Sarah Palin: Nonstop D.C. Nonsense: Drilling Down on Energy Doublespeak
FaceBook ^ | March 15, 2010 | Sarah Palin

Posted on 03/15/2010 2:47:58 PM PDT by Clyde5445

It may be tempting to feel worn down as we take one step after another towards the “fundamental transformation of America” that Barack Obama promised. But we mustn’t let our energy be sapped, even in the face of the mind-boggling leap the Obama Administration just took that fundamentally shifts us towards more reliance on foreign energy sources. Hang on to your hat and take a look at this.

Months ago I discussed Washington’s decision to allow U.S. dollars to flow to Brazil for that nation’s off-shore oil drilling projects, while D.C.’s attitude towards America’s own offshore developments appeared less-than-enthusiastic. We gained hope though when our President promised in his State of the Union address that he’d be “making tough decisions about opening new offshore areas for oil and gas development.” Most of us optimistically assumed that “making tough decisions” meant allowing at least some offshore drilling. In fact, on national television that night I said that the President deserved kudos for acknowledging our need for domestic energy development in his speech.

The Obamaloon probably believes in 1,000 mpg carburetors (and probably thinks we still use them).

He is the most uneducated simpleton to inhabit the Simpletonhouse in decades...ney, centuries.

Why are you excerpting Facebook postings? I’m pretty sure Sarah is throwing these out into the public domain.

Because the why I understand it it’s SOP to do so.

Note to Sarah: (minor edit)

America, we must resolve to stay engaged in what our politicians are doing. Don’t get tired and give up. All political power is inherent in the people. America can only be transformed into something unrecognizable if we get so tired that we give up our political power and close our eyes to what is going on. Find the energy to stand for what you know is right, including supporting leaders who don’t engage in energy policy doublespeak.

Fixed it! :-)

SOP for NYT, WaComPost, LAslimes et al. But Facebook?

Has Sarah threatened JimRob with legal action for posting her political prose here?

Yet another issue where the so-called "airhead" is giant seven-league strides ahead of cardboard conservatives such as Mittens, Pawlenty, etcetera in both perspicacity and ordinary, garden variety political courage.

Same as it ever was, in other words. ;)

No wonder Washington has no sense ( NON SENSE ) it's because they don't fear the Lord anymore... the fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom.

FWIW, from a search for articles previously posted with the word "nonstop" in the article title:
Granted that this is an important subject...
...if I have a REALLY important comment to post about this subject, that EVERYONE concerned should see...
...WHERE should I post it -- on ALL FOUR threads?

I see that ANOTHER “FR-archivist” shares my “duplicate thread” observation. ;)

It’s O.K. to post her entire FB entry. She’s not going to complain about it one bit. ;)

You said it, Brother FReeper. It's so perplexing that so many downplay Palin, call her a lightweight, and think she can't connect with regular Americans. The more I hear and read from Palin, the more I think she's got more potential to do this nation and the Republican party good than any other politician on the scene. I hope she runs in 2012.
