Comments on: In Wisconsin, Palin takes on… https://thenewneo.com/2011/04/17/in-wisconsin-palin-takes-on/ A blog about political change, among other things Wed, 20 Apr 2011 17:27:15 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.1 By: Ymarsakar https://thenewneo.com/2011/04/17/in-wisconsin-palin-takes-on/#comment-241410 Wed, 20 Apr 2011 17:27:15 +0000 http://neoneocon.com/2011/04/17/in-wisconsin-palin-takes-on/#comment-241410 I do get reminded of how Southerners still hold grudges over X, Y, and Z happening to their great, great, grandparents.

Just like to point out that if it comes to that I will not be the one retreating. In true Palin fashion, I won’t be retreating… you fill in the rest.

The times are right for some “blood, sweat and tears” talk. That’s not so easy to pull off, particularly in this attention-deficient country, which is why we’re floundering about for a candidate to fall in love with. But the lady has guts and I like that.

Saw Atlas Shrugged yesterday and, though the theatre was only half full, (1230 matinee) there was applause at the end. (Amazing here in ultra- liberal Puget Sound.) I thoroughly enjoyed the story telling and the message. However, being Colorado born and raised, I really enjoyed all the gorgeous photography of the Colorado mountains. I wish we didn’t have to wait a year for part II.

I have mine and I’m sticking to them. 😉 I understand why some feel she can not win a national election and why others believe she can. As with anything in life much can happen along the way, and much can fall on Obama between now and 11/12. Timing and circumstances are important.

BTW, this is interesting:

Seriously, if it comes to that, this time the country is not going to fracture along simple geographical boundaries. It’s going to be a whole lot messier. Patriots and Communists are intermingled all over the country. Some of us in the Northeastern suburbs will find ourselves on the front lines.”

IF it comes to that, you are right about it being a whole lot messier in many areas, particularly the NE on through to the midwest east of the Big Muddy, and of course the Pacific coast.

rickl, IF it comes to that…. think about a line of retreat. I’ve been to Maine a couple of times and there are not big crowds its up near Quebec or better yet paddle to an island and put some lobster trap in the water. 😉

Seriously, take a look at Iowa, Nebraska, ND, SD, and the wonderful folks in WYO. Except for often bitter winters, we’re all great places to start up a business or if you’re ready to retire check us out. And, we produce plenty of the commodities everyone needs: grains and energy resources. Ahh, the joys of living in fly over country. 🙂

It’s not just about winning in 2012. The fight is never over. Never has been.

America has always been fighting and in this age when so much transformation is presenting, it’s hard to know exactly what is right. The fight is to establish for the next generation how to judge, and, in fact, that it is okay to judge.

As many entrepreneurs know, sometimes too much business is as fatal as not enough. We might face that in 2012 if we win the Presidency and the Senate. We should start thinking about that contingency and how to establish a focus and priority and not waste the opportunity. I think Sarah has that focus.

“He’s (meaning Obama) is willing to MORTGAGE our own children’s future for his own.”

I loved that one!

Sarah has a political genius.

That was such a totally bizarre post that I won’t even comment on it anymore than just to say that.
