Sarah Palin is America’s Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

How anyone, either conservative or liberal, Democrat or Republican, can take her seriously needs to have their heads examined.

Seriously...

Before they hurt themselves or someone.

We are a "Capitalistic country" already. Maybe use a dictionary before you start making accusations about what you obviously know little. Capitalism can be defined as an economic system in which wealth, and the means of producing wealth, are privately owned, OR as an economic and social system in which individuals can maximize profits because they own the means of production. I think the term you were looking for in your rant was “socialism.”

Maybe "us conservatives" are the reason there is not a Republican in the white house any longer.

Uhhhh---we are a capitalist society already---under the Bush's and all! Eich god!

You people who don't see what Obama is doing are brain dead. He is trying to make us a Capitalistic country, and he wants to be Hitler reborn. He is not a celebrity, and cannot part the seas like some people think, and us conservatives are not going to put up with him. Palin is the only ONE in Gov't with a plan and a brain both together. She will be Obamas biggest headache when she starts talking.

Palin is a dumb insane fool all you repugs out there have nothing better to offer but a toltal milf

How cute - those who support Palin, also believe in vampires. Can you people please move to Russia?

Sarahsupporterssuk of WA 3:16PM July 28, 2009

When the Bill Mahers of this country wake up and smell the coffee, it will be too late. Palin will be president and liberals will be in hell, gnashing their teeth and whining again about how government doesn't change their diapers, wipe their butts and pay their mortgages.

What a shame it will be when all the stupid people have their country back and can live free again.

That's really what it's all about. Liberals don't want people to be free. They're afraid the stupid might actually do something productive with their lives.

That, more than anything, presents an existential threat to Statist liberalism.

Anyone who doesn't agree with a Statist liberal is stupid.

I hope we all get stupid some day.
