How Long Will Palin Stick With Her "Tribe?" (Elitist snobbery alert)

CBS News ^ | January 8, 2009 | Charles Cooper

[andy58-in-nh]

Same thing with some members of my family - utter, irrational rage... which, as you’ve probably guessed isn’t really “rage” at all, but fear.

[MrB]

Clearly the country elected someone to president who spent 20 years in a church and didn’t hear one anti-american or racist sermon from the pastor.

[cripplecreek]

enormity of their lack of insight

That's really what it comes down to.

[RichInOC]

Sorry, who?

[roses of sharon]

Charles Cooper...CBS San Fransisco Gay Tribe.

[maxter]

Yes, she looks very presidential.

[misharu]

Liberals are absolutely terrified of her.

Personally, I think they are afraid that she will gather up the "tribe" and put them on the warpath. Which would not be a bad idea . . . .

[Paratrooper]

The media has some how brain washed all liberals...and many moderates, with the exact message your brother is stating. I have heard and read the same many times.

Question is how do we dispel this liberal branding of Sarah. I believe we must immediately confront people like you brother and tell them the facts...maybe they will think before they speak. Give your brother a copy of Sarah’s book.

[GOYAKLA]

Definitely a WINNER!
Needed on bumper sticker”Sarah/Attila from Wasilla”.

[Uri’el-2012]

The "tribe" is shorthand for the millions of white conservatives...

I think it is a "coded" message to rally Jews against Palin.

Don’t think it was Keith as it sounds like something my old union griever has said to me in many emails. He will send something and I will ask for a source and have been told he doesn’t need sources as he watches MSNBC and CNN. I am sure he and Plowhandle are either the same person or related.

[ClearCase_guy]

Give your brother a copy of Sarah’s book.

Actually, that's how the conversation started! I told him I was going to give him Sarah's book for Christmas.

I don't push with him. It's not worth it. He harangued me for 8 years about what an idiot Bush was -- over and over and over again. Now that Obama is in the White House, if I breathe a word of criticism for Obama, or praise for any Republican, my brother acts like I've "crossed the line" -- I'm talking in a hateful and anti-American kind of way (apparently).

I value peace in the family, so I talk about other things

I think they are afraid that she will gather up the "tribe" and put them on the warpath.

So a 41 seat pickup in November will be considered the sacking of Washington. Lets do it.

As a history buff I like to point out that Philip of Macedon (A.T.Greats Dad) was known to the Anatolian Greeks as Philip the Barbarian. But seeing as he had just finished conquering them nobody called him that to his face. He is also the main reason that so much of Greek culture survives to this day.

When the Dems get all scared and worried about the barbarians just remind them that being conquered by the right sort of barbarian isn't always a bad thing. After all Aristotle went from being the student of a man executed for treason to the philosopher to the king. And the Macedonians and the Mongols are the only two groups ever to completely pacify Afghanistan.

So in November 2010 Vote Barbarian Tea Horde for a real change.

This message paid for by the committee to elect tea party barbarians to congress.

[668 - Neighbor of the Beast]

give voice to their inchoate dissatisfaction

Nothing inchoate about it. Heck, I never even enrolled in elitist Choate.

[The Comedian]

She's passing through their defenive shielding...

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

Amen.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

That's why Palin turned down a chance to go to the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington while agreeing to speak at the higher-profile Southern Republican Leadership Conference in New Orleans.

The willful blindness of liberal MSM hacks is simply astounding.

[clodchopper]

Hey PLOWHANDLE, You Democrats are just stupid people. You don’t get it. It isn’t Republicans that follow Sarah. It is THE TRUE AMERICANS (Democrats, Republicans and Independents)!!! The Americans that have sat back and watched the Stupid people in the democrat, Republican and Independent Parties ruin this once great country. Wake up you fools. It isn’t Democrat vs Republicans but keep calling it that if you want. You idiots are clueless and soon you’ll see how “IRRELEVANT” we really are. You cowards are shaking in your boots and guess what? We’ve figured it out and no matter what puke you spew, America will rise again as a free nation. Man I really get a kick out of the ignorant, stupid democraps, like yourself, that keep spewing out the puke and the ignorant masses that keep lapping it up. OBTW, America has managed to elect 537 of the biggest liars, crooks and thieves ever seen and sent them all to DC. VENGENCE IS MINE, SAITH THE LORD, SO Keep it up maggot.

[GonzoGOP]

DC. VENGENCE IS MINE

Well they did say that Attila version 1.0 was the flail of god, who punished the wicked and sinful Romans. Perhaps we should all wear those helmets with the horns on them to the next tea party. I mean if we are going to be called barbarians we might as well dress the part. Although the ideas of barbarian and tea party don't seem to go well together.

[misharu]

So in November 2010 Vote Barbarian Tea Horde for a real change.

Now THAT ought be a bumpersticker!

(BTW, I hope you don't mind I used it for my tag!)
