Yeah, I know, kinda like “schild en vriend” or “lollapalooza”.
Totally absurd. Odd thing but two other presidents who was disdained by the pointy-heads: Harry Truman and Ike. The two men hated one another, but what they had in common was the same—where they came from Independence, M0 and Abilene, KS, were and are much alike. Families were different, but ordinary in their own ways. On the even of D-Day, Ike could speak to the paratroops in their own language without affectation, without condescension. Harry was always approachable—and plain-spoken but MUCH more courtly and soft-spoken (so I was told, by someone who met him in 1948; she still has the glove she wore when she shook his hand) than the bantam-cock image. Ike got a college education on the public dime; Harry had to forego college because his Dad went broke. We all know Reagan’s story.
Anyway, Palin is of their ilk. Not intellectual: nor were they. With the common touch: so had they. Strong-minded; intelligent; perceptive; courageous. Very different people, but put them all in the same room, and they would have got along very well. Palin, of course, would have deferred to them. She is THAT kind, too.
I hope she runs, just to spite them.
No, I was joking. Aruanan has summarized the actual Bible story in post #51 above.
John Edwards pretended to be a populist.
What he really was, was a phony -- about absolutely everything.
I recall that when Palin appeared on the “Saturday Night Live,” that Fey suddenly seemed to shrivel before my eyes when she was introduced to the real Palin. Like an impersonator confronted with the real Elvis.
Hey, in my book, ALL populists are phony.
If its secret, how do you know it is perverted?
The Republican party NEEDS to be destroyed; it’s as F’d up as the libtards.
And, do tell, who’s your magical candidate for 2012??
My accurate assessment of their lack of intelligence and character stand.
“>>>She will be the next president if I have anything to say about it. Look at who her enemies are and choose a side. >>>>>>
here,here!”
HERE, HERE!!

Spot on Cicero!
Everything Barack 'Jackwagon' Hussein and his socalists do only grows the Tea Party more and more.
Our Republic is done listening to the fools who made him President.
We're wide awake and watching!
Tea Party USA - Modern Day Paul Reveres - Growing by the Day!
Rush nails it again, right there.
“She will be the next president ....”
In God’s name we pray.
Amen
Sadly, Time magazine won’t be that kind to her. More like how she “stole” the election from the Kenyan Usurper...
That first pic. LOL! My keyboard is probably toast. :)
As I recall, Buckley supported both Goldwater and Reagan from the outset.
Will supported neither.
Will, bless his heart, is not qualified to be the arbiter of Buckley's preferences.
I don't know if it is I was asking if it is.
In your screed you have failed to include what she might do as POTUS that would be so disastrous for the nation and the GOP.
Who is YOUR favorite candidate?
Like to diss SP then give us YOURS to diss back.
or stay out of it.
ain’t got one yet?
Then REALLY stay out of it!
