Palin: If Tea Partiers Were Terrorists, Obama Would Pal Around With Us

Fmr. Gov. Sarah Palin responds to a report that Vice President Joe Biden said Republicans were "terrorists" during a closed-door meeting with Congressional Democrats about the debt compromise.

Palin says "enough is enough" and she's "not going to sit here and take it anymore" when it comes to the left accusing the Tea Party of racism.

"It's all talk and no real action. Otherwise he'd be on Biden and tell Biden to tone it down a little bit. Yeah, right, independent patriotic Americans who desire fiscal sanity in our beloved nation being called terrorists. Heck, Sean, if we were real domestic terrorists, shoot, President Obama would be wanting to pal around with us, wouldn’t he? I mean he didn’t have a problem paling around with Bill Ayers back in the day when he kicked off his political career in Bill Ayers' apartment," Palin said on FOX News' "Hannity."

oooo...Obama was near him once so they're "pals"...oooo...

Huh?? "near him"?? ROFL??

You probably think a BJ is "incidental contact."

Bush pardoned a guy who actually blew up an airliner. Get back to me when you have a REAL issue...no one cares about Ayers...

Oh, I see. If Bush can be an asshole, so can 0bama - except 0bama can be an asshole to the nth degree with impunity. GOTCHA.

#19. To: Get Outta Dodge! (#11)

As much as those on the Left would like Palin to be the nominee, I think they're going to be disappointed.

She's waited too long, and the big money donations have gone to others. Besides, I think she sees her role as "tea party" spokesperson - and hopes to have a tea-party approved candidate emerge. She will try to influence the process to that end.

I agree with you completely.

Again, we're in agreement; The Fix is in.

Rubio will be the VP candidate in either instance.

Hmmm...I think it'll be a female RINO.

But seriously - If Palin is "insane," what does that make Biden? Shiela Jackson Lee? Pelosi?

Holy sh*t - 90% of the Dem Party and their bleating flock is...insane.

And btw as an aside - take down that inane photo-tagline of 0bama. It's making you look like a damn teeny-bopper and sychophant. And of course you're NOT an 0bama-sycophant, are you??

You'll get no argument from me. Lack of experience is spiking this presidency. It also highlights the double standard that exists between GOP and Democrat POTUSes...Bush's lack of experience was never seen as a liability - still isn't - and yet he made blunder after blunder because of it...

Far more?

Barely even "more"...Texas has one of the least powerful governors in the nation. His job is to simply channel the patronage to the legislature...

As usual, this nation elected the wrong person 3 elections in a row. The difference is that in 2008 the "right" person wasn't even nominated...

Yep. Based on executive experience (of which Obama had zero), even Sarah Palin was more qualified than Obama. [waiting for war's head to explode]
Bush's lack of experience was never seen as a liability - still isn't - and yet he made blunder after blunder because of it...
You and I are in agreement that Bush was a shitty president (though I doubt we agree on the reasons why.)

But in a match of prior experience, Obama loses big. Bush WAS governor of Texas, after all. Obama was . . . . ?

It's early, but Rubio's been a political genius thus far. He's managed to keep some tea-party credentials while at the same time not pissing off the establishment.

If the nominee is Romney, Rubio would be a bone thrown to the tea-party.

If the nominee is Perry, Rubio would be the bone thrown to hispanics.

Now that that's out of the way, I will explain:

Bush to me was a shitty president because he was a faux conservative that governed like a liberal - fighting wars we have no business in, increasing the power of the state, and creating new boondoggle programs like the geezer drug program.

I would venture to say that Bush to you was a shitty president because he had the nerve to govern like a liberal but had the dreaded "R" after his name.

I would venture to say that Bush to you was a shitty president because he had the nerve to govern like a liberal but had the dreaded "R" after his name.

He was a shitty POTUS because he was in over his head for the simple reason that he would never, ever understand the cause/effect relationship of his policies. I saw the first tax cuts as having the immediate effect of starving the government of revenues at a time when it was ready to pay down debt. I saw the second round of tax cuts as being of similar nature while we were fighting wars that were requiring EXPONENTIALLY more money than was averred, in public, would be needed.

I'm all for tax cuts - at the correct time. The economy, at the time, was not starved for capital, it was simply undergoing an asset reallocation correction - out of Y2K and internet start-ups back into housing and manufacturing modernization which were the underreported "booms" of the latge 90's.. There was absolutely no need for those tax cuts. Everyone who knows anything KNEW that his %5trl in cumulative surpluses by 2011 and a paydown of $1trl in debt were moronic projections. CBO certainly laughed at it.

That's but one example.
