so I go to my email box while watching the cat fight between Rod and Cedric and I see....JOE BLOW HAS ADDED YOU AS A FRIEND ON FACEBOOK.

Joe Blow is my great nephew, the one who hangs out with the lesbians. I thought he was mad at me but I guess not.

You can’t make this stuff up.

Did y’all know Karl Rove follows me on Twitter?

[Cedric]

You've posted to me 3 times since petulantly demanding that I not post to you.

Must I remind you that this is a forum for the FREE exchange of ideas and opinions?

[Licensed-To-Carry]

If it would have been me there I would have thrown cold water on them and told them to get a room.

[Cedric]

I think we have, essentially, the same view of this matter.

[paulycy]

we heard ONE explanation for her resignation.

What we tend to forget is that none of this blabbering on either side is going to matter one bit the minute that Sarah steps up to bat on her own terms. Then she will sink or swim on her own terms too.

This is the high-risk part of it (I agree with Kristol here) but I am willing to bet that she can pull it off. She will not be alone from now on. She will have allies and supporters, too.

[Bahbah]

Steve Hayes, usually a smart guy, thinks that Palin would have had a platform to speak about energy as governor, but now that she is not governor, she can’t.

[Cedric]

1. A lot!

2. A ton!

3. See: 1 & 2.

The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men – Psalm 12:8

Sorry troll you don’t get the last word,now back under the bridge.

President GEORGE Bush spoke at a Fourth of July rally in Okla yesterday to a capacity crowd of appreciative Americans. The Obamas were out of the country, avoiding the political necessity of compromising their true feelings about this country. I take exception to your discourteous respelling of his name and the characterization of him as a leftist. I have heard Karl Rove speak and he, like Pres Bush, is a great American. I support Sarah Palin whatever her reasons for resigning but I do not expect everybody else to agree with me on that. Rove’s job is to apprise situations from a political standpoint and of course has his own experience and wisdom to draw on. Sarah does not need alienation and new party fights to entangle her political endeavors going forward. I will continue to watch and listen to them all and put downs of President GEORGE Bush sours my interest in whatever else any poster has to say.

[Cedric]

There’s no doubt it was a tough choice and a close call.

But, the overwhelming issue is the logistical impossibility of running for POTUS as the sitting Governor of Alaska.

[Fishtalk]

Makes me wish you were there.

Truthfully, I felt very all alone. Everyone else was averting their eyes. Well I was too I guess. Like I said, it wasn’t my house.

I did bring it up with other attendees and they all said that they’d seen it so I’m thinking I wasn’t the only one witnessing this thing in a sort of shock.

No one really approved of this display but none of us knew quite how to react for the surprise of it and they count on this with their “shock and awe” campaign, I’m convinced of it.

[csmusaret]

An often overlooked fact: Aproximately 240 million Americans did not vote for the Obamessiah.

The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men – Psalm 12:8

That is great, Gritty. That is why we have the Chris Dodds and Barney Franks of the world shamelessly "strutting" about.

[mtnwmn]

I just turned it on and see he took the first set!

[DanZ]

Hello Cedric, you are correct, many of us will not vote for RINA Big G’ment politicians.

Some of us may indeed chose to vote for the Communists in the DemRat party. As I see it, since the Rinos love large G’ment let us give them the Hell they deserve. And yes we too will be there with them.

There is always the option my father took when we escaped from Communist Eastern Europe in ’66. Move to another Country.

[paulycy]

but now that she is not governor, she can’t.

Correct me if I'm wrong but don't all the anti-palin arguments boil down to "well, stepping down didn't make her president yet so clearly she can't ever be president."

What a load of fallacious malarky.

[ROCKLOBSTER]

I just heard idiot Grasley (on Waste the Nation) state that he wants to make insurance more accessable and fair by implementing "Community rating"

Did I mention that he is an idiot?

[jennyjenny]

If I had witnessed a heterosexual couple with their hands in each others’ pants in a public place, particularly with children present, I very well may have called the cops. I’d do the same with a same sex couple. Equal treatment.

[Cedric]

Why so baleful today, FRiend?
