Those that can do, those who can't thrash those that do.
Onyx,
Great pics!
The pictures of Sarah and Todd with the Netanyahu’s was terrific! For just a second I imagined her as POTUS. Then reality bit me in the arse and I remembered Odumbo was POTUS. Doh!

Has she dropped the “reload” part? Is this a “civility” thing?
Praise the Lord.
Is she still getting new lawsuits?

I don’t think so.
They were coming hard and heavy while she was still Governor though.
Have you mentioned that to her? Did she mention being president in that article?
BTW : Did she use the word shutdown in that post? It wasnt in the FR posted part. Straight forward talk is the best.
She needs to be down in DC talking personally with all the Republicans House members telling them exactly what moves to make and reassuring them that her ideas will work. Some of these Republicans with shakey voters need to be reassured why its important they ignore their voters phone calls when the heat goes up high. If she could get Obama to cave and sign a bill ($100B plus riders) she would would win the nomination without contest, if that's what she really wants.
More battles are coming, it's not too late! Tell her.
Sarah has more courage than any of them. The more I pay attention to politics, the more upset I get.
What, by this action, was done with the Federal budget:
.
A family with income of $26,000 a year is spending $38,000. (Add eight zeroes to each of those figures and you have the federal budget.)
.
The so-called man of the house tells his family, We cant go on like this. Our credit cards are near their limit, and soon we wont even be able to pay the interest on them. We need to spend less, so lets cut spending this year by $630 to $37,370
.
After a few days of conflict at home, he cant bear the pressure. He goes back to his family and sheepishly tells them he will be satisfied if they cut spending by only $390, and that he will accept the family spending $37,610.
.
Why should we have any confidence Republican leaders will have the courage to address the remaining $11,600 in my example (multiplied by 100 million in the federal budget) when they cant hold out even a weekend over a lousy $240 that won’t even begin to address the problem?
.
Im thoroughly disgusted with not just them, but my supposedly conservative Congressman that voted them into positions of leadership. Why give majorities to Republicans when the allow Democrats to dictate the agenda and the results on any issue of consequence?
I’m disgusted too. Plus, I just can’t get over the fact that democrats do not care what happens to this country. I know some democrats, and I can’t reason with them either.
She quit.
Something about not wanting to be a lame duck. How can you be a lame duck if you still have 16 months left in your term?
Stating opinion is not hard. We all do all day long. Governing is. That is my point. In that sense, House leadership did an ok job on the 2011 budget deal.
Sitting on sidelines and Opinionating is not the same as negotiating and cutting a deal with adversaries.
What, by this action, was done with the Federal budget:
The Speaker of the House got a repeal vote on Obamacare in the Senate. That is more than any pundit or arm chair general has done. There is a big difference between doers and advocates (or opinion makers).
Sarah has been targeted, attacked, mocked, and ridiculed by democrats and the media in an unprecedented way ever since McCain chose her.
Most politicians would have been broken by it. I don’t blame her for leaving the governorship because the opposition was trying to tie her up in court for years to come.
I admire Sarah and think she would make an excellent conservative president. If that doesn’t happen, she will still be an important voice.
