Title: Sarah Palin vs. George W. Bush

Seems like only yesterday, but it's now been a year since Sarah Palin abruptly quit her governorship, leading many people to speculate that she was trying to get a jump on the 2012 presidential campaign. Anyone wondering if Palin will indeed run for president, and what her chances might be, should cast a glance at the new NBC/Wall Street Journal poll. Per NBC's Mark Murray and friends:

[H]ere's the political reality: Outside of Republicans, she's not popular at all. According to our NBC/WSJ poll, just 29% view her favorably, compared with 43% who view her unfavorably (not far from George W. Bush's 29%-50% score).
Stop and ponder that one for a moment. Palin's poll numbers are nearly as horrible as George W. Bush's--but only one of them launched two wars and destroyed the economy. That's remarkable. But what's more remarkable, in light of this, is that the idea of George W. Bush running for another term (were such a thing possible) would be greeted by gales of laughter from the political cognoscenti, while the prospect of a Palin presidential campaign is taken seriously.

As usual,you are confusing partisan propaganda with common sense.

Here is a tip for you,if the left claims something to be true,you can almost certainly count on it being false.

Au Contraire, Madamoiselle and Monsieur,

The Left is just now finding their place in the sun.

With America's Chernobyl raging in the GoM, the Crazies in the GObP have been defenestrated.The apologizetobp website is taking off!

And Us Dirty Fucking Hippies have been correct since Ronnie Raygun declared that trees cause pollution.

Payback's a bitch and as the US Empire Collapses in front of our eyes and it's denizens of the Imperial City and the Top 50 000 crowd the wagon trying to escape us ravening wolves,

everyone is watching as each baby gets thrown off.

8D

YEEEEESSSS. All of those Superfund sites like Yosemite, Sequoia Nat'l, the Ozarks and the Ouachitas, the Great Smoky Mtns, the Catskills, the Adirondacks. All of those watersheds under severe risk of pollution!

The Amazon, Borneo. The Boreal Forest circling the Planet just below the Arctic Circle.

YEEEESSS. We need to get busy cutting all of those Virgin Forests down. What are we waiting for?

BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA 8D

I am personally waiting for the Enviro-Whackos to commit suicide.

I know this has probably escaped your attention,but when you cut a tree down,another tree grows there unless you do something to prevent it from growing.

Yeah, you and your ilk have been trying to 'suicide' us Dirty Fucking Hippies since Nixon.8D

But since 052010, the Dragon King, America's Chernobyl, it's now muxh too late.

All the dead rotten wood, the pretenders, has been swept away. Burnt in the forges of persecution unrestrained.

All the 1/2 humans thinking out of their lizrd brained cortex are now n control. The very short term, like 'I need it now. I'm going to get it now, and I'll take out who ever's in the way.' Mentality.

Well, you and your ilk have won, SP. You're in charge as the Ecocide of the Gulf proceeds apace.

Even now as I type this, 100 000 barrels a day, already a VLCC (2 Million bbls capacity has poured into the most Strategic Area of the US.

With promises of at 45 days more. And if those lying bastards, BP, which it seems like you're trying to apologize for fail 45 days from now, then what, SP?

You gonna give 'em 45 more days?

How long are you and yours gonna side with the British over the South (where you claim you live? Just where in the South DO you live that you think, SP, you're not being affected by this. I really am curious?

Sneaky Pete, 'I've never heard the name Beauregard.'

LMFAO, James.

About what.

OK. Maybe 2 in a 100 are not.

What part of 'you can tell they're lying cause there lips are moving' do you not get.

All common currency zones define zones of predation, that is: define the regions that feed an imperial centre. The current European periphery includes such nations as Greece, Spain, Portugal, Ireland and all of Eastern Europe. It may also include Italy and the Netherlands, as both of these areas have major debt issues (housing bubbles and national debt). It would also include the UK in a sense, despite the fact that the UK is not part of the single currency. The UK is an international financial centre of considerable stature, but has an enormous debt problem and very few visible means of support going forward, once North Sea oil and gas cease to provide revenues and the City of London takes an inevitable knock-out blow."

Sub our states and the Imperial City/DC for the above.

Louisiana police don’t have any right to tell you you can’t walk onto a public beach (even to, as Esman puts it, “roll around in sticky gunky tar that I’ll never be able to get off–if I want to, that’s my right”). However, they do have the right to mislead you about who they’re really working for. In Louisiana, as in many places, it’s legal for police officers to wear their uniforms regardless of whether they’re acting in an official capacity or working for a private corporation. Which is why Andrew Wheelan, the environmentalist mentioned above, was unaware that the cop who pressured him to stop filming a BP building and later pulled him over so that a BP official could question him wasn’t on duty at the time. The Terrebonne Parish Sheriff’s Office told me that the deputy who pulled Wheelan over is just one of 40 in the parish who are working for BP on their own time. And the BP-police collusion goes beyond uniformed deputies moonlighting. In nearby Lafourche Parish, for example, the sheriff’s office is filling 57 security positions a week for BP; the shifts are on the clock, and BP reimburses the sheriff’s office for them.

McClelland’s bottom line: “…there you have it, plain as day: Down here, many cops do literally work for BP.”

Evil's just another name for "I want it all now. Give it to me or I'll take it."

A cold voice answered: "Come not between the Nazgul and his prey! Or he will not slay thee in thy turn. He will bear thee away to the houses of lamentation, beyond all darkness, where thy flesh shall be devoured, and thy shrivelled mind be left naked to the Lidless Eye."

A sword rang as it was drawn. "Do what you will; but I will hinder it, if I may."

"Hinder me? Thou fool. No living man may hinder me!" The Return of the King: "The Battle of the Pelennor Fields," p. 116

Just exactly when do you think BigOil will stop killing the Planet?

DeepS hit Horizon!!!

Every day 100 000 bbls geyser into the GoM.

Killing the way of Life of 35 Million Non Trivial Americans.

And they cancel the Fireworks Displays on the Gulf Coast.

And not a word on your TV/Newspaper about this Dragon King.

PROOF!!???

Fuck. 48 Miles SE of the MS River, the PERFECT Kill Shot on the Most Strategic Area of the United States. I couldn't come up with a better one and Mullens goes to Afghanistan before he comes to the GoM.

Everything by the US/BP has been a lie from Day 1.

The ONLY place in the World that it would 'BE CRAZY' to detonate a nuke is 48 Miles off the MS River.

But the US Navy can do WigWam 450 m SW of San Diego, no problem. The US can fire a nuke 250 m into space and detonate over Honolulu, Starfish Prime, no problem.

Nukes and Expensive Oil - The Silver Bear Cafe Jun 11, 2010 ... The Wigwam test blast was about 450 miles southwest of San Diego, Calif. (29 Deg N, 126 Deg W) in open ocean, with water depth of 16000 feet ... www.silverbearcafe.com/private/06.10/nukes.htm

Starfish Prime - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Another view of Starfish Prime through thin cloud, as seen from Honolulu ... concentric cirrus like rings moving out from the blast at tremendous initial velocity, ... Growth of the auroral region to the north was by addition of new lines ... "A Quick Look at the Technical Results of Starfish Prime." August 1962. ... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starfish_Prime -

Am I getting thru to you, here? ;}
