Well, there are certainly times when it looks like it.

Defend these anti-Palin cretins all you want. It won't alter my calling them what they are. Anyone who states "I cannot in good conscience support her" isn't giving her the benefit of any doubt and I in turn won't give it to him.

What part of

"I adore John McCain, support him 100 percent and will do everything I can to support his reelection."

was not clear enough to you?

Or do you just prefer to defend the indefensible?

Sorry, wrong guy. I am an employer, not the other way. Good for you.

That's a great thing about America's opportunities. A simple fisherlady from Alaska can be the next President of the United States. What's the matter with your position is that you appear to be scared of a strong woman? Your rants seem a little over the top.

I am so glad to have more opportunity to post about Sarah and give her contact information. Every reply by you will be met with the same response. Wanna see who can keep it up longer?

Sarah Palin now has 1,113,378 supporters on Facebook.

My opinion cannot be truth?

And since when is it savvy to back a person with McCain’s record? This 100% statement reveals the exact opposite of Sarah being politically savvy.

Look, I don’t get a kick out of saying this, but folks please quite looking for any reason possible to portray this statement in a good light.

That’s simply impossible.

If I come to the forum and stated, “ I adore John McCain, support him 100 percent and will do everything I can to support his reelection.”, what would you say to me? Then why can’t you say the same thing to Sarah?

This is a very important time in her growth process. If she can be made to see RINOs for who they are, we stand a very good chance of her ruling further to the right than she may have otherwise. Isn’t that what our goal should be?

If you think saying, “ I adore John McCain, support him 100 percent and will do everything I can to support his reelection.” is evidence of good, then you and I have different definitions of good.

Chunga, you know that wasn’t an astute thing to say. Why are you and I having to discuss it? It’s what it is. Neither of us can change it.

Perhaps you could list some things Sarah could say that would bother you, since this obviously doesn’t.

My thought is that you won’t be able to come up with a single thing, since there’s not much left out of John McCain’s bag of tricks, and Sarah supports him 100%.

I’ve personally got no problem with you supporting her at this point. This statement of hers does cause me concern that you’re going to have a very bumpy road over the next few years. If this is any indication of where she is headed, you won’t be the only person sad about what takes place.

I haven't found a perfect candidate, yet.

I am so glad to have more opportunity to post about Sarah and give her contact information. I am sick of PDS trolls with their own agendas, and their own candidates trashing a good candidate. Every reply by you will be met with the same response. Wanna see who can keep it up longer?

Sarah Palin now has 1,113,423 supporters supporters on Facebook.

“My opinion cannot be truth?”

It is possible for opinion to be truth. But opinion is opinion it is not fact or truth. The person stated that your “entire post was gospel truth”. So, no that is not truth it is opinion...you said numerous things, most of which are up for debate.

“And since when is it savvy to back a person with McCain’s record? This 100% statement reveals the exact opposite of Sarah being politically savvy.”

Again, your opinion which I believe to be incorrect.
It’s not rocket science. McCain gave Palin national recognition. That is a political debt that you don’t forget.
It is entirely politically gullible to think otherwise.

“If I come to the forum and stated, “ I adore John McCain, support him 100 percent and will do everything I can to support his reelection.”, what would you say to me? Then why can’t you say the same thing to Sarah?”

Because you and I are conservatives. Plain is a potential Presidential nominee. I think Palin proved she will support conservatives in primaries up in NY23 and in some other races. However, there will be GOP incumbents she may support that may not pass our litmus test for consrvatism. That is the way you build a national organization.

McCain is a totally unique circumstance as I stated above. you don’t kick people to the ground that gave you national prominence. Az. could be the difference in winning and losing to Obama. McCain enjoys busting balz of conservatives, he cut put Obama in office in retribution for Palin backstabbing him politically.

That is political suicide. Palin was intelligent enough and polically savvy enough not to play that game.

Sadly, you are so juvenile that you honestly think that is going to bother me. For the record, there are 309,000,000 people who are not following Sarah on Facebook.

Come election day 2012, I hope for two things. I hope that Sarah pans out to be the Conservative each of us wants her to be, and that 1,113,423 figure turns out to be about 70,000,000 by then.

If my hopes aren’t realized, then it will be best if that figure dwindles to 2,237.

Thus why she is NOT in my top 10 to vote for.

was not clear enough to you?

Or do you just prefer to defend the indefensible?

1) Hayworth hasn't declared.
2) Palin is a Republican.
3) Palin was asked by McCain to run for Vice President.
Under these circumstances, a failure to support McCain would display ingratitude, lack of good political judgment and indecisiveness unbecoming of any conservative.

Your lack of understanding is proof of immaturity, lack of wisdom and unclear thought processes.

Your age is a factor in all the above.

At 62, it's refreshing to be called juvenile. I don't know if she is the "right conservative" for you, but she is in the lead on my roster.

I am always to have more opportunity to post about Sarah and give her contact information. I am a proud supporter.

Sarah Palin now has http://media.adn.com/smedia/2009/12/13/21/4884646.42885.original.highlight.prod_affiliate.7.jpg on Facebook.

Yet.

2) Palin is a Republican.

So was Scozzafava.

And Specter, before he went home to the Democrat mother ship.

3) Palin was asked by McCain to run for Vice President. Under these circumstances, a failure to support McCain would display ingratitude, lack of good political judgment and indecisiveness unbecoming of any conservative.

Then she has put Party over principle.

And so have you.

Your lack of understanding is proof of immaturity, lack of wisdom and unclear thought processes.

Your age is a factor in all the above.

RE :”To the contrary, some are calling the Republican Party worthless and traitorous. “ (rbmillerjr; to stephenjohnbanker #492)

Traitorous is a strong word considering most of congress both parties are prostitutes. The big problem with McCain is he always went on NBC to complain about Republicans where he would be praised. That looks treasonous. Now if he went on FNC or talk radio and complained, that wouldn't have been bad

How about them being worthless? Republicans are doing a fine job opposing democrats, as the minority, especially with them dropping in the polls. It is driving Democrats nuts. But how about Republicans as leaders, you know, a majority type role? Worthless would be a good word. Republicans give no reasons why they should be in charge except, "We are not Democrats".

On that note I refer you to my Palin fan challenge at :#378

I guess ignorance is bliss.

McCain gave Palin national recognition. That is a political debt that you don’t forget.

And without Palin, McCain would have gone down in flames...for the sixth time.

I'd say that he owes her a political debt for giving him more than a 0.5 percent chance of maintaining the slightest shred of "relevancy."

I'd say those two debts cancel each other out.

Because you and I are conservatives. Plain is a potential Presidential nominee. I think Palin proved she will support conservatives in primaries up in NY23 and in some other races. However, there will be GOP incumbents she may support that may not pass our litmus test for consrvatism. That is the way you build a national organization.

Either support libertarian conservatives, or get lost.

you don’t kick people to the ground that gave you national prominence.

You also don't sell your soul to political devils.

McCain enjoys busting balz of conservatives, he cut put Obama in office in retribution for Palin backstabbing him politically.

He already did.

"I have to tell you, [Obama] is a decent person, a person that you
do not have to be scared [of] as president of the United States."

U.S. SEN. JOHN MCCAIN, 10 OCT. 2008

"I think the Democratic Party is a fine party, and I have
no problems with it, in their views and their philosophy."

U.S. SEN. JOHN MCCAIN, 02 APR. 2004

"I adore John McCain, support him 100 percent
and will do everything I can to support his reelection."

It's really comical to watch folks when confronted with truth.


If an opinion once expressed relects truth, then it can be recognized as such.  But enough of juvenile avoidences.

Yes, these things are up for debate.  That doesn't mean that a poster who agrees with me cannot voice the opinion that I spoke the truth.  IMO, I spoke the truth.  In his opinion I spoke the truth.  And in the opinions of other people, I spoke the truth.  I'm still not going to sit here and watch you bend yourself in knots, to dismiss my comments being true.

It's my opinion that John McCain was the Republican nominee in 2008.  My opinion, is my voiced perception of reality.  So is this a falsehood or not?  No.

It's not politically gullible to think that Palin should avoid endorsing McCain 100%.  That's utter nonsense.
Good heavens.  You build a national following by explaining what Conservatism is, incorporating it into your platform, incorporating that platform into the actions you take, and addressing issues and people from the vantage point of being a true Conservative, that supports Conservative ideals and the people who share that vision.

Honest to God the contortions folks go to, to get around the elephant in the middle of the road.  Hey, there's an elephant in the middle of the road.  Don't try to make the case that since the road is curved, the elephant isn't precisely in the middle of the line a crow would fly.  It's just pointless.

Sarah wants our votes. She's not going to get it making statements like the one she made here.  So you can flap you gums as much as you like, it was a bonehead move.  To quote someone on this forum, "That is policitcal suicide."  You may not agree, but then you don't have to agree for it to be true.  If she continues down this road, she will become unelectable.

Palin showed herself not to be savvy, or intelligent either one by this statement.  And I woudln't have to be pointing that out, if folks would simply quite trying to defend the indefensible.
