‘Snowden is not the problem’ Palin says
The Daily Caller ^ | June 16, 2013 | Breanna Deutsch and Sarah Harvard

Posted on 06/16/2013 4:38:44 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Sarah Palin energized a group of social conservatives at the Faith and Freedom Coalition’s Road to Majority Conference Saturday, blasting the Obama Administration’s apparent lawlessness, calling the current state of America “Orwellian,” and urging the United States to stay out of Syria’s chaotic and brutal civil war.

In comments to the Daily Caller, the 2008 candidate for vice president also declined to join many of her fellow Republicans in condemning National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden, saying the real problem was the government’s violation of Americans’ rights.

In her speech, Palin called the current political atmosphere, rife with scandals, a “a symptom of a bigger disease,” expressing outrage over the Internal Revenue Service’s targeting of conservative nonprofits.

“You don’t marginalize everyday, average Americans. Those, who are part of the Tea Party, that want to protect the constitution,” said the former Alaska Governor. “The IRS can’t figure out how it spent $4 million dollars on a training conference because it lost its receipts… really?”

The 2008 GOP Vice-Presidential nominee said President Obama has lost the trust of the American people.

“Like the other day,” she said ”[Director of National Security Intelligence James Clapper] bragging that they used the ‘least untruthful statement.’ Now, where I come from that is called a lie. Yes, the officials lied and government spied — and in Benghazi government lied and Americans died.”(continued)

I’d elect Vlad Tepes.

Ahem... I'm going to put the freezer pops in the freezer and take a long walk away from you, eyes darting to ID sharp tree trunks.

OUCH.

None of these mouth breathers know who Tepes is, anyway.

They really should stop feeding my narcissism. It’s unhealthy ;) Funny thing is I mentioned the Nar thing earlier on the thread and this twit confirmed it.

Are you calling me a thief? Was that a personal attack?

If you have proof of that, you should present it to a local grand jury.

And prepare for the splash-back.

I’m just clocking in for driftdiver’s break.

I can’t WAIT for the next Snowden shell to drop - that’s the thread, if anyone remembers, having been hijacked by the NO LESSER EVIL crowd - and I expect hard evidence that POSHITUS used data ‘correction’ to win ‘12.

You’re an IT guy, I’m an IT guy, we know how these things boil out. I want Snowden to release the Database Schemas for us to analyze, in addition to the transmogrication of what the - THANK GOD! - Guardian is posting for the LIVers.

Don’t stop him now Johnny! He’s proving just how petty one can get when they PROVE that principles don’t matter. Hopefully all the lurkers remember it the next time he or his cohorts pop up to spread the gospel of lesser evil.

Yep, it sure is working. And people refuse to change tactics despite losing for the last several decades.

“And people refuse to change tactics despite losing for the last several decades.”

When DD finds out some hacked his account and posted that, he’s gonna be mad. Because repeating the mistakes of decades is what DD has pushed for on this thread and others like it with his lesser evil worship.

Bear in mind there are some sissies on FR who will hit the ‘report abuse’ button when they feel seiged, knowing the moderaters never actually research what led to the ‘report abuse’ ping.

They use those as scalps later down in the thread.
