Don’t lecture me on Sarah Palin.

It’s akin to lecturing the Pope on Catholics.

I will continue to critique her as I see fit whether you or any other freeper likes it or not.

You people are ridiculous just like the Bushbots were.

A Palin hater is a poster that posts that Sarah Palin is the enemy and “FUSP”.

“That is so true. And probably because he cannot raise enough money, Devore is honest and the best candidate.”

He’s not held national office, has he? He was in the State Assembly before this run? I’d like to see him run for Congress, then perhaps he could go Senate or Governor. He seems like a great candidate. [I hate to give up on him, but he needs some motion NOW, otherwise, I think we need to squash Campbell.]

...you can bet Romney’s greasy fingers are on it.

You betcha, and Team Bush is cheering in the background.

Like you, I'm no fan of Steele but Palin knows what's afoot here. You can count on that.

It has to do with terrorists and Muslim affinity. Boxer is the lesser of the three evils in that regard, IMO. Of course, it would be better to have an R in that seat for numbers purposes.

But at this point, our country is in grave danger from those that side with the radical Muslims. As I said, there was no reason for a Muslim lobbying group to be at that SCOTUS announcement.

The enemy is within and our country is getting taken down.

We get what large campaign contributors pay for.
Institutional Statism through default. Progressivism has been phenomenally successful in concentrating power into a few hands.

When you use, or should I say misuse, terms like cult of personality and apply them to a group of conservatives, I am going to call you on it....every time.

Quit reminding everyone how many rallies you have been to and how much you support her. If you weren’t bashing her so often, you wouldn’t have to include that qualifier in every post. I don’t care if you show up for every rally she attends. That gives you no special license to insult her supporters.

This is from a year ago.

And yes, Steele should be fired but it isn’t going to happen.

Yet your comment was:
“I don’t want to hear from all the Palin haters how FR doesn’t allow any criticism of Palin.”

It seems to me inherent in your comment is that those that are annoyed that FR ‘doesn’t allow any criticism of Palin’ are Palin haters. Perhaps that’s a necessary but not sufficient condition of being a ‘Palin hater.’ If you’re going to use such a term, please do clarify it.

...’doesn’t allow any criticism’ I think is overstating it, if people are saying that, but it certainly is true that the early adopters for Palin for POTUS 2012 community here really rally against any kind of criticism of her, even legitimate, thoughtful criticism. We should be open to constructive criticism and shouldn’t hide behind phraseology like ‘Palin haters’ without defining terms. Thanks for doing that in your second post.

"By attacking our strongest conservative, the marxist media ALWAYS identifies who they fear the most."

So true...

“In the long term, Steele should be replaced. But for the short term, he is better than someone whom Mittens or Jeb Bush would install.”

I agree here. It’s likely that Rs will do well in November. That will probably give Steele another 2 to 4 years in office. Mebbe he can redeem himself from his recent rocky patches. He’d do well to stay away from racial politics - is that too much to ask? :)

You must be feeling a bit guilty. Who the hell mentioned you or what a hater is or isn’t?

From allegedly FR is “Palin Country” we’re down to “Nitpick, Bash, Trash, and Tear Down Sarah Palin,” and call her defenders “Sarah Worshippers” -”Cult of Personality” and other such juvenile terms.

Spot on Onyx!
