Try acknowledging you hear the nation rise up and say no.

Excellent piece by Palin.

He seems to think we just don’t understand what’s going on because he hasn’t had the chance – in his 411 speeches and 158 interviews last year – to adequately explain his policies to us.

Candidate Obama promised us that his economic stimulus package would be targeted and pork-free, but President Obama signed a stimulus bill loaded with pork and goodies for corporate cronies. Candidate Obama railed against Wall Street greed, but President Obama cozied up to bankers as he extended and expanded their bailouts.
Step by step, through all his lies and broken promises.

Some of us knew the man behind the facade, way before he was elected.

I disagree. The president should lead the people, not follow them. But I wouldn't expect the person opining to understand such an advanced concept.

Where he wants to lead, the people don't want to follow, rightfully so.

Why would people be obliged to follow a ruinous leader and his radical policies?

Hubris, pure and simple.

Berry: Obama said "big difference" between '10 and '94 is "me" - Glenn Thrush - POLITICO.com#

"“I’ve been doing that with this White House, and they just don’t seem to give it any credibility at all,” Berry said. “They just kept telling us how good it was going to be. The president himself, when that was brought up in one group, said, ‘Well, the big difference here and in ’94 was you’ve got me.’ We’re going to see how much difference that makes now.” "

That's nauseating. If the GOP is smart, they'll have those words plastered on billboards all across America. People of all political stripes understand when they see and hear arrogance. A statement like this is damning.

Palin isn't listening to Obama or any Democrat. Palin has a different view that will only be appreciated after the demise. Not that her view is lacking of repair.

Whether you conservatives like it or not, Obama won the election, so stop making up propaganda and lies and try working on coming out with a real candidate for 2012.

Did you read the piece?

Can you dispute ANY of it?

Yeah, I thought not.
