Worden: Beware of the Media Regarding Sarah Palin
A massive number of former Republicans, now “Independents”, voted for Barack Obama last election, and they did it because they didn’t want to see another Bush (John McCain) get elected, and they certainly did not want to risk the chance McCain would drop dead and leave Sarah Palin as the president.
Like it or not, that’s a fact, Jack, and had good people voted George W. Bush out of office in his bid for a second term, there is no way Barack Obama would have ever had a chance to be president. What Bush did in two terms virtually guaranteed the election of Barack Obama, whereas a John Kerry presidency would have probably ended in a one-term existence, followed by a true, traditionally conservative Republican.
We are now seeing the media give former Vice Presidential Republican candidate Sarah Palin an extraordinary amount of media attention, and I’m seeing nothing but huge red flags. Given the fact that the mass media is overwhelmingly liberal, they all know that one of the biggest mistakes McCain made was to choose Sarah Palin as his running mate.
Like Bush and Cheney and all the rest of the Bush Administration, Sarah Palin does not represent traditional Reagan/Republican/conservative values. While campaigning for McCain, she made a number of very telling comments indicating she was a Bush Neo-Con in every aspect, including her comments in support of U.S. doctrine that clearly would continue to violate long-established constitutional safeguards — like the Patriot Act — and I clearly understood where she was coming from: Palin cannot be trusted if you expect her to support and defend what’s left of our Constitution, because like Bush, et al, she also embraces the very wrong attitude that the “situation” sometimes calls for ignoring basic constitutional rights in return for a modicum of “security”. It was that attitude that caused voters like me and a huge block of otherwise conservative and moderate voters to vote to replace Bush with Obama, because we’d already seen what a Neo-Con Republican regime could and would do, and we were not about to usher-in another one.

The mass-media liberals know very well how Palin positively affected the vote for Obama, which is why I believe they are giving her so much media coverage. They know that if they quietly promote Palin to the conservative voters and she gets enough support to run as the Republican contender for the presidency next presidential election, that she will once again polarize the conservative vote, divide it and virtually guarantee a second term for Obama.
If the Republican Party has any inkling that Sarah Palin would be a good voter alternative for Barack Obama, they haven’t learned a thing since McCain was so badly beaten, because whatever hope they had for a McCain presidency was definitely not helped by Palin, and probably caused a lot of otherwise moderate and traditional conservative voters to cast their vote for Obama.
Let me put it this way: Even I will vote for Obama for a second term if Palin is the Republican candidate, and I know that sentiment is shared by so many “Independent” voters that I will confidently predict Palin will be unable to carry her own state of Alaska. After all, Palin is a known political quitter when things don’t seem to go her way, so why should anyone bust their buns to get the equivalent another quitter like Ross Perot elected?
We need an honest-to-God Reagan conservative to run against Obama this time.
If the author’s perception of political reality were right, I would have to make myself believe that there were plenty of “traditionally conservative Republican” candidates who stayed hidden in shadows in 2004 and 2008 because of “W” and Sarah Palin.
We are no longer in familiar pendulum paradigm when letting the Libs into the White House swayed the next election in favor of the Republicans. On the contrary, we are approaching (if we haven’t passed) the point of no return.
The Malthusian population (mostly Mexican and other Latinos) is booming. They will naturally support any wealth redistributionist candidate.
Public employees labor unions are growing in numbers and political might. If the nationalized healthcare system is put in place, the labor union of healthcare workers will be the last nail into coffin of American republic.
Federal judges, with lifetime tenures, are legislating socialism from their benches.
And the list goes on and on and on.
Now, with all Palin’s imperfections, real and imaginary, show me a candidate that is both more conservative than she is and has an actual chance to win in 2012.
And last but not least, all the recent MSM Palin’s publicity are mostly vicious attacks on her. If the Left hates her so much then maybe she isn’t that bad, after all?
The above post is what I call the “Slam Damn.” No matter what BOTH Parties say or do, The Word of God exposes them for what they are. And this was written 2000 years ago so NOBODY IS WITHOUT EXCUSE! Let the “Anti-God’s” scream for all their worth…they are nothing but pure COMMUNIST DUNG – fit to be burned Forevermore!
The first thing Palin did on Fox News was to pour out her “Neocon” Crap that, “We need to support Israel at all costs.” And she also supports G.W’s statement at the U.N., “Let us never tolerate conspiracy theory’s about 911…” This was a BIG RED flag to me, also the fact that the Bible exposes “Both Parties” left-wing and Right as being EVIL!
“Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.” – Proverbs 4:27 KJV
“…According to the sentence of the law which they shall teach thee, and according to the judgment which they shall tell thee, thou shalt do: thou shalt not decline from the sentence which they shall shew thee, to the right hand, nor to the left…” – Deuteronomy 17:11 KJV
“…And thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command thee this day, to the right hand, or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them…” – Deuteronomy 28:14 KJV
Here is the Modus Operandi of BOTH Parties in office: “The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl (Republican) said to be bountiful. For the vile person will speak villany, and his heart will work iniquity, to practise hypocrisy, and to utter error against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail. The instruments also of the churl are evil: he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the poor with lying words, even when the needy speaketh right.” – Isaiah 32:5-17 KJV
Republicans: “The instruments also of the churl are evil: he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the poor with lying words, even when the needy speaketh right.”
Democrats: “For the vile person will speak villany, and his heart will work iniquity, to practise hypocrisy, and to utter error against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.”
