Category: Sarah Palin

Let’s see if I can come up with an understanding of leftist reasoning…

Nobody is better than Obama!
Palin is nobody.
Therefore… Palin is better than Obama?

Oops.

*heh*

(OK, OK, so it’s an equivocation, but it’s still sounder reasoning than anything I’ve heard from lefties recently on the subject, even though it does include the “Palin is nobody” falsehood. And at least I constructed it knowing it was based on a fallacy, and I admitted it, two steps better what’s been bruited about by lefties running scared.)

No, this blog has not become a single-issue blog for Sarah Palin, but…

If Margaret Thatcher, Ronald Reagan, Golda Meir and Winston Churchill had been easier on the eyes…

*heh*

Yeh, easy on the eyes makes it easier to pay attention. She’s not just another bland (yeh, even The Obamassiah’s bland by comparison) artificial political construct.

And then there’s her voice. While Ye Olde Voice Coache *heh* in me would like to have a couple of months to work with her voice (which sounds like a nice basic instrument), another part of me, the part that hears my wife’s “north country” relatives’ vowels and is comforted thereby, just relaxes and smiles at hearing a genuine voice, untainted by East and Left coast mass media manufactured diction.

And then, easy on the eyes face, comforting to the ears/soul voice making it easier to hear the smart and true and telling words she utters: very powerful. (Simply making paying attention easier is a powerful, powerful tool for political persuasion.)

Couple that with a record that is a compelling testimony to good works–and yes, I have read her detractors, and frankly, so far, all the shrill and angry voices serve as an endorsement of Palin; one can tell a lot about a person by looking at who chooses to be their enemy, you know–and the Palin addition to the ticket truly validates Bill Dyer’s campaign slogan for the McCain/Palin ticket:

I look forward to 2012 and 2016–or even 2016 and 2020, should I make it that far–*heh*–when we might anticipate a Palin/Jindal ticket to vote for…

🙂

Oops. I can’t recall where I first heard of this Greta van Susteren segment doing remote interviews of three (representative? Probably, since last week her approval rating was above 80% with Alaskans–down only a few percentage points since early in her term) Alaskans who purport to know Sarah Palin well, but whoever tipped me to it, thanks!

Of course, there are some with sour grapes: the librarian from Palin’s first term as Mayor of Wasilla who vents a lot of spleen whnever Palin’s name comes up; her scumbag former brother-in-law; some loser she pounded into the pavement in the governor’s race (I think he got about 10% of the vote), etc. All to be expected. Heck, George Washington (not that I’m saying Palin’s a Washington–I’m not) had his detractors in his day, eh? Most of ’em with about as much reason as Palin’s detractors, from all I can discover so far.
