A great interview with Governor Sarah Palin on a Tuesday afternoon.
Sounding very much like George Washington, the rather reluctant leader, Governor Palin ends the interview with a bold statement about leading the party.
Ronald Reagan was a democrat for most of his adult life. He famously said that he didn’t leave the democrat party, the democrat party left him.
Governor Palin is saying what the rest of us are thinking. We’d MUCH rather revitalize the Republican Party than go in another direction, but …. and what else can be said but …. we haven’t left the GOP, the GOP has left all of us!
This is a long interview. Governor Palin talks about how the Republican Party has failed. She talks about starting a third party vs revitalizing the GOP. She also tells Sean that we must get new blood in the government, and save America.
Governor Palin also gives a VERY interesting answer to the question if she WOULD consider running for the United States Senate out of Alaska. This is the kind of answer a true leader, who cares about her nation, would give. Vintage Sarah Palin too!
All of this, and much, much more:
(VIDEO-AT-LINK)
Sarah is the leader we need.
But not the one we deserve.
BUMP!
Are you still ignorant of the reasons for her resignation? Apparently, you are.
As disappointed as many of us were that she didn’t run in 2012, I think she made the right decision. Everything was stacked against a GOP win for the presidency. I have to respect her prayerful decision and watch what she does next. Another loss for her would have been the total end of her career.
Yup.
Caught myself spelling it this way, and realized I prefer it.
It takes real skill. Had an editor once (a fabulous headline writer) who titled my pan review of "The Last Tempttion of Christ" with this header:
Savior Money
Another story about what a rip-off the Schick-Shadel $14,000, two-week clinics for cocaine and alcohol addiction were, he titled:
Full of Schick
He was a genius! {^)
The scary/disheartening thing for me is that, as much of an eff-up the current resident has been,I still bet that the deck is stacked against us in the electoral college. The Dims’ criminals have rigged enough states’ votes and fooled enough dumb - err.., “low information” - voters to the point where the GOP candidate has to walk such a fine line to 269 that it’s looking downright gloomy. The nominee would have to essentially pick one heck of a lock.
And then, even if the GOP candidate were to pull-off such a stunt, what kind of nauseating gem of a nominee would be nominated by the GOPe?
If Palin bolts, she’s going to take a big chunk of us with her. And as far as I’m concerned, the loss resulting from splitting the vote wouldn’t be very great, and at the very least they’d learn a painful, eye-catching lesson about blowing-off their source of passion, their base.
America was doing just fine until over-reaching government in the form of environmental regulation, environmental restrictions, labor and wage laws, unionism, anti-discrimination laws that require ridiculous, expensive jumping through hoops, shackling tax laws, and who knows what else from the thousands of government agencies that exert gentle and iron tyranny "for our own good," made it a losing proposition to manufacture in the USA.
Just saying that American needs to get back manufacturing is standard operating procedure. Big deal. Freedom-loving Americans calling out government tyranny as the cause is a whole 'nother talk show.
Yes, and that they are allowed to vote, is an aberration of justice and flat out wrong. I want a political party that will make that part of its platform. I'd love a political party that sought an America where the average good citizen who wants to vote has to take a little iniative and go to a little trouble to register, and to get to the polls on election day. Get rid of Moter Voter and registering voters en masse outside the grocery store, and no damned ballots in any language but English. ELECTION OUTCOMES WOULD BE PROFOUNDLY DIFFERENT and America would be much more prosperous.
Amen, Brother FReeper. Everything to gain, nothing to lose.
No man is going to fix this mess. It’s gone too far. Little fixes can be applied but it’s no use. Only God can fix it and He will do so in His good time.
I agree with your solutions but it won’t happen. It’s time to get in survival mode and close to God. IMO
......but that would only delay the inevitable.
I support her whatever her decision is when it comes to running for office.
And if she runs she has my full support because she isn’t business as usual phony politics ala GOP E.
you’re an ass
They probably wouldnt have cost Alaska that much. The people attacking her were going after her personally. They were leveraging a law preventing her from using state funds for legal fees. She was having to pay the lawyers herself.
She represents what is BEST in America.
LLS
We have not had one like her on the national scene in politics since Truman.
AMEN, and I would only add REQUIRE A G**D*** PHOTO ID!!(Yes I'm shouting)
Personal legal bills: $600,000
Annual Gov salary: $100,000
Do the math...
