To Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!: "Fine, but what do you think of Sarah Palin?"

Well, you did not ask me but I will tell you anyway.

I think that Sarah Palin is a nice lady and I would not mind having her as a neighbor.

I also think that wanting a Sarah Palin GOP nomination is the epitomy of irrationality, recklessness, foolishness and idiocy since, in the general election, Obama would beat Sarah Palin like a rented mule.

===================================

I like Palin. I thought her show with Greta on ANWR was superb. I like her fight,I like her politics. She has to pee or get off the pot. I don’t think it is strategic for her at all to sit on the fence.I see no logic in it whatsoever-I am sorry. She does not have a lick of a chance with Perry in. She has said if the right candidate gets in she will not run. She endorsed Perry in the past. I see Palin right now as making the best secretary of energy ANWR- drill baby drill.

Seriously, I think most Texans that move always long to be back home, something in the water.

I moved to Texas when I was 18. Frankly, I don't know why anyone would move from Texas. I love to go on vacation, but when I cross the Red River back into Texas, my heart is full.

Well, it’s starting to look like you’ll get your wish - a RINO with suspiciously nice hair, and some nice Negro or chick on the bottom of the ticket.

Yes, you made the other point I forgot to.Obama would beat Palin in a national election; the polls and the independent voters don’t lie.Palin should have grabbed the reins like Bachmann did to debate more and try to garner more votes than just her base.
Palin was unfairly alinskyized. The Indy voters are not appalled by Bachmann because of her fair tax; attorney past.Bachmann is in the heartbeat of the issues daily and could muddle through with foreign affairs.Palin cannot.

Get back to me with your platitudes when these same politicians spout Polish, German, Chinese, Scandinavian, French, etc. to gain the support of immigrants.

Oh, I forgot, anything to do with immigration is all about hispanics now. Nothing else matters.

BTW, did your uncle learn English? Because it would seem to me that if the hispanics wanted to be Americans they would learn English and these politicians wouldn't have to speak to them in spanish to get their attention.

Another good reason for Perry to pick Rubio as his running mate. Florida took a huge hit economically when NASA was shut down. Double payback.

On top of that, Sen. Nelson has his highest support from bluehairs and NASA employees, he may keep the bluehairs but the NASA vote is gone.

Picking Rubio will bring in the Hispanic vote, shore up Perry’s questionable conservative record, assure Nelson is gone as he will also be a NASA reminder and cause the left to explode.

A win for Florida, Texas and America.

Have you heard LTC Allen Weat speak? He is brilliant and it is clear he trumps anyone in the running on Foreign policy issues accept maybe Bolton and it is unclear if he is running. West is very well educated in many facets.

“She should have finished out her term” ..... lone star annie

Anybody who believes this really should give up politics as a hobby. ...... rbmillerjr

So, rbmillerjr, do you believe that the way to deal with blackmailers is to run away?

So, rbmillerjr, do you believe that it sets a good precedent to send a message that, if you want a Chief Executive to run away, all you have to do is file frivolous lawsuits?

So, rbmillerjr, are you so gullible and trusting that you cannot possibly imagine why Sarah Palin might want to quit a Governorship, at the peak of her celebrity status, and hit the Reality TV show circuit?

April 15, 2010: Sarah Palin income 12 million dollars since leaving office

Annie, here is the reality of the matter:

Excuses for Sarah Palin are to a rabid Palinista as kernels of corn are to a corn cob: .......

...... Both the Palinista and the corn cob have approximately 528 of them.

The Governor has many ceremonial duties. He’s been in office 10+ years, so there have been quite a few. The Governor would naturally greet the Aga Khan when he came to the State.

He accepted money from Khan for a program in Texas to teach history teachers about the history of Islam. I wish it were for science and English, but at least it’s not tax money. Neither is the money used for class room lessons as it was in Mansfield ISC.

It makes me feel a lot better knowing you live in the UK-I am sorry to hear about your riots, you are from the UK, correct? So you are not american nor a voter, are you a DU troll? What knowledge do you have to call Perry a RINO? Trouble making is not nice. I was fired up and mad and you are just a troll?Thank God Free Republic is not full of people like you and it is just a troll thing...Now get off the Palin lists before I yell at them thinking they did it again.
