“So Sambo beat the bitch!”
This is how Republican Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin described Barack Obama’s win over Hillary Clinton to political colleagues in a restaurant a few days after Obama locked up the Democratic Party presidential nomination.))
Very becoming racist slurs and description of women. And apparently she didn't care who heard her either, per the article. -

I think it's funny reading comments from uneducated dems! All you hear is neocon this and that. They all read from the same play book. The Dem party has no platform or substance! All they have is a slogan. "Change". Obama isn't about change. If he was he wouldn't have picked a fossil like Biden. Higher taxes, bigger government and a weak country. There's your change. Question: When Obama taxes the big evil oil companies for making too much money, Who do you think is going to pay that tax?

“All they have is a slogan. "Change".”

Yup, that was their slogan, that is until the coprolite candidate McCain and his running mate Palin, the Walmart Joan of Arch, decided they liked the sound of it.
McCain hasn’t had an original thought in decades. Prior to hearing Obama talk about the need for change, the only change he ever thought about was getting out of his soiled Depends. -

Your comment is funny and uneducated. What do you think the republicans have done the past 8 years? They have been for "Change" and they have made drastic changes. What have they changed? The economy has been the worst since the depression, unemployment is at an all-time high with 84,000 jobs lost this past month; The oil company profits have gone from a mere 5 billion in 2001 to an all-time high of 40 to 50 billion in 2007; and as for Biden being a fossil, what do you think Saddle Bags McCain is - old as dirt, which outdates fossils. Whether McCain or Obama get into the whitehouse, there will be taxes, face that reality and q

I can't believe how natural it comes to you to be mean & looking down on everyone in order to feel special! Every opinion deserve and given equal respect & OPORTUNITY here. Let me give you my educated opinion; With Biden & Obama's so called "Doughnut hole" tax break all those moms & pops, family legacy, individual, middle or small size businesses, people who like to start their own business and become their own boss will finally have a realistic chance to make it. We will be taxed (relatively) very little to nothing granting our businesses some competitive advantage. Biden & Obama will subsidise Americans instead of those cartels you mentioned who control Rep. party.

If democrats are fiscally irresponsible how is it the economy grows under their adminstrations far more than republican ones? Why is it Reagan spent more than the combined presidents before him? Who pays for his deficits if not taxpayers? Who pays the incalculable cost of Bush's budget? Not taxpayers? Hmmm. These republicans charged up an unprecedented fortune on the nation's credit card- but somehow it's democratic administration's fault? Actually the only balanced budget ever submitted in 60 years was a Democrat's. The only SUPLUS ever was from a Democrat. The tax and spend phrase sounds good, but it's BS.
The Republicans are not fiscally responsible, their record speaks for itself.
They run up the bills and leave someone else to figure out how to pay for it.
They don't mind hundreds of trillions of Dollars going to death and destruction in
a country they invaded by mistake (God told 'em to do it- dog named Sam told 'em to do it) but spend a dime on a starving kid or investing in our own future and they scream bloody murder! Exxon alone made more money in the last quarter than many nation's gnps in a year. They don't need welfare from the government!
Or from me. Henry Ford understood that if he didn't pay his workers a decent wage they couldn't afford to buy his model T's. His contemporaries thought he was nuts.
Why pay these peons a decent wage, we can get away with far less...but Ford was right- he did far better for himself while also doing well by other people. You know that is the missing part of the "new globalist slavery" -no partnerships no deal with labor to be fair. What happens when the entire US middle class can't afford your inflatable coolers and cheap beads? Sell them to China? Nicaragua?
I doubt they will be interested.
Your economic views may have applied 70 years ago but FDR isn't president and hasn't been for some time. But we sure could use his sense of responsibility right now.

This reflects poorly on those who choose to support her. Not to mention the poor decision making displayed by McSame. This trickster has no morals.
Trick or treat! -

Palin will fit right in with the rest of the neocons. She is allowing a massacre of wolves and their pups, and she thinks God wanted us to go to Iraq. She and McCain want to overthrow Roe vs. Wade, so women will have to resort to back alley abortions again. No matter what anyone thinks, and I don't support abortion as a method of birth control , women will get pregnant, and not want the baby. Those two will move this country backwards, not forward, and individual freedom will start to disappear.

We have two more months to put this contemptible person under the microscope. Hopefully a few Alaskans will actually have the guts to give their names and publicly denounce her. I believe every word in the article but until we see better documentation it has little value.

I applaud Palin for jumping in over her head. What she doesn't realize is she jumped in a hole of snakes with no way out. There is no shelter for her now as she had in Alaska. With little to no experience with heavy hitters, I wonder how she will fare over the next 2 months.

ISN'T IT TIME FOR THE LUV GOV FOR VP: 1) CREATIONISM IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS; 2) ABSTINENCE ONLY EXCEPT FOR PALIN FAMILY WHETHER IT WORKS OR NOT; 3) BAN ROE v WADE AND PROSECUTE A WOMAN FOR HER RIGHT TO CHOOSE; 4) BAN BOOKS BY PLANNED PARENTHOOD; 5) DRILL,DRILL, DRILL....and I mean for oil offshore, onshore and in Iraq, Iran and Venezuela so we never get hybrids and electric and solar alternatives but keep wasting BILLIONS on enemies; 6) I'm cuter then Joe Biden so vote for ME.

I'm getting to the point that I don't really want to read much about this anymore because the more I read, the sicker I feel about the prospect that we could be saddled with four more years of the same (or maybe even worse). To think someone like this could actually become president by default is beyond sickening, its downright frightening...

Talk about America being at a tipping point of getting back on track now or risk never finding our way back......we're there and this nomination seems to prove it. -

I have never seen such attack on a person by all reporters from so called main media and Democrats as long as I have been living. Palin has taken it in stride and I applaud her - I also think that feminists are who I always thaught they were , they finally proved that they are a mouth piece for radical left.

I have to remind you folks that this country is still conservative on many issues and most likely this media blitz on Palin will translate into votes for Republicans in November.
Keep on bashing Palin.........-

I wouldn't trust Charley to have not made the whole story up about Sambo. I am glad to see Lucille is alive and well and taking care of business.

**** and Sharon call themselves "progressive activists" which sounds like a "positive view to the future" maybe: or a "high road" approach to discovery about the potential of their candidate.

How about "regressive mud slingers" or "Dirt merchants" or "drivel activists", scum buckets.
"Alaskans speak in a "frightened" manner.
WOW! Alaskans don't speak in a frightened manner, **** and Sharon.
