SARAH PALIN’S COMIN’ TO TOWN!

Kristinn Taylor is standing in line at the Barnes & Noble Bookseller store in Orlando along with some 1,000 others who are hoping to get a wristband. Why?
Because Sarah Palin is coming to town.

Kristinn, Free Republic media spokesman, says he arrived at the site at 7:45 a.m. to find that there were already 600 people snaked around the front, side and back of the building. Also across a street between two buildings and back up the block, around the front of another set of stores, down that street, and in front of the local … well, you get the idea. It’s a line that snakes a total of seven blocks long.
“After they opened the doors at 9 a.m. we finally turned the corner to the front of the building, and have half a block to go,” Kristinn said.

“The people in line are roughly 50-50 male-female. Chris Matthews will be disappointed to learn that there are minorities in line also waiting to meet Sarah Palin. The crowd is in a good mood and of course, we’re not leaving piles of trash, and in all other ways are well mannered. And as usual with a gathering of conservatives, law enforcement presence is at a minimum. The women in line for this book signing are much more attractive than the women I saw at the Hillary Clinton booksigning some years ago that the Freepers protested at.”
Mercifully the late autumn Florida weather is cooperating.
“It’s in the 70’s and cloudy with a light breeze, so we’re not getting baked,” said the fair haired, fair skinned Freeper.
Earlier this morning Kristinn says “There was a real good Sarah Palin impersonator here . A dead ringer.”
He says they’ve not been told by book store personnel how many wrist bracelets will be distributed.
“The assistant manager said that yesterday Palin’s tour staff authorized the Orlando store to issue “stand-by” bracelets which means that after those with the lettered bracelets are done, if Palin is up to it she’ll start signing books for those in the stand-by line. But no guarantees. Yesterday, according to a Ft. Bragg Public Affairs Officer, Palin took care of 4,000 people. Another 500 disappointed fans were turned away.
“They were told that Palin has gotten into a good rythym and been able to pick up her pace signing books. The bookstore manager said that in a meeting last week about the stop, stand by bracelets weren’t even an option.”
Earlier today at a Jacksonville book signing, Kristinn says it was reported that 500 bracelets were issued for that book signing.
Palin’s next stop today is at The Villages (site of Glenn Beck’s visit last Saturday), and then it will be on to Orlando with an estimated time of arrival at 7:30 p.m. tonight.
Orlando is the last stop of the first portion of her book tour before Sarah takes a break for the Thanksgiving holiday.
Kristinn says media coverage has been good. “All the Orlando TV stations have been here, and Central Florida News 13 is still on site, conducting interviews.”
So as I leave him, Kristinn is in line. Still…

“Yes, she can: Palin has a shot at the presidency”

Patriot Dreamer-these artists never cease to amaze me with their talents. I just noticed a huge difference between Obama and Sarah. Obama attracted “crowds” right after a huge free concert (contrived). Sarah’s crowds are very spontaneous. Information is given time and place and people show up. Very interesting.
Michelle,
People in this country are starting to wake up. Good! 🙂

“Go to the inner cities, the suburbs and small towns where folks are trying to live their lives through great anxiety. And don’t go to talk about yourself, but to listen to others.”
In 1970, Chiles decided to run for a seat in the United States Senate. At the time, despite his 12 years in the state legislature, he was largely unknown outside his Lakeland-based district. To generate some media coverage across the state, Chiles embarked upon a 1,003-mile, 91-day walk across Florida from Pensacola to Key West. The walk earned him the recognition he sought, as well as the nickname that would follow him throughout his political career – “Walkin’ Lawton”. In his journal Chiles wrote that sometimes he walked alone, while other times he met ordinary Floridians along the way. In later years, Chiles would recall the walk allowed him to see Florida’s natural beauty, as well as the state’s problems, with fresh eyes. After the walk, Chiles was elected easily.

http://biggovernment.com/2009/11/24/acorn-document-dump-trashing-a-persons-credit-history/
OK, here’s where I get on my soapbox again–
tearing one woman down to build up another—
let me tell you, Miss Andrea Shea King—
this ONE SENTENCE will TURN OFF
the moderate & independent female voters
that voted for Sarah Palin in the past election and whom she will need in the future.
When will women GET IT RIGHT–Starting
with you?
This “sexist” remark is the BIGGEST Turnoff
and will make those of the Dem side or in the
“middle” run away in fear.
Stop this STUPID CRAP; it is Bull Shit—don’t
care if this is moderated, I am mad Maddie on
this end. Thanks.
“The women in line for this book signing are much more attractive than the women I saw at the Hillary Clinton booksigning some years ago that the Freepers protested at.”
WHAT SEXIST GARBAGE—Why is it even
here?!
Michelle,
Look at this line by A. S. King from above….
“The women in line for this book signing are much more attractive than the women I saw at the Hillary Clinton booksigning some years ago that the Freepers protested at”
This is the biggest bunch of Sexist Crap—
when will it ever end?!
I have a post in moderation hope it getting
posted—-this women against women degredation has got to stop.
Maddie-I have not seen either Sarah or Hillary disparage each other, both seemed very encouraging of each other in the last election cycle. Obviously they will disagree on liberal v/s conservative views-that is the part of the political process I enjoy most-the thrashing it out part. I think one of the biggest problems concerning our country today other than the economy is CORRUPTION. The waste and fraud absolutely drives women and hopefully and equal amount of men NUTS. I’m so glad Andrew Breitbart is taking everybody on. I think in career choices nowadays I’d rather be on a Hannah and James team, than a President. Seems like we have a government, but we need an anti-government to keep the regular government straight. Double work but hey look at the garbage that, and I am a Democrat-has pulled off. The DNC decided to jam Obama down the peoples throats-I’m still gagging. They will rue this decision and all the crimes they committed to accomplish this perversion of the American system and sensibilities.
Maddie-after much embarrassing disarray in Florida re: vote counting this is how we vote now.
Obama sure is the consummate politician. His poll numbers are sagging, and he delayed the Afghanistan decision until he could produce another one of these addresses to the nation that the laptop mainstream media can’t get enough of. What an operator this guy is. Totally dedicated to image. Very little substance.

CLIMATEGATE
Written by Jack Kelly
Tuesday, 24 November 2009
It’s being called Climategate – the “death knell” of climate change hysteria, and of “cap and trade” legislation. A number of the world’s top scientists advocating man-made global warming may go to jail for criminal fraud – and Al Gore may never be invited to another late night talk show again.
During an appearance on NBC’s Tonight show Nov. 12, former Vice President Al Gore told host Conan O’Brien geothermal energy is a promising alternative to fossil fuels because “the interior of the earth is extremely hot, several million degrees, and the crust of the earth is hot.”
The temperature at the earth’s core has been estimated at between 4,000 and 6,000 degrees Celsius. As John Derbyshire of National Review noted, “if the temperature anywhere inside the earth were ‘several million degrees,’ we’d be a star.”
On Friday (11/20), Mr. Gore’s signature cause, anthropogenic global warming (AGW), suffered a mortal blow… if Climategate is reported fully.

Wave of Debt Payments Facing U.S. Government
…
“With the national debt now topping $12 trillion, the White House estimates that the government’s tab for servicing the debt will exceed $700 billion a year in 2019, up from $202 billion this year, even if annual budget deficits shrink drastically. Other forecasters say the figure could be much higher.
In concrete terms, an additional $500 billion a year in interest expense would total more than the combined federal budgets this year for education, energy, homeland security and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.”

Thanks for the heads up and reports on ClimateGate and FluPlague in Iowa. Huge stories with very little media notice. I did hear Stuart Varney on Fox bring it up as well as Beck. Has anyone questioned Gore yet?

Lame Cherry in shock-google’s being nice. ????
Obama Pink Pantie Policy
You know it really is getting bad for Barack Hussein Obama when the liberals at Google are becoming converts to this blog.
What I mean by this is I ran this blog BBO (Before Barack Obama), and all worked quite well, but as soon as the Obama fraud, crimes and treason were being exposed here, Google went on a spree in harassing this blogger with certain tricks of the big server trade.
In 2008, this blog could stay logged in, Google never rejected posts, posts never went missing and all sorts of user friendly things happened, but as soon as Obama appeared here, I have been criminally stalked and harassed by Google making it quite the task to just get the posts up here.
As of November 22nd in a new week though, something strange has happened which has had me blinking in questioning what I was seeing, as Google is back to the old Blogspot user friendly mode for posting information.
When Congress goes back into session, the first order of business should be the impeachment of Barack Hussein Obama for usurping the Constitution as a British citizen. This is that critical as while I have no time for socialite patrician John McCain, he at least comprehends US security and will protect America and the military. America requires that now and not this Marxist takeover of health care.
The Germans have weighed Barack Hussein Obama in the balance have found him wanting. They are now in his abandonment of the eastern Europeans on the front line of the next Eurasian War this blog warned of.
There is no respect now for America as Mr. Obama has lost face across the globe.
As a satirical photo I saw this week taunted America, it is fitting now in this conclusion:
George W. Bush, do you miss me now?
Yes Mr. President, America and the world does

Never forget, YOU called it!
I’d heard a while back that NASDAQ was “invented” by Madoff – of course, with the blessings of all the other names that come up over and over.
It’s sad, isn’t it, to come to grips with the fact this was all a false reality. Believe me, I’ve had my days of depression and periods of grief as I’ve educated myself and others. But, knowledge is power.
You’re right, it will be ugly as it involves ALL nations.
It will be a wild ride, for sure.
Wow, something is very wrong here. Our Navy Seals just captured and brought to justice a key terrorist in Iraq, and guess what? Instead of being thanked, they are being criminally charged. This is utterly bizarre. What is going on here? What an outrage. Read the story:

jc,
gold/silver is the only currency the elites hold. Buy what you can. It will only go up. Most likely we’ll get into bartering if it gets nasty. So…even something like heirloom seeds or garden tools could be used in lieu of currency. Have to get creative. Know what I mean?
Interesting….
The BBC had these leaked/hacked documents 5 weeks ago. They did nothing!
Tim Ball says these Nobel Prizes realted to htis should be recalled.
American Phil West of Wheat Ridge, Colorado erected the above billboard with some prominent talking points concerning Barack Hussein Obama.
Immediately the puppy press started charging racism, anti religion and various other things about Phil West. This blog though enjoys challenges so let us take apart the liberal charges point by point and see if Mr. West is correct or if a liberal radio David Sirota and the ADL are correct.
First, we examine the issue of race.
http://lamecherry.blogspot.com/
Mr. Obama ran as a black man in making race the issue to get guilt ridden or horny women to vote for him in Jungle Fever. He being 50% white, 38% Arab and only 12% black is the one defaming blacks which the ADL should be looking into as he is impersonating the black experience for political gain.
On all counts, Mr. Obama’s internet document of birth would not be allowed as proof in any court of law, driver’s license examination nor in a voter identification issue.
This blog noted exclusively that “African” on Mr. Obama’s certificate proves it is a fraud as the 1961 term would have been negro or negroe.
Mr. Obama is required by law to prove he is a Citizen of the United States. Yet, he has not.
In fact, Mr. Obama admitted on his website he was indeed British, but claimed the issue expired when he came of age. That is not legal as the British Mandate does not expire and Mr. Obama never in public renounced his British citizenship. Therefore he is British as his father was British and his mother being a child when she married Barack sr. was in fact British automatically at that point.
So Mr. Obama was born to two British subjects at birth. It therefore makes no difference where he was born in Hawaii or Kenya as he is British by law and could at this moment run for Parliament legally in Britain.
Furthermore, Mr. Obama was adopted by his step father, Lolo Soetoro, and in double jeopardy is not even a naturalized Citizen of the United States, but an illegal alien.
It does not matter if he was elected president and certified by Congress, because he is still illegal as if one put Texas plates on a stolen British imported car, it still is a stolen British car no matter what one puts on it.
Mr. Obama has proven nothing, except spending almost 2 million dollars hiding all of his legal documents.
Rush all three hours on Climategate, Hannity takes over..
Thanks JustMe. I do know what you mean. The 35% over spot on gold/silver pisses me off, but I agree it could be a good hedge. I put in my first heirloom seed garden this last year and put up a deer fence. I put in blueberries, fruit trees, and have wild raspberries. If the DXY falls below the last supports at 71/72 I am buying chickens and a coop. Have you seen the Eglu?

“It will be a wild ride, for sure.”
We wanted, needed and requested the truth. It is starting surface day by day-Global Warning Scam, Big Government’s revelations FRAUD all over the place. It is so much easier to fix/correct something when all the facts are known. I believe 99.99 per cent of my fellow Americans will pull together for the good of our country. Those in government who thought/think the are “elite”, hello it’s a democratic republic, not a monarchy-that is why we had the Revolutionary War. Obama you’re a Brit, I think George Washington would consider you an enemy of the revolution.
WE THE PEOPLE will reestablish our Constitutional, legal, ethical, moral country to where it needs to be in spite of the known lunatics in our government.

jc,
I know it’s a bit high right now, but….it will just get higher. Right now it’s being artificially suppressed. So, as high as it seems, you should get a bit. Silver spends easier for daily living. Gold for longer term.
You are ahead of the game with your garden. I heard the other day on some show, neighbors were “hearing” the cluckers in neighborhood back yards. What ever it takes. This is where the Mormons are smart. They put food back routinely. Deep freezers, old fashioned canning parties, root cellars, and neighborhood gardens will allow us that are prepared to take care of neighbors and family members that doubted us.
Crime will rise because people will be hungry and desperate. Will have to have neighborhood plans much like “neighborhood watch” programs in place now. It will be a much different world than we’re used to now.

Racial terror in Denver that won’t make national news
The Denver Police Department announced today that they have made 32 arrests during a sweep to end a four-month spree of what police said were racially motivated assaults and robberies in downtown Denver, including the LoDo entertainment district.
A task force comprised of the Denver Police, FBI and the Denver District Attorney’s Office investigated 26 incidents in which groups of black males verbally harassed and then assaulted white or Hispanic males, according to Denver Police Chief Gerry Whitman.
Many of the victims were robbed after being assaulted.

Editorial: The Trillion Dollar Greenbacks’ scam…
or the Conspiracy that was all too real and malign
Michelle,
you’re post reminds me of the words that Venice posts about the elites…they are just people.
I heard an interview this morning that put much in prospective for me. “O” is in the same boat as we are with the elite. He sold his personal sovereignty years ago to the elite without having a second thought about what it would cost him personally.
I am in the process of going over my notes from that interview and will share in a post later this evening. It was a truly enlightening and empowering interview.
Yes, we will pull together, that’s the silver lining in all of this. We have to be alert and continue to keep others informed. CW & fellows are on the forefront of the goings on. I feel we’re all in the right place. We just have to keep an open mind and see “the kernel”, as Venice says, in every bit of information.
I wonder if Obama and his merry band of incompetants are self destructive?
Look at this:

http://market-ticker.org/archives/1091-Ten-Things-You-Must-Do.html
I posted this months ago. But it is worth a refresher. Everyone should prepare for a sudden stop event.
“Don’t count on metals. I know, I know, we’re going to hyperinflate and gold is going to the moon. I have one question: Can you eat it, drink it, run your car on it, sleep under it, or screw it? No? That’s a problem. A “sudden stop” is not a hyperinflationary event – it has good odds of being quite the opposite. God help you if you put your eggs in that basket and are wrong.”
Denninger may be correct, but 10-20% in metals would be a good back up for storage of long term wealth after the rest of your bases are covered.
This man is truly delusional…here’s his statement today after the scandal of Climate Gate. But then again, what would he say? Anything other than this would be an admission of guilt.
snipped from Brietbart:
“US President Barack Obama said Tuesday the world has moved “one step closer” to a “strong operational agreement” on climate change at next month’s Copenhagen summit after his talks with Indian and Chinese leaders.”
I wonder if he will even attend Copenhagen? There have been headlines eluding that he may not a few days ago.
Were these headlines setting up this situation that gave him an out? After all, the BBC had these leaked/hacked documents and emails now close to 6 weeks ago.

I swear, if a 5,000 ton iceberg dropped on Barky’s head he’d think it was God (the other God, ya know, the *real* one) talking to him..
I would assume, however, that his ears would deflect it.
As far as elitism goes I pick WE THE PEOPLE, governed by the Constitution of the United States of America. Before revolutions when most of the world had monarchies the FOOL was a very important member of the court-to remind the KING he was a mere mortal man, who had a job to do, subject to the same laws which govern all humanity.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jester
In societies where freedom of speech was not recognized as a right, the court jester—precisely because anything he said was by definition “a jest” and “the uttering of a fool”—could speak frankly on controversial issues[1] in a way in which anyone else would have been severely punished for. Monarchs understood the usefulness of having such a person at their side.[1] Still, even the jester was not entirely immune from punishment, and he needed to walk a thin line and exercise careful judgment in how far he might go — which required him to be far from a fool, in the modern sense.
James VI of Scotland was originally very lazy about reading things before signing them. His jester, George Buchanan (1506—82) tricked him into abdicating in favour of George for 15 days. James got the point.[5]
King James also employed a jester called Archibald Armstrong. During his lifetime Armstrong was given great honours at court. He was eventually thrown out of the King’s employment when he over-reached himself and insulted too many influential people. Even after his disgrace, books telling of his jests were sold in London streets. He held some influence at court still in the reign of Charles I and estates of land in Ireland. Charles later employed a jester called Jeffrey Hudson who was very popular and loyal. Jeffrey Hudson had the title of Royal Dwarf because he was short of stature. One of his jests was to be presented hidden in a giant pie from which he would leap out. Hudson fought on the Royalist side in the English Civil War. A third jester associated with Charles I was called Muckle John.
The root of the word “fool” is from the Latin follis, which means “bag of wind” or that which contains air or breath.
Buffoon
In similar vein, Buffoon is a term for someone who provides amusement through inappropriate appearance and/or behavior.[13]
Strictly, a buffoon describes a “ridiculous, but nevertheless amusing person.” In broader terms, a buffoon is a clown-like, publicly amusing person, such as a court jester. In the more modern sense, the term is frequently used in a derogatory sense to describe someone considered a public fool, or someone displaying inappropriately vulgar, bumbling or ridiculous behavior that is a source of general amusement.
The term may originate from the old Italian “buffare”, meaning to puff out one’s cheeks. Robin Williams’s character conjectures in the movie Toys that the word “is a combination of the words ‘buffer’ and ‘fool.’ Or perhaps ‘buffamotus,’ he who carries the pickle.”

Hey Michelle,
Barky’s resume below. He who carries the pickle:
“Strictly, a buffoon describes a “ridiculous, but nevertheless amusing person.” In broader terms, a buffoon is a clown-like, publicly amusing person, such as a court jester. In the more modern sense, the term is frequently used in a derogatory sense to describe someone considered a public fool, or someone displaying inappropriately vulgar, bumbling or ridiculous behavior that is a source of general amusement.

Maybe the Mayan calendar about 2012 was partially correct. Only it wasn’t the end of the world, it was the Obama regime imploding!!!!
I only hope they were off by 2 years.
Fasten your seatbelts
Maddie, No problem for me. Martha’s always been rather boring to me. She always has her nose in the air and most of the “ingredients” she uses, I’ve never heard of, much less would be able to find in a store. Just give me good ol’ Betty Crocker! If I actually tried to use her as a role model, my whole family would be miserable. Dogs, mud on the floor, and messy sloppy joes for dinner is what makes a family a happy one! Perfections over-rated…and Martha’s too much of a perfectionist for me…always has been.
And if Sarah’s not welcomed in her world, then Martha’s not welcomed into mine.
SueK-how is Cricket? I think buffoonery always defeats pompous assery, which has clearly gotten out of control in our Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches of the government. Pelosi, Jarrett and Obama being the worst offenders in my book-criminals with “airs” and who could forget Pelosi’s “they’re astroturf” comments.

I can do cooking, but it doesn’t thrill, I can only eat non-fancy food-nothing embellished. I’m such a peasant-my favorite foods-healthy-peasant stock stuff, which is the basis of frugal French cooking-they waste nothing. My personal favorite is veal bones and noodles paprikash. Must be the French Hungarian blood needing a fix and it has to be the bones, the other stuff would be too dry.
Before I got smart in one of my houses in Illinois before I ripped out the rug and went down to the oak floors one of my girl friends stopped over and caught me vacuuming, she said you must really hate vacuuming. I said how could you tell? She said by the look on your face. Rug gone soon after. Here in Florida I have terrazzo floors, we love them. After Hurricane Andrew breezed through a lot of people had to rip out their flooded carpeting and found how easy care and comfortable terrazzo is and never went back to carpeting.

Holding Barky and his minions up to ridicule not only gets it off one’s chest, but can also serve to denigrate them in the court of public opinion; for narcissists, this is like a death sentence, as they want and need to be worshipped constantly.
If we can’t smack ’em around in person, we can sure pummel ’em in print and by word of mouth.
Cricket ate the entire contents of fridge this morning; have to restock tonight. I know this thing will come back, but we’ll cross that bridge when we get to it. Thanks for asking!
Cricket-wow he must have been starving. Anything you can do for maintenance?
Have you all gotten your English Version of the Quran, delievered to your door like A telephone book yet? When will the destruction to MY DAD’S Country end???

He’s fine, Michelle…it’s just that he was off his food for a few days and now is catching up.
I just give him what he likes!

HUH?
Is this for real, Margie?
Al Whgore and CLIMATE GATE.
Why isn’t he arrested? There is no difference between Al Whgore and Bernie Madoff.
They are both RIP-OFF Ponzi Shcemers.
hey Gianni,
since our faux POTUS is not legally POTUS, yes, foreign powers can “sue” USA troops at “war” as committing murders.
Action by troops under BHO is “illegal” and not “war”.
Another fun consequence of BHO not legally being president! Read more about it over at Mario Apuzzo’s site….
Would you like to see Sarah Palin run for president in 2012?

Hi all,
I would like to apologize for the bad language
this morning (including posting in moderation).
I lost it. Sorry. I get upset when women (not Hillary Clinton or Sarah Palin) in this case
Ms. King put down the “looks” of Hillary supporters in line as compared to Sarah supporters. How people “look” have nothing to do with any issue unless we are now putting our female “candidates” into beauty contests instead of running for president! So degrading!!!!

SueK—Glad to hear Cricket is eating you out of house and home
Ticktock & Michelle— Agree with both of your postings regarding comments about Martha Stewart. I’d rather have Sarah P. in my house,
and it would be more comfortable—and from
Greta’s interviews with her, I’d say her cooking
looked really good.
Sloppy Joes, muddy dog, feeding birds, fall leaves coming inside and Lady Bugs, too, that’s what we’ve got here–
lots of fun and love—fine with me:)
Those of you who have a dog, try “reading” a
book with your pet. I just started that at night, and she seems to like it–looks up at me as I read a couple of words, then at the page, and keeps
repeating that behavior—thought it was interesting.

Margie,
Are you serious about this? What state?
This is not funny.
LisaGinNZ–since our faux POTUS is not legally POTUS, yes, foreign powers can “sue” USA troops at “war” as committing murders

That would be true. Can you believe we are in
this kind of situation? What a mess! How will
it end?!
Michelle,
Did you hear that Patrick Kennedy is now
banned from Communion in the Catholic Church? Was on Fox News tonight (on O’Reilly).
My husband walked past the computer and said, “good.”
