So yeah, I'm getting sick and tired of how people are bashing Sarah Palin over her endorsement of McCain.
We all know why she's doing it and she has my complete respect and support.
So, anyway, conservatives are fighting amongst each other over this and it really is pathetic! On Sarah's Facebook page, people keep lamenting, whining and moaning over it, and I kept calmly trying to calm them down, but they wouldn't listen. Finally, I lost it and said:
"FOR GOD'S SAKE, PEOPLE, PULL YOURSELVES TOGETHER!!!!! THIS IS NOT HOW A GROUP OF PATRIOTS ACTS!!!!!!!!
SERIOUSLY, DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO BE 100% PERFECT IN YOUR EYES IN ORDER FOR THEM TO BE A VIABLE CANDIDATE???? LAST TIME I CHECKED, NO ONE IS!
SARAH PALIN IS THE BEST CHANCE WE HAVE TO UNSEAT OBAMA AND HIS FASCIST REGIME AND YOU'RE ALL HERE TOO BUSY ARGUING ABOUT ONE ENDORSEMENT!!!!!!!! THAT IS PATHETIC!!!!!!!!!!
WE HAVE TO BE 100% UNITED IN ORDER TO DEFEAT THE SOCIALISTS!!!!!!! STOP GETTING INTO STUPID PETTY FIGHTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SARAH ENDORSED MCCAIN! OK, DONE, NEXT ISSUE, PLEASE!!!!!!!"
I'm no military guy, but I do know that in a battle, you need to have a UNITED FRONT and petty arguments like this are dividing the front!
It is obvious that Sarah Palin is the only one who can defeat Obama and that we need to be united around her!
Didn’t she also come out in support of Stupak’s “stand on life” which turned out to be a joke.
“We can’t afford to be seen discarding John McCain”
Who is WE? McCain is no conservative, he can’t even bring himself to support the RNC platform. He votes with the dems as often as the conservatives. He’s screwed up everything he touches...CFR, amnesty, cap& trade and on and on.
WE need some integrity and getting rid of John McCain is a good start. He’s doing more harm to Palin than the left is.
If we don’t discard those who don’t follow a conservative philosophy, what is there left to distinguish us from the democrats.

A. Please explain in detail exactly why you believe this.
B. Are saying that obama is a shoe-in if Palin continues her current road of "show me the money" instead of tossing her hat into the ring?
I think we and she both need to politely step to the side—and move on.
“I may have missed it but I have not seen her own words on why she’s supporting a man who detests conservatives.”
She has said she ‘respects him’ and his policies. Maybe she just agrees with him. It’s difficult to know, and she’s not helping.
“Sarah Palin is NOT our only hope.”
Oh really? Then please explain to me, which other current potential candidate today has the charisma, popularity, fund-raising ability, accomplishments and star-power that Sarah Palin does?
Mitt Romney? ROMNEYCARE, among many other problems
Tim Pawlenty? Good, but not well-known, into E85 and a bit wishy-washy
Mike Huckabee? Social conservative but economic liberal
Paul Ryan? Good, but voted for TARP and the auto bailouts
Newt Gingrich? NY-23 and Scuzzy
Do ANY of the ones I just listed come anywhere close to the qualities that Sarah Palin has?
I DON’T THINK SO!!!!!!!!
She CANNOT be knocked because of ONE endorsement! She’s got the ability to bring America out of the darkness and stop the evil of the Obama regime!
You know what?
I support Sarah Palin...I paid to see her. I send her money.
I am crazy about her.
And guess what?
I see some of the same jerks here today running in their little pack like they do chastizing anyone for criticizing Sarah Palin for McCain or anything else THE EXACT SAME WAY THEY RODE HERD HERE OVER ANYONE WHO DARED CRITICIZE BUSH OVER AMNESTY....now tell me now 4 years later who had that right?
You folks make me sick with your little cliques here...like High School girls. I pray you don’t get the power here again they had before when they all ran off chasing Ivan’s siren call.
I agree that rabs and bobj are over the top in their vitriol for Sarah....no doubt about that
But you know what?
She better learn to deal with the heat.
I wish she would back off McCain too...he is no pal of ours’...and she dirties herself ...once woulda been enough.
Needs more caps-lock.
Are you saying we should squelch our right to question her intentions and reasoning (or lack thereof) or voice our concern and just simply accept her appeasement of McLoser who epitomizes what’s wrong with the GOP? Sorry, I disagree. That’s exactly what has gotten us in this RINO infested mess we find ourself in right now.
I read Sarah's book; I'm a fan of hers. I am not a fan of McCain being in politics.
The rising star, in my opinion, is Michele Bachmann. Sarah is placing herself as second fiddle.
“If we don’t discard those who don’t follow a conservative philosophy, what is there left to distinguish us from the democrats.”
Good question!
AGREED!!!
I agree and YOU DON”T HAVE TO YELL AT ME!!!!!! ,-)
I disagree. The bigger the primary battle, the better.
We get a battle hardened candidate that is ready for Obama.
We get unity when it is over.
Issues are aired.
The public tunes out minor issues that could have been brought up fresh in a general campaign.
If Sarah can’t take the heat, she shouldn’t be in the race.
I think she can take it just fine. And she should.
ampu
Are you a Romney guy?
Actually she can, is and will be.
It is not obvious to me that Palin is the only one that can defeat whatshisname.
No indication Palin even wants the job.
Winning back the house and senate this November should be # one priority. If we can't do that all is lost.
There were a good number of RINO's in that 212. (You asked for a distinction--here's one).
