Palin fires back on Facebook with list of Obama gaffes

oh come on.I have some conservative leanings but Sarah Palin? she is obvously out of her depth.How could you possibly refer to north korea as an ally even by mistake it doesent make sense because i just like pretty much everyone on here has followed politics in the last 5 years or so is pretty clear on North Korea.

How can you even think about her as president? What would Thomas Jefferson make of her? She seems to know virtually nothing about anything.
 
Then Obama must be "out of his depth" for thinking there were 67 states. Look, people make gaffes. To call Palin a consistent idiot yet not Obama for his constant gaffes and failures as president is ridiculous.
 
I'm just saying what many people have found out. You went ballistic whenever anyone wanted you to actually prove your arguments. You outright stated you will not use linear regression. Someone who outright says they will not use the sole way of proving their arguments is clearly not interested in honest debate.



Actually you blame him for everything because you're a partisan hack.



Like increased GDP. 1.1 million new private sector jobs. Winding down of Iraq. GM's IPO. Yeah. Nothing.



Which is expected since he didn't use one of the few tools to solve a financial/leverage recession. I bet you have no idea what tool that is.



Care to compare that to another president who had a massive financial/leverage recession during his presidency? No you won't. Because historical statistic perspective is not something you want to do as it is requires honesty.

Woot. More raw aggregate data showing...nothing to support your claims. How about...oh never mind. I know you refuse to use linear regression despite it being the only way to prove your arguments.

Thanks again for showing I'm right. You won't include WHY this recession is different and you won't offer any solutions.

It doesn't make sense to you because you obviously did not listen to the tape.

LOL. You just made one! He said 57 states. Which in terms of total US territories and states isn't far off depending on how you classify the US claimed islands. Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, United States Virgin Islands, America Samoa, the bunch of US claimed unihabited islands in the pacific, the bunch of US claimed unihabited islands in the Caribbean and you get 57 states and territories.
 
maybe Obama was including territories???;)

Hmmm or wanna be states?

51 Canada
52 Puerto Rico
53 DC - of course (liberals dream)
54 UP of Michigan
55 U.S. Virgin Islands
56 Guam
57 American Samoa....

see, 57 states.... well, perhaps 100 years in the future...

yea, but I don't think that's what Obama meant. He was just confused.
He confused American states with the 57 Muslim countries.
Anyone could make that mistake.

Well i did how many "mistakes" is she allowed? Ask yourself would you have a more successful public image than her in the same situation?

Don't laugh. It's worked for her so far. It even got them to take the "death panels" out of the health care bill. Remember? The ones that weren't there?

Yes, thanks to her the opposite-of-death-panels clause was removed. Thank GOODNESS Medicare recipients will no longer be able to receive those optional end-of-life consultations that would make sure their health care wishes would be followed.

It wasn't even a big deal. She knew Noth Korea was not an alli. She was talking about them being our adversary before that "gaffe"

Yea she was told what was going on before the interview.Do you really think she actually is checking on geopolitics daily? I dont get that impression.I think its more like some advisor tells her what she think before she has an interview.

Don't know, but I'm glad they took it out. End of life counseling should be between you your doctor/family.

Breaking: Finance Committee drops “death panel” provisions from Senate bill « Hot Air


THE PRESIDENT[/B]: So that’s where I think you just get into some very difficult moral issues. But that’s also a huge driver of cost, right?
I mean, the chronically ill and those toward the end of their lives are accounting for potentially 80 percent of the total health care bill out here.DAVID LEONHARDT: So how do you — how do we deal with it?
THE PRESIDENT: Well, I think that there is going to have to be a conversation that is guided by doctors, scientists, ethicists. And then there is going to have to be a very difficult democratic conversation that takes place. It is very difficult to imagine the country making those decisions just through the normal political channels. And that’s part of why you have to have some independent group that can give you guidance. It’s not determinative, but I think has to be able to give you some guidance. And that’s part of what I suspect you’ll see emerging out of the various health care conversations that are taking place on the Hill right now.

(irrelevant presidential quote removed)

See, this is what I'm talking about. People have no idea what this provision actually did, they just accepted what the right wing told them. They assumed that some government body or agent was actually involved in this end-of-life counseling.

The "death panel" provision would be a conversation between you and your doctor, just like millions of people already do. The provision simply allowed Medicare to pay the doctor for the consult instead of it coming out of your pocket.

Apparently, that bothers you people.

edit: In fact, the provision would have specifically blocked funds for counseling that presents assisted suicide as an option. So much for pushing euthanasia.

Please Sarah - announce on Christmas Eve that you are running for President. It would best gift ever and make that Official 200 shot Red Ryder BB gun with a compass in the stock look like crap.

Why would you want another 4 years of Obama? Anyone including Sarah Palin will do better than this leftwing empty suit. the results don't seem to matter to you and the question is why?
 
Palin has an obsession with Obama. It's disturbing. Everything people say about her, she reverts to Obama. Dirt off his shoulder I guess.

I, too, am obsessed with Obama because of the mess he has created of this economy. His massive expansion of govt, bailout of Democrat constituent groups, adding 4 million to the unemployment roles, and 3 trillion to the debt in just two years are results that should have everyone obsessed with getting rid of this empty suit. Sarah Palin vs. Barack Obama? Hmmm,, let me think about that for a nano second, Sarah Palin!

It's an attempt to associate herself with the presidency.

Are you talking about Obama or Reagan?

Guess data and facts don't matter to you, Suggest you do some research. Reagan doubled GDP, doubled govt. revenue, created 18 million jobs, and added 1.7 trillion to the debt. Obama has lost 4 million jobs, added 3 trillion to the debt, had almost zero economic growth.

Apparently facts don't matter to Obama supporters.

How much of that had Reagan done in 2 years? Oh yeah, context is not the conservatives friend...

The true context is the economic policies implemented and the economic conditions inherited. Reagan promoted a pro growth, pro business economic policy whereas Obama promoted a pro govt., pro wealth redistribution economic policy. The Reagan tax cuts weren't passed until the fall of 1981 and thus didn't go into effect until 1982. Obama economic policy was passed in February 2009.

I find it interesting that Obama supporters and liberals don't understand the difference between economic policies. Not sure why I waste my time trying to convince a liberal the benefits of keeping more of what they earn. Guess the stress of spending your own money is too much for you. There is only one political ideology that really doesn't care how much money even you make and that would be the Conservative ideology which Reagan promoted.
 
Political attacks by facebook.
Sigh.
Facebook feud--this may indeed overcome her perceived lack of gravitas.

Perhaps if she had just let it go, there wouldn't be so much coverage of it. I think this is what serious politicians do with little meaningless gaffes--they acknowledge them and move on. There's not a politico out there without one.

Most of politicians don't wallow in self pity and poor-me-ism about them. Fanning the flames of how "persecuted" she is does serve the purpose of getting attention. But I do not think that all publicity is good publicity when it comes to seeking the presidency.
But failing to get a nomination in 2012 will work to her advantage for her media circus and shill company speaking tours. She will go on to be a media personality who "has beef" with media personalities. Playing her poor-me, persecuted Palin card will work for extending her career as a talking head.

She and Paris Hilton both kind of amuse and befuddle me--their both paradoxically and oxymoronicly(sp?) famous for being famous.

What really befuddles me is why anyone continues to support Barack Obama and always change to focus to Sarah Palin. Don't results matter to an Obama supporter? Apparently experience doesn't matter because in that area Palin wins hands down. Seems like a lot of those so called "compassionate, equal opportunity" Liberals have a problem with a strong pro life woman. Says a lot about the liberal ideology and what a phony one it is.
