She’s certainly not helping herself by supporting flaming socialist McAmnesty.

Are you sure?

Why Ron Paul Voted For the Amnesty Bill

By Sierra Times

After last weeks vote of HR 1885 that granted amnesty to immigration that now occupy U.S. Soil, Ron Paul’s (R-TX) vote left many of our readers scrathing their heads. They weren’t alone.

So we asked. According to Paul’s office, there may have been some bad ‘spin’ on the details about the bill itself. We’ll let you be the judge as you read. Your feedback is strongly encouraged. - Sierra Times

From The Office of Ron Paul: Regarding the extension of section 245(i) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, contained in the Enhanced Border Security and Visa Entry Reform Act (HR 1885).

That’s the rub, isn’t it? Other than here, I have not heard anything about her damaging herself by supporting her former runningmate. As much as I detest him as a senator and want him to lose, he’s just not hated everywhere, like he’s hated here. Over 56 million people voted for McCain/Palin. Pesky fact.

What is the real difference?

2nd Amendment: Huck A+, McCain B-, Flipper F

Life: Huck A+, McCain B, Flipper F

Taxes: Huck B-, McCain F, Flipper C-

China: Huck B, McCain C-, Flipper F

Anti-Queer Agenda: Huck A, McCain B, Flipper F

Trade: Huck B, McCain D, Flipper C-

Defense SPending: Huck A, McCain B-, Flipper C

Global Warming: Huck D, McCain F-, Flipper F

Sovereignty: Huck B, McCain D, Flipper D

Crime: Huck F, McCain B, Romney F

Socialized Medicine: Huck C, McCain A-, Flipper FFFF-

Assault Weapons Ban: Huck A+, McCain B, Flipper F

EPA Bunk: Huck A, McCain D, Flipper F

EPA Bunk: Huck A, McCain D, Flipper F

Yeah, and Huck was for GLobal Warming before he was against it.

So your grade of A for Huck is really nonsensical.

[SoConPubbie]

Actually, your grading system is deficient.

If it were made only on the positions of the candidates in 2008, Flipper's would have been much better.

Conversely, the high grades you give Huck on some points would not be as high if his past was taken into account.

[pissant]

Global Warming was a separate category, out of the hands of the EPA back then. ALl the other Enviro nonsense Huck was good at fighting. Unlike FLipper and McCain who pushed it.

[pissant]

Grading system takes into account both former and current postions. It is 98.7% accurate.

[SoConPubbie]

Grading system takes into account both former and current postions. It is 98.7% accurate.

I sincerely doubt your accuracy.

Remember, I research out McCain, the Huckster and the Myth as much as anyone else.

[pissant]

There is a pecking order to their relative worthlessness. And Huck aint at the bottom. I recall McCain/Palin both talking up how important TARP was, and Romney was on it like a Vegas pimp. Huck was meanwhile tearing it apart.

[upsdriver]

I agree, I’d like so see McCain and others like him replaced. If I had to make a prediction, McCain is going to be re-elected. Hayworth may be better than McCain but who around here knows for sure? Every damn post about that election is about freepers intense hatred for McCain instead of the wonderful attributes of Hayworth. Seems to me the smarter thing to do would be to promote the positive aspects of electing J.D.Hayworth.

Now, as for Sarah support for McCain, a re-elected McCain is going to be indebted to Palin if she decides to run for president. Like it or not, he has significant pull with donors and other connections that Palin will be able to tap into. Before anyone has hissy fits over that thought, that does not mean Palin has to change her core beliefs. It means she has a more formidable power structure behind her. It is still up to us “average” Americans to help her over the hump so she can leverage and consolidate all party factions behind her. McCain just may be a valuable tool in bringing this about. Right now, who knows for sure?

[meadsjn]

She needs money. She needs experience. She needs name recognition. She’s doing all three, but not like someone who plans on running for President. I can’t really tell what her ambitions are. Maybe that’s the point.

Hmmm. Kinda like someone who has been reading Sun Tzu and similar stuff, and getting lots of advice from long-time practitioners of all kinds of strategery.

Future leaders should pay attention. This is the kind of stuff that features prominently in Academy curricula.

I guess you're getting a lesson in how some sarcasm can be too subtle for some to understand?

That's part of the fun, isn't it? The funny thing is I didn't think I was subtle, but today's libs and trolls are so dense that they might really say something like my post.

[Dagnabitt]

She’s certainly not helping herself by supporting flaming socialist McAmnesty

I do not know how her active support of a bag of disloyalty like McCain will affect her past the midterms. She might get away with it.

I more worried when she utters banalities like "I support John's position on immigration".

[Man50D]

Actaully, your questions have been asked and answered for about 2 months now...over, and over, and over.

You, however, have not once answered who you think is better right now.

Actually they haven't been answered. None of you you want to address why Palin stated her support for illegal aliens nor why she continues to support a flaming socialist. Instead you try to divert attention away from Palin by trying to kill the messenger. I'm not playing that game.

So? You ya want to replace Obama?

Not with someone else who supports amnesty.

[Man50D]

I think it’s been explained to you that the 2008 interview was SCRIPTED by McCain campaign handlers. Who over-managed Palin’s every public move from day one.

You think wrong. That's the first time you Sarahbots have used that excuse. If what you say is true then why do all of you insist she supports a flaming socialist out of loyalty knowing McAmensty set her up?

No Palin interview as McCain’s running mate, was driven by Palin’s own views.

If that's true then why did you Sarahbots insist during the 2008 campaign she had enough influence to change McAmnesty's socialist tendencies.

She was representing her boss. McCain at the time.

That statement not only conflicts you Sarahbots claiming during the 2008 campaign she would influence McAmnesty to be more Conservative but confirms the point I made that during the 2008 campaign that Palin must acquiesce to McAmnesty's socialist tendencies as all Vice Presidents must relent to their bosses point of view. She knew the consequences going in as his VP and she still accepted.

So why are you repeating that? Get over it. And who do you think is the best candidate?

Why do all of you keep diverting attention from her by attacking anyone who does not agree with her by pointing out she is not as conservative as she appears?

[Man50D]

Why are you showing a picture of Huckabee after claiming I support Paul? Apparently you Sarahbots assume anyone who doesn’t fawn over Palin supports anyone and everyone you don’t like.

[LibLieSlayer]

That is quite... Sarah!

The ONLY poll that matters today is how many people show up at appearances... no contest... the primaries will be the same. Bank on it.
