VP Candidate Palin: Corruption Addicted To OPM

Sarah Palin did very well tonight in the Sean Hannity interview (and the bitter liberal response hosted by sour puss Alan Colmes was a disaster). My absolutely most favorite line was when Sarah said too many people are “addicted to OPM: Other People’s Money”.

In one catch all phrase she distilled down the anger and frustration America has with both Wall Street and Washington (and by extension the broader Political Industrial Community of media, political consultants, lobbyists and politicians).

She hit it out of the park! Colmes looked befuddled.

“If Congress does not act, American taxpayers will continue to be exposed to the enormous risk that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac pose to the housing market, the overall financial system, and the economy as a whole. I urge my colleagues to support swift action on this GSE reform legislation.”

Senator John McCain

“but the criticism of Hannity going easy will be ringing down in the AM.”

Hey turnabout is fair play. That is exactly what the msm does when interviewing a RAT. Perfect example is the Gibson interview on the then RAT VP nominee Edwards. Softball after softball.

She said: “OPIUM. OPM. Other People’s Money”

Leaving out the “Opium” part is to water it down/

"Sarah Palin did very well tonight in the Sean Hannity interview (and the bitter liberal response hosted by sour puss Alan Colmes was a disaster)."

Alan Colmbes makes an A$$ out of himself frantically throwing in the RAT talking points. He is truly a nasty liberal & proud of it.

A couple of days ago - they replaced his radio show in our area with Laura Ingraham.

Back to Sarah - she did great. Sean did a good interview & touched on some important things.

BTW, I like her hair up instead of her wearing it loose. She's a beauty either way - but it's just my choice.

agreed - the most interesting is to compare Gibson’s first interview with Obama to his first interview of Palin - the difference is unbelievable.

She has great instincts and just loads of common sense. The campaign should let the Barracuda explain what’s going here, and how to fix it.

When Estrich was on there pinch-hitting she lifted the entire show. The woman is alive, she engages with the interviewee, she spoke like a normal human being. Colmes just recites the party talking points, no matter how inaccurate and irrelevant, and you’d think you were watching a trained monkey. He drags down every show. His place is with all the other zombies on CNN.

I watched the local news this evening, and they led with Sarah. She took a question from a reporter at a restaurant, showed her at the Townhall, then with Hannity.

It was so nice to see our Sarah out there talking. She’s fantastic and can speak and connect to ordinary people in a way McCain cannot. I have come to believe it was a big mistake to keep her sequestered while the Dems unleashed unanswered vicious attacks.

She makes so much sense.

I was just over at the Washington Post and from the comments you’d think it was the Daily Kos - they have all their smears of Sarah ready to go. It’s disgusting and the implications are frightening.

See my tag line.

Look at the difference at the way the hags at The View treated Obama and then McCain. What a bunch of witches.

Did you hear Rove tell him he was embarrassing himself? I thought that was funny because he sounded just like a middle-schooler trying to justify something he'd done wrong.

The sour puss expression on Colmes face was fear. Sarah was excellent, and the libs are fuming. I thought Hannity did a fair job of correcting the distortions that Colmes and the Dem hack were trying to paint against McCains campaign staff. We need to keep nailing them on the Dems involvement in the Freddy's Fanny debacle and not allow them to paint it as a Bush scandal.
