No, Palin is wrong, and she has been wrong from the start. She is a lowlife like most politicians, to spew out meme's that will attract people like you Shady. Ignorant and uneducated, people that cannot think at all. This is the crowd she is after. The smart people knew she was a one trick running show pony as soon as McCain took her under his broken wings.
She is still using that one trick.

Are you not capable of getting your point across without resorting to insults?Or is it because the cold,hard facts aren't on your side?Pathetic....

Insults? It's abrasive as hell, get used to it.

What Palin touts as facts have been nothing but facts. They are not insults. Again, she only appeals to the idiots without a brain in their head. She is a looker, yes, but in the end that is all she has going for her.

How Sarah Palin Rope-a-Doped All-Too-Many Liberals

As a liberal myself, I was amazed by the obtuseness of the liberal reaction to Sarah Palin’s “death panels” quote. They fell into a trap because all too many were blinded by their class-conscious, snobbish disdain for Palin, who, whatever else you think of her, is one cagey operator.

And in doing so they allowed that one brilliantly crafted propaganda phrase to undo the chance for some necessary health care reforms (portability of coverage, no disqualification for previous conditions, eligibility to some plan for all, subsidized coverage for the impoverished uninsured).

They couldn’t believe that Sarah Palin was capable of something as canny as that deadly “death panels” phrase. They couldn’t see that it was a metaphoric shorthand for something real. Instead they thought she was too dumb, that she meant it literally (to have seen the potential for rationed end-of-life care in the bill), and instead indulged in an orgy of disdain for her “crazy,” “ignorant” “lies” and malicious misrepresentation.

This could also apply to many people in this forum. Who for some reason, still don't get it. But it makes for great entertainment. :lol:

Dislike I can tolerate,but when it come's to Sarah Palin it seems to cross the line into absolute hatred.There are some politicians I don't like,but I don't hate them either.What is it about Palin that brings out the ugly feeling of hatred exactly?She stared down corruption within her own party,she is raising a special needs child and she's not afraid to speak her mind.What is so scary about that?What am I missing that makes her so dangerous?

Shady · August 31, 2009

Hey GostHacked! Is this what you meant by she'd be irrelevant? :lol:

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin this week will begin accepting and rejecting the more than 1,070 invitations she has received for paid speeches and political appearances since she resigned from office, aides said

Twenty speakers’ bureaus made offers to represent her. She has signed with Washington Speakers Bureau, which represents everyone from George and Laura Bush to Bob Woodward and Katie Couric to Alan Greenspan, Colin Powell and Rudy Giuliani

More than 950 requests for speeches have poured in for Palin, and over 120 candidates for office have asked her to appear, including folks running for Senate, House and state Legislature, aides said

Then she’ll begin looking through the inch-and-a-half thick file her lawyer, Robert Barnett, has built of offers for network and cable pundit gigs, documentaries and business opportunities.

People also celebrated Sarah Palin day ... the day that McCain picked her as a running mate. Kind of a weird thing to celebrate considering that was the nail in McCain's election bid.

How we wish we could quit you, Mrs. Palin. But the right wing blogosphere is celebrating the First Annual Sarah Palin Day, the anniversary of the glorious hour she was announced as McCain's running mate.
No. Really. I am not making that up. Honest. Look at the Google Blog Search yourself.

PS. Anyone who brings up "Obama Derangement Syndrome" after looking at those blogs can smooch my Left-of-Barack Socialist butt.

No. The nail in McCain's election bid was when he suspended his campaign during the "economic emergency." He was leading in the polls up until that point. So once again. You're completely wrong. How many times do you intend on being wrong in one thread?

And you still haven't answered the question. Is my previous post what you meant by irrelevant? :lol:

Unfortunately for you, all the evidence points to a much different reality.

Sarah Palin making first trip to Asia in September

HONG KONG — Former U.S. vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, once questioned about her lack of foreign policy experience, will make her first trip to Asia in September.

The former Alaska governor will visit Hong Kong to address the CLSA Investors Forum, a well-known annual conference of global investment managers, the host announced Monday.

Bill Clinton, Al Gore and Alan Greenspan have spoken at the event, hosted by brokerage and investment group CLSA Asia-Pacific Markets.

"Our keynote speakers are notable luminaries who often address topics that go beyond traditional finance such as geopolitics," company spokeswoman Simone Wheeler said in a statement.

"We just felt it would be a fabulous opportunity for CLSA clients to hear from Mrs. Palin," Wheeler said, adding that CLSA approached Palin with the offer.

Of course, they're probably just "idiots" too. :rolleyes:

She still lacks Foreign Policy experience. This is why this will be her FIRST trip. She still has a long way to go before she is relevant again.

Of course, they're probably just "idiots" too.

Well it is China. She might as well go over and talk about China's death panels.

You're not kicking in any teeth because you haven't proven that she is anything but a media flash in the pan. She has no serious debate to offer, no substantive alternative policies, and no real power. She is a very attractive personality who can bring people out to see her for her celebrity, but so is Paris Hilton.

And you still haven't answered the question of how her facebook postings have changed the legislation. Precisely what changed and what makes you think these changes are the result of things she said?

She changed legislation with the meme of Death Panels. Which is just a buzzword for people to latch onto. It was killed because of the idiodicy out there that would misinterperet the portion of the bill. And Palin was one that did not have a clue as to what the bill actually contained.

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/2...eath_panel.html

And downright fictional, according to Obama, who said "political point-scorers" are spreading misleading information in an attempt to torpedo reform.

http://www.katu.com/news/medicalalert/53166502.html

Palin's posting comes one day after Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska said that Palin and other critics were not helping the GOP by tossing out false claims. Portions of the Democratic health care bills "are bad enough that we don't need to be making things up," Murkowski said, invoking a phrase that Palin used in her resignation speech, when she asked the news media to "quit making things up."

http://apnews.myway.com/article/20090808/D99UJ4B00.html

Palin resigned as Alaska governor on July 26 with nearly 18 months left in her term. She cited not only the numerous ethics complaints that had been filed against her also her wish not to be a lame duck after the first-term governor decided not to seek re-election next year.

This is why Palin is only relevant to the idiots out there who can't see past her cute face.

There is a danger with all this focus on Palin and family.

Certainly, she must wish that one person had never gotten near her family:

The Vanity Fair article is unlikely to be ignored by people fascinated by Palin. Who knows? It may even raise her profile more.

That doesn't really make sense though. It not only seems like a stretch to say her comment about "death panels" has anything to do with end-of-life planning, it also seems like a stretch to say that any provisions for end-of-life planning were removed because of her comment. The legislation is changing and most of the changes are towards reducing its original scope, and there will be further reductions yet. I really think that removal would have happened anyway.

But who would be proud of having a valuable health service like end-of-life planning removed from a bill because of their lies anyway?

Only somebody completely powerless who wants to appear influentual, I figure.

Thing is, I have said it to people's face. I won't apologize for it. If you want class, you might not want to follow Palin. But if you want, throw me into the same group that calls Obama, Hitler and a socialist Naz, go for it, because I see no bravado comming from that camp either.

Bingo !!! It was end of life consultation for terminally ill people with a suspected limited life span. That part of the bill was made to help those who don't want to suffer anymore. And why should they? If terminally ill people want to end their life, then why make them suffer through life by keeping them alive? It is a waste of time money and effort to keep them alive. It puts an emotional toll on the person and the family. This does not make any sense to me to make the person and family suffer by keeping someone alive when they simply have no more will to live. There is no benefit in this at all.

The real reason those provisions were taken out is because people would missinterperet those parts of the bill. Palin was one of them who missinterpreted 'end of life provisions' as meaning 'death panels'. It's dishonest and you really want integrity in your politicians (you know the ones who will make future policies) then you must scrutinize the persons actions and records.

Hence I keep using .. idiots, untill I can find a more appropriate term to describe her followers. Misguided maybe?

It isn't to someone else's face it's to the person's face, you idiot. I am assuming you haven't stood in front of Sarah Palin and told her that and I will also assume some other things I won't mention here to maintain a modicum of class.

The problem with the bill is that no democratic politician can spell out the specifics. Most of them weren't even going to read the bill and probably still won't read the bill. Like John Conyers says, and I quote, "What's the sense of reading a bill that you can't understand without having two lawyers present to interpret it for you." This guy has a vote to pass legislation that he doesn't have any clue about - now there's an idiot.

Sure, I would have no problem with saying it to her face. I'd also have so much class doing it, she would not even be able to recognize that I would be talking about her.

It is actually a problem with most bills these days. The language is way too complicated and can be missinterpreted differently by every party. It does need to be simplified. Many bills get rammed through without thought or much reading and scrutiny. So if we do need two lawyers to read an interperet a bill, then something is drasticly wrong with how policies and bills are done and processed.

So how about reform on how bills are created and passed and judged?

Sarah Palin - or Hillary Clinton? I REST MY CASE. :lol:
