she just plain hurts my head....
Edited on Sun Apr-10-11 12:04 PM by kpete
(what does that last sentence even mean?)



"I am tempted to because I am still wondering who is going to be out there with a servant's heart, willing to serve the American people for the right reason. Not for ego, not for special interests…I am waiting to see, who else is out there willing to do this."

The former vice presidential candidate also directed fire toward President Obama's recent dealings with the crisis in Libya, suggesting the president has not made his mission there clear.

"We better be in it to win it. 'Win it' means Qadhafi goes and America gets to get on out of there," she said.

"It's not America's role not to be out and about nation building and telling other countries how to live," Palin added.

3. There are quite a few women
who have that effect on me. Interestingly, they share a common bond.

5. It's not that it's not America's role not to be out and about,
but it's not, isn't it?

7. Strange bedfellows
Politics makes for some strange bedfellows, eh?

What the OP stated was pretty much what we all said when bush was in office.

9. huh
We all said: "we better to be in it to win it which means Saddam is out of there and we shouldn't go around telling other nations how to live"? We said something like that? We did?

11. That's stupidity
Pretty much. <<< see that? That's what I actually wrote. Not your stupidity in false quotations.

But go ahead, keep playing with your bad self.

13. ok, here are the actual words from the OP

"We better be in it to win it. 'Win it' means Qadhafi goes and America gets to get on out of there," she said.

"It's not America's role not to be out and about nation building and telling other countries how to live," Palin added.


So again, the opposition here to the Iraq war echoed the above self-contradictory sentiments?

8. serpent, not servant.
And it is quite obvious what her foreign policy position is: a != a.

10. Still dangling the carrot for her drooling fans...
Expect the Quitter to be more vocal, since it's tax time. A fool and his refund are soon parted.

14. Yak-yak-yak..Ack!!
Mooselini was merely a pick for VP by an old angry POW Vietnam vet codger who likely believed that had they been elected, she would have become his female version of GHWB's VP, Quayle, and would have largely stayed out of the way while he ran the country...little did he know that she would likely have tried to find a way to get HIM out of the way, by any nefarious means available to her.

She speaks as if she "was" at one time, involved in US foreign policy, much less having any role in the day to day operation of the federal government at all. She is not speaking from having ANY prior experience in national or global affairs, the latter even directly as a US ambassador in a foreign nation, or indirectly by serving in the US military, and certainly is no world-wise guru, consultant or sage.

She is clueless, holds no elected office in local, state, or federal governmentand should just STFU, unless/until she declares her candidacy for POTUS.
