Here comes Laura, jealous of an attractive woman with smarts and power again.
Republicans are only ok to her if they are old men with money.

And Sarah Palin has accomplished more in her life than Tina Fey or Laura ever will. She has it all--looks, brains, power, & a great family life. Total package. I can see why some women would hate that.

You don't get to where she is without brains. Again, you can't seem to tell the difference between Sarah Palin and Tina Fey.

she's the mayor of a 6000 person town. Sharpe James was mayor of Newark, I'd hardly consider him an intellect. Get over it, she's dumb as a fencepost.

Last I checked, she was the governor of a state, and Alaska is run much better than Newark.

she's an idiot. It's easy to run something with the ability to tax like there's no tomorrow. How much was that bridge she wanted to build?

Balls, you remind me a lot of Karl Rove in that you truly believe that clearly the repetition of your own manufactured "facts" will eventually become truth! Life must be rosy for you, looking through those Republican-colored glasses.
You gotta love, AT LEAST, Balls unwavering adherence to the conservative mantra - anything good that happens during a Democrat Presidency is due to residual conservative legislation. Anything bad that happens under a Democrat Presidency is the Presidents fault.
What a clown.
"Reagan's administration was unable to reconcile their desire to restore the quasi-mythical laissez faire American economy with their desire to out-price the Soviets in the arms race. It is a matter of heated debate whether Reagan meant to drive the Soviet economy into the ground by increasing defense spending. Many hold that the Soviet economy was already well along the way towards its own economic demise and Reagan's aggressive defense spending, the Strategic Defense Initiative, was merely incidental. Intentional or not, the wanton defense spending of the 1980s had lasting economic effects that would leave the economy in dismal shape by the end of the decade and the beginning of the 1990s. Fortunately, the economy has since largely recovered thanks to the efforts of Congress and the Clinton administration in balancing the budget. The government of the 1990s learned an important lesson from the problems faced in the 1980s. Reagan's plan would have been far more successful had he found a single goal and stuck to it. Defense and other forms of government spending stood in the way of his economic plans."

Bottom line is that liberals everywhere are desperate to discredit Reagan for what he did--which was bring the USSR to its knees without firing a shot--all while making a great economy on his watch. Unemployment dropped from 7.5% to 5.3% when Reagan left office. He did everything he said he would do, and the country prospered.
Reagan had a mandate and actually made changes. Clinton did not. Clinton was the beneficiary of dumb luck with the rise of the internet and the dot com boom. The private sector made Clinton's economy, not any of Clinton's policies, which included the biggest tax hike in history. The economy really boomed when the GOP got in office and began to reverse that with the tax cut of 1997.
And it's funny how that clip sucks off Clinton, when the economy started to tank in his final year in office anyway. Of course, that was a natural correction, but it still happened.
Bottom line--Clinton was no Ronald Reagan. He spent 8 years in office, and all he ever did was get impeached and fight to survive it.

What a retort. Either way, both administrations are irrelevant. It's time for Obama to get in and help the terrorists at Guantanamo. They should be out of there by 5pm on January 20.

That retort should be interpreted the exact same way as me throwing my hands up in the air when trying to explain the correlation between fractions and decimal points to my 9 year old who treats the concept as if she is the first person ever being made to learn it.
I agree (maybe you could explain to your party that Clinton is no longer President, so the agenda to discredit him is a bit passe' at this point)...time to move on...let's talk about Obama

If your party would stop treating Clinton like he actually did something, while blaming Bush for things Clinton fucked up, that would be fine.

Lindsay Lohan Calls Obama First 'Colored President' in Interview
Just call her Lindsay Bunker.
Lindsay Lohan used a derogatory term for African Americans most commonly used by racist character Archie Bunker in the 1970s sitcom "All In the Family."
"It's an amazing feeling. It's our first, you know, colored president," the 22-year-old actress said in response to a question from Maria Menounos on "Access Hollywood" about her reaction to Obama's win in the 2008 presidential race.
The oft-troubled starlet muttered the offensive term in the midst of an interview about her role on "Ugly Betty," gay marriage, and cancer research.
The television interview comes on the heels of a sit-dwon with "Harper's Bazaar" magazine where Lohan denied being a lesbian, but admitted to being in love with her female partner of several months, Samantha Ronson.

"I still think she's awesome"
I'm not sure what's awesome about not being able to distinguish African countries from European countries on a map.
This is funny. Republicans always think that us Democrats make "too big of a deal" when high-profile Republicans can't spell "potato", can't identify countries on a map, can't properly pronounce common words, often fabricate non-existent words, don't know what a bar-code scanner is, reference incorrect leaders of foreign nations, etc.
I guess there's some merit to that....after all, what use are basic geography, spelling, world-government, and technology knowledge skills to a politician?

Obviously, you are also not sure what is true and what is a media lie. Don't feel bad, you are not alone.

Eh, nothing to do whatsoever with the media. Members of John McCain's campaign came out and said, in no uncertain terms, she had to be "coached" in differentiating certain African countries from certain European countries on a map.
And for the record, Dan Quayle couldn't spell "potato", George W. Bush did mispronounce words, make up words, incorrectly named world leaders, and George H. Bush did not know what a bar code scanner in a grocery store was n 1992.

Come on, Cho, I thought you were better than this. First off, she said this never happened. So I guess now you are calling her a LIAR as well, huh?
I find it amusing that since an "unknown source" said this happened, that you are taking this as gospel. This was not a public gaffe. I know you are enjoying tearing her down. I dont know, maybe someone who looked like her when she was a bit younger turned you down one day a long time ago. Or maybe you simply like your politics to be male only.
But wow, you are jumping on some stupid shit here.

Post by Chris on Nov 11, 2008 20:24:21 GMT -5
Uhhh, why is it that an unknown source from McCain's camp is not allowed to say it's true and we're not allowed to at least entertain it, but when you (and other staunch Republicans) say it's ISN'T true, we have to take THAT as gospel.
Your claim that it's not true is backed by what.....a sense that there may be sour grapes...and based on that we're just supposed to completely dismiss the alleged confessions of one of McCain's campaign members?
Not sure how that is fair.
If you recall, I was the lone liberal on this board supporting the Palin pick, back when it was done.
Look, where there's smoke there's fire. OK, maybe the map thing we exaggerated (we don't really know...I don't claim to anyway) but are you telling that ALL of these people crawling out of the woodwork with little anecdotes illustrating her meager intellect....well, there just might be something to it....it doesn't necessarily mean we all resent her because she qualifies for the MILF page.

Al Gore couldn't recognize George Washington. Joe Biden told a crippled guy to stand up.
Joe Biden thought FDR was president when the stock market crashed in 1929, and thought he went on TV to talk about it.
"You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I'm not joking."--Joe Biden

And I was ALSO the lone liberal on here criticizing the Joe Biden pick. Not a fan of Joe.
When was Al Gore unable to identify George Washington? I had never heard that one - source please.
Balls, did Lindsey Lohan just solidify your commitment to joining her fan club.

As a name is not attached, we dont even know for sure that the person, if there IS a person, is attached to the McCain camp. And I am only saying I doubt its true cause PALIN said it is not true. Again, you saying she is a liar now?
