Teabaggers Upset With Palin

.

Wingnuts are unhappy with Palin.

…when Palin announced last week that she would campaign for McCain in his reelection primary battle against ultra-conservative former congressman J.D. Hayworth, some of her most vocal supporters were outraged that she would endorse McCain, who they see as a Republican in Name Only (RINO).

Fox News contributor Michelle Malkin wrote on her blog that “Tea Party activists are rightly outraged by Sarah Palin’s decision to campaign for McCain, whose entrenched incumbency and progressive views are anathema to the movement.”

On his radio show yesterday, Fox News host Glenn Beck told a caller upset by Palin’s move that “This Sarah Palin thing really bothers me.” “I am absolutely no fan of John McCain,” Beck said. “I want to have another sit down with her. How does she believe he is a good man when everyone in his organization trashed her?”

People just don’t seem to get Palin.  They’re failing to understand that she has no convictions. She’s not really interested in much of anything except promoting the Palin Corporation. Health care, the environment, fiscal policies, terrorism, foreign policy, bank bailouts, John McCain, teabaggers, conservatism…if anyone believes that Palin spends any serious time pondering any of these, they’re either delusional or just haven’t been paying attention.

She doesn’t care. She has no real knowledge or understanding of any of the major issues and that is plenty fine with her.  What she does understand is that there are enough simpletons out there to keep her gig at Fox going, to buy her books and to pay out $250 to hear her blabber on matters she is clueless about. And in the shallow world of Sarah Palin, that is all that truly matters.

    She got what she wanted out of McCain – fame. Now she has to back him because, despite his staff trashing her, she doesn’t want him to join in on it.

  2. Frances says:

    Only Michelle Malkin would think that McCain is progressive.

    The Quitter Ex Governor will say anything for $$$. A true Grifter at heart. I read that a new “right to life” fundraiser in Ohio coming up she will be charging $1000 per person for people to hear a ranting talking points/index card speech and possibly get a picture.

    Her request of over $100,000 speaking fee at the Teabaggers Ball in a couple of weeks has led people to complain and ask for their money back.

    Please make sure you follow-up this story with the filings of her Sarah(Mac)PAC and if she is truly donating money to Righties…or if she’s keeping it all for herself and her Grifter Family.

    McCain has some REAL dirt on her. It’s the ONLY reason she is campaigning for him. I love to see her flip flop like an Alaskan Salmon grasping for air to live on the muddy Wasilla shores!

    Well done Mario – priceless!

  5. MO Inkslinger says:

    Palin will do anything for $$$ and media attention. In her book, there is no such thing as bad publicity…all publicity is good for her and her bank account.

  6. Berta says:

    How can some people look up to this woman?

    Absolutely loved your post! I appreciate insightful analysis from those looking in, it’s spot on! I hope you don’t mind that I re-posted it on my blog…. I’m a Conservative Alaskan blogger who has been very vocal about the fraud known as Sarah ‘whackjob’ Palin.. I was referenced in many publications as well as the New York Times http://www.nytimes.com/2008/09/14/us/politics/14palin.html

    Granny ‘Show Me The Money’ Palin is going to kiss McCain arse. She has a lot to hid and McCain and his staff did a lot of scrubbing of those computers in Alaska. Granny sold herself to the devil and she can’t back away. Levi was right when he said, she quit for the money.

  9. puffkitty says:

    Check out the website “Prolife Profiles” (dot com). It matches up the words vs. deeds of the politicians claiming to fight the prolife battle, providing documentation.

    Mrs. Palin’s on Tier 4, the page of big, fat liars. She hasn’t “chosen life” like all her deluded supporters think she has.

    Quite a little eye-opener.

    Oh, and Mario, love the pic of the pulpster and you are most accurate in your description of her! (She managed to drive me out of the Republican party; no room for hate speech in my life and moderates aren’t welcome there anymore anyway!)
