Half-term ex-governor Sarah Palin compares herself to Margaret Thatcher

[whitehall]

Digging up an old opinion by a former governor and candidate for VP six years ago is meaningless unless you factor in the left's hatred and unrelenting war on women.

. . . our own party's unwillingness to sincerely reach out to women and minorities remains baffling.

I think that changes next year in the GOP primaries. I certainly hope so.

 

[FJO]

yeah your a racist

Thank you!

and in being a racist you are against everything this country stands for.

fuck you very much

This country stands for free speech, so I can form my opinion and verbalize it. I can like or dislike anybody I want, allow others the same right to do so, and not resort to name-calling about it.

This country stands for hard work in order to achieve success, so I was unemployed for a grand total of six weeks in the early 1960's.

This country stands for helping those who need help, so I volunteered for several years for two weeks of my vacation time working with Habitat for Humanity, mostly in Florida after Hurricane Andrew.

This country stands for civility, and if anything illustrates who is against what this country stands for, it is you and the last sentence of your post, which you were stupid enough not to conclude with a period or an exclamation mark.

Get some manners, some education beyond the Grade II level and first and foremost get a brain.

You hate Palin we get it.

Hate? No, not at all. She isn't worthy of hate. She is worthy of ridicule, good for a chortle, etc. That's all. Can't understand how anyone can place any real value on her as a leader. She's a true embarrassment to the GOP.

 

[KnobbyWalsh]

yeah your a racist

And you're a hater - there, your even!

My reactionary friends: why does the black community give you single digit figures (and fingers) at election time.

We can yell at lefties all we want, but we better figure out how to do better to get that vote of women and minorities.

why?....Because the dem party has them beholden to the system. Because the dem party has a way a of making promises, but then gets away with stabbing them in the back, as so many blacks remain stuck in poverty, with no way out.....But, as we are seeing, more and more highly educated blacks are coming out of the shadows to proclaim their conservative values, and exposing the dem party for what it truly is....As this happens, more and more blacks will no doubt start to listen, and will realize that it is the conservative movement who seeks to see an end to the oppression the dem party has fostered.....Ya' see, Jake, Conservatives don't need to sell out their beliefs, or their values. All that conservatives need to do is keep exposing the left for the destructive force that they are, as so many conservative blacks and women are coming out and doing.

Only a pussy would sell out their values and beliefs.....Only a coward would bow to the force that seeks to oppress.

^^^And this is why if the GOP continues to be influenced by the extremists in the Republican party, the party will continue to go downhill.

Yes, you do hate Sarah Palin, just admit it......You lefties aren't fooling anybody.....Hate is what feeds the left. they're consumed by it.....And the only proof necessary, is the attacks on Palin and her chldren, too include her downs inflicted child.

Face it, you lefties fully prove on a regular basis, that you are some of the most hateful and intolerant people on the planet.....It is what it is.

 

[Claudette]

Gee for someone who's supposed to be so dumb Palin sure has the left in an uproar all the time. Hell. She's not running for anything and they alway bring her up so they can dump on her. Way ta go Sarah.

Gotta stand over here and LMAO on that one.

Oh and Esmy baby I do believe Palin is way smarter has more on the ball and is way more successfull than you will ever.

I don't think so. Most people don't consider me an object of ridicule. Palin ran for vice president of the United States. A position which should require exceptional intellectual capabilities. She doesn't have them by far. Quite the opposite, in fact. That she thinks she does is what is so ludicrous and funny about her. That she tries to be a player on the national and international stage is what is so ridiculous about her.

I don't know whether you folks actually believe she is worthy of your admiration or you just defend her because she is a Republican. Either way it is sad. It is so obvious she is weak and inadequate beyond the pale when it comes to having the intelligence and skills to be a serious polititian on the national stage. That you try to convince yourselves she is hated: well, I guess you need to do that so you can justify to yourselves your defense of her. Even that idiot GW is more worthy of dislike than Palin. She's just a joke, through and through. We enjoy ridiculing her, that's all. Because she is a joke. The fact you guys take her seriously makes it all the more hilarious.

Why do you lefties fight tooth and nail against programs like Vouchers and Charter Schools,....systems that would put the power in the hands of parents, particularly in the poor inner cities, to take control of their child/childrens education when the public school system is failing them?......It's because lefties so obviously fear that a voting bloc that they blatantly USE for votes, is a voting block that will be become educated.....Hence, the vile attacks on educated black consevatives who are no longer going to be intimidated, and are coming out and exposing the lefties bullshit......Hannity's townhall last night with so many black conservatives, should be a wake up call for you lefties, that your vile bullshit is coming to an end......They are not intimidated any longer, could care less about the vile and racist vitriol you ALL spew towards them, and will no doubt be as vocal as possible in order to fully expose the oppression you lefties deal to the minority communities.

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Actually, she'd decided that she wasn't going to be there for Obama's second term quite a bit before Benghazi happened, because she'd been working her ass off for the past 4 years.
But...........thanks for showing your partisan hackery.

So she can't handle a job for 4 years? Sounds like she isn't someone we want in the WH if she can't handle the one job she had. How's she going to handle running a country?

She handled the job just fine, she decided the 19 frivolous law suits brought up against her was costing her time from Governor and money from the people of Alaska..

Ah, yes....the Big DICK Nixon excuse....for HAULIN'-ASS!!!!!

LMAO!....we've got the abjectly dumbest VP in history only a heartbeat away from the Presidency as we speak..... you loons knew the man was an abject dumbass, and still put him a heartbeat away.

Seriously, you libs and your hypocrisy is beyond comical, to the point of being downright insane.

And yes, Palin has far more on the ball, and you could only wish to be as successful as she.....And that is no doubt where your hatred for the woman comes from.

 

[Book of Jeremiah]

Sarah Palin thinks she’s Margaret Thatcher

For the former Alaska governor, describing the former prime minister is like looking in a mirror



Here’s how a former half-term governor described Margaret Thatcher in National Review today. Sound familiar?

She was at heart a populist taking on the Conservative party’s old guard, who disdainfully referred to her as “That Woman.” The disdain was mutual. She referred to them as “the not so grand grandees.” As Thatcher later said, “It didn’t matter what they called me as long as I got the job done. I mean, to me they were ‘Those Grandees.’ They just don’t know what life is like. They haven’t been through it. And eventually if they didn’t help our cause, they had to go. But it didn’t bother me too much that they were patronizing like that. Frankly, the people, who are the true gentlemen, deal with others for what they are, not who their father was. Let’s face it: Maybe it took ‘That Woman’ to get things done, and the real reason why they said it was because they knew they just hadn’t got it within them to see things through.”
​

As she continues:

In taking on the “Those Grandees,” she wasn’t afraid of having strong opinions and fighting for them — something the establishment often found distasteful. British ambassador Sir Anthony Parsons recalled a conversation about this: “She said, ‘You know, Tony, I’m very proud that I don’t belong to your class.’ I said, ‘Prime Minister, what class do you think I belong to?’ She said, ‘I’m talking of course about upper-middle-class intellectuals who see everybody else’s point of view and have none of their own.’” And, of course, like all conservatives and trailblazers, she had to endure more than her share of vicious media attacks. Sir Archie Hamilton once recounted how he asked Thatcher whether she read the daily newspapers. “‘Oh no!’ she replied, ‘They make such hurtful and damaging remarks about me and my family, that if I ever read the papers every day, I could never get on with the job I am here to do.’” I know exactly what she meant. And as she said, “I always cheer up immensely if an attack is particularly wounding because I think, well, if they attack one personally, it means they have not a single political argument left.”
​

Et, as they say, cetera.

One of my favorite lines from Thatcher to her opposers was: These are the gentlemen who do not mind making the poor - poorer so long as you will make the rich less rich! Ha! Ha! She was brilliant and she could wield her words like a sword. The socialists hated her. Brilliant woman. I loved her. - Jeri

 

[Crackerjaxon]

If Sarah ever runs, I will vote for her even though she shows alarming neocon tendencies.

I'll do it because anyone who raises such ire among empty-headed liberals has to be alright.

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Palin comes closer to Thatcher than obama does that's FOR SURE

Margaret Thatcher's Forgotten Tax Increase​

"Strategic tax-raiser. It’s not the usual epithet for British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, who’s generally remembered by fans as the Iron Lady and by haters as the Milk Snatcher. But raising taxes to help close a big budget deficit is very much part of the legacy of Thatcher.

In 1981, Thatcher pushed through a tax increase at a time when the economy was shrinking and unemployment was around 9 percent. She did it because it seemed to her politically impossible to cut spending any further and yet she felt it was essential to cut the budget deficit. Shrinking the deficit, she felt, would bring down interest rates, which would enable private businesses to borrow and expand, ultimately leading to more growth."

Hate? No, not at all. She isn't worthy of hate. She is worthy of ridicule, good for a chortle, etc. That's all. Can't understand how anyone can place any real value on her as a leader. She's a true embarrassment to the GOP.

As you are worthy of ridicule, as you are an embarrassment to yourself.

Yes, you do hate Sarah Palin, just admit it......You lefties aren't fooling anybody.....Hate is what feeds the left. they're consumed by it.....And the only proof necessary, is the attacks on Palin and her chldren, too include her downs inflicted child.

Face it, you lefties fully prove on a regular basis, that you are some of the most hateful and intolerant people on the planet.....It is what it is.

I don't know whether you folks actually believe she is worthy of your admiration or you just defend her because she is a Republican. Either way it is sad. It is so obvious she is weak and inadequate beyond the pale when it comes to having the intelligence and skills to be a serious polititian on the national stage. That you try to convince yourselves she is hated: well, I guess you need to do that so you can justify to yourselves your defense of her. Even that idiot GW is more worthy of dislike than Palin. She's just a joke, through and through. We enjoy ridiculing her, that's all. Because she is a joke. The fact you guys take her seriously makes it all the more hilarious.

Face it, you righties fully prove on a regular basis that you are some of the most hateful and intolerant people on the planet. It is what it is.

You're the Joke, Esmerelda.....Your vitriolic hate towards the woman only proves it.....And, the hateful vitriol you lefty types spew towards any successful conservative woman, is only further proof that it is YOU, and those of your ilk, who are waging the real war on women.

Yes, you lefties truly are some of the most hateful and intolerant people on the planet, and you cannot deny it.
