George Will: Everyone Knows Sarah Palin Should Not Be Trusted With Nuclear Weapons
Mediate ^ | Sunday May 29, 2011 | Matt Schneider

Posted on 05/29/2011 1:58:02 PM PDT by Bigtigermike

With Sarah Palin fever sweeping across the media again, persistent Palin critic and conservative commentator George Will clearly was not excited by the speculation surrounding her potential run for President. Donna Brazile, Jonathan Karl and Ed Gillespie joined in on the conversation, yet Will had the most pointed remarks regarding how Palin is a “genius at manipulating” the infinite media attention she receives.

Christiane Amanpour began the segment commenting “no one steals a show like Sarah Palin,” and while Will admits she will have a huge impact on the nomination process if she does decide to run, he still dismisses the idea that she has even the slightest chance of winning. Will suggests Palin’s problem:

“The threshold question, not usually asked, but it’s in everyone’s mind in a presidential election. ‘Should we give this person nuclear weapons?’ And the answer [in Palin's case], answers itself.”

Yes, they did, and this Weiner used to be a suck-up for Reagan, but only after he won. If Palin wins, he will do the same. He’s a washed up has been anyway, and I guess he sees what David Brooks and would like to join him in obscurity.

One os the best things about a President Palin is that she would not have (unlike some previous republican presidents) a liberal whispering into her ear at night.

baseball A-hole,, explain to us how Obama should have been, or apocalyptic ALGore, or Clinton who took campaign cash from Red China.

What has Sarah ever done or said that makes her look unstable and war prone? She has a son in the Army. Does George Will? Did any Bush kid go to the middle east? Did i miss Chelsea or the Gore daughters serving in a combat zone?

When he says he doesn’t trust Sarah, he is giving a big finger to those of us who easily see her character.

And then he expects us to respect his opinion. If he is a Romneybot, that confirms for me how he expects Romney to act in DC.

George Will, you hold your nose so high in the air that if it rained you’d drown. Arrogance does not equal intelligence, Mr. Will. If it did, you’d be a genius. But it doesn’t, so you’re merely arrogant.

George Will is one of the Republican elite and NO ONE hates Palin more than the elite.

George Will has become the ABC News version of a New York Times conservative.

What a dick. I bet he said the same thing about Reagan...

As I recall his wife worked in the Reagan White House.

I used to shock people over 30 years ago by saying George Will the newspaper columnist was way too liberal.

Is this the same guy? You all still pay attention to him? Turn off the TV folks. There’s this new thing called the internet. I’ve not been troubled by George Will and his liberal/totalarian fellow travellers for well over 10 years now.

The ruling elite rules you, in part, by getting you to listen to their pablum. Tune them out!

Unless the GOP purges itself of these people it will cease to exist.

"It" already has. All that remains is the name. The unfortunate reality is that the time required to replace it extends dominance of the socialists.

George Will on Palin: "Should we give this person nuclear weapons?"

George Will on Obama: "Barack Obama...is refreshingly cerebral"

I’ve always thought George Will shouted above his footings so that he could reach his level of competence.

Whom does you husband think should be king?

I see a couple who would be good choices but they aren’t running. Stick to your guns. Cristy is bad news, once you look into him, same with T-Paw. Perry looks good on the surface, but my, my once you peel back the hair, well you will probably find more than a few things that you don’t like about him.

Remember all these guys move their message to the right, but their heart is progressive.

George said all those things about Reagan, and more. They hated this upstart that came out of no where and nearly knocked the incumbent, Gerry Ford out of the race. Ford could have run again but chose not to, wonder why?
