The anti conservative Bob J's near opus

Sen. John McCain, the man who brought Sarah Palin to national prominence, is being challenged for re-election in the GOP primary by former U.S. Rep. J.D. Hayworth. Palin recently announced that she plans to travel to Arizona to campaign on McCain’s behalf, but posters on her Facebook page are not at all happy with their Sarah:
“Sarah, it was fun, but now you are done.”
“Sarah, your support of McCain shows bad judgment and brings into question the validity of your words. You can forget any political ambition if you support Amnesty – which John McCain does. Conservatives don’t forget.”
“You do know Senator McCain is a PROGRESSIVE? It is very disappointing that you are campaigning for him instead of J.D. Hayworth. McCain needs to go!”
“Sorry to hear that you are supporting McCain. Up to now, I thought you were part of the solution, but you’ve shown yourself to be part of the problem.”
“McCain!? Are you kidding me? Time to pick a side, Sarah– Are you with the people, or against them?”
“I agree with those who advise you not to campaign for Senator McCain. He really doesn’t represent the views of grassroot conservatives. He represents those in the GOP who have too often been willing to compromise on principle, or even worse, have failed to really understand basic conservative principles.”
“McCain used Palin like a cheap tool to keep from getting beat worse than Reagan did to Mondale. His staff mocked her and showed no respect. Now McCain is using her again like a cheap tool and this time she is willingly doing it under the guise of loyalty. As long as McCain is the face of the GOP, conservatives are irrelevant. Palin is playing politics and this goes against what she “supposedly” represents. She helps elect McCain, she’s done.”
“I respect your loyalty to McCain, Sarah, but he really is using you. You need to do what you are obligated to do for him, and then run as far away from him as possible. He’s widely despised in the Conservative movement, and you’ll be hurting yourself badly with your support base if you do more than offer your token support or speak on his behalf.”
“McCain is not a commonsense candidate. If you support him your future as a conservative candidate is over.”
“Another day ~ another appeal to our girl from Wasilla: PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE do not follow through with your plan to campaign for John McCain. In the insightful words of Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman: “Big mistake. Big. Huge.” To do so will destroy your credibility, have your enemies carping: “I told you so,” and leave your fans devastated.”
That’s just a small sampling of some 2,500 comments, and I have to admit to being surprised by the vehemence and near-unanimity of that sentiment. It makes me think that McCain might eventually have real trouble in the Arizona primary.
I wish the Palin supporters would answer some of the unanswered puzzles about her... like ones asked by even people friendly to her (e.g., Colonel Grimes). For example, did she knowingly put her minor child into a dangerous position or did she lie about feeling she was in a dangerous position? Of course, her testimony of danger wasn’t backed by the other two witnesses.
I just hope she answers them now, before they become October surprises.
These are getting better!

She quit. You can't change that.
Again: ”But now I’m sure I am closer to the possibility of supporting her without having moved any closer to her than many of her so called fans...”
That means I am closer now only because others have moved away.
“She quit. You can’t change that.”
You’re a dumbass and you can’t change that either lol. She’s out there fighting the fight. She may even run for President.
But seriously, which liberal do you support Keith?
Character.
That is the best way to communicate to them.
Either that or run for office and get almost 1 %.
My personal favorite is the Looney Tunes. Descriptive.
If she quit to take on a more important task then what she did was a good thing.
Yep, crazy how some instantly judged her yet none of us have a clue what she will do or say. They might be right about her, but I'll wait until she actually does something one way or another beyond showing she has good manners.
She also has good political sense. McCain has a lot of political baggage, but he also has a lot of friends and political capital. By showing some class and good character with an offer to help, she might have made a few friends, didn't make any real enemies (she hasn't done anything yet) and at what cost? Alienating a few people who probably wouldn't like her no matter what she did? Imagine what people would say if she told him no.
Your dream is dying before your eyes!

He’s an uber radical Paulist, just ignore this one.
Endorsing old TARP McCain. That big government RINO stuff went out with Bush/Paulson.
I'd be saying "That ain't Jesus"... and I would be right.
Not only that but the leftists are laughing their butts off at the stupid conservatives eating their own.
