Palin Wraps McCain in Tea Party Movement
FoxNation.com ^ | 3/27/2010 | N/A

Posted on 03/27/2010 5:51:59 AM PDT by raybbr

Two years ago, John McCain transformed Sarah Palin overnight from an obscure first-term Alaska governor into a national celebrity when he picked her as his vice presidential running mate.
 
Now Palin is repaying the favor, putting her prestige on the line in an effort to help the four-term Arizona senator overcome his toughest re-election challenge ever.
 
The two campaigned together Friday for the first time since they lost the presidential race in 2008.
 
At the first of two rallies this weekend, Palin pumped up Tea Partiers, invoking the cause of the first Tea Party in 1773.
 
"Remember it was the Freedom Fighters and those who protested tyranny and big government," she said. "And that's what we're doing today."
 

"And when you think about that first Tea Party, shoot, some may claim that John was there, at the first Tea Party," she said with a laugh, poking fun at McCain's age. McCain, who is 73, grinned widely beside her.

Yeah I know better. DeMint, Thompson, or Hunter all will be superior candidates. Instead you and you ilk want to be lemmings for the coronation of Princess Sarah.

Now y'all have blood on your hands for enabling McCain 6 more years. JD thanks you.

Has she ever mentioned the thousands of crimes committed by illegals--robberies, rapes, murders, manslaughters? The percentage, about 30% of inmates in state prisons? How wrong it is for states or cities to declare sanctuaries for illegals? The ten billion $$ illegals send back to Mexico each year?

Have you ever heard her mention the drug dealers bringing in tons of poison every year? Has she asked why a fence and better security hasn't come about, and why Pres Bush had border agents imprisoned ?

Until she quits waffling and repeating McCains waffles too, I'm not buying that she is serious about correcting a very dangerous problem threatening to destroy this country.

No I hate Romney, like Sarah, but REALLY despise McCain. McCain has done 50 times more damage than Romney, and must go. The best way to dispose of McCain, is get JD elected. Ms. Palin’s sure didn’t help matters.

Palin did exactly what she had to do, Cuddle up with RINOs and speak conservative speak and you are in like Flint.

Hat tip, if well known RINOs start liking her? You have your answer.

The answer is status quo.

No, the Beltway crowd and John McCain will help Romney. 2012 is far away.

And if the RINOs in question sneer at conservatives, that should indicate a GOP trend away from conservatism. I thought the battle cry was NO MORE RINOS! Not, “A little RINOism is OK, we can change their minds” LOL

Not when they summon JimRob and the mods I won’t ignore it,. Never!

You need to be told the same thing that JimRob told the recently banned BobJ:

To: Bob J....”

You are not only a coward, you are a COWARDS COWARD.

You wait until I post that I will be in church for several hours, then you try to paint me as Bob J.

Jim Robinson knows that I am not Bob J. You not only bully people, you wait until they aren’t around to defend themselves. You are a disgrace to Free Republic.

So you have heard all of Sarah’s speeches in the past few years and all her writings and interviews to know she hasn’t. Bottom line, you don’t know this.

Most on FR have no problem with Obama, the ally to illegals
and Obama with the major push for amnesty with his majorty
of Democrats in congress.

FR has been the safe haven for Obama since many sat at home or voted third party to heop with Obam’s victory.
No wonder many on FR don’t complain about the Marxist Obama.

“Actually it is you and the Palin bashers who are helping Romney.

It will be Palin or Romney.”

That’s an interesting conclusion,since they are both getting advice from the same people...John McCain’s people,like Randy Scheunemann and Fred Malek, who thinks Romney is the # 1 pick for 2012.

What if it’s a Romney/Palin Ticket in 2012? Should be fun to watch.

Your attack was on Palin, not McCain.....Did you or did you not post, on comment #1.....FUSP on one of your latest McCain threads?

I posted "FUSP!" and "FUJM!"

And I stand by my words.

That was vile and vulgar.

Not as vile or vulgar as Ms. Palin's despicable betrayal of Tea Partiers by backing the ultimate CINO, one John Sidney McCain III!

You are a disgrace to Free Republic.

What a moronic thing to say!

I actually saw JimRob out at the rally yesterday. I don't think he'd find the defense of Sarah Palin to be a disgrace.

The hate Sarah threads are what is a disgrace to FR. When the original poster's first comments are "FUSP", it makes it so easy for the BOR types to call this a fringe hate site and they don't even have to search for it.

When there several threads a day being posted by the same person, all saying the same thing, it becomes an agenda.
