I didn’t like Katie Couric’s treatment, but Charlie was a bonified dick.

FR posters and Libs agree so that means she cannot win. Lastly, she ‘clearly’ cannot win.

Besides, You can see Russia from Alaska; proof positive that she may not be a real citizen, but a "Manchurian" plant.....Oh, wait, we already got one of them.

The same insane dynamics that allowed the abomination of an Obama presidency are what we need to worry about - as you pointed out, even FR folks will take the bait and add to the insanity. God help us!

I do not see a lot of Republicans defending her. Where’s the GOP?



They are busy trying to do everything they can to make sure she doesn't get the nomination because they are scared that if she becomes their boss they will get the boot too when she cleans house . They would rather keep their jobs and not be the party in power and to hell with what the people think.

They are absent even on issues they are for.
The GOP is always in a defensive position. Yesterday I heard Shumer rambling some drivel as to how the Repubs were going to kill women and children or some such.
Why can't the GOP get out in front of these issues?? Show the benefits of a piece of legislation instead of having to defend themselves from idiotic hyperbole.

I recently received my super secret numbered ballot from the RNC.
Asked push poll questions concerning issues. And , of course, ending with begging for a donation.

Diagonally across the return 'ballot' I wrote in 4" letters with a Sharpie.

PALIN.

Per Jack Wheeler, he has been told she will announce her candidacy on JULY 4TH.

[He had no way to confirm this, but that was what he was told by a close connection to Sarah.]

If he's right, we will know soon!

From xfinitytv.comcast.net:

She did promise that if she ever announces that she’s running,
she’ll announce it first on this Anchorage morning show
apparently the "The Bob and Mark Show" on KWHL-FM, "K-Whale."
From KWHL.com/airtimes_schedule: click here to LISTEN LIVE!

Monday Through Friday

5:35am - 10:00am [Alaska time] - Bob and Mark

Freedom_Is_Not_Free:
For years my brother alerted me to the bias in the media. I had a hard time seeing it. Even after I began to see it, I still had a hard time because they were so subtle and crafty in hiding it.

They aren’t subtle any more. They aren’t even trying to put up a pretense of objectivity anymore. They are transparent. Anybody who today can’t see the extreme left bias in the US media is willfully blind to it. No othe reason. None.
Back in 1964 I was hanging out with a guy who's family used to vacation on Cape Cod every summer. On their visits he and his brother would throw messages in bottles into the outgoing tide. One year they got a reply from someone in Spain and the local paper covered the story; pictures of the brothers, quotes, and all. They had clippings, of course.

A quote showed up in the published article that neither one of them had actually said -- an actual "quote" with those little " things at each end. Ever since hearing that, I assume that anything I read, hear, or see could be made up. Not necessarily "is," but very well "could."

Apology accepted. I’m not trying to start a fight. You’re point is well-taken. I probably am expecting the GOP to be people of honor, which is my mistake. It’s also rather sad that we can’t expect that.

Well, that's less than 24 hours from now, so we'll soon see how accurate that rumor is.

My guess is that she won't announce before July 26, when the clock on those frivolous law suits finally runs out, and she may not even announce until Labor Day.

She's got lots of time. Seems there's a pressure building for her to jump in right now, but I believe she senses that it's still too early. The rest are all slugging it out, but I think she'd rather stay out until that brawl settles down.

When it does, there are going to be a bunch of unconscious bodies on the floor, with only a couple left standing. Sarah will be fresh to the fight, and they'll have little oomph left in them to challenge her.

Besides, who wants to campaign for 18 months? The length of presidential primaries is becoming ridiculous.

You may be correct.

Still, it's hard to beat the POWER of announcing on such a special day as the Fourth of July.

True, true. I can hardly think of a better day, but I doubt that Sarah would be so bold as to upstage our nation's birthday party like that. Not her style.

I'd lean more toward September 12th, if she were going to pick a historically significant date that people resonate to.
