Discussion is great but often that is not what is happening.

One thing I've noticed is that the reason discussion is not what happens is because the Palin people preemptively define any disagreement as "trolling." Ergo, by posting anything but "I'd crawl through broken glass and drink my own rancid urine for SARAH!!!!" type comments on a Palin thread, you are, by definition, trolling.

The event is hosting.. ...’250 global leaders from 40 countries’....and Palin will be a key note speaker.

That’s significant for Palin to be seen and heard by government dignitaries...and that by invitation. She is walking the walk once again and THEY are interested in what she has to say.

I gave you the definition of trolling. With a link. Tell me how a poster saying things like “dumb as a box of hammers she is.” does anything but incite? And, yes. That is a quote from a poster that is trolling a current thread. You call that “discussion”?! It’s flame and zot bait.

Did you ever notice how when Palin wades into crowds or speaks to large audiences that people absolutely love her?

I think that's pushing it a bit....Palins a politician with substance when she speaks....they "love" how she makes them "feel" about our country and what it needs to stand for once again. Some will get all rapped up in the "feely" stuff, which is ok...but most want to hear where she stands and most are quite aware by now....

I don't love Palin but I do love her manuvers thru the political field...she represents what most Americans want to see in our politicians ...steadfastness in the face of opposition, courage to speak truth and fight for it, and a love of country and it's people. Not to mention an ability and skill to outwit any who oppose her or try to trip her up. Her executive experience goes far and will be more than welcomed in Washington.....except by those who will be in her line of fire.

And I’ve seen Palin people call for FReepers in good standing to be *banned* for merely saying that they don’t like SARAH!’s position on illegal immigration, accompanied by the usual wild-eyed screaming about “trolls.”

You can link to your little definition of trolling all you want. Doesn’t change the fact that a lot of Palinstinians on here are complete jerks towards anyone with even the slightest non-SARAH! leanings.

ADULTS don't post inciting statements simply in order to poke a lion. That goes for Perry and Palin supporters. Children incite. Adults don't. Your choice.

I think you're mistaking someone fully committed to seeing Sarah Palin all the way thru to the Presidency....and willing to do all posssible to get her there. That is devotion with a purpose....certainly not trolling....especially since FR is often called "Palin Territory"....you should expect passion and excitement for her.

The truth is that you are doing what the MSM is doing, trying to smear Palin because she is a political force. Sorry but insults don't work and facts are not on your side.

Go troll a Perry thread.

No. The truth is that, as I wrote, she has to make a living and this is how she does it. It doesn’t matter one bit if you don’t like it.

No. You were baiting posters. As you always do.

How adult is it to troll the opposition? It isn't.

You alienate the very people that you want to vote for Perry. With every post, you generate more ill will for your choice. How's that for genius?

Behaving like a thinking adult is funny? Only to someone who can't grasp the concept.

Have a nice day.

Yup, they sure do love her, even unnanounced in Boston amongst a throng of people. Charmed their socks off she did.
