What Sarah Palin said last November is all well and good, but...

She’s been pretty silent lately, PARTICULARLY concerning “the budget crisis”, debt-ceiling crisis, or whatever you want to call what’s going on in Congress right now.

If the lady has serious intentions to lead The United States, I would suggest she post a paper or make an announced speech on just what SHE would propose as president.

Something that gets into the news NOW. Not yesterday’s speech which is yesterday’s news - which is what your post really is.

BTW, I don’t post as a Palin critic. She’s my #1 choice. But these days, I cast a skeptical eye towards them all — everybody, no exceptions.

Mrs. Palin, please say something, and say it soon!

Just sayin’....

Lame Duck President

...and her interview with Greta the other night:

I don’t think Mrs. Palin should divuldge her plan. barry could steal it and claim power.

We have a felon _resident with a CT SS# (to avoid NY taxes), using an alias that got his law lic revoked (not declaring them all).

SC is bought and paid for I’m afraid.

She has spoken out on Fox a couple of days ago, and hopefully she will put our an op ed on the subject as you suggest.

Great idea.

She has been on several shows in the last few days, actually, but yeah, I kinda wish she was more out there during this critical period. Maybe her not being in the race yet is dimming her otherwise commanding media attention.

She has said on those shows she doesn’t favor raising the debt ceiling, but if it’s going to be raised anyway, that Cut Cap and Balance was the way to go.

You do realize that by posting this message on her FB page, she disseminated it to well over 3 million people, right?

Be patient. I trust her to know when. The earth will move. Keep your powder dry my friend. I’m really working hard on the patience thing myself, but I believe. She’s been right so far. Like they say, Lull them to sleep and then WHAM!!!.

She has not been quiet on the debt ceiling debate, are you insane, she said she supported Cut Cap and Balance!!!! Where has Mitt Romney or Tim Pawlenty been. Bachmann was not even there to vote on the frickin’ bill, Give Sarah a Break. Did you not read Sarah’s Facebook post call the Lameduck President.

“I don’t post as a Palin critic.”

It seems that you kinda just did.

Palin has not been in the loop of the ongoing negotiations taking place behind the scenes. She would have been a fool for cracking a whip without knowing all of the pieces. Taking the blame for failed negotiations could, and likely would have, been placed on her head.

She’s doing just fine.

The folks that were ELECTED to fix these complicated problems can either fix these problems or die on the hill.

Gov. Palin has been out front posting in writing and saying what she proposes to do as President more than anyone else ever since she took the decision to resign as Governor of Alaska! What else could she say or write that would satisfy you?

Ragarding this particular “budget crisis”, she has been out there, but just like Boehner says negotiating with Obama is like negotiating with jello, the Republicans plans change daily too, to the point when I write my congressman on how I want him to vote based on whatever Republican plan the “leadership” is out there proposing at the time, the plan changes too fast too keep up with.

I’ve concluded that we have a duly sworn legislative body of representatives, who we the people have delegated the authority to act in our name, and they are going to do what they are going to do, mostly behind closed doors - no matter what any private citizen tells them to do, whether their name is Grumplestiltskin or (ex)Governor Palin.

“Mrs. Palin, please say something, and say it soon”

Why are people always demanding that Palin do what she’s been doing better than anyone else all along?

Your post is like asking Babe Ruth to play baseball, or Winston Churchill to make political decisions.

Asking Palin to comment on the budget crisis or on what’s going on in Congress is like asking Da Vinci to paint pictures, or asking Einstein to do a little science.
