[conspiracytheory]WHAT PART OF THESE TAGS DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND?[\conspiracytheory]

Oh, and bullshit. If they don't give it any importance they shouldn't always be hanging their damn hats on it, should they? All part of the show. I'll be in the lobby getting popcorn, let me know when someone decent comes on the screen. kthxbai

That's my point. More people hang that hat for them than they do themselves. Like I said I could care less about what they say or do. The Demoncrats are no better IMHO.

Are you kidding? Republicans RUN on "family values." It is their raison d'etre. Dems do not run on that. But if a dem is caught with his pants down, reps insist he resign. More reps have been caught in compromising positions though over the past few years than dems. Funny how none of THEM have resigned though.

Yea, that is her. I am talking about the Republicking party as a whole, or people who consider themselves conservative. Those that are "Family Values" or Religious Right are not the majority but more like a vocal Minority.

Why are people so afraid of Palin and what she says she stands for? She is never going to be elected to the White House.

Because this batshit crazy bitch was on a ticket that got 46% of the vote! That doesn't freak you out?

Not really. It was a non-vote for Obama as much as the Bush was a non-vote for Al Gore.

Because they think she may actually get their party's nomination, and they'll never win the general election.

I agree she can't be voted in. I even doubt a party nomination.

As much as a vote for Obama was a vote for "anything but Bush" ... this logic is slippery and reversible. The fact is: she got very close.

Never, ever, ever, ever underestimate the stupidity of bible-thumpers, rednecks, hillbillies, and assholes who vote for people like Bush or Palin.

People are scared of Palin because they saw that a stupid fucking idiot can get into office and fuck up the country for 8 years with George W. Bush. If that moron can get in, even a glassy-eyed, religious, half-retarded, wing-nut like Palin can get in.

And never overestimate the intelligence of libertarians who like to pigeon-hole people.
