Bachmann/Palin rally heavy on God, terrorism

Palin is electric; crowds are struck with her charisma; it shines though and dominates every event. And because of outrageous attacks she is inoculated from ad homenem sick comments from those who fear her.

Though the left wing hates it, most Americans believe in the rule of law and limited government the Constitution requires. Anyone who reads her book witnesses Palin’s articulate presentation of conservative ideology that honors the Supreme Law that preserves freedom.

But most Americans are busy watching a game and then a movie; and proceed to get their news from John Stewart comedy show and SNL. Smears die hard with school yard adolescent mocking. It is a pity people want to look away as our freedom goes down the Marxist tube. To quote Mr. Stewart “It ain’t fu*#in’ funny man.”

The truth is that Palin and Bachman would like to see a Taliban style Religious Government in the US. What they call freedom is forcing you to live as they choose.

PS – Plus they are two of the dumbest politicians ever.

And not one, single idea for how to help the country deal with the present or the future. Not one.

People need to take a good, hard look at the meanings of the labels “conservative,” “liberal” and “progressive.” Tea Partiers in particular, including Palin and Bachmann, need to think–really THINK–about China and India and the EU and all those NEW entities, from transglobal companies to regional unions to growing economic superpowers. Is the way to deal with US competition on the world scene a “conservative” way? Can individual states and locales compete against CHINA??? How many telephone operators in Timbuktu have lost their jobs to INDIA??? And what about how far ahead the EU is in science and math? Take a close look at German–yes, GERMAN–economics.

Conservatives better get off their “we’re exceptional” arses and look around. “Liberals” take care of people, not profits, first. Why? Because profit is made by people, and if you limit the people pool, you therefore limit profits–both literally and figuratively. (That’s probably too deep for most “conservatives” to understand, however.)Meanwhile, “progressives” are devoted to progress–not past glories, but future ones.

What is most important to “conservatives”? CONSERVING (what they have). Not building the future, maintaining THE PAST. It is just undeniable. And for that, and its ramifications, I hope all but the innocent and unwillingly ignorant are DAMNED because the way they are dragging their feet into the future is causing millions of people to suffer and even die.

Luckily, for the most part, in twenty or thirty years, THEY will all be dead. If we can survive that long, we’ll finally be able to make the kind of lasting, secure progress this country desparately needs to survive in the new, global socioeconomic order.

Palin and Bachmann are hatemongers. Period. God help us all if a majority were to agree with the horrific lies they tell and proposals they espouse.

So this beauty queen retard (the acceptable Limbaugh-definition, not the mean-spirited Emanuel definition) and her mindless cronies imply that Democrats are godless.

Let me tell you something you ignorant hate machine; I fought for this country, a man who quickly became my best friend died for it at the hands of a religous nut, and I witnessed it first hand. I pray every night for his soul and his families. I am a Democrat. I am a veteran. and I am a Christian. and MY Savior, who healed the sick and fed the poor without hesitation, would have little use for you and your hate-filled impotent crowd.

And for the fools who will attack me, let me tell you something- I voted for McCain, after voting for Bush in 2000. I don’t have much use for Obama, but I pray for him each night too.

Theres nothing wrong with protesting government spending, but where in hell were you the previous 8 years when GWB was shreadin the constitution and spending Clinton’s surplus like it was his job.

I have no use for your hate, your intolerance, and your stupidity. May God have mercy on you.

Worshiping fear.

Ummmmm……cornelius…..most Americans see the hypocrisy of Palin and don’t have your nor Palin’s values.

The supreme law that preserves freedom? Care to elaborate on that? She wants to force her false christian values down people’s throats and call anyone who opposes her un-American.

Wow she is the bees knees isn’t she? ;-)

By the way…..someone needs to tell Michele she is not a teenager any longer. Look at the outfit.

The racism inherent in Bachmann and Palin’s comments is appalling. How can any American consider these people to be viable candidates for anything?

Michele Bachmann wasn’t wearing a cross?? Is she too embarrassed to proclaim her faith???

The “liberal” media screamed and yelled when they found a photo of Obama without a flag pin. I’m confused??

Palin is an inspiration to quitters everywhere…

HAHAHHAAHHAHHAH @ Palin. I hope she runs for President, Dems are guaranteed a victory.

A governor who quits her job as Governor should not be introduced on stage as Governor of Alaska. Sorry but they are by far the dumbest politicians this country has ever seen. And her voice is enough to kill a cat.

I am a Christian. I am also a Democrat. My husband is a third generation minister. I just returned from Haiti where myself and other church members handed out food and clothes, and comforted people who had lost their loved ones.

In my mind, the way that Palin and Bachmann preach hate, violence and spread misinformation or lies for their own personal gain is arguably the least Christian behavior that I’ve ever witnessed.

They’re hypocrites, and dangerous ones at that.

By the way, I’m beyond offended that they assume that any one who is not a Republican is not a Christian.

They may want to revisit that portion of the Consitution that assures individuals of freedom of religion and the separation of church and state.

Bachmann: “So if in fact there is a nation who is compliant with all the rules ahead of time… if they fire against the United States, [...] a cyber-attack, then we aren’t going to be firing back with nuclear weapons,” she said. “Doesn’t that make us all feel safe?”

So, why is the religious right defending and supporting someone who would use nuclear weapons against another who would perform a cyber attack? Either she (and her supporters) is too dumb to know what a cyber attack is, or so immoral that she (they) thinks bringing down a computer network warrants murdering hundreds of thousands who had nothing to do with it, when murdering even the person responsible would be reprehensible. It is becoming unfortunately clear that the world’s next fascist movement will come from the religious right right here in America.

I wonder what fox news would have to say about her comments.

So, someone from the religious right, please tell me, what would you say if Russia said they would launch a biological attack on the US if we broke into their computer systems again (as we have in the past)?

And you support these people? Not sure who is more immoral their supporters or themselves…

You deserve the lack of respect those on the left give you.

True Christians, I appreciate you saying something about what is being promoted by Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann. I don’t know what kind of church Michelle attends but she seems to share Palin’s extreme religious beliefs.

I don’t know much about Michelle, I admire the fact she and her husband care about foster children. I wonder if she knows Alaska has a VERY poor rating for taking care of homeless children, I believe (I’m not totally sure)it may be the worst rated in the United States.

Alaska has a lot of work to do on social issues, high rape and assault numbers, high suicide, high drop out rate, high teen pregnancy, lack of senior care…..I think Sarah had her chance to make positive change, but didn’t.

So I don’t appreciate her “acting” like an expert at change. I don’t think she walks her talk.

I feel it unfortunate that so much emphasis is put on religion by one party and used as a diversion by another party. Wouldn’t it be great if we could stay on track. Let’s just talk about it openly…..instead of calling names and implying you or I am a better faith-based individual than the other, can we just get to the heart of the matter. It appears one side prefers a progressive, gov’t dominated, wealth redistribution approach. That’s fine….let’s talk about it. The other sde wants limited government, less taxes, just about less of everything. Let’s talk about that. Can we please stop trying to be “holier than thou?”

I’m not really sure- if Christians are stupid and insignificant, what difference it makes whether or not the people who gathered together spoke about Jesus and God and expressed their faith.

That is their right- and for any “christians” who attack them for it, whether you provide abortion services in Cambodia, or hand out blankets in Haiti in the name of God- believe me there’s plenty of criticism that can be thrown your way.

It is amazing how the religious christian politics of the radical left can’t be criticized, but when the christian faith of the majority is expressed in a public venue that liberals did not have to attend if they don’t want to- it’s open season.

I think you all are just mad because Bachmann and Palin gathered a crowd of 11,000 or so- and the DFL- Clark, Ellison, McCullom, etc… were lucky to gather 300 all across the cities. There were people counting heads, and the press is being generous when they refer to “several hundred”- you should thank them for trying to shield you from such utter embarrassment and the reality of your irrelevance to the average folk.

[...] a minimum because I don’t believe in either one.  Then I mistakenly allow myself to read a Sarah Palin heavy news article and I start getting those green Bruce Banner eyes.  Now, I’m not going to turn this post [...]

Who wouldn’t Jesus bomb? Is Iran next? Let’s welcome in the purveyors of the next Crusade!

While few on “the left” and none from “the right” may have noticed yet, speaking truth to power [and ignorance] is beginning to make a positive impact. Let’s keep pushing back against the likes of Palin, Bachmann, Pawlenty and all the Limbaugh wannabees (Baker) — it is working….

“History will have to record that the greatest tragedy during this time of social transition is not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people.” (Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.)

Facts: the turd on the doorstep of Palinista happy-talk.

It is laughable to me that Jesus would launch a nuclear weapon.

These two proclaim themselves true christians and yet are ready to annihilate millions….if there computers go down??

Dumb and dumber. Is this what this nation has become? These two are the best the minority party has to offer?

Ah the visceral hatred for Bachmann is thick here. More evidence she is rght, and doing just what she was elected for. Tb he apoplectic rage on the left will continue until their little brains pop.

Jimmy, please don’t huff and post. You humiliate yourself.

Philip Avon St. Cyr:

Are you as clueless about economics as your post indicates?

You said:
“Is the way to deal with US competition on the world scene a ‘conservative’ way? Can individual states and locales compete against CHINA??? How many telephone operators in Timbuktu have lost their jobs to INDIA???”

Um, if you knew anything about economics, you would realize your “transglobal companies” are in business to make money – profits. And to maximize profits, dear naive one, you minimize costs. And since payroll is the largest component of costs for most companies, minimizing costs means minimizing payrolls.

So when liberal tax & spend morons like Obama, Pelosi, and Reid raise the costs of hiring employees in the U.S. by raising the minimum hourly wage of U.S. workers to more than the minimum DAILY wage of workers in China, where do you think these transglobal companies will go to reduce labor costs?

And when labor unions – backed by progressive democrats like Obama and his thugs – force companies to pay union wages in excess of 15% over non-union wages, is it any wonder GM and Chrysler (and any other U.S. unionized business) cannot compete on a global scale?

You say profit is made by people? No, productive labor is done by people – it is the cost of that labor that determines a company’s profit. And as long as unions and liberals/progressives continue to drive up the cost of labor in this country with high taxes, exorbitant costs of regulation, and skyrocketing union pay premiums, China will eat our lunch.

But you just go right ahead and argue for pricing ourselves out of the global labor market. When Obama and the unions eventually chase every job overseas, perhaps you’ll be able to convince the Chinese to redistribute some of their wealth to fund all of our unemployment!

lol

The following is a quote from the renowned author Sinclair Lewis:”When fascism comes to America it will be wrapped in the American flag carrying a bible”.Get on board all you nut jobs,this train is going straight to hell!!

I fear for our country when I see the vitriol spewed and its patrons call it Conservatism.

Bachmann supports her socialist government give aways that SHE receives for farm subsidies. It’s just your subsidies she hates.

Palin’s worst attribute is her following. It the criminally stupid leading the simply dumb.

@O.B. Ron Quixote

How cute, there still are people who believe the trickle-down-voodoo-reaganomics!

We should treasure those people as a separate species so we will be able to put them on display in a museum in the future.

Kevin:
Ever read Revelations?

Remember; Obama was took over from Dubya a country he ran into the ground for 8 years. He was handed the responsibility for 2 wars neither funded responsibly; the assumption being that our children and their children would pay for it. Obama won because a MAJORITY of Americans wanted him as president because he campaigned on promises of change which he is delivering; it is called Democracy! Get a clue; when you fail, we come in and clean up your mess. It is high time the Republic Party realize this and start cooperating, or, like what they used to do before the likes of Palin, Bachmann and the loudmouth rightie Chris Baker gained influence over them; working with Democrats; to fix all the things the Republic Party screwed up over the past eight years and reverse all the de-regulation they did since and because of another dimwit puppet president of theirs Ronald Reagan. The Repulic Party doesn’t work any more, they have to stay out of power for like – ever if conditions for the vast majority of people in this country are to improve. Palin, Bachmann and Baker need to shut up and let the process work.

Re: Palin, Bachmann, and the whole christo-fascist snake pit…Let them spit their venom.

The rest of us will remain busy. We’re continuing to repair the country from the damage caused by 8 years of these bloviating idiots.

For Heaven’s sake, I understand GOD is hiring private contractors, trained militia and buying a few drones to protect himself from the likes of those Palin/Bachmann warlords and their teabagging terrorists. More power to him, eh?…God bless, whomever.

“The group says it targets children because that’s when people are most likely to convert to Christianity.”

That explains why they were at this rally.

OB Ron Quixote:

I like your handle Ron. But have you ever heard of the principle of “comparative advantage”? It’s a theoretical principle of free trade and liberal economics. Look it up, and then come back and re-explain your rant.

I am offended that they think people have to be Christian to be American. That in itself is an anti-American belief.

Also, one of the speakers, I believe it was state party Chair Tony Sutton, said “We all know the Republican party is the party of people who work.” Also offensive. The anti-union party is the party of people who work? How’s that Massy mine situation workin out for ya?

I’m tellin’ you, the next time some geek hacker from Canada sitting in his bedroom tries to break into some secure U.S.-based website, I say we blow the whole country off the face of the earth with nuclear warheads.

That will put a stop to cyber attacks. Hurray for Michele Bachmann and her no-nonsense approach to everything.

Anybody that supports Michele Bachmann (R-Lunatic) is probably as nuts as she is.How many people have to tell this moronic imbecile that she she belongs in a rubber room!!!

As far as teabaggers proliferate with racists,I have two of them that reside across the street from me.They have five flags flying:one big one and four little ones with the don’t tread on me emblazoned on them.They also told me up front that they hate N*****S.I can probably find a few dozen more in my locale.Boy,this country is dangerous!

I would describe it as a no-BRAIN approach to everything.

I suppose that is to be expected from anyone that would judge basic biology based on the word of a preacher vs. the collective knowledge of 150 years of a horde of people who’ve devoted their adult lives studying and teaching the science of biology.

Like Palin said this week, “America does not need ‘this snake oil science stuff.’

People are deliberately choosing the path to Idiocracy.

The global warming scam has taught us not to trust scientists very much.

Of course I believe the universe is billions of years old, but does it really matter if some religions teach thousands of years? Not really.

…yeah, just like that. Another propaganda victim speaks.

GOTT MIT UNS

Jimmy: “The global warming scam has taught us not to trust scientists very much.”

How people like you are allowed to be left unsupervised is beyond me. The absolute stupidity of that comment has rendered me almost speechless! But i’ll quote you a little Thomas Jefferson “Shake off all the fears of servile prejudices, under which weak minds are servilely crouched. Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call on her tribunal for every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear.”

Tim: “I’m tellin’ you, the next time some geek hacker from Canada sitting in his bedroom tries to break into some secure U.S.-based website, I say we blow the whole country off the face of the earth with nuclear warheads”

“Wanton killing of innocent civilians is terrorism, not a war against terrorism.” – Noam Chomsky (Professor of linguistics at MIT)

Palin and Bachmann Dumb and Dumber need I say more.

“Anyone who reads her book witnesses Palin’s articulate presentation of conservative ideology that honors the Supreme Law that preserves freedom.”

omg… Palin did not write her own book.

TIM: I’m tellin’ you, the next time some geek hacker from Canada sitting in his bedroom tries to break into some secure U.S.-based website, I say we blow the whole country off the face of the earth with nuclear warheads.

Let me see….Canada is a NATO member and part of NORAD and has a mutual defence pact with the USA. After Pearl Harbour, Canada declared war on Japan 12 hours before the USA declared war on Japan. Canada joined in the War on Terror and has troops in Afghanistan and Navy ships working with the USA in the Gulf. This is the friend you want to nuke!?
