Superb; I’m so glad you found this Steyn snippet and posted it! And, as usual, Steyn NAILS it in his incredible style and wit! Thanks!
I was so excited about this pick, I donated money last night! (I wonder, does anybody know how much they’ve raised since the announcement? It was $3m in six hours, but it sounds like it’s been pouring in since that time, too.)
He already has dissed her for her “inexperience”, which is a TOTAL laugh riot. Me, I’m actually giddy with this choice. This is truly a game-changer to have Palin as the face of Republican women versus the stereotype the Dems have always forced on us.
Does anybody truly think that if she didn’t have an “R” behine her name, the old media wouldn’t be having orgasms about her? (I may have put too many negatives in there, but hopefully you get the point, LOL!)
Man, this thread is just full of potential bumper sticker slogans......
No, but she has had to deal with Russian ships in “her” waters.
Nothing big, just fishing ships, but still better than Barry.
Palin may not have foreign diplomatic experience but her people-reading assets seem to be fine-tuned and she is not afraid to speak up and get to the core of an issue.
This is not expected so much in women - especially ones new to office and she may surprise a lot of people with her quick study abilities.
No fool this woman. She is plucking a wealth of living out of her time on earth. More power to her! More good fortune for us.
Sarah Palin is such a strong and beautiful free-range 'politician' (in the good sense of the word) compared to Biden/Obama, both of whom are warehouse-raised, stuffed with horomones and dyes....
Her thoughts... her personna are crisp and clean and original, compared to the canned responses and platitudes of Biden/Obama.
I don't mind admitting how wrong I was in not pushing for Palin as McCain's VP.... mainly because I never even knew much about her and didn't take the time to check.
After reading the latest article in Alaska Magazine, I am thinking of moving to Alaska!!!
She is much more interesting than McCain and is a good #2.
Did you catch Alaska Magazine's article about Sarah?

Oh! That's nice.
Naughty librarian vibe - Too much!
They are running scared she'll make mincemeat out of both of them.
GREAT line!
Now...just who else do we know, who was like that?
"..Kin I buy me a huntin' license here?..."
I suspect that the election will end up the same.
I agree, but it ain’t mine. The article credits the Rev-er-end Jack-son for the original line - probably about some conservative. In any case, it rings true.
The original line is none other than Marion Barry’s. There was talk in the early 90s of Jesse running for mayor of DC. Barry’s comment was “Jesse don’t wanna run nothing but his mouth.” Priceless.
Thank you.
