Palin: Obama's Talk “Doesn’t Sound Like The Politics Of Hope”
CBS News ^ | September 18, 2008 | Scott Conroy

(GREEN BAY, Wisc.) As she continues to sharpen her attacks against her Democratic rivals, Sarah Palin accused Barack Obama of not abiding by his campaign’s own mantra.

"Now earlier today our opponent told his supporters to go out and argue with those who disagree with him,” Palin said. “He told them to get in your face, and you know, that doesn't sound like the politics of hope or the politics of change to me.”

At a campaign event in Elko, Nevada, on Wednesday, Obama did incite his supporters to argue with people who question his commitment to protecting the Second Amendment.

“I need ya to go out and talk to your friends, and talk to your neighbors,” Obama said. “I want you to talk to ‘em whether they are independent or whether they are Republican. I want you argue with them, and get in their face, and if they tell ya, ‘Well, we’re not sure where he stands on guns,’ I want you to say, ‘He believes in the Second Amendment.’”

Palin also hammered Obama for his lack of executive experience, while at the same time touting her own understanding of energy policy, which she says she developed as governor of Alaska.

“Our opponent says he wants to help Americans who are struggling with high energy costs,” Palin said. “But time and time again, he’s sided with special interests and come out against solutions that would help Americans heat their homes and fuel up their tanks and pay their energy bills. And maybe if he’d been the governor of an energy-rich state, he’d get it.”

Don't forget the phrase “Common Sense Gun Control”.

If Obami the Commie gets in, that is all you will hear until they push through the Legislation banning whatever they think is an Assault Weapon.

The question always remains, whose common sense?

Remember, this is a Harvard guy ..

A "quota" Harvard guy. And he attended Occidental in Los Angeles for his first year or so, then got an EO gig at Columbia before going on to Harvard law on the quota system. Occidental is where he decided to change to Barak from Barry. And where he first got involved in Marxist politics. He was involved in, among other things, the "South African Divestiture program, which in the end didn't work out too well for the people of that country, whatever their skin color.

What Obama wants is a confrontation, without video, which ends in violence.

So be sure to have your cell phone, or other video camera as well as your handgun with you.

The only “common sense gun control” that I know of is to take guns away from criminals. To my knowledge, that’s already in the books. I’d love to see the improvement that the left has to offer that doesn’t impinge on honest law abiders who want to protect their property and loved ones from the criminals who flaut exisiting laws...because they’re criminals. Why is this such a difficult concept???

AGREED. Does anybody ever wonder why Gun Violence hasn't jumped since the Assault Weapons Ban expired?

I know, it's above the Drive By Media's Pay Grade.

Actually, the answer to the question does not fit their agenda. Therefore, the question is never asked or answered.

Very scary tactics.

That's what they are counting on. They are bullies. When you don't back down, they don't know what to do next. Be prepared.

-- Thomas Jefferson

IIRC, President Jefferson thought that would happen every 20 - 30 years. Maybe we are overdue?

It sounds like Miss Sarah is just getting started with the Kick A$$ and take names phase of her campaign.
