Team Obama whines, clamors for relevance
Obama’s reaction to the Palin pick. Read between the lines:
“Today, John McCain put the former mayor of a town of 9,000 with zero foreign policy experience a heartbeat away from the presidency. [HOLY] Governor Palin shares John McCain’s commitment to overturning Roe v. Wade, the agenda of Big Oil and continuing George Bush’s failed economic policies — that’s not the change we need, it’s just more of the same,” [CRAP] spokesman Bill Burton said in a statement.

Are you surprised? It will get soooo much worse.
However, they are not referring to her decision as being selfish in the way you may think. They mean it is selfish in that she rose above the Liberal Rhetoric concerning a “Woman’s Choice”, giving an example of the RIGHT thing to do instead of the convinient thing to do. She was selfish for ruining thier argument and thinking only of a life, the life of her son, and not the women who did not take proer precautions and need a fast way out.
I, and so many others, view her decision as being brave, thoughtful, wonderful and loving. I’m sorry, but I would view someone who took the “easy way out” as low and selfish, and self-centered. What palin did was what a loving, caring mother and parent SHOULD do.
I guess we can see the stark difference in rationale.
I guess being a Senator which has barely been present to do his job in his first term beats a Governor that actually knows how to make executive decisions. The liberal shrills are screaming about her lack of experience and the fact she is too conservative for any of the Hillary shrews to vote for her. Most of the women I have talked to in our little military town in the middle of nowhere Idaho are pretty stoked about the grumpy old man’s selection and are planning to vote for McCain not that Idaho’s 4 electoral votes aren’t already a lock for him.
Far from justifying them, I really dislike them. I agree with you, though I think “irrationals” is far too kind of a word. And all of them, on either side, seem to have internet connections, alas.
On a side note, as someone whose wife has volunteered to work with the developmentally disabled and as one of those sensitive (NOT) “libtards,” do we think the elevation of a woman with a DS son might be an appropriate occasion to end the juvenile practice of appending “-tard” to various labels in order to underscore our dim view of the intellectual capacity of those whom we so label? Just a thought.
And finally, in honor of card-carrying union member Todd Palin, have a happy Labor Day Weekend.
Former mayor of a town of 9,000?
Let’s for a moment ignore the rest of this ridiculous little tantrum from the Obama camp and focus only on this. She used to be a small town mayor, therefore logically it is her highest accomplishment. It doesn’t matter that she is currently the GOVERNOR of Alaska. I think that the messianic delusions over at team Obama have led to his people naturally assuming that they can, through sheer power of will, alter the space time continuum to remove entire segments of people’s lives. Thus, Sarah Palin’s political life ends after her 1996 mayoral election by royal decree of the Obama campaign.
From another thread:
Didn’t take long for our very own trolls to get as disgusting as they can. Sorry, but picking on a NEW-BORN with DS…not much lower than you can get.
If this guy isn’t banned…
John McCain was able to put aside politics for a moment and congratulate Barack Obama’s nomination. On the truth of it, it is historic in a good way despite ones opinion of Obama. In return, we get this.
Stay classy, Obama.
Indeed! I’m a 28 yr old “kid”, but that’s also what we gamers say.
That’s right bemused lib… the Dream Candidate.
And yes, she fires up the base… that was sitting on the sidelines thus far.
As I wrote to lgm earlier… on election day, we will save you liberals from yourselves.
LMAO.. Awesome… I nominate that for Comment of the Month. Well done.
pfft.
“Small town mayor” beats “community organizer” any day.
I appreciate what you are saying. I have felt the same way. I liked Palin, but thought there was NO WAY McCain would pick her.
No my feelings about McCain have changed also. He pulled that rabbit out of a hat rather than spit in the face of conservatives.
I now have a reason to vote for McCain. There is hope for him on other issues also, such as immigration, ANWR and global warming.
What this shows is a certain humility. Obama would never pick somebody who might show him up. McCain was not afraid to do just that.
My opinion is that when Obama and his left wing partisans talk on the spur of the moment, they are actually saying what they mean. That is why I don’t even listen to their prepared speeches any longer.
I hope she can change McAmnesty’s opinion on immigration. Otherwise, looks like a good choice.
I like others have been slow to get behind Mccain. If she comes out and says she is against the MnAmnesty like i hope she does i will get back on the wagon. Right now i am going to keep walking along side. The Healthcare issue and the illegal immagration issue is all that is holding me back. I see these 2 issues as being a destroyer of our country no matter how you dress it up.
1. I do not want someone telling me how to decide my health or have someone else decide it foe me.
2. We are a nation built on laws. By allowing illegals to break the law does not send a good example to our childern or the world. What law are we will to be allowed broken next ? Murder, Rape, Theft, where do we draw the line ?
Amen, brother!
This comment……”…former mayor of a town of 9,000 with zero foreign policy experience a heartbeat away from the presidency.
Wow.. so how does that compare to a guy who has been a US senator about 12 seconds with zero foreign policy experience an ACORN fueled Voter Fraud election away from the presidency.
That’s an introduction I’d like to see on video, ‘Mr Alex pu$$y Jones, meet The Secret Service, say hello while you still have the ability’.
I hope Our Michele has that kind of protection available if needed from now on.

You’re right, RF, that was pretty ugly.
I love how they like to say “Bush’s failed economic policies”. Are these the same policies that brought us out of a recession from the dot com bubble and the WTC attacks with barely a bump?
I just did a search here for the U.S. Census Bureau estimates for 2007. There are nearly 2,300 “places” (cities, townships and boroughs) in Pennsylvania with populations below 9,000. For a better balance, there are over 1,500 places with population between 1,000 and 9,000.
But, all the bitter small town people in Pennsylvania are too busy reading their bibles and shootin’ off their guns to notice The Chosen One is insulting them again.
Speaking of guns. Gov. Palin not only shoots caribou, she eats them when she does! The Dems must be flippin’ at the prospect of her in the White House. I can see them sputtering and seething in anger!
Palin and her family are all great Americans. What a pleasure to see after the week-long string of misfits, egomaniacs and con artists we had to endure.
jdsbc98 is right. Every time Obama speaks its like the entire country is a victim. He sounds like an old country song – couldn’t make ends meet, momma got hit by a train, went to prison, got sick, etc. etc. etc.
Gee nero it’s been a long time since you posted. Do us all a favor and make 2 to 3 times as long before you post again.
And exactly how old are you. Maybe in the 8 to 9 year old range. You have to be, to think that something stupid as what you posted would be worth the time to post. Do yourself and us a favor, GO AWAY
Cafeteria menu’s gonna get meatier with Palin in the WH!
I get the sense this woman has the ability to eviscerate the one doing the attacking, with just a few words.
Governor Palin, Mayor Palin, Board Member Palin, Pro Life Palin.
Community Organizer Obama, Guest Lecturer Obama, BabyDaddy Obama, Senator who spent all his time running for President Obama, allow a new born child to die of neglect Obama.
I am waiting for Reverends Jeremiah Wright-Chicago, Michael Pfleger-Chicago and His Mohammedaness The Minister of the Nation of Islam Calypso Louis Farrakhan-Chicago to weigh in and break the tie. I did try to consult the Reverend Al, Blood on the Diamonds Jew, Sharpton but he and Jesse Jackson-Chicago were recording their latest Justice Brothers album and could not be reached for comment.
What is it with Chicago?
If you ever get a chance to hunt Alaska go–it is fantastic.

Just another bitter American clinging to my God and guns (gas guzzling, global warming pick-up truck too!)
Let’s hope they are as scared as Bill would be coming home at 3am with lipstick on his collar and his fly unzipped.
Let’s also hope this ticket has serious coattails!
Which time?
I would like to see some news of how donations to McCain/Palin campaign over the next few days are shooting through the roof.
I for one, who have refused to donate a dime to any level of the GOP, will now make it a point to donate to these two.
…in the rain no less, driving her pickup truck…
Whenever Hillary decided to wait up.

My friend – if you believe that, you have not spent much time in a “court of law.” Judges and lawyers have removed any semblance of “law” from the equation – they routinely twist, amend, and outright ignore laws every day. Sort of like the Congressional “revise and extend” routine.
Laws are different depending on who you are and who you know, and what flim-flam ambulance chaser lawyers can con a jury into believing.

The Demo Socialist ticket has no Veterans on the ticket. Has Bidet ever discussed his non-service? He is the proper age to be a Nam Vet.
Bidet graduated from HS in 1961. From then until 1968 he had an Educational deferment. He got married in 1969 and got another deferment. In 1973 he was elected to Congress and got himself an Occupational deferment.
C’mon, you can’t possibly be serious. How can you compare Palin to Hillary? Hillary has had obvious skeletons in her closet for decades. Palin, for all we know thus far, doesn’t have any glaringly obvious scandals waiting to be exposed. You might as well be comparing Elvira to, oh, I don’t know, June Cleaver.
I do accept this criticism, however. I shall excise the suffix “-tards” from my vocabulary forthwith.
Even if Palin was only a small-town mayor, and not a Governor, she’d STILL have more executive experience than the Donks’ ticket COMBINED. Besides, it’s easy to cut waste out of a bloated state budget, when you compare it to the shoestring budgets of small towns… but Mayor Palin found a way to do it regardless.
Are we sure that we can’t just let McAmnesty be Veep, and let Palin take the top spot? Please?
ha—notice how Obama once again is playing the Stalinist “airbrush” game, failing to mention her present job: governor of a geographically huge and internationally strategic-located state.
On a side note, as someone whose wife has volunteered to work with the developmentally disabled and as one of those sensitive (NOT) “libtards,” do we think the elevation of a woman with a DS son might be an appropriate occasion to end the juvenile practice of appending “-tard” to various labels in order to underscore our dim view of the intellectual capacity of those whom we so label?

I don’t. This touchy-feeley PC crap is too much. A child with Downs is in no way “retarded”, so what’s the beef? That’s a leftards argument. If someone is “retarded”, they just are – I call’em as i see’um.
Bemused Lib
I just hope you don’t laugh then when you see the word “contard.” It would be kind of hypocritical, you know.
