Seriously, lets think about this — regardless if you are a Palin fan or not. Could you imagine if she didnt speak up. There are crickets all over the United States from our GOP. Where we would we be??? WHat a disaster our party is. I dare them to call and ask me for money. Double dare em
She is not holding a political office, they are a bunch of babies afraid of being beat, makes one sick!
Amen!
The phoney panzies and so called “men” in the GOP are a disgrace.
They have not earned taking over the congress 2010.
Sarah and Bachmann and brewer are the only shining lights lately.
Damn right she has more balls. Pretty sad, too. You’d think all the insiders would have notices which way the wind was blowing by now. They expect us, the base, to do the heavy lifting and for them to benefit. We have to continue to take control and kick the bums out, like they are trying to do in Utah, and they have done in Kentucky.
Exactly. We can win in november but it is the same party that were in power when we had both houses, and the presidency and the dems made up the rules. The GOP has an identity issue. Once they get in power they feel guilty about it and start giving away everything to the dems.
Why is what Barton said not part of the GOP philosophy? Do we believe the President should shake down companies? Who would distribute the $$ better, business or gummit?
Pray for America
RahmEmanuel = as shallow/narrowminded/political/irresponsible as they come,to falsely claim Barton's BP comment is "GOP philosophy"Rahm,u lie
It was a pretty stupid thing to say. A member of the Stupid Party opens his yap & instead of stating the simple fact that Obama’s “requirement” to turn over $20 billion was beyond his constitutional authority, he goes & apoligizes to a company that was obviously taking extreme chances in order to save money.
I wish we (& Sarah) could spend our time & effort defending better congresscritters!
Here is the write up from Daily Caller
The former governor of Alaska is apparently outraged over Emanuel telling ABC’s Jake Tapper on Sunday that Republican Rep. Joe Barton’s apology last week to BP was not a slip of the tongue, but a reflection of the “philosophy” of the Republican Party. (WATCH THE COMMENTS)
“That’s not a political gaffe, those are prepared remarks,” Emanuel said. “That is a philosophy.”
Emanuel added: “They see the aggrieved party here as BP, not the fishermen and the communities down there affected.”
Palin tweeted Sunday afternoon that, “RahmEmanuel= as shallow/narrowminded/political/irresponsible as they come, to falsely claim Barton’s BP comment is ‘GOP philosophy’ Rahm,u lie.” (READ PALIN’S TWITTER FEED)
Barton retracted his “apology” to BP last week after an outcry from both Republicans and Democrats

I love what Barton said, I can’t believe he apologized for it. It was one of the best, clearest statements of reality in a long time. Like “Liar!”
The USA is going downhill fast. It’s up to us. If we just “Remember in November” I’m afraid it won’t be enough — we have to stop apologizing for the truth!
That is what all those endorsement by Palin are trying to correct.
Here’s my take and what you are thinking:

The war against communism did not end in victory in 1991 - it continues and the strongest counteroffensive by the other side so far is putting Obama, Rahm Emanuel, Pelosi, et al. in power over the USA. We are at a grave disadvantage because the enemy realize this is a war, and our side largely don’t. Can’t win if you don’t know you’re in a fight to the death and act accordingly.
Heh. Nice blog.
John Beohner will be worse than Denny Hastert.
He needs to be challenged for leadership!!
Pleasem did you need to use such a crude term to describe the Governor’s remarks?
Pleasem = Please,
Those who have spent their adult life in Washington back biting, performing daily CYA’s and digging up dirt on others as a blood sport have to be cautious in their dealing with others in Washington.
Someone like Sara who dealt directly with people and knows none of that crap can stand tall and defend her position based on facts and not on who you know and what committees they are on.
We need more like her so the best way to do that is get rid of the vermin in DC and only elect honest, straightforward people from our ranks and not from the social elite.
Thanks, the point is why do Repubs go along w/the WH stealing $$ from a corporation? How can they support the gummit passing out the money?
