Conservative PAC Thankful For Sarah Palin

The campaign might be over but the television ads go on. Our Country Deserves Better, a conservative political action committee, will begin running ads in Alaska and on national television this week honoring Gov. Sarah Palin. Timed for Thanksgiving, the ads (there are two 60-second versions and two 30-second ones) features the PAC’s officials thanking Palin for her candidacy.

“Governor Palin inspired millions of Americans by fighting for common sense conservative principles in a positive and uplifting manner,” said Sal Russo, chief strategist of the PAC in a release announcing the ads. “I worked with President Ronald Reagan since his first days in the California Governor’s Office, and I can tell you that I see so many similarities between President Reagan and Governor Palin. Palin inspires such passion among Americans because she speaks to them in a straightforward and sincere way without the parsed statements and duplicity of typical Washington insiders and bureaucrats.”

You can see all the versions here or watch the 60-second Thanksgiving version below:

If the GOP wants to regain the respect and votes of the American voters there is only one thing they have to do...RETURN TO REALITY!

What an absolute joke and desperate effort to keep this woman''s name reverberating in people''s minds. Alone, Sarah Palin did not run FOR anything...she ran WITH John McCain. This is an insult to him in so many ways that it baffles logic how GOP conservatives can''t see that. It makes me that much prouder to be a member of the liberal intelligencia of this nation that I and many others won''t fall for such stupidity. Looks like I won''t be turning my television on Thanksgiving Day because I''ll be darned if I''m gonna let that woman''s memory taint an otherwise great meal and time with my family. I have to admit that it would be funny if her ads was aired in conjunction with an ad for acid reflux.

Now lets be fair...do you know how many people an elephant carcas can feed...and there are a lot of them.

And to show her patriotism, Sarah will no doubt graciously volunteer to field dress all of those carcasses! She''s real handy that way!

Wild!

The ad thanks her for her ARTICULATE advocacy. Is this for real? I am shaking my head in absolute disbelief. Palin in incapable of competent conversation. I shudder to think what could happen if she actually did have to communicate with foreign dignitaries. In addition to this.....she perpetuates and/or inflames hateful misconceptions. Her ego has such an enormous appetite that she revils in the limelight whether it is in the form of being the butt of a joke, SNL appearance is a perfect example, to appearing in front of a turkey getting it''s head chopped off.

It''s sure going to be boring in a few months when the dems don''t have Sarah, John and George to kick around. All that will be left is the big O and they will have to be quiet as he falls on his behind.

Pick on her while you can, your crude remarks may be republished when reality sets in.

Who''s picking on her? She seeks out attention.......and then blames everyone else for seeing her as she is, not as what she thinks she is.

Geeze! From the tone of these arguments you would think the Conservatives (or are they just the nuts that fell off the Republican tree?) still think the election is going on.

Don''t pull together, pull apart! That''s there apparent motto.

These are the types that fought against independence from England during the revolutionary war.

Sad sacks, whiners, crybabies. Get off your arses and start pulling this country together. Bush did enough to tear it apart to last a generation. Oh, wait a minute... that''s probably how long it will be before a Republican sits in the White House again.....

The idea of this half-wit as a "leader" with any governmental power at all is enough to make one sick.

This ad campaign serves to illustrate that the GOP is no longer run by thoughtful true conservatives. It is run by the wacky loons of the far theological right and their neocon lap dogs. They both deserve the pathetic anonymity of history that they will surely soon enjoy.

I have some bad news for you: Alaska Governor Sarah Palin%u2019s aerial killing frenzy has begun.

Already, the slaughter has claimed the lives of 19 wolves -- more than in any November in the last 5 years. But there is something you can do to help.

Please help us save wolves%u2019 lives by becoming a Wildlife Guardian with your small monthly donation. Your dependable support will be critical to our success in defeating Palin%u2019s terrible program.

Gov. Sarah Palin proudly champions this deadly wolf killing program as %u201Cone of those last-resort things.%u201D But Alaska%u2019s aerial killing program has claimed the lives of more than 800 wolves -- including 14 helpless pups ruthlessly killed earlier this year -- and with 19 more wolves killed already, this season could see a record slaughter of hundreds more.

You should know that this is the same woman who loves killing: As a child she plucked the wings from butterflies, killed frogs by pulling them apart with her bare hands, shot baby bears, wolves, anything the was alive she wanted dead.

So much for the sanctity of life.

Are the Right Wing nuts not reading the news? (much like Bush and Palin).

"common sense conservative principles" are what got us in this mess in the first place. The uneducated really stand out as the Republican base and it''s scary to see just how bad our education system has failed this country.

IDIOT where have you had your head for the last few months. She happens to be the Governor of Alaska the largest state in the Union, she was also the Mayor of a City and is the head of the Alaskan National Guard. Why don''''t you head out so the sun can shine on it and look at Obamas qualifications.
Posted by d7767w at 02:25 PM :

So Wasilla is the meth capital of Alaska AND headquarters for the Alaskan National Guard? Any connection?

I honestly think that all the folks voted for Obama should thank Sarah as well! Without her on Mr. McCain''s ticket, this past election result could be different. So let''s all get together and sincerely give Sarah the expression for our gratitude - WINK WINK!

Gov Palin is a classy woman and I am so excited for her and her future endeavors.

Obama has his hands full, but looks like he has a cabinet that can do the job for him and he won''t have to worry.
Said he was for the little people and put his girls in a private quaker school, over 24,000 a year,,,,now that is showing the little people.......

Finally John McCain and Sarah Palin have something in common.

They are both being honored by the GOP for not winning the war but rather for being shot down.

All of you pro Sarah Palin fans, answer this: Are you pro-GOP or pro-Sarah Palin?

You can''t be both. Mrs. Palin is a flash in the pan, and you''re best off to let her fade away as quickly and peacfully as possible.

The "Religous Right" is attempting to make Sarah Palin bigger than life -- the same way they did with Jesus, Mary, Moses, and Noah. The problem is, SARAH PALIN IS STILL ALIVE. People can go check up on her to see if she really is walking on water, giving birth to imaculately conceived babies, talking to God on a hilltop, or loading animals from all over the world on a tiny little ark. It''s a lot easier to say "this person''s dead, but you can believe what I''m telling you because it''s written in a holy scripture!" You''ll need to wait until Sarah Palin is no longer around to check up on before you can build her up like that!

Weeks after the election, the neocon Fascist Nazi GOP thru a neocon "swift boat" group is STILL trying to find a "silver lining" in its defeat of Nov. 4th, by praising Sarah "Shoppergate" Palin for giving them hope and inspiration.

Stangely enough, there were no kind words for John McBush McCain!

It must be remembered that it was Palin who incited loyal neocons into a near frenzy of hate against anything and anyone who didn''t think as they did!

It was also Palin, whose lapses of geography, reading materials, and sometimes absurd babblings, placed her on a par with the Great Emperor Bush II in regards to intelligence!

Still, Palin continues to "bless" the world with her continued presence either in her kitchen frying fresh "moose-burgers", or delivering a press conference in a hatchery as turkeys get their heads lopped off!

SIG HEIL, I ALWAYS KNEW SHE HAD A FUTURE!!!, BUSH!!!

Yes, thank you, Governor Palin.

Because of your candidacy, America voted for a liberal Democrat to change America for the better and get us out of the mess your political party put us in.

All because of you, girl!
