GOTP hopefuls complain but no plans on Libya

Isn’t it amazing how the Bungling Brothers Three Ring Circus, also known as the GOTP hopeful candidates for the 2012 nomination are all being very quick to criticize the President’s handling of the U.N. mandated no-fly zone in Libya, but not one of them has come forward with how they would have handled it. Well, except for Newt, who was for a no-fly zone before he was opposed to one?

And speaking of the Newt, he’s our first performer  in the center ring flip flopping across the ring, “You have a spectator in chief, not a commander in chief,” the Newt grumbled, one assumes meaning he’s for the no fly zone now? Or does he want boots on the ground this week?

At first Newtee very vocally demanded a no-fly zone after the President Obama said Gadhafi needed to be ousted, but then when the President began moving forward and the Newtster saw it was being billed as “humanitarian mission” he quickly decided he wanted nothing to do with that. He also first said in one interview that air strikes would oust Gadhafi and then said jets would not be able to end his rule now that fighting had gone into the cities. Newt’s effectively become the circus’ Push Me Pull You candidate.

Next to perform is Haley Barbour the Governor of Mississippi who is calling the President’s response to the situation “dithering.”

Barbour told a Jackson, Miss., radio station: “we haven’t provided leadership in this administration. In fact, the Obama administration’s position has been to say, ‘You know, we’re just one of the boys. We’re not going to try to be the leader.'”

Yeah, too bad Haley conveniently ignored the fact United States forces led the air strikes over Libya under the auspices of a United Nations resolution authorizing force in the interest of preventing a humanitarian crisis. He offered no opinion on an appropriate U.S. response, just the fact that this response lacked any leadership, as compared to what? The good old days of Sheriff Bush and his posse telling Bin Laden he could run that he couldn’t hide? Newsflash! He’s still out there!

Our juggling act will be performed by the great health care reformist himself, the former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney who said the President has been “tentative, indecisive, timid and nuanced.”

Romney says he supports the mission in Libya. He’s just not a fan of the President who started it or his approach to international affairs. So, he’s saying it’s the right mission, just the wrong guy going to get the credit? He didn’t detail what the Libya policy would be under a Romney administration.

“Thus far, the president has been unable to construct a foreign policy, any foreign policy,” Romney told Hugh Hewitt’s radio show. “I think it’s fair to ask, you know, what is it that explains the absence of any discernible foreign policy from the president of the United States?”

You’re kidding right Mitt? No foreign policy from President Obama?

How about the fact the President has restored strained alliances and friendships around the world? President Obama’s call for partnership, respect for international rules on prisoners, and acceptance of the responsibilities associated with climate change, transformed America from the isolated and lonely superpower of Bush/Cheney often seen as a threat to international order back into a leader in Europe, Asia and the Middle East. The President is pulling our troops out of the nightmare of Iraq, and plans to do the same for our troops in Afghanistan.

No circus would be complete with some Paws, and former Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty said President Obama erred by not forcing a no-fly zone more quickly.

“The rebels at that time were on the verge of overthrowing Gadhafi. They had the momentum. They were in position to do it,” Pawlenty told FOX PAC. He said President Obama left the rebels without backup and Gadhafi ready to squelch them. But he didn’t say what he would do differently now. So, if we had President Pawlenty he would have gone it alone to support the rebel cause? Pawlenty isn’t entirely wrong in his assessment. Things could’ve and should’ve moved much quicker. But then what?

And our last performer today is the 2008 GOTP vice presidential nominee and former Alaska governor, Palin the Jungle Girl, who whined, “We’ve received different messages from our president and from his advisers as to what it is that we are doing there and what the mission is.”

And how would Palin have handled the situation, if – “gulp” – we had President Palin? She offered her usual snarky complaints with no plan attached, “certainly there would have been more decisiveness.” So, she would have decisively done what? At some point she will probably release a You tube video decrying how she’s the real victim of the conflict in Libya.

Aside from the whining and complaints, notice anything missing ? Not one of these so-called candidates had anything of substance to say. Not one has offered anything of depth. Not one has said how things would be different if they were the King of the Forest. Well, “there would have been more decisiveness”. No plans, nothing.

The most amusing part of these latest attacks from the GOTP misfits is that they’re coming while U.S. forces are enforcing the no-fly zone over Libya to protect rebels trying to oust Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi – just as the GOTP demanded. Remember that, just as the GOTP demanded.

These “candidates” are all sort of saying President Obama is too slow and too reliant on international approval from the Arab League, the United Nations and NATO. Yes sports fans, what we really need is a President who tells the rest of the world to go jump in a lake while we preemptively invade whomever we darn well please, because that worked so well for the United States during the Bush/Cheney years.

Queen Sarah Thinks Westboro Baptist Church Ruling Reflects Lack Of ‘Common Sense & Decency’?

Sarah Palin responded to a ruling issued by the Supreme Court on Wednesday upholding an appeals court decision that protesting outside military funerals is protected by the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. Wow, could it be that perhaps her Majesty finally found a Supreme Court decision she disagrees with? She should call Katie Couric up and tell her she has one now, and wants to talk about it.

The court voted 8-1 in favor of the Westboro Baptist Church of Topeka, Kan. The decision upheld an appeals court ruling throwing out a $5 million judgment to the father of a dead Marine who sued church members after they picketed his son’s funeral.

Chief Justice John Roberts wrote the opinion for the court. Justice Samuel Alito dissented.

Roberts said free speech rights in the First Amendment shield the funeral protesters, noting that they obeyed police directions and were 1,000 feet from the church.

The Ice Queen, shortly after the ruling was made wrote on Twitter, “Common sense & decency absent as wacko “church” allowed hate msgs spewed@ soldiers’ funerals but we can’t invoke God’s name in public square.”

So, Palin only likes free speech when it’s what she wants to hear or say? Someone should probably tell her highness that Americans can talk about God all they want to in the public square; no one is stopping her, or anyone else, from doing so. Some public parks and squares even have crosses in them, like Bienville Square in Mobile, Alabama.

Of course, this morning, Queen Sarah is claiming her earlier tweet was misinterpreted to mean that she opposed the Supreme Court’s 8-1 ruling in the Westboro Baptist Church case this week.

Palin told the Daily Caller’s Chris Moody, “Obviously my comment meant that when we’re told we can’t say ‘God bless you’ in graduation speeches or pray before a local football game but these wackos can invoke God’s name in their hate speech while picketing our military funerals, it shows ridiculous inconsistency,” Palin said. “I wasn’t calling for any limit on free speech, and it’s a shame some folks tried to twist my comment in that way. I was simply pointing out the irony of an often selective interpretation of free speech rights.”

Ah yes, that makes everything much clearer now. Maybe the ex-governor should stop making abbreviated comments on Twitter, and start holding press conferences to disseminate her views? But all of that aside, Palin was criticizing the ruling, and she was trying to claim that one type of religious speech – her kind – should be allowed while other types – Westboro Baptist – should be limited.

Isn’t it amazing how people like Palin and Huckabee will make outlandish statements, clearly pandering to the far right Tea Party, but then try to walk back what they’ve said later? The Huckster recently said not once, but twice during a radio interview, that President Obama grew up in Kenya, and then tried to claim that’s not what he said, and Palin’s now claiming she didn’t criticize a Supreme Court ruling when she clearly did so.

Of course there’s absolutely nothing wrong with a presidential hopeful speaking out on Supreme Court rulings, or disagreeing with them. The problem is when a presidential hopeful Twitters abbreviated opinions to grab her daily 15 minutes of fame, without thinking, and then tries to change what she said. If she wants to be president she needs to start acting presidential and stop acting like a mean girl from a trailer park.

The court’s decision was the only one it could make. As disturbing, and hateful, as the Westboro Baptist Church’s signs and comments made at military funerals are, they are clearly protected under the First Amendment, and that’s what our soldiers, marines, sailors and airmen are defending with their lives; the right of morons and idiots to say what they want, to protest when, where and how they please. They die defending the right to speak, whether someone should say it is another matter.

Palin Broke State Election Laws, and Won’t Prostitute Herself?

So, former Alaskan governor Palin broke state election laws in her 2006 gubernatorial campaign and was consumed by petty grievances up until she resigned?

Wow, who would’ve ever guessed any of that?

These accusations come from one of Palin’s closest former aides Frank Bailey who is writing a book about his time with the Ice Queen, the contents of which were leaked to the media and widely circulated on Friday.

The whole, sordid, nasty, open and revealing conglomeration opens with an account of Palin sending Bailey a message saying “I hate this damn job” shortly before she resigned as Alaska’s governor in July 2009, less than three years into her four-year term.

She hated her job? I find that hard to believe. What she hated was having her hind parts handed to her by the likes of Katie Couric, and then being sent back to the oblivion of the Great White North after an embarrassing run as McCain’s VP choice.

Bailey, who joined Palin’s 2006 campaign for governor and became part of her inner circle, has never before told his version of the Palin story. He wrote in the book that he and his co-authors put together the manuscript with the help of more than 60,000 e-mails he sent or received while working for Palin. In his writing, he reveals Palin, as a candidate for governor, penning letters-to-the-editor in praise of herself, to be sent under other names. It blames the candidate for inflaming, rather than ignoring, scurrilous rumors. And it quotes her pledging to avoid appearing on any network other than FOX PAC, referring to the rest as “the bad guys.”

Writing letters to the editor, by Palin, about Palin; no real surprise here, after all Queen Sarah is her biggest and most adoring fan; and choosing FOX PAC as her only outlet? Well those “bad guys” sure made her look bad didn’t they? That nefarious gang of journalistic thugs, how could you Katie? What were thinking asking a Vice-Presidential candidate to reveal what she reads, or which Supreme Court decisions she disagrees with?

According to Bailey, in a June 2009 e-mail, nearly a year after her disastrous interview with CBS Evening News anchor Katie Couric, Palin is portrayed as still holding a grudge toward the broadcaster.

“She SUCKED in ratings before she stumbled upon her little gig mocking me,” Palin wrote, “She did almost lose her job before that VP interview …”

And she had to work so hard to trip you up Sarah. After all she gave you those really hard questions.

And what was the “hard” learned lesson Palin took away from her introduction to the national media? It was simple; ignore all television networks except for FOX PAC, which would later sign her as a contributor.

In announcing to aides her decision to speak only to FOX PAC, Palin described all the competing networks as “the bad guys.”

“Every time we participate with the bad guys we are telling viewers/readers: ‘go watch them! Tune in to what they have to say to bash us today!’ I can’t do that anymore,” Palin wrote. I am through with the idiots who use and abuse us — we can NOT win them over, I hate giving them ratings boosts.”

Palin concluded, “Lesson learned. Final one. Networks are not our friends. Talking to them harms my family, admin, record, reputation, Tripp, etc. No more.”

One chapter asserts Palin broke election law by coordinating with the Republican Governors Association during her 2006 campaign for governor. State candidates can’t team up with soft-money groups such as the Republican Governors Association, which paid for TV commercials and mailers in Alaska during the election in a purported “independent” effort, and Bailey swears the allegation was true. Palin and her aides marched along the block in front of the hotel again and again in order to allow a camera operator to capture footage for the ad, he said. “(Palin aide) Kris Perry, when orchestrating that nutty- parade at the hotel, was following the directions of the RGA cameraman and/or whomever he was working for,” Bailey wrote.

“Far worse, Sarah conducted multiple takes and knew exactly what was happening. She had, I suddenly believed, broken the law,” Bailey wrote.

Really? Queen Sarah went after “soft” money “illegally”? Was a “poser” for a commercial, with multiple takes? Palin seems to think she, and her family, are outside the rules the rest of us are hemmed in by. Is it because she sees herself in some kind of role like a Joan of Arc?

Bailey has said that her highness is an extremely paranoid individual who trusts no one, not the media, not the Democratic Party, but more especially, not even her fellow Republicans whom she attacked in a scathing e-mail in June 2009.

It seems when the GOTP couldn’t confirm that her majesty would attend a fund raising event, the TPGOP congressional campaign committees rescinded its invitation for her to speak in favor of former House Speaker Newt Gingrich. Palin reacted by typing a contemptuous assessment of the former speaker and the national party to her team in which she credited God for keeping her away from the Washington fundraiser.

“Yes, (Newt/GOP) are egotistical, narrow-minded machine goons … but all the more reason God protected me from getting up on stage in front of ,5000 political and media ‘elites’ to praise him, then it be shown across the nation.” Palin wrote in the e-mail.

“At some point Newt would have shown his true colors anyway and we would have been devastated having known we’d earlier prostituted ourselves up in front of the country introducing him and acting like that good ol’ rich white guy is the savior of the party,” she continued.

Palin went on to express another reason she was thankful to the Almighty that she wasn’t attending the fundraising gala.

“Plus, I had nothing to wear, and God knew that too. Party machinery sucks. I can’t tell you how much I hate it — nothing ever changes — we went through it before and after the VP campaign,” she wrote. “I’ve gone through it all my career. We just don’t fit into it, and maybe we should thank God for that.”

What kind of mean girl nonsense is this? She thinks she’s ready to be the President of the United States and she rants about how poor Cinderella had nothing to wear to the ball, and how since she was no longer the VP candidate, she had no fairy god mother to go out and buy her some more new threads? And, besides all that, God wanted to protect her from “prostituting” herself to the party elites? Too late! You walked on to that street corner when you accepted McCain’s “invitation” to be his running mate. But wait, perhaps I was too hasty in that assessment? Maybe she’s only “prostituted” herself to FOX PAC.

Pam Pryor, a spokeswoman for Palin’s political action committee, said she didn’t expect Palin to react. “Doubt she will respond to this kind of untruth,” Pryor said in an e-mail.

Yeah, right. She’ll respond to it alright, because her ego won’t allow her to sit quietly. She shouldn’t have responded to things that were said about the Tucson shooting, but she couldn’t resist. What makes any right minded person think she’ll keep mum on this? She’ll respond because it will put her mug back in front of the camera, and besides, when Sean Hannity calls she’ll run down the hall to her private FOX PAC studio screaming “Make up”!

Attack in Arizona Result of Glib Political Speech?

This is what happens when candidates like Sharon Angle glibly talk about using “2nd Amendment remedies”, or Sarah Palin speaks about “taking aim at Democratic Members of Congress”, or “reloading”. Words have consequences, and candidates, and talk show personalities, need to remember that.

Oh look, Congresswoman Giffords has a gun site on her in this Sarah Palin poster … go figure why these kind of people pull guns and shoot members of Congress.

“Republicans don’t retreat, they reload,” Palin glibly spews at countless TPGOP rallies.

“Americans (Republicans) are going to have to start using 2nd Amendment remedies if the voters don’t get it right,” former TPGOP senate candidate Sharron Angle told a crowd at a campaign stop last fall.

This kind of speech breeds violent acts …

The attack on Democratic Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and those who were with her last month might be the work of “a single nut,” said Democratic Rep. Raul Grijalva, whose Arizona district shares Tucson with Giffords’ district. But he said the nation must assess the fallout of “an atmosphere where the political discourse is about hate, anger and bitterness.”

People like former TPGOP Congressional candidate  Jesse Kelly among them. During his campaign effort to unseat Giffords in November, Kelly held fundraisers where he urged supporters to help remove Giffords from office by joining him to shoot a fully loaded M-16 rifle. Kelly is a Marine who served in Iraq and was pictured on his website in military gear holding his automatic weapon and promoting the event. But of course Jessie Kelly doesn’t want to accept that “targeting” your opponents plays into people like this. His “honor code” as a Marine only goes so far.

Sadly one of the victims killed in the attack refused to press charges people who had threatened his life.  In 2009, Judge Roll ruled that the case Vicente v. Barnett could go forward. The $32 million lawsuit brought by the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund (MALDEF) against Arizona rancher Roger Barnett (one of those good old white, god fearing christian fellas) on behalf of 16 Mexican plaintiffs charged that the plaintiffs were assaulted, threatened, and held at gunpoint by Barnett and members of his family. After Roll’s ruling – and prompted by several talk-radio programs – he was the subject of hundreds of complaining phone calls and death threats and he and his family were under the protection of the U.S. Marshals Service for a month. Roll declined to press charges when some of those who made threats were identified.

Funny how people like Sarah Palin think its just savey political speech to “target” opponents, and to portray them as “enemies” of freedom and democracy, but those who are “targeted” as a result, men like Judge Roll, choose the higher ground and don’t press charges, and then ultimately pay for it in the end.

‎It was Giffords father, 75-year-old Spencer Giffords, who wept when asked if his 40-year-old daughter had any enemies, and answered, “Yeah,” to The New York Post, “The whole tea party.”

Could Bring Down the Republic?

The day after the terrible murders at a Congressional event in Tucson, Arizona, the Reverend Beck sent an e-mail to the ex-governor of Alaska Sarah Palin, according to Beck he wrote:

“Sarah, as you know, peace is always the answer. I know you are felling the same heat, if not much more on this. I want you to know you have my full support.”

He then encouraged her to get some protection because an “attempt on you could bring the Republic down.”

Excuse me? An attempt on Sarah Palin’s life “could bring the Republic down”? Really? It could “bring the Republic down”?

If one ever needed evidence of the delicate state of the sanity of those involved here, one wouldn’t ever have to search any further. To think, much less to say, that if someone attempted to kill Sarah Palin it could “bring the Republic down”?

Reverend Beck, just who do you think Sarah Palin is? In the 200+ year history of the Republic there have been 13 Presidents of whom we know there were assassination attempts, and at least four Presidents have been assassinated, and through all of that the Republic has remained strong. Through the assassination of Robert Kennedy, and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., the Republic remained solvent. But you believe if there was an attempt on Sarah Palin’s life it could “bring down the Republic”?

I ask again, who do you think – believe – Sarah Palin is? She isn’t a Messiah any more than President Obama is the Messiah. She isn’t someone who is on an equal with the “Founders” of the nation.

You Mr. Beck are sadly delusional in her worth to the Republic and in your own worth to this country. She is a former mayor of a one horse town, and ex-governor who quit when she couldn’t take the heat, and you are a two-bit charlatan who can only remain popular as he feeds his fans one more lunatic idea after another. If an attempt was made on either of your seemingly self important, self indulgent, pathetic little lives; I assure you sir the Republic would not fall. It wouldn’t gasp, and it wouldn’t even shudder. It would remain strong and vibrant, and keep plugging along. If the deaths of men like Lincoln and Kennedy, and the attempted murders of Theodore and Franklin Roosevelt, Reagan and Obama haven’t brought down the Republic, your deaths would nary even send a ripple across the surface.

Take a look in the mirror Glenn; you ain’t all that and a bag of potato chips; and neither is she.

What Are the Nine Most Terrifying Words?

As we approach the 100th birthday of Ronald Reagan many conservatives are quoting him, and playing back his famous speeches, and swooning in awe at how much they think Sarah Palin is like him. Really, I’m not making that last part up, they are really swooning over how much they think Palin is like Reagan.

President Reagan famously said that the “nine most terrifying words” in his opinion were, “I’m from the government and I’m here to help.”

I hate to dispute that, but, those aren’t the nine most terrifying words, the nine most terrifying words are, “I am Sarah Palin, and I want your vote.”


A conservative recently said, “What is it about Sarah Palin that scares liberals to death? That she will take away their abortions? Promote freedom? Lower taxes? Get government out of our lives? Oh ya, those are some scary things alright!”

What “scares liberals” about Palin? It’s plain and simple, she’s an idiot; nothing else, just that. I can very easily tell you one thing (as someone who knew and worked for him) she isn’t Ronald Reagan.

On Palin and all the wonderful things she’ll allegedly do.

First, Roe – v – Wade is pretty well established law in the country, and if someone runs for President claiming they’re going to overturn it they’re one of two things, either a fool, or a liar, and possibly both.

Second, how will supporting the policies of the previous administration – which is what she has said she’d do – promote freedom? Through the unconstitutional suspension of habeas corpus (constitutionally a president can only suspend habeas corpus under two circumstances; against individuals who are in rebellion – as Lincoln did during the Civil War – and against foreign invaders), torturing of prisoners, sending the country into a war with anyone who seems to oppose the U.S.? And yes, she’s said she’d attack Iran. Where is it written, previous to the Bush Doctrine – which Palin didn’t know what was – that the U.S, can do whatever it pleases anywhere in the world?

Third, she’ll lower taxes? Hey Tea Party people, and Republicans, stop whining about your huge tax burden, we currently have the lowest tax rates in a long time; much lower than your parents or grandparents lived under. We have – for a very large part – a huge debt because Bush/Cheney ignored a fundamental economic maxim and conducted wars without raising taxes. Blame the President for the country’s debt, because I know conservatives will, but don’t be obtuse about it, admit where it came from in the first place, along with the crippling economy.

And last, how will Sarah get the government out of our lives? Oh yeah, by abolishing the Dept of Ed, and the EPA, and any other government agency or regulation limiting the newly acquired constitutional liberties of big business. So, you like polluted streams and rivers, and you like that minorities, women and children with special needs would have no protections in the classroom? You don’t want federal dollars going to the infrastructure of the country? Because it doesn’t say anywhere in the Constitution that the federal government can do those things. It also doesn’t say the President can send the country off to war, that’s a power enumerated to the Congress, not the President. Why? So, we don’t get into the mess we’re currently in.

So, that’s why liberals are “scared of” Palin. And, here’s a little secret. We’re not scared of her. In the world of political reality, she’s a 10 second sound bite. I hope she runs, I really do, because if she does, she will be exposed for the moronic fraud she really is. She won’t have to worry about the President illuminating just how unprepared she is, her fellow Republicans will take care of that. Oh, and here’s another little secret, when she doesn’t win the GOP nomination, or if it looks like she might not be able to get it in the first place, she’ll probably run as the Tea Party candidate, which will take votes from which party? So, please let’s see those Palin 2012 bumper stickers, let’s see those yard signs.

Is Palin an Idiot?

Yes Virginia, for the record, Palin is an idiot.


She was a mayor of tiny little one horse nothing town, which she left with a huge debt.

She was the Governor – until she quit under a very dark cloud of scandal for abuse of power – of Alaska for crying out loud!

She couldn’t name a single book, magazine, or newspaper she regularly read to keep up on things. Remember during the 2008 campaign when big bad Katie Couric “tripped her up”?

And speaking of Palin being an idiot, we don’t need to search any longer for evidence that John McCain wasn’t mentally fit to be President other than the fact he chose her for his running mate. She isn’t, in any way, Presidential, and if she’s an example of the “best” the GOP has to offer? On top of which, if she doesn’t get the nomination she’ll probably run as the Tea Party candidate, and that isn’t going to draw many votes from the left. But y’all go ahead and keep singing her praises, PLEASE.

Sputnik Brought About Downfall of the USSR?

During an appearance Wednesday night on FOX PAC with fellow propagandist Greta Van Susteren, former Mayor/Governor/Losing VP Candidate Sarah Palin described the President’s State of the Union Address as full of “WTF moments”, once again demonstrating very clearly to anyone who has the ability to discern fact from fiction that she is not Presidential material.

Palin claims to be this wonderful example of a conservative Mom, and Christian, and then she comes out with describing the President’s speech as full of “WTF moments”? What she’s demonstrated is that you can take the girl out of the Alaskan trailer park, but you can’t take the Alaskan trailer park out of the girl.

Of course, the biggest moment of showing just how truly ignorant she continues to be regarding not only politics, but especially history, came when Palin snarkily attacked the President for his reference to Sputnik.

“When he so often repeated this Sputnik moment that he would aspire Americans to celebrate. And he needs to remember that what happened back then with the former communist USSR and their victory in that race to space, yes, they won, but they also incurred so much debt at the time that it resulted in the inevitable collapse of the Soviet Union.”

Sputnik led to collapse of the Soviet Union?

Really?

Did you really say that?

Well, since Palin’s so fond of using today’s technology, let’s just Google “Sputnik” and see what we find.

Sorry, but checked over a hundred or so hits on Google, and the only ones claiming this are the ones showing her interview.

Ms. Palin has sadly proven, once again, first by her use of one of crudest phrases (“WTF”) just what kind of person she is; that, combined with her obvious lack of historical knowledge simply re-enforces what Kati Couric showed us in 2008; that she is in no way ready for prime time.

Please, now just go moose hunting or something.

People Are Trying to Muzzle Descent With Shrill Cries of Imagined Insults?

So, Sarah speaks, and of course she blames everyone else for what happened, and called her and others words as simply being part of “vigorous debate” in America. She called those calling her and others out as starting a “blood libel”. Claiming people are trying to “muzzle her descent with shrill cries of imagined insults”.

“Republicans don’t retreat, they reload” or “I hope that’s not where we’re going, but, you know, if this Congress keeps going the way it is, people are really looking toward those Second Amendment remedies and saying my goodness what can we do to turn this country around? I’ll tell you the first thing we need to do is take Harry Reid out,” are not “imagined” Ms. Palin.

(http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/sarah-palin/8255089/Arizona-shooting-Sarah-Palin-accuses-opponents-of-blood-libel.html)

Asking that you, and other so-called “patriots”, to not use violent rhetoric is not stifling you – or them – from exercising free speech or descent. Talking about “reloading” and “watering the tree of liberty” may be how people talk about politics in Wasilla, but most Americans try to leave the political speak of the 19th century where it belongs, in the the 19th century. You are not qualified to talk about “peacefully engaging” when you have time-after-time used discourse that is violent. Please do us all a favor and just fade away like all other failed vice-presidential candidates, your foot note is waiting.
