50 years from now the Midwest will still be warmed by Alaskan natural gas from the pipeline Governor Palin expedited. 50 years from now the country's economy will still be depressed by the irrational exuberance of debtmaking by a veto proof congress and a history proof president.

Obama will easily defeat Tina Fay and will run against Tina; In the real world, who knows. Anyone who promised Bolton at State and Rice at the NFL would have my vote

I can see Russia from my house!

I can see Russia from Alaska. Anybody can. Why was Palin ridiculed for simply stating the truth? Only the ignorant would do that.

Take away Obama's telepromter, and he is lost.

Definitely Palin over Obama.

I keep hoping that I will be able to vote for Republicans again one of these days, but, the GOP keeps becoming more and more dominated by the lunatic fringe. Can you believe that this is the "party of Lincoln"? (And T. Roosevelt, Taft, and Eisenhower?) Heck, today's Republicans make Ronald Reagan look like a flaming Liberal. So, I will have to vote straight Democratic until grown-ups are finally in charge again at the GOP. I hope I live long enough to see it.

Anon,

Are saying you voted for Reagan?

I just saw some news video of Palin's "Tea Party" people spitting on African-American congressman. Disgusting.

As that example of Republican hubris said, "Bring It On!" Palin vs Obama is a clear, simple choice.

There are news videos of an African American getting beat up by black and white goons from SEIU at a Tea Party event. Disgusting.

Please provide the link of the spitting incident. I couldn't find any on youtube, just leftwing reporters claiming secondhand hearsay.

Here is a direct link to show what disgusting stuff is going on by the thugs from the left.

Thank you, Tina, for making my point. Perhaps we can get the SPCA to protect Straw Dogs, thus destroying the Dem campaign strategy.

Hey, nony, Ike is why I was a republican only long enough to vote for Shirley Temple.

Disgusted, can you say "Agents Provocateur"? Whenever the Left has turned over the race card for a really long time, it has been the Joker. That account is way overdrawn.

@Disgusted: the Left is using phony reports of violence and racism in a fraudulent, cynical attempt to discredit the Tea Party, because they understand that the Tea Party is the most vital force in American politics right now and could spell their doom in November and beyond.

But the Left is not above meanspiritedness and violence themselves, since they deem themselves worthy of identifying deserving groups--namely, anyone who disagrees with them. Greg Gutfeld put it perfectly when he said:

"So as the anger surrounding the health care bill escalates, many in the media are reporting how the anger surrounding the health care bill is escalating!

Now I've been down this road so many times I could navigate it blindfolded and covered in peanut butter.

It goes like this: for the media, anger is only okay if its targets meet their stereotypical, romanticized criteria. Meaning: the corporation, the conservative, the daddy who never loved them.

Here's a list of people doing angry things the media is okay with:

-People calling Bush a Nazi

-Students and non students rioting on college campuses

-Animal rights freaks dousing rich folks with paint

-Actors wishing average folks would get rectal cancer

-Bureaucrats labeling military vets as potential violent right wing extremists

-Radical environmentalists advocating violence against loggers

-Pranksters throwing pies at conservative commentators (you know, somehow they never pie Michael Moore, which makes him sad; he likes pie)

But this health care bill anger is different from all that - not just because it's right, but because it involves Obama. And being angry at Obama is like being mad at Santa Claus. How can you be mad at Santa, when he brings us so many gifts?

And so, this anger is scary! It's a mark of incivility! It's deadly!"

And, no one on the Left seemed to have any objection when a bunch of SEIU thugs beat up a conservative protester named Kenneth Gladney, who happens to be black, at a town hall meeting in August 2009. Gladney required hospitalization for his injuries. You can see video of the beating here:

There is no such video. Either the poster is hallucinating or dissembling.
