I’m Afraid Sarah Palin Might Be Ruining Herself Unintentionally
RedState ^ | January 11, 2010 | Erick Erickson

...I am afraid Sarah Palin is going to harm herself unintentionally over this tea party convention in Nashville...

Let me be blunt: charging people $500.00 plus the costs of travel and lodging to go to a “National Tea Party Convention” run by a for profit group no one has ever heard of sounds as credible as an email from Nigeria promising me a million bucks if I fork over my bank account number...

And this is how you would have conservatism end: “...not with a bang but a whimper” (or whine: shouting down, denigrating and making personal attacks on all who may share your values, but maybe not all your tactics to achieve them. To suggest that those who may disagree with your tactics and your choice of flag bearer for our common cause are not (your words) “God-loving, Liberty-loving folks” is both frightening and divisive. We are here at this forum because we share many common beliefs and values. Let’s not forget that the Forum was originally the public area in Rome where trials were heard, differing points of view argued. “Pro-God, pro-Life, pro-Liberty, pro-family, pro-America, pro-constitution, pro-gun, pro-limited government” (again, your words) describes me as well as it describes you and Governor Palin. I admire her as you do. I know all of us here want to see a conservative in the White House. Unfortunately politics is not a pretty game. Sometimes in order to win we have to toe that very fine line between what is the ideal and what is reality. We have to do that without sacrificing the win or our core beliefs and values.
I am not embarrassed by this great Republic. And I will not “take a hike”. I will do all in my power—as I did when Ronald Reagan was running—to put a conservative in the White House.

Uhhhh, that is really taking that poster to the wood shed, but 233 is a re posting of a post by JR to the anti-Palin troll Bob J. Read 233 again, the only sentence that I wrote was the very first one at the top. It is JR that you want to send your response to.

In all my days on FR I’ve never seen anyone as big a coward as you.

You posted it (and repost and repost) no matter who wrote it, stand behind it or admit you’re a hit and run vandal who doesn’t have the courage to take responsibility for what they post.

Palin is NO Jesus, she merely reflects ASPECTS of Jesus in a dark, Christless culture. Thus, the light can be blinding and overwhelming. That's why she's so polarizing. It's not her political statements that offend people. It's her personal actions, which are no miracles mind you. Very "simple" things like the mere sight of her cradling baby Trig offend people to no end. Our culture is so deluded and amoral, that Palin makes people feel insecure about their values and the way they lead their own lives.

It’s not even 2011 yet. This is ridiculous. She gets more coverage than Obama. :)

So much can happen. Who knows by 2011, Obama may convert to Christianity and that would be really ...strange and dramatic, but it’s possible. God commands us to pray for our leaders in place as much as the people we'd want "to win."

Bob J the poster was so confused that he was thinking and posting what he thought were direct quotes from me, that had to be cleared up. The post was actually another reprimand of you and your trolling by JR.

Bob J, your lying knows no limits, 233 is the one and only time that I have ever posted that post by JR. You need to apologize for so blatantly lying to these people.

Well, forgive me for getting you and your identical butt buddies mixed up, I’ve seen it a half dozen times.

But that isn’t the question, which is why post it and not stand behind it and instead trying to deflect criticism by tellng people to write JimRob if they object?

What a pathetic coward.

Not only did you lie about me and then refuse to apologise but you are such a pathetic coward that you never responded to JR’s post to you. You slinked away.

If you ever responded to JR’s post to you that I showed in Post 233 on this thread, then link us to it, coward.
