Far East Cynic

That was then…..

And this is now.

Let me go back to a comfortable analogy for me – sports… basketball. I use it because you’re naïve if you don’t see the national full-court press picking away right now.

 

Seems the shoe is on the other foot now.

  1. Skippy, never did like her. But she was no more over her head than most of the “enlightened ones” who think they know better.

    But one comment on your post about her. The shoe may be on the other foot now in her case, but didn’t you post a few weeks back when all of the hype was going on about the Feds taking over GM, and a graph you had showed that in the grand scheme of things in the American economy, it was not a big deal. Couldn’t we have said then that “The Economy of the U.S. is sound” as McCain said righ before the market tanked and all of a sudden it became a big issue. What is the difference now in what Palin said then and chose to do now, than what McCain said, and you showed a few weeks back (I get that one is economic and the other politicial but you get my point?)

  2. I think the issue is not Palin so much as what she has with her. The people who believe in her so totally believe in her that they are blind to the facts and to her own actions. Sarah Palin could molest children and most of her supporters could not care. They would still blame it on a big media conspiracy. There is a word for that-demagogue.

    Do you think there would be so many headlines if she had followed her own advice to Hillary? I don’t. Furthermore, and I’ve been doing research, Palin morphed politically when she got in the VP race. That’s what Alaska is complaining about. She was a centrist and once she got annointed by Bill Krystol she stopped doing the things that got her elected.

  3. Under your sub heading ” Another woman who did not have to pay her dues….”, every thread is about Palin. Just who are these other woman?
