Sorry Krauthammer and Rove fans, but I thought these two’s comments on her lastest speech were pathetic. They see someone acting selflessly and don’t have a clue what to make of it. We will only get somewhere when points of view like theirs become those of political dinosaurs, along with William Ayer’s. Go Sarah@@@@@!!!

first, aren’t you embarrassed by such a skanky name? If it helps, we are embarrassed for you.

And second, yes, it is going to be an excruciatingly long year, waiting til Democrats get thrown out on their asses next year with you repeating what is apparently the only sentence you are able to string together over and over and over again.

I suppose in liberal circles, your statement must sound ingenious, and as such bears repeating. But you should know that everywhere else, it just makes you look like a retarded preschooler.

You dont know that Palin “quit” in that sense. Perhaps she is leaving politics, but she has not made her plans clear. Indeed, the only thing she has said is that she is advancing on a new front, or something to that effect, which suggests she is not quitting politics at all, but may very well be devoting all her time to campaigning against your fascist leaders. And if that is the case, that’s not quitting, that’s going on the offensive.

I think there is one, starring buckeyednutlover.

Sorry, couldn’t resist.

Which meant fewer taxes for Alaskans but improved services and a full treasury. Something that Dear Teleprompter just can’t do.

“just furthering socialism and spreading the wealth.”

Gee, I would think that you of all people would LIKE that. But then again, “furthering socialism” and “spreading the wealth” is an oxymoron, like the term “intelligent liberal.”

“no wonder should couldn’t take the heat, what with that pea-sized brain she has.”

You mean like how Dear Teleprompter doesn’t like his own press corps to diss him? Or maybe how he misjudged the support of the Tea Parties? And tell me again - who uses a teleprompter, and who doesn’t?

It’s going to be a long, LONG decade for you when Congress goes GOP next year and Palin becomes president in 2012.

Checkmate.

no amnesty for the demostrators, no restrictions of the development of nuclear power. Remember, no preconditions.

No nothing except the mighty sucking power Hoover or Dyson might envy.

Wish there was a Billy Mays type ad for Barack Obama’s International Knob Polish.

Well, perhaps if she didn’t pick fights with late night talk show hosts who are celebrities…

Brilliant, JAFO.

And yes, Bush did get testy. On Iraq. On questions of torture. Arguing it’s not the same kind of testiness as Obama is special pleading again, which I mentioned under the comments for your Bush/Obama attacks challenge. If you want an exception for Bush’s exchanges you are going to have make a better case.

Look, I don’t see any evidence (outside of rumors) for any scandals brewing on the Palin front. No family problems. No marriage issues. No “big” reason she might walk away.

I do see evidence that things have gotten tougher for her this year — and I don’t just mean with the press coverage that comes from being a national figure. Running Alaska is more difficult with the economy in shambles. Her relationship with both local parties administrating her state has soured; with the national GOP is probably worse. Her approval ratings were also way down. In various shapes and forms, that happens to everyone elected to public office.

So I’ll go back to my original point about Palin. Obama and Bush and McCain and Biden and Clinton (…and Reagan, and Bush I, and Mr. Clinton, and Gore and….) all encountered fair and unfair criticisms. All got testy with the press. They got through it. They served (or are serving) their elected positions.

Palin quit.

Well, perhaps if she didn’t pick fights with late night talk show hosts who are celebrities…

Right on! The minute Sarah Palin made a joke of David Letterman’s bastard son, I knew she was toast.

What forum does Letterman have to defend himself against cheap shots? And it ceratinly goes against his nature to strike back.

And when Palin said she was one pig who would like Obama to put lipstick on, I was shocked that she would assume that Obama would ever touch a pig. How anti-Muslim can you get?

No wonder so many intelligent and otherwise well-informed people treat Sarah Palin they would a celebrity regularly featured in the tabloids.

Well, perhaps if she didn’t pick fights with late night talk show hosts who are celebrities…

When was the last time we saw something like that…

Oh yeah. Dan Quayle and “Murphy Brown.”

And therein lies the problem. Like the former Vice-President, Governor Palin doesn’t have good political instincts.

Better luck next time.
