Team Palin says Rove may be a bit off
Politico ^ | 8-22-11 | Maggie Haberman

Posted on 08/22/2011 9:16:28 PM PDT by STARWISE

Add Karl Rove to the list of people Sarah Palin's camp is denouncing.

POLITICO's Juana Summers flags this statement from the Sarah PAC website, which - without naming him - takes an unmistakable swipe at the former White House adviser to George W. Bush:

Three years ago DC pundits predicted with glee the demise of Sarah Palin's political career. This past weekend their tune changed, citing false information that she has made a decision and set a date regarding a future campaign.

Any professional pundit claiming to have "inside information" regarding Governor Palin's personal decision is not only wrong but their comments are specifically intended to mislead the American public. These are the same tired establishment political games that fuel the 24 hour news cycle and that all American's will hopefully reject in 2012, and this is more of the "politics-as-usual" that Sarah Palin has fought against throughout her career.

PS - Kudos to CNN for setting the record straight, and including Governor Palin's own words.

Rove had said on Fox News last weekend that he believed Palin was running, based in part on her schedule in Iowa (as best as I can tell she only has the one, large-scale event in Des Moines scheduled, for Sept. 3).

Peter Hamby of CNN noted earlier that there is not exactly a river of trust between Palin and Rove, but the public pushback was a bit of a surprise.

“I don’t know what she’s doing, but judging from the scorched earth that is churned up just by questioning whether she’s running, it’s driving some of the supporters here nuts”.............if we’re “nuts”, then you’re bananas. we’re calmly waiting for Sarah’s announcement. we’re excited to hear it, but it doesn’t matter how long it takes. we’re disorganized, but we share something very powerful in our hearts. we know when it’s all over, it’s gonna be a tsumani, and Sarah’s detractors are going to be nonconsequential. it feels just like Reagan and the Contract with America, & 2010, but more so. good luck, & i hope this helps.

Oh! Wouldn’t that be just perfect??? I swear that is whatI would do if I was Sarah Palin. I can’t think of a better place for her to announce than home, where the heart is...because after this, everything in her whole life changes and it will never ever be the same. It’s almost heartbreaking.

Yes, she went after corruption right away even in the R party But let’s face it, she has been damaged by the MSM.

She is rejuvenating now, and this punk at Rove will go a Looong way with a lot of people if she plays it right.

Why would she drive me crazy?

Here's the answer:

...people who...have little patience in the waiting games she's playing.

LOL she's got you got you going, Gunru.

Now us, we have lots of patience 'cause she has got the super political smarts.

Many others got in the race MUCH too early because they are scared of the media who pushed and pushed them to get in early enough to burn out and waste money.

Palin is a media magnet, covering her makes them money. She's got them going too, Gunru.

Or I guess the term is "drives them crazy" too.

Patience, grasshopper!

My goodness gracious....doesn’t Karl Rove romp around in the Bohemian Grove with Kissinger worshipping at the altar of Ba’al and drinking from their cups while cavorting and performing homosexual acts?

I should say there is a reason for Rove’s madness...These guys at the top are all a cabal of sick perverts. It is why they are forcing repeal of DADT in the military—to destroy the Christian morality which prevented the military from turning on the civilians—all pagan/atheist militaries killed millions of their own citizens—it all makes sense. There is a reason for their madness and we better wake up.

As Machiavelli said—all power hungry people need a military to succeed. The ACORN thugs are not enough for them—they need our Christian men eliminated or converted into homosexuality which destroys character and demeans human beings and habituates them into demeaning the body....leads to brutality and a conditioning into brutality towards humans ....it is why the vast amt. of serial killers are homosexuals—sexual perverts—like Hitler, Gacy, Dahmers, Manson. Brownshirts were all homosexual (Pink Swastika—free online).

Hopefully, the good guys understand the evil forces which are trying to destroy all freedom in this country—so they can enslave and control everyone from cradle to grave and decide what you can do and think and force your children to grow up thinking all unnatural things and paganism is”good”.

Their indoctrinization and sexualization is already in the public schools led by their homosexual czars and reinforced in all media. Everything they do is intentional and to establish paganism and homosexuality and pederasty. Our country will be unrecognizable without Christian values—and it will be ugly, especially for children.

Ancient Greece is their ideal.

Hopefully, Palin runs and wins...I don’t trust many of the Republicans or Democrates....except Cain, West and Bachmann. All the others seem to be Bohemian Grove types—think you can vote away inalienable rights. Don’t know about Paul, since he backs homosexual marriage. Anyone who does, does not understand the ‘Natural Rights come from God” issue and are jeopardizing all our natural rights if they throw out God’s standards of Right and Wrong.

Coming next when you allow the left to throw out Christian standards:

At least she's closer to setting a "drop dead date" (Sept 30?, maybe) and acknowledged the obvious.

All those who said Sept 3rd was "it" can join those who said July 28th was it or July 4th was it or...

Just FYI there are 3 potential GOP debates in Sept. 2011:

But let’s face it, she has been damaged by the MSM.

Don't forget she has also damaged the MSM in return and will continue to damage them by fighting back.

They are not used to being punched back punch for punch.
She ain't into that GWB *above the fray* mode of operation.

She seems to enjoy doing it herself instead of handing it off to spokesmen.

She is extremely smart and playing the game the only way she can without being destroyed by the media. They do not want her to run and try to destroy her at every point. That is why I like her the most.

The MSM is extremely evil—controlled by a very few perverted homosexual pagan men who hate God and strong, moral women.

His face keeps getting fatter & fatter. I think his swelled head is gonna blow up! Good if it does. The “architect of George w. Bush’s landslide win in 2000. Man he is good! NOT!

Bush’s brain? I don’t think so. Bad influence on Bush? Absolutely.

Rove = windbag

Yes we do. Why are you letting the news media tell you that the campaign has started? Last I checked, not ONE vote has been cast in any primary or caucus.

Palin has her reasons and I'll bet, a PLAN. Stick to your plan Sarah, it's working.
