Palin to Christie: Real Courage is cutting when you have a surplus – like I did
The Right Scoop ^ | March 4, 2011 | The Right Scoop

Posted on 03/04/2011 5:59:06 PM PST by Virginia Ridgerunner

Palin says that Christie is forced to cut budgets because NJ is broke. But she points out that when she became Governor of Alaska, she cut even though she had a surplus:

BTW, this is a thread about both Palin and Christie.

I see your criticisms of Palin. Did I miss your criticisms of Christie up thread?

Or do you think that there are none to be made?

The bailout that Palin supported was “paid back” with printed dollars from the Fed.

Honestly? I do not know. As of today, I don’t see anyone out there, who has expressed interest, who can. And that’s the saddest part of the whole thing.

Your statement is nonsense.

As I said....Opposing the Bank Bailout was the correct thing to do. That said, only a small portion of it hasn't been paid back.

Do you know how childish you sound when you invoke DU and KOS into anything you disagree with? Just because someone doesn’t believe Sarah Palin is right for the job, does not mean they are not a good Republican. Good Republicans know how to debate an issue without going to the place where you always go. I suggest you take some time off and learn how to back up an argument. It will make you much more credible.

Blah, blah, blah...!

I've been fighting this online war against PDS trolls for over two years now, and so do you think I really care what you and your troll buddies think? This is way beyond simple disagreement, debate, and argument now...it's about stuffing y'all back under the rocks from which you oozed.

BTW, I'm a Conservative first, Republican a distant second. You'll vote for anyone the GOP poo-bahs tell you to. I won't.

I'm still out on Christie, but I did comment on him several times as well as other candidates. You might improve some on your comprehension skills by going back on some of my earlier posts.

Well, good for you..and I mean that. But this PDS crap has to stop. I’ve said this a million times. I like Sarah Palin. I think she’s been good for the Republican Party and for the Conservatism. But, I believe, she is not Presidential material. That does not mean I am a DUer. Whether you like it or not, I represent the majority of the Republican Party. I work everyday in Republican politics here in Arizona, one of the most Conservative States, and I just don’t see the support for Palin. Again, whether you like it or not, it is the troops on the ground that will get the nominee elected. Are you involved in the Party in Virginia. You should be. Are you a PC?

Of course, that being said, if she wins the nomination, I will work my butt off the elect her. But right now, it just ain’t happening.

Your unprovoked insult was stupid. There are many reasons why one can miss a post in a thread that in 350 posts long. You may want to improve your reasoning skills.

BTW, as a suggestion, instead of wasting all of our time on such things as federal earth quake relief, in Alaska, in what? the 60's?, you may want to spend more time looking into Christie.

Start with Obamacare, Christie and the state of NJ for instance. It's a subject of current importance.

You gave no intelligent response to my point that the Fed printed money that allowed the banks to settle their bailout debts. Perhaps it’s because you can’t?

“Just for the record, I happen to be one of those “Blood Sucking Takers who helped pioneer the Prudhoe Bay Oilfield for Atlantic Richfield and Sohio.”

Now, we’re getting somewhere...the Psycho here was/is in bed with the corrupt oil interests in Alaska. No wonder he has a personal grudge against Governor Palin. She yanked the trough away from him.

All is clear now with this one...”Maybe that’s why Palin had no problem passing a “windfall” profit tax on the oil companies, further increasing everybody’s gas prices in 2008.””

********************************

It is clear as well with Newbie troll Txconservative25, who is also offended that she made the corrupt oil companies drill and then, pursuant to the Alaska constitution, returned the royalties to the owners, the taxpayers of Alaska:

The newbie troll writes:

“A true nanny stater is one who think that the governor actually controls the land and not the actual property owners. Maybe that’s why Palin had no problem passing a “windfall” profit tax on the oil companies, further increasing everybody’s gas prices in 2008.”

***************************************

And no, little troll, her actions caused prices to fall not to rise. More production=lower prices. Aren’t you learning that in your pre-school?

Your response wasn't intelligent.

The banks borrowed money from the feds. The banks paid that money back plus interest in almost every case. The net effect on the cost to the taxpayers was almost zero.

Christie isn’t all you’re “out” on. Why don’t you see if your pal Lisa is available to run?

I intended no insult. I appologize for sounding trite. I meant no offense.

But I have mostly answered attacks on this thread and explained my position regarding Palin on most of them.

My position on Christie demands much more observation on my part. I am neutral towards him at this time.

More taxes lead to more production which leads to lower prices? You dumb liberal, are you kidding me? This isn’t Organizing for America.

Are you claiming that her actions increased production at Prudhoe bay? Have any solid data to prove that? I certainly do. I’ve been involved in the business for over 35 years and I am calling your bluff.

Seriously? Are you that clueless as to the Fed’s ability to inflate asset prices simply by turning on a switch to the printing press? Read up on how US monetary policy works and then come back and discuss.

************************************************

No. You have mostly DELIVERED attacks on this thread. Your position on Palin has been clear from the Jump. This thread has been interesting to this extent. As Virginia Ridgerunner observed, Your animus toward Palin springs directly from teh fact that she gave the Oil Royalties back to all the taxpayers of Alaska, not just to the Corrupt Bastards Club, your employers, the corrupts oil companies Oil Companies, who no doubt would have shared it with you:

Your comment:

“Just for the record, I happen to be one of those “Blood Sucking Takers who helped pioneer the Prudhoe Bay Oilfield for Atlantic Richfield and Sohio.”

************************************

Thanks for outing yourself as having a pecuniary motive for hating Palin, since she sided with the taxpayers and against the Corrupt Batards Club. Your friends at Atlantic Richfield and Sohio aren’t going to be happy nor is Princess Lisa.
