Palin: Condi Rice "Would Be A Wonderful Vice President"
Real Clear Politics ^ | July 13, 2012

Posted on 07/13/2012 11:36:49 AM PDT by Free ThinkerNY

"I think that Condoleezza Rice would be a wonderful vice president and she certainly has much more experience than our sitting president," former Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) said when asked for her reaction to news that Rice is near the top of Romney's list for VP.

Palin is asked by host of "On the Record" Greta van Susteren what she thought about Rice being "moderately pro-choice."

Palin tells host of "On the Record" Greta van Susteren that she would prefer a pro-life vice presidential candidate, however she says ultimately the power to legislate abortion does not lie with the vice president.

I think that regardless of which man is elected... there will be free elections in 2016. You underestimate the potential of the power of the States and the Patriots that are sitting on 100 million firearms and about 10 billion rounds of ammunition. Frankly, I do not see this Republic surviving without MAJOR changes in entitlement spending, reduction in ALL taxes and a shrinking of the Federal government to a sustainable level. I truly believe in my heart that mitt... like George Bush... will usher in someone just as evil as obama and just as marxist... but this time the left will elect someone that will carry through on the dream of anarchists and those that hate Liberty and Freedom.

I understand the economy and I also understand business and I understand where we are heading if something does not radically change.

Let me ask you a question... do you think that mitt romney... working with john boehner and mitch mcconnell... are the three men that can and will shake the foundations of Mordor and release us from the evil of the left? Do you think that mitt romney will get the Federal Government out of our health care system all together? NO... because he has pledged to repeal obamacare AND REPLACE IT! Will he cut the Department of Education and take on the teachers unions? No... he will come up with some new angle to funnel money that we do not have... into that evil den of pit vipers. Do you think that boehner, mcconnell and romney will tell America the truth about the ponzi scheme of socialist security and reduce that program to sustainable levels? NO... they will not because they do not have the guts to stand up to the pressures that would come and they are true believers in the nanny state... so nothing will happen there to change the dynamic.

Unless we get a true Patriot and Conservative elected to do all of these hard things that we all know must be done to save our Republic... we are still going to end up in default and possibly a total collapse of our society... mitt may delay that event by a few years... or he may not.

You have faith in the gop/e and their elected machine... I no longer do. I have peeked under the hood of that machine and have seen what runs it. That is something that you must do for yourself. As far as your making a difference where you live... fantastic... but don't count your chickens too quickly. I worked hard to elect a real TEA Party firebrand as our Congressman in 2010. He was running against Gene Taylor... a long term dim who was somewhat Conservative but who loved the redistribution of wealth. Tim Palazzo was elected with my help and the help of many others. Several of us donated heavily to that man. He was co-opted within 10 minutes of arriving in DC... they even brought in trent lott to pressure the newly elected TEA Party people... and now we have another moderate "go along to get along" progressive drone.

Palazzo was holding a fund raiser in a restaurant that a friend of mine and his wife were eating at. He walked up and asked my friend for his support again. My friend said, "Not this time... we have seen how you have worked with boehner and voted for every spending bill put in front of you. You have not represented the TEA Party movement with your actions". Palazzo responded, "You don't understand how DC works. I have to go along to get along... I have to work with the leadership to get committee assignments and bring the bacon home to Mississippi". My friend said, "We damn sure do know how DC works... we sent you to DC to work with like minded men and women to CHANGE the way that DC works. We don't want you to "bring home the bacon"... we wanted you to stop Mississippi bacon from ever arriving in DC". Tim walked away without further comment.

You see... sometimes you think you are electing a true Conservative... but you never know. You will know soon enough. BTW, we tried to primary him but his name recognition was too hard to overcome. He will easily win reelection because Mississippi is about 75% gop. mitt will win Mississippi also... but he will do it without my vote... unless he signs a binding Contract with America... which is highly unlikely.

Tim Palazzo was not who he claimed that he was but he was young and without much of a history. mitt has a history in politics... the man is a hard leftist and I can prove it with his own words and images. Abortion rights were instilled in mitt from birth... his mother taught him the importance of a woman's right to choose. Who said that? mitt romney said that and the evidence is sitting on You Tube right now. He was "never part of the Reagan Revolution... I never believed in it or the man"... mitt said it... and it too resides in the public domain.

I will no longer lie to myself and others to promote a gop candidate because of the "lesser of two evils" rule... evil is evil... period.

If you doubt that mitt is that bad, I would be happy to send to to some You Tube video links of the man in his own skin and with his own words that prove my assertion.

No matter how lacking he is, there is simply no way he can be compared to Obama. 4 more years of this commie scumbag and we're pretty much done as a country. It's hold-your-nose, better-of-two-evils time once again. It's as simple as that. At least Romney will undo some of the damage Obama has done to our defenses.

"Change will not come if we wait for some other person or if we wait for some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek"-- BARACK OBAMA

"The Communist Party USA views the 2008 elections as a tremendous opportunity to defeat the policies of the right-wing Republicans and to move our country in a new progressive direction.

The record turnout in the Democratic Presidential primary races shows that millions of voters, including millions of new voters, are using this election to bring about real change. We wholeheartedly agree with them."

A Landslide Mandate For Change

A breakthrough election
Congratulations on an extraordinary history making election!

We can think back with pride to decades of hard work toward our strategic goal of a big enough, broad enough and united enough labor and all-people’s movement that could overcome the ultra-right blockage to all progress. That all people’s movement has come to life, it is dynamic and it has the potential to keep growing.

The election of Barack Obama and a strengthened Congress creates new conditions in our country. There is now the possibility to shift gears and move forward. This new day requires us to further develop our tactics in order to continue to deepen and broaden labor and people’s unity.

There are thousands of experiences that we all have had in these momentous days, some large, some small, all of which express the enormity of change in thinking and readiness for involvement that is underway and that steels us for the battles ahead.

The tears of joy we all shared as crowds gathered to watch the election results here and throughout the world dramatize the new moment we are in.

Change is Here, Change is Coming

Sam Webb, National Chair, Communist Party, USA:

Let me begin with a simple observation: If the last 30 years were an era of reaction, then the coming decade could turn into an era of reform, even radical reform. Six months into the Obama presidency, I would say without hesitation that the landscape, atmosphere, conversation, and agenda have strikingly changed compared to the previous eight years.

In this legislative session, we can envision winning a Medicare-like public option and then going further in the years ahead.

We can visualize passing tough regulatory reforms on the financial industry, which brought the economy to ruin.

We can imagine the troops coming home from Iraq and Afghanistan while U.S. representatives participate in a regional process that brings peace and stability to the entire region.

In the current political climate, the expansion of union rights becomes a real possibility.

Much the same can be said about winning a second stimulus bill, and we sure need one, given the still-rising rate, and likely long term persistence, of unemployment.

Isn’t it possible in the Obama era to create millions of green jobs in manufacturing and other sectors of the economy in tandem with an attack on global warming?

Can’t we envision taking new strides in the long journey for racial and gender equality in this new era, marked at its beginning by the election of the first African American to the presidency?

And isn’t the overhaul of the criminal justice and prison system – a system steeped in racism – no longer pie-in-the sky, but something that can be done in the foreseeable future?

All these things are within reach now!

From the Washington Times, April 30, 2012:

New [2012] Obama slogan has long ties to Marxism, socialism

[snip]

Many Communist and radical publications and entities throughout the 19th and 20th centuries had the name "Forward!" or its foreign cognates. Wikipedia has [since deleted] an entire section called "Forward (generic name of socialist publications)."

"The name Forward carries a special meaning in socialist political terminology. It has been frequently used as a name for socialist, communist and other left-wing newspapers and publications," the online encyclopedia explains.

The slogan "Forward!" reflected the conviction of European Marxists and radicals that their movements reflected the march of history, which would move forward past capitalism and into socialism and communism.

The Obama campaign released its new campaign slogan Monday in a 7-minute video. The title card has simply the word "Forward" with the "O" having the familiar Obama logo from 2008. It will be played at rallies this weekend that mark the Obama re-election campaign's official beginning. ..."

There is nothing more effective than spewing out spam. obama is the worst president that this country has ever had. I was calling him a communist long before he was elected president. He is also a muslim and a usurper... but THAT is exactly the kind of country that we live in today... a country that will elect such a demon to lead her. We face enemies from all directions... and that means from within the gop itself.

I have also known who and what mitt romney is and I have been calling him out for it for far longer than he has been running for president... so the same goes for mitt romney.

No matter how many posts you make to me in response... or how many links to Internet sites that you include... no matter how hard you try... mitt romney is still the worst candidate that the gop has promoted during my lifetime.

I do not have the luxury of waiting another 20 years for real change to occur. I have been a gop activist for almost 40 years... and I have always towed the party line and carried their water. No more. I will NEVER again award the corruption of the gop and their infectious meddling in our primary system... with my vote. Their sole goal is to assure that one of their elite drones that they can control will win the nomination.

ANYONE wishing for me to vote for them... is going to have to get my vote the old fashioned way... THEY WILL HAVE TO EARN IT! You want me to vote for mitt... then get him to sign a Conservative and Binding CONTRACT WITH AMERICA... one that will hold his own feet to the fire. Otherwise... you are wasting your time and mine.

With all respect, I despise our current president. Removing him from power is of the utmost importance.

Funny, while others here were tearing into Perry, Newt and Santorum, I was fine with any of the three so long as a Romney nomination could have been avoided.

Same here, although I wasn't a Perry fan. But Romney? No.

Joe the bartender? Now, he has distinct possibilities.

I sure wish Sarah would grow a spine on this stuff, and just tell it like it is.

There is no reason at this point to be so polite and gracious; it just makes the voters more angry.

No, Sarah Palin knows that it is time to circle the wagons. This what she is doing.

Really? Then I take it back.

I, on the other hand, didn't support any of them. In fact, I'm so pure I don't support anyone at all for president. None of them are good enough. George Washington reincarnated is not good enough. That's how pure I am. The purist, more pure conservative you'll ever meet. And did I mention "pure"?

“Condi has shown herself to be a RINO and Romney needs someone to balance out his RINOism or conservatives will stay home.”

That would surely be a case of cutting off the nose to spite the face. Surely Romney + anyone is enough better then Obama to be worth voting, isn’t it? How could the choice of VP swing the decision to not vote?

Apology accepted Gator113. :)

Diet RC, and the Chili. Close enough. :)

Well the only way to unscrew the country is to get back to a sound money standard (quit printing it to fund gubberment giveaways).

And the GOP needs to fight for its principles and stop crossing the aisle and playing kissy face with the dems on critical issues
