Lame Duck President - Sarah Palin

Now the President is outraged because the GOP House leadership called his bluff and ended discussions with him because they deemed him an obstruction to any real solution to the debt crisis.

He has been deemed a lame duck president. And he is angry now because he is being treated as such.

His foreign policy strategy has been described as “leading from behind.” Well, that’s his domestic policy strategy as well. Why should he be surprised that he’s been left behind in the negotiations when he’s been leading from behind on this debt crisis?

Thank you, GOP House leaders. Please don’t get wobbly on us now.

2012 can’t come soon enough.

She told Hannity the other day on his show that she supported Cut, Cap and Balance

Sarah speaks out!

Does anyone really doubt she’s the leader we need?

Mitt Romney had no comment.

RE :”Now the President is outraged because the GOP House leadership called his bluff and ended discussions with him because they deemed him an obstruction to any real solution to the debt crisis. He has been deemed a lame duck president. And he is angry now because he is being treated as such.:

I dont think so. Every act, every line, every statement in Obama’s phony negotiations has been part of his Obama2012 re-election campaign. Obama has created a fictional narrative/visual to the voter (who is not paying close attention) that he was willing to take political hits for getting his party (Democrats) to bite the bullet on trillions of dollars in spending cuts including entitlements in the ‘name’ of deficit reduction, cuts he could NEVER deliver and wont have to, and then further falsely claiming that he really didnt even ask the Republicans to raise taxes very much. He has been playing this act for weeks, why???

His original position was to demand a debt limit increase (that lasts past his re-election) with no strings attached. His plan was to drive down Republicans approval in polls over 'the negotiations' so that they in the end offer him what he originally demanded, the McConnel bill which is a clean debt limit increase. Then he will sign it and complain ala Obama 2012 how disappointed he is that he couldn't get that ‘big deal’ in deficit reduction, because Republicans just said ‘No-No-No’ (while the Democrats never agreed to anything) and so he was FORCED to accept a debt limit increase with no deficit reduction, no spending cuts and not even raising taxes. It is not over yet, Republicans have not yet caved, but this appears where this is headed.

Right now Democrats (especially Obama ) care about one thing, winning in 2012 to expand their agenda in 2013 starting with repeal DOMA. And do Republicans even want to win in 2012??

” Seriously, I have found her writing to be more precise than her speaking. “ <<<<

That’s even more curious. The body of the Palin commentary above was not above the pay grade of anyone here, to be able tear a page out of the news and add, “This is the president who....”, in front of each news fact. The “lame duck” thing though was interesting, I hand you that.

You are so full of shit I’d be surprised if you can see 3ft in front of you.

Palin does not and has not spoke only in platitudes, as is clear to anyone who can read above a third grade level.

I am pretty sure Palin wrote this. A) It sounds like her. B) She has a degree in journalism , that is why she writes as much as she does and does it well. Even her emails that were released were highly rated by english experts.

Well, now that Rasmussen’s latest has Ron Paul within 4 points of Mr. AssWipe (really), I think it’s safe to say the only inelectability to talk about is with the current dumbass in the WH.

Go Sarah!

Right away I noticed this reply on the Facebook page, and it says a lot.

We can only hope that she is just waiting....waiting. If she doesn't run, talk like this will become cheap and she'll be hearing it from both sides.

Well, I could have written something pretty close to it; however, you never could! I've read your posts, I know how you write, and you aren't capable of writing anything as cogent and well thought out; especially on your own.

Go away and stop trolling!

I hope you saw that wasn’t her entire post. Don’t be so quick to trash her. Green really isn’t your color.

As usual, she’s bold and gets to the meat of the issue.
I especially love the ‘lame duck’ seed that she planted. That will be food for thought for some and a good talking point. It will permeate the subconcious. ;^)

You are so wrong on this. She has usually come back in a couple of hours on everything he has ever said and done. And her commentary has always been incisive. I learned a lot about the BP oil spill crisis, ‘oil subsidies’, QE2, etc. from her talking about it. And it was in pursuit of that education that I signed up on Facebook.

You have either been unfair to her or have let yourself been told what to think of her by the likes of Charles Krauthammer & Co..

Yes. Her own proposal is to NOT raise the debt limit and live within our means.
