Sarah Palin: A Fear Worse than Words
Examiner.com ^ | 6-14-09 | Paul A. Ibbetson

Posted on 06/14/2009 5:04:34 PM PDT by Scott Martin

As recently reported by the Associated Press, liberal blogger Geoffrey Dunn accused the Alaskan Governor of stealing the words from a 2005 Newt Gingrich speech in a recent introduction the Governor made in Alaska for talk show host Michael Reagan.

Like a typical liberal, Dunn found a friendly venue at the Huffington Post to spew his slanderous statements, and then later edited his post to soften his accusation of Palin as a plagiarist to someone who failed to give complete and proper attribution. In retrospect, Dunn grudgingly reported later that Palin had given verbal accreditation to Newt Gingrich in her speech. Rich Tyler, Newt Gingrich’s spokesman stated that Dunn’s accusation had the validity of a joke. It would be easy to throw this incident on the growing stack of failed liberal attempts to disparage the integrity of conservative politicians and just move on. However, for the sake of what may be more than just decency, let’s take a moment to look at why Sarah Palin still warrants the target of liberal hatred at this stage of the game. Sarah Palin remains a beloved figure among conservatives, despite the defeat of John McCain, that has placed the nation at the hands of Barack Obama.

The same attributes that naturally draw conservatives toward her that keep angry liberals continually attempting to destroy her. That is, Palin was following (and continues to follow) the conservative values of small government, tax cuts, oil drilling, strong defense, and the list goes on and on. She does all this as a beautiful independent woman, who defies the modern liberal logic of the day and embraces the traditional conservative values of the family and the right of the unborn to live. In short, she makes liberals sick. In truth, she scares the hell out of them...

She’s as scary as Margaret Thatcher was to the Left in the UK 30 years ago.

Sick with fear. Like roaches stuck in manure on a train track hearing a whistle...

Let me go ahead and beat the Sarah Haters to it...

The fact that the left continues to pay people to post on conservative forums about how "dangerous" Palin is to the Republican party and how she will never win is indicative of how they have a long-term plan in place regarding Palin. Post anything about Palin on Free Republic and the Sarah Haters posing as "conservatives" come out in full force. Then they will sigh and groan about how much they love Sarah's politics, but that she will never win with all her quote "Family Problems."

We're on to you. Get lost.

If the Left proceeds in taxing our medical benefits, Sarah would be a shoo-in.

It is not Sarah herself that scares the liberal vermin minority, it is her ability to ignite and mobilize the dormant Conservative American majority.

Yes, we still are the majority. However, for a variety of reasons, many Americans just don’t realize that they are indeed, conservative.

The reason Sarah frightens the Left is simple - she gave a powerful speech at the convention. There was a guy who did the same thing at the Democrat convention in ‘04...I forget his name, some guy from Chicago with funny ears...

Margaret Thatcher saved Englands butt as will Sarah save Americas.

She draws people precisely because she does not promise to "save America." There is no messianic complex in her, no arrogant assumption that she knows better than anyone else. She understands and truly believes in the people of this country to do for themselves, if the damn feds would simply unhook the leash. She is unapologetically American; that's the crux of the hatred the left has for her.
