To paraphrase a quote from my favorite modern philosopher Forest Gump, George Bush and Sarah Palin go together like peas and carrots. In fact she seems to be the mirror image of George Bush, when he ran for President in 2000. For example:
On September 5th during a rally in Michigan, Sarah Palin said, “We put the government of our state back on the side of the people.”
Well on November 3, 2000, during a rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan, George Bush said his campaign “stands squarely on the side of the people.”
Want another one?
During a rally in Missouri on September 8th, Sarah Palin said, “I reminded people that government is not always the answer. In fact, too often, government is often the problem.”
And on September 16, 2000, George Bush said, “I do not believe government is the enemy, but I do not believe government is always the answer.”
Of course, both tout their tax cuts for the rich inside a populist message:
During that same rally in Missouri, Sarah Palin said, “I’m returning a chunk of that surplus straight back to the people because they can spend it better than government can spend it.”
And in 2000 during a Presidential debate, Bush said, “I want to send one-quarter of the surplus back to the people who pay the bills. I want everybody who pays taxes to have their tax rates cut.”
John McCain knew exactly what he was doing when he choose Sarah Palin. He wanted someone just like him – and just like Bush.

TIE PALIN and McGIGGOLO to BUSH ECONOMY
McDummy voted with Bush 95%
Reagan also said government is the problem too.
Has anyone in the republic party matured since 1988 or are they all living in a time warp?
I read somewhere on the toobz that McCain was a POW. Is it true?
you forgot a big one ari, bush couldn’t name a paper he reads and neither could palin
((((sadly)))) how are you?
one of the democratic mantras needs to be;
“you have to be a masochist to elect a person to government who believes government is the problem, they will make certain their point becomes reality”
W doesn’t read papers… he has his staff tell him the news… he says that’s more objective.
These are anti intellectual, incurious ideologs – END OF STORY.
Oooooo, good one, Perris.
nervous
I hadn’t heard that one yet. Anyone know?
EXCLUSIVE VIDEO OF SRAH PALIN’S DEBATE PREP!
Palin wins in a walk.
MSM eats … crow sandwich.
Forrest Gump:
don’t be nervous. neither you nor I have any control over what will occur during this debate. All we can do is send positive energy to Biden and , in my case, play palin bingo *g*
ok, to be posted again and again, you got this from me first ari;
right now, on raw story, they have documented that the fbi is refusing to allow agents that want to tell how they were prevented from preventing 9/11;
raw story links to this page;
and it’s an interesting read
not this time and not if she’s chewing gum
here’s the lead paragraph, I have donned my tin foil wardrobe…the hat alone is not enough
Forrest Gump promotes a deeply offensive model of being: because life is often random, there’s no point in trying to do anything.
I happen to think palin can do very nicely in this format, biden has his hands tied which is a bad thing for his style, palin has her hands tied which is the only strategy they should use from now until election day
it is random….but we can help things along imo
I believe there is speculation that if we were given the first few facts before the big bang, we could predict each and every event that unfolds, where the wind will blow, which leaf will fall down, how many tears you will cry
I have to say I do not subscribe to this theory, if true then we are all innocent…I cannot believe bush/cheney are innocent
Ari,
the similarity that has driven me most crazy since she first opened that pie hole in Ohio -
people fall all over themselves, fawning wildly over her self confidence, confusing it with competence – urrrrr
wanna put her back on her HEELS
ask her what she thinks of the Bush Economy
and that her running mate voted ALMOST 100% of the time
gotta love this over at think progress right now;
I REGRET TO INFORM YOU,THERE IS YET another thread
No same talking point over and over and over again.
did you say leaf ?
lol sadly!
Let’s Go Play Palin Bingo!
I think it will be a tough debate.
Palin is a natural.
Let’s hope the court jesters don’t F-it-U.
I saw it from a different perspective … always be your best and things will go your way more often than not … contrary to the “micro- manage your life” mantra of Tony Robbins and his ilk …
In Matrix there’s a scene where Morphius mentions that to Mr. Anderson and Anderson says he prefers to believe in ‘free will’. I associate myself with that position (as they say in Congress).
Free will ties into the idea of reincarnation
