where are the feminists??

Silly girl, this is the new politics happening around you. A long time ago (prior to 1900) a presidential candidate didn't campaign. Teddy Roosevelt changed that. Their people campaigned for them. Then a candidate had to be a populist. By the 1960s JFK showed that you needed to have a book out there (whether you wrote it or not) to demonstrate your ability with words. Today it is all about the media (TV, radio, Twitter, books still, and print journalism) Palin isn't the first but she has done the most as of now. The Obama Corps was all over the Internet during the election, Huckabee has his own show, the Clintons filmed a documentary about themselves in 1992 before they had even won the election (The War Room). The Obama's used the Internet to hurt people rather than just tell people about themselves. Jerome Corsi was on a Chicago radio station talking about Obama's lack of a birth certificate (the charges made by the Hillary supporters) and the call in switch board melted down from angry calls from all over the country. It seems the Obama campaign sent out a twitter and email to call the station. It was also found a woman had written a letter to an Oregon newspaper praising the healthcare plan, the same letter showed up in a New York paper, a Florida paper, a Texas paper, and even a Tokyo paper. The same name but a different address each time. It was traced back to the basement of the White House and its computer servers.
I know this sounds like it has become about Obama, but the charges you make against her could more easily apply to him. So is Barry "whoring"? Originally Posted by john_galt

I believe that that applies to everyone that behaves like that, from politicians to every attention starved jersey shore clone posting pictures on facebook. Stop trying to put words in my mouth because you cannot pick a fight. And I'm still not clear on why people think I'm a liberal? Still? Really? Do none of you actually read a single word?

All right. Enough of this BS! Both MsElena and Sillygirl have accused others of putting words in their mouths. Well, I have this to say about that:

I have something I would much rather put in their mouths than words. God, intelligent women are HOT! Gotta see you both, soon.

Ok, you may now go back to arguing amongst yourselves.

I never accused you of being a liberal.

How about Oprah?

This thread has gotten boring now.

I do have to say that this, with a couple of exceptions, has been one of the best conversations on this site.
Galt and Deacon........................ .....I am thinking you are running buddies and can see you guys in galt's trailer or pickup very vividly in my imagination. I have a strong suspicion that you might be one and the same person?

Ok I want to apologize for calling you both stupid twats. It is not an appropriate description.

I am now going with ignorant douche' bags.

You two are the kind of people that sit down next to someone on a bar stool and the person has to chug the drink and leave.
"Galt and Deacon........................ .....I am thinking you are running buddies and can see you guys in galt's trailer or pickup very vividly in my imagination"....

....with the pickup truck outside, gun rack, sitting outside with banjo and guitar, playing "Deliverance"....

"You two are the kind of people that sit down next to someone on a bar stool and the person has to chug the drink and leave."

....you go to the bar to have a quiet beer, and the idiot next to you strikes up conversation about something that doesn't mean shit to anyone but them...you try to shut them up but they just keep going...and going...makes you want to go home cause now you miss your wifes nagging.....that sounds right on catnipdipper.

So much for Cheaper's imagination; I don't own a truck, I don't live in a trailer, I don't drink, and I don't frequent bars. Cheaper, I suggest you ask for a refund.

Not trying to tactless but Elena you have said very little about why you think Palin is ignorant. You cite a couple of facts but those facts by themselves (being Mayor and Governor) would tend to disprove your assumptions. An ignorant person could not be elected to office if they were right. Since you brought up Obama let's look at his qualifications in 2008.
Executive experience: Palin-6 years as Mayor, 2 years as Governor, Chairperson of the Alaska Gas and Oil Board.
Obama-no executive experience.
Education: Palin-B.A. in Journalism, Elaborate. Did she earn this at Yale? Harvard? MIT? In what way does this qualify her to be president? Wouldn't something like a law degree be more useful?
Obama-B.A. in Political Science, J.D. in Law.
Work experience: Palin-Sportscaster TV, sportsreporter newspaper, small business personDidn't she gut fish? with husband, city councilperson. Don't forget her Fox News job and her reality show! Plus, her daughter was on Dancing with the Stars!
Obama-1 year with Business International Corp. interviewing businesspeople and creating reports, 1 year with New York Public Interest Research Group, 3 years as a community activist for Developing Communities Project in Chicago, Law school instructor and lecturer, community activist again, State Senator 7 years, US Senator announced his plans to run for president 163 days after taking office. Afterwards missed 91% of the votes in the Senate.
Family: Palin-Husband Todd married in 1988, two sisters, one brother, five children, one grandchild. Father was a teacher and coach, mother was a secretary. Was she married by a witchdoctor or did that come later? Normally, I'd question what her family has to do with her being qualified or ignorant...but her knocked-up daughter demonstrates that Sarah can't even secure the borders of her own daughter! LOL!
Obama-Wife Michelle Robinson married in 1992 by Reverend Wright, six half siblings from three other wives of father, two daughters, father was socialist government operative in Kenya, married to African woman invalidated marriage to Ann Dunham due to bigamy, Ann Dunham anthropologist, step father Lolo Soetoro of Indonesia, half sister by step father.
Yes, I know it is a lot of information but the point is what in all that suggests ignorance? Your ignorance? Well, that would mostly be because you glossed over the basics of where Sarah Palind got her degree and what grades she got so you could rant about Obama's half siblings. Sarah's ignorance flows out of her mouth and from her tiny Twitter like sewage. You see I have an opinion as well but it is built on a number of books and other sources of information. What newspapers do you read, Sarah?
So I go back to my original question; what makes you think she is ignorant. I have heard the words that she has spoken. Please be specific (resigning from a position hardly shows ignorance). Originally Posted by john_galt

Deacon needs to learn how to quote.

Liberal? maybe/maybe not. But one thing for certain; you are not fanatic conservative because you do not see the conservative point of view as blindly as they do.

We should try to understand Sara; we don't have to like her.

The ultra conservative is many times an ultraconservative religious person as well (Sara P. is an Assembly of God, and she received a lot of voter support from the A of G church, and related churches).

The ultra right groups have made a big push to take over the Republican Party: case in point, the Kansas Caucus groups (many church groups sent members to the caucus meetings and because few attended they took control) were taken over to the point that the party changed and many of the older, and wiser, Republican leaders left the party to become Democrats. With the loss of the old time center position Republican (and older Ronald R. type Republicans) the party swung further to the right.

It is that ultra right portion of the Republican Party that Sara P is trying to keep happy for the next election. She has succeeded to a large part, and her work is not yet over. Even if she does not (I don't think she has a chance, and I don't think she believes she has a chance.) of getting the nomination; she will already have won a place for a lifetime bigger future job in the R. party. Why, because she will have helped hold a large number of votes for the Republicans. The backing and financial support that she has is not just for her - but to defeat Obama.

Will that block of votes, by itself, win an election? NO! However, that conservative block is needed to be combined with the rest of the R. Party to help it win a political position.

In the same way, one can not doubt that the black vote helped to put Obama in office: along with the great number of Democrats that just did not like the war, any war, regardless of the need to respond after 9-11.

Don't count Sara P. out of the picture. She is out beating the bushes, recruiting volunteer troops for the next election, whether she is the nominee or not. Those volunteers have already begun the political work with a missionary zeal that no amount of money can buy. There is a hatred in this land by many for Obama, and the work to make him a one term president began before he took office.

The ultra conservative mind is just as frightening as the communist ultra left mind. In the end, neither one is likely to last long as a single governing body. Obama is about as far left as this country has ever swung; because of his positions, he will not last long: the conservative right will work very hard to see that he does not. The Republican Party is not the party of the rich, and it never was - regardless of the propaganda of the Democratic party.

That is why the Republican Party needs Sara; she is needed to raise hell, and recruit, organize, and motivate the ordinary people, the socially inferior, and the uncouth masses.

She is the ultimate rabble rouser!

Longer, you must really hate yourself. You go and spend all of this time trying to belittle someone who has done nothing to you. Does it make you feel better? Does it make you feel manly that a woman like Sarah Palin, who has accomplished more than you have, can be called some pretty nasty names by you. For the record, as this should be obvious even to you, I was talking about both Obama and Palin in 2008. There was no Fox news job, no dancing with the stars, no time at the White House. Are you really that obtuse? I thought it was an act but I'm really starting to believe that you are as you present yourself.

Sometimes running a small business means washing the glasses and taking out the trash but I guess you won't know that. So ex sailor and an hourly worker I'm guessing. Am I right about you Longer?
Does it matter where someone gets their degree? Clinton matriculated at Oxford but never finished. Gore almost got thrown out of seminary school for cheating. Truman never went to college. So Longer, let us hear you throw some hate at good old Harry just to be consistent.

Longer, I think Sarah Palin got her degree at the University of Idaho, after attending several other colleges.

Obviously, only Ivy League educated people are qualified to lead the country. Spoken like a true elitist.

I'm not supporting Sarah Palin for President, but I'm damn tired of where all these Ivy Leaguers have led us. But I'm a common guy, not one of the elite. So what do I know?

I guess we'll never know her grades.
I guess we'll never know why she transferred so much.
I guess we'll never know why she was in Kenya...I mean Hawaii.
I guess we'll never know how she paid for it.

Hey wait...could Sarah have been one of those girls that is just doing (whatever) to pay her way through college? There are strip clubs near all of those places! The more I think about it...it sounds plausible.

I have registered at the University of North Florida, University of Florida, Three Rivers College (CT), Metropolitan Colleges of Kansas City, Park University, and KU starting in 1987. Is that a problem?

Pay attention ladies; if a young woman DID work her way through college the way Longer suggests then he views her as a lesser person. A peek inside the demented mind of Longer, free of charge. He doesn't like you ladies or respect you.

Of course that is only my opinion.
