I hope the day comes quickly, when Palin realizes "THE DEBT HAS BEEN PAID IN FULL. No more ads or support for that slimey little weasle"

when Palin realizes

Recall O'Brien — the torturer, member of the Inner Party who snares victims by the deception that he is from the resistance.

We discover he created the manual for the rebels “The Theory and Practice of Oligarchical Collectivism.” The fictional author, Emmanuel Goldstein, is the object of the daily "two minutes hate" brought to us by statist media and participated in by all around (if they wish to remain unmolested by their peers.)

Does that sound too close for comfort?

Statists expend great effort to create their own opposition. It serves as a means to divide its opponents and thwart effective resistance.

When Winston asks O'Brien if the resistance really exists, O'brien tells him that were he to live to 90, he'd never be permitted to know the answer.

For yorkie's phrase "Palin to realize" to have any meaning, one has had to have answered the question "Is Sarah one of us?" as "Yes."

I, myself, hesitate. "Know a man not by his words but by his deeds."

After all, who was it that

1. brought her to national prominance, and
2. whose staff from the beginning was the source of two minutes hate that we know as PDS?

The answer to both is "reliable" John McCain. And yet she continues to pour support behind that man's agenda. Who is kidding whom?
