George Washington was burned in effigy complete with riots.

What year was that?

Which conservative in America is a bigger voice than Governor Palin?

Whining and not being able to name who is a bigger conservative leader than her, is not very convincing.

Actually, Rush Limbaugh, based on pure numbers, eclipses Sarah. :)

“What year was that?”

1795 over the Jay Treaty. Now, remember, this was the Father of the American Revolution viewed by much of the country as a genuine hero - and even His Excellency was hardly immune from vitriol. I know you think history began last week, but just because you experience something now, doesn’t mean it has never happened before or that it has never been as “bad” before.

I’m not convinced she’s a conservative.

So far, I’m only convinced she’s a Republican.

she might be the most prominent, and maybe the most popular But she can’t always be the only one who speaks out. For other leaders to emerge, they, too, must take the leap.

It takes more than words and to lead, for a conservative to overcome all the obstacles put in front of them by the media, it takes a genius in political skills, that is why we never get conservatives advanced through the primaries.

With the possible exception of Reagan, we have never had a conservative positioned this well, this strongly, for winning the Presidential primary, ususally we are supporting some barely known guy that we all know will never emerge the winner, and he never does.

I won’t disagree. But more need to emerge. It can’t, nor should it be, just Sarah.

I asked you the date hoping that you would see the irrelevancy of your post, that was during the second half of PRESIDENT Washington’s second term, and they were EVENTS.

Those riots are events whose date and place we know about, they are not the worst, most sustained, most dishonest, non stop, national media campaign, like we have seen directed against Sarah Palin since August 29, 2008.

We always want more, but we never get it, let's be happy that we have one this last 17 months that lifted the conservative movement from the doldrums and helped stir a national realignment, and has inspired and emboldened Republicans and conservatives around the nation.

I was thinking more of political leaders but your point is valid, although I’m not totally on board with it.

I tend to think of them as a team, Rush is the permanent, conservative, media institution and Palin is the electoral talent.

I thought so. Ah, well, the more you use English, the more fluent you will become.

Boy, did you miss my point.

“Those riots are events whose date and place we know about, they are not the worst, most sustained, most dishonest, non stop, national media campaign, like we have seen directed against Sarah Palin since August 29, 2008.”

Childlike nonsense. History didn’t begin yesterday.

You still didn’t make any sense, if someone riots during President Palin’s second term, then get back to me about the last 20 months.

“You still didn’t make any sense, if someone riots during President Palin’s second term, then get back to me about the last 20 months.”

My point - which should’ve been clear to anyone - was that even genuine heroes have been viscously attacked over politics. To say that Palin’s experience here is so much worse than the past is silly and shows a seriously shortsighted view of things.

My native language is English. But since English is your second language, you are still learning. You'll catch on.

I am well aware that politicians have suffered great attacks, for instance Reagan and George W., I merely pointed out that the media has never been so rabid, so unrelenting, so dishonest, and thorough as they have been towards Governor Palin.

“As the leading conservative in America, and the most relentlessly attacked and smeared politician that we have ever seen in the United States,”

The duration in Palin’s case is 20 months to date, but we have never seen the equal of those 20 months, especially for someone that is only a POTENTIAL candidate for President.

That’s your perception.

Nonsense.
