Saint Sarah [Newsweek's Full Bore Palin Attack]
Newsweek ^ | June 11, 2010 | Lisa Miller

Posted on 06/11/2010 10:44:41 AM PDT by Steelfish

Saint Sarah To white evangelical women, Sarah Palin is a modern-day prophet, preaching God, flag, and family—while remaking the religious right in her own image.

Another memoirist might prefer to keep such matters private, but Sarah Palin is not another memoirist. In Going Rogue: An American Life, Palin describes, perhaps for the first time in the history of political autobiography, a furtive trip to an out-of-state drugstore to obtain a do-it-yourself pregnancy test. This was in the fall of 2007, when the 43-year-old mother of four was governor of Alaska and began to notice “some peculiar yet familiar physical symptoms, like the smell of cigarettes making me feel more nauseated than usual.” So, while on business in New Orleans—at a time and in a place where her anonymity was still possible—Palin procured the kit. In the privacy of her hotel room, she “followed the instructions on the...box. Slowly a pink image materialized on the stick.

Bill Pugliano Sarah Palin's pro-woman rallying cry is poised to transform the Christian right into a women's movement. View a photo gallery of how her following has become big business. Cult of Palin “Holy geez!”

I'm sorry, but Rabs is such a serial Paulbot, I wouldn't believe anything he says about this. It's in his court to ask the mods for "proof".

Besides, he's supposed to be a stoodent, and I'm not sure he's ever had a job to be threatened with......

Chris Matthews and Pat Buchanan disagree.

In fact what they are seeing is in Pat's words:

"Though the media have painted Palin as a ditz, no politician in memory has conducted a more brilliant pre-presidential campaign," http://www.conservatives4palin.com/2010/06/hardball-chris-matthews-gets-it-right.html

Yep, Rabs says something he can't back up, and I'm at fault.

Typical of your inane logic.

Have a nice evening......but I doubt you will......

See post 280. There are other FReepers who were on that thread.

Yeah, like you and the banker and messup claimed I wished messup would die of a coronary?

Like that?

Y'all are pitiful and need to provide some proof, or I'm not buying, and neither should anyone else with your record of dissembling.

I don’t like him at all. But I don’t think he is worth slicing off Sarah Palin’s scalp over. He is 70 something and really going nowhere. She is 40 something with decades ahead of her. I don’t think she should be knocked around too badly by our own side.

She is up against the Dems and the media.

Well, supporting the Shamesty SOB and his sycophants like airhead FioRINO was her choice. If she wants a future as a conservative, she’d best find a way to disentangle herself from RINOism or she’ll soon be out on her ear. Just another big “R” statism pusher.

The thread in question (now pulled).

The comment in question (taken from FReepmail sent at 01:32:23 pm PDT on 04/13/2010):

"I knew that. I even know his real name and where he works, or is supposed to be working."

If you are going to talk about other FReepers, please ping them.

As for mk, I would strongly believe he did in fact save the comment where you wished such a despicable thing.

Then post it because it said no such thing.

That you claimed it did says a lot about your credibility and judgment.

But that's nothing new for you.

” Yeah, like you and the banker and messup claimed I wished messup would die of a coronary? “

Nuh no Snark. You JOKED about a coronary, you didn’t WISH it.

And as for Rabs, he FReepmailed me the day that stuff was posted. It was about 2 months ago, IIRC. I’ll find it, or he will.

As a meteorology student, I can tell you what we watch for is trends.

Sarah supporting McCain and Fiorina was a disturbing development but it was not a tornado outbreak or a flash flood. Because you have the other strong conservatives she has endorsed. It was upsetting though.

By comparison. Would John McCain have endorsed Nikki Haley in SC or even cared to read up about her ?

Heck no. He is a RINO. she is not.

If Sarah comes out and endorses a bunch of big government Republicans, I am out.

In the big picture right now, I think Sarah is doing ok.

And by the way, if I read what you just posted (and that's the real post), that's stretching it to call that a threat.

Besides you're supposed to be a student, and I have big doubts you've held a job worth anything.

where you wished such a despicable thing.

And this is why you just can't be believed. Go ahead and post that thread, you'll be a laughing stock for claiming I wished a coronary on him.

You just got caught with your proverbial pants on the ground, now you are waffling.

You called Rabs a liar, and he is now rubbing your nose in it.

How is your nose??

LOL!

Uh, SJB...I hate to break it to you, but I'm quoting your fearless leader claiming I wished it.

Y'all are such a trip.

that's stretching it to call that a threat.

There is absolutely ZERO reason to publicly post "I know his real name and where he works" about an opponent in the middle of an Internet discussion unless one's intent is to make an implied offline threat in order to intimidate the opponent into shutting up or conceding.

Y'all are wound so tight, you really need a break.

You claim "proof" on things, and can't provide it, then run around laughing as if it's true.

Now y'all have a great evening being the clown posse, okay?
