"Sarah the Liberal Slayer" Edition...
David Bozeman:
"Palin does not seek advice from armchair advisors. She will follow her gut instincts, which have served her well up to now. That's what people like about her. With eons to go before 2012, she enjoys ample time to sharpen her image and defy conventional wisdom. Still, the fact that she, a private citizen, remains the most discussed figure in American politics -- second only to the president -- proves that she doesn't need to hold elective office to effect change. Despite the left's best efforts to render her irrelevant, she is a far more compelling figure than the man who beat her for vice-president, Joe What's-his-name. The left is always informing us that resistance is futile, but the strong forge ahead and predicate their strategies not on dubious poll numbers but on whom and what is right for America."Rusty Weiss:
"[Bill] Maher appeals to his lower-intellect audience by stating: '...while we were off, Sarah Palin agreed to do commentary at Fox News. Which is actually very similar to her day job - talking to a baby with Down Syndrome.' To most with a conscience, this would clearly jump out as an appalling joke about an infant child. But the politically incorrect Maher doesn't view baby Trig as an actual human being. This is evidenced by past comments in which he refers to Palin's son as ‘it' three separate times in yet another tasteless joke: 'And the trump card, why Americans will fall in love with her, she's got five kids. How can you not vote for someone who has five children, including an infant. Some touching details about the infant: it has Down Syndrome, she had it when she was 43 years old, and it looks a lot like John Edwards.' Silver lining? Maher appears to finally accept the fact that Trig is actually Palin's son, something he wasn't quite sure about prior to the election in 2008. When did a Down Syndrome baby become fodder for half-wit comedians?"The Ignorant Fishermen:
"Palin, a social and moral Conservative, sends chills up the spines of the Leftist Media Elite. They are honestly horrified of her fundamental core values and belief in moral absolutes. There is something about moral absolutes, core values, accountability and faith in Almighty God that absolutely terrifies the liberal-progressive mindset. The Liberal mind utterly abhors and rejects these tenets. They live in a 'relative,' pluralist reality and any threat to their delusional world must be attacked and destroyed.There are no depths of the destructive slander, no depths of baseless acquisitions, no lawsuit too frivolous, and no tactic beyond the hate-filled secular-leftist, 'Democrat' organization that they will not use to hold their power base and autocratic position of national leadership. This is an all-out war to them and any threat must be exterminated. It is a Leftist trait. Look at the history of Hitler and the Nazis, Stalin and the Communists, Castro, Mao, etc. Seek and destroy to preserve the position of power at any cost."Jeannie DeAngelis:
"Behar retorted that Sarah’s rise to fame indicated 'fascism' has moved in and that Sarah’s suggestion that Obama take a tougher stance with our nation’s enemies meant the former Alaskan governor believed in 'going in and starting more wars.' Talk about conjecture. Ensler concurred but clarified: 'I think it’s the whole mentality of being in the NRA, believing in drilling and shooting all those animals from a plane.' Time and again Ensler mercilessly disparages Palin for killing caribou and wolves, and then vilifies Palin for her committed refusal to take human life. 'Emotional creature' Eve Ensler works out deep-seated psychosexual issues on stage, abhorring the well-adjusted Sarah Palin. Palin seems very comfortable in her own skin, something Ensler purportedly encourages. Ensler admitted, 'I have been a depressed person most of my life. I was always in the throes of self-hatred.' Which is precisely why Eve Ensler, preacher of female self-acceptance, and resentful women like Joy Behar are so irritated by the ebullient Sarah Palin."Rush Limbaugh:
"Okay, now, look, those of you out there in the tea party that are miffed at Sarah Palin... I just want to remind you of one thing, like I said the other day. If Sarah Palin had not endorsed McCain, can you imagine what the press would do to her? Can you imagine the refrain: 'Oh, he's perfectly fine to be president, you'd run on the ticket with him as president, but he's not good enough to be Senator from Arizona?' They would kill her."The Tygrrrr Express:
"She is reviled. She is despised. Like Dan Quayle and George W. Bush before her, her enemies want to destroy her with a ferocity that conservatives reserve for Osama Bin Laden. Liberals may find Bin Laden less threatening to America, but that is for another time. This went beyond politics a long time ago. This woman has had people try to rip her family to shreds. People who would never dare utter a word about Barack Obama’s children have decided that the Palin family deserves to be abused. This is liberalism."Rev. Michael Bresciani:
"In an interview with Sarah Palin on Tuesday February 16, Bill O'Reilly repeatedly asked former Governor Sarah Palin to state whether she thought 'birthers' are on the fringe. She went ahead to describe the kinds of people she encountered at the Tea Party meetings but tactfully avoided directly answering the question. Palin who has undergone relentless media bashing since her run for the White House seemed unwilling to join the fray of name calling and pigeon holing that is so much a part of politics and punditry in this day. It was a show of grace and dignity that is one of her best qualities that the media seems to be missing most of the time."Depravity:
"Gibbs mocks Sarah Palin’s palm-writing at briefing... Little hint for the Left … if you really think someone is a joke and irrelevant, you don’t keep hammering on them. She scares the #$% out of you, politically, doesn’t she? Keep laughing … you guys laughed at Reagan, laughed at Bush … we’ll see where it gets you..."Charles Reichley:
"Last week, [the News & Messenger] ran an editorial attacking ex-Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, saying "If there was ever any doubt that Sarah Palin is a fool, she has removed it. While Palin is certainly open to criticism, the paper's editorial was off base, short on facts, long on innuendo and did a disservice to her considerable achievements. She led her high school basketball team to the state championship. She's a college graduate. She helped run a commercial fishing business. She was elected to the city council twice, and twice elected mayor. She was president of the Conference of Mayors. She chaired a major state government commission. The people of Alaska were impressed enough to elect her governor. She impressed McCain enough that he picked her to run as vice president. She wrote a best-selling book. This might not be enough to qualify for the presidency, but it is hardly the life of a fool."Jim Palin:
"I don’t think she and her family have committed to 2012, but she has certainly left the option open. I’ve seen all the negative stuff that’s thrown at them constantly... I don’t really appreciate all that, but that’s part of the process, I guess. You just have to live with that side of it. I really believe that she’s a Republican and she’s a woman and the liberal side of the coin is constantly trying to nail her with one thing or another whether it’s true or false. She’s been scrutinized by more than anyone; that’s what I’ve observed."Christopher Goodwin:
"It’s hard not to wonder about the eerie synchronicity between 'hockey mom' Palin’s sway over huge segments of middle America, and the remarkable success of 'The Blind Side' and [Sandra] Bullock’s portrayal of [Leigh Anne] Tuohy. 'The material is couched so firmly in the film’s overall Jesus-praisin’ righteousness that Bullock becomes a sort of Southern Sarah Palin,' one critic wrote."Andrew Breitbart:
“The left’s Alinsky tactics — that’s you Rachel Maddow — of isolating Sarah Palin or her poor children and beating on them, beating on them, beating on them … [won’t succeed] with the tea party movement. …You can call them racists and homophobes. But those tricks aren’t working anymore, because people are saying, ‘This is ridiculous.’”Don Surber:
"It is amazing that someone who so strongly believes that he is the intellectual and moral superior of Sarah Palin is reduced to adolescent taunts. At least Seth McFarland of “Family Guy” has an excuse. His show is meant to be adolescent humor. But what is Maher’s excuse? This graduate of Cornell University sounds no better than the boys at Poca Middle School eating lunch."Yael T. Abouhalkah:
"Palin this week said President Barack Obama needed to do a whole lot more to make sure the nation has a good repository for the waste. Palin's got a great point... Here's Palin's criticism: 'While the White House now touts the building of new nuclear power plants, its budget inexplicably calls for cutting funding to the proposed nuclear waste repository at Yucca Mountain, Nevada. A real nuclear energy plan requires a strategy for dealing with nuclear waste storage and recycling.' Basically, the Obama administration is continuing to kowtow to Democratic Sen. Harry Reid of Nevada, and his longtime opposition to the repository. As Palin points out, the United States must keep working for a place to hold its waste for thousands of years in the future."Nicole Coulter:
"She quit [her job as chair of an Alaska oil & gas ommission] to protest corruption when the sitting Republican governor wouldn't investigate the state party chair for sharing confidential state documents with an oil lobbyist. She quit because by law as a commissioner she couldn't go public with her concerns because of confidentiality rules. So she quit to be able to blow the whistle on collusion knowing it would probably kill any chance she had to succeed in state politics as a Republican. And you know what happened to that state party chair? He was later given the largest ethics fine in Alaska history, largely because Sarah had the courage to put pressure on the governor's office and the Republican Party."- JP
