Why we still heart Sarah Palin -- "Sarah Marches On..."

The Daily Telegraph ^ | July 18, 2011 | James Delingpole

[Cincinatus' Wife]

There’s a narrative about Sarah Palin that goes something like this: until the Arizona shootings she coulda been a contender. But then with her ill-judged reference to a “blood libel” she lost it, whereas the mighty President Obama only added to his stature with a temperate, thoughtful speech which united America behind him. Bye bye Sarah Palin.

Yeah, right.

No one is saying Sarah Palin doesn’t make the odd gaffe. But no matter how many gaffes she makes – and this won’t be the last – it isn’t going to alter the fact that President Obama is a socialist and his administration a crazy house of eco-loons, crypto-Marxists, progressives, collectivists, surrender monkeys and anarcho-lesbian harpies. Nor that Sarah Palin remains the figurehead for the counter-revolution.

As exhibit a, I present the above moving, exquisitely tasteful tribute song, currently going viral on the internet. It doesn’t matter who Sarah Palin is any more. It’s what she stands for: liberty, small government, the Tea Party. It’ll take more than a few liberal smears to trample values as powerful as that.

Altogether now: “She’s not a Harvard lawyer but she knew what the Founders meant…”

Video and a lot of great comments at Delingpole's blog.

What Gaffe????

Thanks for posting! This UK blogger is worth one hundred of our bloviating US pundits on any given day.

He gets it! Sarah is here to stay and on a path to 2012! :)

I couldn’t have said it better myself~!

But no matter how many gaffes she the media makes for her.

There fixed it.

[DTogo]

Indeed, where's the "gaffe??"

Was she handing out "Blood Libel" souvenier t-shirts?

Did she have an eskimo invoke a 10 minute rambling of nature/spiritual mumbo-jumbo?

Was anyone whooping and hollering in the background?

[Cincinatus' Wife]

I believe Delingpole sees she’s human and that the people who love her are too.

The opposite of elites, pseudo scientists, pseudo intellectuals and pseudo Americans.

[Cicero]

Yes. What gaffe? Her speech was pitch perfect. And Obama’s performance was abysmal. Even the TV watchers seem to have gotten that much, since his stats weren’t helped one bit by that T-shirt rally he performed at.

Anyway, Delingpole more than makes up for his gaffe comment with his characterization of Obama’s administration: “a crazy house of eco-loons, crypto-Marxists, progressives, collectivists, surrender monkeys and anarcho-lesbian harpies.”

And he ties it all up with this:

"It doesn’t matter who Sarah Palin is any more. It’s what she stands for: liberty, small government, the Tea Party. It’ll take more than a few liberal smears to trample values as powerful as that."

'Blood libel" was not a 'gaffe' of any sort. It was the plain and simple truth.

[facedown]

...his administration a crazy house of eco-loons, crypto-Marxists, progressives, collectivists, surrender monkeys and anarcho-lesbian harpies.

Not to mention self-serving kleptocrats.

Yet another example in which the Brit media “get it,” while ours...

.. doesn’t.

What I LOVE about My Sara:
1. She is pretty.
2. She could care less about hurting the fellings of someone on the left. She won't do it on purpose, but she won't change becsue some lefty get his or her feeling hurt.
3. She is Qualified, Hey she is 10 times more qualified than the community organizer.
4. Liberals HATE her. Good enpugh for me to LOVE Her. She is doing something right if the left HATES Her.

SARAH PALIN'S PING LIST

What Gaffe????

Only the liberal media consider it a gaffe.

[Wonder Warthog]

Well, personally, I don’t consider Palin’s “blood libel” comment a “gaffe”, but an accurate and precise description of what was attempted......a libelous accusation concerning the shed blood of innocents.

They had an Eskimo do what??? Really??? Was that like a slap in Sarah’s families face? Sheesh these people have no common sense or sense of decency at all.
