I’m right with you up until your pitch for a third party.
Let’s face it Sarah Palin/Marco Rubio is the ultimate but he does not seem to want to run.
Thanks PB, that is a good one.
Pray for the Tea Party Congress
It illustrates a saying I heard the other day: Never put passion before principle; otherwise, even when you win, you lose.
What a phoney-baloney he turned out to be. "We report, you decide," my ass! He's going to report things that support his conclusion she's a loser. He'll ignore things that confirm that she connects with Americans regardless of race, class, or sex, on a level that hits home.
One of the things I like best about Palin is there's nothing of the "mommy" or "grown-up" or "daddy" about her, despite the stupid "Mama Grizzly" references. I hate it when the left or the right (most often seen among Romney supporters, incidentally) throws around terms like "Let the grown-ups take charge!" It's condescending, presumptuous, and counter-productive. We none of us are children. I like that Palin comes across as a person equal to all of us. I believe she comes across that way because she is humble enough to realize that it's true.
The saddest part is that there are a lot of decent patriot Republicans and conservatives who aren't info-geeks and yakkers like we are, who trust FOX to keep them informed. If all the info they have is from FOX, guess what their opinion is of Palin? It's "Well, I like her, but ... "
FOX is in the henhouse.
To answer ME. To satisfy ME. To answer to all the Americans who are interested -- and they are.
You go ahead and let the MSM (aka, liberals) set the terms for exposure and then react to them. We'll stand back and watch you be manipulated, while Palin helps lead moral, limited government Americans to the Republican party and into a place where they set the terms for the MSM and liberals.
I absolutely agree with you: I hate the “grown up” stuff too. It comes from the overly-educated elite in this country who either have kids in top colleges or who never got over their own elite college experiences. So they use college metaphors no matter how old they are. Juvenile expressions like the Mom party and the Dad party, smartest person in the room, Obama’s I.Q. is off the charts, kitchen table and water cooler discussions (stupid Beltway people don’t even realize water coolers have long been replaced in offices by small kitchens!) Expressions no one outside Washington or New York ever use. Chris Matthews really embodies this stupid style of speaking.
Sarah is incredibly eloquent in her use of everyday language. I thought her “blood libel” speech was brilliant. But neither Hume, Sour Kraut, Liasson, or Juan Williams will ever see that. Sometimes, I wonder if they are all blinded by her beauty.
I wonder ... what kind of jazz?
I say Amen!
You just know she will offer a response to the SOTU—and it will be more impactful than the official GOP response.
That's a possibility. I think, though, that what's bliding them doesn't come from Palin, but from themselves! ;^ )
The main problem with discourse is the hairpin curve on the edge of a thousand foot cliff.
I hope so, that would be wonderful. Certainly, the Republicans have not been able to respond effectively to what the Democrats continue to do.
If not Palin I pray the GOP will tap a Tea Party person to respond.
Which explains Michelle 0bama, Nancy Pelosi, Helen Thomas, Hillary Clinton and a host of others.
ROFLOL
Hey, I'll give ya Chuck Hagel, but come on, it's a traditionally red state.
What are you talking about? I have witnessed first hand the changes in our public school system due to Christie. Our local school is enrolling in a School Choice program. Competition will be the only way public schools will improve and Christie knows it and is doing something about it. I have also been at local town meetings and the main topic is consolidating services. Cut spending and save the taxpayers money. Now maybe your not plugged into local NJ politics but I am and Christie rocks.
...The left is always welcome to spew the "Truth" to power with no consequences, of course, AND will be repeated over and over and over by the stenographers in the state run propaganda machine.
The entire headline should read:
NAACP votes TEA Party is racist organization, Maine TEApublican governor tells them to: Kiss my butt!
Hard to tell, strictly an excerpt from a neighbor about the mass murderer.
