Sarah Palin Resigns

[slacker921]

I LOL at people who still support Palin.


AIPAC ❤'s Palin

I like Sarah as well.

Of the four, Obama, McCain, Biden or Palin, I would take Sarah Palin any day.

Perfect candidate - not at all - but better than many if not most. I like her willingness to develop energy resources. I like that she's not a polished insider politician. I like that she hunts. I like her speaking out for disabled children. I like her "small government" and private sector approach to development.

Sparebulb's got some issues with Palin - too bad he didn't share any opinions worthy of attention.

Palin better than O'commie, McTraitor, and Blighden? Sure, I'll go with that.

Palin's "willingness to develop energy resources" = oil company lobbyist

Palin "not a polished insider politician" = she's incompetent, insufficiently educated, and obtuse

"I like that she hunts" = you respond positively to staged visuals. So did millions of Germans in the '30's and '40's

"I like her speaking out for disabled children" = So do I. I like puppies, too.

"I like her "small government" and private sector approach to development" = Recycled George W Bush's 2000 campaign promise. That worked out great, didn't it.

"Sparebulb's got some issues with Palin - too bad he didn't share any opinions worthy of attention." = I obviously got your attention, therefore, it was worthy.

Remember she was rumored to be on Ron's short list for VP too!​

Yeah, I was wondering why all the Palin hate. Back in 2007, here on the ron paul forums, there was a lot of discussion about who, if anyone, should be RP's vice presidential nominee. Palin was mentioned more than anyone (Sanford was also mentioned). There was a reason that Palin was so well liked here in 07, and that was primarily her record. McCain was disliked, and I guess Palin was automatically disliked because of McCain. But we liked her in 2007 for a good reason.

I like Sarah Palin. I'm sure there is a plan somewhere in there. tones

Agreed. There are many plans available. Senate in 2010 or President in 2012.
Resigning will look brilliant if she runs for President in 2012.

Yes, resigning looks not so good right now, because people are conditioned to believe in "keep your political job at all costs", and people rarely resign for "good" reasons.

The case she can make would make her look good and the incumbents that she's running against look bad. "I quit my job to run for President. It's a great job, I love my job. My opponent loves his job too, he's been in the senate for 20 years. They had a vote today in the Senate. My opponent wasn't there. He's not doing his job."

Resigning looks not so good right now, but when she's running for President, it will look like a brilliant strategic move.

In addition, resigning now will allow her to spend a lot more time down here helping Republicans get elected in 2009 and especially 2010. She draws huge numbers when she speaks - 20k in upstate NY less than 2 months ago.

Palin has never completed a single job that she started. It is her pattern to sweep into office as a "reformer", stir up a bunch of shit, cause mayhem and blame everyone else for everything, and then resign. She's very good at pointing out the ethical improprieties of others, yet conveniently ignores her own. All the while, playing the victim of "vicious" attacks upon her family.

So much for the pitbull with lipstick. At the end of the day, she's just another poltical opportunist looking for the next better thing and counting on support from those that are too lazy or stupid to scrutinize her record.

LOL! 4 threads on this, and the most popular has a title that, while not entirely wrong, is rather misleading.

AIPAC ❤'s Palin

That's where she lost me. She met AIPAC even before she met the press.

But that's what wins elections.

She also said the Iraq War was a task from God. What a nutbag.

I do not make it a policy to self censor my thoughts or speech to accommodate your sensitivities, Virgil. If you have a grievance with any of my posts, take it up with the Moderator.

I don't have any difficulty with your choice of words just your desire to belittle those that you don't like.

In case you haven't noticed, Virgil, libertarianism is not an orthodoxy. And it sure as hell isn't to be determined by an anonymous internet troll such as you.

The way you portray libertarianism is certainly unorthodox and speaking of trolls. If the shoe fits Mr. Trollmiester.

You don't like my language? You haven't specifically said that.

You are correct at least in this observation.

You think that people like me are what is wrong with America? It is interesting that you think that you have the ability to determine that. You sound like a political eugenicist. Very un-libertarian.

My skill in determining your apparent lack of knowledge comes from many years of observing the political process. It is apparent from your posts that you do not have this experience and therefore have no idea of how the process was designed to work. You also do not appear to be aware of many of the nuances of today's political process.

You think that I'm trying to harm the Ron Paul movement? That's right. Millions of voters will reject Ron Paul and libertarianism all because some off-color comment made by a lone internet message board contributor that doesn't like Palin. I guess that makes sense to someone with his head stuffed up close to his duodenum.

With time and experience you will come to understand how even one person can damage a candidate and his platform. I hope for your sake that someday you outgrow your propensity for off color remarks and develop a better command of our language.

You don't like that I am critical of Palin? I think we have a winner.

Being critical of Palin is not the issue. Your acting in a juvenile and uneducated manner is what I find offensive. I truly thought that the vast majority of Ron Paul supporters had better than average educations and were capable of expressing themselves in an adult and reasoned manner.

Virgil47 attempts to muzzle people that criticize his inspirational friend, Sarah Palin. Again, Virgil, I remind you that this is not the Palin2012 message board.

Palin did not get elected and I see no reason for your off color and juvenile comments about a governor of one of the 50 states. If you are truly so fascinated with Palin that you must post about her please try to use grown up language.

Virgil47, you seem to have some vested interest in Sarah Palin. Is she your slutty cousin or something?

She also said the Iraq War was a task from God. What a nutbag.

That's not what she said. That's what the libtards said she said.

This is what she said: "Pray for our military men and women who are striving to do what is right. Also, for this country, that our leaders, our national leaders, are sending [U.S. soldiers] out on a task that is from God. That's what we have to make sure that we're praying for, that there is a plan and that plan is God's will."

She said we should be praying that we are doing God's will, not at all sounding sure that we were doing God's will.

My opinion on Palin is that out of the bag she was refreshing and has a understanding of the need for domestic energy production thru her relationship with her husband who works the oil fields and living in ALaska. SHe was refreshing up to the point that McCain put her into liberal wrapping, instead of unleashing her raw and over prepared. McCain wasn't what anyone wanted... reminds me of the asinine pick of Bob Dole a few years back. These rubes think that time in gives you some misguided priority as the "leader" small "L".

Then recently every time she turns around some loser is starting another unfounded "investigation" against her. That detracts from governing but also shows the fear in the opposition and the Republican party of Sarah Palin. Is her treatment that much different of Dr. Paul's? He's marginalized as a fringe "kook" by the same people. Remember the November 5th money bomb? They made a jackass attempt of connecting him to V or Guy Fawkes as a "terrorist" instead of looking at the positions those characters took against oppression. If she wasn't such a concern to the "system" they'd hardly pay attention, but she might turn out to be a cult of personality and take away votes from what the "system" wants to continue. Remember Romney is the "business" guy this time around and they GOP will use that to their advantage while Palin is possibly a different direction. Wasn't she part of a free state movement or something?
