“The graphic at #32 is offensive. And if having that pointed out ‘bothers’ you, that’s just Tango Sierra.”

You have a bad day at work today? You are getting really worked up over something that was meant as an attempt at humor and it wasn’t even directed at you.

LOL, have at it, it seems that you have moved from terror of the picture, to embracing it, that is good, I’m sure that you will have much more to say about it in your rambling posts.

Not once on this thread have I seen you intelligently express your basic disagreements with her.

My disagreements are mainly with Palin's rabid followers, who insist on putting her on a pedestal. They truly believe that someone who quit after half a term as governor of the 4th least populous state is qualified to be POTUS.

It’s amazing how many PDSers believe Palin’s endorsement was the key to McCain winning. McCain had a huge campaign fund. I sent JD $50 but, let’s face the facts: he was a marginal candidate who had a history of earmarks. Once the “free money” informercial became public, he was “dead man walking.”

Had JD lost by less than 5% I would agree the Palin endorsement was a factor, but he got killed.

What's your candidate done?

I don't have a candidate. And in looking at the current field, I might not have one at all. I might end up holding my nose and voting for the GOP nominee.

She has always been eminently suitable for POTUS. And she has proven it betond doubt since her resignation. We can't help it if you are slow at accepting reality.

As I wrote in my previous post to you that you ignored, what has your candidate done to compare to Palin?

If any poster had used that graphic, directing it at Sarah Palin, with a note "you're next", I guarantee that some Palinista would have been screaming murder most foul and perhaps even contacted the authorities over such a threat.

Good grief...

Give it a rest, would'ya? No one reading this thread believes that Onyx meant for that image to convey a threat of real harm to anyone, including YOU.

You don't believe that Sarah Palin can step into Reagan's boots and move the ball downfield, but that's simply your opinion. The vast majority of center-right voters in this country see the same basic qualities in Sarah Palin as they saw in Ronaldus Magnus, and they are spot on.

Sarah can't possibly have the exact same life experiences that Reagan did in 1978, but she's got enough similarity of track with him, and shares an almost identical strain of character traits, that the differences are inconsequential.

What's most important, is that she's cut from the same type of timber that he was, as were those who set this country on its course to greatness. The people see this, and that is why she will be our 45th President.

You and your small rabble of anti-Palinistas can rail all you want against her coming elevation to the presidency, but it will happen, whether you want it to, or not. It's simply where our near-term history is headed.

Well that seems very principled. That seems really energized. Perhaps you just are not following politics?

You know? Obama? Liberal takeover? Tea Party? Change the GOP?

Sounds like you are on the wrong site. Certainly seems like you want to infuse everyone else with your boredom too.

Too bad. We like Palin. We are principled. We are energized.

And you don't care much about anything?

Revving up your posse, eh? Only cowards do that.

You don’t need a posse, if you speak the truth.

Its a bit early yet. Possibly Joe Arpaio.

I think he would be more useful as the head of the DOJ in the Palin Administration. Someone has to arrest all the criminal elements that permeate that group.

I don't need to rev them up. They're already doing just fine on this thread. I'm just joking with them.

I’ve just become disillusioned in politicians in general over the years. That’s all.

Evening, you have said that before over the months, that is the very definition of a troll, someone that is not involved in the threads, but merely wants to annoy the posters and hijack them.

Oh no! I see that Rabadash has sent out one of his favorite attack dogs: Messup. Hey Messup, why don’t you take a long walk off of a short pier? Oh no! Going by your kooky interpretations, I just issued a death threat, huh?

OK, so was Sarah lying about McCain being a "real conservative", or did she really believe that he was?

Why don't you honestly study everything else Sarah Palin has said and done, then put your question into that informed perspective?

That's the only way you'll come to some understanding of it. You might also want to come to grips with some basic realities of politics, while you're at it.

I don't know what to tell you, except that it takes an adult's sense of judgment and a child's sense of point blank reality to see what you're trying to see. Most of our folks have the faculties to do this. I'll bet you can too, if you work at it.

I think Bolton would make a much better Secretary of State. Of course he would have to fire everyone and start from scratch.

Under that defeiniton, I’m no more a troll than you are. And I certainly haven’t hijacked any threads. You folks always have your say.
