VAN SUSTEREN: Well, you know, I think -- it will be interesting to see what happens. The Tea Party, I think, had an enormous victory, because they did change the discussion here in Washington. It's a little bit like trying to change the direction of an aircraft carrier. It's not easy. So they certainly, I mean, that's huge. And I'm sort of curious whether the American people will now sort of take a bow, those who are Tea Party activists, and go back to their lives, which are very busy and very full, and they're worried about their own lives, or whether this is now going to -- now they'll take this victory and move on. I don't know.
PALIN: Well, I think that we shall take this victory and make sure that our politicians in office today are learning from this victory, realizing that it's not 100 percent pure, genuine victory because realize, Greta, we just handed the most liberal president, I believe, in U.S. history a $2.4 trillion debt increase. We're allowing him to increase the budget even more, and without guaranteed cuts, and without guaranteed reforms. And we have to make sure that we realize that, yes, this is a victory, because Tea Party patriots did shift the debate. However, there's so much more work to do in order to get the economy back on the right track and to restore the exceptionalism that is America.

A great victory? No? But it's a turning point. The debate has been re-framed, and the Tea Party has the initiative and momentum. The economy will continue to suck, and Obama will continue to take the blame for it. 2012 looms, both for him and for the GOP squishies. Goliath won't go down that easily, but David's just warming up.
So our Vice President and other communist members of congress think people who believe in the brilliance of the founders are terrorist I guess the cold war of words has ended and we are now in a hot war with our government.
If a government official can declare us terrorists then I guess we are fair game for warrant less searches, phone taps, no knock warrants, and long stays in Gitmo (which the muslime in chief did not close).
If we are terrorists then should we be prepared to fight back?
Can we expect the head lesbian of DHS to send her bull dyke gestapo for us?
Will the affirmative action head of the DOJ go after us because we are not his people?
Seems we have a new civil war on our hands. The only question remaining is which side will you join, the out of control government or the “terrorists” who love the idea brought forth by the founders?
Thank GOD Thomas Jefferson gave us the tools for this type of government.
Very much looking forward to Palin’s appearance with Hannity tonight.
Greta is a moron, and Sarah is playing spin doctor.
What victory?
We surrendered the chance to stop the nosedive into oblivion.

Anticlimax.
Palin blew it on Greta’s show. She could have mustered some courage and said that we were handed an excrement sandwich, but instead wasted the moment by trying to spin the influence of the TEA party caucus.
Hannity is irrelevant and embarrassing.
Sarah used the word “victory” because that word was used in the question she was asked. It’s nothing more than answering the question asked. It’s clear she meant victory in the sense that the debate is now about budget rather than something else. Sometimes I think there are paid Palin vultures lying in way for the chance to spring into action and demoralize her followers. They get into the thread pretty quick so if anything they are working in teams to do this. One posts then the other pounces.
Reread what Sarah actually said — carefully.

thanks.
You’re Welcome.
No, Hannity doesn’t even know where he is on this.
Yesterday he said that he supported CCB, which is just another leadership dead-ender.
At no time did he declare support for not increasing the debt limit at all.
Anyway, what I said WRT Hannity was that he is irrelevant.
He is.
