Nothing new, except interesting for being posted on HuffPo and by an Obama supporter.

>> Dinan: “I would love to see more thoughtful reflections on positions and values, a deeper understanding of history, and less of the combative edge, all of which would make her a more unifying leader”

Yeah, because the toad that you chose to vote for possesses such qualities - NOT.

Can anyone give me one example of something Obama has done that’s a positive reflection on America’s vibrant history?

He has to get this in, of course:..she launches...into a diatribe about what our country needs, which is strongly colored with right-wing platitudes and a self-righteous air as well as the tendency to portray liberals as the enemy rather than fellow allies in evolving our country...

uh, liberals are the enemy.

Fellow allies? Kum-by-ya moment for a defeated libtard?

Here’s the original link, from the Huffington Post no less!

I’ve seen quite a few posts similar to this on what are usually loony left sites. I really believe that, as many average traditional type democrats start realizing that 0bama really is just media hype and about as substantive as a puff of smoke, they may be willing to give Sarah Palin a thoughtful look. Actually, over the last few months I’ve run across several really interesting columns at the HuffPo, naturally, the comments left excoriate the writer, and spout the usual hate-filled garbage that is commonly associated with the far left.

But, there is hope, as more and more cracks start appearing in the left. By 2012, there will be thousands of such cracks, and the left will crumble like a loaf of stale bread.

Two comments;

1) Stephen Dinan is a reporter for the Washington Times. Stephen H. Dinan is a hard core lefty. (Yes, two different people) That, in of itself, is strange.

You really should read the comments on the original site.

I can better respect both her sincere patriotic intent as well as her willingness to take on hard fights in the service of democracy, in addition to her championing of the everyday people who often feel marginalized in our political process.<<<

Typical Liberal!...lol....Cant quite pull the trigger!

as he goes on to state....”I still would not vote for her for President,” (even if she was running against Stalin himself, no doubt!)

The liberal mind is truly beyond my comprehension.......

Good read....

The question begs are some Lib's and loons stepping away from the Bong long enough to become Scoop Jackson, Zel Miller, or even Pat Caddell Democrats?

I can only hope, they have been unreachable and you can't negotiate or battle in the arena of ideas with these loons. Maybe this is a move towards sannity.

Just couldn’t help but compare himself to Sarah. Bah!!!

And that paragraph about Sarah’s ideals being partisan!

What a crock.

In the end he just couldn’t be honest, he had to revert back to his own fear of this wonderful woman being so much more than he or his party could ever hope to be.

"I would love to see more thoughtful reflections on positions and values, a deeper understanding of history,..."

Whoa!

Though I use every opportunity imaginable to encourage people to study history to discover the truth about a subject, this statement floored me, coming from a Leftist.

More people studying history would only expose how Authoritarianism has destroyed societies, and serve to drive Socialists out of politics permanently, which would be a beautiful thing for us Liberty advocates and the world, in general.

While it is encouraging to see this posted on HuffPo, I always sleep with one eye open around these lefties.

Palin/Cheney '12!

elected officials on the left never try to come together....they are enemies of the country, and you can’t read Obowow’s book because he hasn’t written one.

All that said, I still bristled when she launches in the final part of the book into a diatribe about what our country needs, which is strongly colored with right-wing platitudes and a self-righteous air as well as the tendency to portray liberals as the enemy rather than fellow allies in evolving our country.

I would have liked to see the writer expand or explain the basis of his assertion in connection with "platitudes" and "self-righteous" air. My guess and prejudice is that I would strongly disagree with the writer; I suspect that there would be little substance in his explanation, but, instead, the usual disordered thinking characteristic of Democrats and other leftists.

The truth is that each party tends to champion one side of America's core values

I'm sorry, but what "CORE VALUE" of America does the left champion? And when has any leftist/progressive/socialist program ever worked in the long run?
