Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said Mondays House vote to lift the debt ceiling was a victory for the tea party, proving that conservative activists had shifted the conversation in Washington.
We shall take this victory and make sure our politicians in office today are learning from this victory, Ms. Palin said Monday night on Fox News, where she is a paid contributor. Its not a 100% pure genuine victory. We just handed the most liberal president, I believe, in U.S. history a $2.4 billion debt increase.

I like to watch the cable series A 1000 ways to die on Spike TV. And I like the series “Coal”. But I have seen how the leftist liberals influence the production of stories on 1000 Ways to Die.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
1000 Ways to Die
1000 Ways to Die is a docufiction television series that premiered on May 14, 2008 on Spike. The program recreates unusual supposed deaths and debunked urban legends[1] and includes interviews with experts who describe the science behind each death. Up until the end of season one, the final story of each episode showed actual footage of dangerous situations that almost ended in death, along with interviews with people involved in the situations. A portion of these deaths have been nominated for or have received a Darwin Award.

Your whole post is an ad hominem attack and you call others "lower middle class/lower class hillbillies". Pitiful.
Why?
Because I’m not going to vote for a Democrat, I’m not going to vote third party, and I’m not going to “stay home.”
She's a sellout who's just in it for the fame and $$.
Why not just vote for the Democrat or stay home?
bump.
Well Sarah Palin says its a victory so all debate is now closed.
Perhaps reading the entire article would give you more information and prevent the now expected knee jerk reactions that are predicted from the Palin haters.............Here ya go, here's what wasn't posted on the thread but is available on the link:
Ms. Palin didnt fully embrace the deal, saying she had plenty of problems with the compromise between the White House and congressional leaders, including Republican House Speaker John Boehner. In the past, the former governor said she was not convinced America would face a default if lawmakers did not raise the debt ceiling by Aug. 2
“Palin Haters”?
I’ve never hated Sarah Palin. It’s her worshipers I can’t stand. The cult of personality that surrounds her was not her doing.
“Sarah then went on to explain why the content isn’t a victory and summarized by saying: Yes this is a victory because tea party patriots did shift the debate...”
“She’s not abrogating her principles and what she said was exactly correct.”
She is wrong and you are wrong to support what she said for it isn’t really true. So what if “discussion” was had???? At the end of the day nothing “substansive” that the Tea Party wanted was accomplished. Goodness, holding back tax increases didn’t even really happen. BTW - I am NOT a Tea Party member - I lean in their direction though.
Bottom line is that YOU just don’t get it about Sarah...she is OK but very falible. She just proved it. Michele Bachman, and I’m not endorsing her, actually did a better job of holding the line....and she actually could vote. I’m not seeing any praise for her, although she seems to deserve some IMO. Once again, Palinistas can’t see any flaw with Sarah, but can only see flaws in other candidates.
This is not rational behavior. Palin deserves to be seriously considered and possibly nominated, but she does not merit unquestioning worship.
BTW Rush doesn’t buy into any “victory” nonsense:
http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/home/daily/site_080211/content/01125108.guest.html
“There was no victory for anyone and failure for all.”
W I N N E R !!
“Focus” doesn’t reduce the debt, pal.
“Rush and others are trying to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Eating our own is a recipe for disaster. “
Yeah...Rush is wrong, and Palin is right. Palin needs to stop taking her marching orders from McCain...her new neighbor in Scottsdale, AZ
Does she live near you? Have you driven by her house? :)
“Buddha get off Molly.”
Wait your turn....
...and shut the dang curtain.
I knew you would get that :^)
No offense, but there are posters here who would love to know my address. She is even closer to me than to John.
I'm not sure why you seem to think changing the terms of the debate is insignificant, since it's the very tactic that got Obama elected, and considering that we have the media to deal with as a hostile entity, controlling the debate is a tool that we very much need.
