I like Sarah, and I’m sorry she did this. Hope everything works out for her...

A guy cannot express his opinion?

I suppose as long it agrees with your take on things it’s okay, right?


Not if he has the best interests of the GOP at heart and is not a RINO he won't.

Peter King just took sides today and anyone, in political office that does this this early in the game is trying to influence an outcome.

This is not the action of a conservative who has his party's best interest at heart.

This story is about Steven King from Iowa. Peter King is from New York.
Peter King was the one who was always sticking up for Clinton. I'm not even sure Steven King was around back then, was he?

Sorry, you’re right, I had the wrong King.

And we care why? Sarah has more integrity than King ever dreamed of.

“She sacrificed herself for something GREATER then self, that is something elitists just don’t get”

Well stated.

“(Oh yeah, another one was filed today, saying that she can’t live in her own house)”

Enough !! Time for retaliation on these worms.

Another Rhino one needs to mark of the ballot...nice pocketful of change he pro’bly got for that statement...

Just like La Hood got a nice Cabinet spot for trashing her during the campaigns...

These guys don’t knock members of their own party without benefitting from it.

This story was from Rep. Steve King of Iowa, not Peter King of NY.

And I wouldn't bury Peter King, either, just yet. He was the first public figure to have the guts to call Michael Jackson a pedophile today!

Staunch GOP conservative Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa)

http://steveking.house.gov/index.cfm?FuseAction=AboutSteve.Biography

King’s very first bill in Congress was an expansion of a tax credit to small ethanol and biodiesel producers.

.
Wonder if he’s bothered by ‘big oil’?

Staunch GOP conservative Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) doubts that Sarah Palin will be able to resurrect her political career after calling it quits as governor of Alaska.
Interesting since the Republicans who've managed to stay in office have done more harm to the party and the country than anything she could do by resigning.

Unlike all the experts(?) I don't pretend to know why she's resigning nor do I care. What I do know is she's not a quitter.

Another thread asked it best: If she never had a chance, why all the fuss?

"I hope there’s something brilliant behind this because she’s entirely capable of actually having a grand strategy that the rest of us don’t understand,” King said.

Not true at all...These people know exactly what Sarah Palin is pushing...It's just that they have a different agenda...

“I don’t know of anyone who has successfully and voluntarily pulled themselves out of political office and been able to leverage that into more political success”

Apparently King is considering every factor involved in political success except the most important—the support of voters.

Just wait until she has her 1st public speaking engagement and let the crowd size determine if she made a mistake!

Better make that engagement in one of the big sports stadiums is all I have to say.

More proof that Republicans are nothing more than media whores when it comes to criticizing someone in your own party.
