while in office, refuse to resign as Governor (a job that is obviously WAY too stressful for you) and you're still in the FAST track to the Presidents office.

Resign ahead of time to clear out past mistakes and your called nutty and puzzled.

Sarah, you need to start sleeping around with any hot young thing crossing your path. You need to spend those dollars flying off to hot flings in other areas (not just family events). You need to refuse to step out of office despite that fact that you might be mentally incapable of signing any legitimate piece of legislation or debating for fair and just causes. That's what makes you a competent candidate for political office!

Spike, why the hell is having someone else define "neocon" such mission for you? You haven't even made one comment that references the article. You keep calling posters "fools" while being blind to the fact that you are doing a better job of living up to that definition. What the hell are you, some begrudged English major that's having a bad day and needs a place to vent?

Anyway, in regards to the actual article: whatever light Fineman tries to paint about this announcement, the truth is that when someone makes an announcement on a Friday--not to mention a Friday that precedes a long holiday weekend--they are trying to disappear before something hits the fan. This was out of the blue and she didn't even take questions.

A neoconservative is someone who believes in unilateral action by the United States, regardless of the best interests of our country, common sense or the opinions or desires of international organizations, the law or our allies. A neoconservative is someone who is ridiculously, needlessly and gratuitously belligerent and who believes that force and the use of military force is always the first and best solution to any problem. A neoconservative is someone perfectly willing to throw away trillions of dollars and thousands of lives chasing the unrealistic chimera of American world hegemony. A neoconservative is someone who does not really believe in our American form of constitutional government and prefers a "unitary executive," who is really some sort of monarch or dictator not bound by any laws. A neoconservative is also an authoritarian, who believes that the self-proclaimed business and societal elites always know best. A neoconservative is someone who believes that the end justifies the means and will lie, cheat and steal at will to attain his or her political objectives. Examples of neoconservatives include Irving Kristol, William Kristol, Norman Podhoretz, Charles Krauthammer, Richard Perle, Elliott Abrams, David Addington, Paul Wolfowitz and Douglas Feith, among many others. Their judgments about foreign and national security issues have been consistently wrong, starting back in the 70's, when they concocted "Team B," to second-guess the CIA's assessment of the strength of the Soviet Union, which was actually on the verge of bankruptcy and collapse, when Team B grandly announced otherwise. Despite their consistent record of misjudgments and failures, they keep getting jobs in our media and government. People who may not be true neoconservatives, but who have adopted their views include Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld and other prominent members of what was the Bush Administration. That should give you a start on the definition of a "neoconservative."

Your "seeing Russia" barb against Palin is completely false, lame, and nonsensical--she never said it, nor implied it.

Um... yeah she did.

They are our next door neighbors and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska.

Yeah, covering politics gives Fineman alot of experiance into what people are thinking or are planning to do.

He is a typical blustery liberal who has all the answers. He is nothing more than a liberal cheerleader who sees no wrong in anything Democratic or liberal.

He continues to take potshots at anything a Republican or conservative does ( and they give him plenty of ammo, percieved or real), but yet when his liberal buddies(my friend Franken) do the same or worse, there's always the deflection printed to blame someone else(uaually the previous administration).

I'm surprised someone pays him to write his drivel.

Yeah, one really can't beat that "fair and balanced" FOX News. LOL

Man, what a nutcase...did anyone watch this speech??...she should be in a mental hospital for a 72 hour evaluation...no kidding, in that speech she talked more circles than the Daytona 500...I just can't believe anyone would think she could run a country, much less a state....how do you just walk away from your job like that...NUTCASE

Aw, give her a break Kevin - she has been bashed so often that it was certainly evident. Poor woman, I wouldn't take kindly to someone like Letterman humiliating MY family. I think she just got tired of it all.

And she would be wrong if she thought she might be a serious candidate in 2012. It might be time to just be a "Susie Homemaker" type.....

No thanks on the "Susie homemaker type". I'd rather have someone in politics who can handle the job and not bake me a pie.

You missed my point, Jazz - I'm suggesting she QUIT politics and do something else.

I don't think so Chuck. I think this is the time for Palin to start her campaign. With what Obama is doing to this country; this could be the perfect time to start. Obama campaigned for 2 yrs. He is going to start hitting our wallets very hard and I think that she is going to be out there campaigning against him. Unemployment stats are up, taxes are coming down the road which will hurt all of us. I think she is going to be out there to help get the Dems out of Congress in 2010. And, for you dems; this woman can talk without a teleprompter! She is not quitting; I think she is going to be out there helping!

Patriot - I happen to like Sara Palin, but NOT as a future president. I feel there are better candidates that will appear - some we don't consider yet. But if I had to consider one now, I like Rommney. Good business sense, and I feel would do an excellent job.

With what this dictatorial, arrogant politico is doing to our country, ANYBODY would be an improvement ! God help us if he bullies Congress into passing the cap and trade bill !!

Really, Obummer had a job when he started campaigning. How many times did he vote present during those 2 years? I agree that if Sarah is running for President getting an early start might be good. Of course she won't have any of that ACORN money or votes from dead people, but we all can't be that lucky.

My honest opinion is that since Michael Steele is such a disappointment for the RNC that we're looking at the next RNC leader.

Run, Forrest, Run!!!!

She's got you pretty worked up and frightened that she actually is going to win in 2012. Maybe in 2010 if the impeachment goes as planned.

She's a pretty smart cookie and probably has inside information of the imminent "Kool-Aid" ban.

Chuck, This will help get the conversations started. Didn't the dems starts running for president in 2005, right after GWB was sworn in? Now it's our turn. Let's hope it's not too late already. Has Pres Obama assigned a Czar to campaigning yet?

HA HA !! LOVED IT, gsiemel !! That SOB is about one Czar away from a full deck !

Doesn't it scare people that NONE of these 'Czars' report to ANYONE but Obama ?? And almost without exception NONE of them have expertise in the area he put them in !! And you were right - Dems started lining up IMMEDIATELY.

Oh - forgot. These threads are about Palin........your fault, gsiemel.....

REV G?? Are you with the TBN Network pushing Sarah Palin? You know the money sucking network that has the old chick with the pink hair crying for money. Is Sarah going to ditch that Pentecostal hair style for a more updated look? How about the little winky dinky expressions????? Laugh,Laugh and Laugh again.......

Rev G - Are you an American? Do you support our Constitution? From what you've been writing, I don't think so. You sound very much like a subversive, terrorist who wants to undermine our freedoms and our way of life. You don't want to be an American, you want to destroy us. Please shut off your Iranian computer and go to sleep.

Mark my words the Palin supporters he will be eating their words like they did when they believed Sanfords hiking trip.

...

At least Palin has the right plan to leave the office in good hands so she can start a run for 2012. Unlike Obama who started running 120 days after he becamee a Senator. Hell no one knew that man's name until 2006. He was and still is a nobody!

The trashing of her and her family has already been done so the only ammo the Left would have had was to try and smear her if she did stay in office and run a campaign at the same time ( like no one has ever done that before, scandal scandal!)

McCain lost because of McCain, he is a progressive GOP and was no better than Obama in my book. The only reason why he got the number of votes he did was because of Palin.

Palin has a Conservative base not seen since Ronald Reagan and Obama is only helping to build it stronger with his socialist agenda

PASS THE POPCORN!

Linda are you serious? You will be looking silly when the real reason Palin left office comes out. Maybe she went hiking?

Linda, Very well said. Now here is the popcorn. I think Condy Rice would be a great VP too. Fabulousticket as far as I'm concerned. And to think, I am a 52 year old, bald, fat, white male, and I can't wait to get to the voting booth. Can someone please tell me where to send the last little bit of money I have left before Obama takes it?

That would be a Power House! Palin/Rice or Rice/Palin

I would take either one!

pddoc you've been on this Sanford trip for awhile. Why don't you think of something else witty to bring up to justify your opinion? This is old.

She's certainly more qualifies as VP than your boy Biden. AT least she knows when to shut up and get out.

jacq24

Its all about doing something different. In a different way. A new approach.

This administration is going to hand this to her on a platter!

Well, we do have a recent history in this nation of embracing the people with underwhelming intellect. So maybe you are right. Personally, I prefer to have a president who is smarter than I am. I am not smart enough to be president and neither is Sarah Palin.

Rev G-I thought you didn't like a different approach because that's what Obama is doing. Only if the different approach comes from your side of the isle! I get it. Sarah Palin and the GOP is toast. 23 percent of the people in the country identify themselves a Republican, their are more minority groups in this country who usually vote Democratic than their are republicans. Change has come to America. Better learn how to work with them or you are going to be forever bitter.

So Rev G we are going to change-----the change?

Wouldn't that just be more of the same old thing?

When Sanford "disappeared" there was all manner of comments here saying the libs were attacking him for nothing, that he really was hiking.   I'll be really surprised if another shoe doesn't drop soon in this Palin story.  But I'm willing to wait.  

As to the hateful comments by some here about members of the other party (whichever), if we work really hard to hate each other enough we may yet succeed in making this country ungovernable.   Some will no doubt say that would be a good thing.

You liberals talk without even thinking! Where was Obama's resume....this idiot did not do a thing; community organizer; what a damn joke this coutry is becoming with him in there. She is much smarter than he is and since he has all of his college records sealed; you cannot even say how smart he really is. If you want a clue on how smart Obama is; how bout 57 states and maybe seeing Verterans in the audience on Memorial Day! Yes, he is so intelligent....need I give more examples of what a sham this guy is!

Neo-con goes back to 1980 when Reagan was elected by, literally, the "new conservatives". Example: auto workers, who normally would've voted democrat, switched after Carter's over-thought and anxiety ridden four years, and voted Republican.

After all, it was "morning in America", and the ad hit home with the former conservative-ish democrats. Or did he use that in '84?

30 years later the hyphened word has been misused to the point of confusion and meaninglessness.

Lee

Yes "Leroy" "and you are an ignorant, bigot for whom this blog serves as a hood.

Well my golly. She has a head line again. She is even almost replacing MJ. She did have her red high heels on though. Hard to walk in the grass with them on. She seemed to do well walking though.

Can't help but believe there will be something else. Maybe she was forced into this because of something has been found out, that she won't want to make public. Some malfeasance, that cannot be dismissed by the for hire Alaska personnel board.

For sure she won't be staying home being a Mommy full time.

Maybe Sara just told the truth and,thats what scares you bed wetting liberals to death,someone who tells the truth,even scares the Democratics and Mainstream media.Look at how Panicy they get even when she says she is stepping down.

The truth? I'm glad she may have finally found it.

I know why she's quitting. She is so afraid that the dems will find out that her nail polish is the wrong color, or maybe, just maybe she got a run in her hose.

Oh, yeah..........she is not kissing the ass of the powers that be! That's it exactly. Thank goodness I got some popcorn and all the accoutrement's to sit back and watch this movie. One more thing: if you rule out the republicans now, you are making a stupid, STUPID mistake. But.....have it your way.

None of the candidates, who were most all Senators, were doing their elected jobs adequately while they were running for the presidency or VP. Perhaps Saraha making a run for Senate would put her in the voters good graces since it appears to carry far more weight than being governor of a State. What ever her plans I hope the best for her. From what I have learned about her she should do well in any arena.

I fail to see how laughing at someone shows panic. It seems to me that "fearing Sarah Palin" is something some people say when they don't have anything else to say.

I personally wish she would start campaigning for President now. She's an excellent source of entertainment and I have zero fear she'd ever be elected.

As for her telling the truth.. have a look at her emails and how she tried to get John McCain's campaign people to lie by saying Tod Palin was in the AIP by "mistake".

LOL they wrote her back and pretty much put it to her that you don't belong to a group for 7 years by "mistake" and that they weren't going to lie for her.

These people were trying to get her and McCain elected but I am sure you'll say they "just didn't like her". Fact is they didn't want to put out a bold face lie when the truth was so publicly known.

Email excerpts:

"Pls get in front of that ridiculous issue that's cropped up all day today -- two reporters, a protester's sign, and many shout-outs all claiming Todd's involvement in an anti-American political party," Palin wrote to Schmidt, Nicolle Wallace and Rick Davis. "It's bull, and I don't want to have to keep reacting to it ... Pls have statement given on this so it's put to bed." Schmidt fired back: "Ignore it. He was a member of the aip? My understanding is yes. That is part of their platform. Do not engage the protesters. If a reporter asks say it is ridiculous. Todd loves America."

But that wasn't enough for Palin. She dragged out the Big Lies -- secession isn't what the AIP's about, and anyway, Todd wasn't really a member.

"That's not part of their platform and he was only a 'member' bc independent alaskans too often check that 'Alaska Independent' box on voter registrations thinking it just means non partisan. He caught his error when changing our address and checked the right box. I still want it fixed."

"Secession," he wrote to Palin. "It is their entire reason for existence. A cursory examination of the website shows that the party exists for the purpose of seceding from the union. That is the stated goal on the front page of the web site. Our records indicate that todd was a member for seven years. If this is incorrect then we need to understand the discrepancy. The statement you are suggesting be released would be innaccurate. The innaccuracy would bring greater media attention to this matter and be a distraction. According to your staff there have been no media inquiries into this and you received no questions about it during your interviews. If you are asked about it you should smile and say many alaskans who love their country join the party because it speeks to a tradition of political independence. Todd loves his country.

"We will not put out a statement and inflame this and create a situation where john has to adress this."

I guess truth is all in who you ask. Just don't ask Palin. You see, it is things like this that will keep her from ever being elected. But I do hope she runs anyway. It will be a hoot!

Walked away from a position ...elected to...right? I guess it was OK for Hil Clinton (who ran for pres after telling everyone in NY last senatorial election that she was not going to run for pres, but serve as NY senator); Kathleen Sibelius;Eliot Spitzer (another dem, walked while being chased); Joe Biden (to run for VP); Barack Obama...served 2 of his 6 year senate term, then spent the next 2 years neglecting his job and running for pres.

Double standard, anyone?

Yeah how about Kathleen Sibelius who was also the biggest fan of Tiller the Baby Killer...

Liberals have alwasy been fickle hypocrits it is in their nature....

Think about for a min..... TO BE LIBERAL IS TO BE A HYPOCRIT AND ADMIT IT!!!

Thats why they always get away with things they have NO STANDARDS AND NO MORALS!!!

How else do you think Obama got elected...

I mean Obama supported INFANTICIDE WHILE SENATOR FROM ILLIONIS!!!

And his Resume was so thin he never even managed a single person at any job he had....

What did he do? Obama indoctrined and brainwashed legions of children into Anti American Radicals AND LEFT CHICAGO A HELL HOLE!!!

Has anyone paid attention to the news out of Chicago lately THE CITY IS COSUMED BY AL CAPONE ERA GANGLAND VIOLENCE!!

Yet the only news outlet I have seen even mention this FACT IS CNN!!!

Obama did such a great job Organzing Chicagon and empowering people!!!!

Empowering then to what I ask???

SELL CRACK AND SHOOT THEIR NEIGHBOR!!!

Sarah Palin on the other hand had a long Resume of Success in BOTH THE PRIVATE AND PUBLIC SECTOR!!!

As a business owner and EXECUTIVE IN GOVERNMENT!!!

Obama on the other hand HAD NO EXECUTIVE EXPERIENCE ON ANY LEVEL ...

Untill he was sworn in as president !!!

Palin to this day is far more qualified to be PRESIDENT

Than OBAMA, MCCAIN OR BIDEN

Every one of them is a career politician and HAVE NEVER BEEN AN EXECUTIVE!!!

SHE HAS RAN COMPANIES, BEEN MAYOR AND GOVERNOR

You nutty right will be eating your words. Palin was under MULTIPLE investigations. I wonder why she quit? Bringing up Obama shows how desperate the right is when their canidates screw up. Ensign and Sanford cheated and stole but I guess the right loves a cheater.

Mr Allan Nichols, Very well said. As for pddoc, and all other liberals. You need to shut up immediately about the Sanford issue. While Clinton was porking his whores right in the White House, you all told us it was his personal life and none of our business. It's only obvious that Mrs Palin was under investigation. She is a republican, a real threat to the leftist liberal machine, and it is typical of the liberal smear tactics. They tried it on President Bush, and Dan Blabber lost his public life over it. And, I can assure you that quite a few folks will never watch Letterman again as well.

It's very simple......she has no political office that she has to answer to. Unlike Obama..she won't be beholding to no one. Obama owes and owes and owes...so it's off to the office he goes. She'll be able to do a whole lot more because she's no longer governor.

Vulcan, something is wrong when there are more minorities than the majority. Doesn't that then make them the majority? Oh, we couldn't have that, then they couldn't scream and holler to get their way about everything done wrong to them.

Maybe so...but I can't see how quiting as Governor of Alaska is going to earn her points as a presidential candidate...it certainly wouldn't make me want to vote for her. I can hear it now...

"I've been President for one year now, and everyone knows that a president does his/her best work in their first year. Since I'm not running for re-election, I think I'll just resign now...it's what's best for the American people..."

That is a cute little speech there realist. I hope to hear Obie read it from his teleprompter soon.

Amen brother.

If she's campaigning 24/7 and has the intelligence to step down so she's not misusing her position, that puts her head and shoulders above the jackass in the oval office who is still campaigning 24/7 instead of doing the job he bought.

At what point are the democrats going to wake up and realize that he's throwing feces all over them daily? Right now they are slurping it up like chocolate, but surely someone will realize it just doesn't taste right...

JB, please tell me you can come up with something slightly less distasteful in terms of analogies. I don't respond or react well to gutteral or juvenile slang and speech patterns.

You do realize that not only Democrats voted for President Obama, don't you? You do realize that a number of Independents voted for him, and numerous Republicans disgusted in their own party's prior 8 year debacle AND the 2008 candidates, jumped the fence to vote for President Obama, don't you? If you do not, then there may be some relative value in taking time to do a little research on the election and the vote breakdown. You can look at blue vs. red states and see where the Republicans lost in areas heretofore stamped as Republican strongholds. It's very interesting and learning is fun.

I would also suggest some remedial English and literature classes that don't involve Playboy, Hustler and other rag mags of that nature. Where else could you have come up with the perverse concept of "throwing feces"? Sounds like one of those quasi-hedonistic films that was filmed in someones garage or basement. "Feces" and "slurping it up". . .simply juvenile, sub-mental and absolutely unnecessary vulgarity. Increase your word power, son, and get out of the gutter your crawling around in and/or that you call home.

Truth is Alaska is not doing as well as she claimed and maybe dumping it is the way for her to go. Or there may be other reasons like she just paid back money she falsely claimed as travel expenses for her children and that may be impeachable unless she cut a deal. The GOP is run by Neo COns any way and they will choose their party's nominee.

Alaska is doing better than the rest of the US. How are things going in Illinois? Chicago?

blue,

Do you not have to go to work and support people who steal like Ensign, Sanford and Palin?

Logdump: Truth is Alaska is not doing as well as she claimed and maybe dumping it is the way for her to go.

Really? Well even the people in Alaska that may or may not be unemployed are still getting that extra $1500 a month that she fought for (tax free). How's that stimulus package working for you that Obama is providing? Ha ha Yeah buddy howdy...Obama's just brilliant..isn't he? Ha, ha, ha

pddoc

Do you not have to go to work and support people who steal like Obama and his cabinet of tax cheats? How about Barney Frank and Chris Dodd. Oh yeah, they just took campaign contributions from fannie/freddie. Like Obama. Get real.

Wait wait wait Mary-268849 I believe you're thinking of the Alaska State Dividend that we get ONCE a year, the amount is determined by how much our state made from oil and natrual gas that year. And we still pay taxes smarty pants.

P.S. Sarah turned down the stimulius package for our state.

Palin didn't quit. She recentered and is ready to reaproach. That is what happens when you fail and try to enter the game again.

It happens with many winners

Yeah, like Richard Nixon and that turned out so well.

Rev G:

What part of "I'm resigning" did you not understand?

I think REV G has a promising future in political spin. Exactly what is she going to reapproach...making a lot of money. Her news conferance was pathetic and anyone who thinks she has a future in national politics is delusional.

I have to agree with you -there is more to this story.
She resigned to run away from more tales to be told-more scandal most likely...
Do we really want a presidential candidate that can't even finish a Governors term ? A President that hunts and kills defenseless animals from a helicopter-that is her mentality-her kind of sportsmanship.  Her lies will fit well with the rest of her
Republican cronies-uhhhh maybe not-there are allot of repub's that do not like her
either. What about her outright lying about the "Bridge to no where", that is just the tip of an Alaskan Iceberg ?? She should become a CEO for an Oil or Gas company..........
Sarah Palin is a bridge to no where

Flordia,What Lies?? You must mean Obama and his lies,No Pork,No Lobbyists,an Ethical Administration,Transparency....Palin tells the truth thats what scares the Liberals and the Mainstream media so bad....Even you lie ,Sara never said she hunted from a helicopter,Senator Stevenson was behind the bridge to nowhere not Sara Palin...I wish to hell you Bed wetters would do a little research and stop drinking the koolaid the mainstream media is giving you.

Yes, it's much better to quit the job halfway through instead of getting the job and not showing up for the entire tenure like Obama did with his Senate career. How many times did he vote present again? Somebody want to throw those numbers out.

Also, since that moronic blogger and the news guy in Alaska kept filing charges against her that were ultimately dismissed, maybe she was tired of spending hundreds of thousands of dollars and time away from the family and job to defend herself.

Maybe because @!$%#s like Letterman, the scarface from SNL and everyone in the main stream media haven't ceased in tormenting her family for the last 8 months, she yelled uncle. I think maybe I would have.

I truly love the left who delight in other people's problems or downfalls and ridicule them for having values and failing in their quest to uphold them. Everyone is a sinner and all you can do is pick yourself up, dust yourself off and move on and hopefully do better next time.

I guess the logic of the left is, hey if you have no morals or ethics you most certainly can't be accused of any wrongdoing. Maybe that explains why none of the ethics violations commited by the slew of Democrats over the last couple of years aren't being investigated. No morals = no guilt. That's why the Democratic party is overflowing with losers, welfare cheats, elitists, morons, idiots, thieves, Barney Frank and Chris Dodd.

I don't think you should generalize about the left delighting in, and I quote, "people's problems or downfalls and ridicule them for having values and failing in their quest to uphold them". All parties engage in it and no one has a monopoly on mudslinging. And by the way you do pretty well mudslinging yourself suggesting the left has no morals or ethics. Who made you the moral barometer for the democrats? One thing the media does punish is hypocrites. Thats why Mark Sanford (the Republican God Fearing Governor of South Carolina) is being skewed on a daily basis.

And just for the record, not everyone is a sinner!

Did not Obama walk away from his Senate seat to run for President? Sounds like he quit also. Not that it would have mattered for mr. vote "present". The difference is he kept his paycheck while campaigning. Same for McCain.

Boy you picked a bad moniker LOL If you do not know what a present vote means.

She already has the GOP

rrobeson, You ask for it, now you get it. Your specific question was, " Name the last presidential candidate that quit halfway through their first term in a major office just to run for president? Anyone? Anyone?" It was your idiot president, Obama. He was at the two year mark of his six year term as IL senator. Oh wait, you said "halfway", so I guess that makes me wrong again. Hillary did exactly the same thing after assuring the people of NY publicly while campaigning, that she would not run for president. Is that not the epitome of a lie?

jacq24 - isn't it funny that the media never digs up anything on Obama ? Oh !! You probably think HE is just wonderful !!

You don't happen to work for NBC or TNYT do you ?

The only thing I seem to agree with you on is Palin does NOT have a future in politics.

Don't you watch FOX. They claim to be part of the mainstream media. If they can't find anything factual to bash President Obama with they make it up. Murdoch does not want to be fettered by facts.

The democrats are the neo commies now.

Well said Joe. I agree completely. The hypocracy of both parties AND the media makes me ill.

her knowledge of foreign affairs etc is no less than that of Obama's when he was running for office.

You need to go back and read something about both of these people.

thank you, joe. ...obama had all of 143 days experience before he was elected. it shows.

Joe Sixpack... how many territories does the United States have? Only count the incorporated and inhabited ones. No need to count the unincorporated or uninhabited that are also territories.

Obama obviously knew this, as any president, or presidential candidate should know, and as many others also know.... learned it in elementry school. Some are no longer incorporated such as the Panama Canal, etc.

Hey Joe, can I call you Joe? Did you take your name from Sarah baby? Do you really have a six pack? Or do you just strut around with a six pack palmed in your hand, while drinking beer in public?

Maybe you are a plumber. Like that other Joe. Hear he is writing a book or running for office also. Maybe he will be Sarah's VP. Since she probably can't appoint the "first dude". First dude would have to change his name to "second dude" he probably wouldn't like that second part.

Too bad a Harvard Grad ,does not know there is no such thing as a hypoallegenic dog, all dogs have allegens.Obama visited 57 states too bad he forgot the Number of states, Unless he was talking about the Muslim states,they have 57.Have you seen his degree or his birth certificate?

way to go joe good post,

stormerF - Actually, a Harvard grad is someone who graduated from Harvard College. Obama is a Harvard Law School grad. And, as many posters on this site know, Obama's class at Harvard Law School was composed of 25% minority representation, and about 70% received degrees with honors. Editor of the Harvard Law Review was a position to which he was voted by his fellow students in a political contest.

To easydoesit---sorry...I attended public school. They only told me about 50 states and the territories of Guam, US Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico. But I guess that's what I get for going to a public school.

To azmomma-1: wow---why the insults? Can't attack my points so might as well attack me. Typical partisan. How small. tsk tsk.

Joe you have a problem with reality if you believe half of what you just posted.

G'nite, logdump. Sleep well.

You would think someone that graduated from harvard could count. I am already sick of the democrats ratchteing this country into a third world country. I want my country and its prosperity back. The Democrats have already been in office to long. Mitt and Sarah would straighten this country out and get its moter running instead of ruining this country.

Bartmann, Americans got over that delusion over the past eight years!. Notice, that the news is far duller than it was when Bush was President. This guy's running the country like a CEO. Things are slowly turning around. To everyone but the truest haters he has proven that he has a level and calm head. I trust him him to take his time to make the right decisions. Sarah Palin just signed the death certificate of the GOP.

She's sure a lot smarter and more noble than the man who is president now..and she has Truth on her side...

Obama is not running this country...LOL If you think that, then you deserve everything the "Commander in Training" shovels out.

He was..and still is...nothing more than a community organizer, right out of the slimepit of Chicago politics.

Bartman,

She is smarter than Obama. You betcha!! Need I say more?

Dear Susie Stinton,

Pull your head out of your rear end. Smarter than Obama ? This broad is dumber than a box of rocks and obviously you're not the sharpest tool in the shed either. You really have some nerve making a statement like that. On second though... stick your head back in the sand or crawl back under that rock you slithered out from under. The world certainly doesn't need any more ignorant citizens. We've got enough Republitards running around. Sarah Palin wouldn't know the TRUTH if it fell on her like a ton of bricks. She is the consumate pathological lying hypocrite. To show your "admiration" for such a disgrace to the human race and especially to women everywhere , doesn't speak much for your values or intelligence or lack thereof.

Vulcan One

"I trust him him to take his time to make the right decisions."

Yes, I see your point. It's being worn on your head. You have to pass cap and trade, the stimulus package, the takeover of private banking and industry, health care reform and the bail outs right now, before anyone can read them. Before anyone can think about it. Before anyone can notice that unemployment is going through the roof. Before anyone sees that our soldiers are returning to recession and unemployment. NOW, NOW, NOW!

That's quite a load of Obamanure you're spreading. Didn't hurt your back or get a hernia did you?

What planet are Vulcans from? A rock will be able to beat him in 2012 are the rate he is @!$%#ing up.

OB has to be following instructions - whoever that might be. Someone, a Socialist with lots of money, the inputer of tele-promptor information. I believe its all scripted folks and we're all going to be hurt from the tailspinning tactics of this Administration. All presented in a manner that sounds to be helpful to cover up the end results, the end of America as we know it. Don't forget, B. Clinton said that during his inauguration speech "for as long as America exists". What he meant by that is being implemented by this chump. Don't you see it? Now the Feds want to buy all of California parks, more government take over - in the form of bail out (helping the cause), phooey! There are other means.

Vulcan - what kind of crack are you smokin? Can I have some. You say he's running the government like a CEO, are you @!$%#ting me? The country's turning around? Again I say are your @!$%#ting me? When Hillary Clinton has to tell you to grow a pair of balls with Iran you're a f'n idiot. He's running in every direction spinning his wheels and spending our future like there's no tomorrow. Luckily for him there won't be a tomorrow, so he won't be called on it someday. I'll take GW's 463 billion deficit over the CBO's numbers for Obama's this year at 1.75 trillion anyday. Most of GW's deficit came over prescription drugs for medicare.

And know we're going to screw up healthcare so he can get votes from those what seems to be a relatively low number of people who don't have it. Medicare has an unfunded liability of 36 gazillion dollars and you want the Government to run healthcare too, oh I'm sorry, it'd be run like a business - like - GM perhaps? Good call.

Actually, I prefer a president who doesn't think he is smarter than everyone else; especially when he is an idiot.

Running the country like a CEO? Hahahahahahahaha. This man has never even had an entry level job.

I can smell the right wing fear through my computer from their anti Obama posts. He is the rights worst nightmare. A very intelligent man from the street with no obligations to the fat cats. Dream on losers he will be with us for a while yet.

He is freedoms worst nightmare.

Sarah is alot smarter then most of the posters I see here at least she can count in blue ink. If thats not important to you that is all the proof needed. I would rather here you betcha then the being ratcheted into the third world nation the democrats are drilling this country into.

gemini, You have to be one of the most idiotic retards that have posted here. Let me define a pathological lying hypocrite. Hillary publicly promised the people of NY while campaigning for her senate seat, that she would not run for president. Now, with that said, your last sentence fits perfectly. And I quote, "To show your "admiration" for such a disgrace to the human race and especially to women everywhere , doesn't speak much for your values or intelligence or lack thereof." One last thing. Can you please tell me what "On second though...", means?

Maybe not...but she's at least smarter than Obama and especially that idiot, Joe Biden.....hands down

Another one who thinks that everything must either agree with them or it is totally biased. Huh?

Truth with a capital T. Oh boy.

Bartman, I would guess you would say the same Susie did only about Fox News right?

Susie Stinson:

You shouldn't believe those anonymous e-mails you've been receiving...Obama DID provide a birth certificate...

So, you're okay with a president who is going to quit when things aren't going their way?

If Obama provided a birth certificate and why are his team of lawyers having every inquiry into the "birth certificate" blocked in court? Wouldn't it be easier to just produce it and put and end to the speculation. I suspect that if his birth records were produced they would show that he was born in Kenya, like his paternal grandmother has said.

Being a quitter isn't making a positive difference in America- it's abandoning your post and responsibilities.

You would have to be out of your mind to think she would do well in an even higher government position when she can't even stick this one out.

bluecollarblogger-

Why would there be a birth announcement for the Hawaii hospital if he were born in Kenya? Did they time travel back in preparation for his presidency?

Seriously man, use some common sense.

I agree, Susie, except for the part about being surprised that is was allowed to be published. Gotta consider the source, don't forget. :)

Amazing how Sara Palin scares the hell out of the Bed wetters even when she is stepping down?To bad the mainstream media does not want to publish the truth.Obama has very little experience and Sara Palin has more executive experience than Obama and Biden put together...Why are you liberal Democrats so Afraid of Sara Palin?

No Mr. Obama did not provide a birth certificate. The birth certificate he displayed on his website, that supposedly was checked by factcheck.org was a fake. Also factcheck.org is funded by the Annenberg Challenge whom Mr. Obama worked for with the wonderful Bill Ayers. The State of Hawaii has said that there is a birth certificate on file in the state. However the State of Hawaii allows people who aren't born there and reside there file a birth certificate with the state, but not necessarily showing that they were born there. Also why would someone spend millions of dollars to avoid releasing things like, passports, college transcripts, birth certificates, medical records, etc.

The MSM jumped on the fact that McCain was born in Panama because he parents were stationed there, he is an natural born American Citizen, but no one in the MSM even breathed a word about Obama's citizenship status.

With regard to the birth announcement for an Hawaiian hospital, there was none. His half sister said he was born in one hospital, but then later said it was the other hospital in Hawaii. Apparently she didn't know where he was born.

Jamiestitcher-

Fake certificate? Where's the hard evidence for that? There's none.

No birth announcement? It was posted in two Hawaii newspapers back in 1961.

Rather than continue babbling internet stories just provide the hard evidence- that's all you need to do. Otherwise don't waste people's time.

StormerF,

It's people that blindly follow someone like Sarah Palin that scare me. And yes, the same can be said for Obama supporters as well. Democrat or Republican, it doesn't matter.

Anytime a person can be selectively blind to the short-comings of their chosen candidate, and only find the short-comings in their rivals, it sends a message to others that there is either a limited intellect, an extreme prejudice, or a blind allegiance to their chosen party.

I vote as an independent and I didn't vote for McCain, primarily because of Sarah Palin. I couldn't get past her lack of knowledge in current world events. That's what is so scary about Sarah Palin followers, to voters like myself. You paint those who didn't vote for McCain/Palin into your little box of "running scared liberals" instead of seeing the other side, that she may of seriously lacked the intellect to have been VP.

realist: where is the birth certificate...please produce it for us.

DSVet...are you running cover for Obama? NO birth certificate shown yet. You talk about facts, about hard evidence, so OK...YOU produce that one little fact, the birth certificate, for all of us. Or keep on drinking the Kool-Aid and boasting unsubstantiated and incorrect information.

And, BTW, as many know...some of Obama's relatives have said that he was born in Kenya.

When you are standing in a bread line like the old days of Russia , you will be saying " Oh how I wish I had voted for Sara when I had the chance".

Some sheep still neeed schooling, instead of getting their "facts" from Rush and other right wing nuts.

If Obama was truly born outside the US or it's territories, the GOP and Hilary's campaign people would've used it to keep Obama from running for Pres. Do you really believe Obama's opponents didn't investigate him? If the GOP found nothing, and couldn't even invent something to disqualify him, then I highly doubt any 3rd party/rightwingers have any REAL evidence of anything wrong with Obama's election.

End of story. No need to keep believing the hype.

Susan,

How can you be so convinced that she would of *saved us* from bread lines? Our country is in such bad shape from wars, wall street fiasco's affecting everything from plummeting 401K's and home values, to the federal reserve, and to top it off our Congressmen selling us down the creek.

You can't possibly believe that this one woman could save us, do you?

I ask you this question not to be rude or condescending, but I'm actually curious to know what it is that makes you believe in her so much?

I can see her appeal as a no nonsense, straight from the hip talker. However do you balance that appeal with her lack of intellect? Like for example, her ridiculous notion to Katie Couric that being the Gov. of Alaska gives her foreign diplomacy experience because Putin flies into Alaska's air space.

I DONT KNOW WHY I EVEN ANSWER MORONS WHO ARE STILL ON THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE THING.

No Mr. Obama did not provide a birth certificate.

Of course he did. Wake up you do not receive your original birth records those are kept by the state. You are issued a certificate of live borth which is what he posted on his web site and which was later verified to be the actual document provided by the State of Hawaii. Also a quick web seach would easily find the birth announcement in the Hawaiian paper dated on the same day he was born.

The birth certificate he displayed on his website, that supposedly was checked by factcheck.org was a fake.

An outright lie as stated above it has been documented by his state of birth.

Also factcheck.org is funded by the Annenberg Challenge whom Mr. Obama worked for with the wonderful Bill Ayers.

The annenberg Challenge has nothing to do with factcheck. The annenberg Foundation does. The annenberg Challenge was a Chicago public school reform project from 1995 to 2001 that worked with half of Chicago's public schools and was funded by a $49.2 million, 2-to-1 matching challenge grant over five years from the Annenberg Foundation.

The Annenberg Foundation was founded by Walter Annenberg Richard Nixons Ambassador to Great Briton. While the foundation does work with schools and minority venues the people on the borad still support Conservative Republicans.

Obama was elected to the founding board of directors

Ayers was one of three people who wrote the winning proposal for the project.

If Obama has a birth certificate, why not produce it?

Obama's birth certificate has been available on the web for the past year.

I thought that after the psycho shot up the museum even the worst of the nuts would give up on this bullsh!t...but I see that they're back.

The normal people need to form a new party and forget about trying to salvage the GOP.

DSVet...are you running cover for Obama? NO birth certificate shown yet. You talk about facts, about hard evidence, so OK...YOU produce that one little fact, the birth certificate, for all of us. Or keep on drinking the Kool-Aid and boasting unsubstantiated and incorrect information.

The evidence has been produced already- even verified by the state. Backed by birth announcements in two newspapers at the time. There's nothing unsubstantiated or incorrect about it.

It's nobody's problem but your own that you refuse to believe it's real. You call it drinking Kool-Aid - I call it your lack of common sense.

LU - what are you claiming to be Obama's birth certificate...where is it on the web? And, so you don't waste time with sheep's wool pulled over your eyes, please don't quote that "certification of live birth," the green thing Obama's people produced to put off the masses. That is not a birth certificate, and it could be obtained by people not born in Hawaii.

People born around the same time have posted real birth certificates..they don't look like this. So - let us know.

And logdump...no, that document is not a birth certificate. Further, the posting in a paper near Honolulu is not from the main paper, nor is it, as you claim, posted on the day he was born, but rather a couple of weeks thereafter. So you are wrong.

Don't waste our time telling us how accurate the hack factcheck and other Obama operatives are. And stop making fun of people who want to know the truth...you, too, LU. Just show us the birth certificate.

Fact Check.org is a non-partisan group.

When the case challenging Obama's birth certificate was thrown out of court 5 months ago I checked both the New York Post and Fox News to see what they would say.

Neither of them even covered the story.

Do you know why neither the New York Post nor Fox News covered the story?

Because it's embarrassing for them to have to admit that their followers are delusional wac jobs.

Part of me wants to believe that it's just political bullsh!t and no one could be this stupid.

But the reality is that there are a lot of people in this country that have mental problems and no ability to process information rationally.

The older I get the more I believe in forced sterilization.

For the good of the Country and the human race these people should not be allowed to reproduce.

That is not a birth certificate, and it could be obtained by people not born in Hawaii.

It's a short form certificate and is considered an official copy. Yes copies can be obtained by those not born in Hawaii, but it'll still say Barack Obama on it. It's not like they can get their own personalized certificate if they weren't born there.

Further, the posting in a paper near Honolulu is not from the main paper, nor is it, as you claim, posted on the day he was born, but rather a couple of weeks thereafter. So you are wrong.

Honestly- what difference does this make?

I am so shocked that anyone can think I use that term loosely the republicans need to fix their image, when the democrats have proven they are criminals.

First they ratchet this country into debt with fanny mae and freddie mac, Then they go on a spending spree of trillions of dollars while they are destroying the economy. If anyone needs to change it is not the republicans but the democrats.

If you truly believe that you have been propagandized into cliff jumping buffaloes. Shake it off and come back with a real brain.

Sarah took red ink in alaska and turned it blue she went on to give a refund to the people that was a surplus not a deficit for our future generations to pay back.

First they ratchet this country into debt with fanny mae and freddie mac, Then they go on a spending spree of trillions of dollars while they are destroying the economy. If anyone needs to change it is not the republicans but the democrats.

By "they" you must mean the government. The rules may have changed with Clinton, but it was George that pushed for even easier housing access in 2002 by practically eliminating down payments with the help of Fannie. Do a search for his HUD speech on June 18, 2002. If you think this mess was solely a Democratic thing then you're sadly mistaken.

Our economy has also been on a downslide for several years- it was even a topic of the 2004 electoral debates. The crisis has been looming for years and went ignored. How many times did George proclaim we were not heading toward a recession? Please. This is a government created problem- not a Democratic or Republican thing. There's plenty of blame to share on both sides.

Simple solution here folks, bring the original birth certificate to court. Oh, it's been lost in the shuffle? I hate when that happens. Obamanure.

Come on Miller, you don't really want her to go away. She is too much fun.

Why are you so afraid of Sarah Palin?

Probably because no one thought we could ever end up with someone as intellectually challenged as W in the presidency and we did. So, you just never know what could happen and believe me, Sarah Palin as president is very scary.

Yeah jacq, but her presidency would make for good SNL skits! 4 more seasons!! YEAH BABY!!

Jacq24

You have a point. She's been plenty amusing and it obviously isn't over til it's over.

Why are you so afraid of Sarah Palin?

Why would anybody be afraid of having Paris Hilton in the White House?

Therein lies your answer.

Bob because she can count in possitive numbers.

Are you serious???!!!! You are worried about some animals being killed, when Obama is funding abortions, not only in the USA, but overseas as well? Get your priorities straight! Hunting animals vs. killing unborn humans..... I KNOW hunting is not even in the same "ballpark." Give me a break.

Skilletbrain...get off your "prolife" soapbox. Disposing of clumps of non-viable cells does not compare to the cold-blooded MURDER of a living, breathing being for the "fun of it". Palin is a frigging WHACKJOB and it seems you are as well. Instead of telling other people what they can and cannot do w/their bodies when you haven't a damned CLUE what their situation is... try doing something CONSTRUCTIVE. Or is that NOT in the religirightwingtard agenda ? You can't even compare the two. It's apples and oranges. I'm so sick of ProLife hypocrites who don't put up their faux ProLife fight when people's sons and daughters are sent off to be slaughtered in vain , not for freedom but for commodities. Justify that. Killing is A OK when it suits YOUR agenda.

manovick, I thought killing animals for food WAS an everyday event. Most of us aren't vegetarians. Unless you are one, you're just letting someone else kill them for you.

Why are you bed wetters so Afraid of Sara Palin.....gemini618 you really are a nut job,hunting is not murder,and who said anything about doing it for fun? You really need to step away from the Obama,and Mainstream media koolaid Bowl,your cup runneth over......Obama's War is on now so what are you going to do about that?106 Billion approved by your bed wetters who were in a hurry to bring the troops home.

I only have one thing to say about intelligence level - Joe Biden.

Why are you bed wetters so Afraid of Sara Palin.....

Bed wetters?

I know it can be hard to come up with a viable defense on here, but going back to the grade school playground is the not the way to do it.

Hey StormerF.... F stand for F off. As far as I'm concerned ALL hunting is MURDER. There is no good reason on EARTH why people have to eat meat. It's called SELF INDULGENCE, it's NOT survival. And I happen to think Obama is going a GREAT job un-f**king up all the things all the previous Republitards screwed up to turn this once great country into the cesspool of political and corporate corruption that it is today. At least he's getting things DONE and making things BETTER. So big deal.. he's not doing it the way YOU want. WAHHH. If W didn't screw things up so badly and leave such a trail of devastation behind him, Obama wouldn't have to play devil's advocate.

Gemini,

Name-calling doesn't work for me. Sorry.

If you want to refer to a baby inside a mother's womb as a clump of cells, you are extremely clueless when it comes to the development of a baby. And just for the sake of argument, even if it were only a clump of cells, as you reference it, that clump of cells eventually develops into an adult.

Last point, a mother does NOT have the right to decide whether or not her unborn child has the right to live. It has nothing to do with her body. In fact, hundreds of women die every year on the abortion room table. They would have lived had they delivered their babies. Abortion does not protect the mother from anything. Regardless of whether the baby was a "mistake" in the mother's eyes, that does not give her the right to end another person's life any more than I have the right to kill another person.

It has nothing to do with her body. In fact, hundreds of women die every year on the abortion room table. They would have lived had they delivered their babies. Abortion does not protect the mother from anything.

Go to the UNICEF website and read up on the facts of maternal deaths:

"Globally, more than half a million women die each year because of complications related to pregnancy and childbirth.."

stormerF....my mother told me a long time ago that "sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me." I've learned in my almost 70 years on this earth that, in a way, she was wrong, words do hurt (witness Palin.) That said, calling people who do not agree with you "bed wetters" reflects on your mentality more than theirs. Give it a break!

I can see that you grew up in a city where you have no idea how it is to live in the real world. There is such a thing as managing you wild life, if you love the little animals as you say then you should know it is much more humane to cull them or to get rid of the excess predators so the rest can have the freedom to live the way they are supposed to. If you dont understand anything other than the area where you live then just be quiet.

So you think Sarah ate the wolves she shot from a helicopter? The Creator put predators on Earth to thin the herd(humans included). Most hunters I know are in it for the "thrill of the kill". It's not like they were starving and had no other food sources. Hunters should either use a spear, knife or bow. Let's make it a little more fair for the animals. Then it can really be called a "sport".

Polar bears are becoming extinct, yet Palin doesn't think it's worthwhile to consider them endangered.

Maybe you also believe that humans co-existed with dinosaurs as well. Palin does too. LOL.

Whoever came up with the bedwetter post gets the mental midget award for the day!

This proves how ill informed Americans really are. Alaska must shoot a certain number of wolfs every year to preserve the number of other species in Alaska. The media owns your brain and your brain is failing its mission.

However that is evident when you defend this administration that is clearly bringing this country into a depression.

furthermore--palin NEVER shot wolves from a helicopter--another "tina-fey " type lie.

But...she probably could!!! By the way...many states have control kills of animals that are over-populating. And it is endorsed by the government. All this crap spewed by the biased news media about the Alaskan wolves, is just that...CRAP!!

I'm NOT a fan of Palin but I gotta say MILLIONS of animals is a serious over statement. I'm pretty sure she wasn't out there helping hold the gun even though she does have a crap load of dead animals on her walls.

P.S. We wouldn't have to have control kills if there weren't do many damn people around. Soooo save a wolf by NOT reproducing. (please please please stop having babies)

"...I think Madonna or Mariah Carey have greater credentials and better developed intellects..."

That, is really scary! Sounds like an Obama voter.

Very true....if this loon thinks that Madonna has more credentials than Palin, no wonder Obama won.

I like Madonna. She has class.

Correct! Extremely low!

This girl has far more knowledge and credentials than Palin will EVER have in her lifetime if she were able to live for eternity. I'd vote for this 13 yr old over that dipstick Palin any day of the week. She is far more eloquent, intelligent, has a far more advanced vocabulary and is someone determined to make REAL change that benefits EVERYONE.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQmz6Rbpnu0

No one cared anything about Obama. They just drank the cool aide and voted. He has to be the dumbest sounding fool with out a telepromptor i have ever heard. And yet the left trashes Palin because they are afraid of her.

White Guilt and black racism elected Barack Obama.

I see some of you like Madonna,and Mariah Carey. One is Trailer trash and the other married a music producer and after years finally sang a song.Oh ya Madonna has cerdentials for someone who parades around in her underwear on stage...Funny how Sara Palin Scares all you bed wetters even when she is stepping down.

The comparison of Palin to Madonna was not meant to be literal.

Politics aside; I have noticed two major differences between the Far-Right and everyone else.

1. Is that they have no comprehension skills.

2. They have no sense of humor.

Why are you wingnuts wetting your beds if terror over Madonna.

LU-404506,

I understood what you wrote, I have a sense of humor, and I think you are hilarious! Tell us more jokes, please! please!

If you want to read jokes go to the blog attached to the first Palin article.

Facts, opinions, or jokes is all that I care to read.

The only difference I need to know between Sarah and Obama is the fact she knows how to count in blue ink.

VAV, there are more important things to worry about than crying over the "greats" that are no longer alive. Life goes on.

VAV--I believe you are on the wrong blog.

JD - They aren't mistakes, they are orchestrated plans to take this country down - FAST. And, we're not loud enought against it.................. and neither are legislators we voted for to uphold our rights under the US Constitution .

I just hope it's not too late, JD.

Bring it on. Obama 2012

We are asleep...rolling down a dark tunnel.. hitting rocks along the way. The rocks we hit don't awaken us, they only knock us into deeper unconsciousness. The tiny voices we hear trying to wake us we discount as pipe-DREAMS so we continue on our way, ignoring any pain from the rocks until finally, when the pain is too great to bear anymore...we finally awaken..to total devastation....

We need to do more..A LOT MORE PEOPLE, to get our body (Our Country) to WAKE THE F**K UP! ..Before it's too late...

Needs you are right these people are asleep ever since the democrats have taken over we have almost 10 percent unemployment our revenues are down over 35 precent and we have lost our first world statues.

The democrats answer is to counterfit our money and force our future generations to pay for it. Our future generations will have no needs they can eat dirt as far as the democrats are concerned.

In the horrifying economy they have created they want to cap and trade so everyone has to pay higher energy costs this will raise the cost of everything in this country and on top of that they want to raise the taxes of the so called rich who make our products that too will raise prices on everything and god knows how many more people will loose their jobs.

Yet they want to cling to the legs of this the most horrifying administration the USA has ever seen.

I want someone who can count in office and Sarah can count IN BLUE INK!

I guess the whole screaming Blue Ink over and over again isn't helping. Maybe you should go with Bed wetters again.

add a nanny nanny bo bo for better effect.

According to her "Lame Duck" theory George Bush should have left office in November of 2004. Hey, maybe she has a point.

Obama needs to leave Now.

I also thought the lame duck excuse was ill placed....of course it could be that she just doesn't understand what the term means...

Palin certainly could have held office for another year before announcing that she didn't want to seek re-election.

When you are spending 80 % of your time fight ing off the left loons that doesnt leave much time to do the business of the state. not to mention the fact that they are spending 2 mil of the state money to fight them, she did the best thing for her state,any fool can see that.

If Bush was able to hold off the "left loons" and still be a functional(ok. maybe not so functional) President, then Sarah could have finished her term.

Instead, she gave up. She just can't hack politics and the public scrutiny that goes with it.

FIghting off the left loons? I know more Republicans who are afraid she will get nominated than I do Democrats. . ... Of course they are true Republicans who actually care about their country......Not the propoganda merchants we deal with here on the vine.

Dream On!! After the ruination route these Dems are on; they will be lucky to get jobs emptying bed pans!!

Ha! Why do you think the Dems keep extending and increasing the unemployment benefits? Hmmm....

Ted Kennedy added language to the Health bill that exempts congress for being forced to use it and what they want to push down our throats.

I love how all of you Republitards whine and moan that someone is actually taking some ACTION and fixing all of Reagan's, GW's and W's F uck ups. If anyone brought this country DOWN it was these 3. These "loose cannons" practically destroyed this country for their own greed and vanity. So, Obama has to play hardball and you don't like it. You're a bunch of spoiled children who want to run free without rules and regulations or consequences to pay for your actions. Well NOW you're paying and it's all your fault so don't blame Obama's "tough love" approach of having to fix the broken government YOUR demagogues left behind in ruins . At least he's not sitting on his a$$, he's taking initiative and getting things done.

You all just can't stand the thought that the candy store is closed for business.

You will be laying the red carpet out for her when Oboma gets done with our country , that is if we still have one when he is done.

The only "red carpet" Palin is ever going to see is that of her local bordello.

Gem you need to go back to school and learn how to count. It has been the democrats all along that have destroyed our country.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMnSp4qEXNM

The Bush Admin and Senator McCain warned repeatedly about Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac and what thus became the 2008 financial crisis -- starting in 2002

Bush is actually a hero he tried to fix it the democrats fought tooth and nail to destroy our country and they are still working hard at destroying it.

What will it take to wake up the cliff jumping buffaloes?

if they started warning about famnnie in 2002, how come they didnt do anything about it? oh ya, the dems didnt control congress until jan 2007, when they took their oaths. from 2001-2007, the republicans controlled congress AND the white house. so no excuse for not fixing a 'democratic' mistake.

how come bush pushed for LESS regulation during his terms as president? know the facts before you start spewing your republican lies.

Obama has done more damage to our country in his first 100 days, than any of the other presidents combined.....he's an idiot....bent on tearing us down. You Demoncrats have to get over yourselves and start paying attention. Forget about party lines....see what's going on here. Obama is destroying our country. I don't know if it's deliberate, vengeful or plain ass stupidity, but he's slowly succeeding.

You said it better than anyone else. Yes, McCain had the vote of this family, and several others known personally. However, when he chose the "Pig in Lipstick," as his running mate.....well, guess what happened here? Exactly as you said. He lost!! Mama didn't get our vote either. We just simply withdrew, and said piss on this!

McCain, himself, lost the election - his platform was as weak as psss and the media did them both in.

McCain was a lost cause before he pick Sara Palin.Funny How Sara Palin still scares hell out you Bed wetters and Mainstream media Koolaid drinkers.

If McCain had picked Romney instead of Palin I think that he would have won the election.

Palin was a bad political move.

McCain didn't need to cater to the far-right, they always vote along party lines.

Picking Palin lost the vote of Conservatives, Intellects, and Independents.

I think the majority of the conservatives are idiots. They don't care about the country. All they care about is wanting to call the shots. It's over for all the thieves and lairs. Wait and see, Palin's own party is coming out with the dirt on her, that 's why she's stepping down. The McCain party covered up her mess now they are going to leak information about the dumb airhead, Serve her right. The party is wasting away. Good bye you right-wing conservatives with your family values and ethics. Bull

I'm sure that 90% of registered Republicans would love for Palin to form her own party and take Rush and the Fox channel with them.

Not only that but countless blue dogs are now afraid of this administration.

People are waking up and weather Sarah runs or not she has some very important things to say.

She after all has run Alaska successfuly. Alaska was in red ink when she took office she went after corruption and took that red ink and turned it blue. That is why they are affraid of her.

sandyshores--the liberals still don't get it--the media lies about sara and her children are all they know--they only listen to tabloids and chris matthews.I have to hand it to letterman--he saw the dumbness of it all and did the right thing--and salvaged his career.

I only voted for McCain because of Palin...McCain lost his maverick approach during the campaign. Palin showed she had more balls than any of them running. McCain was in a slump before Palin came on the scene. That's a fact Jack.

That is how I felt and still feel about that sleazy Obama that got elected. I am actually in the process of buying a house in Panama just because he is so destructive to our nation.

I have been to Panama, you think the crime rate is high here? Good luck and don't let the door hit ya on the way out...

Costa Rica is very nice too. Just buy lots of guns and ammo. You're going to need them. You better pray he stays alive, or all bets are off.

Cannon Look around in Costa Rica, a little better deal I don't blame you, I don't know why Obama though people would just keep on hanging round for more taxes.

It will be fun to watch, he should get down to taxing the "middle class about Jan of 2012, we will be able to hear the squealing from Central America

cannonmama, may I please help you pack your bags? This blog is supposed to be about Palin but some of you insist upon using it to slam Obama and his supporters. Actually, I guess I can understand how you feel, as there are millions of us out here who felt the same way about the nation's last president!

Most get paid to slam Obama. You know the old Republican disinformation machine. They claim Obama is doing a bad job and his approval rating is way above 60%

I hate to tell you but that is a low number Bush had a higher aproval rating and at this point I really don't believe it. NO one can be that dumb only you and a few left wing loons that can't count. Obama and the democrats are causeing a depression. They aren't fixing anything they are printing money we dont have loosing revenues and depleating the job market.

Bye, bye now!!!!!need me to help you pack? Don't let the door hit where the sun don't shine. Parting is such sweet sorrow...with King Hussein in office...I hope there will be a tomorrow.

Probably a few marks higher than those who voted for Obama.

stormerF......you are one angry man. Maybe getting a good night's sleep would help your disposition (?)

They don't stormer because they can't count that should tell you something.

At least she knows how to spell.

I just read some of the blogs from the Fox website.

What we get on this site is just a sliver of the far-right's mental state.

FOx's sight is like reading a manifesto from and insane asylum

Susan..don't listen to these sheeple people. They're scared to death of Palin, and that's all their mentality will allow them to do...throw insults. People behave badly and do strange things when their scared or worried. You Go Girl !!!!

baeballride:

The bailout of the auto industry occured during Bush's watch...as a matter of fact, he took it out of the tarp money after Congress voted down helping them.

No no my friend it started wih Bush but the union shut him down, they thought they could get a better deal from Obama and they were right. That agreement was so illegal, that anyone not in government would be indicted for a felony.

I don't think he's sone with it yet. I suspect he will get to go to court on that one when he is thrown out of office , in 2012

realist ...surely you are not that dumb Congress has to approve all spending,the president just signs the bill,and Obama gave the auto industry Unions the Bailout,not Bush.In Fact Bush refused to sign the 2009 Budget because it contained too much Pork,bur Obama had no problem with it. Just get your facts straight it makes you look like a Obama supported,spouting un truths.

Let's not for get the huge, what did they call those incentive bonus's for those who helped to collapse the stock market.... Hear let me take your retirement fund and flush it..... Oh here's your bonus and thanks taking that out my hands, I just dont know what I would have done with that retirement fund....

Is this what passes for loony left "thinking" ?

How is she going to do that? As a talk show host? We already have Rush Limbaugh and though he purposely distorts the truth, he actually does some work and some research before he does so. Sarah is not exactly known for being a quick study. I can't quite imagine her hosting a talk show of any kind where she had to respond to the news of the day.

Sharonna, you are delusional!!!!

You are not delusional Sharonna! Palin really scares these idiots; doesn't she?

What we are scared of is that this person is out free on the streets....she should be under psychiatric observation for manic depression.

Exactly, Patriot. It's very obvious from reading the article above, that they're scared. All she did was resign, and look at the crap being written already!

Sarah could serve as a model fora group of people disposed to believe that you only deserve, what you earn.

I suspect that type of person makes the supporters of the Democratic Parasitical Party Uncomfortable.

Funny since the mainstream media and liberals told all those lies and inuendos about Sara Palin,she can still scare the hell out of them,by just stepping down....Guess they are afraid of the truth,especially when it comes to Obama,where there is no truth.

The mainstream media lied about Sarah Palin?! You mean she is really highly educated, knowledgeable on foreign affairs, prepared for the white house, and understands the constitution?

SOrry, but I think they got it right. She is no more ready to serve any high office than you or I. A 4 year degree in journalism from Utah (after attending 5 community colleges) , half a governors term, and nice makeup only carries you so far.

Jim is spot on with his observations.

Some in here are just infatuated with Palin. It's hard to see someone's faults when you have a crush on them.

This country is in no way ready for a woman to be President and certainly not Sarah Palin. If I'm not mistaken that just recently proven. Its really sicking to read all the negativity you people write about Obama. If you think you can do better then him get out there and get busy. Nobody is stopping you. Obama can't do any worse then any other president this country has ever had. All you winers and grippers get off your couches and get out there and YOU make a difference in our country.

Exactly....she couldn't do any of that while governor. Her loyalties would have to be with her state. Now she is Sarah Q Citizen.. Better watch out boys....she's coming for you. I bet Obama and his cronies couldn't even sleep last night..LOL

Sh*t,

This Broad aint fit to be a garbage collector.

It did happen during Bushs watch however it was the Democrats that caused it.

The Bush Admin and Senator McCain warned repeatedly about Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac and what thus became the 2008 financial crisis -- starting in 2002 (and actually even earlier

Democrats in their own words Covering up the Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac Scam that caused our Economic Crisis. At a 2004 hearing see Democrat after Democrat covering up and attacking the regulations

See how easy it was to dumb you down and they still are dumbing you down any further down you will be at earthworm status.

yes, the left still does not know the facts--you CAN see russia from alaska. they prefer to believe the tabloids.

Anyone with the slightest bit of geography knowledge knows this....Russia is only 800 miles from Alaska...what complete dolts.

Mary I gotta say you're actually the dolt. Did you even google that answer?

From Nome, Alaska mainland Russia is about 50 miles across the Bering Sea.

From the island of Little Diamead(Alaska) to the island of Big Diamead(Russia) the distance is actually less then 3 miles.

Geography rocks and I still don't agree with you :)
