I have seen a lot threads in here on our friend and heroine, Sarah Palin. While most in here are good, there have been some posts or comments in these posts that have led me to speak out. For all of you so-called conservatives who have nothing to do than bash Sarah Palin, I have only one word to say to you. ENOUGH! I have had it with finding fault with everything she does.
I'll admit, she needs more work, but to sit here and bash her like a member of the Democratic Party or liberal media is reprehensible. To say she is damaged goods because of her being McCain's running mate is reprehensible. She has brought more excitement and energy than any one I can remember except Reagan. She is young, vibrant, conservative, charismatic, and honest. She is beautiful as well, but that's besides the point. Even though we lost, I think bringing Sarah Palin on the national scene was probably one of the few things McCain did right in this campaign. Sarah was the one who brought out crowds to rallies as big as Obama did. That's saying something. The Dems, the media, and yes, even some Republicans, know that she's probably the one person who can unseat Obama in 2012. They know it, which is why they are continually attacking her even though the election is long gone.
I am a strong Sarah supporter, but I will not follow her blindly. If she does something that I don't agree with, I will say it. But she seems to know what she's doing, and I am just a regular person, which she is as well other than governor. I hope she runs for re-election in 2010 and wins, and if God is willing, she decides to run for the Presidency in 2012, I will enthusiastically support her. First, if she is re-elected, she just needs to work for the people of Alaska, which I'll know she'll do. After that, she should run in '12 if she decides to do so. She will have a strong base of support. All of the other candidates who ran in 08 should just step aside and let some new blood run. I do hope to volunteer for her campaign if she decides to run. That has been my dream, to work on a campaign. Hopefully it will be hers.
Again, for those so-called conservatives who bash her, either admit you just don't like Sarah, or get on board. It's not like, "It's her turn." It's our turn, and she can be our leader. She's not perfect, but who is? All I can say is, she will be the right person at the right time. Keep her and her great family in prayer as she makes the tough decisions down the road. God bless her and her family.
How’d the GOP do in that last election?
I think Palin is married, and we don’t vote for people’s family.
I think you are no doubt a anti-conservative troll of some sort. Maybe a confused democrat fascist trying to stir things up amoung conservatives concidering the bile you type.
“She wasn’t on any ticket that I’m aware of when Romney the two-faced ultra left-wing republican won.”
He won because she supported him. Romney never campaigned in Alaska. Palin is a Mitten. Get used to it.
Tell me what the Romney health care plan in Mass. is supposed to do. What are its benefits?
*****************
Not well. I wonder if McCain had anything to do with that?
How do we know the bashers are not democrats? A whole lot of the posts I’ve seen have recent sign up dates... and a lot of the others are Romney supporters...
It’s not SoCalPol who made these remarks. He/she forgot to put quotation marks around the quote. The remarks were made by nmh, who made those remarks in another thread. I saw it myself.
pissant is working to elect Duncan Hunter in 2012 so take his posts about any other candidate with a grain of salt. My take on this is all the candidates need to earn their nomination in 2012 and no one should be taking sides until the debates start, the real shame is that the same crap as 2000 and 2004 and 2008 is already starting all over again here.
“Tell me what the Romney health care plan..”
It’s not his health plan. And his vetoes were all overridden:
I know it’s early and it’s only 2 months into Obama’s Presidency, but I really felt the need to vent after all of this beating she’s taken, esp. from those who claim to be conservatives.
I understand but by the same token it’s not necessary to post every little thing she does or some minor quote from some other person about her as if it is a major event in the big scheme of things. After all it will become necessary to win support from say McCain boosters, Romney fans, Huck’s group, etc. But to slam them continuosly isn’t very smart imo.
It wasn’t the Hunterites demanding no criticism or a coronation of Hunter. We’re happy to argue the records and statements. Alas, the coronation crowd won’t be.
I am out of here. Keep the thread going.
How many people — even here on FR — know Sarah never said “I can see Russia from my home” that was actually a SNL commedy skit line that the media ran with. Also how many know she didn’t attend a function in the lower 48 because she was with Billy Graham handing out food and supplies to poor Native Alaskan’s in the frozen north of Alaska... how many have examined her budget for 2009? or looked at the frivilous lawsuits being filed against her by democrats.
*I think you are no doubt a anti-conservative troll of some sort*
put down the bong.
That was a post as I said from a basher
He’s pulling your leg, he admitted on another thread last week who he is already working for...
I am working to elect Hunter? There’s no telling if he’ll even run again. What you meant to say is that I want him to run and if he does, I’ll support him over all comers. No doubt about it.
What’s the picture of him laughing it up with Ted Kennedy and other Dems? Thanks.
