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...

What a shoddy article.

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.

That dude should check a dictionary for the definition of value (i.e. a desirable principle or general ideal, like e.g. limited government. Tax cuts or oil drilling are not VALUES, but specific POLICIES.). Also, that Palinwithguns.com ad is tasteless. How can anyone seriously be outraged about Letterman's slutty stewardess joke and at the same time not have problems with that filth / trash?

Some people should better not be quoted.

What would Margaret Thatcher do for England today, with them being populated by pro-life Muslims?

They would have never been populated by Muslims period; most likely.

Was she pro-life, and how would she have curbed immigration? I need to find out if the abortion nations are now being invaded.

I don’t know; but she is a conservative. I don’t really know how she would have done it except just stop it. Times weren’t the same back then. She was Reagan’s friend and time.

Sarah needs to clearly articulate positions on a full set of issues.

It is completely fair to ask for that.

It is completely fair, but she will need to be judicious in her words and very careful in her timing.

She has been silent on foreign affairs, the Iranian election especially. But perhaps now is not the time.
