The Palin Problem

Gene44, are you serious....putting Palin and O'bama on the same playing field is like comparing a Geo to a Mercedes. It frightens me how many more Americans are out there that share your opinion. From your brief post I can see that you struggle with the English language already so hope I'm not going too fast for you...the NeoConcervative Party (Republicans in case you are confused) is breaking down more and more everyday. The Libertarian Party (the Republicans of the 1940's), don't have near enough strength to make a comeback so you are all SOL. Do your research on experience before posting outlandish comments about OUR President of the United States.

57% of my fellow Americans are dumb. And we are getting dumber. Sarah Palin is just a reflection of how dumb we really are. She was very close to becoming Vice President. George Bush Jr. is another example of how dumb are. America is in great decline.

Sorry to inform you, friend, there is no leftist media or political party in this country and just because you and your lunatic fringe Conservative Republicans can't pick a qualified VP is your problem. If there was a leftist party or media in this country then we would be discussing real change istead of this watered down crap we have to settle for because of our Congress and their affiliations with the powerful and wealthy in this so-called democracy. Sarah Palin does not have the knowledge nor the skills to be Governor of Alaska let alone the President and the fact that people like you who have and would vote for her is a testimony to complete ignorance and stupidity.

Sarah Palin makes George Bush look smart, something I thought was impossible.

He Refuses to Relinquish the Governorship.

Sarah Palin: 2 1/2 Year Governorship. No National or International Experience, i.e. Congress Woman or US Senator. No Alaskan Pipeline, though the Media Allowed her to get Away with [Blatantly Lying]at the ..

2008 RNC Convention, when she Asserted that the Pipeline was being Built, when not One Pipe has been Laid and Gas Companies she Snubbed and Prevented from Bidding in the Contract Process, to make the Pipeline...

When in Fact, the Gas Leases are Owned by Big Oil-Gas.

Trans Canada was given [500 Million $$] of the Alaskan State Money an they'd Only Build the Pipeline, Not Supplying the Gas, in any event.

In any case, the Gas Pipeline's Cost More than [27 Billion $$] !!

Guess who will be Financing the [28 Billion $$] Pipeline ..Hmm

[The Dreaded US Government] Tada !!

Can You People not See how Unstable,Unhinged, Un-Predictable & Sparatic this Woman is ?

She's No [Maverick]

John McCain Looks [Normal] Compared to Sarah Palin's Movement.

The Worst McCain did was Pretend to [Suspend] his Campaign Last Year.

McCain Never [Quit-Resigned]

Even during the [Keating 5 Scandal]
--------------------------

Sarah Palin is a Hollow,Floating Bubble, Just Air Up There.

Blames the Media, yet Runs to the Media at Any Given Chance. Matt Lauer, Wolf Blitzer to Sean Hannity.

Mass Media, is Mass Media.

Is Not Fox News the most Watched of the Cable News Programs..Hmm

The Dum Dum is [Done]

Sarah Palin:A Point Guard Does Not Quit, the Game,Unless Injured, Benched or Fouled Out a Game.

------------------------


Palin, Used Basketball & the Point Guard Position as a Metaphor regarding the Game of Politics was a ...

[Very-Bad Example]


A Point Guard will Not Quit a [Game]

Especially Mid-Way Through the 3rd Quarter of a Crucial Game, to Quit is not, Passing the Ball, to Advance or Help the Team, its...

[Quitting] [Phoning it in] & [Giving Up]

Plain & Simple.


In Palin's case, the Game is called [Politics]

Note: Unless he or She is Pulled, Benched, Injured-Fouled Out...

I Repeat, He-She Will Not Quit Mid-Way in the 3rd Quarter...

He or She will Finish the [Game]

If Sarah Palin Can not Handle the Media Pressure from a Governors Stand Point [Alaska] how in the Hell can she Handle the Congress, Senate,VP of the USA or the...

Highest Office in the Land, The Presidency of the USA.

Palin Couldn't Cut it and there's Much More to her Abrupt & Hurried Resignation than what Palin Revealed Yesterday, but its coming.

Basketball Exposes Cheats, Quitters & Pretenders.

Jr. Alaskan Republican Sen.Lisa Murkowski: 'Deeply Disappointed' Sarah Palin 'Decided to Abandon the State"

"I am deeply disappointed that the governor has decided to abandon the state and her constituents before her term has concluded,"

"Ohio officials are investigating whether government computer systems were illegally accessed to acquire personal information about "Joe the Plumber," The Columbus Dispatch reports.

Public records requested by The Dispatch reveal information on Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher's driver's license or his sport-utility vehicle was pulled from the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles database.

Information on Wurzelbacher was obtained on Oct. 17 through an account used by the Cuyahoga County Child Support Enforcement Agency in Cleveland, The Dispatch reported records as showing.
Access to such information from BMV computers is restricted to legitimate law enforcement and government business.

The Dispatch reported that information on Wurzelbacher was accessed by accounts assigned to the office of Ohio Attorney General Nancy H. Rogers, the Cuyahoga County Child Support Enforcement Agency and the Toledo Police Department."

FREEDOM ISN'T FREE

To all the people who are supporting Obama please make sure you go out and vote these polls dont mean nothing.Make every vote count We cant afford to loose another one again.If you can vote early .THANK YOU

Baby I'll be there to take your hand,
Baby I'll be there to share the land
That they'll be giving away, when we all live together.

So, in the exchange with "Joe the plumber" we find out that Obama really is as radical as his early political acquaintances, and is into the failed economic policy of wealth redistribution. Yahoo, back to the 70's we go! So now we know that an Obama presidency really would be as if it were Carter's lost second term after all.

WOW, I knew that I was getting a left-winged magazine, but this cover of Sarah Palin and the pictures inside that follow really shows a lack of respect and dignity toward her as a fellow human being.
I had hoped that getting Newsweek would give me the "other sides" view on things but this isn't what I was looking for. I will be cancelling my subscription from here forth. Congratulations!

Obama's view of the future of America - Socialism which is the next step to Communism!!


Under socialism a ruling class of intellectuals, bureaucrats and social planners decide what people want or what is good for society and then use the coercive power of the State to regulate, tax, and redistribute the wealth of those who work for a living. In other words, socialism is a form of legalized theft.

The morality of socialism can be summed-up in two words: envy and self-sacrifice. Envy is the desire to not only possess another's wealth but also the desire to see another's wealth lowered to the level of one's own. Socialism's teaching on self-sacrifice was nicely summarized by two of its greatest defenders, Hermann Goering and Bennito Mussolini. The highest principle of Nazism (National Socialism), said Goering, is: "Common good comes before private good." Fascism, said
Mussolini, is "a life in which the individual, through the sacrifice of his own private interests??realizes that completely spiritual existence in which his value as a man lies."

Socialism is the social system which institutionalizes envy and self-sacrifice: It is the social system which uses compulsion and the organized violence of the State to expropriate wealth from the producer class for its redistribution to the parasitical class.

Despite the intellectuals' psychotic hatred of capitalism, it is the only moral and just social system.

Capitalism is the only moral system because it requires human beings to deal with one another as traders--that is, as free moral agents trading and selling goods and services on the basis of mutual consent.

Capitalism is the only just system because the sole criterion that determines the value of thing exchanged is the free, voluntary, universal judgement of the consumer. Coercion and fraud are anathema to the free-market system.

It is both moral and just because the degree to which man rises or falls in society is determined by the degree to which he uses his mind. Capitalism is the only social system that rewards merit, ability and achievement, regardless of one's birth or station in life.

Yes, there are winners and losers in capitalism. The winners are those who are honest, industrious, thoughtful, prudent, frugal, responsible, disciplined, and efficient. The losers are those who are shiftless, lazy, imprudent, extravagant, negligent, impractical, and inefficient. [What about the role of luck­being in the right place at the right time or the wrong place at the wrong time? R. R. Pope}

Capitalism is the only social system that rewards virtue and punishes vice. This applies to both the business executive and the carpenter, the lawyer and the factory worker.

Also, I had heard about an email about this, looked it up last night & found this link, the when I woke up this morning, somehow I ended up on CNN news, they were really getting into the story & nobody is even disputing it, on the Obama side. It is all being ran by his supports. It started in Chicago but the news piece was from Philly. It's not good...

Nins: Thank You for saying that. I agree, the -nasty- talk is not helping any cause, only making him look bad & like you said, it kinda makes Obama supporters look bad, not all, but a few. I am passionate about my opinions, but I don't attack anyone here. Anyway, Thanx again!
