What you ask. Do you believe that Pailin said she can see Russia from her house or that she doesn't read any news? The first quote was from SNL and used to portray her as stupid, which was a common theme in the media.

Patently false, nonsense. He supported the overthrow of Gaddafi in Lybia, who at the time while not a friend of the US, was not anti US and as a result, now Lybia is in the control of radical Islamists. Mubarak was pro western and Obama supported his overthrow in favor of the Muslim Brotherhood who for all intents supports terrorist organizations. Everyone recognizes his failed pull out of Iraq which facilitated the growth of ISIS. I can't even describe the lunacy of his policy toward Syria, which strengthen Russian involvement in the Middle East and emboldened Iran. Obama is a mess in the middle east.

If you want research on food stamps, the labor participation rate and numbers of unemployed, look them up yourself, assuming you can operate google.

Any rational and honest person knows that to be elected governor of a state you can't be stupid. Your comment about not knowing who are allies are is just a continuation of the disparagement that Palin has suffered in the media by people who claim there is a war on women, as they issue their own slurs against women. In addition, the recent economic rebound, despite declining orders for durable goods and big ticket items is the result of people having more disposable income due to the decrease in gas prices. The stock market bubble is the result of six years of pumping by the Fed. When that stops and interest rates rise, watch what happens to the market. We've had a recovery from near depression which is the longest in American history because Obama cares more about redistribution than he does about economic growth. I've never hoped for failure of his economic policies, but as I looked at them, I've never seen one which I thought was intelligent.

The best energy policy is an all of the above policy. Alternative energy is worth pursuing however there's not much of it ready for market. A war on coal, instead of promoting clean coal technologies is just ignorant seeing we have more coal than any other nation. The investment this nation has made in bankrupt alternative energy companies should tell you something.

Considering that I can figure out how to separate a reply and address points individually, you can bet your rear end I can look up #'s.

Odd that in the time you wrote that out, you could have pasted a graph or two.

We won't even bother pointing that my "patently false" assertion was about your unemployment comment. Maybe focus less on spinning your response and more on reading what you're replying to.

I have a personal dislike for cut and paste. Sorry if you can't be bothered by writing paragraphs.

Had to tell - at this point given what we know or don't know, I'd say she would NOT be better than a bowl of wax fruit, but would be better than Obama. I think the wax bowl of fruit has an edge over both.

My suggestion would be if you have content or opinions, add them. If you want to discuss typing, have a good day.

Sarah Jessica Parker would be a better President than Obama.

Honestly, he was a Jr Senator that not even the Clintons took seriously. And for good reason. He wasn't qualified

You Libs endlessly make excuses for his incompetence and the impact of his Policies by blaming it on a partisan Congress thats only there to stop him from being successful.

But thats Bull ****. Every President had a oppositional Congress. Reagan, Bush and even Clinton, but they had the competence and the experience to work with that Congress to get what needed to get done for the good of the Country.

Hell, Clinton found a way to work with Newt Gingrich of all people.

Obama is a hack ideologue who cares more about furthering his own agenda than whats best for the American people.
 
Would Palin been a better president than Obama?
Hmmmm,

If Palin would have been president

1. Obamacare would have been a no starter
2. There would have been a balanced budget every year and all the constant calls for more money to keep government running would not have been an issue. And massive porkulas bills adding to the debt would have been avoided.
3. The EPA would never have been allowed to grow on steroids passing hundreds of new regulations that have cost a lot of jobs.
4. The XL Pipeline would have been completed, drilling on government lands would have been allowed and lifting the ban on drilling in Alaska, increased offshore drilling and this country would have been self sufficient without the need to import from Venezuela and Middle East countries that do not like us. While creating thousands of good paying jobs in all sectors.
5. The border would have been secured before we experienced the influx of people pouring across them.
6. She wouldn't have been a president that went on a Magical Mystery tour apologizing for the U.S.
7. Our troops would not have been pulled out of Iraq just to keep a campaign promise and most likely would have avoided ISIS that has emerged.
8. There would not be any talks with Iran, lifting sanctions and unfreezing funding and terrorism would not have spread as it has the past 6 years.
9. Natural gas would have been are newest export providing energy to Japan and a good part of the EU.
10. Many terrorists at GITMO would not have been released.

So yes, just on ideology alone, she would have been better for the country.
 
This is not unlike the Putin comparisons.

Would you prefer a **** sandwich or a **** omelette?

Had to stop here. I was laughing too hard.

I understand.

The world of Obama has not gone well. There's all those lies and back stabbing, three ****ed up wars and clearly the lad has no sense how to wipe his ass......

So, yes, an unhealthy obsession with a tall, attractive, domineering woman would be necessary to take your mind off the dismal performance of a carnival clown.

Let's see. Sarah Palin was Governor of Alaska, and from all reports did a good job. See quit before she was supposed to, though, just like Obama and his one half term senate career where he is noted for voting "present" on the most crucial piece of legislation he would ever face.

And, she was selected as a WOMAN running mate on the Republican ticket, something Republicans are not supposed to be able to do at all, and something the Democrats have been terrified over since old Geraldine....

So that's a huge record of which you can be critical. The fact she has not held office for seven years does not dismiss the fact every male Democrat has had a hard on for her since she was shown shooting a ****ing bear. Oh, and she shops in Canada....AND her kids play hockey.

Yep, when your day is filled, day after day, defending lies, mistakes, arguing things never happened, Sarah Palin is the perfect target.

But, to answer your question? I have left over food in my refrigerator that could be a better president than Obama.

At least Sarah Palin has actually had experience in politics, can balance a budget and work with others......

Obama has "enemies"

Well I am glad you got a good laugh but in all seriousness, without Obama there would have been no Obamacare. In 2008 Obama had a Democrat Congress that shoved everything they could get through those first two years. Massive spending bills for "shovel ready jobs" that weren't. Massive increases in number of weeks for unemployment benefits, and lowering the standards of what is considered to be disabled allowing millions to collect disability. None of that would have occurred in the years 2008-2010. They would not have occurred with McCain either. And if a Republican had been elected in 2008, there would have been a balanced budget every year and greenie weenies wouldn't be running the EPA and we would be energy self-sufficient with the aid of our neighbors to the North.

Edit- you all need to focus on the ideological differences and not the person. They use to say "It's the economy stupid". Well today "It's the ideology stupid".

actually Quayle was pretty competent as a senator and not bad VP. He actually had more credentials in 88 than Obama had in 08

There as something I observed during that election cycle, that seems to have escaped most others.

Before Bush Sr. announced his running mate, the press was bringing up and discussing a number of possible candidates. At some point, the news media's attention focussed on someone who they described as an up-and-coming young senator, almost a political prodigy. They called him a “Robert Redford look-alike” and compared him to JFK. I don't know how much influence this media attention had on Bush Sr.'s choice, but as soon as he announced that he had selected Dan Quayle to be his running mate, the press immediately turned against him; and for the rest of the campaign, and for the four years he was in office as Vice President, the press did everything they possibly could to make him look bad. I never saw any evidence that Quayle was nearly as unintelligent, unwise, incompetent, or otherwise as bad as the press persisted in trying to make him out to be.

Sarah Palin didn't get the same build-up that Quayle got, but as soon as McCain announced her to be his running mate, she got exactly the same treatment from the press that Quayle did; and has been so treated ever since.

Uh, no.

“Writing paragraphs” means, actually writing your own paragraphs, putting your own thoughts into words. It doesn't mean copying and pasting other people's writings.

Maybe. But a bowl of wax fruit can't screw up too much, Sarah Palin could screw up much more than any bowl of was fruit.

As much as the Democrats sling **** at the Repubicans for being "anti-woman", the last high profile woman for them goes back to 1984...

Geraldine Ferraro - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A woman picked because she was a woman, never to be seen nor heard from again.

But, the Republicans pick the first woman in 30 years, and they get still get raked obsessively so, seven years later. as we speak there are three active threads about private citizen Sarah Palin and one about a woman who has lusted after the presidency for 25 years, and who has a record that can be seen and criticized for her decisions, not how she dresses or what he kids do...


and the way Hillary dresses is perfect Target wear

Hillary's not a "high profile woman"? Nor, apparently, are the two women Obama put on the Supreme Court?

No actually.

Since when does HIllary rate three of four threads in one day and the bimbos on the court? Name them without looking it up, name their kids and where they live.....

we all know that about Sarah don't we...and the fact she once used her personal email for government business, what she eats, the mental status of her kids..

When was the last time anyone started a thread on Billary's daughter...Chelsie was it?

No one, not even some vagina exposing Hollywood socialist could come anywhere NEAR the status with you all hold Sarah....compared to her they are "who are they again?" in the progressive playbook.....

And not one female VP candidate in 30 years, only the washed up wife of a sexual deviant and some lawyers .....

If you're impressed with that I am not. We had a woman prime minister 25 years ago, six of the ten premiers are women so to me, no American party has bragging rights on women's advancement, glass ceilings etc. There still aren't any near power and the one who was you despise because she is the "other" party

This poll is like a litmus test for nutters. It's like having a poll: "Would Lyndon LaRouche have been a better president than Bush?"
