Fair enough...can’t argue with your post one bit.

• Palin Recommends that President Obama "Show a Little Bit more Passion in the War on Terror" -- Video

Thanks bigred08.

FReepers actually believe??? Prove it Mike.

Are they mocking Sarah Palin or some hack actress on NBC?

He's mocking the hack actress, but he, like most people are probably too clueless to know that. ;-)

Better thin-skinned than RINO-skinned.
Conservatives aren't the ones who go into kiniptions when the dems look at them the wrong way. We were "the party of longsuffering".
Time for us to get a little sensitive and start howling when we get dissed.
I'm tired of giving these ba$t@rds a pass. No more!

Bob Vander Plaats has a distinct odour as the perenial candidate aka loser....

[IYellAtMyTV]

"Iowa GOP gubernatorial candidate and Mike Huckabee ally Bob Vander Plaats"

[tailgunner]

Ditto. This is a political compaign, not a DC comedic roast. This dummy has just alienated a goodly portion of his base. Too bad there is no State Conservative Party to run a candidate against this unmentionable.

That’s not mocking Palin.

When I explained that a US island is only 3 miles from a Russian island in the Bering Strait, any you can in fact see Russia from Alaska, she got the deer-in-the-headlights look and insisted I was making it up. I won 20 bucks.

Hey, we can't all be geniuses like Mika B, who in attempting to scoff at Gov. Palin, let loose that she thinks Lincoln was a Founding Father.

You are right, in a way. The Rinos in the GOP had best get some brains and skin or they will be skinned. I would not vote for this idiot because his statment shows he is out of touch with real change we need to make. No wonder he supports Huck, the Rino who set loose murderers and rapists on innocent people because...it felt good. No brain involved. No skin in the game.

there is an upside..van der asshat has outed himself. what a jerk.
it is absolutely disgusting to see R’s violating RReagan’s 11th commandment
fortunately SP looks like she will not take the bait.
SP will focus on issues, policy, and problem-solving her detractors try to kick up dust about frivolities

[bigred08]

How is is NOT mocking? When Tina Fey did it, was she not mocking Palin? I believe she was. So was Vander Plaats. The fact that he was Huckabee’s Iowa chair in 2008 says it all.
