I just ran your tagline through Google Translator. It says...
Drink your Ovaltine.
...and you seem just as oblivious that the Palins hosted a reception for the Walker/Mallot Unity ticket in their Wasilla home and stated their support for them in front of approximately 100 people.
If anything in the Walker/Mallot campaign press release wasn't accurate I'm quite sure we would have heard about it by now.
Since Palin opposes all that, I would have to think she would only do so if Parnell was worse behind the scenes...and she knows him behind the scenes.
So if she has, there must be a reason. ‘IF’ she has.
When I tried to correct you by pointing out that she didn't support Romney and didn't really endorse him, since she waited until 24 hours before the vote, you explained why you were deliberately being misleading.
"I had Palin’s sole one time ‘endorsement’ used to beat me over the head with for months by a couple conservative frauds on the Palin threads, so I felt it only fair I return the favor with the shoe on the other foot and all...
I wouldn't want you to mislead people into thinking that Romney had Palin’s support in 2012 since he didn’t, Rand Paul campaigned for him, but Palin refused to endorse him, until 24 hours before the election, when she did a Facebook endorsement.
Ansel, did she or did she not one -single- and only one single, time tell people to vote for Romney. Yes or no.
If she did, she endorsed him. It does not matter that it was 24 hours or 24 months. When you tell your base to vote for someone, that is an endorsement. It sucks, it was a mistake, she lost cred doing it and it only led to people wasting their vote. But it happened and that’s reality. I wish she would not have. I posted at the time it was a mistake and I wasn’t buying into it. But it happened.
I agree. It doesn’t.
Norm, you were trying to pretend something else, rather than a meaningless mention of an endorsement 24 hours before the voting, you were trying to give the impression that Palin had been praised for her Romney support and endorsement. “”They praised her for endorsing Romney, the arch liberal.””
In post 99, you even explained why you were trying to mislead people.
A correction of pointing out that Palin only endorsed 24 hours before election day should have been a simple correction, but instead you just can’t accept it and move on, you have to continue with trying to justify or deny what you were doing.
I have been a Republican for 50 years, spending about half of that time in public office. My service included four years in the Alaska House of Representative and 20 in the Senate, during which I served as House majority leader, Senate majority leader, and Senate president. I concluded my time in public office as Republican National Committeeman. As a legislator, I got to know Bill Walker, both as a strong advocate for an LNG project and as a municipal leader.[...]
Political parties change with leaders, times and interests. We all know that Alaska’s Republican Party has had a tumultuous decade. Now Bill Walker has had to step out of his party and join with an articulate, experienced, dedicated long-term Democratic leader, Byron Mallott, in order to bring some sense of balance to years of disjointed leadership.
[...]
Alaska has spent over $1 billion on mega-project dreams in recent years. Some of the projects are mutually exclusive, most of the money is gone and nothing is done. Short-term constituent pressures produce too many yes votes without tough choices. Real leaders will be transparent with the public about the details and make decisions based on objective economic criteria. Alaska needs decisions -- not another decade of plans and another $1 billion in wasted public funds.
Social issues tend to be defining points for single issue voters, but in my decades of political interaction, legislative and gubernatorial campaign promises have had almost no real impact on long-term outcomes. Neither a pro-life governor nor a pro-choice lieutenant governor will trump the federal government and the U.S. Supreme Court on gender, marriage or pregnancy.
Hiring Steve Schmidt, McLettuce’s POTUS campaign advisor, last month was the end of the road for me and Perry. We have the additional problem that mittens is going throw his weight behind Perry ‘16.
It is imperative for the Chamber of Commerce to kill Sarah and Ted right now, before the next amnesty fight begins, which America is 70% dead-set against.
That’s why Ted’s GOTV in person all over the country, he will enjoy Americans *sending* him to the WH, with a big chunk of Catholic hispanics, led by local conservative hispanic opinion leaders. Like Maggie said, ‘first you win the argument, then you win the vote.’
Cuccinelli didn’t bring in Sarah and Ted for his VA gov race, he brought in Ron Paul instead. He’d be governor today except for that transposed mistake.
Chamber of Commerce is screwed if Ted takes the amnesty fight to We The People before the GOPe can hair-ball up Rick Perry as the ‘16 nominee.
Democrats start talking and doing like this in South Carolina and GOPe RINOs will be gone from here in no time flat.
Again you provide no proof of anything you say. A speech to La Raza only proves he gave a speech to La Raza, what did he actually say? You want what you call a “secure border fence” Perry, you say, is in favor of a “smart fence” which again is not proof or even evidence that he supports amnesty. Then you seem to blame Perry, a state Governor, for the actions of the feds, i.e. the dems in this case, who turn off the smart fence, you say, and thus stops a federal agency, which the governor has no control over, the BP from doing their job; again not proof of any kind that Perry supports amnesty. Then you mention Perry’s support of in state tuition, I guess for the dreamers in his state, and again not proof of support for amnesty. You did a wonderful of job of not answering my question. None of this proves your point that Rick Perry supports amnesty.
So I will ask in a different way; Do you have proof, in the form of any actual quotes that Rick Perry supports amnesty where he actually says, I support amnesty?
Why don’t you read up on Rick before accusing me of no proof. We have discussed his quotes at the laRaza/Mex speeches to death here. Do the legwork.
Ansel, stick with trying to convince Freepers that their grandparents didn’t get married as young as they actually did. Because you aren’t convincing anyone that can read what I wrote.
I know, I know. It’s personal. That’s your problem. If you stuck to facts instead of whatever you call what you do, none of these tender moments we share would waste everyone’s time.
I’m glad you have had it with LaRaza Rick. Romney’s hooks are deep into everyone...God knows how or why. But it’s just another example of how far the GOP has fallen. They have become inbred in their corruption.
I just thank God that every day more people realize the truth of the world around them.
Main deal in this election is getting rid of Mark Begich one last time for good; and I thought photo radar was the last of him in 97, ha. Them filthy politicians have a way of recycling themselves, no matter what they get caught doing. Vic Kohring was even back at it after he did his time in the big house.
I was just naturally going to vote for Parnell, but if Palin says Walker, that's how my family will vote. Ya know, up here, every political is in the oil companies back pocket, even all the dems.
My biggest regret is when Palin resigned from being our Governor; she had much more to accomplish up here and people like her don't come along but every 50 years or so.
I did read what you wrote, it is why I have been quoting it, and posted that you were misleading people, and that the Palin “endorsement” that you claimed that she was winning “praise” for, actually only happened 24 hours before the election day.
And please don’t start getting personal and so hostile over a simple correction about Palin and her 2012 Romney support.
Palin refused to endorse him, and only posted an endorsement on her Facebook account 24 hours before the election day, Palin was not being “praised” for her Romney backing.
See post 129, it is accurate.
The way you know Perry is pro-amnesty is Eric Holder hasn’t sent a hit team after him for attempting to secure the border, like he did AZ Jan Brewer.
Did you notice James O’Keefe walking across the Rio Grande dressed like Bin Laden? Did you know Austin, Houston, Dallas and San Antonio are Sanctuary cities? Do you know Mexico’s president publicly rags on Perry for not ‘doing enough’ for his expatriates, and Perry never responds?
