Palin on Obama Speech: 'I Liked What He Said' ["Sounded Familiar" To Her Book!]

December 10, 2009 Palin on Obama Speech: 'I Liked What He Said' December 10th

From CNN Associate Producer Martina Stewart

(CNN) – Sarah Palin had some rare praise Thursday for President Obama after the president delivered his Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech in Oslo. But the former Republican vice presidential nominee added that she would like to see the president act more like his predecessor, George W. Bush.

"I liked what he said," Palin told USAToday in an interview after the speech.

Palin said the president's remarks had a familiar ring. "I thumbed through my book quickly this morning to say 'Wow! That really sounded familiar.' because I talked in book too about the fallen nature of man and why war is necessary at times."

But Palin suggested Obama could learn a few things from former President Bush.

"We have to stop those terrorists over there," she told the paper. "We've learned our lesson from 9/11. George Bush did a great job of reminding Americans every single day that he was in office what that lesson is. And, by the way, I'd like to see President Obama follow more closely in the footsteps of George Bush and [Bush's] passion keeping the homeland safe, his passion for respecting – honoring our troops."

Palin is the second prominent Republican to praise Obama's speech accepting the Nobel Prize, after former House Speaker Newt Gingrich called it "very good."

There’s more Palin in one of her books or speeches than there is Obama in one of his books or speeches.

And she’s the only one with a public voice who’s really cutting him no slack. Go, Sarah!

Saying that you agree with some parts of what someone’s says in a speech is hardly “praising”!

I agree with some of the contents he made, but I also know that the bastard doesn’t believe in a single word he said. I also know that regardless of what he says, his true plans and intentions are far away from his words... and have nothing to do with anything good for America.

Here’s a simple test. Do you think that President Reagan would believe a single word coming from that vile Socialists mouth?

When you believe a liar, you have been fooled.

When you believe an habitual liar that you know to be a liar, you ARE a fool.

The best liars are those that mix threads of truth within their lies.

Obama deserves no quarter, period.

Anyway, I do not accept that Palin was “praising” his speech, instead, she is being very clever—very calculated. She insulted Obama, locked him into a corner, and in a very intelligent fashion.

Dear God, please help Palin become our country’s leader.

Palin 2012...

TRUE STORY ABOUT HUSSEIN'S SPEECH TODAY:

Liberal Hussein buttkisser friend of mine asked if I'd heard the speech.

"Nope. I avoid him," I said.

"He basically told the people there war is needed. I think the crowd was quite surprised."

I responded: "Yeah, I think he is surprising a lot of people by what he is doing..."

She knew what I meant: he is an idiot, and people aren't happy. But her response was something like, "Well, it was a lot tougher than we thought it would be..."

I just laughed and went about my business.

She is soooooooooooo close to buyer's remorse. Maybe already has it, but won't admit it to me.

Rush had an excellent critique of the Hoaxster’s speech yesterday.
