"This is not a man who sees America as you see it and as I see America," Palin said today. "We see America as the greatest force for good in this world. If we can be that beacon of light and hope for others who seek freedom and democracy and can live in a country that would allow intolerance in the equal rights that again our military men and women fight for and die for, for all of us."
She then continued, "Our opponent though is someone who sees America, it seems, as being so imperfect that he's palling around with terrorists who would target their own country."

Well the MSM isn’t ignoring her comment...but they are trying to discredit it. It says Obama and Ayers weren’t ‘close’....good grief. I hope she keeps it up though. And I hope she goes further - Jeremiah, birth cert, Pakistan vacation....all of it. She is perfect for this - they can’t ignore her...and maybe, just maybe, somebody will ask O to ‘splain himelf. I also like going back to the strategy of attacking O and ignoring Biden. Biden, as goofy as he is, has ‘gravitas’ with the media...marginalize him and attack Obama.
Nice observation. Simple and direct.
Maybe, just maybe, the counterattack has begun.

Hope you’re right. If McCain doesn’t wake up he’s finished. I’m sure some of his passive behavior is trying to keep his image as one able to cross party lines and not be partisan but for crying loud the Dems are slaughtering him right now with lies. He needs to unleash Palin and start defending himself. If he doesn’t he’s toast.
Maybe you’re right, but she’ll come back kicking and screaming because AMerica let her down....and she loves her family and Alaska more...and I don’t blame her..
I agree, she’s the first person who has ignited me from either party since Reagan...
Reagan should have been our candidate in 1976. I don’t know how old he was then, but he was extremely aggressive...
McCain compared to him NOW is like a powder puff...
I remember the look in his eye... You would “never” make the statements about him that Biden said of McCAin in the Palin debate and not get reemed...They would never go unanswered...
In the next town hall debate....McCAin better put on his best flack jacket...and not let that two bit...shadow of a man Obama interrupt him...when he tells Obama that he voted against the troops, for higher taxes...abortion on demand...etc etc etc..
Has McCain come out and rebutted the BS that Biden spewed? NO!!!! Unless someone has heard otherwise....Let me know...
I’m having ulcers here. I’m on BP meds because of this....I broke up with my favorite girl because of this...I’m not myself....
It’s because I’m frustrated and upset...
Give me the mike...Let me debate Obama!!!!!
WHat is wrong with our party?
Please, Sarah...Get out there and kick some @ss!!!!! No ONE, Honey...NO ONE expects you to win...so kick some @ss!!!!
YOU HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111
I knew someone would turn play that video to that song. Too easy.
Which makes me immediately think of his fainting, mesmerized crowds and cult-like following.
Obama wants a Cultural Revolution in much the same way that Chairman Mao did. And for much the same reasons. Mao needed the people to break with the old ways and old traditions, and lead the people into a period of absolute madness to do so.
While I don't think our dimestore Dear Leader has any chance of pulling it off on the same level, the intent and similarities are ... unfortunate.
> Like saying “I want to GIVE BACK” it is just such a liberal phrase, not that the meaning is wrong. Maybe it’s just me.
It ain’t just you, mate. “Give Back” gets up my nose majorly, too. “Contribute” is a much better way to say it.
LibSpeak makes me dry-retch.
When Barack Hussein Obama, Jr., the charismatic, messianic Magic, um, Mulatto, was eight, he was enrolled in a madrassah in Indonesia. So he could not have been well acquainted with William Charles Ayers, alleged bomber of the Pentagon, at that time. But he HAS become acquainted since then, and surely, Bill Ayers has not forgotten the adrenalin rush of those glory days, and being the egotist he is, would have communicated this enthusiasm to a young and eager acolyte, a convert to the doctrine of reflexive hatred for the “establishment”. While this would not have displaced the youthful exposure to the wider joys of Islam, it would certainly have built upon certain aspects of that ideology.
How can something be torn down so easily, if their entire foundation is NOT built upon a total sham?
He also said Ayers is a distinguished scholar

And this is so easy to counter but they aren’t. Why?????
I don’t understand McCain’s soft glove responses. He’s losing. Fight back with all the ammo you have, John.
Yeah, and believe me, that guy was ready with his talking points on this.
GET YOUR IDEA TO SARAH'S CAMPAIGN STAFF.....
Imagine.........
SARAH..A HUGE SCREEN...THE AVAILABLE PHOTOS AND SHORT VIDEOS OF OBAMA ASSOCIATING WITH THE THUGS AND DIRTBAGS HE CALLS FRIENDS...SHORT VIDEOS...COMMENTARY BY SARAH AND
bam! BAM! BAM!!!!!! A HUGE HOLE IN BLOWN INTO THE MEDIA BUBBLE AROUND OBAMA AND HIS BACKGROUND!
About time! Someone on another thread said that the Palin-McCain campaign should stick with just telling people about Jeremiah Wright, and leave Rezko and Ayers alone, since it’s easier to explain Wright than the others. For McCain, it may very well be. For Palin, who is an excellent communicator (and I mean that in a technical sense as well), the job can be done, the message broken down and made understandable for the average American.
She needs to use Obama’s play book, “get in their face and argue”
“Bad headline. It makes it sound like she picked up Ayers and started physically assaulting Obama with him.”
Don’t give Sarahcuda any ideas. LOL!
I don’t think they expected to have to deal with this today.
Fox reported that the times has come out with a story about their relationship and supposedly not falttering for bama.
This comes on the heels of what she said yesterday:
“She then slammed Barack Obama calling him disqualified to be President of the United States, “Some of his comments that he has made about the war that I think may in my world disqualify someone from consideration as the next commander in chief.” Palin said, “Some of his comments about Afghanistan and what we are doing there supposedly– just air raiding villages and killing civilians. That’s reckless.”
Keep it up, Sarah!
Didn’t Obama open his presidential campaign in the home of Bill Ayers? If he did, he can’t say he doesn’t have a close association with Ayers.
I guess if I carry that sign in MO i will get arrested by the OBAMA POLICE....
