Thrilla from Wasilla
Levi Johnston made an appearance on Bill Maher's show and it is worth watching. Towards the end of the six minutes that Johnston was on, Maher pointed out something very interesting. In an article for Vanity Fair, Levi Johnston said that Sarah Palin quit her job as governor of Alaska for the money. Meaning that she could make a boatload more money giving speeches, working for Fox News, and writing books. Well, it would appear that Levi's insight was "on the money". To the tune of some 12 million dollars, which is what Palin has raked in since then. And does she really deserve to be addressed as "Governor Palin"? She served less then 20 months of her first term before walking away from the job. Calling her"Governor" gives Palin an air of gravitas that is completely unsupported by the facts. She is a shallow mean-spirited person who wears her ignorance like a badge of honor. As the panelist on the show remarked "He (Levi) has more courage then most of the Republican Party". Meaning that he is not afraid to speak the truth about this woman...

Pot smoker Bill Maher? Levi Johnston? Good sources!
ReplyDeleteI guy has some bad things to say about his ex-girlfriend's family? Boy that is rare.
Maher agrees with someone who has negetive things about Sarah Palin?? Shocking!!
We can compare "quitters". President Obama did not complete his term as Senator. He abandoned those who elected him in IL, simply to get a better job. A higher paying job I might add (especially if you figure the book sales).
He might be the wealthiest "community organizer" in history.
Sarah Palin was forced from office from Democrats, in Alaska frivolous investigations and law suits are easily engaged. And they were costing her family and the state of Alaska millions with usual Democrat nonesense.
But that still does not explain why Obama QUIT his senate seat, before even serving one term.
The left bows to the Quitter in Chief, and then spends time and energy attacking the former Governor of the State of Alaska?
The Double Standard Party strikes again.
I suppose if you were to apply that standard, then your hero George W Bush "quit" as governor to become president. Sarah Palin walked away from the job that the people of Alaska elected her to, in order to do what? Become president? I suspect that is her ultimate goal. And if whatever problems she had up in Alaska were "frivolous", why not stay and fight? What is she going to do if she were to be elected president and then became the target of investigation? I think we already know the answer to that.
ReplyDeleteRupert Murdoch, a foreign national who only became a citizen so that he could circumvent our country's laws, is writing paychecks for several of the expected Republican presidential candidates. You rage about George Soros, but Murdoch buying candidates in American elections doesn't bother you in the least.
Talk about a double standard...
As someone who has been on the recieviing end of frivolous litigation, I can attest to the fact that if one stands up to such things, one ends up bankrupt.
ReplyDeleteWith regard to "quitting", I have no problem with it. If a better opportunitiy arises, then take it. I did not bring up the issue, I simply, in defending it, demonstrated that this is common practice in all walks of life. If it bothers the left so much, then they should look into the mirror.
Murdoch did not "circumvent" the law, he complied with it. People have all sorts of reasons for becoming US citizens, usually financially related.
I do not rage about Soros "buying" candidates, I believe in the first amendment and think he has every right to spend his money, however foolishly, as he chooses. What enrages me about Soros is his lack of a moral core, His funding political policies that are harmful to the US economy, but beneficial to his pocket-book. He dislike America and American values.
I am perfectly comfortable with citizens funding candidates and lobbying for legislation that one agrees with, or against that which one disagrees. This is supposed to be a free country, and having loads of money should not preclude one from exercizing his first amendment right, including Mr. Soros.
Exposing his and Murdoch's alliances is also a first amendment right. I see no problem with such openness.
