“For all of the invective that has been aimed at me, please tell me, quote me, or somehow indicate where I said I hated Sarah, couldn’t stand her, anything like that.” That’s what I posted to you. You then proceeded to selectively pull from some previous posts that showed NOTHING that I asked you to show me but you finished up with a flourish and a grand “Ta-Daa!”
So, since you’re lazy and disinterested in the truth, I went back and selectively pulled from some of my responses to show what I want to show.
Here ya go:
“Sarah is a very popular figure with conservatives. Her book sales (I own and have read both of them) and personal
appearances have drawn the kinds of crowds that Obama can only dream of, today. Were she to have run for elected office, her popularity would make her a shoo-in. I would have LOVED to see candidate Palin “nuking” not only the other ‘Pubbies in the field we had, but her opponent Obama during the debates. But she didn’t because she wasn’t a candidate.
She chose to say little about him during the election and, most important, she chose not to run. Then, AFTER the dust has settled, the election has been held between Obama and a lackluster candidate like Romney, she comes out and “nukes” her would-be opponent. That’s not a position statement, that’s sniping.
Some here have postulated that 2016 is HER time. I don’t think so. After 4 more years of Obama, all she will have left is to sweep up the ashes of a once great country and toss them into the dustbin of history. We needed Sarah now. America needed Sarah now. By 2016, we will be broke, militarily weak and just one more third world country thinking it has significance in the world.
In case you haven’t noticed, we have already become the America that Ayn Rand described at the end of Atlas Shrugged. Corrupt, bloated government, union thugs, anti-business environment and phony environmental concerns. Our Constitution has been fed into the shredder as has the rule of law. All that’s missing is Galt’s Gulch. After another 4 years of Obama, what will Sarah be able to do except fall short of our needs and expectations. Our money will be so valueless that bread could end up costing about $25/loaf. We already have been warned that milk may rise to $6/gal. NEXT YEAR So, what will there be for Sarah to fix? We will either be in revolt or in absolute chaos.
If she wants to position herself to run for some office in 2016, she needs to stop sniping at Obama. That’s a Democrat
tactic (campaigning against the past). She needs to start expressing her vision for America, what she would do as POTUS to restore America to that “shining city on the hill” as Reagan described it.

But, by 2016, America will be such a third-world dirthole there will be nothing to do but help bury the ashes of what was once a great country. Her time was this year. The need was this year. 4 more years of Obama will leave us broke, militarily weak and just one more third world country thinking we still have significance in the world.
If Sarah chose to sit out this election for whatever reason, that’s her business. I have no issue with that. However, after choosing not to run, attacking the policies and style of someone who would have been her opponent in this last election is simply sniping.
A lot of posters here have attacked me for expressing my opinion of her remarks. As if we couldn’t tell, I’m not
presidential material, she is. I have never run for public office and never will. She has successfully held elected
office and may do so again. These are major distinctions between her expressing her opinions about Obama and me
expressing my opinion about her expressing her opinion.
I would LOVE to have seen candidate Palin smoking Obama and the other so-called ‘Pubbies during the debates, but we idn’t get that chance. If or when we ever do, it will not be an epic battle between her and America’s worst, most corrupt, most anti-American, non-natural born, ineligible and radical president. It will likely be against either Joe Biteme, whom a 2 year-old could smoke, or HilLIARy who has gotten where she is because of her lies and the Clinton machine.
These are major differences. And, if she wants to be a candidate in 2016, for God’s sake, she doesn’t need to run against Obama, that’s a Democrat tactic (campaigning against the past). She needs to express her own vision of America, of America’s exceptionalism and how she will work to restore America to greatness.”
Here ya go:
Sorry, but Like I said you tipped your Hand on your first post. First reactions are always the most Honest.
I like Sarah, but she’s wearing thin. ANYONE can sit on the sidelines and snipe. If this is all she is going to do, then she needs to focus more on cooking moose stew and leave the politics to those with thicker skin.
Right now, she only appears to be a tease. She won’t run for any office, but she’ll sit on the sidelines and snipe at those actually playing the game. Whether any of us like him or not zero went out, campaigned, got his union thugs and others behind him and won.
Gov. Palin has . . . . . . . . ??
I don't know how you reconcile those feelings with supposedly Loving to watch Sarah in a debate.
You are trying to Play both sides and Failing Badly at it.
