Neo-con defilers plot to corrupt innocent and unsuspecting Mrs. Palin

Sarah, just be yourself. America loves you.
Not the dreaded neocon stuff again. Give it a rest TAC.
Ok, I get the part about Sarah being herself, but what in the hell is the rest of this article about? Sarah is who she is, she will continue to be Sarah, the spin masters can go f*** themselves and Sarah will still believe and do what she believes in. Go Sarah. I just wish the ticket was Palin/McCain and not McCain/Palin. I wonder if jelousy is why McCain keeps sending her into the MSM garbage disposal? Could be,better men than John have caved in to power.
These people sound amazingly bitter. Almost like Democrats.
I agree. The smart alecs trying to put this woman down will eat crow soon enough.
Sarah was unable to attend the Schlafly event because she was meeting various world leaders coming to the UN
Does this pathetic group of crazies suggest that Sarah is not pro life enough for them.
They make me sick, every last one of them.
No different than the jewish groups who demanded Sarah be disinvited to the pro Israel anti Iran rally at the UN.
McCain is trying to lose.
The part about Islamic terrorists being victims says all we need to know about this Schmoe.
Conservatives inveighed against communism for decades. We have had some success, but there are still pockets of resistance that threaten to bubble up and reinvigorate that horrid beast, e.g. Green Party.
By my reckoning we are only now coming to realize the true horridness of neoconservatism. We will need years more of commentary to fully flesh out the exact reasons why neoconservatism came to be, how it thrived, and how it decayed into the horrid beast which it is today.
Then decades more to rout it out of the political and cultural landscape.
Neoconservatism is a form of idol worship of abstractions masking itself as pragmatic idealism. It needs to go the way of communism and the dinosaurs.
I have to post this again as I do not want to do a Vanity:
But a question to you guys out there, when I phone bank I will always run into at least one man who has become unhinged over Sarah. And I am talking about Republicans. They buy into MSM “Sarah is unprepared” nonsense. I offer the talking points about her executive experience, taking on corruption, so forth and so on...but these “nuts” will not crack. I tend to go around it and focus on the “McCain the hero” vs Obama and the Ayers, Rezco, Wright connections.
What makes these guys tick? Are they just Sexist, stupid, or what? and how do I get through? I can read folks well enough to know they are no Obots posing as repubs. Heck my Dad thought Sarah was a horrible choice at first. But he was at least reasonable when an explanation was offered. Any suggestions on how to help bring these men back to the fold?
That magazine has the same anti war, anti Israel crap that Obama suports.
I was being facetious. Neocon is a fictional term, defined as whatever the person making the pejorative comment thinks it means.
However vague the notion of neoconservatism is, there is some "there" there. There are some well-defined positions from some well-known people who have called themselves neoconservative.
I was a big fan of the domestic policies of neoconservatives such as Charles Murray and Ben Wattenberg, but I am even now souring on those.
We can throw away the title "neocon" and still identify the bad ideas that have helped to wreak havoc in the world of late. In any case, however tainted the term "neocon" is, it is still a useful word to label those ideas we must rally against.
Who in the hell is running this McCain campaign? Sarah Palin is loved for who she already is. Did McCain’s people not see that his campaign was completely energized the day after Obama’s speech because McCain named Palin? This campaign has been handled in the most inept way for the past several weeks, starting with allowing Palin to be interviewed by Charlie Gibson with out demanding final approval of the slicing and dicing of her answers. I am appalled at how this campaign is being run and how Palin is being handled. Why do they need to rearrange her? Palin was hope for conservatives for the future. It wasn’t just about winning this race, which they would have done; it was about the beginning of the rebirth of conservatism and a return to Constitutional principles starting with their administration.
TAC’s authors like Buchanan seem to think it has a helluva lot to do with supporting Israel over the islamic hordes. Funny thing is, just about every democrat and republican of any stripe supports Israel over the islamic hordes. Including me. And I’m a helluva lot more conservative than Pat and his buddies.
I remember when Katie Couric was called perky and sunny. She looked like a bitter old hag when she was zeroing in on Sarah. Why on earth she was sent to her and Gibson right off the bat is beyond me. I agree let Sarah be Sarah! That is a winner.
Neoconservatism brought us the expansion (rather than elimination) of the Dept. of Education and the NEA under Reagan. Neoconservatism is soft on illegal immigration. Neoconservatism is in favor of a free market over the short run (i.e. encourage businesses to do pretty much anything they can get away with) in exchange for socialism in the long run (i.e. government bailouts when the Masters of the Universe screw the Universe up.)
And the list goes on ...
Thank you for the reply. I think that is exactly what I am running up against, folks that have something fundamentally wrong with the thinking process.
I will still do my level headed best to bring them back. But some of the Latin males are the hardest to convince. They worked for Martinez and Bush but Palin just sticks in their craw.
