Palin's star burns brightly as Oprah calls
Associated Press ^ | November 22, 2008

Posted on 11/22/2008 6:58:04 PM PST by Free ThinkerNY

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) -- Oprah wants her, and so do Letterman and Leno. Fresh from her political defeat, Sarah Palin is juggling offers to write books, appear in films and sit on dozens of interview couches at a rate that would be astonishing for most Hollywood stars, let alone a first-term governor.

“Tell me then about the problems Alaskans face. With a population of about 700,000, mining, oil, and military bases its chief economy, tell me how that qualifies her to be co-leader of 300 million people.”

Read that slowly moron,, and you’ll see you answered your own moronic question.

When are you going to resign from FR in embarrassed shame; that is the question.

You are sick and disgusting.

And also, get the hell off of Free Republic. You don’t belong here.

I've been here five years longer than you, gomer. Get off because I disagree with the Palin lovers? How fascist of you. How are you any different from the Democrat Underground freaks who ban posters who disagree?

Yes - I realize what happened but your description is so unbelievably dramatic and you exaggerate. There was no blood or gore - there were plenty of stations and local affiliates there that were taping her and at better angles -only the NBC affiliate purposely used the wide screen angle and by the looks of it told the guy to go over there and do that on purpose - I think that entire story was the most ridiculous thing ever reported on. I guess you gave into the media - that’s too bad.

No one's willing to admit it except for a few.....she was nowhere nohow suited or qualified for VP.

Based on WHAT? She is more qualified than Obama. She has the same qualifications as Reagan and Bill Clinton and more than Hillery and Biden.

Where the sun doesn’t shine? That is like a 3 meter area around her. Can you be more specific?

Not without incurring stiff FR penalty.

even Oprah would be better than Letterman .. he’s the last show I’d do .. take that back, I would never do Letterman if I were Gov Palin.

Intersting, tho, that they are still so intersted in her weeks after the election.

Tell me then about the problems Alaskans face.

I told you already.

- It's a remote state
- It has complex environmental and wildlife issues that other states don't have
- It borders two foreign countries

With a population of about 700,000, mining, oil, and military bases its chief economy, tell me how that qualifies her to be co-leader of 300 million people.

That's still more people than the state of Delaware. So how does that qualifies Biden as VP-elect then?

I'm amazed at how so-called conservatives who are supposedly logical and reason-oriented turn into rage-spouting jerks when their sacred cow gets questioned.

Because I'll be damned if I'm going to let a once-in-a-generation potential conservative leader get railroaded by the same liberals and country-club moderate Republicans who did/tried the same thing to Reagan and Goldwater. If that's being emotional so be it, because it's high time conservatives start jerking their knees a little bit too.

You people are no different from the Democrat Underground freaks and you don't even see it.

Please. If Palin wouldn't have gotten picked as McCain's VP, you and the same people would be screaming that she's still not qualified when 2012 rolled around.

Sarah Palin is a huge blessing to the American people and I pray that God gives her the wisdom to deal rightly in All decisions.

As far as the turkey thing, I got a kick out of it. This woman is a hoot. It shows me that she could care less what others will say, that she is gonna do things her way and not be tossed about by others opinions and that is an attribute of a TRUE LEADER. TOO MANY of our leaders have bowed to the pressure and demands of those around them not holding true to their core beliefs. I don’t see that in Sarah. She stands up for what she believes in. This is what I admire most about this woman. May God continue to Bless this woman and her family and snatch her from the hands of those who seek her destruction!

Oh, please, give it a rest with the ‘5 years crap’. And as soon as you use the ‘facist’ accusation, you telegraph who you are. So as I said, get the hell off of Free Republic, go back and smoke dope with your commie friends.

Bush never defended himself in the media and look where that got us.

I was all set to disagree with your other points until that one. Gotta admit that that didn't turn out so well for us. Matter of fact, I believe it's the singular reason Obama succeeded.

Can you imagine Palin taking that crap from the MSM day in and day out for eight years? She would never be cowed that way, and would fight back. Sarah Palin would have handled the MSM a whole lot better, and ensured that she didn't virtually guarantee a Democrat sweep when leaving office.

AL is Alabama, AK is Alaska

I only use such two-letter abbreviations, if at all, when I send mail. They can be confusing, since more than one state starts with "al," "ar," ma," "mi." "te," "ne," etc. I prefer to use the traditional "Calif.," "Ariz.," "Ohio," etc.

Pardon me! but you are just quite a bit over the top! Yes, they burred the Gore out, but advised people NOT to watch!
So, Get over it!Your accusations are groundless, baseless and illogical to say the least! Other than that, evverything is rosy:-P

Based on what the office ought to call for.

She is more qualified than Obama. She has the same qualifications as Reagan and Bill Clinton and more than Hillery and Biden

Yes, she's more qualified than DingDong. I never said she wasn't. Yes, she's more qualified than Shrillary. I never said she wasn't. Clinton, I'm not sure...maybe. She's certainly better ethically and morally. And Reagan? No way. Running California (what is it, the sixth or seventh largest economy in the world?) is so unlike Alaska isn't not even funny.

I said Sarah Palin wasn't qualified for being picked as VP. I didn't slur her ethics, morals, character, ability, intelligence or anything else. I said she wasn't ready, now, for this job.

And what I get, from the so-called logical non-emotion driven conservatives is being called a moron, a troll, an idiot, stupid, and an Obama lover. This is the face of conservatism.

I like your tagline. My husband and I have actually considered moving there. We didn’t realize how blessed the Alaskan people were to have such a great leader. A state with a righteous leader is a state that is blessed. And Alaska is definately blessed.
