Nothing more nor less.



That is why I was so disappointed. I took her dead serious, and believed her to be really truly different from the crowd. I had great hopes.

I guess this book might appeal to women a lot more than men, and if she is trying to get more women voters to consider her seriously then maybe there is some wisdom in that. That is the best spin I can put on it from my perspective.

Quite honestly I am looking to meet the next Sam Adams and champion his cause.

The anti-federalists were right, as far as I can tell. But think of it, even the Federalist Papers are radical these days as compared to what we have in operation! Federalist 45 is MUCH too extreme to be discussed seriously in public debate, unless perhaps you are a Ron Paul supporter, and what are they called around here??? Paultards?

He was personable, likable by all, and a breath of fresh air after his predecessors, but far from an ideal conservative leader.


How old are you? Serously, your comments are pure trash! Ronald Reagan restored our belief in America my friend! Ronald Reagan, created 21 million new jobs in America, my friend! Ronald Reagan inherited double didget inflation that I had to live thru as a young person trying to raise a wife and family. Try buying a house with nothing down, in a double didget infationary time!!!! Reagan pretty much took care of ole Omar Kadofy, or did you convieniently forget that? Seems he was missing a few close ones after Reagan bombed his personal "house" at night. Reagan did everything that gave our Military the current "high Tech" capability we currently have, that was due to Reagan, My Friend. Reagan challenged the Soviet Union, and now we deal with Russia.....remember the wall? God, your comments are so pathetic! Go take a course in History, or better yet, if you are my age, try growing up for a change, and stop bull [bleep] people.

I turn 56 this week. How about you? Young enough (or something) to idolize people, I guess. I gave that up. They all disappoint someplace. I just pointed out a few.

BTW: much of what you say is true. So is what I said.


We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

I don't think bombing Khadifi's compound was a high point for America, and Reagan legitimized peacetime military deficit spending. Now we are apparantly stuck with it, forever. Can't like that.

Reagan pushed people's "John Wayne" buttons... and the people, they liked it... just sayin'...

If Sarah will write a sequel and expand greatly on her last chapter; "The Way Forward" and put some meat on the bones, and some depth to the debate then we will have a real winner. I think it is possible. I have great hopes actually. Time will tell.

The war of ideas must be won.

There are a lot of people in Alaska who underestimated her, too, many of them Rebublicans and she plowed them under.

I think the best outcome is not for her to go third party, but to re-claim the Rebublican party, by marginalizing all the moderate Bush/McCain Republican milk toasts. She can do it in spite of the libs and MSM.

Rather, alot of people in Alaska look at what she achieved, or rather didn't achieve, and hence are not impressed.

If she can push through taxation that put the industry that benefits the state 10:1 over all others combined and basically shutdown investment and cause the loss of 1000's of the highest paying jobs, and also pave the path for income taxes in the next several years, just imagine what she can do for the country! shocked

She makes a great cheerleader, but she is no quarterback.

Isn't it strange how many call her conservative yet no real conservative would have done what you just described.

A real conservative doesn't shut down the major industry of a state with high taxes.

Palin is a moderate Fascist just like most of the Republican Party.

That is quite possible as the choice is always between a moderate Fascist and a liberal Fascist.
