What do you think was the best quote from Palin's speech?

Question

Imo it was "Being a mayor of a small city is a lot like being a community organizer, only you actually have responsibilities."

Answer 1

In regards to Senator Obama being a community organizer:

"And since our opponents in this presidential election seem to look down on that experience, let me explain to them what the job involves. I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a 'community organizer,' except that you have actual responsibilities."  

Answer 2

She arrived on the Political scene with exactly what we can expect from her and her party

A BLATANT LIE

She brags how she said THANKS but NO THANKS to the federal money for the Bridge to Nowhere

BUT

Her entire 2006 Gubernatorial campaign was run telling the people of Alaska

I'll get you THAT bridge

If this is the kind of "Straight Talk" we can expect from these "new" type republicans

IT SOUNDS LIKE THE SAME STRAIGHT TALK NIXON chirped !!

Answer 3

I think that once you commit to being a community organizer you have real responsibilities. I also like it when she talked about clinging to religion and guns which is just a quote from a book called "what is the matter with Kansas"  

Answer 4

This scared me because it lays the groundwork for the next war, is hypocritical, and is setting Alaska up to hand over it's resources. Alaska  is not a bottomless reserve of energy:

"With Russia wanting to control a vital pipeline in the Caucasus, and to divide and intimidate our European allies by using energy as a weapon, we cannot leave ourselves at the mercy of foreign suppliers.

To confront the threat that Iran might seek to cut off nearly a fifth of world energy supplies ... or that terrorists might strike again at the Abqaiq facility in Saudi Arabia ... or that Venezuela might shut off its oil deliveries ... we Americans need to produce more of our own oil and gas.

And take it from a gal who knows the North Slope of Alaska: we've got lots of both."

Answer 5

"When the lights go down..............and the pillars go back to wherever they came from......."

Answer 6

And there is much to like and admire about our opponent.

But listening to him speak, it's easy to forget that this is a man who has authored two memoirs but not a single major law or reform - not even in the state senate.

This is a man who can give an entire speech about the wars America is fighting, and never use the word "victory" except when he's talking about his own campaign. But when the cloud of rhetoric has passed ... when the roar of the crowd fades away ... when the stadium lights go out, and those Styrofoam Greek columns are hauled back to some studio lot - what exactly is our opponent's plan? What does he actually seek to accomplish, after he's done turning back the waters and healing the planet? The answer is to make government bigger ... take more of your money ... give you more orders from Washington ... and to reduce the strength of America in a dangerous world. America needs more energy ... our opponent is against producing it.

Victory in Iraq is finally in sight ... he wants to forfeit.

Terrorist states are seeking nuclear weapons without delay ... he wants to meet them without preconditions.

Al Qaeda terrorists still plot to inflict catastrophic harm on America ... he's worried that someone won't read them their rights?

On potentially being offered the vice presidential nomination:

"As for that V.P. talk all the time, I'll tell you, I still can't answer that question until somebody answers for me, what is it exactly that the V.P. does every day?

Answer 14

Not  a thing. Just more negative attacks as usual.

Answer 15

I'm running a business with more employees than Wasilla, Alaska. I live in a city with more residents than the whole state of Alaska.  The police departments I ran before retiring from law enforcement were all larger than Wasilla's. I've been state president of two law enforcement organizations. I'm a veteran whose traveled all over the world a dozen times. Im a former intelligence officer. I have four college degrees. On paper I look pretty d**n good compared to Ms Wasilla. I guess I should be head of the FBI now, or maybe Homeland Security. But you know, the issue to me is judgement. McCain has none and Palin is a religious nutcase. I'm hoping for four years of relatively innocuous Obama compromising after which I hope the primaries produce better candidates next time, because Obama at least won't be four more years of Bush, while McSame will. And as David Letterman said Monday, if you want to be vice president, he'd like to know you had enough sense to have a five minute conversation with your teenage daughter about birth control. Theis "hockey mom" from Wasilla apparently believed that if her daughter was never exposed to a s*x ed class she'd never figure out how to fornicate. Anyone that stupid shouldn't be in charge of anything more important than picking a restaurant for lunch.

Answer 16

This is a man who can give an entire speech about the wars America is fighting, and never use the word "victory" except when he's talking about his own campaign.

Answer 17

She had me at "Hello."  I think her wink should count as a quote as well.  

"I'm sorry he doesn't think my town is Metropolitan enough."

... and yours was definitely awesome!

Answer 18

"The bridge to nowhere....No Thanks!"
