Sarah Palin responding to French President Nicolas Sarkozy.

Hilarious!!

She thought he was hitting on her!!

"Kill two birds with one stone!!" Sarah Palin giggled.

Hinting at some other activities other than hunting?

Shows her true instincts as a former beauty queen!

LOL

[smurfcrusher]

Palin is such a bubblehead. See how she was punk''d by a Canadian comedian who made a prank call as the French president. He gave her all kinds of clues that it was a prank, but she caught NONE of them!!

I just have to laugh at the fear, hand wringing, and utter desperation of the Rep sheeple drones.

I think most of them are suffering from

"Beaten Dog Syndrome,"

having been stomped on, abused, and lied to for so long by their criminal leaders,

that they no longer expect, wish, hope for, nor desire better.

What a pathetic bunch of losers.

Oh yes My Precious, Gollum, Gollum.

Even now, in the midst of an economic downturn and another war against unrestrained evil, America prospers. It is a prosperity often built on trial-and-error, triumph and, yes, even failure. But above all, it is a prosperity built on goodness and optimism.
Are Americans still optimists at heart? It is hard to say. The never-ending hand-wringing emanating from academia, the media, the entertainment industry and the Democratic Party has taken its toll. The left has made a massive investment in promoting the idea that our country is in dire need of redemption which only they have the %u201Cwisdom%u201D to administer.
In a better world, such self-inflation of one%u2019s abilities to transform an entire society would be recognized as the arrogance it truly is. Even more so for the consolidation of power by self-righteous elitists that would be necessary to pull it off. Hopefully, despite decades of woeful public schooling, most Americans still have to be coerced into accepting the idea that America, on balance, is a deficient nation.
Sadly, it%u2019s probably a close call. If it weren%u2019t, Barack Obama and company wouldn%u2019t stand a chance in November.

To be fair, many Americans believe the country is headed in the %u201Cwrong direction.%u201D But there is a difference between believing America is %u201Coff course%u201D and believing it is headed over the abyss. And make no mistake: much of that %u201Cwrong direction%u201D is the cultural rot of moral relativity, multiculturalism, and PC hyper-sensitivity directly attributable to liberalism.
No country is, or ever has been, perfect. If America has fallen short of many peoples%u2019 expectations, maybe it should dawn on them that it might be because no other country in the world has set the bar as high as we have.
Yet for most liberals, all the good we do in the world is never enough. Any shortcoming is evidence of wholesale failure, of a need to completely re-order the American landscape. Such unrestrained pessimism is both unrealistic and unseemly. It is the whine of spoiled children who can%u2019t seem to remember that half the world struggles to survive , not prosper.

[janesche]

Barack Obama%u2019s campaign is based on this premise: %u201CI am absolutely certain that generations from now, we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal. This was the time when we came together to remake this great nation%u201D
Have we never cared for the sick or jobless? Trillions of dollars of wealth transfer for health entitlements, Social Security, job-training and unemployment insurance suggest otherwise. This (is) was the moment? Over the course of almost three hundred years, hundreds of thousands of American troops have paid the ultimate price to %u201Cheal%u201D the planet of sicknesses far more deadly and self-evident than global warming. This was (is) the time we came together? No other nation on earth comes close to matching our historical legacy of assimilation, uniting against a common enemy, righting historical wrongs or creating equal opportunity for all.

[janesche]

Thus, for example, it doesn%u2019t matter that we ended slavery, it only matters that we had it. It doesn%u2019t matter that we%u2019ve produced the highest standard of living in the world, it only matters that we haven%u2019t eliminated poverty completely. It doesn%u2019t matter we%u2019ve assimilated more immigrants than any other country in the world, it only matters that we want to deport %u201Cundocumented workers.%u201D And so on and so forth.
This %u201Cthe perfect is the enemy of the good%u201D attitude has been politically nurtured by the American Left. Without it, imposing their particular version of %u201Cperfection,%u201D aka big-government socialism, becomes impossible. With it, a country far too %u201Cimperfect%u201D to be left to its own individualist, free-market, personally responsible devices can be brought to heel.
Today%u2019s liberalism is not about selling reasoned or sensible change for a country that needs %u201Ctweaking.%u201D It is about selling the hysteria that we are a nation in need of an %u201CExtreme Makeover.%u201D

[janesche]

Is the United States a perfect country? Nope. Is it the best country in the world? To a large degree, the 2008 election may be a referendum on that question.
In my lifetime, there has never been a shortage of Americans more than willing to believe that our nation is tawdry collection of small-minded people ,imperialists, racists, homophobes, sexists, xenophobes, evil rich, etc., etc. , whose devotion to the principles espoused by our Founding Fathers , those slave owning, dead white European males , amounts to little more than lip service.
For them, patriotism is an admixture of jingoism, naivete%u2019 and illusion. All war is a business opportunity. Religion is a repository of prejudice and fear. History is a systematic whitewash of our genocidal exploitation of an above-reproach indigenous culture. In short, we%u2019re a hopeless, hapless mess of a nation.
While such simplistic notions always have a kernel of truth in them, the driving force behind them all is the same: a lack of perfection equals total failure.
