What is Driving the Left's Hatred of Sarah Palin?
The Ignorant Fishermen Blog ^ | 12/5/10 | DJP I.F.

Posted on 12/05/2010 1:39:28 PM PST by The Ignorant Fisherman

Ever since Sarah Palin entered the national political arena two years ago as the Republican VP nominee, she has caused sheer panic in the hearts and minds of the Leftist Liberals and Moderates in America. Accordingly, the Leftist media is hell-bent on doing all they can to discredit Palin’s accomplishments and destroy her character at any cost. Even now, much effort and energy is being expended to deceive the American people regarding her considerable achievements. Her popularity among conservatives is astounding, and many believe that she will get the 2012 endorsement for the presidency. As Sarah's new book is flying off of the selves, the progressive libs in their hatred are attacking and trashing her on Amazon.com's book review section. Newsweek a few months ago took some shots at Sarah with their subtle article on Palin and her great influence with conservatives and being the voice of evangelical women.

The Left was born to hate. They hate without reason or cause. You can’t debate with them. You can’t reason with them. They hate because it’s their reason d’etre ...

That’s because the left is light lightning, the current has to go somewhere. Nixon, Reagan, Bush, Bush. Who was it in the 90’s? Jesse Helms and Strom Thurmond still?

The left is nuts about Saracuda cause of two things:
1)She has principles that are not negotiable.
2)Like Ronald Maximus, she has unflinching confidence in her principles.

The Left and its State-Run Media Minions are now extremely busy trying to discredit Palin and have set up an unparalleled smear campaign to derail any 2012 presidential run.

They are not trying to derail a Palin campaign. She's the one they want.

Polls show that she's the easiest one for Obama to beat. And the left would relish the opportunity to trash her for the next two years.

Her candidacy would be a win-win-win for them. Beat the right. Beat up on Palin. And win in a landslide.

I remember how Quayle was lambasted in the news. But then, he did say some pretty silly things.

She isn’t a career politician. She isn’t one of the political elite.She is an ordinary American who hasn’t been bought.

The ones who hate her have been bought and paid for by lobbyists or Unions, or PAC’s.

“What is Driving the Left’s Hatred of Sarah Palin?”

####

Mobilization of the long dormant conservative majority.

It isn’t just the Left. Perverts, Commies, “elites” of all stripes, and career bureaucrats, all have much to fear when the common man is empowered the way the Founders intended.

Just as with Reagan, that too often requires a charming, capable and courageous frontman catalyst.

Here is the heart of the matter. There is now ensuing a Great Spiritual War for the hearts, minds and souls of men. Satan's desire is to remove the United States from the World Stage along with its Judean/ Christian heritage. Also included in his diabolical plan for the country’s demise are any remnants of Christian testimony and support of Israel.

And she is pro-life.

WVNan,mandaladon and Windflier, I want to leave “palingenesis “ or “ palingenesia" to you.

Hatred and Fear are kindred spirits.

The left knows they would get no where with their agenda with Sarah Palin in the White House. There would be no compromise on principles and she doesn't fear them.

They really don't want to face her in anything, so they are trying to destroy her with words from afar, but she ain't flinchin'...not a bit.

The media is not used to having their words thrown back at them, they are a "one-way" organization. They've always been there to "dish it out" and hardly anyone ever dishes it back at them.

But Saracuda doesn't seem to fear them. I think she figures they've thrown their whole arsenal at her and she's still going. They've dumped on her record, her marriage, her kids, grandkids, and hairdo. Nothing sticks.

Sarah has the people on her side, and the left and/or the press can fight that. Look what the people, aka the TEA party movement, just did in the elections.

Sarah could be marking the beginning of the end of the democrats power in America. She will expose them at every opportunity, and so far, she's going for the throat, not the pinkie toe.

Mark my word, there is nothing more precious to the left than their power; they will do ANYTHING to protect it, there are no sacred cows to the left, not even other lefties, not even obama.

She’s a woman who doesn’t believe that women should have a right to kill their own children. That’s all it takes to drive any liberal woman into a hysterical frenzy of hatred against her.

That is exactly right. When you consider how many liberal women have actually had abortions (man I would love to know that percentage), how could they not hate a woman who would have them confront the fact that they murdered their own kid?

I want to get vicious with you, but since it's Sunday, I'll pray for you, but if given the chance, preying isn't beyond my scope.

Oh absolutely correct. Look at what they've done to Sarah. She says “refuditate” meaning ‘repudiate’ and look what happens. Biden and all those Dem.Libs can misspeak all over the place and nary a peep. Then too, they apply quotes to her that comediennes say such as that “I can see Russia”

Regardless of what your or I think, the left is CRAVING a Palin candidacy. They are not afraid of her. (Yes, they hate her and everything she stands for) But make no mistake, they desperately, desperately want her.

You think Sarah Palin can overcome her obstacles and win the support of moderates and liberals inside the Republican Party and the support of independents.

I don’t.

If Sarah Palin is the one the Left and democrats want she would be showered with praises you idiot troll.

Instead, she has been shredded since she first appeared on the national stage because they're scared to death she's going to be the first woman president.

Now go play with bears in Alaska, Mattie, and tell your demonicrat bosses that we're onto you here. FR is quite apparently your full time job. Find another. You're fired for incompetency.

What is driving the Left’s hatred of Sarah Palin? Some of the same stuff that often drove some of the same people to similarly hate young George Bush, their perception of an apparently-unearned boost to national prominence and a frequent-enough display of an inner (over?)confident self-assurance that, to many, seems to border quite closely on smugness. And yet, when Barack Obama’s rise is shown to fit nearly the same mold, the Left applauds. Odd.

Abortion is the driving force of the Left and CINOs like Pelosi and the Kennedy's. They're utterly unconscionable for going against the Church, but they're not fooling God.

Yep. The Left needs an enemy, just like in Orwell’s 1984. Hatred is one of the pillars of their political philosophy. Palin is just the latest in a long line of Lefty Hate targets (the Left hated Bob Dole of all people in the early 90s—remember how the Left and MSM tried to build him up as some evil force opposing Clinton’s benevolent spending agenda?).

Sarah Palin is a Holy Spirit-filled living embodiment of what a Godly woman can be. She is the peak of everything anathema to Satan:

Successfully fighting corruption in the kingdoms of the Earth using nothing but prayer, honesty, and genuine application of the Golden Rule.

She kept and loves her Downs Syndrome child, which is a direct spit-in-the-face of the Moloch-worshiping infanticide cult.

She says what she means, and means what she says. Her yes means "yes" and her no means "no".

She not only expresses no fear of firearms, but uses them proficiently to feed her family.

She is exactly what Americans are called to be.

And this scares the literal Hell out of everyone who is tuned to SATN FM, because she *is* what we become after the collapse of the local Dark Throne. And all she is, is just an American.


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

They have feared her ever since she gaave that speech and declared herself a “pitbull with lipstick”. She threatens a reliable RAT voting block: women. If she picks off enough women, she could kill RATS for a generation.

I think I understand the problem, and you are partially right.

Just before the 2008 election, I was stuffing envelopes for my favorite charity, and one of the women present had an adverse reaction to my mention of Palin. She attends one of the mainline Protestant denominations in Seattle, married late in life and works for the local electric utility; her husband works for the state. They have a daughter who was 13 at the time. I asked what she had against Palin.

“She has too many children. It’s a sin. Two is OK. I can see three. But four is too many. And that fifth one’s a Mongoloid idiot! She should have got rid of it. What kind of life is it going to have? It’s a sin to bring defective children into the world.”

I wasn’t surprised because that is the mainstream feeling here.

“And her pregnant daughter? The boyfriend looks like a deer caught in the headlights, and you just know she wants to get rid of it, but her mother’s standing over her saying, ‘Young lady, this is a Christian household, and you will have that child and raise it to an adult as a reminder of your sin.’ I wish someone would have the decency to get her away from her mother and get her an abortion.”

I wasn’t surprised at this either because that is the mainstream feeling here. I heard it many times during the campaign.

“If my daughter told me she was pregnant, I’d haul her ass off to the abortion clinic so fast her head would spin. I’m not becoming a grandmother under those circumstances.”

I wasn’t surprised at this because I’ve heard this for years all over the country and from family members.

While a lot of people don’t like to say publicly what that lady said, they believe it, and in their hearts they believe Palin and her daughter have been irresponsible in having children, a problem that could have easily been fixed by abortion. Further, it’s not just Leftists. People whom I would consider moderates or simply fiscal conservatives have the same feelings, even if they are hesitant to say such things in public.

It’s more widespread than you think.
