Look, I'm not saying that Obama is an intellectual tour de force...I'm not arguing in his favor at all.
But there is no way that she is anything beyond a very mediocre IQ at best. The way she destroyed herself in those VP interviews leaves no room for doubt. She had MULTIPLE OPPORTUNITIES to say something smart about herself, about foreign policy, about Constitutional issues...and she came out sounding like a 5th grader who didn't pay attention in class. It was appalling. And highly embarrassing. Those were not "gotcha questions" - they were basic questions that we should expect potential national leaders to be able to handle. Any number of potential GOP candidates would have done (and have done) way better.
There are plenty of conservatives who are very intelligent - she is simply not one. She's a celebutante. It's not hard to join the demagoguery bandwagon speak in broad platitudes and hyperbole about "socialism." That doesn't mean you know jack.
Surely I am not the only one that has noticed that the leftists have come swarming out of the woodwork to savage Palin, but have not commented at all on what she has said regarding Obama? Attack the messenger but ignore the message, liberals just never get tired of playing this old, very tedious game, do they?
More brilliant wisdom comes out of Gov. Palin's mouth in an average week, that all the collective mouths of all Liberals, Socialists, Progresssives and Communists in decade, (including the wanna-be trough-sloopers on CD).
This is the funniest thing I've ever read on C-D. You ought to take this schtick on the road. You'd have 'em rolling in the aisles with this routine.
After losing election with McCain, comes quitting her job as governor, after quitting her job as governor she gets a job with Fox, while starting a reality show.
They may not be "soviet", but they are communists.
com·mu·nism (kmy-nzm)n.1. A theoretical economic system characterized by the collective ownership of property and by the organization of labor for the common advantage of all members. 2. Communisma. A system of government in which the state plans and controls the economy and a single, often authoritarian party holds power, claiming to make progress toward a higher social order in which all goods are equally shared by the people. b. The Marxist-Leninist version of Communist doctrine that advocates the overthrow of capitalism by the revolution of the proletariat.
Whatever you call it, the above IS obama's vision for America.
I will bet every single dollar I earn for the rest of my life if you can corroborate ONE thing you said here, namely that Obama, France, or Sweden are communist according to your definition. Please please PLEASE show me where Obama said he wants the government to control the entire economy and distribute goods evenly! Show me where it says that France or Sweden only permit collective ownership of property! Can you tell everyone where you found these facts? It might actually be very informative for the rest of us if you can divulge your secret sources for these things! Why hide them???
