A thread troller talking smack. What a surprise.

No one forced you to watch it.

Maybe you don't know the circumstances under which I saw the film. I have every right to have my opinion of the film.

I don't like brainwashing.

Passive intake without the ability to give feedback or ask questions is not campaigning.

Kinda like a campaign commercial on the TV box, a radio ad, or an ad in the local rag. No one, and I mean no one, is better at retail politics than Sarah Palin. Educate yourself on her abilities and you will not find yourself wanting.

You troll Palin threads and consistently post flammable statements. You also post disinformation.

There's a big difference between discussion and smearing.

Then why is she using a self-serving film to advance her campaign? Why not reach out with those retail skills? I'm not saying that she doesn't have them - I have always been highly impressed with her ability to connect to people - so I'm both curious and concerned when she starts preferring old-school mass-media methods such as "indoctrination" movies (I chose the word for its rhetorical punch, not because I think it's actually descriptive) over directly interacting with people on the retail level.

I do not post disinformation. You can't take it that someone THINKS while watching a piece of propaganda. The thing about this film is that it could have been a very effective film if they had left out the propaganda.

There were parts of the film that were very effective but they blew it when they spent the last 5-10 minutes blasting Republicans. How can they do that and then expect to go to those people and ask for votes?

FWIW, I believe Palin is a better person than this film. She should have insisted they clean it up.

Yes you do. And I have seen you given info, WITH LINKS, to correct the disinformation. You simply go to another thread and post the same thing over again.

As to the film, you seem to think all Republicans are honest. They are NOT. And this is NOT a Republican forum. We expose politicians on this forum. We do not cover for them.

1. She's not promoting the film - the film maker is.
B. Who cares. It's a totally outside the box approach. So cool and new that even The Won's people want to make a film for him.

Why not reach out with those retail skills?

Have you not seen her in public setting? Jeez Louise, the woman works the crown better than Billy Jeff at a funeral. You said yourself she's impressive.

so I'm both curious and concerned when she starts preferring old-school mass-media methods such as "indoctrination" movies

Again, it's not her movie, she had nothing to do with it.

If she does not announce this weekend, they will be able to hear my screams from Maryland all the way out to Iowa.

C’mon, Sarah, do it!

Uhmm, I think you must have been posting to someone else, ‘cause what you posted bears no resemblance to a response to what I had posted.

I have made a vow that I will no longer beat on Perry unless provoked. I know how much I hate it when people slam Palin.

Have you seen the film? If so, can you tell me why they only talked about corrupt Republicans in the film? Are there corrupt Democrats?

Why did they feel it necessary to insert those scenes in the film that really had nothing to do with the film?

Why did they spend the last 5-10 minutes blasting Republicans? Why did they show photos of Cantor, McConnell and Boehner and infer they are corrupt, too?

What was the point?

I have never, ever inferred there is no such thing as a corrupt Republican. I only wonder why the film concentrated on corruption among Republicans while giving Democrats a free pass.

IMO, this film is not necessarily a positive for Palin as it can offend some viewers. I was offended at the end of the film.

If they have evidence Boehner, McConnel and Cantor are corrupt, they need to make some specific allegations and get it out in the open.

“You the guy that promised not to run for President if he was elected Governor again? That guy?”

I think this flip-flop pissed Gov. Palin off to no end. Perry lied to her and Sarah doesn’t take kindle to lying.

If you would stop pinging me I would be finished in this thread. If the thread doesn’t want non Palin supporters then stay on topic and keep it about Palin only. No snide remarks should be made about other candidates or their wives in a Palin only thread. Is this too hard to understand for you? No need to answer me, I’m ready to move on.

Now, goodbye!

Because corrupt Republicans controlled Alaska and she ousted them. Democrats had NOTHING to do with it.

Why did they show photos of Cantor, McConnell and Boehner and infer they are corrupt, too?

Because they are Dem lite. Look at the debt deal.

Your post is all smoke and mirrors. You know EXACTLY what the truth is. And, as I said, I have seen you post disinformation, be corrected, and repost the disinformation on another thread.

I didn't "ping" you. I responded to your post to ME.

If the thread doesn’t want non Palin supporters then stay on topic and keep it about Palin only.

Just as soon as Perry supporters lay off Palin on Perry threads. I learned from you and others that two wrongs DO make a right.

What truth and what disinformation? I do not lie, unlike Palin’s film where they allege that Boehner, McConnell and Cantor are corrupt. Those are serious allegations.

You posted to me first. I responded and back and forth it's gone and all I'm saying is:

Stop posting to me and I won't post in this thread any longer. Do you have a reading comprehension problem?

Just as soon as Perry supporters lay off Palin on Perry threads. I learned from you and others that two wrongs DO make a right.

So basically you are saying that nothing negative can be said about Palin on any thread.
