Re: Palin Speech

Before I start, can I just ask you a question?

Are you fucking kidding us?

McCain is irrelevant here. I see you don't understand that, other than the fact that he picked a live time-bomb, like himself, to fill shoes that he himself can't.

Contempt and anger and condescension are no substitutes for knowledge. You have to understand how the opposition thinks - and you seem to have no undrestanding in how Republicans think. You don't even express interest.
Trust me, I have great knowledge, as do most here. Tell me: why has she been utterly shielded from press interviews up until and including right now?
Quote:

The Beloved One is the focus of this campaign. Palin went after all the vulnerable areas for Democrats - both the stereotypes and the real issues, and there is often overlap.
Stereotypes and issues overlap? Care to indulge us with what you actually mean, dispensing with such BS?
Quote:

The left is so arrogant and contemptuous of conservatives that they have forgotten that there are real concerns out there.
Of course. Because this administration hasn't fucked anyone but the wealthy up in their asses, w/out the benefit of Vaseline, for 8 years. Go ahead and talk about those 'real issues'.
Quote:

Obama has never given the slightest indication that he understands that the world is a dangerous place.
Really? That's why he said he's bolster our troops in AFG? That's why he want's to send them into PKG? Do you tire of telling flat-out nonsense?
Quote:

How will he serve as commander in chief if he is a pacifist? He is stuffed with love - love that pours out and floods the universe. This is all very well as a joke, but how will he serve as head of the military?
Nonsense. He would invade PKG. You fear to recognize this. Why is that?
Quote:

How will his huge tax increases effect the economy? Or rather, how will they hurt the economy?
Tell me about those tax increases. Please be very, very specific.
Quote:

How will people who are not on the left fit into the world of Obama and his leftist friends?
Who know? Why ask stupid questions?
Quote:

These are genuine questions. The Democrats turn away from them with amused contempt.
No, they're not. I've seen nothing geuine or honest yet.
Quote:

Palin comes out and slams them on all these things.

The problem is that she - and the GOP - do not really have a positive message. That is probably enough for them to lose.

But it is nevertheless a close race. And Palin's speech is the clue as to why: if you care enough about polutics to listen and think seriously.
She's done. I see no serious thinking here, or honesty, whatsoever.
