The post was linking (or trying to) to an atricle about her attempts to take over the tea party movement to further her political ambitions. Personally I hope she never gets anywhere but never underestimate the stupidity of the American voter.....afterall, they elected Obama.

Obama is certainly a better president than Bush. And he's definitely a better option than McCain.

Obama's also very intelligent and well educated. Certainly things we've been lacking.




Now, I do agree that Obama has been largely ineffective at change, has directly defied many of his campaign promises, and seems to be spending money like it's going out of style.



I still don't think Obama is that bad of a president. I don't think the American people are stupid for having elected him: I think they are stupid for their reasons on electing him. (Cause the average voter doesn't know shit about politics or their candidates.)




And, Palin would have been much much dumber than Bush and had some shitty policies that would have damaged relations with the world big time. Basically, take the worst about Bush, put into a GILF's body, and that would be Palin.

Immediately following a keynote speech during which she mocked Obama for his use of a teleprompter:



Sarah Palin used notes written on her hand to help her through a Q&A at the Tea Party Convention in Nashville, or, as the Huffington Post puts it, "a contrived lovefest with a smitten interviewer and an adoring audience."

Closer inspection of a photo of Sarah Palin, during a speech in which she mocked President Obama for his use of a teleprompter, reveals several notes written on her left hand. The words "Energy," "Budget Cut," "Tax," and "Lift American Spirits" are clearly visible.

I agree with you about Palin...but not Obama. I think he's good at giving speeches but that's about it. I don't think he understands how a lot of things work....especially economics. I do think McCain would have been the better choice, but not by much.

Palin's awful. At least Bush had people believing him.

I'm beginning to think you are wrong on both of those accounts. However, we will see.

Palin becoming a third-party candidate would be the best thing that could happen for america. And she's so surrounded by mindless adorers I could easily see her thinking she has a chance.

Didn't we used to have a rule in this forum about no politics?

It is funny how "surrounded by mindless adorers" was the phrase used by the right to describe Obama.

But the fact that he won the election is proof that in fact, he actually had wide support.

Will you say that when Palin wins?

Yeah, if Palin becomes president then I would kind of have to admit most Americans preferred her (minus electoral vote shenanigans). It's not really debatable.

What's wrong with politics? It's easily one of the most important topics we can discuss. If you don't like political threads then just ignore them.

When it descends into talking about her having writing on her hand then it's no longer a thread about politics. Unfortunately this is the way that almost all political based threads go on the forum nowadays.

I don't think it helps that most people are either apathetic towards or ignorant of the political situation in their respective home countries.

Between that and the polarization of political opinion means that just about every political debate turns into petty personal attacks.

I also think that in the US the belief that Obama would make a massive difference in a short period of time has led to even more people being turned away from politics disappointed and disillusioned at the apparent slow pace of any change (debatable whether there is any change at all).

By that lame logic, everythign depends on everything.

Lets be rational please.

And yes, politics gets a little annoying. Its one thing to watch egotistical theirteen year olds debate comics, its just depressing watching them try to wrap their prepubescent hands and brains around government policy.

There's really no one here that 13. Only Nemesis X is close to that age. Almost everyone here is 20 or older, that posts.

And, though we don't agree on everything, most everyone knows quite a bit more than the average voter. (UK and US.)

So Palin is writing things on her hand like a 12 year old giving a presentation in social studies.

It has to be intentional self parody at this point. Really no other possibility.

Maybe she should use a teleprompter, then she wouldn't have to think at all.

She does. And she doesn't.

You're right, or being a follower of a dumb racist. "GODDAMN AMERICA"!

BTW, I've noticed that there are at least ten conservative women that you can refer to as ***** and not offend any women in the vicinity. They'll get up and arms and start talking about how repulsive the "C" word is but once you tell them that you were talking about Anne Coulter or Michelle Bachmann or Virginia Fox, they immediately say "Oh, never mind. No that's appropriate use of the word, she really is a ****."

So, you have no problem with calling women the C word as long as no one gets mad at you? And you were talking about "dumb, racist ****". What about dumb sexist ****?

dadudemon
It's a "c" word?

I thought it was "poop." embarrasment

Darth Jello
Ain't sexist in the UK and it's only sexist if you use it as a general term for women, not toward specific women. It's one of those words that I reserve for very specific individuals and don't just throw around. For example, Margaret Thatcher-horrible human being but definitely not a ****. It has to be a combination of being a female of pure evil, shrillness, stubborness, and a quality that induces mild nausea followed by a minor spasm of the rectum upon hearing the name.
For men it's a little different. The male term is **********.

Poop on both sides.
