Sarah Palin run for Prez

[VaYank5150]

Palin raised taxes on oil companies and used that money to give bigger checks to Alaskans. Full-stop. It doesn't matter if the land was leased or not.

That's very liberal of her.

Palin went after oil companies and their corruptness in her state. What they have is called the Alaska Permanent Fund Dividend. Here is is. Look at the increases of money to their checks under Palin.

She imposed a windfall profits tax on oil. She did so by allying herself with Alaska Democrats,

and opposing the CONSERVATIVES in the Alaska legislation.

That's because in real life, before she fell victim to celebrity,

she was a PRAGMATIC MODERATE REPUBLICAN...

...aka a RINO.

Of course all of that changed after her selection for VP.

Hmmmm....this sure sounds like Socialism to me.

 

[NYcarbineer]

Gabrielle Giffords is now going to become a beloved national figure, and in contrast, Sarah Palin will now become, forever,

the anti-Gabrielle Giffords.

That's just how perceptions work.

And you know what they say, "Perception is reality."

Well according to California Girl in a thread a few days ago, Perception is Fact. lol

Will the Arizona tragedy end Palin's presidential hopes? - The Week

The shooting of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords is being called a "turning point" and a "defining moment" for Sarah Palin, whose use of gun imagery (a 2010 campaign "map" targeting Giffords district with a crosshairs symbol and a call to "reload") has been linked, unfairly or not, to the Arizona tragedy. As soon as the media made the connection, Palin's odds to win the 2012 Republican presidential nomination started sinking sharply at Irish bookmaker InTrade. Can Palin recover, or even thrive, from this tragedy, or could it end her political ambitions forever?

 

[rightwinger]

Toward the end of 2010, an increasing number of conservative voices began publicly raising concerns about her viability as a '12 nominee, and a poll at the end of December found a staggering drop -- 20 points in a year -- in the number of Republicans who said they were receptive to the idea of supporting Palin for the '12 nod. Watching the struggles of Sharron Angle, Christine O'Donnell, Ken Buck and others seemed to be having an effect on the right's assessment of Palin.

And now, the news media is freely mixing in reminders of Palin's most provocative antics with its coverage of a bloody shooting rampage

what a disgusting article to come out right after this TRADEGY and you disgust me for posting it.
goosestepping parrot.

 

[Flopper]

I don't think Palin ever thought she had a chance of being elected, else why would she be working so hard to make herself non-electable.

If Palin truly has Presidential aspirations, she needs to take this opportunity to show she is "Presidential". Playing the victim is not becoming of a future president.

She used improper sybology with her crosshairs and "Don't Retreat...RELOAD" rhetoric. Sarah needs to "man-up" and accept personal responsibility. She needs to say "I regret the imagery that was used and the possible affect it had on the Giffords family".

Sending cryptic emails to Glenn Beck about how everyone is picking on you is not presidential

LOL, you giving Palin "advice" on how she should ACT, is a fxxking laugh riot.
I could tell you to "act" like a decent being, but it wouldn't make a damn difference.

 

[rightwinger]

Palin needs to man up and appear on mainstream media and show some contrition. Playing the victim here while Giffords lapses in and out of a coma is not Presidential.

Palin needs to admit that her imagery was not intended to provoke violence but may have been considered innapropriate. She also needs to vow to turn down her rhetoric in the future

Hiding from the media and playing the victim will end her future presidential chances....if she ever had any

It's called "strategery"...

 

[JakeStarkey]

In fact, Sarah Palin is America's secret weapon. It's true!

If Sarah gets elected President, America will take over the world! They know it!

'Cause if she gets elected everyone else in every other country in the world is going to DROP DEAD FROM LAUGHING SO HARD!

Then the world will be ours!

They may, but how informed is the rest of the world. I know what some in Bulgaria say about Obama, they believe we are regressing to the state Bulgaria was in under Communist fools, the three Bulgarians I worked with all agreed. So I will take being laughed at instead of scorned for sliding closer towards Marxism.

See if they are supporters of Monarchy or the Arrow Cross factions. If they are, they would think anyone beyond Joe Scarborough is a flaming communist.

 

[JakeStarkey]

The victim here is Giffords and the other casualties, not Sarah in any way shape form or fashion.

Oh really, Palin DIDN'T ASK to get drugged into this bY a bunch of idiots with a AGENDA.
but here she is.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Her group posted that stupid image, and, yes, she is responsible for whatever the group does in her name.

The question is not whether the inference you resent is fair, Stephanie, but how much said inference can be repaired. Among non-right wingers I don't think it can.

Her campaign is over before it got started.

 

[whitehall]

In light of the recent tragedy in Az wouldn't it be prudent to lay off Sarah Palin for a while instead of trolling for hate-speech?

yeah, you, your party with the help of the Lapdog media made sure of that, didn't you.
