Do you think it's ironic that Repubs are making Palin into a celebrity more than Dems ever did w/Obama?

Question

They complained about making politicians into celebrities, yet they've been doing that more than anyone else with Palin!

Even Yahoo can't hide their bias with the title of their article on Palin after the debate!

"Palin delivers star-turning performance for GOP"

Are they being hypocrites again?

Answer 1

Yes they are and it is hypocritical. They don't want anyone criticizing her because they will call you a sexist.

Answer 2

Actually the liberal biased media have tried to make Obama out to be a Star- with none stop coverage of him for the last year.  They showed very little of the other candidates.  With his own Obama seal and the stage he had, well he has no problem thinking he is a 'superstar'.  Reality is the media was forced to show Palin's speech last night and well she was phenomenal- she mopped the floor with Obama last night.  She showed the media the truth over what they have been doing, will it make a difference well not to them but the public is well aware and that is all that matters.  

Answer 3

We are? Really? Wow, thanks for the update.  

Answer 4

Actually, it was the bashing that made her a star.  The American women were not up for that.

Have you ever wondered why so many OLD PEOPLE are Republicans.  It's because they have lived through years of Democratic Party "promises" and lies for years.

Democrats represent Labor Unions and Labor Unions ARE the Democratic Party.

Unions want more power because the Mafia Godfathers that run the unions have money funnelled to them through Earmarks, set-aside programs, and Government give-a-ways.

On the surface, Unionization sounds fantastic, but if you know the issues, you will realize why Dems raise taxes (for unions) and have SECRET earmarks (for unions)

Unions Cause Inflation because everything goes up in price when labor goes up & taxes too.

Unions cause Manufacturing to leave America - (they can't handle the taxes and the increased cost of labor)

Unions hate Corporations - (They don't get a piece of Corporations like they do get a piece of Government cheese.)

Unions are Pro-communist - They would love to have just a one party system and that is Communist.  You read about it, now you see how it works.

So smearing Republicans is a guise promoted by Union Hollywood, Liberal Union media, Union teachers, Union writers (newspapers, magazines, textbooks)

Republicans know this.  Democrats mostly believe in the "star" that the unions tapped to run for President.  If their Candidate doesn't behave - they die, like JFK. and Robt. Kennedy.

Long ago, Unions worked.  Now we have labor laws and restrictions.  Union thugs use to extort money from small business.  Unions are mafia, make no mistake.

Now that you know this, I invite you to join our party of Patriotism and against Communism.

Answer 5

If you are referring to Yahoo has a right-winger, you really are off-the-wall..lol  Palin is popular with the republicans...get over it. Your "more than anyone else" is laughable.  Palin will never be able to match the kind of hypnotic followers that Obama because the republicans know how to think for themselves.

Answer 6

I can see where the screen name comes from...The Liberal media has done nothing but make personal attacks Palin and every poll has concluded that there is in fact media bias. You forgot to mention that under the yahoo header this morning were numerous negative Palin stories.Thank your biased liberal media.

Answer 7

   The ONLY ones making a celebrity of Palin are the loose lipped, venomous and bitter Dems and Obama supporters.  Your the ones making ALL the fuss, drawing GREAT attention to her and making her even MORE touchable by the public.  I see her qualifications and experience exceeding both Obama AND Biden.  Truth is, BEFORE you "people" even had nay idea who Palin was, you were on the ATTACK.  Doesn't say much for you "people", but most of us have become used to toilet bowl attacks anyway.

   Did George Clooney raise the million for Obama ?  How about Michael Moore or Madonna ?  Maybe you need a few more GREAT Rap songs ?

   Nope.  Celebrity belongs solely to Obama..he's the entertainer.

Answer 8

No....at least there's reason to.....she's more than just a "community organizer"......

Answer 9

You sound scared.  Good.

Answer 10

Show mercy on them..She is the biggest thing to hit the trailer parks since sliced bread

Answer 11

There is a difference. Barry is a cultural celebrity. Palin is a politicle celebrity.

Answer 12

actually its the democrats making a big deal about her and her speeches

Answer 13

It's not republicans. It's the liberal media. She stole Obama's spotlight!

THE ERA OF OBAMANIA IS OVER!!!!

Answer 14

Really; wow, since when?

When did the media switch sides..............last night after they heard the speech that rocks America?

d**n tootin we are letting the world know

Come messin with our country

We have the pit bull to tear you a new arze hole

Answer 15

You're right.  Palin is being treated like a rockstar, and CNN has pictures of her signing autographs to adoring fans.

Answer 16

Its the media making a big fuss about Palin. Not the GOP. Obama made himself out to be a celebrity.

*TEAM MCCAIN!*

Answer 17

Republicans have always been hypocrites - I'm just glad it's being shown on a wide scale right now

POW / Soccer mom  08'! Forget about the economy!

Answer 18

I know! The gal gives one fair speech that didn't reveal anything new and now shes ready to be president?

"What is it that a VP does..."

Answer 19

should she do a tour in Europe...there is no comparison...your reaching for something to criticize Republicans about...so much for liberal tolerant open mindedness...who supports the working women...

Answer 20

No, I disagree.  

Answer 21

Obama is called a celebrity because he has ZERO leadership experience and somehow he's a presidential nominee because of his popularity and celeb status.  He has no executive experience, he's never ran a business or led a platoon.  He was a community organizer (?), state legislator and 1 term congressman.  He has very little life experience and he's already written 2 memoirs... This is all flash no substance... this is a celebrity.

Sarah Palin may be popular at the moment, as she should be.  She's a mother of 5, has a son in Iraq, a baby with down syndrome, was a genuine American who served ascended from PTA-mayor-governor of Alaska.  Palin is not even close to being a celebrity.... she is a GENUINE American.  Palin has the same flash and popularity as Obama, only difference being she is REAL and has the substance to go with it.

Answer 22

yes

Answer 23

Palin didn't speak in front of an open stadium in front of greek columns of the Barackropolis.

I hope that answers your question.  And speaking of hypocrites, didn't you used to be a Ron Paul supporter?  Why are you supporting Obama when he is against all of Paul's ideals?

Answer 24

Ironic? perhaps

Hypocritical? definitely

Surprising? not at all

Answer 25

What?? They said she had a good speech? Oh my...
