Sarah Palin is tolerable when she's simply a mother- even a working mother. If she's talking about her kids or home life, she's tolerable. And she's a typical mother. Not great. I know great parents (mine for instance) and she doesn't fit in that category. As a "tolerable" person I shouldn't have to know about her because there is nothing of interest there, and when she gets into politics of any form, she becomes a fucking idiot and makes me wish that women didn't have rights.
Do the Palin haters here believe that Republicans and conservatives hate the opposition as much as they hate Palin? And cottonwoods: You are one misguided person. Did you know that the Weather Underground was infiltrated by CIA back in the 60s? The CIA plant later said the W U top dogs (including Obama's friend Ayers) discussed having to put 25 million people in "re-education camps" in the South West Desserts, and execute approximately the same number that they figured could not be re-educated.
´she is good entertainment, and if you agree she is a sexy women see my comic look at what president obama and bush would really like to do to her away from the political arena
Most rightwingers won't even listen to authorities and experts within their party who tell them a Palin run for the Presidency or even a Presidency would be a "disaster". Part of me believes these fascists should get her as a President and a republican/tea party Congress to go with it. Let them finish the job George Bush started, destroying America as we knew it, alter the Constitution they claim to love and take us back 200 years. The rest of us will be jailed or silenced by them anyway.
@cottonswoods What parts of the U.S. Constitution do left wingers cherish? And what parts do right wingers not cherish? I knew this would be a tough one for you but you kinda asked for it.
@J5MARLON I have read the constitution many times. We on the right cherish the constitutions' every article, section, & amendment. Your assessment is way off base. Conservatives consider selective reverence of our constitution abhorrent and un-American. Want amendments? Fine. But the constitution is what it is...the whole thing. For us all. Have you heard any reps pr senators poo poo the constitution in violation of their oath to uphold and defend it? I have. Several. All left wingers.
@newdimensionfilms I don't have a problem with the residents getting royalties. And at least Palin got the royalties flowing by cancelling the contracts held by corporations that were just sitting on it.
I don't have a problem with it either, I think it's a good thing for Alaska. I just find it ironic that her state does exactly what she criticizes other people of.
@newdimensionfilms She made sure the contract and Alaska's laws allowed for the royalties to benefit Alaskans. What she is critical of is taking excessive money from one group and giving it to another, and borrowing against our great grandchildren's future when the economy can't support such.
@newdimensionfilms I don't think that after an Oil Corp. signed a contract that pays royalties to Alaskan citizens the Governor was "taking" from the oilcompanies. It is public land. If you owned it they would be paying you royalties instead of Alaskan citizens. Again, Palin is critical of the spread the wealth schemes that are born in very liberal circles. Our country was founded on the principle of equal opportunity for all, not equal outcome. Charity? Yes! Give til it hurts. It feels good.
"I don't think that after an Oil Corp. signed a contract that pays royalties to Alaskan citizens the Governor was "taking" from the oilcompanies."
Uh, yeah, she was. Where do you think the yearly dividends came from? It cut into the oil companies' bottom line. Every company and person in this nation gets their wealth by using a system that was built by others, that's why we make them pay some back. No one gets rich on their own.
@newdimensionfilmsRoyalties are simply the cost of doing business. If you don't want to call the money that Alaska got from the oil people royalties that is up to you. If I get permission from a land owner to harvest Fox pelts on his property and give him 20% is he "taking" from me? The system set up by others is called the Constitution of the United Sates of America, and yes people can get rich on their own within our system. If government gets bloated, however, few people get rich. as in USSR
Sarah seerms like a nice lady, but I don't think that she's meant to be the president! Especially if she is completely against what so many people are for.

If she is dumb do you think the McCain campaign manager would have chosen her after learning everything about her from college grades to favorite toothpaste?
@leafyutube Have you ever seen her without that thick layer of makeup or the beehive with hairpiece and fake extensions hairdo?
But... your sentiment is typical of many republican men. Bottom line her popularity with them is based on..**sex** and seriously, not much more. Its why they tolerate that screeching voice and forget to pay attention to the utter inanity coming out of her mouth. She sounds like Betty Boop or nails on a chalkboard, I can't make up my mind which.
Oh gosh, do I ever love Sarah Palin! She is such a straight-shooter and is kind of cute too!!! Yippee!!! Vote for me, I'm so gosh darn sweet and lovable!
I do not why McCain chose this woman as his running mate. She is an interesting person, but was not ready for a high executive position. I think that Mitt Romney would have been a better running mate for McCain. I also believe that Hilary Clinton would have been a better running mate for Obama.

@9886635574 well she obviously not dumb. For example, I don't agree with Hilary Clinton one bit. That doesn't mean that I think she's dumb. She believes in what she believes in and I believe what I believe. The only reason you should be calling her dumb is for that annoying accent..lol. I hate it, yet I agree with her views. Most of them atleast
@ABCDCBA856 No, she is dumb. Lucky, but dumb. She got lucky McCain brought her to a national level, where a niche of society found appealing. As she is exposed for not being all that, her niche is reducing in size.
She is most definitely dumb. She is grossly ill-informed.. but her JUDGMENT is horrendous.
I agree with Barbara Bush, Steve Schmidt, Karl Rove and other republicans. And I'll just add, this woman is an **embarassment** to hardworking, intelligent, well educated women everywhere... especially those and their male counterparts who NEVER **QUIT** a job because they had problems to deal with. Instead, they reconciled those problems and did the right and responsible thing.
Pioneers, give me a break, her parents both had nice middle class school district jobs. Okay it was more rural than most, but pioneer, no way. She acts like she grew up in log cabin with an outhouse and had to hunt for food when hunting was sport not a necessity
I gotta say when she's talking about the reverend and talks about political correct-ness...I had to pause the video to write this quote. Those are the words that I have been saying nonstop. Thank you Sarah Palin for speaking the words most of us can't speak of. God Bless you and your family!
The more she slammed Rev Wright, the more she left herself and her crackpot fundamentalist end times church open to criticism. "God Bless You" how corny and sappy. Who exactly is stopping you from speaking your "mind"? The clothes only went back AFTER the story broke.
Now that is really immature to bring somebody's mother in the picture are you on steroids? There are some side effects like uncontrollable anger. I hope that you and your family are okay...they deserve to be happy and so do you...have a wonderful day.
Yeah I'm a lefty what are you going to do about it you right wing, racist,
hate monging, waspy, self rightious,
money grubbing, self serving, Bush/ Cheney cock sucking, holier than fuckin thou, two faced, backstabbing, congressman always cheating on their wives, lying, ratpublican son of a bitch!!!!!!!!!!! You and Palin with her retarded yocal ass can both drop dead!!!
I don't believe Sarah Palin is stupid for one second. You can't deliver speeches like she does and be stupid. I think her problem as the VP candidate in '08 stemmed from being tossed in the race about two months before the election and her inexperience with dealing with the national media. I watched "friendly" interviews of her during the campaign and even then she seemed awkward and uncomfortable. However, I think she is starting to gain confidence with handling the national media now.
The aatacks on Palin are weak with no substance. AP is using 11 reporters to "fact check" her book. Obama has written two books and AP has not bothered to fact check either. She has weathered all of these viscious attacks with dignity and class. She is the only Reagan conservative on the radar at the moment. Keep on underestimating her.
I never liked Walters, she's just too stupid, always was. Alaska is IN America you stupid bitch. Walter's has had so much plastic surgery she can't change her expression.
@1980PintoMan That was a stupid response. Just because Alaska is in America, doesn't make it the ultimate American life. Illinois, Iowa, California and the other states are part of america also. This shows her lack of diversity and lack of understanding the many contradicting elements that make up the American society.
No she probably reads the news....it is not a "lack of understanding" that says the United States of America should be more run like Alaska where everyone works hard than in California or Illinois where all the state programs are bankrupted and nobody works and the few remaining hard workers in the states pay for everyone else to stay home and watch daytime TV.
Snorp: Actually Illinois is ranked 45th in federal dollars received while Alaska is ranked 3rd. That means the reason Alaska's programs aren't bankrupt isn't because everyone works hard, it's because they take more money from the federal government. Additionally, Alaska's residents don't have it as hard as Illinois' because of all the socialism they have in that state. Like giving all citizens a check just for being a resident and COLLECTIVELY OWNING the oil resources. Silly socialists.
That's not a fair measurement of the citizenry of Alaska. This money does not go to the people of Alaska. First, there aren't enough people in Alaska to account for the huge swaths of developmental land there owned by the federal government, the same institution which stops it for being used for resource production. Saying "the state of Alaska" and portraying it as money that goes right to the people without accounting for the fact that half of the land is owned by the feds is disingenuous.
Actually a lot of that money does go straight to the people. This year alone every resident of Alaska received a $2000 check as part of their share of the collective of resources. The additionally money left over gets put into the market, but not by market-driven forces and instead by political means.
That money was from a surcharge slapped onto big oil companies - where do they produce in this country?
Again, this would only stand to reason. This does not in anway imply that a larger sector of Alaska's population is on welfare as opposed to Illinois.
Trust me, it kills me because I live in Illinois to admit it, but I see it all around me. State pension funds are broke here, Mayor Daley this morning is slashing 2010 budgets, politicians are committing suicide, it's really awful.
Yes its a surcharge but the money from that surcharge still goes towards the people who collectively own the resource. The surcharge is collecting from those who are using the public resource. Additionally, if you look at percentages Alaska's population is 686,000 while the number of residents on welfare is approx 16,000 meaning 2% of the population is on welfare. Illinois' pop is 12.9 mil with approx 100K on welfare meaning .7% of the population is on welfare. Alaska 2%; Illinois .7%
Almost the whole Alaska state budget is covered by mineral and oil royalties, not normal taxes, it makes it easier to be popular when the residents not only don't pay taxes but get a check from the gov't
You're right. And the irony is that by receiving a check from the government for their share in a collective ownership of those resources makes Palin a socialist.
It's a collective ownership of resources by the citizens of the state. That's the definition of socialism. Palin has 7 people in her household. This year Alaskans received $2000 per person from the state. That means she got a check for $14,000 from the state of Alaska. For her to so adamantly oppose socialism means she should give the money back. It also means that she's either being intellectually dishonest, by contradicting herself, or intellectually failing for not understanding that.
Because that study liberals keeps referring to describes money received for every dollar that goes out of that state, it makes sense. Illinois has 13 million people. Alaska has 600,000. Illinois has the third largest city in the country, Alaska has Anchorage. Of course there are many high-earning tax payers in my city of Chicago who pay into the gov't. But the state of Alaska itself which much is owned by the fed'l gov't is 10 times larger in area than Illinois. It's more about equation.
So, what you have to compare is apples to apples, how much does the average citizen of Alaska earn and pay in federal income taxes versus the average citizen of Illinois. I think you would find that Alaska is dominated by middle class, laborers, etc. Wheras Illinois would come out to the same average but only because of the mighty rich up north offset by the states massive welfare recipients.
And it would! 15% of 57,000 miles (Illinois) which contains 13,000,000 people is a much bigger burden than 50% of 689,000 miles which contains 650,000 people.
Yes but what percentage of each state is developed? Illinois is much more developed than Alaska. Much of Alaska doesn't have roads. Juno, the capital, has no roads going in or out of the city.
Where are you getting the welfare statistics? And does this include ALL aid including medical cards, food stamps, and actual money?
Moreover; with Alaska's long and enormous area, things like the federal railroad, USPS, etc. naturally cost more money in operating expenses alone.
Also, as I stated most of the federal money spent there represents federally owned land. I bet Alaskans would love to have control over it. If the feds give them control, you'll see a major switch.
Well I actually found some even more updated statistics from the New York Times for 2008 and Illinois' 2008 welfare was at .4% and Alaska's is at 1%. Food stamps in 2008; Alaska: 8% of the population and Illinois is at 11%. So Illinois' food stamps are higher but overall welfare is lower.
In regards to Alaska's land, the fed owns 77 million acres while the state owns 22 million. Of the 77 million much of it is mountainous and unlivable. Plus Alaskans don't want their wilderness removed.
I grow up in Illinois...sadly and while we might be more devolped it doesn't mean that we don't have far worse problems. Starting with our corruption with not only our Govenor but also our Mayor of Chicago...who most people can agree is a sleezeball! Our Govenor's are no better one is already in jail while his wife is dying, the new, most famous one now also has a trial pending as does his wife. Moving on we also have went after the Olympics in 2016 and yet have no $! Illinois=worst place!
I believe that a state's "personal" political problems are more meaningful than their state levels. Because when it comes right down to it people don't say, "Ohh look Illinois has 12,901,563 my God they a lot more developed than Alaska!" No, they say, "Hey look Illinois...the most corrupt state in our Union and yet our President came from there...huh makes you wonder..."
Actually it doesn't make you wonder. It's logically fallacious to, evidence free, assume that because he lived in a state where there were corrupt politicians that he is a corrupt politician. And mentioning personal political problems has absolutely NOTHING to do with what I was talking about in the first place.
Kornwasntcool! Come on up here to Alaska! We have plenty of (real men), not city libtard fucks like you down south! We can take care of "your problem"! NO SHIT!!!! Your kind down south has no idea about Palin, Alaska,etc.. You are brainwashed by "the mainstream media"! Want to dispute this? Answer this! Who owns Cnn,Abc,Cbs,nbc,etc... Libtards! Tell me they aren't biased! Ever notice you never even heard about Vp pick Biden during the election? You that afraid of a straight up,Ak, real woman???
Man what a fucking looney bitch.I watched her and I had to turn the sound down on the tv,that voice fucking makes me want to stick a fork in my head.If you Palin folks get her in we as a nation are fucked,really fucked!Shes Bush in a dress,maybe even more stupid.
It should've been a pretty logical decision to not attack Obama with Jeremiah Wright. Clinton tried to attack him on that AND Ayers during the primaries and look at how well that turned out.
Sarah Palin is the liberal's Antichrist. If she'll take on and clean up corruption of her own people, the party's over for the liberal left. She's like the breath of fresh air that America has needed for quite some time. If she doesn't run for president, I hope she at least gets a cabinet position. America needs her.
@NAGGERNUTZ Yeah your country needs a idiot for president. How is it possible for you guys to be so ignorant? This chick is dumb as fuck. She doesn't know anything about anything. All you care about are looks wit and faith. How about actually voting for someone who knows what the fuck they are doing, or at least know anything? Her answers, I mean 10 year olds know more then her.
No dude, we've already got the idiot. This bowing imbecile Obama doesn't have an economic clue. Unemployment under Bush was 4.4%. It's over 10.2% under the demotards. Kind of makes me wonder what kind of moron would support a president and a party that's created the worst economy since the early 80's when another demotard moron of a president drove unemployment through the roof. Sarah Palin is a rocket scientist in comparison. America needs her.
Why would it reciprocating of me to express sympathy for those of us who have fallen for the fallacy of the bible. Why should I nominate one of them as one of my leaders? You vote what you believe in and the bible is from human's past it has severed a purpose and now we must evolve away from it. It is quite repulsing it calls for a person’s death for working on the Sabbath, how many people in America's work on Sunday thousands.
@ttopperr - Again, you're not getting it. All I'm saying is, I respect your right to not believe. Why don't you respect those who do? Why so much intolerance?
I’m so bigoted about the belief in religion because it can and does contaminate our current shared society of America and why should I knowingly allow asinine beliefs to be rampant in it; when the only thing that needs to happen is to disregard or unlearn a falsehood that is believed to be true. Sound simple it’s not when people are tricked it is much more difficult for them to accept the truth.
It's not that I don't believe. I just choose not to believe in any apparitional deity that has been offered to me. I believe in my self I am my own god of my own universe just like you are your own god of your own universe. The sooner everybody gets in line behind that belief life on earth will be much simpler.
Difficulty with change is a human affliction it just that the Reps. currently have horrible politicians that want to be president. I truly hope that the mid-term elections balance out the power vacuum in Washington DC. Our government was meant to work smoothly with each side not to hard Left, Dems, or hard Right, Reps.
@ttopperr - I can go along with that, to an extent. I believe America is a center-right country. Obama campaigned as a moderate, but showed signs of being far left. Scary to me. After the election, he went far left. I believe Obama will ultimately be responsible for America moving even farther right... and we see that happening now. The republicans have better presidential prospects than the democrats do right now. If not, then who? Obama again? LOL. Hillary? Not a chance.
@NAGGERNUTZ Obama didn't run as a moderate he ran is a democratic even the name means anti-establishment and as we saw last night from the mid-term elections a new dimension of political party has been formed. With it being a new brand I don’t expect too much from it but it is did throw a wrench into the GOP governing machine. Hillary might not be a bad person and its the Reps haveing a hissy fit about Obama being black and prisdent that has slowed our goverment down. Reps. are Racist
@ttopperr - Well, I was about to compliment you for being level headed. Then you went for the race card. And you were doing so well. Please don't respond to me anymore unless you can let go of the race baiting.
@MaximusRelaximus - We already have a lying, buck passing, blaming everyone but himself, no-experience, Chicago thug as a president. We certainly couldn't do much worse than that. Sarah Palin would be a breath of fresh air in comparison.
@ttopperr - I appreciate and respect your opinion, though I disagree. If you don't believe in God, that's fine. But it would behoove you to reciprocate some degree of tolerance to those who do.
@ch1aka2 - Before you start tearing someone else apart, why don't you get your own life in order. Talk shit when you've accomplished half as much as Sarah Palin. Get used to her, she isn't going away.
You Americans never cease to amaze me. Are you really considering putting this person in power?

I don't believe Sarah Palin is stupid for one second. You can't deliver speeches like she does and be stupid. I think her problem as the VP candidate in '08 stemmed from being tossed in the race about two months before the election and her inexperience with dealing with the national media. I watched "friendly" interviews of her during the campaign and even then she seemed awkward and uncomfortable. However, I think she is starting to gain confidence with handling the national media now.

I live in Illinois. I know.
snorp73 2 years ago
Snorp: Actually Illinois is ranked 45th in federal dollars received while Alaska is ranked 3rd. That means the reason Alaska's programs aren't bankrupt isn't because everyone works hard, it's because they take more money from the federal government. Additionally, Alaska's residents don't have it as hard as Illinois' because of all the socialism they have in that state. Like giving all citizens a check just for being a resident and COLLECTIVELY OWNING the oil resources. Silly socialists.
CaptainNeatbeard 2 years ago
That's not a fair measurement of the citizenry of Alaska. This money does not go to the people of Alaska. First, there aren't enough people in Alaska to account for the huge swaths of developmental land there owned by the federal government, the same institution which stops it for being used for resource production. Saying "the state of Alaska" and portraying it as money that goes right to the people without accounting for the fact that half of the land is owned by the feds is disingenuous.
snorp73 2 years ago
Actually a lot of that money does go straight to the people. This year alone every resident of Alaska received a $2000 check as part of their share of the collective of resources. The additionally money left over gets put into the market, but not by market-driven forces and instead by political means.
CaptainNeatbeard 2 years ago
That money was from a surcharge slapped onto big oil companies - where do they produce in this country?
Again, this would only stand to reason. This does not in anway imply that a larger sector of Alaska's population is on welfare as opposed to Illinois.
Trust me, it kills me because I live in Illinois to admit it, but I see it all around me. State pension funds are broke here, Mayor Daley this morning is slashing 2010 budgets, politicians are committing suicide, it's really awful.
snorp73 2 years ago
Yes its a surcharge but the money from that surcharge still goes towards the people who collectively own the resource. The surcharge is collecting from those who are using the public resource. Additionally, if you look at percentages Alaska's population is 686,000 while the number of residents on welfare is approx 16,000 meaning 2% of the population is on welfare. Illinois' pop is 12.9 mil with approx 100K on welfare meaning .7% of the population is on welfare. Alaska 2%; Illinois .7%
CaptainNeatbeard 2 years ago
Although to be fair, you are right that Alaska has a higher median income with an average of approx. $68K while Illinois' is only approx $56K.
CaptainNeatbeard 2 years ago
Almost the whole Alaska state budget is covered by mineral and oil royalties, not normal taxes, it makes it easier to be popular when the residents not only don't pay taxes but get a check from the gov't
MongoloidBabyUSA 2 years ago
You're right. And the irony is that by receiving a check from the government for their share in a collective ownership of those resources makes Palin a socialist.
CaptainNeatbeard 2 years ago
lot's of governments give settlers incentives to move to a harsh distant place to settle, it is more like that than some welfare state handouts
MongoloidBabyUSA 2 years ago
It's a collective ownership of resources by the citizens of the state. That's the definition of socialism. Palin has 7 people in her household. This year Alaskans received $2000 per person from the state. That means she got a check for $14,000 from the state of Alaska. For her to so adamantly oppose socialism means she should give the money back. It also means that she's either being intellectually dishonest, by contradicting herself, or intellectually failing for not understanding that.
CaptainNeatbeard 2 years ago
So actually it's those people in Illinois that are working hard and in Alaska they're more lazy, at least in regards to federal money.
CaptainNeatbeard 2 years ago
Because that study liberals keeps referring to describes money received for every dollar that goes out of that state, it makes sense. Illinois has 13 million people. Alaska has 600,000. Illinois has the third largest city in the country, Alaska has Anchorage. Of course there are many high-earning tax payers in my city of Chicago who pay into the gov't. But the state of Alaska itself which much is owned by the fed'l gov't is 10 times larger in area than Illinois. It's more about equation.
snorp73 2 years ago
So, what you have to compare is apples to apples, how much does the average citizen of Alaska earn and pay in federal income taxes versus the average citizen of Illinois. I think you would find that Alaska is dominated by middle class, laborers, etc. Wheras Illinois would come out to the same average but only because of the mighty rich up north offset by the states massive welfare recipients.
snorp73 2 years ago
Actually according to the Tax Foundation Alaska is ranked 50th in federal dollars given as a percentage of population while Illinois is ranked 15th.
CaptainNeatbeard 2 years ago
And it would! 15% of 57,000 miles (Illinois) which contains 13,000,000 people is a much bigger burden than 50% of 689,000 miles which contains 650,000 people.

Yes but what percentage of each state is developed? Illinois is much more developed than Alaska. Much of Alaska doesn't have roads. Juno, the capital, has no roads going in or out of the city.
CaptainNeatbeard 2 years ago
Where are you getting the welfare statistics? And does this include ALL aid including medical cards, food stamps, and actual money?
Moreover; with Alaska's long and enormous area, things like the federal railroad, USPS, etc. naturally cost more money in operating expenses alone.
Also, as I stated most of the federal money spent there represents federally owned land. I bet Alaskans would love to have control over it. If the feds give them control, you'll see a major switch.
snorp73 2 years ago
Well I actually found some even more updated statistics from the New York Times for 2008 and Illinois' 2008 welfare was at .4% and Alaska's is at 1%. Food stamps in 2008; Alaska: 8% of the population and Illinois is at 11%. So Illinois' food stamps are higher but overall welfare is lower.
In regards to Alaska's land, the fed owns 77 million acres while the state owns 22 million. Of the 77 million much of it is mountainous and unlivable. Plus Alaskans don't want their wilderness removed.

I grew up (for some time) in Illinois as well. 13 years to be exact. And I was talking about state levels not personal political levels.

I believe that a state's "personal" political problems are more meaningful than their state levels. Because when it comes right down to it people don't say, "Ohh look Illinois has 12,901,563 my God they a lot more developed than Alaska!" No, they say, "Hey look Illinois...the most corrupt state in our Union and yet our President came from there...huh makes you wonder..."
gilmore632 2 years ago
Actually it doesn't make you wonder. It's logically fallacious to, evidence free, assume that because he lived in a state where there were corrupt politicians that he is a corrupt politician. And mentioning personal political problems has absolutely NOTHING to do with what I was talking about in the first place.
