Sarah Palin At High Noon

By Lloyd Marcus

I just watched the classic movie "High Noon" (again). Gary Cooper played a brave sheriff who brought law and order to his town. As one woman said, "He made it safe for a decent woman to walk down the street". A recently released outlaw was coming back to town on the noon train to deliver vengeance against the sheriff who put him away. His gang of three arrived early to help their leader take out the sheriff.

Fully aware of why the bad men were in town, the sheriff could not arrest them because they had not broken any laws. Waiting is not illegal.

Desperate, the sheriff interrupted a church service to solicit help. After much debate, the ungrateful town folks declined. They even suggested the sheriff "get out of town" hoping the trouble would follow him. The sheriff contemplated their recommendation. He began saddling his horse, but something inside would not allow him to run away. Heroically, the sheriff faced the bad guys and won!

I thought of another strong, gutsy, bold, stand-on-principles hero, Sarah Palin, in her own modern day version of High Noon. Sheriff Palin rode into America Town on a white horse with conservative guns blazing and saved a dead McCain campaign. She brought hope to weary and battered conservative town folks and gave them a reason to vote.

Outlaw Obama and his posse, the hate filled liberal media/Democrat gang, came to town a gunnin' to politically eliminate Sheriff Palin. They ambushed her at Miss Katie Couric's CBS saloon. Though wounded numerous times, Sheriff Palin survived.

She bravely stood tall and rode high in the saddle while ungrateful, weak kneed Republican town folks ran for cover, hid in their homes and peeked nervously through the curtains.

Why are Obama and his gang so committed and desperate to destroy Palin? Could it be they recognize her destiny, like that of Moses, to set her people free? And why is she so despised by them? Obama's gang hate Palin for all the reasons we love her. Sheriff Palin is a good, decent and strong character driven conservative leader. Palin also believes in God. Such humility and virtues are as repulsive to liberals as showing Dracula the cross.

Something that sticks in the craw of many liberal women is that in their youth, they brought into the feminist rhetoric that women's liberation means no husband and family. Tragically, they find themselves aging and alone. Meanwhile, this conservative woman has it all: great career, fine family and a husband who loves and respects her. Adding insult in injury, Sheriff Palin looks mighty fine in her jeans.

Recently, the libs sent an old washed up gunslinger, the Letterman Kid, to challenge Sheriff Palin to a shoot out. Palin planted two bullets between the pathetic old dude's wrinkly eyes before he could un-holster his gun.

Despite Sheriff Palin's courage and willingness to fight, Obama and his posse rule America Town. They are in the process of taking over everything! Obama took over the livery stable and banned horses. While he and his posse continue riding horses, we town folks are forced to ride miniature ponies.

But in the spirit of what has made America Town great, an uprising is a brewin'. A huge conservative posse is building daily. Our first battle will be in 2010 to win back America Town's House and Senate. Then, in 2012, God willing and the creek don't rise, Sheriff Palin will lead us to victory in the battle of Little Big Washington DC. Years earlier, another great lawman cleaned up America Town, Sheriff Ronald Reagan.

After Sheriff Palin sweeps out the Obama gang, perhaps once again, we will be as what Sheriff Reagan affectionately called us, "a shining city on a hill".

[counterpunch]

What good is a messenger without a message?
First the GOP needs to figure out what, if anything, it stands for anymore.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

The PalinChoir were formerly the HuckaBots.

Wrong! Most of us were firmly behind Duncan Hunter and/or Fred Thompson, just like the FR boss.

[counterpunch]

Both Hunter and Fred dropped out pretty early.
Most of you guys who weren’t already there made a pitstop at Huckabee before John McCain lead you to Sarah Palin.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

No, we didn't. Go back and check the Hunter/Thompson threads. Nearly all of us planned to sit out the election rather than vote for the Huckster, Romney, or McCain.

Your ill-informed generalities don't hold water.

[slowhandluke]

He recognizes that in the Hegelian Dialectic, if one side offers a thesis, and the other side refuses to offer an antithesis, then there is no synthesis, instead the thesis takes all.

But that's not what I saw Newt doing. He bought into the AGW nonsense thesis, and offered a synthesis of AGW + slightly less spending, and maybe a slightly different set of profiteers.

The Scrooge approach to doing what the left wants to do hasn't been much of a winner, witness NCLB or how limiting spending growth in education got hammered as cutting education spending.

[slowhandluke]

Mondale vs. Reagan

Mondale was a VP for 4 years, not just a VP candidate. He had a record to run on, his and Carters. And his campaign promised more of the same.

If Sarah Palin ran on the platforms or records of McLame or GWB, you might have a point. But she would also not be the candidate if she did. So, you don't have a point.

[ejonesie22]

Ya think...

[ejonesie22]

Now that is funny...

And with a free does of Irony as well...

You’re fun...

[Snurple]

Mitt does have nice hair.

[counterpunch]

Yes, almost as nice as Sarah Palin’s legs.

[Arthur McGowan]

That sentence wasn’t the tiniest bit ungrammatical. It meanders a bit, but it’s not the least bit ungrammatical.

When Sarah talks like that, I feel she’s trying to soften things a bit. I would prefer that she say “despots,” “tyrants,” or “thuggish criminals,” rather than “people who don’t have America’s best interests at heart.”

[Diogenesis]

RomneyBOT on antiPalin HatePATROL:
"Yes, almost as nice as Sarah Palin’s legs."

Backstabber, shape-shifter Mitt ("Promise them anything") Romney:
"You, my slaves, servants, and subjects shall embrace
the coming attacks on Gov. Palin, on her children, on Gov. Jindal
and the other GOP governors as we expose scandal after scandal.
Create, then support, our attacks from our northern lands,
from our bought media, and from our plants within the Obama team.
I will gain GOP favor by condemning the attacks and
ordering it opposed from our lands in the south.
Whichever way the tide runs, only I will be left standing. "

[counterpunch]

You HuckaBots really need to get past 2008.

[ejonesie22]

If you weren't always so wrong you might be correct...

Very few of us were "HuckaBots" and this isn't about 2008, it is about Mitt's return in 2012, and the orchestrated attempt by his team and other RINOs to clear the field of competition.

Oh, and the using the whole bots bit well after it had already been used for you Mitt guys many moons ago, it goes past being unoriginal and rapidly descended to desperate...

But keep swinging...

Tick tick tick...

[Snurple]

Sarah does have a fine set of legs also fine character and a fine chance of becoming the first female president. Fine all the way around. Mitt on the other hand is a typical greasy politician who couldn’t get elected dog catcher outside of his home state.

[Diogenesis]

Romney, utterly corrupt like the others.

"Top 20 Recipients of AIG Contributions in 2008"

[Diogenesis]

Romney is a such a "HORSES' ASS" compared to Gov. Palin.

And did you see how Romney claimed to be a Governor on talk shows? What a liar.

Mr. Romney "Disses" Amateur Radio In Televised Town Meeting

Gov. Sarah Palin, Governor of the state of Alaska, proclaimed the week of July 28 through August 3, 2008 as: Amateur Radio Week

"Mitt Romney...alienating America one group at a time."

[Diogenesis]

Gov. Palin has more class in her little finger than
the entire RINO Team Romney has shown in decades.

[Randy Larsen]

Gunner, dude you just hit the nail squarely on the head!!!

Give me a REAL straight talker over a smooth talker any day!

Nicely Done!

[Randy Larsen]

McCain picked her...We chose her over McCain knowing we would lose!

McCain is the loser, Not Sarah Palin!
