The Case Against Sarah Palin

Sarah Louise Heath PalinA privileged White American, who has not shared the black American experience, a 20 year member of a church with a history of preaching hate, a woman whose upbringing and associations separates her from any understanding of the struggles of middle America, much less the poor, a woman who began her political career by associating with and maintaining alliances with domestic terrorists, and whose dealings have a direct tie with the current financial crisis. A woman who has accomplished nothing while holding government office and whose only political attraction seems to be her poise and appearance, a woman completely unqualified to be a heartbeat away from the highest office in this land.

Many people would read that above paragraph and nod their head in complete agreement. The only problem is, where Sarah Palin is concerned, none of it is true. Every one of those attributes can be laid at the feet of Barrack Hussein Obama. All I did was change the association to make a point. If all of that baggage did exist in Palin’s closet, we would see it plastered across the media in every possible form 24 hours a day. The same news anchors who either wink at Obama’s past or ignore it completely, would be howling for Palin’s blood. A “Palin Watch” would be established and Dan Rather would be resurrected to report on the impending indictment. Every one in Wasilla City, Alaska right down to the town drunk would be interviewed ad nauseum in the search for more dirt on the “most dangerous woman in the world”. But, you hand that baggage to a young black man with a D next to his name and it could not be more inconsequential.

Isn’t it wonderful that we live in a country with such an objective media?

Obama as Jesus??? Give me a break!

Hyperbole is not a lost art where the Democrat party is concerned. Over the years the ability to overstate, exaggerate, and obfuscate has been honed to an exceptional talent. If this were not so the latest dismissal of Sarah Palin by the gurus of the left, Susan Sarandon, Matt Damon, Barbara Streisand, all vast intellects I’m sure, would never have been uttered; “Pontius Pilot was a governor, Jesus was a community organizer.”

I knew Obama had been placed onto a platform so high by the Democrats that JFK would have to use a telescope to see it, but to put this do-nothing on a level with the Son of God…please. Let’s looks at Obama’s career for a second. He has been nothing but a mouth his entire political career. Where is the single accomplishment outside of being elected to the Senate? What wrong has he righted? Where is the corruption he has exposed and then abolished?

Ok, he speaks well…when he has a prepared script. When he’s hit with a surprise question he makes George Bush look absolutely eloquent. Palin, on the other hand, is so far better than Obama at speaking off the cuff that it isn’t even a contest. With Obama we are treated to a long sequence of “…but…but…but…but…” Yeah, that sort of leadership will bring about change.

Jesus offered solutions, even if those solutions were not all that popular with the ruling elite of his day. Hmm, sounds more like a Palin than an Obama to me. Jesus saw the corruption in the temple and rolled up his sleeves to clear it out, with a whip. Obama saw the corruption and entered into partnerships with The Nation of Islam and assorted Politicians while he was “community organizing”. Does the name Judas Iscariot come to mind? Palin went after the bridge to nowhere, a plumb project for Senator Stevens of Alaska, one of the most powerful Republican members of the senate at the time, and a member of Palin’s own Party. Pilot would not have done that, not as a loyal Roman.

Seems to me that if comparisons are to be offered, the similarities should be switched. Obama is a loyal Democrat and has a voting record consistent with party purity and is absolutely partisan, in spite of the rhetoric. Palin, on the other hand, has a record of battling her own party when it comes to a matter of right versus wrong. Unlike others who have done that and lost, she won, and the Sanhedrin, the media elite, cannot stand that.

Jesus was a fighter of corruption, he did not partner with it, unlike certain freshman Democrat Senators.

We've hit slime

It was inevitable, a record has been broken. The left, not satisfied with a substantive discussion on the issues, has descended deeply into the gutter to attack Sarah Palin, a woman they have never met.

This blog will not repeat the topics covered in these attacks. Let it be said that the spectrum has been broad and offensive. What I find interesting is that if the same style of attack was done by conservatives against a Democrat...we would already have marches in Washington and defamation suits on file. Talking heads on every network other than Fox would be decrying the unfairness of the attack and Fox would be clicking its tongue in sympathy.

Obama did the right thing in immediately saying that family was off limits, but you notice that he has moved on past that now as the slime continues to flow. His tail is covered and he can safely say he stood up for the right thing all the while secretly chuckling at the lefty blogs, saying, “Go get her guys.”

There is no question that Mrs. Palin has more executive than any of the other three candidates. As the Alaskan Governor she has had more access to classified material than Obama, Biden or McCain. Remember, the Alaskan National Guard occupies a number of bases that have a direct line of sight to Siberia. Russian military aircraft often fly over US territory up there. Can any of the three say they have been the commander in chief of any military group? The two Dems haven’t even experienced boot camp.

Imagine the ACLU suit if hypocrisy in political campaigns were made a felony.

A woman President?

Sarah Palin is being called the girl of Conservatives dreams. That may be so. She refuses to be part of the mansion crowd. During her tenure as an Alaskan Mayor she actually cut her own salary as part of a cost-cutting package for the city. She opted out of being driven about in a limo, choosing rather to drive herself. She has five kids, one of them born with downs, and she did not even consider an abortion after the tests showed what her developing child would be. No, the Dems would not like this lady at all. The problem is, the GOP leadership doesn't like her either.

She dared to challenge the intrenched earmark system and worst of all, she won. Fortunately for her she did so in the most indepentminded state in our union, Alaska. If she had tried to do so in my state, her results would have been like mine. One term and out. Lucky for Sarah, not too many Alaskan votes can be bought.

I like this woman. Her husband and kids are undeclared independants and that's just fine with her. She has already gotten a lot of pressure from the GOP leadership about that, but she won't interfere in that decision. Good for her. She is willing to begin cutting at the very top. This frightens the water out of people like Cheny and Kennedy. The top, according to them is supposed to be sacrosanct, as untouchable as God. Not according to Sarah Palin. If pain has to occure, it begins with her. Frankly, I would rather see her as the President instead of McCain, and with McCain's age, it just may happen.
