Re: What Palin Didn’t Mention In Her Book: Her Anti-American Past

Piepiepie — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 20:04:54 -0000

Yup, that's what had me the most upset -- Todd and Sarah Palin were long-time members of the AKIP an Anti-American group. That was the whole reason trig was to be born in AK as opposed to TX -- to ensure their kids were all-AK.

Yet, the MSM completely overlooked these bombshells.

than your site and philosophy is ill-titled if on the one-hand you hand over loyalty to a party that offers nothing to the agenda you claim to be interested in, and on the other you complain about blind party loyalty.

lol

M.C. Steal Moe Dee set the GOP back about five years with minority voters. The guy is a buffoon who is busy trying to pimp his 2 year post to be seen in as many places as possible. Worse, he is busy trying to compare himself to the POTUS, when he's been stripped of his purse strings, his meager leadership within the RNC and can't even finish the gop.com website.

witness:

That's the level of his "management skill" appearing as a buffoon on tv and radio.

Then When? The advantage won't last, and realistically the teabaggers played their anger cards out during August.

There are centrist democrats who want the cover of bipartisanship to get things done, b/c Rs were included the centrist dems can go back home and say the Rs didn't negotiate in good faith as opposed to the Rs saying they were locked out.

keep making things up, and hoping for "true believers" to both run and win political offices at a national level.

She had a general consultant do it to be "new, fresh, non-ideological" rather than sticking to issues lol. She probably said several times "how do I appeal to different demographic groups like Obama"

Patterson is free to run, he just shouldn't try to use his Father and Rangel to hold Cuomo out of the primary.

What perception? Obama is going to put a lot of capital behind Patrick -- indeed he already has pushed fairly heavily for him.

Patterson was NEVER an Obama ally, and had a chance to select Caroline Kennedy, gain some favor and NOT pick Gillebrand and gain some favor. Instead he dissed the WH twice.

As far as Burris goes, I called that period. Plenty of White Pols and advisors have been tossed the Car Czar, Efficiency "CEO," Daschel, Latino -- Richardson etc. etc.

Absolutely -- minimize damage, and then in 2012 be able to pick up BETTER democrats as replacements for the losses. The more that is done in this cycle 2009-2010 the better. Legislation will grind to a halt next spring.

Exactly, people seem to be looking past a fundamental rule in politics -- a bird in the hand!

Specter has already moved leftward.

It must be nice on one hand to talk about the outright political calculus used by Lieberman, Specter, Snowe and Collins, and then in the other appeal to their "conscious."

Obama's "bigfooting" Patterson is more than worth it.
1.) Patterson is not equipped to run NY State.
I don't think it has to do with his political acumen as much as it does the fact that the Lt. Gov is usually an after-thought and not ready to take over quickly. In normal situations the Lt. Gov has time to recover, put operatives in place from teh state party etc...

However, Patterson didn't get that chance b/c of the huge problems with Spitizer's people (stalking the majority leader of the senate to dig up dirt on him etc.). So, Patterson's transition was really bad. Worse, the economy collapsed in NYC during his governship and Pat didn't seem to make any effort to raise his stature to be beside bloomberg, bush and Obama during the meltdown.

2.) Patterson backed the wrong horse, then appointed his choice of Senator.

Patterson backed Hillary -- so, it's likely the Obama people weren't particularly interested in jumping to go work for Pat. Especially after Patterson strung along Caroline Kennedy and then Embarrassed her -- Caroline would have been a great care-taker Senator for NYC AND would have helped Pat with the Obama admin. Instead he choose Gillibrand thinking that Gillibrand would help him with NY State politics b/c of her family's strength there -- um we see how that is workin out.

3.) Patterson does not have his own machine.
Patterson simply doesn't seem to have his own political machine built. Anyone from NYC with more details ?

Well said, most of her salon columns are absurd mix of ramblings and conjecture. The writing is interesting; however the analysis is based on the acceptance of right-wing talking points straight from radioland.

That's Paglia's new audience.

Piepiepie — Sat, 19 Sep 2009 06:50:15 -0000

I don't think it has to do with libertarianism at all -- it has to do with finding issues to make her more popular with the lunatic fringe / palinites. If the "birther's" standards about inconsistencies are to be taken at face value, then it would be almost impossible to prove one's citizenship.

BHO has produced docuemnts that prove his birth and citizenship that are acceptable to the U.S. government for the purposes of citizenship, school, passports, driver's licenses etc.

If the birther's want a new standard for citizenship consistent with the technology we have today that's fine -- essentially a full background check to ensure the documents of birth are accurate.

However, they don't want that, as evidenced by the constant shift in the rational. Additionally, the next step would be to add DNA checks, then they would not believe the DNA b/c there would be some small inconsistency with DNA -- even though statistically there would be a high-level of confidence.

I love the birther issue, it is so ridiculous it gives the kooks a chance to out themselves.

Paglia's an excellent and interesting writer; however, her "facts" and "logic" are quite lazy.
