More free press for Palin

PING!!!
Long story short guys, no amount of civilized sucking up to your Ivy League counterparts on the Left will make them like or respect you. You care deeply about this, Palin doesn’t, and that’s why you despise her.
A four page summary of her light-weight enemies, (aren't they all?) complete with videos. Repetitious, so I'm not pinging the list to this, but I might bookmark the article for reference purposes.
It seems evident from this essay that Horowitz believes that Sarah represents every real American. Does he beleive that she can win the Presidency in 2012 - if she wants it?
I wonder what Horowitz would say about the reactions of foriegn world leaders - Cameron, Calderon, Sarkozy, Putin, Merkle, Hu Jintao, Naoto Kan - to Gov. Palin. Would he include “World Leaders” as the fifth group on this list? Do they respect her? Or not know her yet?
Millions of dollars and thousands of hours will be wasted on irrational, hysterical attacks on Sarah Palin.
But, I hate to say it, the right is guilty of this crap also.
Referring to Barack Obama as Kenyan Marxist, his wife as Chewbacca, and calling everybody who disagrees with us a RINO or a liberal in hiding doesn’t give us the moral upper hand.
I am guilty of it too!
But if I don’t want Palin to be unfairly criticized and mocked, I better watch what I do as well.
Just something to think about.
At the end, after listing some wonderful examples of Palin Derangement Syndrome, Reed says this:
Reasonable people can disagree on whether or not Sarah Palin is qualified to be president, or even if her current influence in conservative politics is warranted, but arguably the fact that she is none of the people described above has to count in her favor.
I think that is correct. I am not as sold on Sarah for POTUS as many Freepers, but her enemies just keep making her look better and better.
If she achieves nothing else in her lifetime except having – just by virtue of who she is and what she represents – flushed some of them out of hiding, that alone should secure her a place in history, complete with statue, bank holiday and catchy song.
It's well worth the read.
bttt
Benjamin Netanyahu is a smart man....
For those of us with reservations about this particular line of reasoning – like anyone who understands the Zen-like wisdom of Charlie Brown and the football – such assurances only reconfirm the wisdom of keeping Sarah around....
"compassionate conservatism"
Oh, THAT was juicy! And one hundred percent right on the money. They hate her because they fear her, and they fear her because they hate the fear she causes in them. LOL! A good psychiatrist could have a field day with these people.
