1) Innocent civilians have been killed in Iraq and Afghanistan in friendly fire incidents, and other mistaken operations. It's been going on for years.


so we should get up on arms because when Sarah Palin spoke facts someone in the media decided to make up a story that it was causing death threats but when Obama speaks of civilian casualities in such a way as to blame it directly on our troops that is OK. He is the incoming commander in chief and if you don't think stupid comments like that lower morale you are sadly mistaken.

quote:

2) Obama never said "most Americans;" and furthermore, his statement was dead-on.


So since you agree with the statement there is nothing wrong with it? How objective of you. I can see where Obama doesn't like people clinging to guns and religion since he thinks we should be clinging to the government. How does someone who is supposedly a constitutional lawyer not understand even the basis of why the document was written. It is a document to protect the people from their government, not to have the people protected from their ineptitudes by government.

quote:

3) I assure you, Wright's church is not atypical of a lot of urban churches.


That doesn't take away the fact that our new president elect sat in that racist church for 20 years.

quote:


4) This is just a parroted lie. And whatever Ayres did in the 1960s, isn't much of a concern to me - that is, unless, Obama was right there alongside him, setting bombs as a kid.


so who your president CHOOSES to associate with doesn't mean anything? It isn't just what Ayres did in the 60's that is troubling, it the FACT that he never repented of it and even stated openly that he wished he had done more. I knew who Ayres was way before this election and for Obama to not know this man's ideals when people who have never met him know them full well shows that he is a liar or an idiot.

But her disastrous interview with Katie Couric and the reports emerging now of tensions between her side and McCain's advisers illustrate that she may well have done a disservice to John McCain.


Palin was the only one who gave McCain any chance at all. If he had done what the media wanted and gone with someone like Liebermann, his campaing would have sunk into nothing. As it was, even Pali wasn't enough to cover McCain reputation for compromise.

Don't buy the advice coming from RINOs (most of whom lost) that the GOP needs to go even more to the left. Why should people vote for fake Dems when they can have the real things?

His campaign had to tell her to tone it down.


His campaign was a disaster, and now the people running it are trying to find a way to cover their amply behinds.

She was inciting hatred - or do any of you really think that in some parts of America, to openly say that a man of color associates with terrorists is not possibly a prelude to a lynching?


Oh, please. The truth is, Obama associated with terrorists. If you don't like it, tough. That's the truth, and the people needed to know about it, and the media did their darnedest to cover it up and downplay it.

I disagree, the GOP needs to move back to the right and give us a true conservative candidate.

That's my point. There are RINOs out there saying the GOP needs to go even further left, especially in regards to social conservatism. That's is advice that will simply lose for the GOP.

If they ever get back to having real conservative candidates for their offices, they will win again.

Actually, the origin of the terms "left wing" and "right wing" for politics dates from pre-Revolutionary France:

Article on Yahoo (cross-checked with other sources too)

The revolutionary commoners sat on the left side of the Assembly, and the nobles sat on the right. We can but speculate as to why they chose that particular arrangement. (Maybe they were influenced by the Biblical passages, who knows?)

What half truth? Bill Ayer's was a terrorist who said on 9/11 that he wished he could have done more.

Oh for pete's sake. Give me a break. This is almost as inane as blaming the US for the 9/11 terrorist attack. Bad people do bad things. Period. They don't need external motivations for doing them.

Eh.

Speaking for myself I'm bored with Palin and with Palin bashing.

I think she did enough damage to her reputation this election on her own to render any future presidential run irrelevant with out any need to criticize her any more.

She might ultimately become a state senator, and she might even try to run for president, but from everything I've seen about her she's simply not capable of winning.

Republicans should realize this now and avoid the trouble.

The future of the republican party is now all about Bobby Jindal, in my estimation.

I have no doubt that McCain asked him to be his VP (if you remember, McCain made a trip to meet with him a couple weeks before announcing, and Jindal proclaimed that he had no interest shortly after), but (as I said then) I think he was smart enough to not hitch his wagon to a dying horse.

If Jindal and Palin run in 2012, I think Jindal would easily beat her out in the primaries.

exactly what did she do that damaged her chances? The africa is a country thing has been proven to be false. The secret service came out early and said that there weren't chants of kill him and this story here,if you actually read the article and not the headline, does not even mention that the secret service connected her to any of this.

I agree, extremely intelligent, capable, and so far as i have seen in Louisiana politics, honest which makes it a wonder he got elected.

It is little more than perception, which to the left is reality (the media is the message, and all that). To them, her supposed lack of experience and supposed gaffes (unlike Obama's real lack of experience and Biden's real gaffes) make her somehow unqualified.

We've got a hot bench for 2012. Jindal, Palin, Gingrich, Huckabee, Romney (even though some dislike him)... shoot, even Fred Thompson again, there are several dozen excellent conservatives who need to begin positioning themselves now in order to remove Barack "Ready to RULE over you on day one" Obama from his throne come 2012. Depending on how much welfare goodies Barack can manage to hand out and how well he hides his socialist policies and agendas from the public, I just can't see hm being a popular president in 4 years to anyone except the hardcore Obamatons and of course the majority of the black population and others who have a hard time looking beyond skin color.

The RINOs managed to scuttle him in favor of Arlen Specter, unfortunately. I liked him a lot and also Rick Lazio of New York. Remember, he was the one who"invaded Hillary's space" in one of the debates for the 2004 (?) NY Senate race.

Specter has actually been one of PA's Senators since before Santorum. What happened is the national Democratic Party decided to specifically target Santorum for elimination. They got Bob Casey Jr. (son of a popular past governor) to run against him in 2006. Casey claims to be pro-life, which nullified a key advantage for Santorum. (We'll see how pro-life Casey really is when FOCA comes up for vote.)

Didn't Rick Santorum challenge Arlen Specter for Specter's senate seat? That's what I was thinking and referring to.
