So it was you! hahahah lol
She'll do much better in 2012...
Pat:
It wasn't just me, but when Obama recently said last weak that there was
a righteous wind at his back, THAT was me. He knew I had his back
covered with a pat on the back, and I blow hard. No way will Palin do
better in 2012. Obama will win again. Then in 8 years Hillary will
still be younger than McCain is now and she will win. 16 years of
Democrats ought to set this country straight. And I'll still be blowing
that wind. Here, let me take care of 2012 right now:
Sarah Palin LIED that she was against The Bridge To Nowhere and that she
stopped it. But she was for it 2 years ago and she didn't stop it,
Congress did. Only when Congress de-authorized building The Bridge did
she say "No, thanks."
Sarah Palin LIED because first she said she decided right away to run
for VP when it was offered her, but said later that she had her
daughters decide about it 1st.
Sarah Palin LIED about her personal chef that she got rid of her, but in
reality the chef just got reassigned with a different title.
Sarah Palin LIED about her claim that the teleprompter malfunctioned for
her speech at the RNC. Reporters behind her seeing the teleprompter said
they did not see it malfunction.
Sarah Palin & McCain have been saying they are against earmarks, but
Alaska has gotten MORE EARMARKS per capita than any other state. Palin
asked for $197 Million in earmarks this year.
You should also know this:
Palin had a WITCH HUNTER preacher from Kenya pray for her and she
accredits him with help to make her governor. In Kenya this guy drove a
so-called witch out of town because he said she was causing car
accidents. But over there a lot of false accusations go against ladies
that they are witches and they persecute and maybe kill them. This is
extremism Christianity.
Palin fired the TROOPER GATE guy because she said he was bucking her
administration's directives. But what he did was seek funds for an
aggressive anti-sexual-violence (RAPE) program that is one of he things
Sarah Palin said he did wrong.
As mayor, Sarah Palin charged RAPE victims a fee to pay for the RAPE
kits that collected the evidence to find the ones WHO RAPED them. Though
it was only 1 reported rape that this happened to, it was still part of
the policy in her administration. They try to say that they only charged
the rape victim's insurance company, but that is STILL charging the
victim.
In both cases she seems against having it easier to prosecute the
RAPERS. These are not things that help women nor fight crime.
Alaska has the highest rate of INCEST AND RAPE. So Palin is not fit to
lead the country SINCE SHE IS TERRIBLE IN THIS RAPE MATTER, nor is she
fit to be 2nd in charge to a man 72 years old and has already had cancer
a few times, or could die of something else.
Sarah Palin has a tanning bed in the Governor's Mansion and one of her
supporters says it is used to treat some sort of DEPRESSION.
Sarah Palin as a Mayor hired at least 5 high school CLASSMATES with
salaries far exceeding their private sector wages. The opposite is that
she sometimes has called her opponents "haters".
Sarah Palin has an e-mail SCANDAL. There are 1,100 hidden e-mails that
they will not release. But they should have to because not all of them
are confidential policy matters and she CC'd them to her husband,
citizen Todd, so she should be forced to reveal them, as they are part
of investigating her wrong doings.
Sarah Palin SLASHED FUNDING for the Special Needs Olympics.
Sarah Palin RAISED TAXES as a mayor (for a skating rink) and as a
governor.
NO WAY is Sarah Palin fit to be one of our leaders. Obama & Biden are
the best. Vote for Obama/Biden.
The VP Debate
Twice Palin said "darn." Twice she said "heck." Once she said "dog gone
it." All 5 times that is cursing. Where is the Christian conservative
family values? This lady no way represents Christianity. But not once
did Biden use a curse word, and he even got emotionally choked up
showing he has a heart that cares when he talked about knowing about a
child who might not make it.
Health Care
Biden called it "The Ultimate Bridge to No Where" when he talked about
McCain's plan to give a $5,000 credit but having a $12,000 take away for
health care.
Energy
Biden made it clear that McCain voted 20 times against funding for
alternative energy sources. Plus he pointed out that it would take 10
years to get a drop of oil from drilling offshore. Besides this big
delay, if won't help much because we only have 3% of the oil here yet we
use 25% of the world's oil.
Various Things
Palin lied saying we are down to pre-surge levels in Iraq. I heard a
couple weeks ago that even with the thousands that will be pulled back
by February, that still leaves more troops there than before the surge
started.
Palin didn't answer questions and instead she spoke of her own things.
She even said, "I may not answer the questions even the way that you or
the moderator want to hear."
Palin didn't distinguish herself and John McCain from George Bush. She
didn't mention differences between her and McCain's polices and George
Bush's policies when she had many opportunities to do so.
We always see her carrying her baby around. That's not a job a leader
should have to do. Her 7-year-old daughter is bad just like her winking
(Proverbs 10:10) mother. Did you see the 7-year-old daughter make an
ugly face towards the audience right when the families got up on stage
after the debate? She doesn't look very disciplined when you combine
this with what she did at the convention.
The 1st poll I heard of said Biden won with 46% of the vote, while Palin
had only 21%, and 33% were undecided.
This debate does not help the Republican party and Obama/Biden will
still have a big lead.
Praise the Lord, thank You Jesus, Sarah Palin lost and Obama/Biden won!
Happy Days are here again.
Pat's preaching:
The Way To Heaven, according to the Bible

"Once Saved, Always Saved" IS WRONG

Barbie Palin should have controlled the interview and talked about

Palin was exposed to Washington politics for 67 days, and she had to
absorb a tremendous amount of information in that brief time. How

The information about NAFTA is hardly a Washington Political thing. I'd

Most people learn that Africa is a continent in grade school.

that FDR was president at the beginning of The Great Depression [which
he wasn't], and that FDR got on T.V. during the start of The Great

That's nice, but as you pointed out "Palin was exposed to Washington

A compentent choice would not have had to absorb that information. Nothing
she was "exposed to" was not in the news and on TV on a regular basis -

She pursued no dream, she was picked for some obscure reason.

First of all, you are not in Palin's inner-circle. You don't know what |
Palin's dreams are, much less the ones that she's pursued in the past,
the ones that she's pursuing now, or the ones that she will pursue in
the future. As to your other ridiculous notion, that she should have
"got on" sooner, how could Palin have known that McCain would select her
as his vice-presidential running mate a "few years" before she actually
found that out? In other words, how could she have gotten prepared
before the fact? |

was as surprised as anyone when McCain named her, but she did what most
good citizens and civil servants should have done when their country
comes calling...she answered that call, and she studied-up as best she
could with only 67-days notice. [Rational people will give Palin the
credit that she's due. Small-minded people will continue to nit-pick
her to death.]

If, if, if. Probably, probably, probably. It will take decades before |

Palin, [and it certainly won't be written by you, that's for sure.] |

Of course you can. I responded to a conversation about Palin and you change
the subject. That pretty much sums up her charm.
Talk about clothes rather than serious matters.

How clever of you. Unable to actually respond to my comments you
talk about somebody else and comment on my spelling.

Perhaps in your world she did what "good citizens do". In my world we are
trained for a particular task before hand and are taught to let people know
something is beyond our ability or we are not prepared.
It may safe a life.
A responsible citizen would do the same. A politician might not. |

First, I neither mentioned "charm" nor "clothes." You did that. Next, |
since you brought up Palin's weaknesses, I brought up Biden's. [Palin
was the Republican V.P. nominee, and Biden was the Democratic V.P.
nominee.] Why would you want to discuss Palin's weaknesses, and yet not
also be willing to discuss Biden's weaknesses?

Fine, you need it drawn out for you. It's like this: |
Palin was the Republican's V.P. nominee.
Biden was the Democrat's V.P. nominee.
If you want to talk about Palin's weaknesses, be prepared to talk about
Biden's. It does not get any simpler than that.

As I've been saying, over and over again, the Palin pick was a total |
surprise...to her, to Republicans, to Democrats, to the voters, to the
news media, and to Americans in general. All of the "pundits and
experts" were talking "Romney" (former Republican Governor of
Massachusetts), "Pawlenty" (current Republican Governor of Minnesota),
"Giuliani" (former Republican Mayor of New York city), "Huckabee"
(former Republican Governor of Arkansas), "Lieberman" (former Democratic
V.P. nominee), and even "Charlie Crist" (current Republican Governor of
Florida), all as the likely McCain picks. Those were the names being
tossed around before the RNC in St. Paul. Consequently, this is exactly
why the Palin pick was such a surprise *to everyone* before St. Paul,
including to Palin herself, and that's also precisely why Palin had not
been [and could not have been] "prepared" for McCain actually picking
her as his running-mate. Furthermore, it is intellectually dishonest
for you to maintain that Palin should have been preparing [or could have
been preparing] for an event that absolutely no one [including the
so-called "experts and pundits"] could have possibly known about...until
it finally happened.
The news media then flipped into an absolute feeding frenzy. They had
actually thought that the GOP's likely V.P. candidates had all been
"vetted" ahead of time, and so they and many small-minded liberals
jumped all over Sarah Palin, tearing into every petty detail, public and
private, which resulted in the modern witch-hunt in Alaska and the
demonizing of a public servant...unlike that of anyone in recent memory,
and you know that. Her fault, her guilt, her wrong-doing, was in doing
what all V.P. candidates have done in the past, that of accepting the
nomination of their political party, and, in Palin's case, trying to
"make do" in a mere 67-days. We used to love an American Spirit like
hers [regardless of party-line, politics and gender]; however, now that
same American Spirit is ostracized, vilified, condemned, criticized,
and, yes, even hated...far beyond any good reason. |

It's a pity watching some of you dealing with the defeat of McCain/Palin.
Geeze .......are you really that dense that you don't realize that Mrs.
P(arrot) is one of many you meet daily at any local coffee shop? Could
you imagine any of them as VP or President of the United States? I have to
admit that not all of them could/would claim to have read every magazine on
the newstand, let alone thinking of Africa of being a country. I mean, this
really requires a *3rd-grader*.
Did you ever asked yourself why McCain chose someone he barely knew as his
running mate, besides from being in the correct party?
I suspect you didn't, because the current republican administration leaves
no doubt in anybodies mind, that President Bush deserves a medal of honor
for his outstanding accomplishments. So why would anybody dare to question
a Republican's choice, right?
Well, I am thankful, that not everybody thinks like you do. The american
people had every right to get to know the person they had never heard of,
and judge her ability to serve them as VP. You done the same with Obama and
Biden; you turned them upside down to find something negative to support
your contention. You failed to acknowledge however, that the McCain
campaign was nothing but dirty, because McCain wanted to win at all cost.
How does this compare with your christian values? Aren't we instructed to
test each spirit, and even more so when selecting someone for the highest
office in the country? What made Sarah so sure, she would pass the test of
the american people by voting her into the White House? She must have been
pretty confident thinking, that alaskan standards apply to the rest of
America. lol
Poor Sarah, all the lipstick and fancy clothes, didn't change the fact, that
she was a piss-poor candidate.
It was fun watching the whole thing. |
