Is Palin just a politician, after all?
WND ^ | 2/16/11 | Linda harvey

Sarah Palin told reporters that she would have no problem with the porn lobby being cosponsors and holding respected seats at the table at last week's CPAC meeting. Nor does she have a problem with Planned Parenthood. After all, these are "different, diverse groups involved in political discourse" – so why not allow them all to crowd in under the "conservative" umbrella?

Actually, she didn't say these things, but instead told Fox News "gay" groups had a right to be at CPAC. But, why not these others as well? Don't they fit her broad qualifications, as stated above? Why not allow anyone or any group, truly, as long as they decide to label themselves "conservative"? Who cares if Rachel Maddow shows up, saying she's a conservative? Hail to "conservatives" Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and Al Sharpton! Why not?

Isn't dialogue important?

Actually, no. When a group espouses a certain set of standards, there ought to be some "truth-in-labeling" involved. Are pro-lifers at NOW meetings? No, and for good reason. It's called integrity. Their presence would signal an endorsement of abortion. Attendance says, "I will listen to these people." But there are some points that are not open for discussion, not for people with strong convictions.

Discover what military personnel and decorated vets think of ending DADT in Whistleblower magazine's dramatic February issue, "DROPPING THE H-BOMB"

Why would any Christian conservative listen to guys who have sex with each other and are working diligently to silence those who tell them this might not be a great idea? With traditional conservatives, the GOProud homosexual group has zero credibility, yet Sarah has just given them quite a bit. She has made a big mistake, if she believes there's a legitimate "debate" that we can hold with sodomy advocates.

I am a voter, not a worshipper. As such, I am looking at everyone and eliminating those who disgust me, like gingrich, eliminating the good ol’ boys like barbour, and mr. healthcare hisself, mitt the romulan. Sarah might not run and I am not going to be blindsided by rinos and buffoons. After I know who is actually going to run, if there is any other candidate that is as trustworthy as what I think Sarah is, who can command ny respect as Sarah does, then I will vote accordingly.

Palin has gained lotsa folks’ trust here for various reasons. I judge candidates differently than most, apparently. That’s how I ended up supporting Hunter and Tancredo last time, and will support the most conservative this time.

Anyone who has a problem slamming Sarah for this remark, an inexcusable position, merely because she is Sarah, is no better than the Obamabots who consistently score their Illegitimate-in-Chief extremely favorably in the polls.

A useless poll handpicked by you and not at all reflective of the masses.

"Actually, she didn't say these things, "

If all they've got against her is stuff they make up, she can't be that bad a choice.

I couldn’t bring myself to vote for McCain either. It was agonizing seeing the people I liked drop by the wayside one by one during the 2008 primary season. Hunter was my early choice. I thought he did well and looked presidential during the debates(if a bit grim), but he went no where. I’m hesitant to back anyone going in with little name recognition this time. Many of the possible candidates I like(people like...well...DeMint, Bachmann, and Cain) are virtual unknowns to most voters. My hope is that Palin will do well in the debates/townhalls/interviews and turn around the high negatives she has now. If she doesn’t do well, I’ll have no difficulty switching my support to someone else. The main reason I’m supporting her at this point is that I think she’s the best bet to prevent Romney, Huckabee, or Newt from getting the nomination.

"...try to convince me that she’s really a solid conservative."

Here's a clue... Sarah won the FreeRepublic Presidential poll with over 80% supporting her. Simply put, she wins with or without you. Buck up or stay in the truck, crease. It's not up to us to educate you. For all we know, you're beyond help.

"Palin’s electability can be reckoned as an inverse function of the virulent campaign intent on her delegitimation. … The greater the fury … she is met with, the greater the likelihood that she poses a genuine threat. One does not raise a mallet to crush an ant.”

The reality of what Sarah Palin does to liberals, maggot infected gays posing as journalists/writers, lesbians, abortion queens, and of course the kind and gentle Rinos is shown below:

Two questions: Who is YOUR candidate, and will you vote for Sarah if she is nominated? Bob

A: DeMint, Bachmann, Cain are my candidates that are flirting with running. All 3 very conservative.

B: Most likely

I love all three of these potential candidates also. If one of them gains traction and wins, he or she will have my 100% backing. Sarah is the only one of the four with executive experience, and is the best fundraiser. I would be comfortable at a CPAC with gays in attendance, but NOT if they were there to push homosexual issues in any way. I don’t trust GOProud either, but I’d be interested to speak with them, to feel them out, to use a nauseating term. I believe that most of these “Republicans” voted for Obama. Best, Bob

Palin’s comments about being fine with GOProud attending do not bother me all that much. Maybe she doesn’t know how radical they are, and believes Ann Coulter that they are conservatives.

I was far, far more disturbed by her re-tweeting of Tammy Bruce’s admonishment to opponents of repealing DADT. That’s a huge red flag for me.

According to Tammy Bruce, the main thrust of he tweet was her disgust at embarrassing homoerotic porn videos shown by Capt. Honors. So, maybe I don’t have a problem with the re-tweet after all. As for Tammy, I am always disturbed when a hottie goes after other women. Big-time issues, IMO. Tammy seems like a good woman. Bob
