Anyone who reads her comments as backing Beck for her running mate has serious reading comprehension problems.

She didn't deny it. What's she hiding? Hey were just asking questions here.

Why should she deny it when she said she was no where's near making a decision on running herself ? I linked to the Newsmax blurb and that offers no additional insight . So all that is here is incomplete half sentences pieced together, without proper context, to concoct a fill in article .

It's opinion tom. Just like Hotair or Michelle Malkin.

But she did say:

"I can envision a couple of different combinations, if ever I were to be in a position to really even seriously consider running for anything in the future, and I'm not there yet," Palin tells Newsmax. "But Glenn Beck I have great respect for. He's a hoot. He gets his message across in such a clever way. And he's so bold — I have to respect that. He calls it like he sees it, and he's very, very, very effective."

I didn't quite get how she (http://www.newsmax.com/insidecover/palin_beck_2012_ticket/2009/11/17/287568.html) "floated the idea." Seems folks are reading things into it that aren't there. But what is this Palin obsession of yours?

Anyway a Palin/Beck ticket would be great woudn't it? A couple of straight shooters!

Today it's more about the power they're attempting to wield over our lives, back then it was about what a$$es they were being.

Not going to happen. What bothers the left about both of them is the successes they've had, hence the need to destroy them.

Thanks Speech. Keep drinking the kool-aid.

So let me get this straight...

Palin gets asked a joking question in an interview, answers it with another joke and a compliment for Beck, and you and that blog you cited take that to mean that she wants him as a running mate.

Am I interpreting your post correctly?

Is there a reason that anyone should take anything you post about Palin seriously anymore?

What Kool-aid? I'm not calling for Palin to run for president and I just told ex yesterday I've never watched Glenn Beck. Try to pay attention.


BTW what are Palin's successes again? And Beck's for that matter.

Tom covered Palin sufficiently in the other thread, but I'll add this from her Grand Rapids book signing:


Wednesday's predawn darkness: (http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20091118/NEWS06/91118012/1319/Hundreds-line-up-for-Palin-in-Grand-Rapids&template=fullarticle) | It was 4:55 when the first cheer went up.

“Sarah! Sarah! Sarah!”

And that’s 4:55 this morning, when the thermometer had dipped into the 30s. But the 500 or so people in line didn’t mind the sleepless night or the cold.

“What she represents is what we’re standing in line for,” said Robin Case, 44, of Traverse City, who set up a chair and sleeping bag at 9 p.m. Tuesday to make sure she got the chance to meet Palin, former Alaska governor and vice presidential candidate. “She’s real, and she’s standing up for what we believe in.”

Palin was scheduled to begin her “Going Rogue” book tour at the Barnes & Noble Booksellers in suburban Grand Rapids.

By 7 a.m., the line had swelled to more than 1,500 people as Barnes & Noble employees wrapped orange wristbands around Palin fans' wrists.

She's pulling in bigger crowds than Obama (http://www.julescrittenden.com/2009/10/24/maybe-we-cant/).

As for Beck, here's a sample, Glenn Beck Gets First Scalp: Van Jones Resigns (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/09/06/glenn-beck-gets-first-sca_n_278281.html). Oh, and I'm sure Olby is envious of Beck's ratings.

Next?

You mean aside from cutting government spending to balance the Alaska state budget? How about setting up one of the smoothest energy deals in history to make the people of her state wealthier? How about her time as the Chairwoman of the Alaska Oil & Gas Conservation Commission? How about killing the bridge to nowhere? Any one of these would be considered a major accomplishment in the career of any other politician, much less ALL of them.

But not Palin, right? She's a dumb bimbo, right?

Well go ahead, misunderestimate her. It would be far better to have a president that has actually accomplished something in office for her constituents and uses terms like "bass-ackwards" and "a hoot" than an amateur that can talk an eloquent but empty game.

Maybe because it's a hoax (http://urbanlegends.about.com/b/2009/09/03/internet-hoax-says-glenn-beck-raped-murdered-young-girl-in-1990.htm).

By the way, here's something I bet you guys didn't know about Beck.

To find right PR guru, Beck looked to his left (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/10/27/AR2009102704010.html)

I could careless who Glenn Beck pays for PR and what side of the isle they are on. Cause lets be honest PR is just about money.

What I care about is that girl in AZ If he didn't do it why doesn't he say he didn't do it he is hiding something. He has gone to great lengths not to bring this up. If he didn't do it he should just say he didn't do it. By him ignoring it, it just makes him look more guilty. So what is he hiding? I'm just asking questions.

But we can't help but wonder, since he has failed to deny these horrible allegations. Why won't he deny that he raped and killed a young girl in 1990?

We do know it is fake it is just funny. I know you guys probably don't watch South Park but you have to see the episode that was on a few weeks ago called "dances with smurfs" the one kid gets to do the morning announcements at school and basically turns the morning announcements into the Glenn Beck show it is so funny!! If you go to South Park Studios (http://www.southparkstudios.com/) it is episode 1313 it is to funny.

I offered trades and no one bit. Oh well . From my shallow perspective I want the Fins to beat the Panthers because Williams is the only back left on the squad and because the Panthers could conceivably compete with the Giants for a play off spot .
