Release of Palin Emails: A Blessing in Disguise

CondoleezzaProtege

[CondoleezzaProtege]

One verse Palin hearkens back to quite often in interviews is Genesis 50:20, which she paraphrases as "What the enemy intends for evil, GOD intends for good."

"But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good." ~ Genesis 50:20 (NKJV)

I already see many blessings in disguise amidst the onslaught of attacks the Governor has faced these past few weeks.

With THIS particular attack, I figure hey: these emails will enlighten clueless Americans to the reality that *gasp* Palin was a real-life governor! She had a job! She accomplished things, she knew top secret information, she dealt with important, powerful people on a daily basis, she led and ran a large state with complex issues. She is a smart and savvy woman with executive gravitas, the kind becoming of a person seeking the highest office in the land.

So in other words, it's HEALTHY that even if it's so-called "negative" publicity, the MORE publicity there is surrounding Palin's governorship rather than say, Levi Johnston's latest debacle, is a GOOD THING. It's promoting and perpetuating a narrative painting Palin as a SERIOUS politician.

While every liberal is at this moment helplessly drawn into the exercise that they dread, reading, Congress should repeal Obama Care.

Enough! I've had it up to here with these not-so-thinly veiled attacks and outright smears on a PRIVATE CITIZEN. I say we DEMAND they call for the release of emails, tweets, etc. from alHussein the incompetent - repeated as necessary until it's done. Then lets all go through them with a fine tooth comb. Maybe we should get the Donald to lead the call.

(yes, I realize this is probably just a pipe dream, but it's my pipe dream and I'm going to dream it darn it!)

This is totally awesome.

Congress should repeal Obama Care.

Sadly we don't even have a simple majority in the Senate, let alone a veto-overriding margin.

[CondoleezzaProtege]

I understand and expect that as well actually, but even still, it’s proving the fact that Palin was indeed a GOVERNOR with an active political career — not the mere “illiterate fool” caricature mythology the media initially tried to perpetuate. Even whatever negative, sensational headlines will only help build up curiosity and publicity for her movie. :)

I know... but I want to see them do it anyway. As Rush said, make the advocates defend Obamacare and make them do it often.

[CondoleezzaProtege]

AND all this will help her going into the debates during primary season. She’ll have plenty of opportunities on the podium to tout, justify, and defend her record WITHOUT the filter of the media. :)

I am sure that the media’s next stop will be Chicago so as to go through all of Hussein Obama’s emails; particularly those between Hussein and Sharpton, Jackson, Farrahkan, Ayers, and Blagoavich.

Let’s not forget Rezko.

I replied to the wash post’s request for 100 reviewers. This is their response.

Hello from the Washington Post newsroom,

We have had a strong response to our initial call-out on the Palin e-mails. And as a result, we’ve decided to ask you and everyone else who responded to our initial call-out to post comments, questions, and information related to the e-mails directly to comment threads on The Fix: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-fix

Starting this afternoon, we’ll be posting digital versions of the Palin emails here: http://www.washingtonpost.com/palinemails

So, once they begin to appear, we invite you to:
1. Browse the emails.
2. Read what other users have posted about them in the comments of The Fix blog. Take note of what has already has been pointed out.

All of this stuff is a direct result of new tone jive. The pubbies are viewed as weak and they never fight back. This is a good lesson for conservative women. Never run as a republican. If you get jammed up you will be abandoned by the old farts that run that sinking ship. In many cases they will lead the attack.

It is my understanding that the festering, puss-oozing, hemorrhoids that released these emails left all the headers exposed?

If so, can you say “Spammer heaven?” I *knew* you could. (Forget the harassment from the lefty pustules on any recipients...)

[Mr. K]

I think we should compare all of Palin’s emails to all of Obama’s emails

Let’s ask if we can see them- Did you store all of those? Liberal media? hmm? hmm?

[RayChuang88]

Why do I have this feeling that the MSM won't find anything significant and there will be egg all over the faces of the MSM?

[JEH_Boston]

Yeah how great would it be for some of those diehard Palin haters poring over her emails to do a 180 and come out in support of her after being confronted with the evidence of her greatness.

Almost as if it were planned....
....Sarah, you magnificent angel!

‘_____come out in support of her______’

The 2 of you put into words what I’m also thinking - thanks!
