Sarah Palin

She specifically describes Mrs. Palin as, in short, a "redneck".
I got thinking about this and all I can say is "God, I hope so!"
This is NOT a civilized world we live in, nor are our enemies "civilized".
Have we forgotten the 444 days when our people were held captive in Iran, freed on Reagan's inauguration? What an embarrassment to Jimmy Carter! Have we forgotten that they hold no qualms about killing innocents, be they men, women, or children?
People fret about her so-called inexperience and her lack of background in foreign policy. This is why a president has advisers, and let's just say that at some point, McCain goes in for a colonoscopy (as Bush has done) and she is "acting President" under the Constitution, and this is when the terrorists strike, thinking her a mere weak female.
If in fact she is a "redneck", she just might have been in a bar fight or two, and if so, she knows that when you're fighting, there are no rules; the gloves are off and you fight to win.
As I recall, we had a President once who could properly have been called a "redneck", and Theodore Roosevelt didn't turn out to be too bad a guy.
He promoted the idea of "Speak softly and carry a big stick."
A "redneck" knows that if you carry it, you better be ready to use it, and as President, you carry some pretty big sticks.
I hope the rag-headed barbarian camel-jockeys do try something on her watch, I really do, because when it's all done, America will come back, just like after the Twin Towers fell and the Pentagon had a hole in it. We might have a big black eye, but our enemies will be lying on the floor, broken and bleeding, and they'll know that once and for all, they got their asses kicked by a girl.

Blessings,
B

I agree it is time for a redneck in the White House. No More lawywer or no street agitators.

Most of the people who would label us as "redneck" as a pejorative are exactly the people whose derision is prima facie evidence that we're living our lives well. You can know much about someone by their "enemies."

True, but he wasn't afraid to face death and danger. Even at the end of his life, he traveled into the unknown of the Amazon just for S&Gs. TR was pretty frickin hardcore.

What I am trying to say is that he didn't live a life of complete and total luxury. Sure some of it was, but he cast off some of that many times in his life, unlike some of his other famous family member politicians.

While we are on the subject of Sarah Palin, this is pretty funny.

If you don't want to publicly share, I'd love to get an email copy myself so I can give it a critical look.

This is what Obama spam looks like:

However, if you really want to see the letter....

Hi, Alison,

Here enclosed is one of the responses I got after forwarding your message from Roger. The undersigned, Jackie whoever, a friend of a friend, is writing to her classmates at Bryn Mawr.


To all of you, I promise not to send any more of these. You, living in the States, must know a lot more about it than I do.

There were some other comments by others who'd re-forwarded it also, that I didn't copy as irrelevant to the original. They were substantially similar.
