You want a media darling politician with substance? Try the late Gov. Ann Richards...

Had to stop reading there; barfed a little in my mouth. Excuse me, gotta go....

basic beliefs that should be easy to regurgitate.

That’s all they are to liberals, just spew, the
half digested remnants of a long ago constitutional
dinner.

Ann Richards, excuse me but wasn’t she the one born with
a silver manure fork in her mouth?

Sarah Palin will be in the history books long after Roland S. Martin is forgotten even by his family. This is another example of the left telling us how insignificant she is by obsessing over her. Too funny...

In the words of Dennis Miller, “the reason I love Sarah Palin so much is because she annoys the hell out of liberals.”

LOL. I had to stop reading when he suggested how deep and smart Ann Richards was compared to Sarah Palin.

I'm sure the Palin haters and 1%ers will love this article.

I assumed he threw out his hip dancing with Donna Brazile on election night.

Who knew?

Ann Richards, the old whiskeyvoiced drunk who gave George Bush his start by her acting like an idiot when he ran against her and kicked her 'substantive' a$$. Woman had her 15 minutes in 1988 when her writers gave her a good shot to deliver at GHW Bush during a covention speech.

But those affirmative action 'rat stepnfetchits like Martin they just loved Miz Ann.

But unlike Palin, [Richards] had a host of strong ideas in her head that actually made sense and appealed to a cross-section of folks.

I just went to Wikipedia to look for some evidence of that. Results, inconclusive.

I have a question for you.

Why is it 95% of the articles you post are critical or down right negative towards Sarah Palin.

It’s just an observation I have noticed. Has anybody else noticed this.

Empty? Sarah Palin? Buahahahahahaha!

We know Sarah Palins College roomates, and her friends , we know her evolution into o[politics, we can see her academic records, we know her parents and they hide nothing.

Obama on he other hand is a cipher. We do not know where he was born, he wont release his oroginal loong form borth certifiocate from Hawaii and has spent 2 million dollars keeping litigants from seeing it. His Occidental College records are sealed. His right side cranium shows trauma scars of surgery or repair and we know nothing of his health records to explain that.

All we have is a clap trap book Obama is said to have written ( doubtful), full of factual inconsistancies, half truths, and altered, photo shopped pictures.

We know who the empty politician is and it IS NOT PALIN!

Guess Who?

First of all, see my tagline.

Second, most long-term FReepers and Lurkers know where I’m coming from.

Third, if I only posted articles praising Governor Palin, I might do four a year. The jourbalists HATE her, and that’s my point. They hated President Reagan, they hated President Bush 43 (even though he wasn’t really conservative) and they’re REALLY going to hate President Palin. Might as well get used to it, Clyde.

I read Pitts’ Op Ed or Open Letter to Sarah Palin today. It is hilarious to read or listen to the so-called ‘progressives’ rant against her. If she is so insignificant, why all the personal vitriol against her. I attach a link to his rant.

Several things here:

(1) Palin lives real-life traditional American values. There is nothing phony or staged about her, which is why the base loves her. So for the author to say she's "cashing in checks" is pure hyperbole.

(2) Obviously, the author never listens to Rush or understands his satirical sense of humor, because Rush never called anyone retarded, per se.

Very poorly written and thought out article here.
