And what exactly are we getting in return from Russia?
Russia has already made it clear, no new sanctions against Iran. So, we abandon our allies, once again, for the sole purpose of showing the bad guys how nice we are?

==>The government has shared vital military intelligence with such longstanding enemies as perfidious Albion, the Hun, and the subjects of the Japanese empire.

How long will Americans stand still for such decisions by the Obama administration?

Your history of continually bashing Obama, fact based or not, says this was just another lame attempt.

And yes, you most certainly did say something of the kind. And this is relevant to the topic, it sheds light on your credibility.

Why thanks, you've just totally proven my point.

As you can see, I didn't say anything of the kind. Just because the poster I was quoting had that ONE LITTLE LINE about balloons, doesn't make it so.

This line;

Proves exactly what I said - I didn't say anything of the kind, but of course you focus on one line instead of the whole post. Maybe I should have just erased that one little line out...but then, we wouldn't have the current embarrassment of you trying to say I actually said that. Really, just give it up.

Just stop with the nonsense and ridiculous balloon theory. Really, just stop.:smack :

But thank you again for going back a year into my posts to prove MY point - I never said it.

Really, if you're so desperate to talk about balloon pontoon floats, start your own thread and stop trying to muddy this one up with such nonsense. I'd say it sheds more light on your credibility - the lengths you will go to in attributing something someone else said to me is astounding.

How do we go from me touting my prediction about Palin's role in the election/politics, which is pertinent to the thread to the ridiculous balloon barge cavalry meme? Totally off topic and absurd to say the least.

Dang....is that the best you can come up with?

Really, TRY again to stay on topic.

Great advice on a RANGE of issues - where are those that say she never gives solutions to the problems we are facing? If they stick to what they ran on and their principles, they should have great success.

Can I just give a BIG thanks to the Left, who harassed and hated on Palin so much, they forced her to resign her office in Alaska, which then resulted in her being FRONT AND CENTER as an obama critic, as the woman who did more to make sure the TP was victorious and KEPT them froming breaking off into a third party, which would have been disastrous and would NOT have resulted in the HISTORIC wins the GOP saw on Nov 2nd.

Thanks so much.
The 'guru' of the Republican party is a money grubbing, conniving, greedy, power-crazed, empty headed, screeching ditz who thinks Africa is a country and likes to kill?

OK.....PERFECT! Speaks so well, and accurately, of the Repugs!

""hated on Palin"...what quaint grammar...

Now, to the point, please provide proof that anyone, newbie Congressmen or not, READ the letter.

Anyone can write anything (obviously)....

Did readers take it seriously ???(not everyone is consumed and blinded by lust for Palin like SOME are(wink, wink).....

Yeah, but look how brilliantly she has put obama on the defensive about his policies, look how wonderfully she has brought to light his lies and failures, over and over again in the press, which is all too happy to widely air her postings and criticism?.

She has played her role even BETTER than I predicted what it would be.

I had no idea she would become the glue that keep the GOP and TP from splitting the vote, thereby resulting in an HISTORIC election across the USofA, that engulfed not only the House, but state legislatures and governorships at a record pace.

We can AGAIN thank the Left for making this all possible.

Take a bow.

Propaganda, you betcha Issues, not so much.

Of course, if you actually read the letter then maybe you could come up with something you disagree with, something to discuss and debate. That's ok though - she has a great habit of tweaking the Left for all they're worth and they take the bait each and every time.

I read the entire letter and as usual I find she is wrong on the vast majority of her advice and attempts to make the point that everything is the Demos fault. She also seems to think that House Reps are responsible for relations with other nations, once again she does not actualy know what peoples Jobs are, another reason she is not qualified for anything other than sheep herder. Want to discuss any of her typical rightwing rhetoric and propaganda please feel free to list one or any set of comments there is plenty of material open to discussion but to post an entire list of babble from the quitter/talking head and expect anyone to address the entire list is just ludicrous.
