“You know, Sarah Palin just can’t seem to get it, ... Clyburn said.
Doesn’t she understand that Republicans are supposed to stand still while Democrats are rabbit-punching them?

I have come to the conclusion that Dems are so intellectually stunted that anything other than the talking points fed to them by the Ruling elite of their party is not comprehensible.

“The No. 3 House Democrat referenced the civil rights era.”

Of course, he has nothing else to reference it to because Clyburn is too stupid to realize that it's 2011 and not 1955.

No, you don’t understand. Politics in America has always been a scholarly pursuit based on genteel behavior until talk radio came along. LOL

“Ok, I’m officially supporting Sarah Palin now because I realize how much the left hates her. Do they know she CAN indeed win? Why would they focus so much effort on destroying her if she wasn’t a threat?

I hope she runs. I hope she wins so I can enjoy all the screeching from the left.

I have never in my life seen them go so nuts over a private citizen. It’s surreal.”

Welcome to the Sarah Palin supporters. You have summarized why so many members of our family support Sarah because of the insane hatred of the left of this decent woman.

They get away with this because they own the media for the most part.

"But I think intellectually, she seems not to be able to understand what's going on here."

An identifying feature of a Leftist is that they WILL NOT allow for honest disagreement. Any disagreement with a Leftist position MUST be due to "ignorance" (i.e. the person has not been sufficiently indoctrinated), "stupidity"( the person rejects the logic of the indoctrination materials) or "evil" (the person is able to argue against the Left's position).

It is a fundamental aspect of Leftist argumentation that you NEVER acknowledge that an opponent's arguments have any basis in sound logic. It's straight out of Saul Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals.

The reason is that their arguments have real difficulty in standing up to honest debate, so they have little choice in resorting to ad-hominem at the onset.

I did a serious double take, there: I thought you might be freeper pissant writing that.

When I see and hear things today that are reminiscent of that period of time, I am very, very concerned about it, because I know what it led to back then, and I know what it can lead to again

Just keep digging yourself into that hole... eventually you'll get out of it.

Clyburn: ‘We’ve got to spend our way out of this recession’
- 02/01/10

Translation.

We are going to tax you, to pay me, to give to my guys.

Im hoping our side gets it cause its a waste of time on the other side.

If we do, we're in good shape. Sarah Palin is thinking at a very deep level. And Mr. Clyburn, she knows exactly "what is going on here", so should all Americans.

Clyburns another one of those failed idiots that gets into office for a lifetime due to gerrymandering of districts, isn’t he?

Clyburn is twice as smart as his brother who is a half wit.

We all understand what is going on here.

The fascist, statist, evil left (yes, that’s redundant) is using mass murder to further their anti-freedom, anti-American, and anti-human life, and power-amassing agenda.

It is pretty clear to those paying attention. The Left is evil.

Better yet, replace him with a conservative black with common sense and a sense of morality.

He needs to go away. The only way he will go away is to tea party him in the next election.
