I will vote for Sarah if she runs... Reagan disappointed me at times too... and he was the greatest!

Logically, Palin should be the GOP nominee. She’s already been vetted so there won’t be any surprises. Did you know that she gets daily briefings on the issues? Come 2012 she’ll be more than ready to run for President. Clowns like Barbour, Pawlenty, and Romney don’t have a chance and they don’t appeal to the conservative base.

Yes, besides her own reading and research,as you say, she has a staff both in DC and elsewhere who give her daily briefings,
She is serious

Ridiculous.

Sarah did what she was obligated to do. That simple. Personal promises mean something — even when you make them to a scoundrel. She acted with character and integrity, and her Conservative credentials should NOT be called into question. Doing so only hurts the whole of the Conservative movement...

“Again, they want an Obama 2nd term”

Know what? I’m sick of that lie. Because of the same kind of BS, MOST of us swallowed the bile and voted for McCain to stop Obama. Most of us worked our butts off doing it.
So stop it. We did your ‘benefit of the doubt’ nonsense already. Stop lying about freepers. We voted for McCain!
You’re not going to insult us in to defending McCain. You’ve got Palin for that. Live with it.

One of these days you’ll be patting the same people on the back when they agree with you on something else. It’s no wonder the GOP is such dysfunctional trash. You, like McCain, are perfectly willing to stab us instead of Obama or McCain.

Then he ran for the Senate, was elected and immediately got on the committee investigating the real possibility of many POWs left behind in N Vietnam, held by the NV for possible bargaining tools as NV wanted badly for trade relations with the US.

John McCain together with John F'n Kerry worked like hell to knock down any attempts to rescue them or even further investigation. Reports were delayed at crucial times, the families were stalled and discouraged, papers were sealed and investigators stymied. Hard to believe for a former POW!

Not to mention the nasty fits of his temper toward the families and the insults. Screaming and cursing, shoving old Sen Strom Thurmond...

But the investigation after years ended, not to be reopened. And the US signed trade agreements with Communist Vietnam.

It is a proud motto of the Marines: A Marine never leaves dead and wounded on the battlefield. It is the same for the other branches. Every effort should have been made to find out if any POWs remained there.

He was a prisoner for 6 yrs. an eternity--and long enough for the Communists to use their sophisticated indoctrination to impress the necessity for worldwide Communism on him.

My only question is, who is his control, the one who uses the queen of diamonds?

Do what I did and go to JD Hayworth’s site and donate if you can afford something.

McCain and Graham-nesty are evil and as bad as liberal democrats.

How is following the rules of law for a path to citizenship associated with amnesty?

Amnesty forgives law violations. I see no connection.

I understand dancing with the one who brought you to the party. It’s time to get sore feet. Forget the dance. Go J.D..

If McCain showed up as my XO I would have had him gone in about 30 days. He’s a big talker but a total pussy. I would never let him try to direct real warriors. Real warriors are already motivated, they don’t need some two bit cheese stick talking to them.

WORD!!!

former Governor Sarah Palin is playing 3-D chess; all other politicians are playing checkers.

Except that the survival of our Nation is not a game.

There is no conservative principle that says “Don’t campaign for your former running mate who is running on a conservative platform, if his opponent is more conservative during the off-season.”

Palin’s conservative record is unblemished.

Pimping for John juast show what she thinks of COnservatives.... not much.

We don't defend McCain, we defend Sarah Palin. She is under attack on FR but the rest of the nation sees her differently.

Photobucket

Tens of thousands..young and old...show up in the middle of the desert (and I do mean middle of the desert) to see her.

Her detractors on FR look silly and side with the libs.

There are many conservatives who have supported RINOs and are currently doing so.

I want to see your list of who you are withdrawing support for. Rubio, Hunter, Tancredo, DeMint, Ann Coulter, Bachmann, Hayworth, Arpaio?

As you see, this argument against Palin doesn’t work.

I would ask you to provide a list of all conservatives you used to think were conservative, but now you sometimes can’t make up your mind because they supported RINOs.

Nope. The fact that someone else does not have integrity does not mean you have the right not to display good character yourself.

You’ve never kept your promise to a person who disappointed you? Who let you down? Sarah is living out her Christian character. I think she is wise in this case (not that I like Juan!). It will, however, redound to her benefit. If nothing else, God will see from heaven and pour out His blessings on her. :-)
