Sarah is still going strong and hopefully laying groundwork for the defeat of Joe Biden in the 2012 election (after Obama resigns for crimes).

Former US vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin said the US government was wasting taxpayers' money and could aggravate poverty, said delegates at her first speech outside North America on Wednesday.

Some of those who attended praised her forthright views on government social and economic intervention and others walked out early in disgust.

"She was brilliant," said a European delegate, on condition of anonymity.

[HawkeyeLonewolf]

[Dr. Funkenstein]

A tip for both Obama and Palin...

Giving speeches is a lot easier than actually governing. Careful what you wish for...

"We're not interested in government fixes, we're interested in freedom,"


This is why the libtarded leftoids hate her. The snot drooling gubmint numbed mush brain left can not fathom not being babies in diapers pooping their pants and having mommy gubmint wipe their asses.

Whoopsie. I didn't see your thread when I was starting mine.

My link was from Bloomberg where the harshest criticism was that it was a speech that one man found bordered on boring .

Palin " who's never been to East Asia and isn't exactly famous for her mastery of public speaking or her expertise in finance and international affairs " might seem an unusual choice for an event that, according to CLSA, is Asia's premier investment conference providing unrivalled corporate access to 1,300 global fund managers from 32 countries, representing more than $10 trillion in funds under management

Palin " who's never been to East Asia and isn't exactly famous for her mastery of public speaking or her expertise in finance and international affairs " might seem an unusual choice for an event that, according to CLSA, is Asia's premier investment conference providing unrivalled corporate access to 1,300 global fund managers from 32 countries, representing more than $10 trillion in funds under management. CLSA spokeswoman Simone Wheeler says that orators at the forum often come from outside the securities industry. Our keynote speakers are always notable luminaries, and they usually address subjects that go beyond finance, such as geopolitics, she says. Our goal is to provide investors a diversity of views.

So, to clarify, CLSA barred the press because Palin would have to adjust her speech if the press was there?

All she said was that she'd alter the speech a bit for the media (which is totally understandable and commonplace) but the CLSA made the request.

Then he bashed the United States-that's you and me-although you probably didn't lump yourself into the 'United States' that Obama was trashing at the time. I haven't read the transcript, but I'm pretty sure she didn't trash our country, just the current leader.


Except that again that is not the point.

Every candidate bashes the opposite party's incumbent that's politcs. Does he bash US in your view FINE.

I will repeat it again this has NOTHING to do with what the boycott of Dixie Chicks was about. It was purely based on them attacking and bashing the president. NOW GO BOYCOTT the PALIN.

Hypocrisy at its finest.

[FreeAndClear]

If you can't tell the difference between giving an honest analysis of policy and out right bad mouthing the country then your partisanship is overriding your logic circuits.


That's some spin. She bashed the president on foreign soil = dixie chicks. You want to play semantics as to what was said or how it was said, then we can do that as well.

Well, if she can see Russia from her house, then perhaps she has really good vision and can see China too.

Sarah is still going strong and hopefully laying groundwork for the defeat of Joe Biden in the 2012 election (after Obama resigns for crimes).
Former US vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin said the US government was wasting taxpayers' money and could aggravate poverty, said delegates at her first speech outside North America on Wednesday.

Some of those who attended praised her forthright views on government social and economic intervention and others walked out early in disgust.

"She was brilliant," said a European delegate, on condition of anonymity.


:)) What a hypocrite.

Oh, so now it's cool to go overseas and badmouth the president, huh Sarah? Wonder what has changed...

[FreeAndClear]

You could be explained the clear difference and you still wouldn't get it.


Yeah I get it. Palin the great can do no wrong.

I also understand that one thing is talking about policy and another is slamming the president.

She slammed the president on foreign soil be it in curse words or in little winks and nods and giggles. I don't care and you would not either if this was a liberal...

[flannie]

Whoa you guys! Back this "Palin bashes US" train up a bit. She ain't no Dixie Chick.

Sarah Palin went to a foreign nation and bashed the President and the country.

Do you just need to believe this so very badly? According to the NYTimes article located here: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/09/24/us/politics/24palin.html?_r=1&hp

Quote:

Mr. Goodé, an African-American who said he did some campaign polling for President Obama, said Mrs. Palin mentioned President Obama three times on Wednesday.

“And there was nothing derogatory in it, no sleight of hand, and believe me, I was listening for that,” he said, adding that Mrs. Palin referred to Mr. Obama as “our president,” with the emphasis on “our.”


Mr. Goode is a regional marketing consultant who was in attendance. As an Obama supporter he would be the first to call foul if there were any.

Bottom line: Sarah Palin did NOT trash either Obama or the USA.

I'm pretty sure you don't know me. The Dixie Chicks can say whatever they want. If they feel that strongly about it, all power to 'em. And, yes, Obama apologized for being an American, in my view. That would be fine if he were just a singer or paid speaker. But he's the president of the United States Of America and represents this country. He does NOT represent my view of this country. In fact, he doesn't represent, or care to represent, over half of this country. (Yes, it's over half, now.)

She wasn't trashing the President, she was telling the truth about him. Obama, on the other hand, trashes the entire country -- you and I included -- and blames us for the world's problems.

The left thinks any criticism of Obama is a personal attack on the man himself and more specifically on his race which is a crock of crap. The criticism we have as conservatives about Obama are solely based on his policies and actions as President.

If Obama were running the country as a President should be, no one would be criticising him; except the liberals who don't believe in the United States as visioned by our founding fathers but a United States as envisioned by Joseph Freaking Stalin.

That doesn't fit the libtard's playbook.

They MUST deligitimize her because she's been the only Republican with stones in 20 years.


In fact, I wouldn't be surprized if bawney fwank idolizes her.

[rodlang]

I seem to recall our President going around Europe and Asia bashing the United States and our economic/foreign policies over the past 50 years. If the POTUS can bash our country overseas, then all bets are off.

Mike Barnicle of MSNBC had the same joke this morning. Must be going around all the libs blogs and websites. Letterman will probably use it again tonight. Such originality!

Great! :rolleyes: Now Sarah Palin is palling around with Communists?

[ChicoLibertarian]

And yet silly lib's still believe it was her that made that comment.

From the Christian Science Monitor:

"She repeated perhaps the most lampooned of her campaign remarks when discussing the importance of Alaska’s geographical location to the country’s defense.

'Yes, you can see Russia from Alaska'"

Straight from the horse's mouth. (And admit it, Sarah Palin is kind of horsey.)

They know she didn't, but they're liars and they HAVE to lie. Its what they do. Its in their genes. If they didn't love lies they wouldn't have a philosophy. because everything they fight for is a lie built upon lies built upon lies built upon THE Lie.

Just like the George Bush "plastic Turkey" lie they keep repeating. They know he was joking around when he picked up the table ornament and posed with it. But that doesn't matter to them. they made the lie and can't help but repeat it every chance they get because it is a lie and so it is sweet nectar to them. they love lies and all things destructive.

I believe your quote (from the Tina Fey joke) was Palin can see Russia from her house. Of course, she never said that but she did say you can see Russia from Alaska. It's factually accurate, although a bit of trivia.

Ok dude whatever you want to believe in.

To call Sarah kind of horsey show me you have some racial bigotry against woman.....are you gay?

[ChicoLibertarian]

And yet silly lib's still believe it was her that made that comment.

While people turned it into the joke, here is Palin's ridiculous statement about being able to see Russia from Alaska being some sort of foreign policy credential:

GIBSON: What insight into Russian actions, particularly in the last couple of weeks, does the proximity of the state give you?



PALIN: They're our next door neighbors and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska.

When did women become a race? Are you trying to be obtuse, or do you really not know?

You're correct, she did not make the statement about seeing Russia from her house. However, her attempt to use trivia to bolster her lack of foreign policy credentials shows just how poor of a pick she was.

[Conan]

Yeah I'm being obtuse.

But what do you got against women? Most real men find her attractive but you called her horsey. ;)

[ChicoLibertarian]

I love women, and my shot at Palin was unnecessary. Of course she's an attractive woman, though I think her jawline is too pronounced, as this image shows.

No doubt though, she's one of the more attractive politicians in a long, long time.

Hey, that's a really good point. There was a collective panty wad on the right whenever Bush got trashed. Water's edge and all of that.
Yeah. It'll be a good point just as soon as you can quote one sentence from the speech where Sarah trashes the United States or the President.

[supreme_war_Pig]

After the past 8 years of trash talk by the Dems, the old rules are out the window.

Libs have to deal with it.

Ah yes....the old "two wrongs make a right" defense. I time honored tactic used by BOTH sides.

Well, that is actually a good point. She didn't TRASH either. But we both know, everybody got all up in arms when Bush and his policies were criticized. Spin it any way you want Greg, but this is hypocrisy. But never fear, both sides do it, and we both know that as well.

Yes, of course; it's the ironclad "I know you are but what am I" defense.

Actually, never happened here except when the bashing was inappropriate.

Policy discussions that didn't cause comfort to our enemies was always fair game. UNLESS it was by government officials or elected officials -- that would be a no-no. Sarah is a private citizen.

[ChicoLibertarian]

Yes, of course; it's the ironclad "I know you are but what am I" defense.

I've never thought of Obama speeking at the UN as being on foreign soil before. It must seem like home for him.

She did govern Alaska and did quite well. Oh, but wait. That's right, it was ONLY Alaska. Who lives in Alaska except a couple hundred eskimos, right?

To put it in perspective, the mayor of Houston governs over 8x the amount of people than the entire population of the state of Alaska.

Dissent.

You can't seriously think this is the first time a private citizen of the United States has criticized a president's policy abroad, have you? The cliche you're trying to summon doesn't apply to that.

Al Gore's views were criticized because they were bat-**** crazy, not because of the location he happened to utter them.

In a similar way, all right-wingers get their talking points from talk radio daily. It's funny how you don't even have to turn on the radio to see what the day's talking points are - just check the Washington Politics forum and you're all caught up on the biased misinformation that's been put out for the day.

You'd be surprised how many like-minded people exist in this country. In fact, I challenge you to ask some of your conservative friends about some of these talking points and see where they stand on them. I think you would be surprised. (I understand that I'm making a HUGE assumption about you having conservative friends.)

I wouldn't worry about Palin. The main stream media has vetted her and the world has seen how dumb she is. She couldn't possibly be any sort of credible threat to the Democrats who are the world's savviest politicians. Let's Face it Sarah Palin just doesn't have the gravitas to take on the big boys.
