Folks had better be very cautious about any politician who runs on a moniker of “repeal the bill”, too. Unless there is veto proof support in both houses of Congress for repealing the health control boondoggle there will be no repeal until Obamalamadingdong is out of office. If people fall for this line without doing their homework a lot of RINO’s will gain or keep office......
I know the Palin haters have to get a jab in every time she attends a rally or otherwise opens her mouth.
She didn’t organize the protest rally. She was invited to speak. Along with others.
At least Palin has a forum of wide spread media attraction. I don’t see Romneybots or Paulinistas energizing the population.
I would go to a rally that Palin attended, or I would go to a rally even if she didn’t attend.
So what gives? American thinker......think outside of the box for a change.
If you Palin hating posters tried making a calm rational argument for your views, you might get some traction with Freepers.
As long as you all insist on doing nothing but endlessly posting these sort of Leftist style personal attack based, bile laced posts, no one is going to take your views seriously.
I agree all the way with this article.
Thank you for posting it.
Someone call the Waaahhhmbulance.
If this author had acted like an adult, rather then a petulant brat angry because people did not mindless adore his personal political dogmas, he would not of been treated like a freak at this event.
This guy went looking for a fight and now is whining cause he got one.
I can’t add anything else to this article - it is EXACTLY how I feel right now - especially here on FreeRepublic.
We’ve been fooled so many times, and I’m afraid we’re about to get it again. It’s so true - ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS.
Well Mr. Shoemake, then you do not know Sarah's history and accomplishments as mayor, oil & gas commission, Governor. Probably best you not vote. The uneducated got us into this mess in the first place.
Cf course you do, since it validates your emotion based feelings about Palin.
How about ONE of you make a calm, rational argument against her for a change instead of just endlessly engaging in this sort of bile laced hysteric ad homine attack style politics?
My thinking is the author is just trying to warn folks that they, too, could be hoodwinked by a slick talking salesman on the right, just like the Obamabots were on the left. Once upon a time there was a fellow one time named H. Ross Perot who ran for POTUS. He gained a big following and the result was 8 years of Slick Willy......
Your PDS is showing. We need leaders today. They may not be the same people next year or next election, but if you are going to fight a Progressive, Populist movement, that lives by the branding and bumper sticker. You better not be shooting the horse you are riding. Voters, particularly 0bama voters, aren’t capable of grasping ideas that aren’t single syllable and in sentences more than six words. If we want to stop that cult movement, we have to not only spread question in their ranks, but provide them with a bright shinning object to grasp.
This writer is right, and he is wrong.
He is right about the dangers of investing so much emotion in one person, and he is wrong about denouncing Palin for the loyalty she owes to McCain.
Pretty idiotic statement you got going there. How many Tea Party meetings(if any) have you been to, and seen them turn round and sing hallelujah to Sarah Palin?
And who ever heard of someone inviting a speaker to their rally, just so they can trash that speaker?
Guy who wrote the article is an idiot.
In answer to the headline:
Yes.
The folks of the TEA parties ( not party) are a loosely based group of people agreeing to come together to let Congress and the gubmint know what their concerns are. It is NOT an organized political group. It is NOT offering ANY candidate for ANY office.
If you are that confused perhaps you need to rethink everything. On MOST issues Palin is on target. The fact that she is loyal to McShame can be viewed in a thousand different ways. It does not disqualify her from anything.
As far as I can tell the only ones that seem to be hankering after the nomination are McCain, Romney, and Gingrich.....those are the ones to fear
A simple question. Romney?
2012 is down the road a bit at this time, so why such anxiety over Sarah Palin?
The focus right now should be on dumping RINO’s, and Democrats from Congress.
I think it rather useless to be attacking potential Presidential contenders when they are the least of the electoral priorities at this time.
Dump McCain, and every other real, and existing RINO, and Democrat we possibly can about eight months from now in November should be the entire focus NOW.
We’ll have two years to go after Obama once we defang the bastard this November.
Does the author have any idea just how idiotic this premise is? Palin defeated the corrupt GOP establishment in Alaska to win the governorship. She is hated by the MSM to the point of them foaming at the mouth.
One can find fair reason to debate Palin appearing for McCain. But if you want to be taken seriously in that debate, one should not try to out-compete the MSM in their use of slug slime...
