PDS manifests itself in irrational personal assaults or baseless attacks the Left and RINOs engage in whenever Sarah Palins name is brought up. I totally agree with all the personal attacks the media and the Left used. They did the same thing to Dan Quayle and we did the same thing to Jimmy Carter's brother, Billy.
But what about when any FReepers dare to post a single discouraging word about Sarah Palin?
As others on the thread have posted, it has become almost impossible to rationally discuss Sarah Palin's qualifications on Free Republic because anybody that posts anything that does not feed into the endless chanting of adoration is labeled as a RINO and is accused of having Palin Derangement Syndrome.
Discussing the use of the Gender Card is a legitimate conservative issue. Yet, the P.D.S. Card was automatically thrown out.
That does not work for the Far Left when everybody that disagrees with them is labeled a "Fascist" and it will definitely not work with the 72% of ALL American voters that currently believe that Sarah Palin would NOT be a good President.
FOX News Poll (February 7-9, 2011)
Question 3: I am going to read you a list of names. Tell me if you think that person would make a good President or not.
Sarah Palin:
.................YES.........NO.......DK.....Never heard of
ALL...........23%.......72%.........4%.......1%
Dem ...........7%........87%........5%.......1%
Rep ...........40%.......56%.......3%.......1%
Ind ...........25%........69%.......3%.......1%
The following is not "baseless". It was reported by the very people who were trying to get Sarah Palin elected Vice President of the United States:
"Palin couldn't explain why North Korea and South Korea were separate nations. ..... Asked to identify the enemy that her son would be fighting in Iraq, she drew a blank. Later, on the plane, Palin said to her team: 'I wish I'd paid more attention to this stuff'."
"Oh, that! Well that came from John McCain's people and John McCain is a RINO so that is baseless and that is the end of that!"
When true conservatives quarrel about issues or people it is never personal but purely business.
I support Sarah Palin—yes she flubs sometimes and,like Reagan (who was a passionate FDR New Deal Democrat), has flirted with the Left in the past.
True conservatives have an invulnerable faith in the original system,and the main ingredients in it,set up by the Founders and they look for the leader most likely to advance or rescue that system and right now,true conservatives support Sarah Palin more than anyone else.
Oh,a “true” conservative is one who embraces to his innermost soul the values and virtues of not only Judeo/Christian tradition but originalist fundamentalist US Constitutional intent.So-called strictly “fiscal” conservatives or strictly “social” conservatives are not “true” conservatives as they have divided the purity of the ideology.Sarah Palin,warts and all,is,at this time,the only TRUE conservative with a chance of beating Obama—in spite of the lies the Leftist MSM and RINOs spread—if anything,when THOSE devils tell you she is unelectable you best swallow a whole pasture salt-lick brick with the information.
So any who criticize Sarah is thus fair game for any SP supporter response whether profane or prudent because we are debating here WHO we want to save America from the evil Obama Left and thus sometimes heads,and keypads,get a little heated—but it is not personal and the Admin monitors keep it from getting really out of hand.
Or are you just TOO STUPID to understand that!!!!/sarc
