Palin: “Government Is The Problem, Doggone It!”
CBS ^ | Scott Conroy

(NEW PORT RICHEY, FLA.) - Sarah Palin pressed her argument that Barack Obama would move the country in a dramatically leftward direction.

“Our opponent’s plan is just for more bigger government, and doggone it, government is the problem, not the solution,” Palin said at a rally here.

“So, John and I, we just have the complete opposite approach in all of this, the opposite commitment which is so much better. Instead of taking more of your hard-earned money and then spreading that out according to a politician’s priorities, we’re gonna spread opportunity so you can create new wealth. That’s equal opportunity.”

Palin accused Obama of trying to “exploit the fear and worries” of senior citizens in Florida who are concerned about maintaining their Social Security and Medicare benefits, calling it “the oldest and cheapest kind of politics there is.”

Later in the speech, she warned that Obama did not believe in gun rights, a charge the Democratic nominee has repeatedly denied.

“We believe in the forward movement of freedom, not in the constant expansion of government, and we believe that the virtues of freedom are still worth fighting for,” Palin said. “And though Barack Obama disagrees with some of that freedom, it includes the full rights and liberties under the 2nd Amendment.”

Alright, alright, alright! That's conservatism. McCain can never say it. But Sarah can!

Everytime the scum opens his mouth and says that he supports gun rights, he telling the biggest lie he tells. He has never supported gun rights. THIS IS A LIE to get those votes in states where hunting and guns are big stuff, and are normally dim states. He does not want those people leaving because of his lying stance on guns.

Dodd: "Barney, the government and the bailout in particular has certainly benefitted us and our families.
By the use of kickbacks, payoffs, contributions, and NO ACCOUNTABILITY, we are now rich beyond our wildest dreams."

But a fact that the NRA has refuted, and that the See B.S. "news" organization has refused to detail.

"Sarah Palin .... shone through like a supernova last night. ...
She crushed Biden last night. Nobody will remember Joe Biden 20 years from now.
Nobody will ever forget Sarah Palin, they just don't realize it yet.
Sarah Palin will be the first woman President of the United States.
Children born decades from now will see her picture on our currency.
There will be statues, bridges, and airports named in her honor.
She will permeate the history books as a leader
who opened a new and vibrant chapter in American history."
- Bill Dupray
