Just to elaborate, you’re a liar claiming you love/like Sarah while you insult our intelligence and make insinuations smearing her character. You are a liar. Your ilk have been stinking up FR for too long, making claims of ‘conservative’ and ‘fan of Reagan’ while sewing your filthy rhetoric left and right seeking to create confusion and discord. You’re a liar.

So it is political suicide to want to extricate yourself from a crossfire of venom, ridicule and character assassination and prove to the world that you are not a masochist.

To: Taking Congress back in 2010

What I hope she does is work for conservative Reps and Senators in fundraising/get out the vote campaigns. This is is her strength and where she can do the most good. However I think her national aspiration for higher office are dead. I know that is not the popular view here, but we should try to be a little realistic. Half a term as Governor of Alaska is not great experience to run on and the fact that she quit midstream regardless of the reasoning is a knife through the heart. Anybody who tries to compare this with Reagan’s years in the wilderness before running for president is conveniently forgetting he had served two FULL terms as governor of one of the largest, richest, ost mpopulous states in the union.

Okay .. all is forgiven.

You’re correct .. a lot more disruptors have shown up here in recent years.

However, they soon tire of this site and return to Huffington Post or DU to laugh at the things we say. Who cares.

But .. you missed the most fun when GW was running in 2000. Those disruptors would purpose to start a fight by making some off the wall comment about Bush or Cheney. A couple of their friends would join the discussion, and the war was on. It was a game - and the end result was for the disruptors to watch the Freepers go ballistic over the disruptor’s comments. Unfortunately for the disruptors, we discovered what they were doing and started laughing at them. Poor things, I don’t think they ever recovered.

You’re leaving behind one little thing: Palin’s speech yesterday.

Everything she said contradicts your opinion. So the only way for you to continue believing it is to completely disregard Palin’s own words.

But you’re such a Palin supporter and your really love her, right?

Just give up now, for your own self respect.

Why? I think it was a very smart move. I will support her 100% when she runs. She seems to be the only outspoken conservative connected with the Republican party nowadays.

Well now you have called me a liar twice. Would you please take the time to tell me what I wrote that was a lie? I stated an opinion of how I feel about Sarah's quitting. That is not a lie as that is how I felt about it. I can't find anything else that would be considered a lie so I'm counting on you to point it out. By the way, is everyone that does not agree with you a liar?

I think you can be a supporter of Palin but still have legitimate misgivings about this move. If she remains in the GOP it is very possible that her enemies within the party will neutralize her. If on the other hand she does as I hope and leads a new conservative third party then the future is bright

Ever heard the term ‘faint praise’? Bless your poor little heart, you have reading comprehension problems. Do you treat those close to you whom you might claim to love the same way you treat Sarah Palin—claiming you love her, then spouting a smear to her character?

I see by your profile you are big on “forgiveness” but evidently not for someone that disagrees with your point of view. They are liars. I guess if you are going to forgive it would have to include liars also otherwise you would be a hypocrite.

You did not answer my inquiry but skirted the issue. Are you by chance a politician?

The critics are saying this circa 2009....but what about 2012 when this economy has gone gonzo, people are POed, and are ready to find someone new?

This is like Texas hold’m.....I need to see the flop and the opening bets first before I render final judgement.

Do yourself a favor and listen to Palin’s speech from yesterday.

It will force you to change your opinion, but you will feel a lot smarter.

I find it highly amusing that the MSM, lefties and some on the right and insisting that Sarah Palin is now done for. They don’t know that, of course, but they are throwing an awful lot of pennies into their wishing well.


so that’s where the DNC gets is funds !!!!!

Your focus is--in my opinion--spot on. That Sarah resigns before finishing her first term is probably a fair sign that she does not have political office aspirations in her future.

HOWEVER, as you note so pointedly, she can and likely will helping real conservatives in their election bids for 2010. In a few short years, she might even have brought enough real conservatives to Washington, DC so that her genuine conservative principles will again be of value to the American voters. It will be interesting to watch what happens in the coming months as Republicans may try to regain the House and Senate from the Marxist scum that run the democrap party now.

I don't expect Sarah Palin will show up for just anyone in the coming weeks. It is sad that she had to come upon the stage in the company of rino McCain, one of the weaker emirs of incumbenistan.
