I must come to the defense of Tybird - because us whom lean a bit to the right get beaten up here. I'm reading Lyberty and Tyranny by Mark Levin - A NY Times (Liberal Rag) Best Seller. Almost finished with it. It's a great read! Some of you Leftist might should try reading it as well - as soon as you're done with the EV Book Club Novels. Oh - that's right - that doesn't exist. Sorry.

if you would look at tht post you would see that i was replying to perfectlefts who quoted my post under tybrid's name. he told me to see a doctor so i told him to read a book. nothing to do with you jain....

My bad.

I feel a need to say that I have friends whom are "Liberals" and bless their hearts, their "hearts" are actually in the right place. I can deal with Liberals. I have a hard time with "Leftists" - as common sense - by all standards - does not exist. I have no tolerance. The U.S. Constitution still resonates with me.

i am glad the constitution still resonates with at least one conservative. the last administration wiped its collective ass with it. it is going to take years to undo the attacks on personal and civil liberties alone.

we have all been expressing our points of view in this thread. but don't worry, if you don't feel "worthy enough" i will understand since you have such a superiority complex you can not lower yourself to our level to indulge us in a conversation about sarah palin and her reasons for being a quitter and why we agree/disagree with her. the "sandbox" is big enough for all points of view. you instead choose to sit back and act like you are above the rest of us. degrees are a decent indicator of intellect in our society these days, but then again so is ignorance and arrogance.

At least now you understand - we are on the same page. I just have a bit of a problem with your last statment about ignorance and "arrogance." Takes one to know one, dude. You are obviously too profound a person for me to respond. Enjoy the next 3 and half years. The clock is ticking dude.

BTW - you (and all of the other Leftists) just love that Sarah walked away from being Gov. of Alaska. It gives you all more fodder. It's common knowledge that you Leftist just love to feed on THAT. BTW - what magazines or books do YOU read - quickly now - don't hesitate. Answer right now. Most are Liberal Rags - anyway...just like most of the Liberal-slanted media. People are growing tired of the Liberal LIES now.

Regardless - there seem to be so many Leftists (not Liberals) on this websight. You all should be ashamed. Very judgemental to say the least. I find your hatred for those whom disagree with you- very sickening. However - I do understand.........as I personally can't sit in the same room with a Leftist. We have absolutely nothing in common and do not understand each other. To each his own - however - your kind really scares me.

Kind of ironic you give your speech about hatred, and then in the same breath talk about not being able to sit in the same room as a leftist. I have plenty of great friends with different political preferences to me.

I gather if you're a leftist or have a leftist point of view from PearlJain's point of view you've become a plagued leper that should be abandoned out in the Sahara Desert.

I have friends who have PJ's political views and I rather enjoy their company and we crack each other up. I can get tired of people with the same old topics and political talk. What I don't understand is how can ANYONE come on this site and hate people just because they have a different point of view from yours and know that THIS SITE is a left leaning site due to the band we listen to Pearl Jam. As long as you state the reasoning behind your thought process it's ALL cool with me, just keep it graceful under pressure.

If that's the case find some right leaning band where you may feel more comfortable and post there. I'm an Independent and I visit Hannity's website just to see what that political thinking side is yacking about. It's funny the threads they come up with and arguments they get into, far different from that what goes on here. We ALL need to see ALL political sides of things whether we agree or disagree with those thoughts and ideas. It's one of the only ways I think we can better ourselves.

Peace

I just don't understand what you're talking about here. I spoke of being in the same place with someone that has a different point of view whether leftist or otherwise. I may not not be as intellectually astute as you but in your opinion what's the difference between a leftist and a liberal? I'm just asking to get a better grip on your strong point of view.

You are obviously a "Liberal" because you don't know what a "Leftist" is. You ended your post with the word "Peace." You can easily "Google" "Liberal" and "Leftist" and draw your own assumptions. My personal opinion is very slanted.

Like I've posted above I can engage others with their points of views and I've my points on what a liberal is and what a leftist is. I'm just simply asking you what yours is whether it's slanted or not it matters none to me.
Oh the reason why I end ALL my whatever number posts, is due to way back when I was in the military long story.

I think you are missing one fundamental fact... Sarah Palin is not just someone with an opinion. She is a leader... or former leader of one of our 50 state. She was on a Presidential ticket to be second in command of our armed forced and everything that goes along with it... including the Nuclear Option. That is a position that requires great scrutiny by the people of this nation because that seat is one of great power.
...
You would be 100% correct if Sarah Palin was just a homemaker in Wasillia, AK. Her opinions would be just the same as yours and mine and people (including myself) should be ashamed of ourselves for attacking a homemaker and judging her so harshly. The problem is... she is not a homemaker. She is a politician with aspirations to become the President of this nation.
If you think we should be ashamed about our criticism of Palin... you should be equally sickened about the things you hear people saying about President Obama, Vice-President Biden, Representative Pelosi, Governor Schwarzenegger and every other politician that seeks public office. My guess... you ain't.

I would answer you - MY definition of Liberal versus Leftest on this thread - except it would only bring even more negative responses. You already know - being former military (We - my husband and I are former military, too). I knew there was a reason I didn't want to argue with you. I would love to hear your (long) story -so please feel free to P.M. me. You served this country - therefore - I can never say anything negative about you. You've earned the right, dude. Regardless of your current opinion. I was a complete Lib once upon a time. I'm not anymore. My opinion doesn't matter (on this websight) anyway. Thanks for serving - as corny as they may sound - I truly mean it.

if ya can't take the heat get out of the kitchen. and she got out of the kitchen. its just so typical of her. if she can't get her way she will quit. the lame duck thing was complete bs. me being a liberal i felt like it would be fun to have a laugh at her expense, but the american citizen in me feels obligated to let her have it. she quit on her state. she was a leader of one of the 50 states, a governor, the highest position in each state and she walked away from that and she walked out on the citizens of alaska. it is my duty as an american citizen to criticize her for that. it is your duty as a vet to criticize her for walking out on one of the states that you fought to defend. and her quitting does not bother you? i can see resigning in disgrace or not seeking re-election but she just QUIT. it is disgraceful.

i read as much as i can, some conservative papers and some liberal. what does it matter to you? i read local papers as well as the new york times, the washington post, the guardian when i look at the site, the wall street journal, and usa today to name a few. i work in a doctors office so we subscribe to all of them and i read what i can. you call the media liberal slanted because it tells you thihngs that you do not wnt to hear and tries to hold accountable those that you probably voted for. it is the duty of the press to do that, not just be a shill for an administration like rush, hannnity and fox news. people may be growing tired of the "liberal lies" but we are also tired of the republicans pissing and moaing and doing absolutely NOTHING to try to compromise on anything and they are bringing no new ideas to the table about anything other than the same tax cut bs.

Palin says Obama's health care plan is 'evil'
By MARK THIESSEN Associated Press Writer The Associated Press
Friday, August 7, 2009 8:23 PM EDT

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin called President Barack Obama's health plan "downright evil" Friday in her first online comments since leaving office, saying in a Facebook posting that he would create a "death panel" that would deny care to the neediest Americans.

"The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama's 'death panel' so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their 'level of productivity in society,' whether they are worthy of health care," the former Republican vice presidential candidate wrote.

"Such a system is downright evil," Palin wrote on her page, which has nearly 700,000 supporters. She encouraged her supporters to be engaged in the debate.

The claim that the Democratic health care bills would encourage euthanasia has been circulating on the Internet for weeks and has been echoed by some Republican leaders. Democrats from Obama on down have dismissed it as a distortion. The nonpartisan group FactCheck.org, a project of the Annenberg Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania says the claim is false.

The allegation appears to be based on a provision of the House bill that would require Medicare to pay for end-of-life counseling sessions, on a voluntary basis, for beneficiaries who want the service. Medicare already covers hospice care. And legislation passed by Congress in 1990 requires that patients be asked if they have a living will.

Obama addressed the controversy during a July 28 AARP-sponsored town hall.

"Nobody is going to be forcing you to make a set of decisions on end-of-life care based on some bureaucratic law in Washington," he said.

An e-mail sent to Palin's spokeswoman to confirm authorship of the Facebook posting was not immediately returned Friday. There was no immediate reply to phone messages left late Friday with the White House and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's office seeking comment on Palin's remarks.

Republican criticism has also included claims that the reform plans will lead to rationing, or the government determining which medical procedures a patient can have.

However, millions of Americans already face rationing, as insurance companies rule on procedures they will cover. Denying coverage for certain procedures might increase under proposals to have a government-appointed agency identify medicines and procedures best suited for various conditions.

Palin resigned as Alaska governor on July 26 with nearly 18 months left in her term. She cited not only the numerous ethics complaints that had been filed against her also her wish not to be a lame duck after the first-term governor decided not to seek re-election next year.

Palin, popular with conservatives in the Republican party, has said she wants to build a right-of-center coalition, and there is speculation she will seek the presidency in 2012. In the two weeks since she resigned, Palin has made only one public appearance, giving a Second Amendment rights speech last Saturday before a gun owners group in Anchorage.

Palin or her aides post notes on her Facebook account about once or twice a week, usually to set out policy statements, issue news releases or refute rumors circulating on the Internet.

Palin also has been largely silent before Friday's Facebook post. She was a voracious user of the social networking site Twitter, and promised to keep her supporters updated with a new private account after she left office. But that hasn't happened, leaving some of her fans begging for updates in the past two weeks.
