It's a warm humid night here in So Cal, but right now there is a delightful fresh breeze. If it's okay to name hurricanes, then I name this breeze....PALIN!

Hell Barrys already written 2 memoirs is that a omen?

Ahhhh.

Game. On!

SARAH PALIN IS A YOUNGER, AMERICAN MARGARET THATCHER!

THank you, God!

Laydeez and Gontelmenz,

I predict a landslide of EPIC PROPORTIONS for McCain - Palin in November, and am looking forward to 8 years of McCain FOLLOWED BY EIGHT YEARS OF PALIN!

BBBBOOOOOOOYYYAAAAHHH!

or you could write 2 books first, good night yall, i feel great!

estrich, ewww. sure she thinks the experience question is not what the GOP wants out front. I believe her

I love the smell of fresh hamsters in the morning.

Smells like ... Victory!

obama's managed to write two books about himself, but not one law.

Go Sarah, go!

It's very slow on my end, so I don't think I'll be here long. I will say I'm glad the conventioneering is almost over. I'm tired of it all and wish it were November already.

On a non-Palin-centric note, I finally had an epiphany about why I don't particularly care for Obama so much as a person. Did you ever run into one of those overbearing salesmen at the used car lot or one of those cell-phone kiosks in the mall? The one who decides to pretend he's your long-lost buddy while selling you some marginal, overpriced goods?

I think that fits Obama to a T.

anyone got an eye on those krazy kos kidz?

After tonight, it seems the Democratic ticket is suddenly palin' in comparison.

Susan Estrich is now coming out full bore against Palin - she's a democratic hack and probably got the word slipped to her that her condemnation of the attacks on Palin were not acceptable.

But surprisingly, Greta stood up to her, and I'm wondering if Greta hasn't been won over!?

Well, the line-up tonight was amazing. Every major speaker - Mitt, Huck, Rudy - hit home runs. Kudos to Gov Lindle from Hawaii, who gave a decent speech and a symbolic on as well. The Governor of the 50th state (a woman) introducing the Governor of the 49th state (Gov Palin).

But the headliner - although at first she was a bit hesitant, she built up her moxie. And she delivered a solid hit in a game that is 4-4, in the 9th inning, 2 outs, 3/2 count.

She's a force to reckon with, I'd say. And the wackjobs will be at it in force tomorrow!

Did 0bama plagiarize this speech?

I wasn't sure how I would feel about her, this speech really did it for me. She came across as a real person, someone I could talk too. A little feisty and I liked that. I'm a conservative, not a Republican. She gets me on this ticket, because I like her and the way she presents herself. She did not say anything tonight that I disagreed with.

Where can I see those how many logged in or other stats?

I just threw up a little. C-Span just took calls. Half were Obamatrons, saying a variation of Hope and/or Change, and most of the rest were Paulbots spinning the most insane rumors and conspiracy theories.

It's quite interesting that we have the two aging decade-long senators, and the two out of nowhere bright stars. But on the GOP side the older more experienced man is at the head of the ticket, as it should be.

I hope McCain gets a big bounce from the convention. Of course the polls are flawed and cam be interpreted in different ways, there's only one poll that counts, etc. But I would really want the Dems to be shitting bricks at this point. OTOH, if they were to get overconfident that could work in our favor as well.

It's interesting that the prime identity candidate for "ArcXIX" appears to share the same residence with a labor activist who has endorsed B Hussein O.

Take a peek here, and specifically note references to the Franklin County Clerk of Courts. A quick search of a Charles and a William, of the same family name, yield compelling results.

Further, take a peek at these:

www.neoalf.org/files/januaryaflcioelectronicnewsle tter.pdf

my.barackobama.com/page/community/post/gwtardy/gG5 GkL

"ArcXIX" has been purging references to himself all over the net, changing his name, sometimes more than once, so that Google hits don't yield the expected result unless one selects the cached entry.

Interestingly, a fellow with the same name, living in the same city (Columbus, Ohio) has had his name purged from a site for a lupus charity.

I tuned in at 9 for Rudy and Sarah.

- Rudy was fun, but sometimes I can see what the lefties are talking about when they say he's creepy. :) He could have put the 9/11 stuff somewhere else besides the end of his speech, too... It validates the caricature of him from Buchanan's magazine. I'm glad he didn't pull any punches, though - what a great set-up for Gov. Palin, and I enjoyed somebody FINALLY calling Bullshit on Obie.

- Sarah was great. I was worried she might come across as the aw-shucks mom, or sound whiny, or appear diminutive or "out of touch", and she got up there and hit it right out of the park. She is such a good speaker too. I heard her slip up a little bit ONCE in the whole time she was up there.

So many zingers tonight. Republicans really know how to kick somebody HARD when they want to, and they know that the soft underbelly of any leftist is NARCISSISM, and the knife you need to use is MOCKERY.

They just won't stop: Palin denies affair rumors

Quote:
John McCain’s campaign threatened legal action against the National Enquirer today for running a story about McCain’s running mate, Sarah Palin, allegedly having an affair with her husband’s business partner.

“The smearing of the Palin family must end. The allegations contained on the cover of the National Enquirer insinuating that Gov. Palin had an extramarital affair are categorically false. It is a vicious lie,” said McCain senior adviser Steve Schmidt.
http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2008/09...y4413030.sh tml

All this based on people they 'paid' to say what they wanted to hear.

And why is CBS is reporting on a National Enquirer story?!

Where were they on the John Edward''s affair story months ago? That was broken in the National Enquirer and they would not touch it for months even when it was ACTUAL proof.

And now they are touting a national enquirer story that is based on zero actual evidence.

Regardless, get ready for the innuendo and rumors to fly on MSNBC/CNN/etc, all of them pretending to be innocent and just 'mentioning something they heard'.

She could kick Reid's pompous ass. She would have plenty left over to put a pump in Olberman's rear. She could then invite Obambi to a friendly game of one-on-one. Of course it wouldn't be so friendly.

Obambi reminds me of Anthony Edwards in the movie "Soul Man". He wears black face paint and the intramural team fights all over themselves to pick him for their basketball team.

Video: Megyn Kelly destroys Us Weekly bottom-feeder over Palin story

I get the feeling the dems don't understand how much most of America loves their children. In my early 20s I had a discussion about abortion (no complications) with my now ex wife. The marriage was a mistake but the children were definitely not. I can't imagine how anyone that has had a child wouldn't make the same decision Sarah Palin made about her son Trig. Downs syndrome is a disease that makes it hard to say who are the lucky ones. They keep that thing that the rest of us lose a childlike view of the world. Yes a challenge for the parents in that they need extra time and support but they bring IMHO much more to this world than they take.

re: #63 jcm Well I have to agree with you my friend (assuming this post makes through the mob and gets posted!).

Tonight was a sea change in the American political scene.

Yep. Absolutely. I mean, she IS a politician so I'm sure that the Left (don't use the term Democrat anymore cause all the ones I used to respect have disappeared and the party of just tax and spend without regard for the good or bad of the Nation as a whole - i.e., the Nanny State Leftists) will ultimately turn up some dirt on her, but it will be trivial because I sincerely believe that she is decent and honest - not to mention capable.

Oh man, I just watched Palin's speech. That was the most amazing speech I've ever seen. She really took it to him. Unbelievable. The media must be writhing right now! I'm still in shock!

K.O. has Obama's b@llsack on his chin when Alan Colmes is on screen.

(Am I too plastered to post?)

Amazing, Gov. Palin delivers one of the best political speeches in decades and the pundits reaction is "Well obviously she didn't write that herself." I must have missed those same comments when Lord Obama delivered his sermon from the Mount in Denver. I'm sure none of those epic words came from a speech writer!
You've gotta believe that the acolytes in the Obama camp are dreading Biden vs Palin in the debates. And I'm sure the Kos-sacks will have their panties in a bunch over all the jabs at the messiah!

I hope it's not a sock. The comment about the special needs children went so far beyond the pale that I wouldn't be able to maintain my respect for whoever used it.

I was telling the roommate yesterday that if some motherf-cker threw a corrosive on me while I was trying to go to my job, he'd end up with new holes in his sorry hide courtesy of Mr. 9mm. This is Texas, of course, but maybe this anarchist bullshit will stop if somebody in Minneapolis gets a little "Texas" on people committing assault with intent to maim while interfering with the democratic process.

re: #130 surrounded by moonbats

State Dept of Corrections isn't doing a great job of following through on this part of their jobs:(.

Lots of lives lost in the last couple of years because because of lack of supervision.

Our Governor (by stolen election) after Deputy Steve Cox was killed, publicly ordered a review of DOC supervision and re-incarceration of high risk felons. Later, quietly she told DOC "never mind" the State didn't have prison space.

I think McCain has done what he needed to do to get Americans onboard for a right direction for America. The question remains, do at least 50% of Americans still wish to live free? If not, then probably about 50% of Americans may not be around next election.

re: #135 Metal Man

I get the feeling the dems don't understand how much most of America loves their children. In my early 20s I had a discussion about abortion (no complications) with my now ex wife. The marriage was a mistake but the children were definitely not. I can't imagine how anyone that has had a child wouldn't make the same decision Sarah Palin made about her son Trig. Downs syndrome is a disease that makes it hard to say who are the lucky ones. They keep that thing that the rest of us lose a childlike view of the world. Yes a challenge for the parents in that they need extra time and support but they bring IMHO much more to this world than they take.

Not that I really know the challenges my kids are healthy but I can't imagine the world without them.

I personally know a number of Jews for Jesus - there is absolutely no jew hating from these people, it is quite the opposite. It is just another lie of the left.

Reportedly, this particular JFJ guy was invited on a one-time basis to speak at the church that Palin attends. Reportedly, he claimed that terrorist attacks in Israel were God's payback for their rejecting Jesus.

The left is trying to spin this into "Palin's pastor says Jews deserve terrorist attacks." An idiotic post to that effect is getting thousands of diggs over at digg.com.

I think Sarah needs to issue a statement on this issue at some point pretty soon, attempts to make more of it than that are incredibly ridiculous.

That was great. I'd been hearing about that. He had no answer for any of her questions.

Since they ignored the allegations the Enquirer made against Edwards -- even though there was plenty of evidence -- I'm interested to know why they suddenly think it's okay to report the Enquirer's stories.

re: #127 BigJohn
With no respect to Sen. Reid intended at all, he's an asshole.
A bipartisan committee, composed of non-politicians but geologists, nuclear engineers and envriomental engineers met two years ago and unanimously recommended that spent nuclear rods and other nuclear waste products could be safely contained in a tehcie jargon-loaded type of container and that it should be buried and suitably covererd so as to not leak out. They also unamimously recommended a tiny place in the vast wasteland that is most of Nevada as THE best place to bury it.
Harry Reid, single handedly defeated that project, leaving us, for the time being, with no sound method or place to get rid of nuclear generator waste by-products.
He then saw to it that said committee never got another dime to find another location.
Reid is all about Reid and can't see the Greater American Good at all.
Moreover, he is typical of the Lefties in this respect; they do not see and dont' even look for solutions to America's problems, just their own little feifdoms.
McCain and Palin really do threaten them horribly.

I think it has been dazed by the whole slide into the wilderness and Bush is not a PR ringmaster, so there has been nothing to rally around. Confidence is coming back and people are smiling more and sitting up straighter. McCain has found a way to rally the troops without turning on Bush. And it was, ironically, the media that helped him do it.

Rachel Madow’s point was that her being there was the same has Obama being in Wright’s church for 20 years and declaring the not so good reverend to be his spiritual advisor. That and she throw out a lot of out of context remarks about terror attacks being God’s judgment for rejecting Jesus. If she had read the bible she would know that it was full of Israel being attacked has Judgment for rejecting God in one form or another. So if you’re a Christian it is not that outrageous of a statement, and if you’re not, but you know your bible, then you should be able to understand his point even if you don’t agree with it. That said I don’t know what Jews for Jesus is about or how they go about doing what they do. I do know from what little I have heard that it is in no way the monster that Rachel Madow made it out to be.

The post-speech thread on Daily Kos is a blast. They are saying that Palin's speech was a "Klan rally", "hate speech" and that Palin needs to insult other people to make herself feel better. This of course comes from the blog that accused her of faking a pregnancy.

And the other interesting thing is they are all flipping out about giving more money to Obama. I think they sense that this race just changed.

re: #218 Typicalwhitey

Sarah Palin took to the floor of the Republican Convention Wednesday night and delivered a slapshot right to the gut of the Obama campaign

This speech was part mom, part Pit Bull and part policy wonk. I mean she went after Obama as hard as anyone. She basically ripped him to shreds but she didn’t do it in a way that looked mean or vindictive. That’s hard to do but she pulled it off. Instead, she did it in a way that playfully poked fun at his expense. There was no reason for her to deliver her lines in a mean, terse way. Rather, she let the crowd take care of the wild and raucous reaction. They were eating it up.

Do you think Michelle is still throwing things or have they sedated her yet?

I've always believed that when America is in a time of crisis, providence will send us a leader who is exactly the right man for the job.

Tonight it was demonstrated that sometimes that man is a woman.

re: #223 realwest

Well good then.

I thought Palin did very well, as did my Governor Lingle, who introduced her . Wonderful woman. And Jewish for those who care. Palin and Lingle have developed a bit of a friendship over the years. Just like Obama and all the Governors he pals with/not

re: #224 maddogg

Palin made a good speech. But I am very sure she can do much better.

The pressure on her was unreal. She did a great job considering those circumstances.

Sometimes it's not so fun. I just did a search to see who linked to my reports, and stumbled on a stalker site:

Weird. Very weird.

The 5 minute standing ovation did much to relieve her stress I think. She is a good speaker, and will only get better.

Anyone care to venture a guess as to who will be the first tommorrow to call her a racist.

You don't have to say, because I think they're barking up the wrong tree anyway.

re: #203 jcm Huh? Biden's good at realestate? I could eat his lunch at realestate deals of any type he'd like to make - just need someone to engage (i.e., hire me) to oppose him.

I'm SO FED UP with the Left in this Country. They honestly believe that Amercia is a BAD place. Sure wish they could pick a better place and all relocate there.
Seriously - when is the last time a Lefty (or if you prefer, Democrat, come up with an idea that would be GREAT or even GOOD for this Nation?

I really believe that McCain and Palin will see this country retains it's honor and it's integrity and remains THE force for the World to deal with.

I find it strange to look at that shot of the crowd and know that you are in there, SOMEWHERE... Maybe? Or maybe not! In this day and age where nothing is private, I salute you for hiding in plain sight so perfectly.

I still think Ward Churchill is your secret identity, or that you might be a guy or girl in a Trippy Bear costume handing out refreshments, and that's why everybody in your photos is happy to see you.

re: #200 zombie

So -- that's what a scuzzball looks like.

A metrosexual himbo scuzzball.

I get the feeling that the Palins 'scandal' well the MSM and eft blogosphere is starting to run dry. They got so panicky that some of the stuff they were supposed to hold off on until October was announced less than a week after her nomination.

Now they're just flingin whatever shit they can like enrgaed howler moneys and seeing what sticks.

re: #222 Cognito

Giuliani's destined for bigger things than AG, I think. I think he may still have a shot at the big chair, down the line, and depending how the next four to eight years go.

I'm a big Rudy fan, but his lackluster showing in his presidential run makes me think he does not have the fire for a national campaign. If he still wants to serve the poeple. AG in the McCain administration would be perfect.

re: #227 zombie

LOL, I just can't see you being associated with AP.

re: #227 zombie

Very interesting....actually extremely interesting.

Having stalkers however means you've sort of made your mark. If you were a nobody...nobody would care.

That being said, I especially like this quote from the person.

looks kind the same, people use pix that look like selfs.

I couldn't agree more...what proofs (sic) do you need other than my avatar?

I am at the convention. Several reports that you may be interested in.

First off, it must be obvious from the tv that the delegates were jazzed tonight. I hope the country is too.

Second, I had dinner with the Ambassador from India to the US. Indians are very pro-McCain. There is s group that has just formed three weeks ago to back McCain. They are very afraid of terrorists, and very afraid of what may happen if they get total control of Pakistan. Obama is friendlier to terrorists. These are lifelong Dems that are switching.

Third, my seat is behind the guys that are running the convention. Rudy went terribly over his time limit, giving the operations guys fits! He ad libbed a lot of that speech, not using the teleprompter. I told one operation guy that Rudy is ticking you off, but they are clapping at home!

Fourth, Code Pink almost made it onstage when Sarah Palin was speaking. They made their way down the steps and were around 10 feet from the stage before the secret service grabbed them. The Code Pinkers almost ran over a couple holding an infant. It was a scary moment in an awesome night. The only way that I can see they got in was to have credentials, and change in a bathroom.

I am for peaceful protest and civil disobedience. What Code Pink did this evening was to endanger the life of a young baby, and was anything but civil.
Security is very tight here, so they must have been pretty sneaky.

Tomorrow Johnny Mac. Hopefully he brings down the house.

Local media lead on Palin....

Sarah Palin who two years ago was a small town mayor.......

re: #191 Typicalwhitey

Except for one thing.

Sometime during her speech the teleprompter messed up.

She did some of it all by her lonesome!

How do you know that?

Saw this elsewhere and thought it would be good to sharer:

One of them is little more than an elegant, attractive, dare I say sexy piece of eye candy.

The other one kills her own food.

Wow! Now I understand. Sarah Palin is a game changer, and she has turned this race on its head. I wanted Romney, but he never would have energized the ticket as she has done.

She is inexperienced, and not ready for the presidency. But her inexperience it is becoming clear, only highlights Obama's inexperience. With a couple of years as vp I think she would be 100% ready to be president. Our ticket is right-side-up, and theirs is upside down.

Glad to be back on board.

The Dem convention was doom and gloom

The Repub convention is about how great this country is.

Who would you want to associate with?
