Oooh! Oooh! Can I be first? I would love to be sued by Sarah Palin for something I wrote in a blog!!!!! It would make me famous and rich and definitely get me a job writing for Stephen Colbert. Cool!

And if she wants to sue, may I suggest this one:

"I can see it now, in June 2010 she's handed the presidency after McCain realizes the stress of being POTUS took too heavy a toll on his health.

She does the job for two weeks, then, on July 3rd....

Sarah: Todd! This job is boring. I thought bein' the POTUS would be kinda fun dontcha know. But they just want me to go to one meetin' after another, and do nothing but signin' papers.

Todd: C'mon babe, it was fun exiling that Letterman dude to Antarctica, wasn't it?

Sarah: Oh my, yes that was a hoot. Now he wishes he'd paid attention to my interviews about how to kill a moose, oh you betcha. But other than that, this job is no fun. I wanna do something mavericky.

Todd: Well, you could take Air Force One over to Putin's house and leave some burning dog poop on his door step... or, I know-- why not invite some singers over? You could get that guy who sings "Take This Job and Shove It!"

Sarah: Oh every POTUS has to honor the country singers this month, that's not mavericky. Oooh! Oooh! I know, instead of just singing about it, I'll say it for real. Take This Job and Shove It, America! I quit as President. In three weeks, I'm handing over the reigns to Nancy Pelosi. How 'bout that for going rogue!!!!

Todd: Babe, I love it when you get all mavericky like that."

I was not referring to a threat in her speech. I was referring to the threat she issued yesterday.

Bush ruined the economy. CHECK.
Sorry, that's not going to fly anymore - this is obama's mess, since he made it 10 times worse with his massive spending and coming taxation.

Quote:
Obama's foreign policy moves have been brilliant. CHECK.
Yeah, that's why he was FORCED to tell the world whose side he was on - the murderous Iranian regime or the democracy protesters. We still are not sure. And now it seems he might be getting a clue he should be against the likes of chavez, castro twins, ortega - that was really a telling thing, the POTUS aligning himself with the evil stooges.

Quote:
He did not pal around with terrorists. (Unless, of course, you think the Annenberg Foundation is run by terrorists.) CHECK.
Bill Ayers was a domestic terrorist - he was pals with him.

Anything else you'd like straightened out for you?

Not to mention the constant, never ending Palin bashing engaged by people of your ilk.

What was your opinion of Palin before she was selected by McCain? Didn't she have a 70% approval rating?

The "people of your ilk" comment was rude, Sanrene. Please try to control yourself.

My opinion of the gov. before she was selected by McCain...I wasn't thrilled with her stance on subsistence hunting and fishing (which seemed to favor out state sports hunters and fishers over the actual residents of rural communities).

Don't forget that the approval rating--which is pretty much in the ditch now, by the way--included those who rated her as doing a "fair" job. I may have given her that rating myself had I been asked.

Bush ruined economy. And denial of that fact "is not going to fly any more."

Iranians, in general, were exceedingly satisfied with Obama's response to the crisis. Even if you weren't.

Obama doesn't "pal" with Bill Ayers.

The woman is a fraud. She poses as a victim because she knows that her clueless, equally loony base will buy it--hook, line, and sinker.

Her observations about Barack Obama were factual, though. He really did/does(?) have some very questionable associations (Ayers, Wright, ACORN..). They were valid points that she brought up during the campaign.

That he palled around with terrorists - CHECK.

All true and the predictions have come to fruition.
"Predictions" - she is now some sort of GOP soothsayer?

Bush inherited a country that was still running on track when he started his presidency, while Obama inherited a mess from h*ll when he started his presidency along with a bunch of blood-thirsty hyenas (Fox News, Limbaugh, etc.) who howl 24/7.

The hilarious thing is that if this were a Democratic governor, the right-wing posters would be in venomous attack mode.

Kindly stop making wild accusations.

Like so many others you are failing to understand that the soon to be ex governor has far more political enemies among her own party than in mine.
