Sarah Palin Changes Foreign Policy Team, Hires Peter Schweizer

Sarah Palin has a new foreign policy adviser. Out is Randy Scheunemann, one of the few remaining links to her time on the McCain/Palin ticket, and in is Peter Schweizer, a fellow at the Hoover Institution......
Incoming adviser Peter Schweizer is seen to view the United States with a more limited role in world affairs.
The shift in adviser might have been reflected in a foreign policy speech Palin delivered last night in Colorado. She called on American foreign policy to have clearly defined objectives. In recent weeks she has been critical of U.S. policy in Libya for its lack of clarity.
In Colorado last night, Palin said, "We can't fight every war
We can't undo every injustice in the world. Read more about her Colorado speech here.

I agree. This is very promising and a good move for Sarah Palin.
Getting rid of McCain baggage is a good thing.

Yep and i think she will make her return visit to Israel first before the primary states.... she told the people at the MSNBC after party that she will decide in the middle of the Summer - i can see a scenario of July 5 or somewhere around that time.

Orion strategics had many clients....and having one group a couple of years that was funding by SOROS over and issue about a small kingdom in Africa isn’t.... exactly connecting the dots

Good move by Sarah Palin and encouraging for her supporters. The lady has learned a lot about how to run a national campaign (as a conservative). She realizes that the leftmedia will try to portray her as a dummy so, on every major issue, including foreign policy, she has to be solid on the facts and have a clear, easily understandable plan for what she would do if she were president. Just saying how wrong Obama is won't cut it and I'm sure Palin knows all this.
Obama is very vulnerable because of the poor economy and although the assassination of bin Laden is a boost for him, it will fade quickly and his lame foreign policy, basically to insult and/or abandon our allies and appease and pander to our enemies, will still be a liability for him. Few Americans think this makes any sense and Palin can hammer him on it - and the fact that this policy has been basically fruitless. It could get interesting.

Your admiration & profuse injection to somehow cover for a naive political decision by a new comer to the game in 2008 brings to mind a song that reminds me of those that elected the fraud we currently have:

Oh, and I forgot to add:
“Bill Ayers was just a guy who happened to live in the fraud’s neighborhood”
Yeah, you keep telling yourself that if it helps.

Your complete lack of objectivity concerning Palin, and your attempt to incorrectly label her supporters as naive and/or uneducated when the reverse is true, outs you as probably at least a supporter of another candidate, probably Ron Paul, and most assuredly, as a PDS sufferer.
You, my friend, have all the signs of that sad disease and shown by your own posting history.

i don’t subscribe to insane conspiracy theories that are baseless and debunked....even Glenn Becks people (who have been going after Soros for a long time) though of the connection of Palin and Soros through Orion was laughable and pointed out why! Running to libertarian website who decide a long time ago to go after Palin and Huffington Post and other notable liberal websites to justify Palin/Soros connection is dumb and stupid.

I get it...I once had a sister whom my parents kept on a pedestal for decades until the veil was lifted from their eyes & it was revealed that their cherished one was not perfect, but merely human & thus susceptible to human error.
Your mistake is attacking me for pointing out the truth of Sarah's political naivety as if it was a bad thing. I like Sarah, but I refuse to put ANY political figure above reproach as you just have.

You've proved nothing concerning YOUR OPINION of Sarah's politicaal Naivety.
You've provided no Prima Facie evidence that supports YOUR CONCLUSION.
Try providing some real evidence before you state YOUR OPINION as fact.

I think a first examination is our aid to Pakistan. Why should America be going into debt financing a country who cannot even control who is living in a fortified compound basically across the street from a local police station? Also in town? A brigade of Pakistans 2nd Army and a military school that is said to be Pakistans version of West Point. The fortified nature of Osama Bin Laden’s compound tells me that they did not want just anyone to peek in.
A call to end aid to Pakistan would be a budget saving measure.

She is the ONLY one... the ONLY one (that may end up running) that sees America the way that our Founders saw her. Sarah is among a handful of people that I still trust in America... and that is a small and shrinking list.

And you have just proved that you have been indulging in the koolaide a wee bit more than one should be. Talk about “DSers”. Devout Palin fans that act like she is some sort of conservative female messiah is as sickening as watching tingle-up-my-leg Matthews drool over the “WON”.
Like I said: “THANK YOU SARAH”!

NO, I am not nor ever have I been a piss-ant. I voted GOP in 2008 ONLY because Sarah was on the ticket, I have supported her PAC financially ever since, but I WILL NOT hold her up on a pedestal.
GET THE PICTURE!
