Why would anyone like Sarah Palin?
The Auburn Journal ^ | February 21, 2011

Posted on 02/21/2011 9:12:54 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

I am beginning to question myself as to why I ever liked Sarah Palin. Why would I like someone that has faith in religion? Why on earth, would I like someone that has faith in her country for crying out loud? Why would I have faith in someone with values?

Granted, there are those people out there such as Lady Gaga and Madonna to look up to, but Sarah? She didn’t enjoy being governor of Alaska, they say-thank goodness she stepped down! She didn’t want being under the microscope of the press to interfere with her job as governor! Such gall to step down after that!

She wants jobs for Americans IN America? How dare she!! She wants factories here on OUR precious soil, to create manufacturing jobs?? Not In My Back Yard she’s not! Not only that, but she actually smiles for the camera’s that hound her relentlessly! No frowny looks for the media to have a field day with! How dare she smile! How dare she make a buck off of the liberals that cannot get enough of her! She actually makes my eyes glaze over when she goes on and on about how much untouched oil America has too! Good thing we don’t have our own oil supply so the gas can climb to the sky, with all the Mid-East turmoil!

Wow, and guns-she does love those gun rights of Americans. I bet she even uses her second amendment rights and owns more than one gun, gosh darn it! And she kills animals and EATS them too! And so does her family! No going to the store for packaged meat for HER family. She actually practices what she preaches! She should take a lesson from Michelle Obama. Tell the country to eat correctly and then head to Vale, Colorado for a ski vacation on our country’s dime. And while she is there, have servings of ribs at 1500 calories per serving with 120 grams of fat. I am starting to think what a fool I have been for being so dang blind! Sheesh!!

Is that like the Falcon Party, who’s convention is held in a VW Beetle and catered by a small hot dog cart?

If the principle you speak of is life, then I'd rather see babies saved one, two, four ten, etc. states at a time, then none at all. If the principle is the Constitution, I'd rather see the Feds not involved where there is no reasonable justification for them to be. Ridiculous to pretend one can't have personality and principles.

Maybe she realized that anyone at a State level judicial position would have absolutely NO effect on abortion laws, so why would it matter?

State courts rule on legislation restricting abortion on a regular basis. Having to a appoint a pro-abortion justice could result in the recently passed parental consent law in Alaska being overturned. One judge in Alaska in December already rendered as decision that weakened that law there.

I don't favor Romney over anyone. He is the last candidate I would support.

But, yes, any Republican thinking about running is a better candidate that Palin -- and get this through your head -- IF THE OBJECTIVE IS TO BEAT OBAMA.

Are you telling me the fact polls show Palin behind in red states like South Dakota, South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee and Arizona doesn't concern you? Her poll numbers are worse than any viable Republican nominee IN THIRTY YEARS.

I see NO evidence that Palin can overcome her negative poll numbers, especially given her abrasive, pit bull personality. She turns off independents.

SO TELL ME WHY HER NEGATIVE POLL NUMBERS AREN'T A CONCERN. Or do you prefer to live a fantasy world and not face the reality that a Palin nomination will likely hand Obama a second term?

I was one of the leading opponents of Romney in the last election at this website. Look in the archives.

Again, I'm sick of delusional fools that want to stick us with a candidate that is already buried in the polls rather than looking at BETTER conservative alternatives like Herman Cain and Michele Bachmann.

So does bin laden. Not comparing, just saying that there are many reasons to like SP but this particular one does not de facto convey respectability.

Liberals bashed Bush relentless, too. Does that mean you think he was a great or conservative President?

Liberals bashed on Christine O'Donnell while delusional types here fooled themselves into thinking she could overcome polls showing she had no chance of winning. THE POLLS WERE RIGHT.

We are letting liberals pick our candidate by choosing someone based on who they are attacking rather than looking at what conservative has the best chance of beating Obama.

And, I support Herman Cain and Michele Bachmann. Tell me why either isn't a better choice than Palin given they won't start out in the polls behind in states Republican Presidential candidates automatically win?

No, she quit. That is what she did. That is what she will be judged by when the necessary 70,000,000 voters cast their ballots should we be stupid enough to give her the nomination.

Andrew Jackson quit from the Senate and then 2 1/2 years later he was elected president.

I've pointed this out numberous times to you and you ignore it.

Now, were the people who voted for and elected Andrew Jackson, "stupid"?

Answer the question.

Sheesh, where to begin.

First of all, and speaking of delusional, you have no proof whatsoever that the polls are accurate.

Next, I would also point out that Reagan was buried in the "accurate" polls before he was elected.

And finally, since you are so in to polls, why don't you document for all here what the poll numbers of Bachmann and Cain are against Obuma.

“You either believe in states rights, or you don’t.”
‘That’s not the question.’

That is exactly the question. Nowhere does the Constitution give the Federal Government the authority to regulate this matter, and it certainly doesn’t give a leftard majority on the Supreme Court the authority to hallucinate “penumbras” and wrest this power from “the states respectively, or...the people.”

If you want to amend the Constitution to prohibit abortion, I’m okay with that. But as it stands, the position you attribute to Palin (and I’m not taking your word for that) is the Constitutional position.

The Supreme Court unconstitutionally took the matter out of the hands of the people with a gibberish decision. They went that way because the people refused to legalize baby-killing.

Turn the matter back to the states and the people, and I am confident they will act morally.

Or go for a constitutional amendment. Either way, bad-mouthing people who actually read and understand the constitution is hardly productive.

“As I stated, no real pro-lifer would keep praising a pro-abortion justice that she was forced into appointing.”

Seems to me that a real pro-lifer would base comments on a judge’s actual performance. For all I know, that pro-abortion judge has established a fine record since she was appointed. Perhaps she’s had a change of heart. Or perhaps the greater responsibility has caused her to consider herself more tightly bound by the Constitution.

Do you know differently? (And please don’t go running to an anti-Palin site for cherry-picked distortions.)

“In two provisions of that document, there is an explicit ban on the killing of the innocent, and an imperative demand that the states ALL provide for the equal protection of the laws to ALL persons.”

The states? Like you say Governor Palin advocates?

You want us to believe Fox News and Rasmussen are inaccurate, too, when they show Palin further behind Obama than another Republican candidate?

Palin does NOT compare to Reagan. Reagan NEVER had the negatives or negative name recognition Palin has. And, Reagan was one of the best campaigners in American history. Palin's pit bull personality turns off independents and undecideds. She is too abrasive to ever have mass appeal.

And, what if the polls are right and people like you give us a candidate that is unelectable? Do you think an apology would even be sufficient at that point? This nation can't afford four more years of Obama. If Palin is the nominee and gets destroyed, the whole conservative movement will be set back a decades because the loss will be blamed on conservatism rather than the fact that Republicans nominated a lousy candidate.

If Palin really cares about the issues she claims to, she won't run.
