Hey. Maybe you could run some candidates who would solve your problems by eliminating you're substandard citizens. That's what a majority of voters have done here. We've got the guy who is ridding our society of the substandard constitutionalists and patriots. By attrition of course.

It will take endless vigilance to prevent the false notion that "everything was fine under Bush, and then immediately went to hell under a spend-happy Obama" from taking root in the dimwitted national consciousness.

It will only get worse as time passes beyond our historical attention span, and Palin and others realize they have everything to gain and nothing to lose by promulgating and nourishing such an idiotic lie.

My how quickly we forget.
TARP was the package enacted while Bush was in office. Is that the one you're talking about?

Because Obama & Co. passed an additional Trillion + dollar bailout/stimulus after Big O took Office.

They were two different things, maybe that's the point of confusion here?

The Liberals and the Mainstream Media (yes that's redundant) are ratcheting up their foaming at the mouth level and getting their panties into the wad of all wads over Sarah Palin because they see something about her, something that scares the hell out of them:

A woman who can WIN the next Presidential race.

She has strong appeal with the demographic groups needed to win the election. Remember, Obama won over McCain (who was a weak and unappealing candidate) by only about 2%.

Palin appeals to enough swing voters and women to tip the election back to the GOP in 2012, and the Liberals pukes know it. That's why they have wasted no time attacking her at every turn, in every editorial, in every newscast, on every college campus, and on every internet forum where they can infiltrate with one of their leftist hate-mongering shills.

Is she a sure thing? No. Is she the greatest potential candidate to come down the pike since Reagan? Hell no.

But she can win.

I see it this way!!!
Yeah well, She lost interest in being governor during the campaign. All of the adoring crowds showed her there was money to be made. When she returned to Alaska with a newfound arrogance and lack of interest, she tried to jam the legislature with BS nominations, which were rightly rejected by the bipartisan committee.

She never lost her support base in Alaska, but she DID lose her support in government with her actions: letting her husband review personnel files, interfering where she shouldn't, making hairbrained nominations. It was a body of work that started long before the VP announcement and taken in total was alarming to people who suddenly realized that she was completely unequipped to run a state. Basically, the legislature usurped her power to prevent further damage.

The people she brought back with her were the same people she left with, Megan Stapleton chief among them. As her attack-dog-in-chief, Stapleton discovered that she wielded immense power by writing words for Palin to speak, and she is still doing so on Facebook and Twitter, and anywhere else that you see written items attributed to Palin, who is pretty much incapable of putting together a complete paragraph (witness her resignation speech).

When it comes to the reason for her resignation, there is no guessing to be done. She was presented with an advance cheque for $1.25 million just prior to her announcement. Anyone who thinks she resigned because of some altruistic motive is completely deluded.

Surely you could set your standards a little higher, you owe it to yourself.

The real point of confusion here is that some of us want to place blame squarely on Democratic leadership, and other want to place it squarely on Republican leadership. In reality the blame should be placed on the political machinery created by each party over the past 50 or 100 years. There is no difference between a Republican office holder or a Democrat office holder. They are both career politicians that are concerned foremost with validating their own agenda. It's called job security.

We have very few people once you get past the local levels that serve for the sake of serving and making things better for each individual citizen. Yes, the citizens are helped to a better life on occasion, but only as a by-product of enhancing the political agenda, workforce, machinery, etc.

Possibly, it depends upon how myopic your worries are?

I agree with this statement.
But to add to it, it has been passed down through generations of politician's. Much like family business'.

Yep, for sure!

Now if we could just get a bit more understanding on the religious front.
