More Quote of the Day Honorable Mention, Part 98

"Quintessential Alaskan Woman" Edition.

Let's review...

Liberal commentator Kirsten Powers:

"While I agree with Palin on almost nothing and would never vote for her, she is in many ways the quintessential Alaskan woman."

MacRanger at Macsmind:

"The more I dig the more I find connections between Gustafson and Shannyn Moore, the progressive blogger and chief harasser of Sarah Palin, and it’s looking more and more like this was a 'bait' setup for which Sarah bit, but then she would have had no choice. Had she not approached them over the banner they most likely would have approached her. Either way it backfired and Sarah won the day by most accounts."

Jim Hoft at Gateway Pundit:

"What began as a confrontational moment ended with the former Alaska Governor telling her detractor 'we probably have a lot in common' and the protester agreed."

Rick Moran at American Thinker Blog:

"Apparently, Palin's criminal activity in rolling her eyes has been interpreted by the left as dissing teachers. Palin, on her Facebook page, sorta squashed that one... What a monumentally stupid, inane, bogus, irrelevant line of attack. Eyebrow raising is now cause for criticism? What's next? Shrugging the shoulders? Rubbing the forehead? Putting your hands in your pockets? Holy mother what idiots."

Don Surber at the Charleston Daily Mail:

"PolitiFact is coming off as an arm of the DNC in this debate."

Daniel at Red Meat Conservative:

"Brian Murphy has shown the potential of a future rising star in Maryland politics. I look upon the Palin endorsement as a positive way to ignite his candidacy, not to the extent that he will defeat Ehrlich in the primary, but enough so he can be a future leader down the road... The job of the Ehrlich camp at this point is not to attack Palin or tear down Brian Murphy, it is to work harder to promote free market values in such as [this] socialist state... This is why I am wholeheartedly enthusiastic about Palin's boost to Brian Murphy..."

Andy Barr at Politico:

"And despite the recent losses, Palin remains the hottest draw in Republican politics — one very few GOP candidates wouldn’t love to have come stump in their state."

jazzycmk at RedState.com:

"There seems to be little middle ground with people either loving her or hating her (put me squarely in the 'loving her' camp). However, if you’re in the GOP, throwing out red meat quotes like that to the MSM does you no good, whether you agree with her endorsements or not. Furthermore, love her or hate her, there is no denying that she has injected a lot of enthusiasm and vitality into a party that sorely needs it. I would also say she serves as a constant reminder to the GOP that they need to return to their conservative roots, as opposed to the Washington-established GOP that is often indistinguishable from the Dems. So don’t be stupid Congressman Kingston."

Sal at Axis of Right:

"Sarah Palin’s prediction of 'Death Panels' is starting to look rather prophetic, isn’t it?"

Big Dog:

"Looks like Sarah Palin was on target when she discussed the death panels that would come with Obamacare and... right on top of things regarding bureaucrats coming between you and your doctor. Obama’s recess appointment, Donald 'Dr. Death' Berwick will, for the first time, not allow an FDA approved drug to be used to treat Medicare patients with ovarian cancer. As Doug [Ross] points out, withholding a treatment that could save lives sounds like a death panel."

David C Beach at BLN:

"Sarah Palin will be the next president of the United States... Make no mistake. The left has never feared anyone like they fear Sarah."

Pat at Standing Pat:

"Here’s the contrast. Palin goes to ANWAR to demonstrate that the proposed onshore drilling area is a wasteland and that America would be better off exploiting it. Meanwhile, our President visits battery factories to extol his uneconomic energy fantasies... Obama has fallen for the Spanish fallacy: investing in uneconomic energy production is good for the economy. Recently wised-up Spaniards would beg to differ. Palin knows that exploiting our domestic oil and gas reserves is a matter of economic and national security."

Lonely Conservative:

"[Sheryl] Crow hates Sarah Palin so much that she wrote a song about her... In Crow's tiny little mind only liberals have the right to free speech."

AWR Hawkins at Big Hollywood:

"It’s just hard to look at a proposed reality show centering on Johnston as anything other than an attack on Palin. Were this not so, then tell me why we haven’t seen a reality show on Al Gore’s son (busted for drugs) or John Kerry’s daughter (DUI), or even Congressman Barney Frank? The answer is obvious: Gore, Kerry, and Frank share the same worldview as the dominant crowd in Hollywood, thus their children and their actions are shielded from criticism. Moreover, unlike Palin, they aren’t in a position to steer the course of this nation toward conservatism in 2012."

Liberal Stephen Blackwell at Death and Taxes:

"Truthfully, Sarah Palin is making it easier to be a conservative than surprisingly gaffe-prone Obama is making it easy for us to be liberals."
