More Quote of the Day Honorable Mentions, Part 11

*
Flopping Aces:
"Then you have the AP hiring 11 fact checkers to comb through her book. Or Newsweek using a photo of Sarah in running shorts, taken for Runners World magazine, for it’s cover in an obvious attempt to minimize her. And last but not least, a book review of her book by the Washington Post written by someone who didn’t read her book... The lengths the left is going to drag Sarah through the mud just proves how very scared they are."
Melissa Clouthier:
"Oprah doesn’t ask Sarah Palin substantive questions. Oprah asks Oprah questions–about Levi coming to Thanksgiving, about her marriage, etc... Rush’s interview, in contrast... asked her substantive policy questions. Guess what? She didn’t stumble. She flowed. It was great to listen to, really, and heartening. Rush asked her questions on everything from national security, foreign policy, oil exploration, health care and illegal immigration. Not one stutter. Not one hiccup. She was flawless. It wasn’t just her form. Her substance was pure, unapologetic small-government conservative. She... sends a chill down the spines of Democrats and Republican establishment types. They are right to fear her. She is formidable."
Emmett Tyrrell:
"Put the politician who sees China's economic development as 'an accomplishment unparalleled in human history' next to the politician who notes that her state borders Russia (and Canada, too), thus giving its governor occasion for at least some foreign policy knowledge... Is there a difference in their qualifications? Well, yes, the pulchritudinous Ms. Palin in 2008 had more executive experience than Mr. Obama, having been both a small-town mayor and a governor. In fact, as President Obama comes up on his first year in office, former Gov. Palin still has more executive experience. Why is no one laughing?"
The Anchoress:
"Love Sarah Palin or not, one has to admit the press is so undone by her that they are both aggressive and passive-aggressive in their hate, and they betray themselves continually in all sorts of ways. They betray their snobbism; they betray their spitefulness, and most emphatically, they betray the fact that our “fourth estate” is populated mostly by perpetual adolescents."
Gay Patriot:
"It’s amusing to watch Democrats and associated leftists get worked up into a lather at there mere mention of Sarah Palin’s name. We’ve got critics bringing her up in the comment sections of posts which don’t even mention that charismatic and accomplished woman. And Democratic National Committee (DNC) operatives have gone into overdrive to lambaste the woman who did more to reform her state in her first two years as Governor than Obama did to reform his in twelve years serving in its state senate or as the state’s U.S. Senator. Guess attacking Sarah Palin is a lot easier than defending Obama’s policies."
Jackie Seals:
"I just stood in line eagerly waiting for Sarah Palin to arrive. I then see Norah O’Donnell... Seconds later I met her...One of the many faces of liberal media bias.... She had me read my shirt and then proceeded to ask me 'Did you know Sarah Palin supported the bailout?' To be 100% honest I was like, are you kidding me? She is trying to use my shirt against me.... Norah also claims I told her I voted (on her twitter). That is not true. She never asked my age or if I voted. I’m 17 I couldn’t have voted…and I don’t live in an ACORN district so I didn’t have a chance to even register illegally."
The Frontiersman:
"What the Republican Party should be doing, if it hopes to take advantage of the wounds Democrats are suffering, is embrace Sarah Palin. She’s a vote-getter. She draws a crowd wherever she goes. She speaks the language of people who feel like they aren’t being heard. And that’s no small part of this nation’s people — on either side of the political fence."
Suzanne Fields:
"Harry Truman was urged to resign no sooner than he was sworn in to make room for 'somebody smart.' Ronald Reagan was widely regarded by the elites as an 'amiable dunce.' The tea party crowds are looking for a populist leader who shows a little faith in the decency of the little people and the democratic processes, whom Andrew Jackson called 'the humble members of society -- the farmers, mechanics and laborers,' who want the obstacles removed that keep them from realizing their abilities. Matthew Continetti... says the time is ripe for a politician with imagination to separate the good populism of free enterprise from the bad populism of loony theories. Palin, he writes, can give voice to those millions who don't want government aggrandizing the powerful and risking fiscal imbalances but 'who do want public policies that create the conditions for a general prosperity.' Sarah Palin is poised to move on. Where she goes and how she gets there will determine who follows."
David Limbaugh:
"It seems the mainstream media's favorite pastime is to ridicule Sarah Palin. Of all the screeds I've read, I don't think any are snarkier than The Washington Post's Sally Quinn's 'On Faith' blog post 'Sarah Palin's rogue Christianity.' Do we need further proof of the secular orientation of our dominant media culture than the fact that Quinn, an avowed atheist, pens the Post's 'On Faith' blog? That would be like featuring a column by Fidel Castro on free enterprise and individual liberties."
Kathryn Ciano:
"[David] Frum told 'The News Hour with Jim Lehrer' Nov. 18 that '[Palin] is a woman who has got into a position of leadership by sending very powerful sexual signals. And we see that in the way that men like her much more than women do'... Frum wants to inject Palin’s public persona with a Salem witch trial mentality. She must be a witch, your honor; she came to seduce me in my dreams... Insecure men have long objectified the women around them... Frum’s claim that Palin has forced sexuality on us reflects his own uncreative 'scholarship'. This cheap attack is the punditry equivalent of a schoolboy dipping a compatriette’s pigtail in ink. It’s unnecessary. It’s weak."
Roger Stone:
"The continued attacks on Sarah Palin by campaign Aides to Senator John McCain are almost beyond belief... Most outrageous is an attack on Palin by early McCain Advisor, John Weaver who said 'Sarah Palin reminds me of Jimmy Stewart in the movie Harvey, complete with imaginary conversations,' Weaver told the Politico... This is the same John Weaver who burned through $18 million of McCain campaign cash, leaving the campaign broke before votes were cast in the first Primary... Sarah Palin stands head and shoulders above the pathetic losers in the McCain camp who have turned attacking Palin into a cottage industry."
Pamela Geller:
"What a blessing this great American woman is. She is a blessing to Obama's curse. Her position on Israel counters Obama's anti-semitic policy of ethnically cleansing Israel of the Jewish people... Palin supports the Jewish homeland against Islamic jihad and has been consistent on this... Jewish leadership was wrong not to back her - they actually disinvited her to anti-Ahmadinejad rally in NY before the election. Move over, kapos! I am so behind Palin for president because she represents America's true hope of a noble, moral, exceptional country. The GOP needs a cluebat."
BlackConservative:
"What Sarah has done by embracing the Tea Party movement, and the conservative movement is divide the party. She has drawn a line in the sand and stated clearly, and unabashedly that she stands with the conservative wing of the conservative party, and that it is more important for us to be a party with values and principles, than a party that is willing to stand for anything and fall for everything. This is the key to revitalizing the Republican Party-as much as some of us would at times want to pack our balls and go home, the only way for conservatism to have a political voice is within the structure of the Republican Party. Thus, we need to take our party back from the McCain wing of the party that wishes to tell us, like they told Sarah, to sit down, shut up, and bat our eyelashes for the cameras."
VotingFemale:
"One of the photoshop pics of Sarah has a KKK uniform grafted on her standing in the middle of a sea of supporters touting only white racists support her. Only problem is… there is a black woman within 10 feet of her... Oh and get this… they call me a racist, call Sarah a racist, and have a blogpost calling Michael Steele the n-word... Engaging in a battle of wits with Left Wing Loons like that would be like bringing an A-10 Warthog to a spitball fight!"
Joe Clarke:
"MSNBC's Nora O'Donnell, reporting from a book store selling Palin's book Going Rogue, was astonished how "white" those people who were standing in line to buy the book, and how 'no minorities' could be seen in the autograph line... Nora, as a member in good standing of that Proud White Self Loathing Liberal Club, went on to report to Chris Matthews, 'I think there is a tribal aspect to this thing'... The oddest thing about the MSNBC folks bragging on their 'Blacker Than Thou' attitude is the fact that almost the entire gang of MSNBC regulars are as cracker faced as you can find."
