Sarah Palin at CPAC: What topics will she touch on?

A gathering of thousands of conservatives is under way in Washington, D.C. The Conservative Political Action Conference brings together a who’s who in Republican politics and the tea party for three days of speech-making, panel discussions and networking. Activists, students, candidates and campaign staff are among those who will mingle, aiming toward one goal: booting President Barack Obama from office. Among the A-list is Alaska’s own Sarah Palin, former governor, vice presidential candidate, reality TV star, and frontier woman who’s branded herself in the political sphere as a not-to-be-messed-with mama grizzly. She’s scheduled to give the closing speech at 4:30 p.m. EST Saturday. Conference speakers aren’t shying away from hot-button topics that have become both battle lines and rallying cries for the upcoming election. Political hopefuls are therefore warned that hard lines on race and immigration could be awkward, reports National Public Radio, citing panel discussions on how the pursuit of diversity weakens American identity and a similar identity-themed discussion on immigration and borders. Joe Miller, the Republican U.S. Senate Nominee for Alaska who lost his 2010 election bid to incumbent Lisa Murkowski, has tweeted he’s “@CPAC & working 2 ensure true conservatives commit 2 Restore Liberty.” After his election loss, Miller founded the political-action committee Restoring Liberty. Core goals of the group include electing conservatives who believe in small government and will defend states’ rights under the 10th Amendment. The Washington Post is blogging from the event, offering highlights on the speakers and the crowd. On Thursday, the posts included Texas Gov. Rick Perry’s quip to Clint Eastwood’s politically over-toned “Halftime in America” Super Bowl commercial, and a recap of Herman Cain’s remarks in which the one-time presidential hopeful compared himself to the biblical David.

Who cares what topics she'll touch on? She's an unethical idiot. Here's an example of her legacy in Alaska - Sarah Palin QUOTE: “I am a commercial fisherman; my daughter’s name is Bristol,” said Ms. Palin, then a candidate for governor. “I could not support a project that risks one resource that we know is a given, and that is the world’s richest spawning grounds, over another resource.” "Many here took her words to heart. But as governor, Ms. Palin has helped ease the way for a proposed copper and gold mine of near-mythic proportions at the headwaters of Bristol Bay, the world’s greatest spawning ground for wild salmon." (Sarah Palin Truth Squad) Thank you so much Palin. Please don't name any of your future offspring after any Alaskan ground. We've seen how it affects your intentions and actions.

Palin is the ultimate political strip-tease, thrusting and rubbing her self all over a White House column. The dollars reign down and she gives them another sneak peek at what’s under that dress. See just how nasty America’s Top MILF will get for the cash at http://dregstudiosart.blogspot.com/2011/06/ecstasy-of-sarah-palin_15.html

Aapa, is there any wonder why the GOP have declared war on education? They want to change history to reflect their views not what really happened, the same way they try to distort the current president's record. What have the GOP done to help the country lately? Why should I vote for them? To the party of NO I have only one word for you when you ask for my vote, NO! Sarah Palin will say the same things that she always says, everything is Obama's fault, the country was ingreat shape under the leadership of Roeagon, who raised taxed and the deficiet. They don't mention what a disaster the last GOP president was, they don't even mention his name anymore. Anyway Sarah is just pandering for suckers to send her some more money, and some fools will! Do we really want to go back to that, I knaow I don't.

Interesting how many of these "constitutional conservatives" would like to repeal many amendments to the Constitution. They include the First, Fourteenth, Sixteenth and Seventeenth. I heard a Palin speech where Pat Boone was her fluffer. The nearly entirely white Christian audience was treated to a breathless word salad discourse on the Constitution by she who didn't know what a Vice President did. Of course, she couldn't have been expected to understand what only a Constitutional scholar could grasp. Here's what Article II says: "The Vice President of the United States shall be President of the Senate, but shall have no Vote, unless they be equally divided," and "In Case of the Removal of the President from Office, or of his Death, Resignation, or Inability to discharge the Powers and Duties of the said Office, the Same shall devolve on the Vice President." That's it. Nothing more, but too much for her "Africa is a country" and not knowing which three countries comprised NAFTA, pea brain. Rick Santorum seems to have gotten his grasp of geography directly from her, referring to Africa as a "country on the verge of meltdown" eleven weeks ago.

That this group is carping about a Chrysler ad should tell you a lot; they'll "restore liberty" to park your manufacturing in communist China.

"not-to-be-messed-with mama grizzly"? Because everyone's so scared of her retribution nowadays...remember 2010? Her fifteen minutes of fame ended a long time ago. As for Joe, don't go around measuring the drapes again for any office you want. We all know what happened last time.

Star power!? Well, I guess even a falling star is still considered a star while in route to burning out and crashing. |
