‘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)

“Nobody is ever conservative enough for conservatives.”

A flow of alien invaders limited only by the number of restless Mexican citizens and pass-thrus of other nationalities is not compatible with the notion that the U. S. of America is a sovereign nation with self-defined and strictly defended geographic borders. If this is too conservative to be politically viable, then we must concede to Democrats their permanent electoral majority, marking their ballots legally or not.

Nope...

Does this woman need to be a foreign policy expert to run the United States???
Nope...

Does this person need to be a Lawyer to run the United States???
Nope...

Does this woman need to be a Constitutional expert to rune the United States???
Not at all...

Does this woman need to be a business person to run the United States???
Of course not...Presidents have thousands of expert advisers to give expert advice...

So what DO we need???

You won't get my help on winning any with the GOP-E. I'd rather vote for the dope-smoking libertarian. They can't cause more damage.

Don't kill babies in the womb. Don't try to ban guns. Don't support larger government.

I'll vote for that candidate.

Please explain in detail why a GOP liberal winning and governing like a Democrat is better than just electing a Democrat.

Cut the crap and tell us. Because the Romney theory of political science has very few defenders here anymore in light of the GOP’s post election theatrics.

Cheney, and anyone who thinks that way, is a statist prick who can go F themselves. The problem is a criminal government, and anyone (John Bolton, Dick Cheney, Michelle Bachman) who does not see it this way, well then they are part of the problem too.

Yes but without a fair crack of the whip no election can be won.

No. That is an excuse. Obama did not make the GOP do the crap they do. Obama or his minions did not make Romney do all the crap he did. Obama is not responsible for the GOP and the win at any cost GOP ignoring his treason/crimes against America. Obama is not responsible for all the lesser evil GOP jumping on board the immigration amnesty train.

Still waiting to hear you rationalize supporting Cruz/Palin and condemning people sticking to principle in the same breath.

Fox News should revive crossfire.

Every night a debate for the heart and soul of a Conservative Republic Party.

Arguing for elitist weinies that presently control the party would be the eunuch, Karl Rove and arguing for grass roots that presently have no voice would be a woman with balls, Sarah Palin.

No. He's not an (R). The damage comes from internal rot. We can fight the external stuff. But the internal rot from the GOP-E?

Nah. That's the most corrosive.

And hero... I won't vote for your boys anymore, and you can't shame me into it.
