CNN, San Francisco Chronicle, Denver Post and ADN cover Sarah Palin's speech + local news coverage of student protestors & every move Sarah Palin makes.

Did you notice the vid of Ashli Briggs at the link? she is one of the dumpster divers, IIRC.
bttt
According to some junk mail I got yesterday Palin has endorsed Todd Tiahrt for Brownback’s senate seat in KS. I guess she didn’t bother to look at Club for Growths ratings on fiscal issues. Lynn Jenkins scored 100% out of 100%. Jim Moran (running against Tiahrt) scored 96% and Tiahrt came in at 29%. He voted for a bunch of pork and I won’t vote for him.
ok...you are now to be drawn and quartered by the pack...,torn limb from limb..how dare you?
lol
I love Sarah but will criticize her when I feel like it
Some here have appropriated her like they did Bush and tolerate ZERO criticism
Good luck sis.
This guy claims different.
“Club for Growth gives slight nod to Tiahrt over Moran
by Bob Weeks on June 21, 2010”
Snip
“That caveat aside, let’s look at how the Club ranked members of the Kansas House delegation, particularly Todd Tiahrt and Jerry Moran. These two are candidates for the Republican party nomination for the U.S. Senate. It is commonly thought that the winner of this August Republican primary election will cruise to victory in the November general election.
One of the themes in the election — promoted especially by the Tiahrt campaign — is who is the most conservative candidate. So the Club for Growth scorecard is an important measure for someone promoting conservative, pro-growth credentials.
On the Club’s scorecard for 2009, Tiahrt earned a rating of 90 percent, which ranks him 64th among members of the U.S. House according to Club for Growth’s criteria.
Moran scored 85 percent, which ranks 94th.
(A higher rating means more votes in alignment with the Club’s positions. Other Kansas House members are the second district’s Lynn Jenkins, a Republican from Topeka, who scored 87 percent, ranking 83rd, and Democrat Dennis Moore of the third district in northeast Kansas, who scored four percent with a ranking of 297th. On the Senate rankings, Sam Brownback scored 85 percent, ranking 24th among the 100 members of the Senate. Pat Roberts scored 93 percent, ranking 19th.)”
Here is the link from the Club for Growth web site, showing those rankings.

Oh mannnnnnnnnnnnn. I bet that’s gonna hurt! Thanks for the laugh!
All things considered it will be an interesting primary. Tiahrt and Moran have been at each others throats since they started campaigning.
Your lecturing statement is ironic. There are many things you didn't bother to look at including the lastest Club for Growth ratings.
I would also recommend that you compare their FAIR ratings. I believe Moran gets a zero.
Please see post # 11. Your lecturing is ironic.
What is “ironic” is that Club for Growth rates Tiahrt higher than both Moran and Lynn Jenkins.
“Tiahrt to Receive Defender of Economic Freedom Award”
WICHITA, KS - Congressman Todd Tiahrt’s (R-Goddard) U.S. Senate campaign today announced that Tiahrt will receive the “Defender of Economic Freedom Award” from the Club for Growth for his rating on their 2009 Congressional Scorecard. Congressman Tiahrt outscored his opponent on the CFG scorecard which ranks each member on their pro-growth, fiscal conservative votes on both the newest 2009 scorecard as well as in the lifetime rating. Cong. Tiahrt and Sen. Roberts will be the only members of the Kansas delegation to receive the “Defender of Economic Freedom Award” for 2009.
No it isn't.
Your looking at old Cub for Growth data when new data is available, plus you not considering the FAIR data (and other data) and then you lecturing Palin for "not bothering to look" is ironic.
Sorry.
Actually, the problem isn't criticism of Palin but the personal and untrue attacks on her.
FR Palin supporters just want her detractors to be honest and not base their arguments on the false MSM talking points.
Nobody agrees with someone else 100% of the time and Palin is no exception. I'm tired of the misconception that no criticism of Palin is allowed.
I’m not sure why you are pumping up Tiahrt. Are you going to vote for him and what is fair?
I didn't.
If you were to ask me my opinion on the candidates in the race I would give a slight preference for Tiahrt based on the information that I've seen so far. But I haven't endorsed anybody, yet.
Are you going to vote for him and what is fair?
I don't vote in Kansas.
FAIR is the Federation for Amercian Immgration Reform.
If you wish to make the case that Moran is the better candidate, the floor is yours.
Your perceived misconception is my reality. And it is being fostered in part by some of the same harpies who ruled here on W's behalf in his second term and left in a huff over Rudi. Now some of them are back and doing the same over Sarah. Which shows how inconsistent they are in their ideology and are more about cult of personality than firmly held values or as they just support as they would say..."who they think can win".
No it isn't, you have become childish, post 6 is nothing.
