Ailes to Palin Death Wishers: Piss Off!

Roger Ailes hired former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin back as Fox News contributor to piss off people who wanted her dead. Ailes:

The only two people I knew who got worse press than her were Richard Nixon and George W. Bush — some of it unfairly, much of it unfair to her family. She’s recognizable, she’s attractive, and she still has the message of stop raising taxes. The Tea Party started as a group that [the government] could make go home to bake meatloaf at any point in the last three years by simply doing two things: Stop raising taxes and stop stealing their money. Congress can’t stop spending money. I’m not a defender of everything she says. I don’t hear everything she says. But I know she represents a certain group of people who rose up against their own party, which you rarely see. I probably hired her back, if you really want to get to the bottom of it, to give her a chance to say her piece and piss off the people that wanted her dead.

Whatever his reasons, he made the correct decision.

Are you sure that’s a dude in your pix? Looks like an ugly old woman to me.

ROTFL.

I've often wondered whether Imus ever actually looks at himself, because he most assuredly looks like an UGLY, OLD woman!

LOLOLOL.

“........the most articulate in that she doesn’t BS people, but she certainly knows how to cut right to the point.”..

Simply stated, she does B.S. the people with all the political garbage spewed from the typical politician.

One time imass’s wife was on a show, with him, she said ?? something, and he interrupted her then made some remark that she didn’t know much. He’s a arrogant twit.

I agree with Ailes.

She’s “our girl”, and she speaks more for me and mine than any I’ve heard in a long time (same for Ted Cruz and Mike Lee).

God bless her and her family and protect them from the psychopaths on the left.

She stands unashamedly for something and people hate that. Because they look at themselves and see that most of them do not stand for anything if it personally costs them to do it.

“Hey I got a family man...and a car and a house payment. I can’t afford to make waves...”

Perhaps we could all chip in to hire a Securitron to guard the Palin threads.

Or you could just avoid these threads Norm.

This is what conservative middle America looks like, and it drives the dhimmis and their assorted barking moonbat hangers-on insane(r) !

No, we're not all so beautiful, or put together so perfectly.  And no, we've not all been blessed with such familial contentment.  Nor with such oratorical gifts.

But there IS an inner glow and quiet confidence kindled by the pride of being grateful citizens of what has hitherto been mankind's greatest effort toward individual liberty.

The enemies of that liberty, those who would have us in chains, must constantly don a faux mask of civility, to the extent they care to camouflage their darkness.

And for the ones who are somehow able to hide that interior ugliness of envy and treason with some degree of external 'prettiness', one can only be reminded of Dorian Gray.

'Smugness', you say ?
Hardly, as this homage comes from a half-crippled old carpenter, going grey, with nary the proverbial pot.

Sarah is but one embodiment of the spirit that lives in the hearts of a hundred million Citizens out here in flyover America.
And while she's an amazingly 'easy on the eyes' example thereof, that same confident glow can still be seen, and seen abundantly, on any given trip to town.

So the bad news for those who would continue in their attempts to destroy the legacy left by the Founders .. and the promise from those of us who are humbled by the miracle of it .. is this:


   WE'RE HERE TO STAY !
