September 5, 200818 yr Aces/BF - here's the text of her speech. Tell me where I'm missing the specifics on the economy/healthcare/jobs/etc. http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/09/04/america/04palin-speech.php Asked and answered. I am not going to cut and paste excerpts that you should be able to ferret out for yourself.
September 5, 200818 yr Palin tied both the Republican's energy plan and Obama's proposed tax increases to their effect on the state of the economy. It may not be what you were looking for, but to say that Palin did not talk about the economy is wrong. Asked and answered. I am not going to cut and paste excerpts that you should be able to ferret out for yourself. That's your answer as to the specifics? I guess we have a different definition of the word.
September 5, 200818 yr That's your answer as to the specifics? I guess we have a different definition of the word.Yes, that is my answer and I guess we do.
September 5, 200818 yr I acknowledge and accept the politics of HOPE...not the politics of fear. The only reason you guys vote republican is because you bought into the fear factor. You're afraid they will take your guns. You're afraid they will raise your taxes. We attacked Iraq because you bought into the "We have to fight them there so we don't have to fight them over here. They don't have a Navy guys, by the time they swam here they would probably be too tired to fight. You're afraid they will close you're tax loopholes. You're afraid Adam and Steve will move in next door. You guys probably sleep with the night light on. LOL On your first two comments, you're confusing fear with with facts, understandable since your guy is a socialist and we believe in freedom. As for the rest, you sound like someone from Air America, I thought you could do better than that.On Iraq, is that the same reason your guy Biden signed onto Iraq? :lol:
September 5, 200818 yr Oh come on...that is a valid measure of "how bad"? Surely you don't acually believe that. Maybe the DNC did a better job of making sure that protesters didn't get in.This sort of thing happens all the time with the left, the protesters on that side always act up and get in trouble.
September 5, 200818 yr That's your answer as to the specifics? I guess we have a different definition of the word. What he meant was... it is not in there. :lol:
September 5, 200818 yr Aces/BF - here's the text of her speech. Tell me where I'm missing the specifics on the economy/healthcare/jobs/etc. http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/09/04/america/04palin-speech.php Why would she give specifics of McCain's policies? Her job was to introduce herself. Did Biden give specifics? Doubt it. Was it an issue with his speech on here? Doubt it.
September 5, 200818 yr I realize why the comments were made ... I still think such rhetoric was mocking and condescending and is beneath her. She has more to sell than just that crap. Palin was critizied by the Obama campaign for "Being the mayor of a town with 9000 people". I think her comments were justified and necessary. Now if she keeps making them then I will have to agree with you. But I think she needed to return fire to the Obama camp and she did that.
September 5, 200818 yr No question but its shocking that the video that's been seen by at least 2 of our own has not made it to the convention platform yet. What video are you talking about?
September 5, 200818 yr Why would she give specifics of McCain's policies? Her job was to introduce herself. Did Biden give specifics? Doubt it. Was it an issue with his speech on here? Doubt it. Like I said previously, 75, I agree. While I would have liked to hear them I understand her role. However, its been said on here by more than one person that she did, indeed, go into specifics. I pointed out that she had not.
September 5, 200818 yr Palin was critizied by the Obama campaign for "Being the mayor of a town with 9000 people".Yes, by a PR guy in the campaign. And I believe the candidates themselves expressed their regrets within hours. Heck, if Obama responded to every criticism of him, he wouldn't have time to do anything else.
September 5, 200818 yr Yes, by a PR guy in the campaign. And I believe the candidates themselves expressed their regrets within hours. Heck, if Obama responded to every criticism of him, he wouldn't have time to do anything else. Obama personally compared running a campaign to Palin's job as mayor. He compared the number of employees of Wasilla to his campaign staff and bragged about the campaign's budget. A PR guy may have repeated Obama's attempt to portray Palin as a small town mayor instead of as a governor, but you are mistaken if you do not believe that Obama took the lead on belittling her success. Either Obama's campaign is being run by a bunch of amateurs or he is ignoring good advice. The last thing that he should be doing is arguiing whether he is more experienced than Palin. Meanwhile, Joe Who? is being virtually ignored on the campaign trail. Obama's attack dog has been neutered by Palin's selection. :lol:

And you also know that Phil Gramm wasn't repeating Sen. Mcain when he made his that the nation (which I assume includes small towns in Alaska) has become a nation of whiners? Is it possible that your disdain for Sen. Obama causes you to lose perspective?
September 5, 200818 yr Is it possible that your disdain for Sen. Obama causes you to lose perspective?:lol:
September 5, 200818 yr Just saw Palin campaigning in Wisconson, with the exact same one liners from her Convention speech. Come on, someone please write some new material for her.
