They can always revert back to their claims of her bus vacation trip is dangerous.

 

"It adds up to a dangerous situation, says CBS News Producer Ryan Corsaro."

"I just hope to God that one of these young producers with a camera whose bosses are making them follow Sarah Palin as a potential Republican candidate don't get in a car crash, because this is dangerous," he said.  Corsaro asked a member of Palin's team if he thought it was dangerous to have reporters forced to chase her from stop to stop. "You're the ones that are trailing us," he replied.

 

They sure are paying an awful lot of attention to someone they deem dumb and irrelevant.  Fact is she isn't running, she is just scaring the living crap out of them.  She created a landslide in the 2010 elections and she will likely do the same in the 2012 elections, at least on the Congressional side.

 

Now before the two or three pollmasters get on here to tell me the polls say differently, how did those polls work out for ya in the 2004 Presidential election, or the 2010 Congressional elections?  Polls are great if you're a stripper, otherwise useless.  Hasn't the left regained 1 seat since that 2010 onslaught of 85 seats lost, or did I miss one.  Yea, the tide has really turned. 

 

Keep looking, watching, and stalking, she's making fools out of the die hard left and it is killing them. 

 

 

Not eating crow here.  The link posted above included a comment from one reader that says it all very succinctly:

 

"Revere did not ride for the purpose of alerting the British and that\'s what Palin was stumbling and mumbling about. He did not warn the British during his ride and it was his ride that Alaska\'s favorite quitter was talking about, not statements made \"after his capture\"

 

The academician who attempted to vindicate Palin's distorted version failed miserably.  His "analysis" has no analytical merit, as explained in the comment above. What she said was wrong, and no amount of after-the-fact verbal surgery will make it right.

 

Interesting, though, how quick the right wingers are to seize with near-orgasmic delight on the pronouncements of some university egghead from a college in "Taxachusetts" when they think his words will serve their purposes.  In other contexts, the professor would be dismissed summarily solely on the basis of his geography and status in some ivory tower enclave..

Tonight on Anderson Cooper's show appeared Douglas Brinkley, prize-winning historian, who commented thusly on Palin's eructations on Paul Revere:  "It's not good history; it's convoluted history."

 

Palin, earlier in the day, characterized the question that generated her initial doofusy description of Revere's ride as a "gotcha" question.  Review of the tape of the event discloses that the question she was asked by a local TV reporter was just THIS AND NO MORE: "What are you going to take away from your visit?"  NOTHING at all was mentioned about Paul Revere in that very open-ended, straigthtforward question.  It was Palin who, for whatever reason or impulse, decided to bring Paul Revere into her blithering revisionist discussion that immediately followed the question.

 

Seems like any time Palin gets flummoxed by media questions, she thinks the can dismiss her rambling, wildly off-base answers by claiming she has been the victim of a "gotcha."  It happened when she was asked the very simple and straightforward question, by Katie Couric, "What magazines do you read?" For Palin, THAT was a "gotcha" question! Wow!  Those people from the "lamestream media" are truly sneaky.

 

Who, after all, would be expected to remember what magazines he/she reads??! That kind of feat would  require Einsteinian powers!

Palin is scaring the crap out of no one.  She is, however, a popular source of amusement through the wild-eyed, inane nutterances she can be depended upon to produce on an almost daily basis.  History will not remember the Wacko of Wasilla kindly, but it will remember her accurately as blithering her way across the country, leaving behind a string of preternaturally D U M B comments that positively invite the ridicule they deserve!

 

It is hyperbole of the rankest kind to credit Palin with creating a landslide in the 2010 elections.

Sure,she campaigned, and some of her candidates won, but some also lost. See :  http://abcnews.go.com/Politics...ag/story?id=12041219

 

The fact that she campaigned for some winners is not, ipso facto, proof that her help was the decisive factor.  This woman is not the Wonder Woman of Republican electoral politics by any means. And--the polls show her popularity to have severely eroded over the last 3 years or so.

Again, history will tell the real story of this dingbat doofus and the true believers who could never understand her blithering doofishness and actually thought the woman had good sense!

The onlly ones she's making a fool out of are herself and her "fans". 



I never said she was right, my point is she isn't running yet she is keeping the pot stirred up by driving the die hard left crazy.  The media and the hard core left are concentrating on someone who is not running, out of fear.  She was largely responsible for the 85 member swing in the 2010 elections, dumb as she may be, it is a fact.  I've said it before, if she runs, she has zero chance of winning, even the nomination.  But she sure has the left bent out of shape, irregardless.  She IS making people think of who they vote for.  See when I vote for a candidate in my district, I don't refer back to whether or not Palin can remember what magazines/books she has read, I more look to oust the lying sack of crap that has been representing me in my district.  I'll give an honest idiot a chance if I have to over same ol, same ol what I've been getting.

There is no rehabilitating a suck-egg mule.  The stubborn devotion to the fantasies of what now passes as conservatism (while Barry Goldwater spins at high rpms) can not be dislodged for so long as its adherents cling to emotion and myth as the underpinnings of their strangely torqued belief system. Mencken had it right when he referred to "the virulence of the national appetite for bogus revelation."

 

But, you go, Sarah!  I am rooting for her to be on the Republican ticket.  There could be no greater clod in the churn for the GOP.  Probably just wishful thinking on my part;  I am hugely under-rating the political savvy at the control levels of that party to give her even a remote chance.   After all, she has many months before the electon in which to continue her blithering and dithering, and her approval record over the last three years has slid downhill continuously, as the polls consistently show.  But the scary thing is that she might retain enough of a following of her adoring base of true believers (the Eric Hoffer species) to actually have significant influence on the selection of the GOP ticket.  No certified airhead should be that influential in this "information age."

She doesn't need to be on the ticket, just throw her support to the candidate.

Scary to all you PDS Lefties. Ain't it.

Not scary in that she, per se, could have a significant influence on who the GOP chooses, but scary in that anyone as demonstrably daffy as Palin could have any significant influence over anything beyond her choice of which pair of high heels to put on in the morning before venturing forth on the blither trail.

Given the current as well as past demonstrated intelligence coming out of Washington how can anyone ridicule Sarah Palin's intelligence? You guys are nit-picking over tiny bits of info that may or may not be factually correct. Historical facts are always up for debate. I'm more worried about the "small bump in the road" we are living through than I am what Palin has to say about Paul Revere. I'm sure Obama and Anthony's Weiner are enjoying it though.

Two of the three academicians agreed with Palin.  Revere's statement to his Brit captors proved true, as the column sent to seize American arms was cut to ribbons on its return from an unsuccessful mission.

Interventor posts THIS irrelevancy as though it settled anything:

The statement Interventor referenced was indeed a statement to Revere's British captors, but it was not a statement that Revere rode forth to proclaim from horseback as Palin so ignorantly asserted. Revere's correct anticipation of the outcome of the fray between the British and the colonists has nothing at all to do with what he was proclaiming during his ride through the countryside, the event that Palin so egregiously mis-characterized in her description of Revere firing his warning gun and ringing his warning bell.  Interventor and others make themselves look sillier each time they try to redeem Palin from her state of chronic malapropitis..

Dead issue. Only shows how long you Palin obsessed goobs will hang on to a straw.

How 'bout them 57 States? Huh!

Neither, palin, nor I, stated that Revere personally rang bells, nor fired shots.

 

However, as I posted in several places, as Revere gave his warning, bells were rung along the route to further alert the populace. 

Just doing a drive by the good old TD Rethugliteacon Big Top Circus and notice we have a few new "clowns" in the center ring, but they are all singing the same old  "Thug" talking point tunes.

I love the observation of "Thugs" that those who are not Foxophiled and have maintained any objectivity are labeled with some syndrome, first it was Bush now it is Palin. 

BUT, what I REALLY love to see is the rethugliteacons turning on themselves.

Does Ed Rollins, Michele Bachmanns new campaign manager (snicker snicker) have PDS?????????

Did they report what HE said about Sarah from Wasilliness on Fixed News??????????????

 

Yes, there are a few new clowns singing the same old Foxophiled tune here at the Big Top,

But the COMEDY show that IS the RETHUGLITEACONS and their amazing hypocrisy act CONTINUES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

ENJOY THE SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ger REAL, Interventor.  She said exactly this--that Revere  "...warned the British that they weren’t going to be taking away our arms by ringing those bells and making sure as he’s riding his horse through town to send those warning shots and bells that we were going to be secure and we were going to be free.” If that does not say that Revere fired shots and rang bells, then what the Sam Hill does it say?  Are your ideological blinders so tightly in place that they totally impair your ability to read for comprehension?

The exact quote was:

 

“He who warned uh, the British that they weren’t gonna be takin’ away our arms, uh by ringing those bells, and um, makin’ sure as he’s riding his horse through town to send those warning shots and bells that we were going to be sure and we were going to be free, and we were going to be armed.”

 

No! The quote does not infer that Revere directly rang bells or fired warning shots.  But that bells were rung and shots fired to further alert the populace.  

 

As to my view of Palin, from another thread on this forum:

 

"The left wing reaction to Palin is hilarious. Half the HuffPo posters call her an idiot.  The other half state she is a sly Machiavellian manipulator of the press. Which is it!

She has excellent political instincts and can play the press like a violin.  Although, they caterwaul like the cat with a tail under a rocking chair.

My main objection is that her brand is damaged.  And, that she has remained incurious about the past and how we arrived at the point we are now at.

I hope the next president, Republican, of course, will appoint her to the cabinet.  Perhaps, Energy until they phase that one out. Then, Interior.

Luaghable that lefty posters mention Obama and leadership.  Weren't they the same ones that questioned the necessity for executive experience!"
