Margaret Carlson is a communist chipmunk.

Greta told a joke on her show last night, “why do liberals hate Sarah Palin?....because she’s happy.”

Maggie sounds frightened. I guess she’s worried that Palin will have a strong and successful political life after her stint as Governor.

These folks are trying desperately to poison the minds of the public before Sarah gets a chance to speak out for herself.

The DNC paid bloggers are posting the same comment in various incarnations on every news article, youtube video, comment section, chat board and blog that references Sarah.

Seems to be a coordinated effort that reporters and pundits are involved in too. I wouldn’t doubt that the pundits are being paid to participate.

“Margaret Carlson is very good at looking like a jackass”

Typical of the kind of elitist nitwit who thinks she’s brilliant because she occasionally uses words like “Weltanschauung”, “oenophile” and “hegemonic” at cocktail parties. BARF!

Hey Margaret, you should be worried about the idiots running around like Chicken Little, clucking about Climate Change!

You could tell she was extremely uncomfortable. She doesn’t want to stop being Governor, but it’s either leave office or not have a penny to her name to support her children. She chose her family, it’s a shame that no one is investigating who are funding these people. I never heard of one ethics complaint filed against Sarah Palin before August 29th 2008, even during the campaign nothing was filed, only AFTER the election it all started. So apparently these ethics complainers had no problem with Sarah until after the election, food for thought.

This was from the Time Magazine article that Sarah was in this week, including some statements from Meg Stapleton..I find these to be quite interesting..

For Palin, however, these aren’t isolated incidents. She believes they grow from the same root, which is too big and too formidable to ignore. “A lot of this comes from Washington, D.C. The trail is pretty direct and pretty obvious to us,” says Meg Stapleton, a close Palin adviser in Alaska. Awaiting a flight back to Anchorage from distant Dillingham, Stapleton adds that the anti-Palin offensive seems lifted straight from The Thumpin’, which describes the political strategies of Rahm Emanuel, who is now the White House chief of staff. “It’s the Sarah Palin playbook. It’s how they operate,” Stapleton says.

Palin and her Alaska circle find evidence for their suspicions about the White House in the person of Pete Rouse, who lived in Juneau for a time before he became chief of staff to a young U.S. Senator named Barack Obama. Rouse, they note, is a friend of former Alaska state senator Kim Elton, who pushed the first ethics investigation of Palin, examining her controversial firing of the state’s public-safety commissioner. Both Rouse and Elton have joined the Obama Administration. White House press secretary Robert Gibbs scoffed at the theory. “The charge is ridiculous,” he said. “Obviously there is no effort ... From my vantage point, a lot of the criticism she is getting from others seems to be generated from self-inflicted wounds.

Meg went a step further at one point telling me, “I just hope to God Rahm Emanuel isn’t using taxpayer money to come after Alaska.” That’s the way they think about it: that these Alaskans filing ethics complaints have been hoodwinked by Obama operatives into wasting the Alaskan government’s time and resources. They believe that with Palin gone, the state will no longer face this barrage of “frivolous” complaints. On that point, they are probably right — there will be much less interest in filing complaints against Lt. Gov. Sean Parnell. Palin, Meg said, was their target all along because she “represents the biggest threat to Obama. She’s the only one who can get the base excited.” I’m not entirely convinced of Obama’s Nixon-esque sabotage capabilities, but I do think Palin has felt under attack for the last eight months and it wasn’t a hard leap for anyone in her orbit to connect local progressive wingnuts and the Administration. Palin has never been great at playing defense.

You can go after Carlson head on or you can go around her since she is meaningless. When Sarah starts her battles, she'll call the shots.

Unlike Sarah, Carlson, Sally Quinn, Lettermen have few followers and they get paid by rich leftists by the venom they spew.

The media they represent is dying and they'll go the way of the dinosaurs they are.

Bye bye meaningless folks.

“I don’t know who this person is, but she is correct about Palin’s diction from an academic point of view. I find it very annoying.”
Thank you for this elist view. Quite possibly academicians might find her diction not up to their standards, but to an unwashed member of the overburdened taxpayer masses I liked every word Gov. Palin said, and the way she said them.
So many of the pseudo intellectual elitists contribute nothing except talk about those who actually get things done.
