      @KillaFromWasilla — Why are you so filled with hatred?

      Re: Sarah Palin:
      (From Wikipedia) After graduating from high school, Palin enrolled at the University of Hawaii in Hilo. Shortly after arriving in Hawaii, Palin switched to Hawaii Pacific University for a semester in the fall of 1982. She attended North Idaho College for the spring and fall semesters of 1983. (In June 2008, the Alumni Association of North Idaho College gave her its Distinguished Alumni Achievement Award.)

      Re: Michele Bachmann:
      (From Wikipedia) Bachmann grew up in Anoka, graduating from Anoka High School in 1974. She graduated from Winona State University and later received her J.D. degree from Oral Roberts University and an LL.M. degree in tax law from the William & Mary Law School. She was a member of the final graduating class of Oral Roberts’ law school, and was part of a group of faculty, staff, and students who moved the ORU law school to what is now Regent University.

      Cuting to the chase: Just because you’d bet — just to be snotty, that doesn’t make it so. It just shows either your wishful thinking or your envy. Where did you graduate from high school, or did you?

      Please either post something intelligent or find yourself a liberal site where your catty remarks are APPRECIATED! Thank you.

The man will not even produce a birth certificte! When I applied for my job I had to have a notarized copy of mine.

The lady was probably picked by a ‘well-funded’ casting agency because she can read a cue card as well as Palin.

Maybe he should start covering news and stop bashing those that have opposite opinion. IMO they keep sucking Palin in, and Bachmann is a sitting Congresswoman she can talk anytime she want. No one said Palin is running for President and there is this thing called the 1st amendment allowing them to speak about anything they want.

      As for the reading you jerk I dont read any papers either I have this thing called the Internet where I can access news from all over the world, not some biased company like the NYT. Is this it is this the best Tingles has to go after these people?

      Mattews isn’t my favorite, but he’s right. Palin, Bachman and Gingrich are unelectable. The thought that they could be elected to be President only exists in the minds of a small fraction of Americans represented well by those who read and post here.

      For what it’s worth, I’m a liberal, and there is nothing more I’d like to see Palin (or Bachmann or Gingrich) become the Republican nominee. Because they’d get trounced.

      One reason: Gingrich can handle a interview besides the FOX softball stuff, maybe, but Palin and Bachmann could not. And nobody is getting elected to the Presidency by tweeting and without answering adversarial questions from the real media.

      Hey Chris

      We wonder why anyone would let you on the TV. You couldn’t make a well thought out and cogent argument if your life depended on it.

      Matthews is an idiot. Sputnik was part of the arms race. The space race was all about superiority in the skys above our heads. Get a clue you albino creep! He states about Amisted because he watched the movie. Does he not understand a persons regional dialect?

      It may be time to wash the feces off and get out of your mom’s basement. Put your tin foil hat away and get a little reality! You are like dog poop! Something that you scrape off your shoe that then dries up and blows away! Thanks for playing you disgusting little creep. Plus your mom wants her underwear back!

      He is so brainwashed and indoctrinated that he either never learned or forgot a long time ago that it is the people who are the boss. We just need to assert our will at the ballot box consistently and with inspired, informed wisdom each time we cast a ballot and then hold those we elect feet to the fire like our lives depended on it which is a true statement.

      I don‘t know if he’s so brainless, he may realize that he gets more viewers & attention here on the blaze then he does anywhere else. Because honestly, watching that video is actually scary if that’s really there reality and there could be more like-minded people out there. For example, when Bob Beckel is on Fox I know that he is being paid to say the things he does (whether he believes it or not). Although, his show could be called hardball because he took one too many to the head.

      A cautionary note for all Fox viewers, be extra skeptical of anyone working on Fox as a contributor or anything else if they have ever been paid for anything political in the past. The worst ones to watch out for are those that have volunteered or worked for free as interns or anything else to do with party politics. I lost a lot of trust when the blaze hired “former” Huffington Post people to work here. To me it’s the equivalent of Fox hiring Keith Olbermann for being fair and balanced his whole career.

      I always think wisdom is most commonly gained through a healthy combination of knowledge & intellect. While Sarah *may* have an above average intellect, she certainly has one of the smallest knowledge bases in the history of presidential politics. Which leads one to wonder about the likelihood of what she might call her “wisdom” being based on anything real. When this quotient is applied to previous republican presidents & candidates the foundation of these people’s wisdom looks quite compelling. Reagan, George H W Bush, Bob Dole, Richard Nixon, Pat Buchanan are all good examples of these. Even though I may disagree with their politics generally speaking, they can make a compelling argument that comes from the heart; and under tough cross examination they can continue to explain their reasoning in a way that follows logic. This is where George W Bush, Bachmann, Palin, Angle, O’Donnell etc. get into trouble.

      REPUBLICANS- I beg you…please nominate a candidate that meets this test, at least then you’ll have a chance of convincing the rest of us that this person needs to be respected for much more than just “the president deserves our respect because uhhhhh….they’re the president!” And in the mean time please spare us the ridiculous indignation you display when we roll our eyes at these illogical wildcard personalities you have asked us to take seriously. It really should be beneath us both don’t you think?

      my take is Obama is a spending freak that wants to socialize everything – that a spider monkey would do a better job than what he is doing – a spider monkey would take less Secret Service to follow around on the many expensive vacations that our current one has taken, paid for by joe American’s taxes – a spider monkey wouldn’t put us into trillions and trillions of dollars of debt that again joe American has to foot the bill for.

      So yeah, I want Palin, Bachmann, Romney, Huck, anyone…even a Spider Monkey.

      I want someone that has executive experience like a governor and or has a proven private sector track record of success…this is why I like Romney so much…and I want someone who can win independent votes, so Romney and Palin for me.

      McCain and Palin had no chance with the very trendy pick of Obama in 2008. The 2012 fight is shaping up to be epic as Obama’s approval rating is improving – the polls show peeps luv him. Momentum is on his side right now – the Incumbent card is going to be very hard to beat too.

      Chris Mathews is an ugly bag of water and a waste of oxygen. Any conservative is painted stupid and or crazy. If for some reason they just cant stick that paint then they are colored evil like “Darth Vader”.

      “intellectual honestly”, totally agree JZ, she is unelectable.

      what no one seems to get, no matter how much we at “the blaze” loves her, no one else does. dems don’t like her, independents don’t like her. half the republicans don’t like her. her “unfavorable” rating is like 60% now, the highest its ever been. projections say she would get 28% of the vote. romney is probably going to get the nomination. i don‘t think she’s even going to run, she has to have advisers that would tell her “Uh, sarah, we did the math, and its basically impossible for you to win”.

      She could also run as an independent, against romney, and split the conservative vote, and you’d have a guaranteed obama election…. ross perot style.
