<sigh> I guess so. Which of Sarah's values do you dislike the most? Is it her patriotism, her family values, her God.... which is the worst of those?

I never stated that I disliked any of her values or her personally.
I think she is way underqualified for the job that you want her to have. Think of this as asking for references during a job interview and I'm hearing "well, she's hot, loves her family, and reads all the papers every day." Ummmm.... that doesn't answer my question on how she is QUALIFIED to do the most important job in this country.

[fairlycrazy23]

Well, I might be a pig, but I'm in my forties and I think she is hot.

Paul, How did you get this conversation word for word? Do you have a recorded in your car? Just wondering....

Nothing like the wrath of a woman who feels threatened or up staged by another female. And for God's sake men don't comment on her looks etc in front of the wife or you will think you fell in a tiger cage.

I have been in that cage. Not fun.

Actually, Slow, I want Herman Cain, but that does not mean I don't like Sarah. I DO like Sarah.

That's pretty funny!! Yes, women can be catty. I'm too old to be jealous of other women, and I think Sarah being a 10 is neat. I remember when I was younger, though, how the prettiest girls had so many problems with less pretty girls starting rumors and lies about them.. LOL!!! One of my fav things about Sarah is that she is even a 10 in her fishing clothes, or her hunting gear, and with her hair all windblown and out of place. She doesn't try to be sexy or anything. She just is what she is, and it drives people insane!! I love it!!

Sarah Palin took plenty of public money and spent it on the state of Alaska. She is not in any way an ideal if we want to reduce Govt spending to may be 20% of what it is today. She won't get my vote.

I've been reading you, ravinglunatic, and you scare me. I've decided you aren't real, and just playing a game, but I sure could be wrong. Mind telling me WHO would get your vote?? I want to look them over carefully if you endorse them..

Perhaps Grover Norquist if he ran.

Quote from Grover:

"I don't want to abolish government. I simply want to reduce it to the size where I can drag it into the bathroom and drown it in the bathtub."

I think she is way underqualified for the job


the only qualification (imo) needed for any political job in this country, is the love this country and the willingness to do what is right for it, no matter the consequences to your personnel interests.

it is a personnel sacrifice, but that is what "public service" used to be.

Who decides what is right? I don't want a tax-and-spend politician like Sarah Palin deciding that ridiculous infrastructure investments in the middle of nowhere in Alaska is what is right for the country. Give my taxes back.

You hold Sarah working to help Alaska and Alaskans against her? I would think that is a plus. She did what she was supposed to do for her people. She did it as long as she could, until the attacks on her made it impossible for her to do her job any more. Then she passed her job to a man that could get the job done. She did THAT for Alaska, too. Depends who you prefer to listen to, I guess...

She is not helping anyone when she is spending tax dollars. Give the money back to the people. Let them spend it the way they want to spend it instead of a politician deciding to spend it on their behalf. She can go and help Alaskans out of the money she earns from Fox. I don't care about that. I it especially galls me that she took Federal tax dollars - MY tax dollars - to spend it on meaningless infrastructure pork projects in Alaska.

[Deleted]

THAT was in a different time-- and show me the politician that didn't do similar. Everything is different now. If Sarah's "people" were all Americans I'm pretty sure she could do better than Obama with his anti American, anti-business policies.

[NoMoreLunacy]

Sorry, I am not voting for a tax-and-spend politician. It doesn't matter which party they come from or whether everyone else was doing the same. What kind of an excuse is that?

[AgeOfEnlightenmentSCP]

I have my concerns about Palin's populist approach to government- especially unnerving is that weird revenue sharing thing I'll never understand with the oil companies up in Alaska and her "taking on big oil" rhetoric. However, my concerns are allayed at least in part by her "Drill, baby drill" and "all of the above" statements.

However, to call her a big government, tax and spend politician is going to require some supporting evidence of that fact. The unique AK situation notwithstanding, I see no evidence we face a George W. Bush / Obama kind of situation if Palin is elected.

[Deleted]

I would not call Sarah a tax and spend politician. Who are your fav politicians? Just throw out some names for me to google...

[NoMoreLunacy]

I already told you - Grover Norquist.

[Deleted]

That's IT?? You like one politician?? Okay.. you must be Grover Norquist. I'll go google him.

[AgeOfEnlightenmentSCP]

My real opinion concerning 2012 is that Barrack Hussein Obama has been so destructive, and so damaging to the country that our first priority needs to be to send him packing and then we can fight about policy after the enemy has been vanquished. If we really care about the country, Obama has to go. I'd vote for anyone but Obama in 2012. I'd even vote for Mitt, but I really don't like it. I think THAT would be a George W. Bush kind of situation-- he'll be very hard to manage, but at least we can manage him. He's not going to VETO a total repeal of ObamaCare, he won't VETO a corporate tax rate cut, or anything else we need to get the country moving again. But we will have to watch like hawks on spending.

Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin apparently likes a good earmark as much as most other politicians.

The watchdog group Taxpayers for Common Sense found that when Palin was mayor of little old Wasilla, Alaska she hired a well-connected law firm to lobby for nearly $27 million in earmarks. That's the kind of spending Sen. John McCain, the all-but-official Republican nominee typically rails against as pork.

The TCS report, which the Washington Post evidently got an exclusive on, suggests that Palin, who McCain recently named as his running mate, isn't the anti-earmark crusader that the man on the top of the Republican presidential ticket portrayed her as when he announced her as his veep choice.

Added to the information that Palin actually supported the infamous Alaskan bridge-to-nowhere before she opposed it, the emerging picture of Palin is of a fairly typical local and state politician interested in capturing as much federal taxpayer money for her constituency as possible.

I am sick and tired of these politicians always dipping their hands in my pocket.

[AgeOfEnlightenmentSCP]

"Earmarks" were a phony John McCain issue anyway.

[EVT1]

10 my ass. I see better looking women all of the time at the grocery store. Obviously you don't get out much. You can pick up a bar ho around here any given night that looks better than her- and drunken babble is much easier to listen to than her crazy rants.

Now if you are and old angry white guy, say Medicare age, you might think she's hot.

Why don't you go and support earmarks with your tax dollars and get me a refund then? They cost real money. If you like to spend tax dollars, spend your own and enact an opt-out provision for people like me.

Muslim issues

Norquist is the co-founder of the Islamic Free Market Institute.[26]
In 2010, Norquist, whose wife was born Muslim, emerged as the most outspoken Republican foe of politicizing the mosque-in-Manhattan issue, saying:
"This is a distraction from a winning game plan… It is very stupid, when Republicans are poised to win an overwhelming victory in November over Democratic spending, to focus attention on this issue.".[27]
He has also "announced his plan to assemble a center-right coalition to discuss pulling out of Afghanistan to save hundreds of billions of dollars."[28]
In a CPAC 2011 speech, David Horowitz accused Norquist with having connections with the Muslim Brotherhood.[29

No, I don't play those coddling terrorist games. Nor does an elitist politician with this guy's background impress me. Does he also, like you, think people should starve to death in the streets? No. Good luck with your Norquist guy. Sounds worse than Obama in several ways.

[NoMoreLunacy]

You may not like Norquist but the Republicans do.

today’s GOP adheres to a “no new taxes” orthodoxy that has proved far more powerful than the desire to balance the budget. As House Speaker John A. Boehner has said: Raising taxes is “unacceptable and a non-starter.”

This orthodoxy is now woven so deeply into the party’s identity that all but 13 of 288 GOP lawmakers in Congress have signed a formal pledge not to raise taxes. The strategist who invented the pledge, Grover G. Norquist, compares it to a brand, like Coca-Cola, built on “quality control” so that Republican voters know they will get “the same thing every time.”

Loyalty to the brand is so strong that no Republican has voted for a major federal tax increase since 1991, Norquist says. It is so widespread that more than a dozen governors and hundreds of state legislators now count themselves as adherents. And it is so well defended that its followers are constantly patrolling at both the state and federal levels for new forms of trespass.
