Why, one might ask? One might ask indeed. Very popular in Alaska AS Governor, done a damn fine job there. But she’s been continually attacked since she was announced, lawsuits filed (all proven bullshit, but it’s cost money they don’t really have), and I’m sure she’s fed up. We all know SHE is what got as much of the true Republican base off their ass as happened, hoping for McPain to die and put her in the top slot. Maybe this is a set up?
Let us look at a quote:
Some questioned the political wisdom of quitting in the middle of her first term as governor, but others were reluctant to bet against her popularity.
“I know that liberals attack the most prominent and most likely Republican nominee,” said Rep. John Culberson, R-Texas. “The more loudly liberals attack a potential Republican nominee, the more I think they’re likely to be successful.”
Powell concerned about Osamabamas agenda? Why the fuck didn’t you think of that before you turned your back on this nation to support that communist piece of shit?
Ah, hind-sight is 20-20.
Has one of the doubtlessly greatest posts I’ve seen in many a long while. This article is beyond superb and MUST be read. Please go do so now.
UPDATE: I borrowed a comment to put here. I hope Caveman82952 isn’t offended by same:
LC HJ Caveman82952 says:
To feel my gut tighten up as I read….knowing deep within myself what he says is both prophetic and true. To know deep within myself that all is not as it was, and may never be again. To find myself feeling as a leaf in a hurricane, wondering how to determine my fate, and the fate of those I love. To feel the anger I feel, looking at my young daughter, her adult life just beginning, robbed of opportunity and a future by a pathetic collection of gutless sadists, perverts and degenerates. As for the giddy elves and other demented Obama supporters….I truly hope you reap what you have sown. For you won’t get it from me, I will see to that personally, although a part of me hopes that some of you try, up close and personal. You will never see free medical care, for there will be no money to pay for it, any printed to be eaten alive by inflation. Perhaps in time when jobs leave and shortages mount, when a climate change bill is offered as a solution, when the cause of such shortages lies with those having driven away businesses and destroyed jobs. So hard for the left to understand people are not lining up to share in their neurotic nirvana, but rather are hunkering down or leaving. I am one of the former, I am not leaving. Living where I do provides me with ample opportunities to survive. To be one of the gun is to be a survivor, ar at least a free man. And as with food, such devices can also be used to drive off predators or defend against attack. One can pass all the laws he wishes, enforcing them quite another matter. In time I expect the country to splinter into various factions, the lefties unable to survive on their own in their urban enclaves. We rural folk can survive without them, united, all over this vast land. It may not be pleasant, easy, or for that matter safe or comfortable…..but it will be ours and we will be free…………I know the people here in the Central Valley of California, and they are spittin’ pissed at what they see going on. Count me as one of them………
Simply incredible writer, that man. And Cave, still praying for Mary to keep getting better, back to her pre-problem self. Love from us.
Macleans.ca has a very interesting article! Oh hell yes, they describe her to a T without even realizing they’re doing so!
To do this, she must gradually reduce her exposure and begin to educate herself on the issues. She will not be ready for 2012 by remaining governor of Alaska and playing the celebrity. The GOP has too proud a tradition to have a re-run of the 2008 vice-presidential candidate. Also, the base Palin relies on for support no longer holds the sway it once did. Social conservatism is losing steam as a political movement thanks to the dubious habits of people like Gingrich, Ensign and Sanford, and the election of an African-American president as well as the increased attention paid to gay rights issues shows that Americans have begun to cast their old divisions aside. The future for the GOP lies with fiscal conservatism and strong national security policy—not with turning back the clock. Palin must embrace the values that created the Republican party in the first place—a belief in the individual, a belief in a limited role for the state, and a commitment to equality. The party of Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, Eisenhower, and (the pragmatic version of) Reagan is the path to a Republican resurgence. Palin is nowhere on that radar. She is all about celebrity status and controversy. (Uhm, no actually. Not her fault she continues to draw fire, she just really wants to get on with her job.)
Go read it. Pretty good actually. They don’t quite see what we see, but they know we’d be better off by far with a real by God conservative government.
Let’s go look at Jack Cafferty and his minions. There are actually a few good comebacks in the comments, but there’s all the “blood in the streets” bullshit as well. What is wrong with these people? Indeed, these are the sorts who should not have a ccw, if they think that automatically that’s the answer. Apparently they have no idea of the truth wherein “an armed society is a polite society”.
Most, I’m sure some will break the law but MOST, ccw holders will obey the restriction. 99.99999% got the license so they could be legally armed, and they follow that law to the letter. The left thinks that if 1 in a half a million may misbehave, no-one should be allowed the chance. Shame they’re so weak.
Remember this: When seconds count the Police are only minutes away.
How many crimes have been stopped by a legally armed citizen? A citizen that was on scene when some shit went down, and were able to stop a crime.
How many criminals were legally carrying a licensed concealed weapon? None?
If the law says you can go to a restaurant that serves alcohol, or you are the designated driver for the evening, and the law says you can carry if you don’t drink, you won’t drink. And anyone who does drink where restricted should immediately lose their license. But it’s not the governments place to tell me I can’t. Only their place to punish me if I get stupid with my gun.
Again, from Vilmar.
Borrowed from Vilmar, who got the video from SondraK, when he saw the post at the Rott, after I sent the info to Crunchie. Phew.
–Thomas Paine, Common Sense, 1776
There was “ground zero” 1776. This is the 233rd ANNIVERSARY of that happening. Will we have another? *SIGH*
Anyway, NAGR sent out this video. Excellent. But pay attention from around :50 to 1:10. Statement made, question asked and answered.
My computer is acting stupid, so go here and see the question and the answer.
