Sarah Palin At High Noon

By Lloyd Marcus

I just watched the classic movie "High Noon" (again). Gary Cooper played a brave sheriff who brought law and order to his town. As one woman said, "He made it safe for a decent woman to walk down the street". A recently released outlaw was coming back to town on the noon train to deliver vengeance against the sheriff who put him away. His gang of three arrived early to help their leader take out the sheriff.

Fully aware of why the bad men were in town, the sheriff could not arrest them because they had not broken any laws. Waiting is not illegal.

Desperate, the sheriff interrupted a church service to solicit help. After much debate, the ungrateful town folks declined. They even suggested the sheriff "get out of town" hoping the trouble would follow him. The sheriff contemplated their recommendation. He began saddling his horse, but something inside would not allow him to run away. Heroically, the sheriff faced the bad guys and won!

I thought of another strong, gutsy, bold, stand-on-principles hero, Sarah Palin, in her own modern day version of High Noon. Sheriff Palin rode into America Town on a white horse with conservative guns blazing and saved a dead McCain campaign. She brought hope to weary and battered conservative town folks and gave them a reason to vote.

Outlaw Obama and his posse, the hate filled liberal media/Democrat gang, came to town a gunnin' to politically eliminate Sheriff Palin. They ambushed her at Miss Katie Couric's CBS saloon. Though wounded numerous times, Sheriff Palin survived.

She bravely stood tall and rode high in the saddle while ungrateful, weak kneed Republican town folks ran for cover, hid in their homes and peeked nervously through the curtains.

Why are Obama and his gang so committed and desperate to destroy Palin? Could it be they recognize her destiny, like that of Moses, to set her people free? And why is she so despised by them? Obama's gang hate Palin for all the reasons we love her. Sheriff Palin is a good, decent and strong character driven conservative leader. Palin also believes in God. Such humility and virtues are as repulsive to liberals as showing Dracula the cross.

Something that sticks in the craw of many liberal women is that in their youth, they brought into the feminist rhetoric that women's liberation means no husband and family. Tragically, they find themselves aging and alone. Meanwhile, this conservative woman has it all: great career, fine family and a husband who loves and respects her. Adding insult in injury, Sheriff Palin looks mighty fine in her jeans.

Recently, the libs sent an old washed up gunslinger, the Letterman Kid, to challenge Sheriff Palin to a shoot out. Palin planted two bullets between the pathetic old dude's wrinkly eyes before he could un-holster his gun.

Despite Sheriff Palin's courage and willingness to fight, Obama and his posse rule America Town. They are in the process of taking over everything! Obama took over the livery stable and banned horses. While he and his posse continue riding horses, we town folks are forced to ride miniature ponies.

But in the spirit of what has made America Town great, an uprising is a brewin'. A huge conservative posse is building daily. Our first battle will be in 2010 to win back America Town's House and Senate. Then, in 2012, God willing and the creek don't rise, Sheriff Palin will lead us to victory in the battle of Little Big Washington DC. Years earlier, another great lawman cleaned up America Town, Sheriff Ronald Reagan.

After Sheriff Palin sweeps out the Obama gang, perhaps once again, we will be as what Sheriff Reagan affectionately called us, "a shining city on a hill".

[counterpunch]

Actually, there are many, some whom have PM’d me.
Most are just too afraid of mob mentality to speak up.

Same reason conservatives are usually cowed into silence.

[darkwing104]

Most are just too afraid of mob mentality to speak up.

Oh really

[counterpunch]

Yes. A lot of people in the conservative sphere don’t want to rouse the bullying from the social/religious conservatives.
But you know this. It’s nothing new.

[darkwing104]

[counterpunch]

The PalinChoir were formerly the HuckaBots.
They shout down everyone who doesn’t line up behind their leader now, just as then.
The way they constantly invoke Mitt Romney as an epitaph is a dead giveaway.

[budwiesest]

It is her unscripted moments, when she is on the spot and under pressure, that are of concern.

Well then, I can't help you. Unscripted, Obama works too hard to hide his marxism. Unscripted, Sarah reveals her unpolished devotion to ideals like most any person unprepared for a media language dissection.

You want to know what you're witnessing? A woman who hasn't been attacked by a team of 'journalists' before. A woman who hasn't been ambushed by a team of 'journalists' before. What you are seeing is: you or I under the kleig lights. How would you fair? How would I?

Her distance from Harvard/Yale/Columbia is very attractive. And attract, she will. The crowds that'll show-up to hear her speak (un-eloquently) will astound.

A good heart beats a big brain. Obama is toast in 2012 and they know it.

[budwiesest]

That’s ‘fare’, stupid.

[counterpunch]

Hey, I’m not saying 0bama is the better choice.
Some people act like it’s either Palin or 0bama (or Palive or Romney.)
There goes more of that false dichotomy thing.

[counterpunch]

(Palin or Romney, I mean)

I’m not saying you or I would be better in the situation than Palin.
But I’m also not saying you or I should be the President of the United States of America, Commander-in-Chief of the US military, and Leader of the Free World, either.

I think that’s a pretty big job to fill, and I’m just suggesting that perhaps Sarah Palin isn’t the one person best equipped to fill it.

[darkwing104]

The PalinChoir were formerly the HuckaBots.

Be careful of general statements, calls in the question of crediability. Like calling all Libertarians Paulbots. It just leads to a flame war. The Mods aren't amused by such antics.

The way they constantly invoke Mitt Romney as an epitaph is a dead giveaway.

Not always.

[smoothsailing]

RAISE THE JOLLY ROGER!!!

ARRGH!, MATEY!!!

[smoothsailing]

Thank You for an excellent post!!!

[counterpunch]

You cannot deny there is a heavy crossover.

[smoothsailing]

Funny, I don't recall getting nearly so involved in the candidacy of, say, John Kerry. Did you?

No. I certainly didn't want him to win, and was quite plain about it. But my goodness, I can't imagine being so consumed as he is by any candidate, even Zero.

[budwiesest]

Hey, I’m not saying 0bama is the better choice

Understand. You want to wait 'till the best choice comes around. What I'm telling you is: when it comes to a choice between this Chavezian socialist who's put the 'peddle-to-the-metal' to advance the 'people's' revolution against all that is America during his 'popularity' phase, where few will challenge him, we don't have the luxury of time.

Sarah, with all her warts and blisters stands tall in opposition to the Left's dirty attacks on conservatives. She has become a target and has shown she'll not be taken without a fight. (see Alaska/Grizzly/bloody mess)

I say, let 'em bring on the attacks. Let them show themselves for the coward liberals they are. And Sarah will, by conviction to the truth, smash them every time. They are so wrong, any conservative should have a field day.

I share reservations about her ability to handle the media. With the right people, this shouldn't be a problem. Hell, with the right people, there wouldn't BE a problem. But we know the leftist-bent of Pravda on the Potomac.

In short, I'll support the former Mayor of Wassila 'till she comes out in favor of higher taxes, bigger government, gun control, amnesty, and other non-conservative positions.

[aruanan]

Grasping at typos (and quickly corrected ones at that) is a sign of a desperate argument.

Thinking that I was making an argument rather than poking fun only underscores the matter.

[budwiesest]

But I’m also not saying you or I should be the President of the United States of America,

Why not? A community organizer was elected. I don't know about you, but I come from a line with roots to West Point, the Eigth Air Force, and Bomber Squadren Commander during WWII. That's just my dad.

Freedom is what's at stake and I refuse to sit back and wait 'till someone comes along to take-on these rabid marxists.

They're in high gear and we'd better get behind someone quick, hand them the banner, and prepare to fight like hell to protect what is America. I don't care if she comes with a skirt- I care that she'll do honor to that for which we stand. 2012 isn't that far away.

[tarheelswamprat]

cp - The way they constantly invoke Mitt Romney as an epitaph is a dead giveaway.

The correct word for what you're trying to express is "epithet".

Now for you, counterpunch, a fitting "epitaph" might be "counterpunch - always wrong, but never in doubt".

As a friendly suggestion, it might be helpful for you to take a break from your frenzied online efforts and learn a little more vocabulary. And, while you're at it you'd also benefit greatly if you learned a little more history, logic, manners and humility...

[budwiesest]

‘pedal’, stupid
