Sarah Palin in Des Moines whippin' up fear of communism if heaven forbid Obama gets elected...you betcha'.

Partial transcript courtesy of Sam Stein over at the HuffPo but I thought a bit more of this fear fest was worth sharing than they posted there.

See, under a big government, more tax agenda, what you thought was yours would really start belonging to somebody else, to everybody else. If you thought your income, your property, your inventory, your investments were, were yours, they would really collectively belong to everybody. Obama, Barack Obama has an ideological commitment to higher taxes, and I say this based on his record... Higher taxes, more government, misusing the power to tax leads to government moving into the role of some believing that government then has to take care of us. And government kind of moving into the role as the other half of our family, making decisions for us. Now, they do this in other countries where the people are not free. Let us fight for what is right. John McCain and I, we will put our trust in you.

This is pretty rich coming from someone who had no problem "spreadin' the wealth around" from the oil companies to the citizens in Alaska. Complaints of "big government spenders" ring pretty hollow from someone who left her small town $20 million in debt.

And to make this whole thing all the more lovely, at the 2:38 mark in the video, it sounds like one of her supporters yells out "He's a n**ger".

Please.Make.It.Stop. I've had enough of the fear mongering and the race baiting.

I don't know about anyone else, but to me this whole meme they've latched onto with the "spreading the wealth around" comments, and the latest cries of socialism, or communism, or whatever "ism" of the day they want to try to slap onto Obama ... it all just reeks of racism. The dog whistle they're blowing for the folks this hits home with is this: "Obama wants to give your hard-earned tax dollars to all of the lazy Negroes who want to sit home all day and collect welfare while you white people have to go to work every day to support them."

Of course, this is not what Obama is advocating when he promotes tax breaks for the middle class. I truly hope that most of this country has grown as weary of this type of class warfare as I have.

It's pitting one group of working people against another, and against the poor. Divide and conquer. It's all they have left.

Aaaahahahahaaa!
Palins gone "more rogue"!

Most voters don't just have Bush fatigue. They have fear fatigue. We are tired of being fear-baited. Palin should stop already and stick to the issues.
But then, Palin blew the fruit-fly research reference (she didn't know fruit flies are used in autism research and research into the olive oil industry in California) so no one wants to have her discuss issues because neither she nor her advisers seem to do any background before she opens her mouth.

Junior high school biology teaches why fruit flies are broadly useful. Made me not want to travel to be associated with a country that fields VP candidates of that kind of epic stupidity.

You're just NOW not wanting to travel?

and low information...How dare he kneejerk her into this position and how dare she take it...They make me tired!

Standing on the 8 year crumbling pillar of GOP devastation she makes her final case why the people should vote them again.

I never realized how self deluded people could become until after this last 8 years and this election.

Put her fist in the air and howl, "WHITE POWER! JESUS POWER! FIRE POWER!" and just get it over with. She wants to lead a white supremist movement of End-Timer crazies and do the whole persecuted-messiah schtick. That's the last bit of road left for the party to travel. The party is so desperate for any hope to become relevant before 2048 they'll get behind her and risk devolving into a militant Rapturist cult.

Roberto, at least it would be honest. Ooops, honesty and Repukes do not mix.
Just watched Bulworth again this weekend. Try to watch prior to every election to see how everything in that movie is pretty much the same today. The racial aspects of the movie are especially valid.

This whole campaign and its rhetoric are locked in the '50s and '60s.

It's old, tired, and has been completely repudiated over the last 40 years.

How do they warm up their crowds? Do they play "Duck and Cover" videos?

Man...get outta my head! I was just talkin about damn near the same thing to my brother last night.

for us to go back to teaching the kids to get under the desk, cover your heads and wait for the atermath of the atomic bombs.

They didn't tell us the full truth (and we were too young and gullible) that we were preparing to kiss our asses goodbye!

Don't forget the mindset of that era either...women shouldn't speak unless spoken to...they should remain pregnant, and in the kitchen or laundry room at all times. And black folks shouldn't be treated as humans.
But they did have some great music back then...

Yes and that is where the fear really is, that we are listening to that tired close minded bull shit again today

Palin Next Attack on Barack on Home Shopping Network

and I do have great respect for you and all women, and fully support all women's issues and rights....but...having said that...

This woman is one STUPID C**T.

I second that. And I am a woman and hate the C word. But in her case, she totally deserves that title and then some. She is a national embarrassement.

why certain slurs came to be.

Palin is one of those people.

After living in Glasgow where the C-bomb is dropped like "hello" in conversations, I think I have lost my aversion to saying it. It's dropped from my mouth a few times regarding La Palin.

Its a bit late for Palin to argue that she and McCain are fiscally Conservative. Just look at the spending the Bush Administration has done and the deficits and national debt he has run up. What Hugo Chavez is true. The Bush Administration and pretty McCain/Palin are even more further to the left than he is on economic matters.

over 75% of our entire national debt was run up by presidents named bush and reagan

also, why does this site need a strong password? what a pain!

We have a better understanding of security than the fight-em-over-there crowd.

who just happens to spend $20,000 of other peoples' money on makeup.

See, there are people out there who try to use things like logic and facts to try to, you know, convince you about things. But me, and Todd, and the good people of Alaska, and in all the small towns all over America, we know better, don't we? . . .

When a nominee for Vice President of the United States talks like this, all I can say is God save the USA.

Democrats should be using this Communism Redux to mock the Party of fear. Point out how the Repugs have contempt for people. How they contrive ways to make people afraid of their own shadows. This is nothing new. Communists, hippies (remember when hippies were scary? ha!) gays, blacks, immigrants, and best of all, Arab terrorists. Democrats have always been about courage and fortitude in the face of crisis. Cowards vote Republican.

But it sounded like a young male of possibly a a female yelled the n word. And she said nothing. You can see she winces slightly, and yet she says nothing. nice. And she want's to be Queen Sarah.
There's a storm brewin. And it's gonna hit on Tuesday. Nov 4th.

She hesitates briefly before going on so she clearly heard what was said. You also see the blond woman on the left side of the frame smile nervously when it registers in her little mind. Don't hold your breath for palin or mcshame to repudiate any of this.

Yes, at first she smiles, then slowly it fades. You can see what is happening in her "brain".Wow. She's a quick one.Eh! par for the course I suppose. I wonder if the media will run this? I betcha Anderson Cooper does. Along with KO and Rachel. I know I'll get questioned for saying AC. But I think he'll do it.

see this dailykos diary, but this has been debunked. apparently what the woman was saying is "redistributor" - this is confirmed by someone in attendance at the rally.

we are not the right and shouldn't be pulling drudge-style hysterics until we know for sure what the facts are.

And the crown was just saying boo-urns

we don't need to sink to that level when they do.

No matter who wins I believe there will be riots. If they steal it again we won't sit there and twiddle our thumbs, if Obama wins they have stirred up their crowd so much you know there will be riots and I fear for those of color in our country. They keep stirring up the racism and hate in this country. It is going to get ugly. People are out buying guns at an alarming rate because everyone can feel it. Our local news had a report on the increasing sale of weapons just last night.

The Repukes are so predictable! Bringing out the old Commie threat is so 50/60's and only plays to the base. It won't have any effect on any right thinking person leaning towards Obama.

is a term associated w/it. I doubt these people really know what a Socialist is.

This is just pathetic!

If that's the best she can come up with.... just go away and start worrying about the implications of Ted Stevens' court case.

Palin camp feels they'd be doing much better if they'd just let Palin be Palin. Riiiiight.

This lying bitch has no idea how aggravating she sounds. Palin reminds me of the proverbial idiot on the morning train ride to downtown Chicago who is loud and obnoxious, yet truly believes everyone listening(who doesn't have an ipod) is totally into their bullshit conversation.

It's bad enough what she says is pure garbage, but that shrill voice and offesnive accent just make me ill...I'll take 10 Fran Dreshers over Palin's voice any day...

I get "Stick it to the n.....r" Palin heard it too. She raises her voice to be sure she's overpowering whatever comes out of the mouths of her minions next. Yes, please make it stop.

Does she get to appoint the next senator if Stevens wins and has to resign? As Governor can she then appoint herself to take his place?

We'll be seeing her again. If she can stay out of jail she'll be haunting us for the next 30 years.

no doubt! Oh she heard it alright. We all are hearing it Palin.

Oh, "redistributor". We've become anxious to hear what we know is there.

AND Palin, by recent legislation, cannot appoint anyone to fill Stevens seat if he wins and has to resign. She has to call a special election.

The McLame camp is scared. They know Obama's tax plan is superior to theirs so they go with the "spread the wealth" meme even though it is a lie to try to score cheap political points. The only people that will buy this BS is their moron base of 20%ers. It's pretty much over for this weak ticket, crappy fear is all they got left.

...what the Queers are doing to the soil?
Look at the soil around Des Moines, Stuart. You can't build on it, you
can't grow anything in it. The government says it's due to poor farming.
But I know what's really going on, Stuart. I know it's the queers.
They're in it with the aliens. They're building landing strips for gay
Martians. I swear to God.

Say it ain't so!
Next thing ya know, cats and dogs will be living together!

Ya, that sounds like change. I can't wait til the election is over and she attempts to interact with the MSM without the McCain campaign running interference for her.

We need to free the people of Sweeden!

That cracked me up x. Great way to start my day.Laughing. Thanks again.:)

Here is the real reality... Link

It is the same as I posted several days ago.

I only reprise it for those that may not have seen it.

Like this?

Why didn't she say "Thanks but no thanks" for the clothes?

$3,589 for 1000 chocolate elephants? Gotta love those fiscal conservatives. lol

Joe McCarthy and J Edgar Hoover would be proud of Sarah Palin...

Instead of discussing how she and the geezer would make America a better place, she pulls out the 'commie card'.

And what is so bad about Sweden? They have top notch health care and educational systems. The righty wing seems proud that our schools are underfunded.
We pour trillions of dollars into the military and machines designed to kill people- but not into programs that would help American people. Isn't that how the Soviet union bankrupted itself?

Palin and Hoover could be shopping buddies. I'm sure Hoover would have loved to spend upwards of $150,000 on dresses and skirts.

After 4 years of an Obama administration, when their taxes have gone down, we've pulled out troops out of harm's way, everyone can get affordable health care and no "commies" have shown up on their doorsteps will they admit they were wrong? Or even be grateful that our country is turning around? Will they finally admit that Palin was a vacuous idiot and would have just continued to do massive injury to our country?

Probably not. Scumbags.

This Joe the Plumber guy is more than we suspected. Today he will be on the campaign trail for McCain. He will be speaking at several places either with or for McCain.

He's a McCain shill. I'd have to say he's exactly what we suspected.

To have his life under the microscope.

True. If he had he probably would have paid his tax bill before setting himself up as an expert on economic theory.

The fact that he hasn't paid his taxes just makes him more of a "maverick," sticking it to the unjust financial system!

You go, Joe! Taxes and civic responsibility are for pussies! Me first, country second!

All they have is hatred and fear.

My favorite part was the Monopoly on the government part. What the F?

Let's re-visit this. Sarah Palin types didn't seem to have a problem with the Monopoly on the government when it was all Repugs. NOW it's not a good idea? Besides....where is the Liberal Democratic Supreme Court? They've fixed that one up so good that it's going to take a LONG time to fix it back, what with Alito, Roberts, Thomas and Scalia all being relatively young...we are really screwed there.

Oh well, off to my job, which has cut staffing hours because our stock is in the tank and our former CEO left to spend some time with his family, after mismanaging our company for the last 3 years. (I work for a major nationwide pharmacy chain.)

I cant help but wonder what will become of these pathetic people in the future. Obama will win, of that I am certain of, and the right wing will return to doing what they did under Clinton. Unless something happens within the next few years to radically change the Republican party, the next republican president could be even worse than Jr. At DKos
they have a sugestion that the GOOP (sorry the G.O.P) will fracture from this election and another party system may come into being. It's possible, it has happened in history, the Republicans came about after the disintegration of the old Whig party, but only time will tell. If however the wingnuts retain their hold on the GOOP (sorry again, the G.O.P), we can expect them to tone down their crazy talk somewhat in order to lie as much as possible about Obama's presidency, to once again try and convince people that up is down and that black is white and that only they really care about America. They are all one-trick ponies and unfortunatly, people are gullible as hell.

The fight doesnt end with the defeat of the republicants, it wont end until the extremists are outed for what they are and marginalized again. If we cant change the Republican party for the good, then the republicants now in control will only do all of this to the country again as soon as they are handed power.

I don't think they'll be tryin' too hard on the "black is white" part. They've got too many years invested in the "white is right" meme.

Some kinda crazy stuff goin on?

With 7 days left to go and every indicator pointing to an Obama landslide as well as the potential (probability now) of the Dems taking control of Congress, the GOP is realizing a level of desperation not seen for the past 8 years.

We will discover precisely how much blackmail has gone on in Congress due to Bush's infamous wiretapping of political enemies once he leaves office. This is the only reason why Dems were silenced following the 06 midterms and everyone knows it now.

This country has had enough of 8 years of these assclowns running our government and the people will be taking back that control 7 days from today.

When you resort to calling someone a commie, you know that the end is near.

Every bully on the planet knows this and has probably done this. You try calling your foe everything in the book and when nothing is working, you use your last resort: The Commie meme.

Frankly, Stupid Sarah, the Secessionist, doesn't even know what a commie is - just like everything else she doesn't know but it certainly doesn't stop this moron from opening her mouth and expounding on it - ultimately, leading everyone to the recognition that she's not even a pig in lipstick, she's a clown in lipstick.

:0

And I'm scared of clowns.

When is the scary whore going to be dragged off the road.

some racist bitch screams "And hes a N*gger!!"

see above and dailykos for more. she says "redistributor".

still, sarah palin is completely unqualified to be vp...let's stay on message and not sink to their level.

redistributor? you can NOT be serious!!!

it's on the rec list at daily kos

I still think it's a steaming pile of horse-shit!
But I'll check it out and get back to ya! ;)

i'm not saying there aren't racists that support mccain/palin. i live in nc and see it firsthand. i just think we need to be better than them.
at all times.

We MUST remain above the fray...or whatever it's called.

Where abouts?
I'm from Charlotte.

in the infamous appalachia region where obama supposedly has a rough time getting support.

asheville itself is big time for obama. the surrounding areas are pretty well white conservative democrats. still i see about as many obama signs as i do mccain signs. early voted the other day and the line was clearly more obama voters than otherwise...

I got tons of relatives in that area...
One of 'em owns Iwanna...bet she's voting for McSpain/Plain.

are the leaves turning yet?
I'm livin waaaay at bottom of Florida now...we have 3 seasons....hot. hotter'n hell, and tourist.

Although...tourist season has yet to arrive...which is why I've been laid off, and collecting unemployment.

but last night we got our first snow. about an inch or two (i'm at a bit higher altitude than asheville itself). actually just looked outside and it's still snowing. not sticking to the roads but all over the ground.

my mom lives in florida (venice, south of tampa). always nice to visit at christmas and get to wear shorts and t-shirt.

hopefully, we'll get some tourons down here soon, so I can get back to work...

yeah...when you snowbirds come down in winter dressed like that, we're all bundled up like it's freezin, lol!

I find it rather difficult to believe that someone from a crowd would yell out a five-syllable word during a political rally. It doesn't fit into the mode of mod mentality.

.. it is highly unlikely a moron at a Palin rally could have the mental fortitude to conjugate a word like "re-distributor."

In fact, I don't particularly care what the knuckle draggers at the GOP freak show yell. But I must say, that there is a biiiiiiiiiiig difference between "n*gger" and "re-distributor"

Chances are the knuckle dragger is more acquainted with the racial slur than with the economic term. And after the years of abuse and shit I have been subjected by right wingers, I don't give enough of a shit about their feelings to give them the benefit of the doubt...

LOL

No, seriously. Go to the DKos post.

Redistributor it is....

you know how it is, with the traditional media and their "equivalency" problem. wingnuts say we're pinko muslim terrorist america-hating baby killers (when it's a lie), we call them out for racism (when it really is evident), and somehow to the media that's "equal".

not saying we shouldn't call them out, but only when it really happens. the whole ashley todd thing goes a long way to prove that when you don't wait for the facts to come out, you end up looking ridiculous.

Couldn't agree more.

.... a feller from Nazareth named Jesus.

Which sort of lends credibility to the assumption that when Jesus returns (not that I am religious but I always find myth about a Jewish zombie entertaining), he will most likely be nailed back to the cross by a devout Christian.

The Republicans have *nothing* to offer, except a continuation of Bush's abysmal policies, so what do they do? They call us a bunch of commies!
How adult, how original...
And ridiculing Sweden is quite odd, given that they have top notch educational and health care programs- One would think the Republicans were proud of the fact our health and educational systems were inferior..

I think that we should aspire to be a little more like Sweden...and other European countries...
And the GOP is frothing at the mouth, screaming socialism....well...seems to me that unchecked capitalism has betrayed the American citizenry.

*Books were burned, knowledge was lost, and freethinkers were persecuted plunging the entire region into a dark ages* -Fallin`s dream for America!!

Back in Alaska, Palin tried to get a librarian fired because the said librarian refused to remove some books, the governor found “offensive” from the library! How anti-knowledge can one get?
- from Palin's religious convictions, her silly lies/exagerations about her record and experience, to claims that Obama wants to raise taxes on everybody, to every flip-flop about the economy and the bailout (and pretty much everything else), to "troopergate", to "voting against funding troops", etc., etc. etc. - and there you will find the Principles of Incompetence in action.

I`m going to tricker treat wearing a Sarah Insane Pallin mask………I can`t think of anything more FRIGHTENING-
WELL MAYBE THERE IS ONE THING--HER IN THE WHITE HOUSE
-------SCARY
Obama supporters--YOU ROCK!!
Yahoooooooooooooooooooo!!
Obama/Biden all the wayyyyyyyyyy.
Evil Overlords. This world is slowly changing from Mine to Ours...

NEWS FLASH-When Sara Palin was asked how she would trim the federal budget, she replied, "I'd get rid of things that the we simply don't need-- like, you know, Science.'

I cannot stand listening to Palin speak more than 30 seconds at a time. I pity those fellow C&Lers who watched the entire six minutes and 34 seconds!

Yet god forbid, if tax dollars go to help **AMERICAN** families, they blow a gasket!
We have poured billions of tax dollars into Iraq, and for what?
A war based on imaginary WMD.?
Republicans have stone walled any attempt to track down the missing money- all taxpayer paid by the way. And these bastards claim to stand for fiscal responsibility?

I really wish Obama would bring up that detail, as an example of how Republicans are fiscally clueless.

That will be included in his 30 minute spot tomorrow night...

...the war in Iraq was based on stealing their oil and building permanent military bases.

The WMD lies were just confabulations to get the already scr'red Mur'kins (you rememebr 9/11, no?) to cheer while they loaded our sons and daughters onto the troop-ships and planes.

The "missing money" can be found in the pockets of Cheney and his Halliburton, KBR and oil company buds, along with Blackwater, and the CEO's of all kinds of related companies.

On a more serious note...
I watched the movie "Clue" over the weekend...and the butler said several times, that "communism is a red herring".
So...yeah.
Take THAT GOP!
IN. YOUR. FACE.

As someone who may have stupidly tried to study the aspects of Cold War from the end of WW2 until the 1980s...

The fight against Communism is/was a red herring. It was nothing more than our current cry on the wars on Drugs and Terrorism = funnel money into the military industrial complex.

Didn't someone warn us about that very thing...oh I dunno...say, about 45-50 years ago?

"[War] is dressed into speeches about patriotism, love of country, and "we must all put our shoulders to the wheel," but the profits jump and leap and skyrocket — and are safely pocketed." — Smedley Butler, retired as a Major General of the U.S. Marine Corps in 1931 and was awarded two congressional medals of honor and the distinguished service medal.

(It's my signature for my personal email account)

Before I forget again... Great movie. I watch it at least once a year.

Leslie Ann Warren (Miss Scarlet) has never looked hotter and Collen Camp (Yvette) was simply yummy. I developed my French Maid fetish because of that movie.

I must admit...I'd never heard that particular quote...
I was referring to some a bit more recently that 77 years ago.
Can't remember who, or exactly when...but the words "military industrial complex" were used I think for the first time.
But again...I could be mistook.

That probably was Smedley Butler too. He had this habit of pointing to his medals and saying he earned that fighting a war for Standard Oil, he won another medal fighting a war for Morgan Stanley etc.

)O(

He warned about the "Military, industrial, congressional complex"

http://coursesa.matrix.msu.edu/~hst306/docume...

The "congressional" part is often left out, but is somehow the most important part, since congress holds the purse and the power of transferring our hard earned tax dollars to the industrial complex.

The funny thing, the "industrial complex" are all die-hard GOP supporters. You know the people who hate big government, but whose only raison d'etre is to live as a parasite of the proverbial public tit.

That sounds like President Eisenhower.

His comments were around 1958, while Smedley Butler's was about 70 years ago.

)O(

That's who I thought said it...but wasn't sure...

I saw that the Soviets won the Cold War. We spent trillions of dollars on weapons while our social and educational infrastructures collapsed.

They're waiting for us to run out of money this time.
Great.

Adam Smith writes in The Wealth of Nations:

It is not very unreasonable that the rich should contribute to the public expense, not only in proportion to their revenue, but something more than in that proportion.

What's Palin's beef with the Patron Saint of Capitalism? I think we oughta peek in her garage and see what kind of flag she's got tacked up on the wall.

There's an AIP flag, a confederate battle flag, and a possibly a nazi flag...

the symbol of the AIP proudly on her lapel - a polar bear.

then doled out checks to every man, woman and child

SHE IS A FUCKING COMMIE BASTARD

STONE HER

I've pointed that out a couple of times these past few weeks. I'd really like to see some reporter question Miss Sarah about the finer points separating capitalism, socialism, communism, and maybe
feudalism ('cause that'e where the Rpugs want to take us).

That'd be a hoot to hear her try to answer....

I keep saying - the 'conspiracy theorist' that I am - that if/when McCain gets into office, it'll be shortly (one month, two?) when he decides (or has it decided for him) that the job is just 'too stressful for him'...and he'll resign.
Then you-know-who will take over. I am driving a family member out of their mind by talking about where I don't care if Palin wears gold-plated underwear- I just don't want the "Rapture nut" - or her 'assistant' hubby anywhere NEAR the 'football', sports fans that they are.

of Erie, PA... I hope all the nuts stay at home so as to not make us all look bad.

we alllll got rich from the deregulation of the financial markets, and the introduction of 401K plans and such.

So...it's all good...right? Huh?...Hello?

What they're doing with their tax cuts is "spreading the wealth" as well, it's just all going up instead of going down and spreading out. I don't think that most of these Republican voters are smart enough or else they are to blinded by their hatred to realize that we already live under a socialist system, it's just that we only get the bad parts of it. Like when the tax payers foot the bill for 60% of research & development costs for pharmaceutical companies and then they shove a patent on the end result and THEY keep all of the profits. Same with just about any other industry.

All I hear when she talks is "Dur dur dur".

And anyone who has lived through the last 8 years, not to mention the last 8 months, and can still vote for this village idiot and her geriatric partner is dead from the neck up.

Actually, I think the bill for her make up is close to $60K by now.

Basically, the GOP has spent almost 1 quarter million dollars in dressing and putting lipstick on this pig.

Which is basically more than the budget allocated for the fruit fly research. That research is supposed to among other things help prevent loses in certain crops, so there is a clear benefit for mankind and our economy from it. I fail to see what the value proposition of Sarah Palin is regarding her wardrobe, so it takes a set of brass balls by an uneducated beauty queen prick to blabber about basic research and its budgeting.

... it will be wearing skirts, heels and lipstick. Oh, and wrapped in a flag, of course.

If it weren't for her admittedly telegenic looks, Moosegirl would be an even bigger joke/insult.

Christopher Hitchens says she's a dangerous moron. Incurious, vapid, mediocre.

Send her back to the frozen north.

the fascism arrived quite a while ago. We've just not been paying attention.

If it had...we wouldn't be discussing it in here.
And likely...we'd all either be dead, or in prison.

Let me see....

Pervasive use of nationalistic symbols by right wing politicians to squash dissent: check.
Collusion of state and corporations to further corporate over individual interests/rights: check.
Pervasive use of slogans like "united we stand divided we fall" (guess what the fascio used by Mussolini and Franco was the pictorial representation for?): check.
Squashing individual freedoms in the name of personal security?: check.
Installment by dubious democratic process of the grandkid of an asshole who tried to over throw the US government in favor of a fascist plot (Prescott Bush): Check.
Divide and conquer as the MO of the state and predominant political party? Check

It looks like fascism, it quacks like fascism, it acts like fascism. Just because you can post in a blog doesn't mean it ain't fascism.

I'm really surprised they keep using this "joe the plummer" line, since joe wasn't joe, he wasn't even a registered licensed plummer, he is delinquent on back taxes, and he has probably as much chance of owning his own business as I do of becoming a medical docter at my ripe old age.

These neocon/fascist candidates have no shame. This bitch is doing more to assure division in this country than the slime balls that rule the conservative air waves. Shame on her..and shame on all of them.

"Country first"...my ass!! More typical "me first" shit from these greedy repug types.

This is getting ridiculous. Palin and McCain seem so engrossed in whipping up fear about Obama, it sounds as if I am listening to Joe McCarthy back in the 1950s. This is truly disconcerting. That period in our history almost tore this country completely apart. Fear, paranoia, and suspicion were running rampant. Don't let this happen again. If their motto is "Country First", then please run your campaign that way. It sounds as if you want to tear us apart rather than have us united as in United States.

Didn't Sarah Palin "spread the wealth around" to Alaskans?

Wasn't this the main reason for her popularity in Alaska?

Palin explains the windfall profits tax that she imposed on the oil industry in Alaska as a mechanism for ensuring that Alaskans “share in the wealth” generated by oil companies:

"And Alaska—we’re set up, unlike other states in the union, where it’s COLLECTIVELY Alaskans own the resources. So we share in the wealth when the development of these resources occurs."

Collectively, eh? Isn't that one of them commie words?

Haha. Commies? Man, they really are living in the fucking past.

LOL! These insane Chrostofascists are living in the 1960's. What utterly insane cultists.

if they WERE living in the (early) sixties, they would have been enjoying a time of prosperity. Of course that all disappeared as the seventies approached.

was at its most prosperous? When the tax rate for the wealthy was at the ninety percentile. It was the Golden Era of the Twentieth Century.

It isn't just that Palin is a complete unedumacated idiot, with a degree from but*-f*ck University of Idaho, it's that her supporters are among the most unintelligent people breathing oxygen.

Talk about shooting oneself in the foot. These people haven't a clue.

.

SPREADING THE WEALTH AROUND...
... STIMULUS CHECK, ANYONE?

Q U E S T I O N:
Did y'all notice how Sarah reigned in the RACIST epitaph...
... er, stumbled her way through NOT saying anything in recognition to RACISM, thus granting the RACIST comment permissibility to exist?
