Wink Coincidence? Fox news fires Palin right after Bobby Jindal says...

"We need to stop being the stupid party!"Coincidence? Maybe but it sure is a sweetly poetic and music to my ears.

Thought for the day!

I do not believe him when he says that...he just wants people in his party not to actually say dumb things....but he wants the dumb policies to continue

for example he wants to get rid of the progessive income tax and increase the regressive sales tax making to poor citizens of his state even poorer. He also is allowing creationism to be taught in schools in lieu of science.

This talk of not saying dumb things is just window dressing. Using euphemisms to disguise real policies...

Just another example of John McCain's poor decision making. I think her superficial initial attraction has waned.; however, I also think that she and her family were savagely attacked by a lot of the left's media attack dogs. One could only have hoped that they would have gone after Obama with such aggression and innuendo.

I don't know...I do not remember her family getting negative attacks. Most of the criticism of Palin came when everyone found out what a cipher she was and how she was not prepared for the office itself. She brought much of it upon herself, especially during the Kouric interview. Plus quitting her term as Governor to cash in on her short term fame and her subsequent use of racist terms during the 2012 election did not endear me nor the nation to her.

Once again Bhunter you are on the wrong side of history

She's still on TV?

Jindal just like 99.9% of "smart" politicians say on thing to the camera's, get the sound bite wanted. Then when it counts will do something else. The dumb ones get caught on camera or tape telling the truth!

Palin was subjected to some unwarranted speculation about the birth of her child and granddaughter. But that was mostly from the blogosphere.

On the other hand, Palin relished the role of attack dog during the '08 campaign. She splattered some of that mud upon herself. The folks in the media are human as well. Her constant attacks on the "lamestream media" weren't exactly out of the Dale Carnagie playbook when it came to winning friends in the press.

Regards,

D-Ray

The GOP has cleansed itself of one embarrassing moron. Actually two, if you count Beck.
A few million more to go before they regain my repsect.

What the fuck??

You're kidding, right?

"Kenyan Muslim communist? Birth certificate? Grades? Uses a teleprompter? Eats dog? Bill Ayers? Saul Alinsky? Malcolm X is his real father?

Michele hates America? Wants to tell us what we must and must not eat? Is "fat"?
