She’s playing a game with the American electorate and electoral process in a time of National and global crisis.
I’m done with people who think I’m a polling data point. I want real leaders who are upfront, honest, to the point and serious about facing the difficulties before us.
All I have seen thus far from Mrs. Palin is political grandstanding and populist pablum.
I’m sorry if this doesn’t conform to the FR norm but she’s not behaving like a leader imo.
Stay tuned.
I would love to see a 30 minute pick up basketball game between Sarah and Barry Smoker 0bama.Oh, how I would pay good money to see that.
Did you read this transcript? She stated actual positions on a number of topics here. More than I've heard any "announced" candidate take.
Bump for later reading
all aboard Obamas bullet train to bankruptcy.
This speech was Reagan-esque.
She’s running.
Be patient.
If you don't want to read it, then off the rop of my head she said we had to reform entitlements, i.e. Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security, end the corporaate tax, end corporaate subsidies and bailouts, i.e. crony capitalism, develop domestic energy and repeal Obamacare. I probably forgot some.
Palin doesn’t mention Perry in her speech on crony capitalism. (See speech above.)
She does mention Obama
Oh, yes she did. Not by name ..... but she made a clear reference to teat-sucking Republicans, and Perry is one of the biggest. He sets land speed records for fundraising because all his contributors are big-rich business people whose business he transacts first and last.
He has a select list of about 200 fundraisers who are just incredibly, plutocratically rich. He set a record when he declared for reelection as governor last year, raising an insane amount of money in just 10 days or something.
She was talking about him, for sure. Him and Mittens.
Newt was right. It *is* a great speech!
Thanks neverdem.
