He attitudes, her outlooks, her beliefs DEFINE her as a true patriot. We merely recognize that earned status in her.

I hope she runs, especially since she has around an 80% disapproval rating.

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh, another self-appointed judge of patriot status. How can you tell? Did she show you her little lapel pin or did she give you the secret handshake?

Why don't you get specific? C'mon...give us the insightful, wise and profound quotes of Palin on the issues that are relevant to Americans today. Let's have the links that give us a window into her great ideas and her solutions to the problems that face the average American. Let's have 'em. Put them out there for all to see.

One thing your posts prove...Palin's platitudes and empty rhetoric has influenced you to do the same.

Obama is pretty close to 50/50 approve/disapprove. I don't know what America some of you posters live in sometimes, but boy I'd love a pair of your rose-colored glasses.

Not me. I didn't need any cheap sun glasses to see the poser for what he is. 13 trillion, in the dark of night deals. As was said decades beore anyother black can run and expect to stand a chance to win.

This obama has un-done in 2 year what MLK did in 40. Is there anyone that isn't a crook under his wing?

Why do you say "pseudo-patriotic"? She is more patriotic than most of the liberals posting on C-D, who are America bashers.

What gives you the right to determine that she is not a true patriot? She is popular because she believes what the majority of Americans believe. She is as patriotic as the come.

You, obviously, were not "taken" by Obama. Who did you support (I understand if you don't want to tell me)?

What gives anyone the right to determine who is or who is not a "true patriot?" Loving America, or wanting the best for it, does not require blindly ignoring the very real problems this country has. What is an America-basher?

Although America sorely needs a visionary, seeing Russia from the back porch in '08, and the White House from the front porch in 2012, doesn't really qualify.
