Palin advises Romney, 'go rogue'

[highplainsdem]

Source: CNN

(CNN) - Sarah Palin became the latest conservative to lend her two cents to the Republican ticket on Saturday, urging Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan to give the country a "come to Jesus moment."

"With so much at stake in this election, both Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan should 'go rogue' and not hold back from telling the American people the true state of our economy and national security," Palin told the conservative "Weekly Standard" in a statement published Saturday.

"America desperately needs to have a 'come to Jesus' moment in discussing our big dysfunctional, disconnected, and debt-ridden federal government," the 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee continued, after urging the ticket to "find ways to break through the filter of the liberal media to communicate their message of reform."

"Obama's motto seems to be, 'Let the good times roll in my day. The kids can deal with the catastrophic bankruptcy in theirs,' Palin continued. "That's no way for the leader of a great nation to behave, and I hope Paul Ryan and Mitt Romney continue to call him out on it. Generations of American children are counting on them."

She's projecting more than a little when she says the government is "dysfunctional" and "disconnected."

Btw, this isn't the first time Palin's advised Romney to "go rogue" -- she did this back in May, too:

1. thats what hes been doing

going by his past...

aint workin' out so good for him

[Scootaloo]

2. You know, as bad as Mitt is...

He still has the ability to laugh in Palin's face.

"Yeah? I served a full term as governor. Piss off"

[LiberalFighter]

33. Exactly! She didn't get elected President.

She didn't know the tactics used in the last campaign.

[bjobotts]

62. She saw the money and that was come to jesus moment

The nation came to a disastrous come to jesus moment under Bush and Palin thinks our current increasing prosperity for the many will destroy the Oligarchy she thinks she now belongs. "Keep your government hands off my means of making money".

She gives true meaning to the word 'Bimbo'.
Please media please stop giving credence to the rantings of slow minded hacks like Palin.

[CitizenPatriot]

35. He can't actually say that

Sadly for him, he is known for taking off mid term and never checking back in.

[Ken Burch]

39. Mitt has the ability to laugh?

I thought he hadn't been programmed with human emotions.

[livetohike]

3. Why does any media outlet give this loser a platform?

Even her own party has disowned her. No speaking spot at the convention. She's a toxic mess.

[self-realized sadge]

68. Your mama? Sorry...

[XemaSab]

4. I think this sounds like a fine idea

[Indpndnt]

51. So do I! Willard should let his real self out for all to see, all the time.

And not just on hidden videos. This would help him ever so much.

Oh, if only!

[Voice for Peace]

5. oh goody

Sarah succeeded as a rogue only because she was sexy..
(to many... I know not all DUers agree).

John McCain could go rogue because he'd been tortured.

Mitt isn't sexy or a tortured veteran.
If he and Monsieur Ryan are taking Sister Sarah's advice it can
only get creepier.

[veganlush]

12. very sexy...n/t

[Voice for Peace]

24. mitt?

[veganlush]

50. um, no. n/t

[bitchkitty]

67. I agree - she was very sexy.

Until she opened her mouth - and that ruined everything.

[Voice for Peace]

69. yup..

I've noticed that with many superficially beautiful people.
As soon as their personality comes out of their mouth the illusion of beauty vanishes.

[Live and Learn]

7. The true state of our national security?

Is she advising Romney to spill the beans on the national security secrets he recently learned? Great advice, Palin.

[randr]

8. Worked so well for Sarah

[pinto]

9. ...

I don't know what's funnier - that she's still seen to have some relevance or that she presumes to give advise on how to run a campaign.

[winstars]

10. Can someone here tell me WTF a "come to Jesus" moment is? I know explaining Palin is impossible but

I am unfamiliar with this term.

That said, whatever it/she means, I sincerely hope Mittens follows her advice to a tee because her brilliant strategy has worked out so well for her political career!!!

[Raster]

13. Seriously....Sarah Palin giving political advice, or ANY ADVICE on any subject?

There are no words.

[nolabear]

19. Common parlance in some places. It's after the call in churches to get "saved".

What it means in other circles is the ultimate in persuasion, this-is-life-or-death, we're not fooling around any more, it's now or never, what are you waiting for, etc.

Like this:

(This is my entire youth. Practically gives me a flashback.)

[Raster]

37. one can arrive at their "come to Jesus" moment at their own volition and under their own...

...steam, or dragged-- kicking and screaming.

[nolabear]

45. True dat. I actually like and respect the term. Hits just the right note.

But I favor the "own volition" side, with ample acknowledgement that the call is filled with psychological manipulation. And that never fails to fascinate me.

[C_U_L8R]

11. Apparently Mitt misheard her..

and he went ROUGE

[winstars]

14. Best post I have read today!!!! Great!!!

[Judi Lynn]

17. Going rouge! You've got it! n/t

[Faygo Kid]

22. DUzy!

If they were giving them out.

[truebluegreen]

36. how come they aren't? I miss them

[Lil Missy]

15. That would be great if Mitt could have Palin for his advisor. n/t

[Mz Pip]

16. Because that worked so well for her and John in 2008.

It would be kind of funny to see Romney unleashed. Imagine what additional turds would spew forth!

[marble falls]

18. Yes. Please do go rogue. Vice President Palin knows what she speaks of. Maybe we can put ....

some lipstick on Anne, too.

[Dyedinthewoolliberal]

20. Like she knows anything at all

about winning an election? And during the Bush admin we weren't dysfuntional and disconnected? I'd have to say she's self delusional.

[Faygo Kid]

21. Advice from the half-term, half-wit grifter

Yep, the campaign's imploding.

[progressivebydesign]

23. ProgressiveByDesign to Palin: GO AWAY!! nt

[Kablooie]

25. Romney, listen to her. Do whatever Sarah Palin says. Show that you're the real man we think you are.

[skeewee08]

26. If he does he would allow his Religion to be fair game

[kestrel91316]

28. Oh you tell 'em Sarah. Because that worked so well for YOU!

[liberal N proud]

29. Like that works

[sakabatou]

30. Taking advice from her is like drinking botulin

[lame54]

31. Urban Dictionary Definition of Going Rogue...

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=going+rogue
Going rogue
A euphemism for unprotected anal sex.
"I heard you were going rogue with that slapper you met last night?"

[DemKittyNC]

32. ah...

The Gospel from my own mothers personal hero...


By the way, I love Halloween! Yay or Fall!! I dunno, just felt that statement was more substantial than anything that's barfed up by Palin's mouth

[we can do it]

34. Please do! We need more laughs

[BlueInPhilly]

38. Yeah, Mitt, please do it!

Tying your dog to the top of your car? Not rogue enough. You need to be "roguer" than that!

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

40. "Go rogue" seems to be her answer to everything

I imagine if she's at Olive Garden and the restrooms are full, she'll tell Todd to just lift his leg and go rogue.

[oldsarge54]

41. Ms Palin

What is truth? The things you have said the last few years tell me you don't know what truth is, dead stop. Here is a truth for you, madam. Thanks to your collegues, Obama has not been allowed his own budget, just "continuing resolutions set at the current levels." Guess what, that current level was Bush's last budget.

[magical thyme]

42. well he's already gone rouge....

[allan01]

43. re:Palin advises Romney, 'go rogue'

&feature=related

[lunatica]

44. My memory may be faulty here, but didn't she lose the Presidential election?

And she sure went rogue or rouge or something.

[elbloggoZY27]

46. No to the GOP

The GOP has offered nothing positive or Progressive to our Country.

Both candidates in my opinion are not leaders that would benefit most of the United States Citizens except to set our successes back wards. Health care Reform, Social Security & Medicare do not need to be destroyed and scarring our Senior Citizens and disrespect to our War Veterans does nothing to put our faith in the GOP ideas.

[Bluenorthwest]

47. Who?

nt

[muriel_volestrangler]

48. Coming next week: Palin advises Romney to quit halfway through, cash in at Fox

That's what one does after 'going rogue', isn't it?

[rrp3]

49. go away

Why won't this rash go away.

[AnneD]

52. Maybe...

A good dose of penicillin use to clear that up. But what can I say, it is a case of drug resistance.

[Puzzler]

53. Most of the paid GOP sockpuppets are absent...

... in the comments section (actually I couldn't see any). Have they given up?

[davidpdx]

54. I say go for it

Maybe Mitt and Paul should campaign in thongs with some tanning oil rubbed on. While they are at it they could get some tattoos.

[Quantess]

55. For a man, "go rogue" means

shave your balls and stop wearing underpants.

Or am I mistaken?

[wordpix]

56. "Let the good times roll"? Where was she when billions were lost in Iraq & KBR was stealing US blind

? Oh yes, she was supporting BushCheney & their war machine in the unnecessary trumped up Iraq War

[spiderpig]

57. While I don't for one nanosecond take anything she says seriously

I have to admit that I look to see what kind of bellylaughs she's provoking.

What an idiot.

And a delusional one at that.

Ugh. And Alaska's a beautiful state I've always wanted to visit, despite the Palin stank.

[silvershadow]

58. How exactly does on go rogue against one's own campaign, pray tell?

And by "ones own" campaign, I really mean oneself, as it appears the campaign listens to the candidate instead of the other way around.

[Dont_Bogart_the_Pretzel]

59. Like 'go rogue' really worked...

Crazy nut!

[Cass]

60. Right, because going rogue worked so well for her.

She sure has a lot to say but won't step up to the plate herself. All she does is issue nasty screeds periodocally from her proected perch on Faux News.

I'll say one thing for batshit Bachmann - at least she had the guts to throw her hat in the ring and participate in the GOP primary debates. Personally I was looking forward to republicans ripping Palin to shreds during those debates, it would have made the debates "must-see TV" for me.

[joanbarnes]

61. She's one to give advice! (I hope he takes it.)

[daleo]

63. Perhaps if he posed with a rifle in a bikini

Not that it worked for her. It would be a cool photoshop project, though.

[truthisfreedom]

65. That actually was a photoshop project.

Just so you know.

[daleo]

66. One that would either make you laugh or make you poke your eyes out

I don't dare risk looking it up.

[truthisfreedom]

64. I'm all for it. Do exactly as Sarah says, rMoney. Exactly.

Follow in her footsteps.

[agtcovert]

70. It worked so well last time. n/t

[Third Doctor]

71. Yeah .Mitt listen to ,Sarah and go rogue!!

This will make things so much easier! Someone that is seen as a drag on the last republican ticket is trying to give a advice. This is better than comedy central!
