PALIN: "We don't want our Republican -- our senators and our representatives to hold hands with the Democrats if the Democrats are going to keep growing government. And why -- why engage in bipartisanship there if the Democrats are doing the wrong thing? We want our Republicans to stand tall, stand strong for smaller, smarter government, for those principles that so many independents and those in the Republican Party have believed in all these years. We want them to stick with those principles."

The Fourteenth Amendment requires the states to protect all innocent persons, and to provide for the equal protection of the laws to all persons. Like McCain and the Pauls, she says it’s up to the states to decide whether or not they want to permit abortion.
That view utterly destroys the foundational principles that underlie the pro-life movement, the Reagan platform, the Constitution, and ultimately, our liberty.
Enjoy.
Such hypocracy! She has the gall to say this when she has betrayed her own principles and she is campaigning whole hog for McCain, a RINO who epitomizes "hand holding with democrats". Man, she must be deceived or BLIND.
Loyalty is not a “beautiful thing” when it involves being loyal to a man who is totally disingenuous and who has shown no loyalty whatsoever to the conservative principles Sarah supposedly espouses. What is taking place is nothing but politics as usual and frankly, the American people are fed up with it.
Actually, according to The Tea Party, This Is No Time For Hand-Holding With RINOS.
Tell that to your friend John McCain, Sarah.
Can anyone here tell be would are better off with Obama than McCain in the White House? Rush Limbaugh was saying much the same thing this week.
For you who do not believe Gov. Palin supports Sen McCain’s position on amnesty:
VAN SUSTEREN: One of the big issues in the campaign was immigration in 2008, and you supported a path to citizenship as part of the immigration. Hispanics were very happy with what you were proposing, but then they went with President Obama. Now the Hispanics are unhappy with President Obama because so far, no immigration reform. What happened to immigration? What are we going to do about it? What do you want to do about it?
MCCAIN: Well, two things I think are important. One is the fact that the environment is so difficult on the border. We just had three American citizens murdered in Juarez. The violence and the struggle against the drug cartels is huge. We need to secure the border. We have to get the border secured.
Second of all, the agreement that we made had a temporary guest worker program, a legal temporary guest worker program. This is not in any proposal that the Democrats want because the unions, obviously, control their agenda. So we got to get the border secured. This is an existential threat to the government of Mexico.
VAN SUSTEREN: So how do you secure the border, Senator, because everyone keeps saying we need to secure the border? Do we build a big wall like they did — like the — you know, they did in East Europe? What do we do?
MCCAIN: Well, we need to have surveillance capabilities. An attempt that they were making just collapsed. The contractor failed miserably. But we need to do a lot more surveillance. And we could use a lot more high-tech. But to have the drug cartels’ violence spill over into the United States of America is a real possibility.
VAN SUSTEREN: Governor Palin, if you were vice president today, what would you be telling a President McCain about what to do about immigration, if anything?
PALIN: I support his position on immigration. It all comes down to securing the border. And he who has actually proposed some solutions, the Obama administration does not want to listen to Senator McCain or any other Republican, and that, of course, leads to a greater problem that we have in Washington, D.C. And it’s that lack of the new administration’s ability and enthusiasm for listening to those on the other side of the aisle who have some good solutions that they want considered.
To those who tell me Gov. Palin does not support amnesty, why does she say I support his position on immigration? We know his position is amnesty. Of course, he is running for re-election so now he ignores it. I am not believing him when he only talks about securing (whatever that means) the border.
You are absolutely right. She is being loyal at our expense.
Imagine if, G-s forbid, she was your family practice doctor and you had just been diagnosed with a fast-acting, life-threatening disease. Would it be a beautiful thing of she referred you to an expert whose skills were weakened, whose judgment and values were skewed, who was arrogant and had a temper, just because he wrote the letter of recommendation that got her into medical school?
Then cease with these fecking games and announce your intention to seek the GOP nomination in 2012.Do it now and any Republican will think twice about challenging you. Do it now and practically all those on the Right and some not-so-Right will fully and unequivocally support you.
I am equally tired of lord McCain pretending he is a conservative every time he needs votes. His record speaks for itself. And NO I cannot say lord McCain would be a 'better' president, given all his friends in Congress. But I did vote for him thinking if IT be the Lord's will, at least Sarah could shoot straight.
Really?" Do you really think that McCain would have insulted our allies, beat up private business and nationalized health insurance?
She needs to tell her buddy McCain that.
Lord McCain did a real bang up job insulting my sensibilities all through the 8 years of the GWBush administration. He is for cap-n-trade, illegal invasion, closing gitmo, voted against the Bush tax cuts, global warming, against Drill -baby- Drill, the list is very long and the record is clear. I don't know what signs are there he would have told his friends in Congress he would veto their junk.
He would not have insulted our allies. The rest of it he would have stepped across the aisle and sold out in a heartbeat.
Whats the difference between Sarah Palin and John McCain...
...Lipstick
Only a fool believes Palin really thinks that she is “against reaching across the aisle”...after pandering for John McCain this weekend....against a conservative candidate
Sarah...dear...you “reached across the aisle” when you decided to support McCain over a conservative
There is no logic in what you just wrote. Thanks for trying though. Let me guess Paul, Romney or any old 1 percenter will do.
I deeply saddens me to see this unmitigated support of McCain, Beck tried to warn her but she just didn't see it. I pray that God opens her eyes, if not, then she has just become another politician, and she is not who we thought she was.
I pray God will raise someone up, I hoped it was her, now I have doubts.
