Obama's betrayal of liberalism

This whole business of saying Palin is an idiot just strikes me as an empty insult
which entertains the left. To say it without cogent argument still looks bigoted.

Oh ********.
I`ve heard the woman speak, often.
She`s a simpleton and a Messiah for idiots.

Edit:
"As Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where– where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border." --Sarah Palin, explaining why Alaska's proximity to Russia gives her foreign policy experience, interview with CBS's Katie Couric, Sept. 24, 2008

"Well, let's see. There's ― of course in the great history of America there have been rulings that there's never going to be absolute consensus by every American, and there are those issues, again, like Roe v. Wade, where I believe are best held on a state level and addressed there. So, you know, going through the history of America, there would be others but ―" --Sarah Palin, unable to name a Supreme Court decision she disagreed with other than Roe vs. Wade, interview with Katie Couric, CBS News, Oct. 1, 2008

"'Refudiate,' 'misunderestimate,' 'wee-wee'd up.' English is a living language. Shakespeare liked to coin new words too. Got to celebrate it!'" --a Tweet sent by Sarah Palin in response to being ridicule for inventing the word "refudiate," proudly mistaking her illiteracy for literary genius, July 18, 2010

"[T]hey're in charge of the U.S. Senate so if they want to they can really get in there with the senators and make a lot of good policy changes that will make life better for Brandon and his family and his classroom." --Sarah Palin, getting the vice president's constitutional role wrong after being asked by a third grader what the vice president does, interview with NBC affiliate KUSA in Colorado, Oct. 21, 2008

"We used to hustle over the border for health care we received in Canada. And I think now, isn't that ironic?" --Sarah Palin, admitting that her family used to get treatment in Canada's single-payer health care system, despite having demonized such government-run programs as socialized medicine that will lead to death-panel-like rationing, March 6, 2010

"I think on a national level your Department of Law there in the White House would look at some of the things that we've been charged with and automatically throw them out." --Sarah Palin, referring to a department that does not exist while attempting to explain why as president she wouldn't be subjected to the same ethics investigations that compelled her to resign as governor of Alaska, ABC News interview, July 7, 2009

"Ohh, good, thank you, yes." --Sarah Palin, after a notorious Canadian prank caller complimented her on the documentary about her life, Hustler's "Nailin Paylin," Nov. 1, 2008 (Read more about the prank call, watch the video and see the transcript)

The woman IS an idiot.

You're more presidential than McCain, Obama & Biden too!

I'm sure it does strike you that way, but that's because of your deep personal bias (and bigotry, to use your terms). The cogent argument is to actually pay attention (without viewing things through your crazy bias). The fact that you haven't already done that probably means it's impossible to point out the reality of the situation to you.

I've seen him without a teleprompter...pretty tongue tied.

Yeah, and we all know that's not your bias and bigotry talking, since some of us have also seen him without a teleprompter and he wasn't tongue-tied.

It's primarily his grasp of reality which is the symptom of dimnitude.

I'm not sure you're the best person to be criticizing someone else's grasp on reality (or lack thereof).

I hope you didn't work all nite on those feckless retorts.
Actually, mball, I'm the one lacking bias....I detest both Palin & Obama.
You're the one who is the apologist....in this case, for the latter.
What do Smurph's know about the world anyway? They don't hold jobs.
I'm at least an elementary school janitor.

Don't worry, your hope has been answered. Come on, I wouldn't waste more than a few minutes replying to you, considering how useless it is to try to get through that thick skull.

Actually, mball, I'm the one lacking bias....I detest both Palin & Obama.

Ah, so now the fact that you detest Palin and Obama means you're lacking bias. Riiiiight. That makes sense.

You're the one who is the apologist....in this case, for the latter.

Nope, just a realist. The fact that I can criticize Obama for his failures and praise him for his accomplishments is the indication that I'm lacking bias, or that I can at least acknowledge it and put it aside for decision-making purposes.

What do Smurph's know about the world anyway? They don't hold jobs.

Smurfs don't need to hold jobs. They live in a socialist commune where life is perfect, except for the evil capitalist Gargamel who wants to destroy their perfect life due to his bad attitude.

I would really like to put this to the test Matt.

Can you name one thing that Sarah Palin has done right?

Yet another argument devoid of anything other than insult.
Do you focus upon Palin in order to avoid the embarrassment of Obama?
Tis truly a sin that he makes her look savvy.

No one, least of all me, is trying to argue with you, Revoltingest. The fact you think Palin is something more than an idiot says so much about your intelligence that it would be futile to argue with you. People like you do not respond to reason. You only respond to fear.

Hmmm....once again, instead of a reasoned response, I get excuses for the lack thereof.
I've been nice enuf to not share my opinion of your character & mental prowess...you ought to reciprocate.

It's been fun, but I'm off to do something useful for a while. Later....

It's very simple. It's like trying to explain evolution to an evolution-denier. It's obviously futile. The evidence has been put in front of your face plenty of times over the past 2 years. If you have chosen not to look at it, chances are pretty slim you're going to look at it now.

Is it similar to talking with a faithful Obama acolyte?
Why the hostility over a mere difference of opinion?
I don't get angry just cuz you're wrong.

Hmmm....I guess if I voted for this guy, I'd be angry too.

It depends. Is that faithful acolyte able to be objective about Obama?

What hostility? It's merely amazing to me that in your infinite bias, you can actually be of the opinion that Palin is no worse than Obama.

I don't get angry just cuz you're wrong.

That's because I'm never wrong. :yes:

Examples of presidential palaver:
[youtube]ThEAO0lt4Dw[/youtube]
YouTube - Barack Obama "Uh" Count
[youtube]MyW9e5QdWxk[/youtube]
YouTube - The Obama Stutter
Hmmm....I guess if I voted for this guy, I'd be angry too.

Ah, so you, like Rick, are going to say that Obama's use of "uh" and stutter are equal to be a moron like Palin? Come on. You're not really that far gone, are you?

Hey, Rick, are you going to respond to my posts, or just ignore them? I mean, you weren't actually serious, were you?
