Excellent speech by Sarah Palin! During the follow-up Q & A session, she made the statement: "It’s time a woman became president of the United States of America". Hardly a terrible thought, and the statement was probably used as a cheerful way to say Sarah Palin should be president. I'm sure the crowd got it. Unfortunately, others did not.

I use the word, 'unfortunately', because on other threads the anti-Palin people went ballistic and have posted hundreds of messages, mostly denouncing Palin for engaging in 'gender politics'. From there, the threads devolve into a what amounts to a Palin-bashing orgy of sorts. I suspect a lot of liberal trolls are in the mix but there are plenty of anti-Palin posters that are likely conservatives that just don't like Sarah Palin, for any number of reasons I'm sure they feel strongly about. So be it. Still, her speech was great and just the kind of optimistic, common sense approach that Palin uses - and some hate her for. You can't please everyone.

I read that thread. Many newbies, but no surprise. PDS was alive and thriving. I thought I was at DU and needed to shower afterwards.

Well, keep in mind that there is a strong cadre of professional DNC operatives whose job is to show up on Palin live feeds, blogs, and forums and vandalize them. They infest her Facebook page, and aim to demoralize and disgust her supporters.

It's Psy-Ops and cyberwarfare of the worst sort, which the libs mastered in 2008 using David Axelrod's brand of "Chicago Way" Alinksyite astroturfing.

I think you have given an important clue to Sarah Palin's intentions when you quoted Sarah, "It’s time a woman became president of the United States of America." Her speech gave another clue, and it was an important message to countries around the world who impede their society when they keep women in economic as well as social burqas. I read between the lines when she spoke these words:

"We are on the side of religious tolerance & women's rights! (And in recent years, India has helped lead by example in the area of women's education by narrowing the gender gap in women's literacy. You've helped remind the world that a culture cannot advance when it holds back half its creative & intellectual power!)"

"And its political power! I admire India's tradition of strong women leaders - at home & abroad! In fact, last year, I had the honour of supporting a strong American woman of Indian descent when I endorsed the candidacy of South Carolina's new governor - their first female - Nikki Haley!"

It is the Left in America who have a most twisted view of feminine freedom to reach their goals of individual accomplishment. To the women who succeed, they attribute the most pornographic images, complete with knee-pads, abortion and whoring their way to the top. A Sarah Palin candidacy will put a spotlight on this culture of death that is running this Great Ship American into the iceberg.

"2012 can't come soon enough," to quote Sarah Palin.

Yeah I knew that comment would be like adog whistle to flush out the sexists in the ABP. It's like catnip to them...Saying it's time for a woman to be POTUS to a sexist is like waving the red flag to a bull they can't help themselves........
