I live in Alaska, and like I’ve written before, I actually know Sarah Palin. Those of us on the right need to understand that the left and their allies have declared war and treat it as such. They actively seek to destroy people with traditional American civic values and conservative ideas, and as disgusting as it is, we need to respond in kind. I’m watching the results of polite discussion with the thugs of the left. We need to match the left point by point. In fact, Sarah is just one in a long series of good people whose life has been wrecked by leftists. If that’s what they want, that’s what they deserve to get.
And this is how I feel before that first cup of coffee.
They must be very afraid of Sarah.
Their actions are very telling. If they weren’t so scared of Sarah, they would have completely ignored her.
RATs and RINOs pooling resources in order to destroy true conservatives. How...apocalyptic...
“Afraid” is an understatement. They are terrified that she could upset the GOP/Democrat machinery that keeps at least one of those parties in power to the detriment of the American People. They know they cannot control her.
If these are the type of individueals the Romney wants to run his campaign, and he doesn’t at least distance himself from their Palin-bashing then he will never get my vote. If all those mentioned are Republicans (even in-name-only) then the Republican Party will not receive my support.
Takes one to know one.
I don’t know if we must respond in kind, but we must respond to every single attack on Sarah Palin.
Not a single slur ought to go unanswered. Not a one.
The days of turning the other cheek ought to be over.
Make no mistake. Liberals are scared shitless over Sarah Palin and that is why they try to destroy her.
If they can’t get her to embarass herself then they try to get to her through her family.
It’s one of the most disgusting, disgraceful and outrageous things the MSM has ever done.
This is not what the press was created for and it is precisely because of this kind of treatment that the MSM has ratings in the basement and liberal tabloids which were once newspapers going out of business.

Good one, Josh! Way to get this out there fast!

(Yeah, it will give that rag some hits, but the exploding libdolt heads from a freeped poll re Gov. Palin will be worth it.)
Why now? Nothing new except the outrageous post-partum depression insinuation. SarahPAC has to report its first numbers next month and today is the last day for donations that count.
Are they nervous?
The MSM will do everything they can to portray Palin as being stupid. That’s one thing they don’t have to do with the current POTUS. McCain’s campaign was in the dumps, he was about to become another Mondale. His campaign shot up when Palin entered the picture. She got the vote out, it was her, not McCain that drew the crowds to the rallies, and they know it.
How do you believe Sarah Palin performed as a candidate for vice president?
Palin did great. It wasn't her fault that McCain wasn't a strong leader of the ticket. 66%
She did OK. She certainly wasn't the reason why McCain lost. 7%
She did poorly. McCain might have won if he made a smarter VP pick. 27%
Plus, she’s been on a roll lately. She was given a hero’s welcome in New York. She made Letterman cave. The left-wing hatebloggers overreached by mocking Trig, and parents are sympathizing with her. She’s up +6 among independents and +7 among Democrats (!) in the latest Pew poll. And she’s just returned from a visit to the troops in Kosovo which the Army called a “huge morale boost.” On the way back, she stopped in Germany and spent the whole day at Landstuhl with the wounded troops. That’s twice for her there in two years, and Obama blew off visiting the troops because the military wouldn’t let him bring his sycophantic press entourage with him. So he shot some hoops instead. Before she left for Kosovo, she rode out to the U.S.S. Stennis on a C-2A with an Admiral who personally excorted her and Todd to the carrier. Oh, and she just walked away with a straw poll in Kansas.
I’m willing to bet real money that the timing of the NY Daily News and VF hit pieces is no coincidence.

There was some interesting discussion starting here on the Stennis visit thread as to why flag officers from multiple services seem quite interested in the Governor lately. Take a look at it if you haven't seen it.
I think the choice of Sarah Palin was necessary.
In fact I think it reinvigorated and reenergized a flagging campaign.
One of the reasons the MSM fears Sarah. She can really whip up a crowd into a frenzy and into action.
