Palin Punches Back at McCain Camp
Going Rogue: An American Life
by Sarah Palin
Chapter Four; Section 8, pages 255-257
By the third week in September, a “Free Sarah” campaign was under way and the press at large was growing increasingly critical of the McCain camp’s decision to keep me, my family and friends back home, and my governor’s staff all bottled up. Meanwhile, the question of which news outlet would land the first interview was a big deal, as it always is with a major party candidate.
From the beginning, Nicolle [Wallace] pushed for Katie Couric and the CBS Evening News. The campaign’s general strategy involved coming out with a network anchor, someone they felt had treated John well on the trail thus far. My suggestion was that we be consistent with that strategy and start talking to outlets like FOX and the Wall Street Journal. I really didn’t have a say in which press I was going to talk to, but for some reason Nicolle seemed compelled to get me on the Katie bandwagon. Read more...

I have a mental picture of you and it looks exactly like Keith Olberman. Is it you Keith? No??? Well he's hot right? He knows Dan Patrick!! He's hot too! I wonder what Sarah Palin will wear tomorrow! Hopefully something low-cut and with opened-toed shoes. Don't you love her toes? But then Barack is hot too! And he speaks so well. Not like that old Bush guy. Anything but Bush! We now have a president that stands for....that stands for...well he reads great. As long as the teleprompter is working.
nom de plume
it seems that every civilization, where people congregate in history has somehow had to contend with vermin and trash, look like fox nation is no exception......
nom de plume
when i look at the post on here of her detractors ( i would love to use another word) i noticed one thing they are totally void of any substance, except maybe trash
nom de plume
no one gets SARA.... it is amazing ....... after this book tour i would love to see her do some policy speeches like Regan did.... she needs to let the people know exactly where she stands on issues rather then let her detractors portray her. by her going right to the people she will like Regan go over the heads of the news and the elite

A friend just emailed this to me. Axelrod slams Romney about his comments this Sunday at the YAF Conference about Obama and Afghanistan. Pretty Funny stuff, Axelrod looks totally flustered:

Despite Sara Palin's constant and lately daily media coverage, and Mike Hukabee's Weekend show and daily appearances on Fox, Mitt Romney's poll numbers are either equal or better than both Palin and Huckabee. Maybe SOME voters are looking for SUBSTANCE OVER GLITZ?

Sarah is one beautiful , classy , intelligent , sincere , humble , likeable , decent , Godly woman . She is basically everything that Obama and his thugs are not . No wonder liberals hate her.

AGREE TOTALLY,
If more people had her spirit, and moral conviction the world would be a much nicer place.

Actually she is none of the above.

Sarahcuda. I love her! Any woman that get wrestle a LARGE fish and Shoot a Moose, can handle the lamestream media. But why Oprah? Do people still watch that show?
Authentic Conservative
She is called the arctic fox.
The fox is intelligent and tenacious.
She is called the barracuda.
The barracuda is effective, efficient, quick with big teeth.
-
She also called herself an animal. With lipstick.
She was talking about dealing with her opponents.
-
Adversaries call her many things, but their behavior says different:
She can be as cunning as a fox, and as dangerous as a barracuda.
They behave as if she’s a fearless attack dog.
And they don’t want her loose.
Tally Whacker
So we agree. Palin is a dog.

I've never been a Palin fan, but she would never surround herself with America-hating radicals with questionable backgrounds.

Then she shouldn't come here.

Hello Morons; Welcome to the Official Foxnews Moron List
*
Exposing the MORON’S, MARXIST, and COMMUNIST that posts here. Strongly encouraging them to admit who they are and what do they really want? Coming out of the Socialist closet one Marxist at a time. They look like thoughtless, crude, rude and uneducated idiots.
*
Or observation is: You can not reason with a Liberal, Socialist, Marxist or communist. We know that sounds hard, but unfortunately it is very true. We are in an Ideology war. Open for debate. We feel our nation is depending on us. We will ignore the smart-asses, trying to play us. Your just bomb throwing, turds, and will be treated accordingly. Good day.

Sarah Plain reminds me of Peggy Hill from the show "King of the Hill." I can picture the following conversation between Todd and Sarah instead of Hank and Peggy:
---
Peggy: What if I'm not as smart as I always thought. What if I'm... average?
Hank: Peggy, you have an IQ of 175. You said so yourself.
Peggy: Well, there could be a margin of error. Especially since it's my own estimate.

The controlled puppet media had the lock on McCain for us as our choice, Palin had to fight the staff to get the campaign off the ground. Huckabee ran interference keeping Mitt Romney and Palin would have won. They fear Sarah because she is real and people believe in her.
Ohio Gal
From Sarah Palin's FB page;
"Amazingly, but not surprisingly, the AP somehow nabbed a copy of the book before it was released. They're now erroneously reporting on the book's contents and are repeating many of the same things they spewed during the campaign and afterwards. We've heard 11 writers are engaged in this opposition research, er, "fact checking" research! Imagine that – 11 AP reporters dedicating time and resources to tearing up the book, instead of using the time and resources to "fact check" what's going on with Sheik Mohammed's trial, Pelosi's health care takeover costs, Hasan's associations, etc. Amazing."

How dare they check her lies...sorry, "facts". she would never tell anything other than the truth, except when she doesn't.
Darrin Stevens
THANK GOODNESS FOR FACEBOOK. IT IS THE BEST PLACE FOR A RESPECTED PERSON WITH A NATIONAL PLATFORM TO COMMUNICATE. IT SHOWS HOW CLASSY SHE IS TO USE FACEBOOK TO TALK TO US. HOW DARE THEY FACT CHECK!! SARAH AND THE REST OF US EXPECTED THAT ALL HER STORIES WERE GOING TO BE TAKEN AT FACE VALUE. WHY DO THEY HAVE TO KEEP POINTING OUT HER LIES??? I AM JUST SO SHOCKED THAT THERE ARE PEOPLE OUT THERE FACT CHECKING HER!! WHO WOULD HAVE GUESSED IT???
