Yes, wonderful articles today and I pinged Sarah List maybe 4 or 5 times...I hate to over ping but we had such good news today!
“Sarah Palin’s Alaska” is TLC #1 show and her book “America by Heart” debued #2 on the NYT’s Best Seller List, right beneath GWB’s “Decision Points”!
#43 and #45! Woo-Hoo!
Quite reasonably, his book is number one -— and will likely remain number one. He’s been on every news show imaginable and of course she’s not been on one, but he’s also the former president and almost everyone wants to read how he made his decisions. I bought his book - hardcover and audio.
ROTFLOLOLOLOL.
Well, mine loves our Pug dog, too.
I felt the same, reading that. I had a hard time coming up with the words to express the depth of what that says to me.
I thought the word, "ineluctable" was a home run, but this........wow. I still can't find words to express what I'm thinking.
Hee hee.... lib heads exploding all over.
GO SARAH! All the way to the White House, baby!
You expressed your thoughts perfectly. I read the WVNan’s post with the pic of RWR and Sarah and I sat quietly....thinking...and followed the links until I read your comments. Unfortunately, my sweet husband has already ‘retired’ for the night, because I want his thoughts, which will have to wait until morning. I will ping Al B. He’s plenty smart enough to track our posts.
Oh yeah, and Glenn Beck’s book, “Broke” is #8....LOL.
He’s really hated. Ha ha ha. BOR’s “Pinheads and Patriots” has dropped to #14. I wouldn’t buy that one for a dollar.
“Then it’s just winning the nomination, defining the opponent, defining the issues and agenda and we’ve got President Palin.”
Gov Palin is a genius.
“McCain wrought more than he realised. Look it up. I like the “unmodified inheritance of ancestral character.””
Surely, Nostradamus must also have written something. Can anybody please enlighten?
That's why I said all laws should be made to expire , so they will self repeal. that is not how it is now. The democrats diabolically write a law and that program , agency and spending is mandatory forever until some other law or amendment repeals it.
You , as most people do (at least those who even think of this) believe wrongly can Congress can just defund some program like social security without passing a law and that's where you all are mistaken as the liberal media wants all you to be uninformed to make it easier to blame Republicans as they blamed them last time.
I said make all laws expire after 3 years.
Then only the laws that are really wanted are kept.
If you can’t make all laws you need in 3 years or so then you are not for limited government. Enjoy your socialism.
It floored me too Windflier. I’ve been holding her in prayer all day. As one who knows a little bit of Hebrew, I know how God puts emphasis on the meaning of words. Words are like “things” in the Old Testament. I got the word from a commenter on the American Thinker article. I want to give them credit. It blew me away and I wanted to get it out there. I sent it via e-mail to Conservative4 Palin in hopes that she will see it.
plenty of rebels in NH who like to support the outsider vs. the establishment. I’m lookin’ forward to it.
Good luck. Most conservatives have left New Hampshire...most of your ‘rebels’ are Free Staters and progressives. (Look how the GOP state party cut Jennifer Horn off at the knees...) After reading the vicious comments in the local papers over the past months; I don’t think Sarah has a chance in NH (if she runs, of course)...hope I’m wrong.
Congress must write a new law to defund what funding is mandated in another law.
For example Obamacare. To defund all or most of that then the Republican House must pass a new law. But then the Senate will block it or the President will veto it. same for social security,medicare,medicaid etc. Bush and Republicans wanted to privatize social security but the media and democrats stopped them.
There is some discretionary spending that is in appropriations bills but most spending democrats diabolically mandated that spending in law. Mandatory Spending is WRITTEN in law.. Congress and the President must follow the law too. The media wants everyone to believe that the Congress and or President make the budget somehow every year. That is a lie and I see that even after posting links even on here people just don't get it.
This is a quote from a web site:
http://wonkroom.thinkprogress.org/?p=29710Mandatory spending, such as Medicare and Medicaid, continues from year to year unless Congress passes new legislation to reduce it; discretionary spending, which covers most of the day-to-day operations of federal agencies, is appropriated every year in annual appropriations bills. It’s far easier for Congress to adjust an appropriations mark than muster the political support to pass new legislation to defund the new Medicaid expansion or affordability credits to middle class Americans
That is not what is going on.
It is ridiculous to think that Congress every year goes through hundreds of thousands of pages of Laws and tries to figure out if every line or paragraph of legalese mandating some spending will be “funded” or not and how that relates to the other thousands of agencies and programs..
Most spending is mandatory , written in diabolically by democrats to be permanent , mandatory , forever and growing , automatic. This is why Congress has too much power. Almost anything they can imagine can become law if lawyers write it.
I wonder how many people don't understand how Congress works. No wonder the country keeps moving to the left.
No doubt, someone's going to show it to her at some point. She's far too humble to let it go to her head, but I'm sure she'll get a kick out of it.
On the other hand, she may look at the obvious message in those words, and feel strengthened in her purpose to lead America back to greatness.
Thanks for sharing it with all of us. I immediately saved it to my computer as soon as I saw it.
Congress has too much power?.. Congress has the power of the purse..
What they fund gets funded or continues to get funded..
What they UNfund or UNderfund gets UNfunded..or UNderfunded..
A corrupt people elect a corrupt Congress...
ELSE they would UNcorrupt it..
We have the government NOW that reflects the American people..
If americans get more circumspect they will elect a more circumspect government..
Congress has exactly the power they want and deserve..
ALL legislation(funding) begins and ends in the House of Representatives..
IF the House does not pass it, it does not get funded or enacted..
The House can end Executive Orders by a vote to do just that.. even over the Presidents VETO..
The House can limit the Presidents power.. the President cannot limit Congress's power..
Oh, come on, you know that’s not how it works on FR.:)
Also she Quicker in getting her words out, then any politician in the last 50 years, this is a sign she says what she believes!
Finally, someone who tells the Truth,
She a woman, some seems to think a women can’t run this country, that’s another reason why she needs to be the first women President!
She would do a lot to hurt men having sex with men lifestyle,
Normal would be back in again!
That’s probably the biggest reason that the anti Palin freepers keeping spurring out all the same negatives Reagan lived with, yes, our token liberal democrat Trolls and with their sick lifestyle)!
I wonder if “pissant” is a LOG CABIN REPUBLICAN?
Now his name makes sense!
