Sarah Palin: Obama's Nobel Speech Echoed "Going Rogue"
(AP)
It may come as no surprise, then, that the president received praise for his speech from some Republican politicians and commentators -- including former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.
In fact, Palin told USA Today in an interview, Mr. Obama's speech echoed the thoughts she penned in her memoir, "Going Rogue."
"I liked what he said. In fact, I thumbed through my book quickly this morning, saying, 'Wow, that really sounded familiar,'" Palin said. "I talked in my book, too, about the fallen nature of man and why war is necessary at times, and history's lessons when it comes to knowing when it is when we engage in warfare."
She added, "A lot of Americans right now are getting to read my take on when war is necessary."
Palin's memoir has been extremely successful, proving that the former Alaska governor has tapped into the conservative anger that continues to be a problem for the current members of Congress, both Democrat and Republican.
Palin told USA Today that her political action committee SarahPAC will help candidates in next year's midterm elections who share "economically conservative principles" and her "commitment to win the war against terrorists" and who put ideology above party loyalty.
While she was happy with Mr. Obama's speech, Palin said the current president would benefit from taking more pages out of his predecessor's playbook.
"We've learned our lesson from 9/11. George Bush did a great job of reminding Americans every single day that he was in office what that lesson is," she said. "I would like to see President Obama follow more closely in the footsteps of George Bush and his passion for keeping the homeland safe his passion for respecting and honoring our troops."

The fact is that she has come up to be statistically even with Obama while Obama has the lowest approval rating of any President in history after 11 months in office.
Palin is right. Obama has confused and clueless. He is destroying the USA and all it stands for. The Russians and Iranians are playing him like a fiddle. He has broken every key election promise he made.
Now he is copying Palin and Bush in his speeches. Of course, he is merely reading it off the teleprompter. He probably hasn't a clue as to what it really means.

The Great Communicators of the:
20th Century - Ronald Reagan, 40th US President in 1980
21st Century - Mike Huckabee, 45th US President in 2012
Mike Huckabee's popularity continues to soar to record levels everyday. The last time America saw this "come back from behind win" was when the great Ronald Reagan finished 2nd in the 1976 Presidential Elections then to come back with such resounding strength to win in a landslide elections in 1980.

It's easy to continue trashing Sarah Palin for her viewpoints than it is to look rationally and objectively at the decisions Pres. Obama is making vs. his pre-election campaign rhetoric.

My God! This woman is actually dumber than I thought!
BTW, If Obama was quoting her book he wasn't quoting her but her ghostwriter because I doubt Palin even knows what's in her book. If she had known she wouldn't have had to "thumb through it".
