Yeah, I don't get it. Isn't this kind of thread exactly what these people supposedly hate?
Based on the level of personal disdain for Palin, you would think she's responsible for the policies of porous borders, the illegals infestation, TARP, the mortgage debacle, letting the ChiComs walk all over us, and failing to vet 0bama as President.
McCain's RINO staff chose her as VP because they thought she would take the blame for McCain's patsy campaign. They were wrong.
All she's done since is helped energize the conservative base and Tea Party, and call out 0bama, and annoy the hell out of the Left, Karl Rove, Big Momma Bush, Kathleen Parker, and several other RINO elites. Oh - and she has written a book and made LOTS of money after getting harassed and her life ridiculed every day of her life for a year straight.
Her "sin" is supporting blowhard McCain in the AZ Senate primary - I didn't like it, but there IS the bigger picture. The forest for the trees and all that.
Just so you know most/many of these posters are long-time trolls, if you will. Their tone and purpose is always the same, no matter who the conservative candidate, office holder, or talk show host “in the news or in trouble”.
Year after year...the game and the talking points are the same.
And always, always, remarkably like the DNC/MSM war room!
McCain's staff chose her because McCain made the huge mistake of going Affirmative Action.
"It seems that a lot of women are upset about the way Hillary has been treated. Find me a VP candidate that has two X chromosomes, is conservative to appease those people who call me a RINO and has executive experience such as being a Governor."
"Senator McCain, the search turn up only one name. Sarah Palin."
"Who?"
"Sarah Palin. The Governor of Alaska ... That big empty land up north that has half the population of San Diego, California. She has been Governor about 2 years. Before, that, she was Mayor of a town of less than 6,000."
"Is there anybody else that meets the three criteria?"
"Nope."
"Well, we need a woman and we need a conservative. She's my VP choice."
Face reality. If Barack Obama's father had been a Swedish graduate student and Obama had been a white, blond, blue-eyed junior Senator from Illinois named Barry Olsen with very little experience, nobody would have considered him qualified to be a Presidential candidate.
If Sarah Palin had been born a man, nobody would have considered her qualified to be a Vice Presidential candidate.
Both Barack Obama and Sarah Palin are the product of an Affirmate Action selection process and America deserves better in the Oval Office.
