View Full Version : Palin: "I Love Visiting "Pro-America" Areas

What the....is she saying there parts of America that are more American than others!?!? How dare she belittle parts of America!!


The McCain campaign is seeking to clarify a remark reported from a Sarah Palin fundraiser in North Carolina yesterday in which the Alaska Governor declared that she loved to visit the "pro-America" areas of the country -- implying, implicitly, that there were some parts of the United States she viewed as not pro-America. The reporter who broke the story, the Washington Post's Juliet Eilperin, sends over the following, extended quote from a more detailed version of the pool report.

"We believe that the best of America is not all in Washington, D.C. We believe" -- here the audience interrupted Palin with applause and cheers -- "We believe that the best of America is in these small towns that we get to visit, and in these wonderful little pockets of what I call the real America, being here with all of you hard working very patriotic, um, very, um, pro-America areas of this great nation. This is where we find the kindness and the goodness and the courage of everyday Americans. Those who are running our factories and teaching our kids and growing our food and are fighting our wars for us. Those who are protecting us in uniform. Those who are protecting the virtues of freedom."

Your post alone is Anti-American. Tell that to all the democrats who have served and are serving in our Armed Forces right now. To the democrat who has been laid off from his job, or the democrat who has lost their 401K or lost their homes. Yeah, that is really showing your support and a spit in their faces. You and Sarah should be proud.

If it is, there's a lot of places that are anti-american. There's been recent fairly solid groups pushing secession not only in Alaska, but in New Hampshire, Texas (there's always at least one group in Texas), and California, at least. There's also been many fun instances of townships and counties declairing independence from the states.

Suspending the Geneva Convention = Anti-American


Biggest load of crap ever...if they don't clearly mark themselves as an enemy army, the Geneva Convention isn't supposed to apply to them. Revisionism at it's finest...

If they want to mark themselves clearly as enemy combatants so we can exterminate them I am all for the survivors getting the protections of the Geneva Convention...

If they want to masquerade as civilians, deliberately putting true civilians at risk, and in some cases directly targeting them...I am for inflicting as much pain and suffering upon them as is humanly possible, and then executing them.


I am in favor of video taping it just so they'll know exactly what happens to enemy combatants that refuse to clearly mark themselves.


The Geneva Convention was never intended to protect spies or guerillas. It was meant to protect those that fight according to a certain set of rules.

I don't think you'd be as understanding if the spouses of the governors from New York or California joined secession groups.

Secession, by definition, is "anti" whatever it is the group wants to secede from.... so if a state wants to no longer be a part of the United States of America, then they are against being included in the union of states generally known as Americans, and are plainly and simply anti-american.

They're why states like Alaska want to secede.




Secession, by definition, is "anti" whatever it is the group wants to secede from....

And the degreee of offensiveness depends on what they're seceding from.




so if a state wants to no longer be a part of the United States of America, then they are against being included in the union of states generally known as Americans, and are plainly and simply anti-american.

Not of if the Union was becoming under control of states filled with those that are anti-American.

Um...McCain was clearly marked as an enemy combatant and he was an official party of the conflict.

I didn't spin anything...

Article 4 of the Geneva Convention:





A. Prisoners of war, in the sense of the present Convention, are persons belonging to one of the following categories, who have fallen into the power of the enemy:

1. Members of the armed forces of a Party to the conflict as well as members of militias or volunteer corps forming part of such armed forces.

2. Members of other militias and members of other volunteer corps, including those of organized resistance movements, belonging to a Party to the conflict and operating in or outside their own territory, even if this territory is occupied, provided that such militias or volunteer corps, including such organized resistance movements, fulfil the following conditions:

(a) That of being commanded by a person responsible for his subordinates;

(b) That of having a fixed distinctive sign recognizable at a distance;

(c) That of carrying arms openly;

(d) That of conducting their operations in accordance with the laws and customs of war.

3. Members of regular armed forces who profess allegiance to a government or an authority not recognized by the Detaining Power.

4. Persons who accompany the armed forces without actually being members thereof, such as civilian members of military aircraft crews, war correspondents, supply contractors, members of labour units or of services responsible for the welfare of the armed forces, provided that they have received authorization from the armed forces which they accompany, who shall provide them for that purpose with an identity card similar to the annexed model.

5. Members of crews, including masters, pilots and apprentices, of the merchant marine and the crews of civil aircraft of the Parties to the conflict, who do not benefit by more favourable treatment under any other provisions of international law.

6. Inhabitants of a non-occupied territory, who on the approach of the enemy spontaneously take up arms to resist the invading forces, without having had time to form themselves into regular armed units, provided they carry arms openly and respect the laws and customs of war.

B. The following shall likewise be treated as prisoners of war under the present Convention:

1. Persons belonging, or having belonged, to the armed forces of the occupied country, if the occupying Power considers it necessary by reason of such allegiance to intern them, even though it has originally liberated them while hostilities were going on outside the territory it occupies, in particular where such persons have made an unsuccessful attempt to rejoin the armed forces to which they belong and which are engaged in combat, or where they fail to comply with a summons made to them with a view to internment.

2. The persons belonging to one of the categories enumerated in the present Article, who have been received by neutral or non-belligerent Powers on their territory and whom these Powers are required to intern under international law, without prejudice to any more favourable treatment which these Powers may choose to give and with the exception of Articles 8, 10, 15, 30, fifth paragraph, 58-67, 92, 126 and, where diplomatic relations exist between the Parties to the conflict and the neutral or non-belligerent Power concerned, those Articles concerning the Protecting Power. Where such diplomatic relations exist, the Parties to a conflict on whom these persons depend shall be allowed to perform towards them the functions of a Protecting Power as provided in the present Convention, without prejudice to the functions which these Parties normally exercise in conformity with diplomatic and consular usage and treaties.

C. This Article shall in no way affect the status of medical personnel and chaplains as provided for in Article 33 of the present Convention.





PS: John McCain was

A. A member of an official party to the conflict.

B. Clearly marked as an enemy combatant by the plane and uniform he was wearing.

Actually their was a treaty about having to let inspectors have full view of their Nuclear program.

Not with the US there wasn't. Not that Saddam's actions wouldn't have broken any such treaty a dozen times over anyway.




I remember Colin Powell in front of the UN. I saw it on T.V. Microfilm and phone taps and all. So again where are the WMD's that the Bush Administration knew so much about.

This is actually something I would love to see be done. But it can't be done with force or else it won't work. People don't like when you go into their house and start making decisions for them no matter what it is. It actually breeds more hostility and violence.


I posted the entire article 4 of the Geneva Convention...you show me that part of it that backs up your statement.

Yes we know you think we had all the right to do what we wanted because it was a cease fire. Saddam was bound to give inspectors full access to the Nuclear Program. He didn't then he did after threats. Bush didn't think it was good or quick enough. We all remember what happened.

Actually I was...at the same time, I just don't know for sure that anyone did...I just know some Democrats are too fucking stupid to know how to vote...whether by ballot, or by machine.

But even if they did...could have been undone in 4 years if the Democrats weren't so fucking stupid and didn't politicize a war that most of them supported....including the ones who sat on the Senate Intelligence Commitee...like Senator John Fuck Stick Kerry.

This shit going on now is before the fact...and is blatant...

And if you think there isn't going to be massive fallout from it...you are being stupid.




So explain to me how you win this war?

Simple...true representative government with legtimate civil rights in a Mideastern Muslim Country....this puts every shithead country like Iran, Saudi Arabia and Syria under a microscope and they can no longer say it's just Israel and the US fucking the Muslims over.




What would you say constitutes a victory

An Arab country hated by Saudi Arabia and Iran and much as Israel and the US are and for similar reasons.



and how long and how many lives do you think it will take?
It'll take much longer with asshat Americans wanting a pullout...that gives those we fight a reason to hold on...

You'd have to be incomparably stupid to not understand this.




Again what constitutes a victory?

In Iraq? A few peaceful transfers of powers...human rights, representative government, an ideological alliance with the US and Israel...

And oh yeah...the day they unite at all levels peacfully, and tell us we aren't needed anymore.










Not that I would ever want to you neocon warhawk. Typical how you call anybody that doesn't agree with your point of view a traitor. Even veterans that fought while you sat on your ass.

You want me to find some veterans that agree with me? S'not hard to do...




So exactly how are they supporting Islamic Terrorists?

By having the exact same goals and saying the exact same thing...and tying one hand behind their own countries back.

No...the main reason we went into Iraq was because we couldn't go into Saudi Arabia, Iran and Pakistan...we had no legal recouse, they weren't in violation of Cease Fire agreements with us, in some cases our economies are married, and we would have had a much bloodier war with much more intense fighting, against more combatants...plus they didn't have a history of invading their neighbors.

You say it was primarily about WMD...I say it was a message to Saudi Arabia, Iran and Pakistan to get their shit together.

Saudi Arabia and Pakistan immediately got this message at least at some levels...Iran did not.


Make no mistake about it...we do not have the ability to stop terrorist attacks in our country...those countries are the ones with the power to stop them...

And the idea that Bush will fucking invade them as he clearly stated in his Bush doctrine...is the main reason we have not had a single attack on this soil since 2001....it's got little or nothing to do with the Department of Homeland Security....that's my interpretation of it.

JEDDAH, 27 September 2005 — The Council of Ministers yesterday approved the new labor law that allows women to work in all fields that suit their nature and raises the rate of Saudization of jobs in companies to 75 percent....

....Culture and Information Minister Iyad Madani said the new labor law, which has been endorsed by the Shoura Council, insisted that the number of Saudis working in a company should be at least 75 percent. The law, however, allows the labor minister to reduce this rate temporarily if there is a shortage of qualified hands required by companies....

....Labor Minister Ghazi Al-Gosaibi said the new law, which replaces the one issued 37 years ago, took into account national and international developments and changes and realized the interests of all parties on the job market....

Dylantin has exactly one use, which I did not know at that time...and that's to prevent seizures in people that have suffered traumatic brain injuries.

It just so happened the doctor that was interviewing me after my physicial(and was telling me that I could do just about anyting I wanted in the military with my AVSAB score of 96) was a retired neurosurgeon who instantly nailed me on the Dylantin and asked why I didn't list ever having a subdural hematoma.

I told him I didn't think it was important, since it was a minor injury.

He rolled his eyes at me and told me nice try, he then told me he appreciated my enthusiasm but to limit legal liability I would have to undergo months of extensive psychological battery and get medical clearance from the doctor who performed the surgery on me, to be able to perform the physical tasks required.


That head injury happened when I was 16 years old in 1986, this was 2001 and I was 33 years old, not only was the guy that originally performed the surgery on me dead, but the cut off date for being inducted was 34 years old. I tried for several months to get the physical clearance I originally had from the Hospitial, records they no longer had from 15 years earlier...and when I told the neurosurgeon this he told me it was going to cost the Army too much money to test me, and they would be too liable. They had a huge phonebook size book on the testing that would have to be done to approve me.

He told me appreciated my efforts but there were plenty of young men joining at that time, that would not cost as much as me, and he appreciated by patriotism, but he couldn't approve me for joining the US Military.


I am 40 now, and while the age of joining the reserves has been pushed back to I believe 42 (and yes I do still check), they still won't clear me mentally or physically for joining, I will still cost more than they think than I am worth due to my age, the tests necessary and possible lawsuits should something go wrong.

I am the only male in generations of my immediate family that has not served in the US Military...and it is not something I am proud of.


In short...some of consider it an honor to serve our country, not an obligation..so go fuck yourself for thinking you have me figured out...asshole.

New Labor Law OK’d

P.K. Abdul Ghafour, Arab News


JEDDAH, 27 September 2005 — The Council of Ministers yesterday approved the new labor law that allows women to work in all fields that suit their nature and raises the rate of Saudization of jobs in companies to 75 percent....

....Culture and Information Minister Iyad Madani said the new labor law, which has been endorsed by the Shoura Council, insisted that the number of Saudis working in a company should be at least 75 percent. The law, however, allows the labor minister to reduce this rate temporarily if there is a shortage of qualified hands required by companies....

....Labor Minister Ghazi Al-Gosaibi said the new law, which replaces the one issued 37 years ago, took into account national and international developments and changes and realized the interests of all parties on the job market....

http://www.arabnews.com/?page=1&section=0&article=70723&d=27&m=9&y=2005&pix=kingdom.jpg&category=Kingdom

So in late 2005, Saudi Arabia changes their labor law in order to employ more Saudi Arabians -- and in 2006, the unemployment rate of Saudi Arabians drops.

Shocking.

Didn't drop in 2005 now did it?



It dropped in 2005

Fuck stick...I tried to sign up immediately after September 11th. I told my recruiter I had a traumatic brain injury when I was 16 and asked if that would keep me from being able to join..


I had an accident playing soccer when I was 18, fell full body on the back of my head and lost consciousness for about 1 hour. I still faintly remember waking up, without knowing where I was, what time it was, who I was... took me a good couple of hours to get my memory back... when it did, I got desperate and told the doctor I wanted to call my family, and the doctor looked at me in a kind of weird way and told me I already have done so 45 minutes earlier... to this date, I still have no recollection of that phone call.
Luckily, after 48 hours of observation at the hospital, everything cleared up ok for me.

While I think you come across as perhaps the most obtuse poster here in the Political forum, I'm actually glad you recovered well from your injury. :tu

Here's the actual quote:
Iran's unemployment rate is about the same as 2001 after spiking last year.

Pakistan's unemployment rate has always been higher since 2001.

Saudi Arabia's dropped between 2005 and 2006 but remained unchanged in the other years.

Who said anything about sanctions?? I'm totally against sanctions. It doesn't hurt anybody but innocent civilians. There are other ways to try to encourage a change in living standards and human rights.


Fuck the world...the world isn't on our side. The world is stupid.

:lol :lol Classic. Only whottt knows what is best in this world. And yet you say you're not arrogant. :lol :lol


Actually I was...at the same time, I just don't know for sure that anyone did...I just know some Democrats are too fucking stupid to know how to vote...whether by ballot, or by machine.

You don't know for sure that anyone did?? How about the votes not being considered legit by one person (a Repug). Kathleen Harris ring a bell??


But even if they did...could have been undone in 4 years if the Democrats weren't so fucking stupid and didn't politicize a war that most of them supported....including the ones who sat on the Senate Intelligence Commitee...like Senator John Fuck Stick Kerry.

Even if they did?? So it's ok to steal a presidency for 1 term because they can always make it right 4 years later?? Classic. I can't believe you really believe this. Again where are the WMD's that the government knew all about?? Another lie from them??


This shit going on now is before the fact...and is blatant...

And if you think there isn't going to be massive fallout from it...you are being stupid.

Actually it was much worse in 2000. Anybody with half a brain knows that.


Simple...true representative government with legtimate civil rights in a Mideastern Muslim Country....this puts every shithead country like Iran, Saudi Arabia and Syria under a microscope and they can no longer say it's just Israel and the US fucking the Muslims over.

And this can be done by force with heavy civilian casualties?? :lol :lol you are delusional.


An Arab country hated by Saudi Arabia and Iran and much as Israel and the US are and for similar reasons.


It'll take much longer with asshat Americans wanting a pullout...that gives those we fight a reason to hold on...

You'd have to be incomparably stupid to not understand this.

Of course it will take much longer. We are talking decades and even then maybe. The best way is to not do it by force. Hard to make it a good selling point when innocent family members are being killed due to "collateral damage".


In Iraq? A few peaceful transfers of powers...human rights, representative government, an ideological alliance with the US and Israel...

And oh yeah...the day they unite at all levels peacfully, and tell us we aren't needed anymore.

Israel is not peaceful by any means. They have warhawks there just like in the U.S. Again this will take decades and even then it's a maybe. Civilian casualties do not help this at all.


You want me to find some veterans that agree with me? S'not hard to do...

Your point??


By having the exact same goals and saying the exact same thing...and tying one hand behind their own countries back.

You lost me here. Please explain yourself.


I am very enlightened on this subject...I'm enlightened enough to know that being enlightened isn't enough.

No...the main reason we went into Iraq was because we couldn't go into Saudi Arabia, Iran and Pakistan...we had no legal recouse, they weren't in violation of Cease Fire agreements with us, in some cases our economies are married, and we would have had a much bloodier war with much more intense fighting, against more combatants...plus they didn't have a history of invading their neighbors.

You say it was primarily about WMD...I say it was a message to Saudi Arabia, Iran and Pakistan to get their shit together.

Saudi Arabia and Pakistan immediately got this message at least at some levels...Iran did not.


Make no mistake about it...we do not have the ability to stop terrorist attacks in our country...those countries are the ones with the power to stop them...

And the idea that Bush will fucking invade them as he clearly stated in his Bush doctrine...is the main reason we have not had a single attack on this soil since 2001....it's got little or nothing to do with the Department of Homeland Security....that's my interpretation of it.



I don't think the US Govt is going to announce their strategy to the world...that'd be kind of stupid.

So you're ok with the government lying to the people to sell a war?? Cause that what it sounds like to me. And LMAO @ you thinking the war in Iraq has stopped terrorism in the U.S. I thought you could think for yourself and didn't just regurgitate Repub talking points.

McCain aide says he's strong in 'real' Virginia

McCain aide says Republican nominee remains strong in 'real Virginia' away from Washington

(WOODBRIDGE, Va.) A top aide to John McCain (http://www.newsweek.com/related.aspx?subject=John+McCain) said Saturday the Republican presidential nominee still has a strong chance of winning the state because of his support in "real Virginia (http://www.newsweek.com/related.aspx?subject=Virginia)," the downstate areas far removed in distance and political philosophy from the more liberal northern part of the state.


"As a proud resident of Oakton, Va., I can tell you that the Democrats have just come in from the District of Columbia and moved into northern Virginia (http://www.newsweek.com/related.aspx?subject=Northern+Virginia)," McCain senior adviser Nancy Pfotenhauer said on MSNBC. "And that's really what you see there. But the rest of the state, real Virginia, if you will, I think will be very responsive to Sen. McCain's message."


Program host Kevin Corke asked Pfotenhauer if she wanted to retract the comment, prompting her to reply, "I mean 'real Virginia' because northern Virginia is where I've always been, but 'real Virginia' I take to be the — this part of the state that is more Southern in nature, if you will. Northern Virginia is really metro D.C.".......
