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!”

Absolutely right. IF McStain manages to prevail in the upcoming August primary, conservatives should take a page from the ‘Rat playbook usually reserved for GOP primaries, and vote for McCain’s opponent in November. The choice will be between a new ‘Rat (whoever is the ‘Rat candidate) and McCain, who is nothing more than a ‘Rat slinking around with an ‘R’ after his name, when in fact he is a ‘Rat by any other name.

McCain has to go. The sonuvabitch is a dagger pointed at the jugular vein of conservatives, and it is now a matter of survival.

Jim, if at any time in the past 14 years or so, you ever had any doubts about creating Free Republic, or the amount of work it took to keep it going, this post at #517 should put it to rest.

It won’t make the front page of the Washington Times, and it won’t cost a Dan Rather media type his job, but it is a living testament to the quality of many of the posters who spend time here.

It will take you a while to read, but it will be worth it, I assure you. I saved it to print out, and keep for posterity.

*** Don’t miss a piece of Freeper history! ... Post 517. ***

(Gotta make this short, have to get to work pdq)

Very well documented, that's for sure.

However, the misstatements and smears of JD could have been shot down a tad easier (this is NOT a criticism) by just going to the ACU's (American Conservative Union) website and looking at JD's votes for 2006 - or any year - as I just did.

For the 25 House Bills(1) that the ACU lists as 'important' in 2006, JD voted the 'correct way' on 24 of the 25 Bills(2).

Accordingly, for 2006 JD's ACU Rating was a 96.
And in 2005 JD's ACU Rating was a perfect 100!
And just for reference, over JD's 12 years in the House, JD's Lifetime ACU Rating is a whopping 97.56!

McInsane's votes are also shown under the senate search and in 2006 he got a 'RINO approved' 65. And, when looking at McLame's votes its easy to see when he was up for reelection or running for POTUS. In those years his numbers go up to the 80's (gotta fool the knuckle draggers). Then afterwards he goes down to the 60's again. And the only thing that keeps McNuts Lifetime Rating 'high' is due to his longevity in the senate.

Okay, have to run now. But a very good job of documentation 'DoughtyOne'.
And I'd save that post to notepad, or word, for future posting.
And put it on a Flash Drive for 'safe keeping' :-)

See ya later FReepers.

1) This Link describes every Bill in detail and if the ACU was for or against it.
2) This link has a Table which lists which way the person voted. A 'good vote' with a 'plus', or a 'bad vote' with a 'minus'

You tossed out a number of charges, and that’s all. You didn’t provide links, votes, bill numbers, resolution numbers, amendment numbers..., you just threw the mud and hoped some of it stuck.”

It’s the McCain way, and the ONLY way he ever got elected!

“They don’t conspire with communists, marxists, and fascists to take our nation down. And then there is John McCain, a man that will do all of this.

Clinton was a vile man. Obama is a vile man. John McCain is a vile man.

J. D. is a good man, and you are an ass.

Pack up your lies, your disinformation, your baseless slanders, your fronting for the worst of the worst, and get lost.”

AMEN!

Well done. The RINO trolls here are as pathetic as the marxists.

Thank you for suggesting a great tool for people to use and providing a link.

In this instance, it seemed to me to be a great opportunity to focus on exactly what this poster was up to. It gives folks insight into what other posters are doing right now too.

So of course you are right about the ACU rating listing. It is an important tool for folks to keep handy and use during campaigns when all sorts of charges are flying around.

Take care...
