Chafee calls Palin a "cocky whacko"
WPRI ^ | 9-11-08

Posted on 09/11/2008 11:10:31 AM PDT by SJackson

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) - Former U.S. Sen. Lincoln Chafee is weighing in on Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin and his comments are less than kind.

During an interview with Steven Clemons from the New America Foundation, Chafee called the Governor of Alaska a "cocky whacko." He also said her "agressive, belligerent" approach is wrong for foreign policy.

Palin is making that pantywaist wet his underware. Chaffee, for all his pegigree, has not accomplished anything close to Palin and she didn’t have a boost of family name. The best thing for Governor Palin is for good-for-nothing Chaffee to keep talking.

“Chafee said Sen. John McCain’s selection of Palin may have energized the wrong base.”

Has this guy EVER voted with W on anything?

Her aggressive and belligerent approach will put the vice on our own govt spending habits and gluttony our "representatives" have displayed over the years. THat is what scares those types who complain about her.

They said the same about Reagan. But he was proven right.

Hey Chafee...Why didn’t you just call her a dingbat, and tell her to “Stifle it!”? Oh yeah! She’s more of a man than you, and she can “take you out”.

“Sarah said knock you out!”

;oP (THHHHHBBBBBBBTTTT!)

I think a photoshop of a “Beavis and Butthead” Obama and Biden would be very appropriate.

Chafee is the perfect example of what happens when party comes before principle. Why on earth the RNC, the senatorial reelection committee and the President felt they had to put their money and weight behind this pantywaist IN THE PRIMARY is beyond comprehension.

Exactly. If Chafee actually got those calls, it was probably from an organized little group of DUmmies or KOS Kidz.

In the summer of 2007, Chafee left the Republican party and became and independent.

Babblefish Translation:

In the summer of 2007, Chafee, thankfully, left the Republican party and became, against all odds, a independent bigger assclown than he was already genetically predisposed to be.

Neoliberals are such masters of nuance.

Like college frats at a strip club.

It was cute to see the dishonest media a few months ago gush that even some Republicans love Obama, and then trot out Chaffee as an example, as if he was ever more than a RINO!
