*The only time he gets anything done is when he follows Bush's policies. that’s gotta stick in your craw.

*Pop quiz genius..Tell me, Why are all the progressive candidates either retiring or getting their ass handed to them in elections?

Just like Snarf I think you've officially jumped the shark too. ( Clapping ) Seriously good luck with all your future posts.

Heh, heh...hey, nothing's sticking in my craw, but I think the shark climbed up inside and is making you hurt real bad. Could it possibly hurt that bad? Cause you, my friend, cannot change History...

I think the real FEAR OF THE TEABAGGERS is that Barack Obama might possibly be one of the Best Presidents in the History of the United States--and that's why they're fighting so hard to cripple his administration.

Yes, deep down they fear that if he could rise to the top--Magna Cum Laude--of the Harvard University Law School--(and every other thing he has attempted) then hey, he may succeed!

There is the TRUE FEAR! Yes, the true fear of MEN WITH SMALL HATEFUL MINDS--Cockroaches!

Climbed up inside and making you hurt real bad.....Wow, literary genius. I dont need to change history. I just pay attention to what really happened and not worship false legends.

The more you post the worse Palin gets and the better Obama gets. Your current path to use a word that describes the current socialist administration is unsustainable.

I have 2 words for his public accomplishments. Affirmative Action. Its my opinion that is another reason Palin is hated so much. She did it on her own.

You keep using that word cockroaches. That tells me you are nothing more than an elitist that has an inflated sense of your intelligence. Cockaroaches? Thats fine, keep using it. You know who will inherit the earth when it all goes to hell right?

i was trying to avoid getting embroiled in the thread again, after realizing that i was getting too sensitive about the topic. but then came the cockroaches thing. i dunno who the teabaggers are, but i do know they are humans. don't you think the entire political discourse could be better handled if both sides refrained from lowering the bar with alot of inappropriate or incorrect comments about each other? i do. i don't think you're a cockroach nor do i think the democrats or republicans are cockroaches. you CAN disagree with someone without resorting to insults. what's even worse is, people like rush limbaugh and now many news reporters are ramping up the insults. just state the facts, leave the insults aside. they really don't need to be in the conversation.

Okay, okay, I might be a kool-aid drinker, but I know stoopid when I see it. And I'll bank on Obama's exceptional education and serious work experience over the scraggly education of Ms. Palin's. I read an article somewhere about they guy she hired in Alaska to do her job--did you catch that article?

You are such a kool-aid drinker. Caught up in the cult of his personality to boot.

thehill.com...

You're not on the right side of unfolding history.

Somehow I don't think Palin will suffer from this problem.

can i fuss at you too? "kool-aid drinker", not only is that inappropriate argument, it's actually taking advantage of a very sad moment in history. wouldn't it better (mwahaha, i'm rhetoric editor!) to simply say that perhaps he's currently overstating his case for Obama and against Palin? I mean, that says the same thing without requiring the insult couched in a public tragedy phrase.

*dons absorption armor* k, have at it.

Why dont you start fussing about being teabagged? Are you OK with it? I've seen it done and people can go either way.

erm.
allow me to rephrase.

it appears we are devaluing our political arena with inappropriate discourse. the words and phrases used to describe one another are geared for breaking down the sense of value normally attributed to human beings. sometimes as a matter of defense and sometimes as a matter of offense. in either case, it lowers the bar entirely too much and creates a sort of social anarchy that i don't think is the correct direction for our nation.

I can't believe you said that!

You gotta be kidding me?

Anyway, did Affirmative Action get this man his greatest accomplishment yet? You know, getting the most votes and becoming the 44th President of The United States?


You guys gotta really be hurting. You gotta get your minds back----get a grip--do something soon--or this thing will consume you.

As far as Ms. Palin's accomplishments in Alaska, she had the best form of Affirmative Action going for her. She had a Native husband who was a Celebrity. You know those little snowmobile races he practices for all year? Well that little race is very big--I mean very "Nascar" up there in Alaska. The First Dude just happens to have serious connections up there and sponsors up the wazoo.

Yes, the First Dude is very "connected" in Alaska. As a Native, he enjoys the best of both worlds. That's why he was running around brokering government deals up there. Some say he was really the shadow Governor.

Unfortunately, the Palins have omitted the First Dude's sponsorship information ($$$) from their tax forms for years--many years (just like it didn't exist) and there is an investigation brewing--it's all over the Alaskan blogs. This will probably explode onto the national media soon. And that will be in addition to all the other investigations going on...

Stay tuned...

I said it, its obvious.

I'm not kidding.

I can see you recognise that you're starting to sound like a broken record because you're now turning your big brain toward Todd Palin. Whos next in the family?

"I have 2 words for his public accomplishments. Affirmative Action. Its my opinion that is another reason Palin is hated so much. She did it on her own."

Yes... minority candidates get extra votes assigned to them when they run for office because of their race.

He ran for president and won.
I know that upsets you but you can always drink a lot.

But you're right about Palin... she did it all herself.
Well... except for a little help from a desperate presidential candidate that wanted to grab the female vote because he knew the minority vote was already taken, so he chose an unknown that turned out to be an airhead and cost him his last shot at the White House, lol.

Okay, this is the reading comprehension part. Go back and read that post again. In one paragraph, I describe cockroaches who say no (no vote) and then in the next paragraph I change the wording and speak about teabags. I believe that two different paragraphs should not be "melded" into one thought. These are different thoughts.

I didn't say the teabaggers were cockroaaches, I said that the gang who is organized to deliberately say no to everything are cockroaches.

Can you see that there are two different thoughts there, since it's two different paragraphs?

That is, unless your eyes are tired, or you want to have something to rail about?

Hey, I'm feisty enough, and outspoken about my own opinions...please don't fabricate things that you "think" I have said.

Well, thank you Princess! I'm not a he, I'm a she, but I can "wrestle with the boys" without continuing to shout "hey wait, I'm a girl!".

You know, Palin reminds me of the girl who goes around the schoolyard talking smack and then cries and goes to get her mommy when she gets a smackdown. I have seen Obama take a lot of crap from people who don't support him--and the only time he got ticked off was during the campaign when he told the media that his family is off limits.

I respect that.

For Ms. Palin, there is whining all the time, from her and her supporters--and it's nonstop. The very "pundits" she once despised are now her colleagues. And, oh boy, she has a tongue like a serpent. How blind are some of us that we don't see that?

All her speeches are full of insults, yet no one should say anything untoward about her or her policies?

Not fair!

Sorry, but I like the Guy With The Good Manners...

True sign of an elitist. Its insulting to disagree with one because they are just so smart.

Sure, say all you want about her policies. Its American to disagree and speak out. However, I cant see where you've stated one truth about her this whole thread.

If she really was so insulting would she be here?
latimesblogs.latimes.com...

Does she have the experience to stop this from happening here?
www.slate.com...
Not sure. I think Obama may usher it in though.

I hate her because she won't return my calls or be my friend on Facebook!

I think the bottom line is that Liberals hate her because she does not support abortion. This seems to be the ultimate litmus test for them.

Many Conservatives don't like her because they don't see her as a winning candidate.

It is just too bad that people allow political ideology to play such an important role in their lives. The Palins seem like good folks that I would invite to a BBQ.

I was blocked from her facebook page...LOL. And all I did was ask (repeatedly) WHY her supports support her....and I couldn't get an answer.


Maybe I could get an answer here...why do you guys support her? Is it because she supported the bank bailouts that somehow she is against now?



But anyway...I don't hate her...I think she is hilarious


Come on...you don't think she is a viable candidate for anything besides a Fox News anchor...do you?

I think she is immanently more qualified than Obama, but still not qualified to be President.

I wouldn't vote for either of them.

Thats the best way to silence the truth.

Put a censor label over its mouth.

You should screen shot the banned page when you try accessing it or whatever and make that your ATS avatar

I'd print it out and frame it so i could hang it up in my office, because i'd be proud as hell knowing i got to Sarah Palins dumb ass so bad.

reply to post by Thirty_Foot_Smurf


you seem to be the king of tit for tat when it comes to Sarah Palin

but i have yet to see you post one legitimate thing that she's done (other than play the flute in Jr. High School)

just because Obama is a dip, doesn't justify supporting an idiot like Sarah Palin

Here are some of her Accomplishments.
www.freerepublic.com... THis was dated Sept 3 2008

Governor Sarah Palin made history on Dec. 4, 2006, when she took office. As the 11th governor of Alaska, she is the first woman to hold the office.

Since taking office, her top priorities have been resource development, education and workforce development, public health and safety, and transportation and infrastructure development.

Under her leadership, Alaska invested $5 billion in state savings, overhauled education funding, and implemented the Senior Benefits Program that provides support for low-income older Alaskans. She created Alaska’s Petroleum Systems Integrity Office to provide oversight and maintenance of oil and gas equipment, facilities and infrastructure, and the Climate Change Subcabinet to prepare a climate change strategy for Alaska.

During her first legislative session, Governor Palin’s administration passed two major pieces of legislation - an overhaul of the state’s ethics laws and a competitive process to construct a gas pipeline.

Governor Palin is chair of the Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission, a multi-state government agency that promotes the conservation and efficient recovery of domestic oil and natural gas resources while protecting health, safety and the environment. She was recently named chair of the National Governors Association (NGA) Natural Resources Committee, which is charged with pursuing legislation to ensure state needs are considered as federal policy is formulated in the areas of agriculture, energy, environmental protection and natural resource management. Prior to being named to this position, she served as co-chair of this committee.

Prior to her election as governor, Palin served two terms on the Wasilla City Council and two terms as the mayor/manager of Wasilla. During her tenure, she reduced property tax levels while increasing services and made Wasilla a business friendly environment, drawing in new industry.

She has served as chair of the Alaska Conservation Commission, which regulates Alaska’s most valuable non-renewable resources: oil and gas. She was elected by her peers to serve as president of the Alaska Conference of Mayors. In this role, she worked with local, state and federal officials to promote solutions to the needs of Alaska’s communities.

Here is another site that list several of her accomplishments before and after she became Governor.
ehvogel.blogspot.com...

Then you can go to Fact Check and find more. I don't think she is qualified to lead this country, but as I stated previously, neither is Obama!

I can't help but feel that if Palin had been a Democrat & Pro Abortion, the tables would be completely turned.

The Democrats would be hailing her as the greatest thing since sliced bread, while the Republicans would be doing exactly what the Democrats are doing now.

This whole game is so predictable and tiresome.

sadly, it's easier to be good mannered when you're on top. no one is particularly fond of being a loser (read this whole thing before you respond). i think women have grown exceedingly tired of being told two different things at once, and expecting to be able to tell, by osmosis or something, which thing is actually true or which point is the one she's expected to embrace as a liberated woman.

i suspect the real dilemma is couched in the new trend, as i said before. there's 2 things at work: 1) to silence women until such time as it can be determined which ladies should have a right to be heard and 2) use race, political party and religion (or the lack thereof) as the litmus test for #1.

this artificially creates the impression that one side has all the smart ladies and the other side has nothing but barbie dolls who don't need to be anywhere near the nuclear button. because even if barbie goes to college and becomes dr. barbie, she's still not qualified on the grounds that people on the "traditional" side of politics (which is how the media has packaged the republican party - - as bass ackwards, old school, good old boys club that hates women) have only bubble headed females in it.
