Yeah, just like the same social views hurt Reagan in 1980 and 1984, Bush in 1988, Bush in 2000 and 2004.

Every election cycle, we are lectured by the Left that these “social views” will hurt the ticket.

And every election cyle they are proven wrong.

I had dinner last night with someone who thinks she saw Elvis working at a 7-11 near Lawrenceberg, Kentucky.

But all she could now see was that picture of Palin’s pregnant 17-year-old looking defiant and stupid as she held mom’s fifth baby.”

What is a Froma Harrop and why does such a pathetic, miserable creature want to bore us with her inane rantings?

Stevie, give the bitter case of PDS you are afflicted with, last night's speech must have been really painful to watch.

Here's a thought ,,

More leftist puke.

Palin’s social views are America’s social views; the only ticket they hurt is the Dummacrap ticket.

hiya steve-b...ltns

I haven't posted much on my favorite forum it seems in a long time.

Anyway, there's a lot of reasons why I cancelled my subscription to the Providence Journal many years ago...and Froma Harrop is near the top of that list. Extremely biased far left hypocrit. ‘Nuf said!

I’m voting for McCain cause Palin’s daughter is pregnant? When did that happen? How come all the other conservatives get the memo and I don’t?

I think I would barf if I had that conversation.

.

Here’s how I’ve been bumping Palin/Obama threads.

Sung to the tune of “Oh! Susanna, don’t you cry for me.”

“Oh, no Bama, please don’t lie to me... for I’m off to Free Republic with a laptop on my knee.”

I come from Minnesota with my laptop on my knee;
I’m goin’ to Free Republic my true love for to see.
It rained all night the day I left,
the weather it was dry;
The sun so hot I froze to death,
Obama don’t you lie.

Oh! No Bama, don’t you lie to me;
I come from Minnesota,
with my laptop on my knee.

I had a dream the other night,
When everything was still;
I thought I saw Obama dear,
A-coming for The Hill.
The smearing lie was in Duluth,
The tear was in his eye,
Said I, I’m coming for the truth
Obama don’t you lie.

Oh! No Bama, don’t you lie to me;
I’m off to Free Republic,
with my laptop on my knee.

I fight in my pajamas,
It’s plain for all to see.
I aim to be the next Buckhead;
The media all hate me.
I fell in love with Sarah
When my sister bit a moose.
The Guvnor’s family ate it up
And then they set it loose.

Oh! No Bama, don’t you lie to me;
I’m off to Free Republic,
with my laptop on my knee.

She loves her sons, she likes her guns,
and Trigonometry.
The media will jump the shark
When Juan makes history.
Well, JimRob knows she’ll pave the trolls
So controversially,
And Berg will knock Obama down
With friends of Hillary.

Oh! No Bama, don’t you lie to me;
I’m off to Free Republic with a laptop on my knee.

I soon will be in Hawaii,
And then I’ll look all ‘round,
And when I find his birth record,
I’ll fall upon the ground.
But if I do not find it,
This Freeper’ll surely die,
And when I’m dead and buried,
Obama don’t you lie.

Oh! No Bama, don’t you cry for me;
I’m off to Free Republic with a laptop on my knee

Anybody that gripes about this obviously has never raised a teenager in this century. I think most of them are lucky to survive with all their limbs to get married.

By the grace of God I was spared. This is the "socialization" that the home schoolers miss.

"Don't they have birth control up in Alaska?" she asked....

Birth control only works when you use it, and even then, not always. Two of my bro-in-law's five kids are condom babies.

I apologize for the generalization. I have nothing against Romney, would have supported him on the ticket.

Peace? ;)

To accept Froma’s “logic”, we must assume that:

1) No one who is unmarried EVER has sex. You are a psychological deviant if you do;

2) Electing to keep the child of a premarital sexual relationship (rather than have an abortion) is a social view that will “hurt the ticket”;

3) Ditto marrying the father;

4) You are a cretin who deserves no forgiveness, ever, if you make a mistake. In fact, you are defiant and stupid for even trying to support your mother during her internationally-televised speech at the Republican National Convention. Go get back in your cage.

As I read this article, I couldn’t help thinking of Dan Aykroyd on Saturday Night Live “Point/Counter-point” chiding Jane Curtain with “Jane, you ignorant slut.”

If advising McCain I would have told him to pick Romney, I now note Romney’s speech sucked. I still like him but it was flat.

I probably would not have picked Palin but the day they started saying it was her there was an emotional “Mrs Smith Goes To Washington” reaction. There still is.
