Sarah Palin: Holy ****

[Asher]

People weren't angry that the government was ignoring the economy in an Ahab like quest to claim a trophy the general public wasn't interested in?

Do you keep using "Ahab" in your posts because it looks like "Arab"? Honestly.

Some were. Most of them Reagan-worshiping hypocrites.

And most wanted health reform until it turned into (from many Americans pov)an unintelligible morass. But they still wanted reform, which is why a such a large % of people changed their perception of the bill once it finally passed.

No, b/c it was a FOX talking point.

What can you possibly find offensive in this? Taken from Facebook, verbatim. She says vote for the opponents. So what?

Don’t Get Demoralized! Get Organized! Take Back the 20!

With the president signing this unwanted and “transformative” government takeover of our health care system today with promises impossible to keep, let’s not get discouraged. Don’t get demoralized. Get organized!

We’re going to reclaim the power of the people from those who disregarded the will of the people. We’re going to fire them and send them back to the private sector, which has been shrinking thanks to their destructive government-growing policies. Maybe when they join the millions of unemployed, they’ll understand why Americans wanted them to focus on job creation and an invigorated private sector. Come November, we’re going to print pink slips for members of Congress as fast as they’ve been printing money.

We’re paying particular attention to those House members who voted in favor of Obamacare and represent districts that Senator John McCain and I carried during the 2008 election. Three of these House members are retiring – from Arkansas’s 2nd district, Indiana’s 8th district, and Tennessee’s 6th district – but we’ll be working to make sure that those who replace them are Commonsense Conservatives. The others are running for re-election, and we’re going to hold them accountable for this disastrous Obamacare vote. They are: Ann Kirkpatrick (AZ-1), Harry E. Mitchell (AZ-5), Gabrielle Giffords (AZ-8), John Salazar (CO-3), Betsy Markey (CO-4). Allen Boyd (FL-2), Suzanne M. Kosmas (FL-24), Baron P. Hill (IN-9), Earl Pomeroy (ND-AL), Charlie Wilson (OH-6), John Boccieri (OH-16), Kathy Dahlkemper (PA-3), Christopher Carney (PA-10), John M. Spratt, Jr. (SC-5), Tom Perriello (VA-5), Alan B. Mollohan (WV-1), and Nick J. Rahall II (WV-3).

We’ll aim for these races and many others. This is just the first salvo in a fight to elect people across the nation who will bring common sense to Washington. Please go to sarahpac.com and join me in the fight.

Stand tall, America. Real change is coming!

Are you really just whining over symbology because I don't see anything in Palin quoted rhetoric giving the impression she wants these people killed.

She didn't have to choose that symbolism. It was meant to convey a message- of fear, not violence. Fear-> more $$ and votes in November.

[Theben]

I am making perfect sense.

What would be tasteless if Palin were to put little logos of suction abortion machines instead of targets?

You do support abortion, right?

1. You never make sense.

2. Yes, it would. In fact they're both tasteless, which helps prove Guys point and damages yours, which is why you don't make sense.

3. No.

There was this book written by Hermann Melville. Oh wait, you are a compsci major. Forgive me asher.

There's this thing called 'Great American literature. You might want to ask an arts major to explain it.

But why is it tasteless? You support abortion don't you? Why would you take offense to an icon which expresses what you believe in?

I mean a Commie wouldn't be offended by the use of a hammer and sickle. Why would you take objection to suction abortion machines representing the people who voted for Obamacare?

No, b/c it was a FOX talking point.

I call bull****. I've never heard it before.

Some were. Most of them Reagan-worshiping hypocrites.

The majority of the American people were Reagan-worshiping hypocrites?

And most wanted health reform...

Everyone wanted reform, they didn't want the Senate bill.

which is why a such a large % of people changed their perception of the bill once it finally passed.

I'm not sure how much can be read into a single overnight poll in a news cycle that stressed the bill as a major win for Democrats. If a bounce holds over time, you'll have more firm grounding in claiming that.

I guess it didn't hold: http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_1...17-503544.html

I have read Moby Dick, Dick.

It's just a recurring theme with DD, I've seen it numerous times and I usually try to avoid his posts...so he must be using it a lot.

Try making sense for once, Ben.

Stop being delusional! Ben has never made sense and will never make sense.

Regardless, Palin is a moron and the symbols were in poor taste. There, you can close the thread now.

Perhaps then DD did as well? Or are you some higher being and no one else has your capacity to understand Melville?

If the OP had simply said that instead of indulging in histrionics, I wouldn't have bothered responding as it would have been a sensible point.

[Imran Siddiqui]

That's why I posted it and made sure to note that everyone can now go on with their lives

[Ben Kenobi]

I still want an answer from Theban as to why suction abortion machines are in poor taste.
