"You thank a vet... (cheers) ...And then you realize that our vets deserve a Commander-In-Chief who will let them do their job and go kick ISIS' ass. [Gov. Palin @ OK Trump rally.]

Somehow, I think more people focus on the message than the sentence structure.

Eugene does virtue signaling.
‘Like me, like me, invite me to your parties. I wrote about how bad Sarah Palin is!’

Do you really think ANY Presidential candidate would be so out of touch as to use China made campaign apparel?

Does anyone remember when the Clintons decided that all services should wear berets so they would feel tough like the Green Berets? Adding insult to injury those Berets were made in China.

“Alas, there is no grand principle on display here. There is nothing but opportunism and ego. For a long time now, Sarah Palin has been apt to say anything and everything to keep the cameras buzzing around her hive. This rotten endorsement completes the decline. What, we might ask, has become of Palin’s beloved Tea Party? What, too, of her purported admiration for limited government, and of her ostensible hatred of heretics and fakers? The prospect of a mass movement that was earnestly committed to libertarianism was always a little too good to be true, but even I didn’t imagine it ending like this. All that talk of the Constitution and the Declaration; all that energy expended against the cronies and the rent-seekers; all those purifying voter drives — and for what? So that Sarah Palin could add a few zeroes to her bank balance and Donald Trump could go from the purchaser to the bought? Today was the day that Rick Santelli’s famous yelp finally melted into populism and avarice. Today, at about ten minutes past six, P. T. Barnum beat out Hayek for the soul of the insurgent Right. Today, the rebels became the charlatans they had set out to depose. What comes next will be anybody’s guess.”

—Charles C.W. Cooke

He actually got a lot right, including the fact that her performance was a train wreck.

But Trump still beats her in the word salad department.

Appendix - Buck v. Bell

Buck v. Bell, 274 U.S. 200 (1927), was the United States Supreme Court ruling that upheld a statute instituting compulsory sterilization of the unfit, including the mentally retarded, "for the protection and health of the state." It was largely seen as an endorsement of negative eugenics-the attempt to improve the human race by eliminating "defectives" from the gene pool.

" We have seen more than once that the public welfare may call upon the best citizens for their lives. It would be strange if it could not call upon those who already sap the strength of the State for these lesser sacrifices, often not felt to be such by those concerned, to prevent our being swamped with incompetence. It is better for all the world, if instead of waiting to execute degenerate offspring for crime, or to let them starve for their imbecility, society can prevent those who are manifestly unfit from continuing their kind. The principle that sustains compulsory vaccination is broad enough to cover cutting the Fallopian tubes... "It is better for all the world, if instead of waiting to execute degenerate offspring for crime or to let them starve for their imbecility, society can prevent those who are manifestly unfit from continuing their kind...
"Three generations of imbeciles are enough."
(Oliver Wendell Holmes)

Trump is a fumble mouthed blowhard that can't speak in complete sentences.

If the message is correct it doesn't much matter how it is said as evidenced by the poll numbers of Trump vs Walter Denton.

DoughtyOne's caucus proves that Freepers are not representative of the public at large. Trump and Cruz are virtually tied here, while most polls among the electorate has Trump leading Cruz by double digits except in an occasional Iowa poll. Last night Iowa had Trump up by 10, so who knows how that state will go.

One thing for sure neither candidate will run short of negative add material as long as Free Republic has us. We stay on top off all the smut because it has worked out so well for us in the past.

I do not personally know of a single vote that has been change by a rash of trash post against either candidate. If you are one of those that has changed their vote because of some trash posted here please let me know.

Calling Sarah Palin a money grubbing Whore,. willing to sell her soul and Country for a few zeros is more than a little over the top, and this is just one of many of your tirades.

Maybe you could take some of you sick talent over to SNL, they haven't said anything funny for years. You are an insult to your very own screen name.
