You know what I learned last week?

I learned that the elite and arrogant on the right are almost as bad as the elite and arrogant on the left.

Being a “New Jersey Realist”, is that a surprise? Tell us, are you in the conservative counties in New Jersey or in the socialist counties?

Oorah! Ready for action! Sarah, I will go where you go, do what you want done. I'm not called the Dream Warrior for nothing.

Can wait for our counterattack at the socialists and those who would do our constitution ill.

Once, in a previous life, I was a fairly radical liberal. I even campaigned for a Sierra Club cause. That was where I found out that both sides of hard-fought issues resort to lies and subterfuge. I think that was the beginning of my awakening.

I truly love this woman. And I want to send her my deepest sympathies for the crass and disgusting attacks made on her children.
Only pondscum go after a special needs child.

"I learned that the elite and arrogant on the right are almost as bad as the elite and arrogant on the left."

Your statement contains ONE word too many. See correction above.

New Jersey Realist says:
I’m done with Palin. Can’t stand her voice for another minute.
Well, for the conservative who values life, liberty and property the voice of Sarah Palin cuts through the rino fog and will be heard. I suggest that you grasp your liberal tendencies and celebrate Obamanomics. Real conservatives recognize one another.

"I can't fight for what's right when I'm shackled to the governor's seat," Palin said.

Alaska state senator and Palin ally Gene Therriault told me. "The call went out from the national Democratic party to take her down. Some of the Democrats who worked with her previously took their marching orders."

"In politics you're either eating well or sleeping well," Palin said. "I want to be able to sleep well."

Palin has begun ramping up her criticism of President Obama. "Somebody's got to start asking President Obama questions" about how he plans to pay for his agenda, Palin said.

In her July 3 speech, she blasted "debt-ridden stimulus dollars," said that "today's Big Government spending" is "immoral and doesn't even make economic sense," and called the national debt "obscene."

In an interview last week with Time magazine, she called cap-and-trade "cap-and-tax," and said the policy would "drive the cost of consumer goods and cost of energy so extremely high that our nation is going to start exporting even more jobs to China."

"It's not 'meddling' in another country's business when you understand that what happens over there affects us over here," she said. "I wish Obama was tougher in that area."

“Real conservatives recognize one another.”

Just like the Hell’s Angels. :}

“You know what I learned last week? I learned that the elite and arrogant on the right are almost as bad as the elite and arrogant on the left.”

I’d really like to hear more about that.

Yes, a list is being kept. But it’s the author of the article who has the list on his desktop, not Sarah.

As someone commented earlier in the thread, she’s flushing the rats and snakes out of their holes for all of us to see. She radiates light. They’re squirming.

What’s going on is nothing short of phenomenal.

I agree. She has the instincts of a champion athlete, and the skills of a seasoned hunter. I'm never really SURPRISED by what she does, but I am always in awe of her utter courage.

“I’m never really SURPRISED by what she does, but I am always in awe of her utter courage.”

redhead, your entire statement was worthy of quoting above, but I’ll settle for emphasizing that part.

She is fearless and yet so gracious. It comes from above.

She’s well prepared for the contest to which she evidently has been called.

They are demonstrating the old nostrum, “When in danger or in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout.”

The trembling will come later.
