Sarah Palin: The Bait & Switch Candidate

September 8th, 2008 · 15 Comments · John McCain, Politics, Presidential Candidate, Sarah Palin

McCain’s veep choice is the reincarnation of George W. Bush, as channeled by Karl Rove.

Palin is a hoax and the biggest fraud perpetrated on the American people since the Republicans foisted Bush-Cheney and their oil-buddies in the mid-east, starting a war for oil, causing skyrocketing oil prices and a mortgage and economic mess beyond belief. Vote for McCain-Palin and you get what you deserve – a declining America that will be polishing the shoes of the Saudis and the Chinese. A McCain/Palin administration will make the Bush administration look like they were actually competent.

  • 1. Palin’s anti-abortion position is too extreme for America in that she opposes abortion even in cases of rape and incest and would FORCE this view on the rest of America.
  • 2. Palin and her husband flirted with succession from the United States as “affiliates” of AIP party.
  • 3. Palin attempts to ban library books she doesn’t like and fire the city librarian if she doesn’t go along.
  • 4. Palin fires police chief of Wassila because he wants the bars to close at 2am rather than 5am and this upset Palin’s bar owner campaign contributors.
  • 5. Palin fires her chief public safety officer, the former police chief of Anchorage, because he doesn’t want to be used in her family feud in firing the ex-husband of her sister.
  • 6. Palin’s car wash was “involuntarily” shut down after she skipped out of paying her taxes and fees, and failed to file required financial statements.
  • 7. Palin’s pastor of 30 years thinks political opponents of Bush won’t go to heaven and that Jesus is some kind of war general that kills people that don’t believe in him.
  • 8. Palin stripped funds from Passage House, a group that helps teen moms, LIKE HER DAUGHTER, get skills and lead productive lives after pregnancy.
  • 9. Palin hired an Abramoff lobbyist to get earmarks that even McCain objected to.
  • 10. Palin SUPPORTED Bridge-to-Nowhere, and only opposed it after public exposure.
  • 11. Palin inflates her foreign policy experience by claiming a refueling stop as a “visit to Ireland”.
  • 12. Now trying to block ethics investigation in Alaska that was approved by the Republican legislature.
  • 13. Has lied numerous times in speeches about selling state jet on ebay.
  • 14. Again lied in her speech when she said “I fought to bring about the largest private-sector infrastructure project in North American history. And when that deal was struck, we began a nearly forty billion dollar natural gas pipeline to help lead America to energy independence.” “Nothing could be further from the truth.”
  • 15. Palin has an environmental policy so toxic it would even make George Bush blush.
McCain stay the course of Bush

    I love it. Colbert and Stewart are just pitch perfect in the criticism of Palin. Obviously they are satirists but their commentary covers all the bases! Thanks for posting this.

    She cannot hide forever and when the debate between her and Biden occurs I predict we will see exactly how weak she is.

    Actually neither side is worth much, but I do think McCain’s pick was McBrilliant. Just saying. :)

  • feefifoto


    I cannot believe we are even having this conversation. After everything the Republicans have done to this country over the past eight years, how can they even show their faces in public?

    I love Jon Stewart.

    Just wanted to point out that had you used factcheck.org before you posted this – you would find that most of these MoveOn.org talking points have already been proven to be false. You’re just helping to spread the rumors which just continues to help the McCain camp and hurt Obama! Thank you! :^)

  • Speedy


    Prove it clownboy!!!

  • The BoBo


    Just like a liberal, Speedy – you want somebody to do the work for you and still get the benefits of it. Seriously, you know how to type in factcheck.org don’t ya? Go check it our yourself. Or, would you rather just continue living in ignorance and believe the lies that George Soros pushes down to the Obama sheeple like yourself?

  • Speedy


    Liberal? You say that like it’s a bad thing LOL The reality is we each have one vote and YOU have no idea how I’ll use mine. I, on the other hand know exactly what you plan on doing with yours. I can only hope you plan on watching the debates and perhaps you won’t waste your vote this time putting your family as well as mine in the hands of liars AGAIN!! As far as me asking you to substantiate your allegations you still haven’t, actually you can’t. Hmmmm maybe you should run for office. You’ve got that “not answering the question” thang down pretty well.

  • John


    If you believe that Colbert and Stewart are commentators to be listened to as either informative or entertaining, I feel sorry for you and this nation as a whole.

  • lvs


    Do you think Palin would make a good candidate in 2012? She may be more experienced and more mature by then.

  • Speedy


    Palin in 2012? Let’s plan to meet back here in four years and check out her progress. I’m guessing in less than 6 months McCain will have already apologized for that fiasco and anyone who even entertained the thought of Voting for her will have had time to question their own sanity.

  • Speedy


    Hmmmmm…. Palin who?????
