Kathleen, I’m so sorry that I ever read, trusted or believed your columns. Now repair to the dustbin of history. Go. Now.

Kathleen Parker must want to be invited to the Snow and Collins afternoon tea. She has her head so far up their ass it's the only thing it can be.

I love this part - They also will have been delivered with solemn prayers that Obama will govern as the centrist, pragmatic leader he is capable of being.

Sure, Kathleen. The guy, who doesn't have a Kenyan word in his name, will govern the way you want so as not to piss you off. Did he tell you this himself or are you imagining this too?

I see Kathleen Parker’s lemming-like stampede over the cliff of irrelevancy continues apace....

So where do we go after November 4th if McCain/Palin win?

I think it's telling that 0bama is having a 'gathering' in Grant Park November 4th.  Recreate 68?

And, this Parker woman is who?  Definitely not fly over country material.  Couldn't do what we do everyday, poor dear.

"Palling around with terrorists," as Sarah Palin said of Obama....

This tactic...has been effective with target audiences....

Truth as a tactic...novel these days, but oh, so refreshing...just might work, if there are enough truth lovers, and our merciful God answers our prayers.

Can anyone point to someone who supports Obama for what he actually believes in rather than what they hope he does when he's in office?

When I read K. Parker’s recent crud I am reminded that there are lots of soft-headed frauds of the RINO variety (or whatever she may call herself politically) who simply cannot display any toughness at all - not even by pretending to care about stopping the left and the international jihad.

Parker and Noonan and Brooks would rather engage in puerile mental masturbation than try to focus upon what’s really needed to save this country. To hell with Parker/Noonan/Brooks and their cocktail party whiners.

I thought she had learned her lesson......

There aren’t any Republicans who are going to secretly vote for a pinko...... MAYBE a conservative Democrat, but that’s not who is on the ticket.

I don't know, but I can tell you right after I consult my

Crystal Ball

Runes

Talk to my Spirit Guide

Consult the placement of the stars and planets

Read my tea leaves

Play a quick game of paper, rock and scissors

You know... the same sources they get the poll numbers from!

syndicated nationally by The Washington Post Writers Group

She is married to an attorney

Parker wrote that the Alaska governor had shown “strength, conviction, determination, confidence, a willingness to rumble and fearlessness.”

Parker, who if nothing else has increased her visibility, concludes her column with her call for Palin to “bow out [of the national race] for personal reasons, perhaps because she wants to spend more time with her newborn.”

“Anyone who dares express an opinion that runs counter to the party line will be silenced. That doesn’t sound American to me, but Stalin would approve.”

“(I hear you, Dixie Chicks.)”

“I’m sure it is coincidence that, upon the Palin column’s publication, a conservative organization canceled a speech I was scheduled to deliver in a few days. If I were as paranoid as the conspiracy theorists are, I might wonder whether I was being punished for speaking incorrectly.”

“Our day of reckoning may indeed be upon us. Between war and economic collapse, we have enormous challenges. It will take the best of everyone to solve them. That process begins minimally with a commitment to engage in civil discourse and a cease-fire in the war against unwelcome ideas.”

I think she caught the Peggy Noonan ‘can’t we all just get along’ syndrome.

NO, we can’t get along with people who only want it THEIR WAY OR NO WAY! I guess Kathleen hasn’t noticed that little fact.

If Kathleen or any other so-called Republican votes for Obama they are certainly NO CONSERVATIVE!

Kathleen is just driven by race at heart. Any attack on a black man by a white man - and even worse a white woman - is seen as “ugly” and “racist”. It doesn't matter that was is being pointed out is true about this particular black man, that he's an extreme leftest/socialist that in fact does hang out with known terrorists. And is trying to be elected to be the most powerful man in the world where character matters - a lot.

If Kathleen and Colin were able to be even the slightest bit objective they would have to admit that if Obama skin were white and McCain/Palin continued to say exactly the same thing they've been saying Kathleen and Colin would be saying none of this and would not be supporting him.

A sad little truth about how they think down deep. Simply racist at heart.

Obama’s party may be nothing more than trash and used placards shortly after midnight EST. My guess is it will be a ghost town by midnight, the handwriting on the wall. The drunken stupor at it’s peak, the next morning’s hangover just hours away.

Poor lefties... they’re the only ones buying the polls. They are buoyed up by the propaganda now, but it’s going to be short lived. What a living hell that Wednesday is going to be for them.

I sure wouldn’t want to be working at the local welfare office on that day.

I made it to “hot babe” then stopped. If Rich Lowry doesn’t sack her from NRO soon, I’m canceling my sub. Without NRO, she’ll just go work as the new “token” Republican in the MSM.

Kathleen, you ignorant slut. You *are* being punished for speaking incorrectly. Do you think you have a RIGHT to run counter to an organizations ideas and then still be expected to be welcomed with open arms?

When the government starts stifling your speech because of your ideas, I may start to give a damn. Until then, suck it up and stick your neck out. Because if your wish is granted and Barack Hussein Obama becomes president you'll have plenty of free speech stifling going on by his thugs. Or have you even bothered to look into that as you're so busy bashing Republicans?

Is Obama paying off some conservative (or seudi-conservative) journalists?

From your keyboard to God's ears.

I've seen more McCain/Palin signs in Lake County Illinois than 0Bama/Biden.

And, I know many Chicagoans that are royally pissed off at the tax increases.  BUT, will they overcome their 'inbred' (borrowing a term from the esteemed Rep. Murtha of PA) tendency to vote Democrat?

Sarah Palin is “unsuitable” according to Kathleen Parker.

Well, there you have it. That means all of “us” out in fly-over country are “unsuitable.”

I’ve got some news for Ms. Parker: I would make a better president than Barack Obama.
So would hundreds of Freepers and millions of hard-working Americans with more common sense and an IQ just a couple of points higher than yours.

You abuse the power of the pen, Kathleen Parker. You insult millions of decent Americans so you can hold your head high at a cocktail party.

Your elitism is nothing but a facade for insecurity. Now, go away or I shall taunt you a second time.

Anyone who is the least bit conservative could not support Obama if they are in their right mind. So Kathleen’s either crazy or a liberal. As I’ve said before, we need to remember Kathleen Parker and her crowd after the election and refuse to support her books, columns, appearances etc.

Well, Colin Powell couldn’t. I don’t know what to tell you.

This guy was our Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. Does that scare the hell out of you or what?
