Palin: "Why I am speaking at Tea Party convention."

[payme_rick]

She became a complete neocon tool in the election, .

oh, she for sure was... for a verrry short time... she's really nothing to me right now... "to me" she's just floating around...

hell I was a neocon tool in a way... I spoke out their talking points non-stop to whoever I would discuss politics with, even turning some opinions around... but the dust never settled with me...

 

[Dieseler]

My opinion is she is still very raw, not necessarily dumb but by no means a genius... sort of like most all of us here give or take a few special cases.
She needs better influences but that is not likely to happen due to her quick rise to fame. Maybe she'll start reading here and some how find a way to not take offense by what she sees and possibly stick around long enough to get a perspective aside from the ones she is no doubt getting both barrels of right now.
Who knows?
I've heard it said that Paul was a head hunter before he met Christ.
I don't think Sarah Palin is a head hunter.
That said, Sarah Palin in the White House is probably one of the most frightening things I can imagine, lol.
Not because she is stupid but because she is ignorant and very likely to be steered by people who do not have our best interest at heart.

agreed... that's where I see her at right now... my gut tells me she WILL be steered in the wrong direction... but as the dust was not settled on my political views, I do not believe the dust has settled on her being anything as of yet...

she's dabbled, but she hasn't set her hooks in anything...

 

[BlackTerrel]

i missed that....but the original plan was for her to get paid 100 K...

it drew criticism so apparaently she was forced to back away.....
she does admit she is getting paid....but will turn it over..

So, why was she getting paid in the first place?

I don't see what the problem is with getting paid.

I don't like Palin or support her - but I can think of plenty people who I like less. Not sure why she gets so much disproportionate criticism on this site.

Sarah Palin is not the worst GOP type out there. She was like an almost there....but not quite.

[kpitcher]

If she does public speaking like her governing she'll start the speech and about 1/2 way through her scheduled time she'll announce she's finished and walk off the stage. Then she'll go out front to offer autographs for a fee.

 

[PreDeadMan]

what truly disturbs me and scares me about Palin is when she says the Iraq war was "god's plan" using religion into politics like that is pretty dangerous lol....murdering people in the name of spreading democracy is god's plan right..... and the scary thing is she gets a bunch of applauses after those types of statements :|

I have a huge problem with here in that this National Tea Party exists only to hijack what we did in 2007 in support of Ron Paul and the tyranny which exists.

I posted on Huffington Post today., and got hit several times with racism and red neckism's and never complained when George Bush was in the White House; but now that there is a black man, I'm complaining.

Of course I posted where the tea parties began in 2007; well before Obama was even considered viable for the nomination. Of course Huffington didn't like that and refused to post it...

But once you have neocons and those that are "for profit", trying to hijack the movement.... you lose all credibility. And every news media outlet there is atm, is saying Palin's tea partiers...

She can act cute and sincere, but she was paid off to drive the tea party influence into the ground... sorry, that's what I believe.

 

[RATM99]

I don't like Palin because she's a Neo-Con that offers nothing new but the same big government republican nonsense Bush gave us. And the Tea Party paying Sarah to speak exposes the Tea Party for what it is. A total farce and fake opposition.

The scary thing is that you are the one who is misinformed and was bought into the liberal talking points. She has never said the Iraq was a "god's plan". She said "we pray for our leaders who are sending out on a task that is from god. make sure we are praying for, that there is a plan and that it is God’s plan".
So to bring what she said to your liberal mind: she was praying.

You know why most people on this site don't like her? Because most of them here are liberals in libertarian clothes.

nope


its because we can see right through her for the ambitious, two-faced, war mongering, neo-con, Zio-Christian, money hungry, quittting, bailout supporting, low IQ phony that she truly is

I hate her because she stole the sincerity of what our entire purpose is... We (who many could ill afford it) stood up for this country. We went to tea parties and I, sacrificed groceries for the week, to contribute to money bombs for Ron Paul to save our nation. And to see a neo con, jerk... dumbass, opportunist try to rob us of our accomplishments in order to help John McCain regain his senate seat?

No thank you !!!!! I'm actually mad as hell at what she and the "National" tea party have done to destroy what we worked so hard to accomplish. Send Sarah home... She has been hired by someone, whether it be demos or repubs to take down the movement.... and she is working hard to do so.

Even tonight on CNN, they were talking about candidates and whether the tea party would approve of them or not. The GOP and DNC so threatened... what better tart could you get than Sarah "sho me the money" Palin to take it down? She's an absolute joke... If you can't remember how well respected she is, maybe this will refresh your memory: Is this what you want the tea party memories to be of?

The endorsement will help Rand i guess so we can be happy and welcome it, but good god wouldn't it be great to watch Ron give her an education in the 2012 debates.


How she is so popular is beyond me- she can barely string a sentence together ffs.

 

[Dianne]

Palin is destroying everything the tea party stood for... We MUST stand up and somehow tell the nation she is not a representative of our movement.

Otherwise, we need to move on and find another way of expression... but she is making a joke out of our resolve. And that is not by accident, that is be design by whomever paid her to do so.

Why do people not think for a second?

She came to power with her own hands. Look up to see how she become a governor.

The republicans detest Ron Paul and Rand Paul. Why would she endorse Rand Paul? Somebody paid her? Are you freaking kidding me?

So far none of you have shown me a reasonable answer to how she is being controlled by someone.
That just shows how narrow minded you guys are.

First, she is not a backstabber. McCain helped her. Now she helps him back. That is how sincere works.
You bring up SNL skits to prove your points, that is very mature.

First, anybody can write s.th about Palin: neo-con or whatever. She is not perfect. Perfect is the enemy of getting things done.

McCain supported the first bailout. What do you expect her to do as a vice-president candidate? again she is not perfect but a reasonable person.

the bailout was 750 trillion dollar THEFT...biggest heist in world history and we still don't know who got a lot of this money.

so let me get this straight....you are OK with Palin supporting theft because she "was just following orders" from McCain?

Thats not too "mavericky" is it?

If your boss is engaged in theft, and asks you to go along with him....the judge will throw you in jail for saying, 'I went along with it cuz he was my boss. I had to."

If Palin had any principles, she would have stepped down from the ticket after McCain voted for that theft. Think what a legend she would have become then.

Trust me...I've been down this road before. In 2000, George Bush was marketed as a "Texas conservative" and a "maverick".......the right bought that phony too.

If you support Palin, it means you support the mass murder of innocent women and children in far away lands and the massive theft of US taxpayer money.
