LIMBAUGH: What Sarah Palin actually said... ‘The Quotable Rogue: Sarah Palin in Her Own Words’

When it comes to the subject of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, Matt Lewis has been ahead of the curve. He suggested that Sen. John McCain consider her as his running mate at a time when she had little national name recognition. Prescience.

Mr. Lewis has been an enthusiastic admirer and close observer of Mrs. Palin for several years. Tired of the mainstream media’s microscopic scrutiny of Mrs. Palin, its hyperbolic coverage of irrelevancies and its manufactured “gotcha” journalism, Mr. Lewis has just released “The Quotable Rogue,” a comprehensive compilation of quotes from Mrs. Palin categorized into subjects from “abortion” to “Washington.”

This book is the most honest and objective depiction of Mrs. Palin yet published because it records her own words, directly and accurately, instead of with embellishments and mischaracterizations routinely served up by the agenda-driven media.

As such, it also is the most informative source available on the important views of this dynamic lady, who already has attracted the attention of a nation and is sure to play an even greater role in the months and years to come - irrespective of whether she chooses to throw her hat into the presidential race. Indeed, Mr. Lewis appears to have compiled the book partially out of his frustration that despite endless media coverage, “the vast majority of Palin’s opinions and statements remain unfamiliar.”

Besides, what better way to answer the insults and charges against Mrs. Palin than to consult her own words. Even better, many of these quotes, which address a wide range of political and cultural issues, are extracted from unscripted moments, so we get a real glimpse into Mrs. Palin’s thoughts, absent any editorial airbrushing or blurring.

And countering with BO’s Quotes:

“On this Memorial Day, as our nation honors its unbroken line of fallen heroes — and I see many of them in the audience here today - our sense of patriotism is particularly strong.” - Barack Obama

“My friends, we live in the greatest nation in the history of the world. I hope you’ll join with me as we try to change it.” - Barack Obama

“Let me be absolutely clear. Israel is a strong friend of Israel’s. It will be a strong friend of Israel’s under a McCain...administration. It will be a strong friend of Israel’s under an Obama administration. So that policy is not going to change.” - Barack Obama / Amman, Jordan, July 22, 2008

“It’s not surprising, then, they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.” - Barack Obama explaining his troubles winning over some working-class voters

True story, so help me! Dreamt last night that I met Sarah Palin...can't remember where exactly - some gathering where lunch was being served. Had a chance to shake her hand, speak with her for a few moments. Told her there was no one running for president right now that I particularly would want to vote for, but that if she ran, I could vote for her.

Was just a dream folks...just a dream - a very brief, split-second moment of a dream.

"Sarah Pain? Ouch."

How did I do that? Anyway, I told everyone it was a little early for me and wasn't quite awake and firing on all cylinders.

In any event, I believe everyone will get the drift of the article. :O)

Sarah Palin will cause lots of pain for the usual suspects. She'll put a bright spotlight on them.

It wasn't your typo. The WT did it (either by mistake or on purpose). Look at the link and they use 'Pain' although the book cover shows 'Palin.'

Thanks ....... I'll have another look, but I still should have caught it.

You're right! Now I have to wonder if that was intentional in order to set out what Sarah Palin is to the liberals and the MSM not a mistake.

That was in fact the title that was set out on the Washington Times and I'm not going to modify it, which I don't have the authority to do, but is exactly what a liberal would do to make it more politically correct.

The title is what it is.

It wasn’t a note to you. I just copied you in on it. It was to the Admin Moderator, who has duly made the correction.

Try reposting this with hyperlinked keywords such as
