2011 - Return of the Rogue

Palin for America

Figured I would try a campaign button design.  Someone should stick this on a button :)

Dana Perino - Asshat

I don't like this Dana Perino Toad at all.

Sustaining the Beast

It is interesting to note that there is a concerted effort amongst a vast swathe of the media, and associated elite, to keep Sarah Palin at the forefront of peoples minds - in the worst way possible.  The image they want people to have of her are:

1. She's stupid
To reinforce this they refer to any one of the following;
 - she's doesn't read (Katie Couric)
 - she can see Russia from her house (Tina Fey)
 - she thinks North Korea is an ally (Glenn Beck)
 - she writes on her hand (Self)
 - she makes words up (Refudiate)

It doesn't matter that the first three aren't based on fact - if even the supposedly smart (yes you Krauthammer) buy into these then it's a simple task to get the great unwashed stupid Americans to believe it to be true.

2. She's not qualified to be President
To reinforce this they refer to any one of the following;

 - she's a quitter
 - she doesn't have gravitas (Karl Rove)
 - she doesn't have any foreign policy credentials
 - she's polarizing
 - she's uneducated


The interesting thing is that the "She's Stupid" approach will be the first to fall - and they know this.  You will start seeing fewer and fewer references to her mental faculties as 2011 rolls along.

For the other points, my thoughts are:

• the quitter effect will be reduced to insignificance by the end of 2011
• the gravitas one is an interesting one because it's usually associated with old white men. This is an interesting take on gravitas.  I think that if I listen to someone like Ronald Reagan, and then I listen to Sarah Palin, they are clearly two different people and based on that I could be made to say that Reagan has more gravitas than Palin.  But I could also read the following and infer gravitas:

 ...I hope and pray that we share the same bedrock beliefs.  It is our responsibility to preserve and pass on those beliefs ....they are what make the citizens of this great country Americans - not by blood, or race, or creed, but by heart.  May we always be so.  Sarah Palin - America by Heart

• the lack of foreign policy credentials is real - I think she will work on that in 2011.
• she's polarizing....no kidding Sherlock !  She makes leftists want to leave the USA. That's a good thing.
• she's uneducated....somehow I think that the lack of an Ivy league education may stand her in good stead with those great unwashed stupid Americans out there that Oprah has a lot of faith in

2011 is going to a beast of a year

 

Sarah Palin - Phoenix

I think it's funny how those who say she's a quitter, wish she would quit doing what she's doing right now.

I think she's not Reaganesque - she's Palinesque.  I can only imagine that 30 years from now, she will stand as a force in her own right; in part for finishing what Reagan left undone - the complete undoing of the leftist agenda

I think that there is an excellent opportunity to, when asked if she's "qualified to be President", to say this: "If your interpretation of being qualified to be President means I need to have snorted cocaine, like Obama, then no I am not" - I suggest she takes Obama out on this during the first Presidential debate.

Everyone knows she will run.  Everyone expects her to announce late.  I expect her to announce first.  In January 2011.  Oh and she will do so via her YouTube channel.
.
I believe that when she stepped onto the stage in 2008, she wasn't ready for what hit her.  I believe after McCain lost, she took it hard and the left almost succeeded in ending her politically.  They should have left her alone if that's what they wanted.  Instead they went to work, like the bottom feeders they are, to destroy her.  Sarah reloaded.  The 1000 year reign of Sarah 'Phoenix' Palin has begun.

Merry Christmas - 2013

Stupid Americans have a choice to make

I note that all and sundry are piling on Sarah Palin right now - I suspect they are doing everything in their power to prevent her from running by attempting to convince her that she's unelectable.  I think they've missed the point completely.

Sarah will run - and she will be in it to win it.  If she doesn't win it then what she will do is forever imprint her true record in the hearts and minds of Americans.  Reagan lost to Ford in 1976 but in doing so he gave lie to the media meme that he was an idiot - and look what happened in 1980. 

If Sarah doesn't wn the primary then she will return with a vengeance in 2016; whoever does win, will lose to Obama.  However, if she does win the primary then she will slay Obama.  I suppose, like Oprah says, stupid Americans have a choice to  make.

Krauthammer

I find it interesting that Krauthammer bemoans the lack of substance from Sarah Palin.   I have examined the evidence and from this have deduced the following:

• Krauthammer doesn't know how to work that Facebook Twittery thing on the interwebs so he hasn't read anything she has actually written
• Krauthammer told Sarah Palin to get out of the kitchen (or in it) when she unleashed the single-most effective refudiation of Obamacare by referring to their true nature - death panels.  Apparently she was supposed to write a 1000 word essay using wonky words that nobody except Krauthammer and his cohorts would understand. 
• Krauthammer is an intellectually dishonest asshat

A Merry Palin Christmas

I figured I would have some fun with this one :)
