Perhaps we should no longer be surprised when the former half-term Alaska governor jabs at GOP colleagues weighs in on public policy. And yet...
It's easy and tiresome to trash Sarah Palin as an uneducated embarrassment to the Republican Party (a party of which I am a member). But when the great anti-intellectual takes ridiculously simple-minded shots at Marco Rubio for supporting immigration reform, something needs to be said.
The Sunshine State News asked the former Alaska governor to comment on immigration reform. She took the opportunity to take a giant swing at Marco Rubio:
Just like they did with ObamaCare, some in Congress intend to "Pelosi" the amnesty bill. They'll pass it in order to find out what's in it. And just like the unpopular, unaffordable ObamaCare disaster, this pandering, rewarding-the-rule-breakers, still-no-border-security, special-interests-ridden, 24-pound disaster of a bill is not supported by informed Americans. [Sunshine State News] Let's take this particular pearl of vapid nonsense sentence by sentence. Right off the bat, Palin manages to set forth two incompatible premises in the same sentence. Her reference to "some in Congress" is clearly a shot at the Republicans looking to push the bill through, the most prominent being a young Tea Party star named Marco Rubio. Yet in taking that shot, Palin makes clear that immigration reform is not at all like ObamaCare in that ObamaCare was defined by the complete and total absence of bipartisan compromise, even during the negotiation phase. Immigration reform was heavily shaped by Republicans and is going to pass (assuming it passes) with multiple Republican votes.
Palin then claims that immigration reform is like ObamaCare because it is expensive. CBO actually disagrees with Palin on this particular point....

YOU'RE RIGHT!!!
The problem with Obamacare was not that it was bi-partisan. It was simply terrible policy. It was also hacked together to ram through the Senate instead of worked out to make the law reform the system. The goal was never to fix anything, just like this amnesty does not aim to address the key problems. Because Rubio abandoned his voters and joined on to a Democratic wish list does not make this bi-partisan.
Can I kick him in the balls like a fairy?
Hahahaha!!!
(1) Is he through puberty yet?
(2) "FrumForum"? Is he aware that David Frum is 100% against the amnesty bill?
When his first sentence rounds 32 months down to 24, you have a pretty good clue as to the integrity of the writing.

Looking at the byline in the picture, I got the impression this boy was lighting cars on fire in LA.
You’re assuming the kid has a pair.....I’m not so sure.
Obamacare required the stealing of two seats to get the 60 Democrat senators necessary to pass it (Al Franken’s seat and the changing of the laws in Massachusetts after Ted Kennedy’s death to permit the governor to appoint his Democrat replacement).
Additionally it required the buying off of other Democrat Senators with kickbacks.
And promises about what it would or would not do were lies.
The only way to prevent something is to include it in the language of the bill as being prohibited.
We are on the same page FRiend. :)
Perhaps we should no longer be surprised when the former half-term Alaska governor jabs at GOP colleagues and? or? by weighing in on?weighs in on public policy.
Sheesh...are guys like this the reason why we’re going to have to build special bathrooms everywhere now?
I think the poster is referring to Palin...
Hey, is that idiot about ten years old?
It's easy and tiresome to trash Sarah Palin as an uneducated embarrassment to the Republican Party (the second ridiculously simple-minded shot at Sarah Palin by the author)...(a party of which I am a member). But when the great anti-intellectual (the third ridiculously simple-minded shot at Sarah Palin by the author) takes ridiculously simple-minded shots (the fourth ridiculously simple-minded shot at Sarah Palin by the author) at Marco Rubio for supporting immigration reform, something needs to be said.
Dang, four ridiculously simple-minded shots at Sarah Palin by the author in two paragraphs, who's calling whom the simple-minded one here?
That’s Robbie from My Three Sons.
