“Don’t care how, I want it nowwwww!”
Posted on 10/01/2011 5:39:45 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum
Just saw this story in the NYTimes speculating on whether Ms. Governor-of-Alaska-for-a-while Sarah Palin will announce she is running for president.
I am fascinated that Utah’s Oct. 15 deadline for a list of potential candidates is the first hint that we’ll see, nation-wide, that she intends to toss her hat (expensive like last time?) into the ring.
Other than that, who cares? All the other GOP candidates have flamed out — the latest Great Political Hope (a hint at the old “Great White Hope” construction, but Cain is black) Texas Gov. Perry is in the process of making a ass out of himself, proposing to get American Troops involved in the Mexican drug war, as if we don’t already have our troops involved in enough expensive quagmires around the world. Perry is apparently doing this to look tough on immigration because his statements that letting school children of immigrants stay in school was being humane was apparently was too wishy-washy for the Tea Party crowd, and these brave bold leaders in the GOP don’t dare offend the tea party.
Seriously, they all do it. The Tea Party crowd — old white rich and pissed off Republicans — farts and these guys all change their minds to demand it smells like roses. Are they really leaders? Or followers?
And who are they following? Old white rich and pissed off Republicans.
The GOP presidential race is looking more and more like a clown car with a never-ending supply of clowns. It would be funny if it weren’t so sad.
Meanwhile, the eyes of the world watch UTAH! Whoot!
Indeed he did!! Woo-Hoo!!
“Don’t care how, I want it nowwwww!”
Posting from leftist blog now — that says more about you.
Who is this Charles Trentelman loser, anyway?
I may be pissed off and white, but I’m not old and I’m not rich.
Trentelman apparently has never seen a woman, black, or young person at a TEA Party rally. Anyone who has actually been to a rally HAS.
Utah is not critical. It doesn’t matter if Sarah runs or not, Romney will carry Utah by an insane margin like he did last time.
They're acting like a bunch of spoiled, snot-nosed brats who care more about their own selfish "Me, now!" timing demands than Palin running the most tactically brilliant campaign possible. It's healthy to see their self-centered petulance pilloried with a photo that nails 'em where they breathe.
Well done, Unum. Like looking in their mirror for the pukes... let 'em gag on it.

Quick, somebody dial nine-wahh-wahHH! We need a Wahmbulance here... the big mean Palin supporters went and changed Chesty! You sit tight, I'll get you some tissues, honey...
LMAO!!!!

All war is based on deception, and all elections are wars of attrition. Sarah P. has already attrited Pawlenty without firing a shot, and if Huntsman is still in a week from now I would be amazed. The primary is a slog, and entering early guarantees flameout. Palin is a political genius, a strategic thinker, and an attriter extraordinaire.
Will you please stop spamming every Palin thread stupid ?
So far, you're the only person I've seen complain about it. Perhaps it's just turning you off.
I think it perfectly depicts all of the Palin detractors who are whining about Palin not letting them in on her precise strategic timing.
Good grief.
"I used to support the Constitution and the Founding Fathers, but those weird Tea Party people finally turned me off of all that."
Oh please. Stop with the "cultist" drama already. Palin supporters aren't doing anything but defending their chosen candidate (as yet unannounced!) from overzealous detractors and demented serial trolls.
Go to any other candidate's threads, and you'll see the same thing. When you condemn the serial Palin trolls like you just did to the Palin supporters, you'll actually sound credible.
Thanks for the info. I think she could technically afford to ignore Utah - If she any chance of beating Romney there, the campaign is already over. Still, it’s unseemly to “blow off “ any state.

...............Texas Gov. Perry is in the process of making a ass out of himself, proposing to get American Troops involved in the Mexican drug war............,
Please! This writer is so out of touch with reality that my adjective pool this morning won’t work for him!
I am totally in for Sarah, live in Austin, have met Perry and Perry is number two for me after Sarah under the ABO theory. Moreover, Perry is an Aggie and both my kids graduated from A & M.
And, the reason I am not jumping up and down for Perry is, in a word, immigration. But, to say he is making an ass out of himself over troops in Mexico is imbecilic. That is exactly what it took to defeat the narcos in Columbia and it is exactly what it is going to take to defeat them in Mexico. So, the writer, NOT Perry, is making “an ASS” out of himself.

Are you saying that even is she is the uniformly most wonderful candidate you wouldn't support her because SOME of the people who DO support her are a little too enthusiastic for you?
