Huckabee: Palin Has More Experience Than Obama (VIDEO)

“Dwight D. Eisenhower once said, that his experience in Europe taught him that the rise of extreme movements could be explained only by the psychological yearnings and social needs of its supporters, that was back in the late 1950's.

A pyschoanalyst named Eric Fromm identified and analyzed the character structure of people eager to surrender their freedom, who sought personal transcendence through authoritarian causes and figureheads. He was talking about the nature of fanaticism, he limited his analysis to the behavior of those who adhered to right-wing authoritarian movements, which he pinpointed as hothouses of individual dsyfunction.

With that being said, pay close attention to these nuts, they are going about the business of taking over the federal government, and individual rights and freedoms.

Read the book, Republican Gomorrah by Max Blumenthal. Get informed and prepared. These evangelical hard right cons are on a mission.”

“I've read the book but didn't need to to know what the Palin/Bush­/Cheney/Ru­msfeld team was (is) all about.
Better to read anything by Mencken to get a humorous twist on what's happening.”

“" These evangelical hard right cons are on a mission." Yup, just like the 1930's Germany...­..

“The US Army was flat out wrong to allow this quitter and seditionist to utilize their base to spew nonsense while under the guise of selling her book. What a slap in the face to the president and CiC.”

“Wall St. donated LOTS of money to the Obama campaign.”

troutbum replied on Nov 20, 2009 at 15:41:24

“Wall St backed his campaign financially so that they had the ability to craft and send out the message that liberal progressives wanted to hear. So, yes the lib/prog voted him in, but he serves the people who financed the aquisition of those votes. GS was his number 2 campaign contributor for godsakes.”

“Tell it to Fort Bragg. This is an outrage. They allow a regular citizen to use a military base to promote a book. Why is she allowed to use a military base for this. Who is paying for the security? If this isn't a smack in the face to the CiC, I don't know what is. The army should be ashamed of themselves, for such blatant disrespect.

“That was so last summer. You can't expect us to actually pay attention for months at a time? We've forgotten the mistress and that he left the state without telling anyone where he was going.

Here's my prediction. Sanford won't be impeached no matter how bad the ethics report looks. The next govenor will be a Republican. We don't easily learn from our mistakes here in SC.”

“RE: Opt Out . The people in your state need to protest. He works for you, not the insurance companies. That concession is a part of the bill because the representatives in those states that opt out, know that the people will not rise up.”

“chill,

there's no law yet don't put the cart before the horse

secondly no state is really going to opt out since every state is still required to pay in... its a sham”
