The Lesson in the Betrayal of Sarah Palin
Daily Thought Pad ^ | January 28, 2013 | Ask Marion

Posted on 01/28/2013 3:15:11 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Recently on his radio show Rush Limbaugh discussed an article which stated that there is no respected voice in the national arena articulating Conservatism. Such an advocate for Conservatism is crucial to reversing the direction of America as Obama drives us toward socialism while low-info voters gleefully sing Kumbaya in the backseat.

Well excuse me for pointing out the obvious, but we had an extraordinary advocate for Conservatism and look what happened to her. Judas on our side betrayed her – sold her reputation for 30 seconds of fame and favor with the media.

Even now, folks on our side are still beating up on Sarah Palin saying – Palin has lost her appeal – Palin is unelectable – Palin wasn’t smart enough – Palin wasn’t prepared and etc. Really… Flashback: Media Reviews of Governor Palin’s 2008 RNC Speech and because of Sarah Palin, the McCain-Palin Ticket was leading until McCain decided to suspend his campaigning for a few days to go back to D.C. get involved in the bailout talks.

So, this is how we treat our heroes?!? Those that stand up?

Many Democrat Party politicians/advocates are immoral, liars and cheats. And yet, they are treated like super-stars by the media. Democrats have the backs of their associates, no matter what. For example: Democrats never rebuked Clinton for receiving oral sex from an intern in the Oval Office. They simply launched a campaign claiming that any man in Clinton’s position would have reacted like him. Think about that folks, Democrats and the media lowered the standard of national leadership behavior, and the overall national moral standard, to cover their guy...

Sarah Palin has served a very useful purpose (and she will continue to do so).

She showed enough people what useless prigs Republicans are. We have a clear path ahead now that we all know what Republicans are by the standard of how they treated her.

Useful information for the rest of us if we will just use it.

Thanks Sarah Palin.

I’ve heard many on this forum claim that Sarah is damaged goods and can never regain the respect of the country at large. If this is true, conservatism and a constitutional republic will never be restored, regardless of your opinions of her.

WHOAH!! Someone has his panties in a wad!!

Now back to the topic at hand.

Sarah Palin had the unfortunate quality of being what most conservative women are and you see how the libturds treated her.

Since they couldn't directly attack conservative women as a whole, they went after Sarah as if they were robotic wolves on steroids.

What is really sad though, is that conservative men did not stand up en masse and defend her.

Sarah doesn’t need to win an election. She just needs to come back on the scene and open up with both barrels. Tell the truth about the corrupt media and the effete elites who are attempting to take over this country. No one can motivate Conservatives right now better than she can. We are completely fed up and disgusted with the GOP establishment. They are the enemy right now and they know it. Primary them all.

Just don’t excerpt. Some folks take that in a bad way.

And your real name is "Some Folks".

IMO, Sarah's path back to relevance would be running for the AK Senate seat in 2014 currently held by a 'Rat. She obviously still has a lot of goodwill among movement conservatives, and should easily be able to put that seat back in GOP hands where it belongs.

Great article! Much truth to it. I can think of nobody that the liberals have attacked so relentlessly. The truly sad part was the RINOs that piled on like hyenas when they smell blood. Sarah is a true conservative that can connect with America. The left fears her, hence the need to try to destroy her.

True. Women as well.

Breitbart called the men who did not defend her eunuchs, and he was right. I think he should have included the women, I see a lot here who said nothing as she was ravaged by the left.

He did not mention those on the right who actually attacked her (see: humblegunner or FR), and fell in line with the libs. For them there is a special circle set aside somewhere for their misery.

Excellent links at the host page and an excellent article. I'm saving!

"Andrew Breitbart embraced the Governor as a fellow warrior in the long struggle against a detached and venal political/media complex. He lives on in spirit and through the work of those he inspired—including, but not limited to, those who report and contribute at his site."

As I was reading this aloud to Mrs. RQSR I realized I’d read this before. I was confused until I noted Rush Limbaugh’s name, but then became confused again as it morphed into some of our good FReepin’ FRiend Lloyd Marcus works.

The words, the thoughts all well said by two of the best IMO, but this site seems to neglect clearly identifying their sources appropriately.

Thank You Onyx my dear, the article was quite good but I typically don't ping to Blog Posts.

But the FReeper's on the list demanded it so I complied.

I don't want to abuse my Pinging Privileges.

I don’t idolize Sarah Palin, but I see her as one of very few people (unfortunately) with both popular appeal and conservative ideology. Who else speaks for us on at the national level? Darn few I say. Too many Republican politicians are working against us conservatives. We already know the Democrats despise us, but the Republicans are worse. They claim to be our friends, but they are constantly working behind the scenes to undermine everything we believe in. Sarah Palin is unfortunately one of only a handful of people on the national scene that I trust.
