It’s a classic movie plot. Think “Woman of the Year,” with Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn. At first the man and the woman hate each other, then they fall into each other’s arms? Well, feature the fight that has erupted between the president of the AFL-CIO, Richard Trumka, and Governor Palin of Alaska.
The leader of Big Labor went to Anchorage to give a speech and attacked Mrs. Palin, accusing her of doing everything from writing notes on her hands to coming out with conspiracy theories about President Obama and his “death panels” to getting close to calling for violence. “Sometimes — about Sarah Palin — you’ve just got to laugh,” Mr. Trumka said. “ . . . But it’s not really funny.”
Mrs. Palin turned around and gave as good as she got, or better, in one of her patented Facebook postings, a demarche headlined “Union Brothers and Sisters, Join Our Commonsense Cause!” She wrote as a one-time card-carrying sister of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers and United Steelworkers, cards she held by virtue of her husband’s membership in the two unions.
She asserted that it was “kind of ironic that a union boss has the gall to accuse anyone of threatening violence,” particularly in light of what she called the “violent attempts” by the Service Employees “to intimidate those who wanted to make their voices heard in last year’s town halls.”
She argued the real jobs problem was being caused by the policies of President Obama. Suddenly the Internet came alive like the silver screen, so much so that a columnist of the Washington Post, E.J. Dionne, issued a long complaint.
Seems that Mr. Trumka can’t get anyone to listen to, let alone write about, his usual speeches about what Mr. Dionne characterizes as “social CONTINUE

I’m calm as a clam at high tide. And yes, Bachmann deserves due consideration.
Would you like me to show those posts of yours?
Pissy is living in an alternate fantasy universe...or he’s Joe Biden. But I repeat myself.
Congratulations! You’ve managed to disrupt and hijack this thread.
My peer who is Muslim told me months ago that he thought Sarah was hot so I’ve been sending him pic’s...Today he told me he doesn’t like her anymore because she’s an extremist and doesn’t like Muslims....then mentioned Ground Zero and I told him I don’t want it built either, he questioned why and I told him I didn’t want to discuss further and would not send him any more pic’s of Sarah...he asked me if I was mad at him and I told him no and to just forget about it....
Go see my Hunter thread from yesterday.
It's all there. I'm not interested in the search, but undoubtedly you could find them.
It's what makes you such fun..........
You conveniently forget that I said I’d vote for a Thatcherite woman for Prez. That’s OK.
Carry on.
Wow. There is that dividing line! That GZM is everything to them. It’s a victory mosque for sure. Rush’s sub=host called it the “murder mosque” today. LOL. They’re table- clothed heads would explode if we started calling it that.
How perfect.
;)
I did not post on your Hunter thread, so are you saying that you disrupted my thread as payback for the disruption you suffered on your thread?
Just wow.
I do not and DID not consider Bachmann as a disruption. You guys acted like I nominated Murkowski. Can’t say I’d pitch a fit if someone posted a pic of DeMint or Tancredo on a “Hunter is the grooviest” thread. In fact, I didn’t pitch a fit about the palinistas on the thread at all. I just respond in kind.
I'm also sure that SHE would agree that Sarah Palin has done far more to advance the conservative call than she has this past year.
In the past year Sarah has:
1. Written a best selling book about her battles.
2. Gone on one of the most attended and well received book tours ever, galvanizing conservative America.
3. Been one of the few conservatives that has been in the face of the Obamacrats weekly, once again galvanizing conservatives.
4. She is one of several conservatives that are constantly attacked by the Obamacrats BY NAME, showing how much they are concerned about what she says.
5. Has been the driving force behind various conservative candidates, many of which have won office, all of which gained in the polls due to her influence.
6. Has the will to be standing in the face of the MSM when lesser people would lay down and cry uncle er...auntie....
7. Will continue to stump nationally to elect candidates that will make a difference, and will help galvanize both the TEA parties and GOP into trying to seep the Obamacrats out of office.
Other than that, she's not done much.....
The list is longer, I invite you to add to it.
:-)
Carry on.
Yes, “murder mosque” - lame stream and all the journ0lists and punditry on both sides would go PC nutz, but that’s precisely what it is!
Sarah Palin came the closest when she called it the 9/11 mosque, but then the GZM caught on.
Not true. That was Schlafly’s opinion, not mine. I’d take a Maggie in a heartbeat.
Hope “murder mosque” catches on. Most accurate term EVER.
It is incredible what a national force Palin has become in 3 short years. I love the way she gets under the socialist’s skin and how they hate her for it.
