If OBAMA WINS IT WOULD DIMINISH THE PRESTIGE OF THE PRESIDENCY

[UK populist]

These are the words that Bitch Palin said on Laura (Rabid) Ingraham’s show.

This needs to be absolutely stopped dead now. The Obama campaign has to get Mccain on live tv prime time denouncing this blatantly Racist statement and kick her of the ticket. She should then be impeached or whatever else it takes to get her out of a position of power.

1. Unbelievable!

3. The presidency has no prestige.

W took care of that.

[Bluebear]

4. Kick her off? Why, this will only endear her to the Republicans more!

[UK populist]

48. If it doesn't get denounced quickly what will it lead to

I don't have a vote in this election being a Brit, but I fear to where this could lead if it is not stopped now. I know this might sound tinfoil hat like, but I am starting to believe this is an extremely coordinated tactic of vilifying Obama so much that if and when the election is stolen and everyone goes to the streets there will be a very angry part of the populace willing to believe anything that Bush tells them. Their base is getting very riled against Obama and if they are going to steal the election they will need it out on the streets counteracting and fighting with the legitimate protesters. This will then give the Admin the excuse they will need to put down the riots with any force. They already have control of the media to a degree that no liberal voices will be allowed on the airwaves if this happens.

Like I said before this is an extreme theory, but I wouldn't doubt them of being capable of anything to retain power.

[Laelth]

73. I share your tinfoil.

I believe the Republican Party has become a dire threat to the Constitution of the United States. If they keep power this year, I believe we will have a one-party dictatorship with only a token opposition party (if the token opposition party is allowed to survive).

I agree that the Republicans are capable of doing anything to keep power. They now appear to be willing to do anything, and that is the source of my concern.

-Laelth

[bertman]

90. UK populist, you got it exactly right. These ROVE-INSPIRED fuckers never do ANYTHING without

a reason that fits into their battle plan.

Palin is not just spouting off. She's getting this from the campaign. They want a feeding frenzy and they're getting it.

We need some shark repellent.

[potone]

94. I think it could be even worse.

They are inciting violence against Obama. They can't win, except by default or theft and they know it. This election is becoming pure agony.

[maxsolomon]

5. counterpoint:

[Donkeykick]

7. Goes to show you something.

Palin has no squabbles over Laura's show, but the rest of the press, you get to watch the barracuda turn in to a minnow. :eyes:

[Mme. Defarge]

8. What a hoot!

How much further into negative territory could it possibly go?

[HeeBGBz]

9. There goes the neighborhood...

Where have I heard that before? These people are pathetic.

[shadowknows69]

10. knuckle dragging,bigoted, evil harpy.

[SammyWinstonJack]

11. In what respect?

:rofl:

[TwilightGardener]

12. That's another step over the line. There had better be screaming and hollering.

[TwilightGardener]

15. BTW, does anyone now doubt the Palin "Sambo" story?

[Ilsa]

28. I guess I missed that one. Maybe it was so horrible I couldn't bear to read it . nt

[beac]

32. Not a bit. I'm sure she said it and more than that one time at the diner too. n/t

[progressivebydesign]

53. thank you for bringing that up. People here discounted that story..

..even though several people went on record saying that she was quite racist (charming, vindictive, and racist.) I found no reason why a native alaskan waitress would just come up with such a detailed story about her and talk to a major journalist in LA about it.

I have no doubt she is racist. Alaska has a major problem with racism and sexism.

[baby_mouse]

13. That's them lost good and hard. They can never win now. NT.

[melody]

14. She is to politics what Minnie Pearl was to stand-up comedy.

She has no credibility to denounce. Everybody laughs at her except for the people at her "rallies".

[trof]

43. I resent that. I knew and liked Minnie Pearl.

She was a funny lady.

[melody]

55. No offense, trof. My grandparents loved her, too, but a brilliant comic she wasn't imho

YMMV

[Vinca]

16. OMG - I'm about to utter that word McCain called Cindy. nt

[shadowknows69]

30. I found it hard not to

But I've settled on Harpy, if that's still too sexist then I apologize but that's as gracious as I can get now.

[guitar man]

17. !

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

as if....:rofl:

18. LOL

Yah, you betcha, Skanky would bring sooooo much prestige to the presidency.

20. When Obama wins, it will RESTORE the prestige of the presidency.

Seems Ms. Mooseburger is a little confused, there.

[Jack Rabbit]

21. Ms. Palin herself couldn't diminish the prestige of the presidency any more than Bush & Cheney have

This lady makes no sense. She has nothing to talk about. She knows nothing beyond what it takes to be governor of Alaska.

[EmeraldCityGrl]

22. I have never said I hated anyone...

but I hate Republicans. There's a line you just don't cross and they have crossed it.

After dragging this country through the mud for eight years, they can't muster
up enough dignity to accept the course this election has taken with some dignity.

[SammyWinstonJack]

29. Dignity should never be used in the same sentence with repugs. And I hate them too!

[MsLeopard]

51. I'm with you too

Rethugs have no shame, no sense of respect for anything than their own greed. Palin = waste of space.

[SammyWinstonJack]

56. palin is an oxygen thief.

[wildbilln864]

23. k&r! I completely agree. Where's the other r's?

[rock]

24. McCain then sang the Star Spangled Banner

while simultaneously farting the bass accompaniment.

[Marr]

25. Definitely an appeal to racism. After all, this is a woman who's done this:

and this:

I mean c'mon.

[Ilsa]

26. That ignorant, fucking evil twit. Go home and get your other

daughters knocked-up, okay Miss Runner-Up?

God, just when I think I can calmly handle rethuglicans, she opens her mouth again.

[baby_mouse]

27. But everyone can see that he's classier than her. You cant be an elitist *and* a low-life, Sarah...

They're screwing with their own spin.

They've lost...

[TwilightGardener]

35. LOL--so he's NOT an elitist, then? Or is he the first member of the elite

and well-educated to be the anti-prestige?

[baby_mouse]

42. His skin colour is the only she can be referring to. She's screwed herself in the chops.

As in, pretty seriously screwed herself right bang in the chops.

[TwilightGardener]

Of course. He's a US Senator, he's a constitutional law professor, he's a Harvard grad--

I defy her to isolate just what it is about Obama that would lower the "prestige".

[TheCowsCameHome]

31. Fuck Laura Ingraham.

On second thought, don't do that. Yuk.

Isn't she the one that couldn't find a man who could stomach sleeping with her, so she bought a kid instead?

edit: sp

[shadowknows69]

33. At this point, after what Bush has done to the office

You could elect Darth Vader and it would improve the prestige of the Presidency.

[succubus.blues]

34. god what an evil, horrid woman

:eyes:

[SammyWinstonJack]

69. There is truly something wrong with her. That she could even imagine herself qualified for this

position is mind boggling. She more and more, reminds me of bu$h.

[graywarrior]

36. I hope she gets what's coming to her a thousand fold.

[fascisthunter]

37. That's Because in Reality(her fear), She's Diminishes the VP Spot

classical psyops projection..... always pre-empt attention from your foes strength to hide your own weaknesses.

[JuniperLea]

47. The entire McGrampy & Vampy campaign has been projection

They have been talking about themselves a lot...

[fascisthunter]

62. Bush and the Whole GOP use it a Strategy

or at least it seems to be a strategy.

[BigBearJohn]

38. And if Palin is EVER the President, what would THAT do?

:spray: :puke:

[baby_mouse]

44. Circumvent dirty lowlife elitists with wholesome moose-shooting and honest, prestigious racism. NT

[Fresh_Start]

39. Impossible, after all GWB was president for 8 years

there is not prestige left in the office

[driver8]

40. Bush took care of the "prestige of the Presidency".

Hopefully Obama can restore some respect to the office.

[ColbertWatcher]

41. She's right. If Palin says it, it must be coming straight from God himself.

It must be true.

[NashVegas]

45. They Know They're Going To Lose And Are Trying to Make It Impossible To Govern

By sowing civil strife and discontent.

[beac]

46. Bingo!

Palin is a bigger terrorist than Ayers ever was.

[progressivebydesign]

49. OMG - what a horrific person she is. She and McCain are equally hateful.

I was reading a comment from DKOS's link, and a guy posted that his friend was at the last McCain/Palin rally and the conversations in the crowd were... well... more vile than anything they were shouting. McCain and Palin have managed to attract the lowest common denominator, and have given free license to the religious extremists, the marginally mentally healthy, and the racists. They are allowing the racism to flow freely because their ENTIRE game plan right now is to CREATE DOUBT about Obama.

They are courting the Bradley effect, and their specialty is creating doubt... making people hesitate in the voting booth "can we really trust him? "who IS Barack Obama?" "what is he hiding?" "what will he do to America?" etc. etc. etc. They are courting the scum of the earth by dragging Obama down into the mud. Just as they did with Kerry's war hero reputation.

The ASSHOLES that run McCain's campaign, like the campaigns of Bush, Chambliss, and others, don't care about the damage the are doing to the Country. We need each other now more than ever.. and since Newt Gingrich and Jerry Falwell started their attacks on our unity, they are dividing us more than ever. I SO wish I could find enough kindness in my heart to turn the other cheek right now, but I can't. they have gone scorched earth.

[GreenPartyVoter]

50. Just say it already, Sarah you bigot. Don't elect Obama because he's a n.....

[lpbk2713]

52. Lady Bullwinkle continues to sound like Coultergeist with each passing day.

[Greyskye]

54. If McCain/Palin wins...

[TwilightGardener]

60. ...

[McCamy Taylor]

57. That is so funny coming from Ms. Joe Six Pack who thinks the plural of medium is mediums.

Maybe she is a witch and she was talking about seances?

[entanglement]

58. Disgusting. Even Cheney wouldn't say something like that.

[Hubert Flottz]

59. I hope Keith Olberman sees this story.

Sarah will win the award tonight.

[Raine]

61. Hah, Obama will restore prestege the presidency! nt

:think:

[my2sense]

63. K & R

[nichomachus]

64. More than this?

[Arugula Latte]

65. And a drunken frat boy who never earned anything in his life but was

placed into office via coup d'etat because of daddy's friends doesn't diminish the prestige? :grr:

I can't say online what I'd like to see happen to Sarah Palin. :grr:

[malaise]

66. This from an ignorant moron who paraded her pregnant

teenage daughter and the baby daddy on a party convention stage. I don't think she understands the meaning of diminish.

[SammyWinstonJack]

67. Good point!

[gkhouston]

68. When Obama wins, he'll restore *honor* to the Presidency. Prestige is for figureheads. n/t

edited to correct the worst typo I've made in at least 10 minutes. :-)

[Generic Other]

70. Apalling! This is the most horrible thing for her to have said ever!

While she makes such a ludicrous charge, she herself remains one of the least qualified vice presidential candidates either party has ever nominated to the office. Coming from one like that, perhaps we should not be surprised at anything she says. I have not met a woman I felt so little respect for as I do for Mrs. Palin.

[sinkingfeeling]

71. How can there be any prestige of the presidency left after Bush? I think Obama will

restore prestige to both the office and the nation.

[Phentex]

72. It can't go much lower

than Bush. It just can't.

[Glimmer of Hope]

74. Their campaign is disgusting and pathetic.

[City Lights]

75. Raw sewage runs through Sarah's veins.

She really is a vile person.

I cannot stand her.

[Kansas Wyatt]

76. What cave has she been hiding in for the last 8 years?

This country has just seen and suffered from the absolute worst pResident in it's entire history.

For Christ's sake, these people have some serious mental issues.

[JonLP24]

77. I'm sure Mr Bush was very prestigous himself

:eyes:

[SalmonChantedEvening]

78. There's no prestige right now

Sorry Saran, err I mean Sarah, but lil Dubbie's done wrung all the prestige outta the Presidency and Senator Obama has no other option but restoring it simply because he is Not George Bush.

But he will do more. Restoration of rights stolen, alliances stomped away from, our reputation for standing on the side of justice all but ruined, and America's faith in itself.

And that should only take until February. ;)

[tjwash]

79. Holy irony batman!

:rofl: She of all the fucking people to talk about bringing the prestige of a public office down. :rofl:

She'd brings down the prestige of a fucking swamp just by wading into it.

What's next? Is she gonna say something even dumber like..."Russia shouldn't invade a sovereign nation, it's just wrong for a big nation to pick on a small, weak, one" or something?

[hulklogan]

80. What the fuck does that mean? It's not a prestigious office now after 8 years of chimperor.

Sarah Palin is a dog gone monstrosity

[Leopolds Ghost]

81. "The fires of hell are frozen glaciers compared to my hatred for the American government"

Palin and her husband got started in politics in the Secessionist/Survivalist
Alaska Independence Party. Here's what the founder of AIP had to say:

"The fires of hell are frozen glaciers compared to my hatred for the American government,
and I won't be buried under their damn flag. I'll be buried in Dawson, and when Alaska is
an independent nation, they can bring my bones home, back to my country...

You renounce allegiance, and you pledge your efforts, your effects, and your life to Alaska,
that's how I do. I am an Alaskan, you see."

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x4186282

Here's another quote:

"Our current governor, who I mentioned the last conference, the one we were hoping
would get elected, Sarah Palin, did get elected. ... You should infiltrate -- I know
that the Christian Exodus is in favor of it, the free state movement is in favor of it.
Put the Republican label on it to get elected. That's all there is to it."

Linky linky (Sarah Palin adresses AIP Convention)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eniG9l_7its

Feel free to use this when responding to Palin's insults -- if you don't plan on using this,
why bother attacking her at all?

[kitty1]

82. I agree, Obama just doesn't have the eloquence that bush does

nor the orator skills either. How can Obama match the class of Bush.
Whether Bush is kissing Arabic Kings, or making jokes with the Queen of England. All heads of state, are in awe of his brilliance and sophistication.
Rubbing the shoulders of the Chancellor of Germany. Speaking words of wisdom to Tony Blair when a mike was left turned on. (Something about wanting another coke.)
Or passing important notes of relevance to Condoleeza Rice at UN meetings.
By asking the president of Brazil at one time if there were blacks there too, George Bush proved that he is an inquisitive and thought provoking man. He likes to learn. He didn't know who the president of Pakistan was in his early years, and now he knows.
"is our children learning" is not his mantra any more. No he has corrected his grammar and has made himself prestigious.
He is a shining example to all. It's not too late for Obama to catch up though. There's hope yet.

[codjh9]

83. Holy SHIT! IF SHE WAS ELECTED - no, hell, the fact she's even a NOMINEE - has diminished

the prestige of the VP... GOD I can't wait till we kick these people's asses...

[sellitman]

84. Just when you think they cannot go any lower.

I guess I should know better.

[Kablooie]

85. Fuckin' A! Why doesn't someone take a sledge hammer to her head or something?

[Waiting For Everyman]

86. Oh lord. Like McC would help it out.

Just like * did.

[Solly Mack]

87. The right has opted for a campaign of destruction to follow Obama into office

If people will recall, the right was trying to impeach Clinton even BEFORE he took office

If they can't win it...they'll make it a hostile environment for Obama.

The Congressional GOP will be hostile as well

right-wing pundits, right-wing talk radio...the usual suspects....for 4 years....nothing but attack.

Working their racist/bigoted base into a frenzy is very much part of that....esepcially a campaign of hate this close to the election .....nothing to lose but the election...unleash the hate...rile the haters.....and let it carry over to and after election day

[Incitatus]

88. Are comments like that really supposed to win over independents and undecided voters?

What the hell is she thinking? All the racists are already voting for McCain, anyway.

The DU ADBOT just put a Palin ad under my post. I almost threw up a little bit in my mouth.

[workinclasszero]

89. Palin is a stupid POS, ain't she?

What a tool. Palin makes George Bush look like an intellectual giant!:rofl:

The only jackasses running now that would diminish the prestige of the presidency are McKKKain and Failin Palin!

[Obamarama]

91. Fucking low rent whores...both of them.

I wish that walking, talking yeast infection would slither her way back to Alaska.

[ecstatic]

92. OH MY GOD. I assumed the quote was from a KKK site or something

But sarah fuckin palin? You've gotta be kidding me. And where would the prestige of the presidency end up if her ignorant, low class ass won.

[Connonym]

93. has she been paying attention at all the past 8 years?

W has already fucked up presidential prestige. Obama will restore intelligence and class to the White House and the grown ups really will be back in charge.
