#1 Ahmadinejad is just the dummy. The ventriloquists are the ones with the long beards and soulless eyes. It will require much more than a JDAM or a well aimed shot.

#2 Great Speech - wish she whould have been able to make it but, as the comments stated, the Democrats threatened to take away the group's exempted status. I guess that is how the DNC shows support for its allies (Iran).

The only point I have is calling Ahmadinejad a 'dictator'. He is only a puppet controlled by the Supreme Counsel - they are the real dictators who pull the strings. Unlike Saddam - if we were to remove Ahmadinejad today - he would only be replaced with a different puppet.

Contrast Palin's support of Iranian women with NOW's complete and total silence.

#3 CF, everyone knows that NOW is only concerned with the rights of a very few, select women.

If you have other issues than "when will I be allowed to sit on a corporate board?" and "I need subsidized child care so I can concentrate on my important career....and I better not have to pay more than $5 a day for someone to watch my kids" (or, if you don't want to have kids, "I better be able to abort a child up to my delivery date,") they really can't be bothered.

#5 TW -- I saw that also -- questions came to my mind. Wonder if she is already setting the stage for 2012 campaign?

Alto -- it could have been a slap across to face to Hillary, since she had consented to be there, then pulled out when she found out Sarah was also speaking!

Can you hear Hillary saying, "How dare her to use my name in her speech!"

#6 TW, i think those words were of a statesman, er, statesperson if you will and from one that is not worried about partisanship. statemanship is something that has been missing in our politics for far too long.

#7 Sarah Palin sounds like she has plenty of savvy concerning international politics--far more enlightened than BO or Biden. It is a shame that an idiot like Ahmahdinejad speaks in the U.S. at the UN and Palin was disinvited. Hillary could not rise above partisan politics. It is a shame Ahmadinejab spoke at Columbia but they didn't allow ROTC on campus. We should have arrested the little criminal and terrorist for seizing our embassy in 1979 as soon as he got off the plane.

#8 Well politically you can understand the Dem's dilemma. You just can't have Hillary on the same platform as Palin or it makes it look like she's supporting her. So unfortunately the best interests of the country must take second place to partisan concerns.

#9 The speach is being published in newspapers around the world.

It just may have a greater impact than if she gave it at the rally.

Anyway, the whole incident pretty much wipes out any good feelings about Hillery that I had developed based on the treatment she had been receiving from the Democratic party.

She and It deserve each other.

#10 Makes it 'difficult' to dump Biden and replace with Ms. Clinton, too.

Dumping Biden is still on the table, as I understand from a couple of Dem Beltway folks I know.

#11 Hillary couldn't allow Sarah Palin to share a stage with her. It would show the Nation how much more energy and Can Do attitude Sarah Palin has then Hillary. It would also undermine Hillary's message that people need the Government to take care of them and provide for them. They can't do it alone, don't you understand.

#12 "Dumping Biden is still on the table, as I understand from a couple of Dem Beltway folks I know."

Speaking of dumping, Richard, I just received the following e-mail forwarded from a friend:

"Biden Is Out

The following is from a source that has been correct on wild rumors like this on 4 out of 7 occasions.

On or about October 5th, Biden will excuse himself from the ticket, citing ?health problems?, and he will be replaced by Hillary. This is timed to occur after the VP debate on 10/2.

There have been talks all weekend about how to proceed with this information. Generally, the feeling is that we should all go ahead and get it out there to as many blog sites and personal email lists as is possible. I have already seen a few short blurbs about this. The ?health problem? cited in those articles was an aneurysm. Probably many of you have heard the same rumblings.

However, at this point, with this information from the DNC, it looks like this Obama strategy will be a go. Therefore, it seems that the best strategy is to get out in front of this Obama maneuver, spell it out in detail, and thereby expose it for the grand manipulation that it is.

So, let's start mixing this one up and cut the Obamites off at the pass. Send this information out to as many people as you can and post it on every website and blog that you can access.

Editor's Note: I've heard this from several sources. Biden is a loose cannon and an amazingly poor choice for VP. Hussein's hatred for Hillary will be trumped by his sponsor's (Soros and gang) rabid desire to hijack America."

Dunno his "source" (and he probably sent it as a joke), but I responded that Hill wouldn't take it because it screws her last chance to run in 2012.

And anyway, I thought Biden's "health problem" was going to be infected hair plugs. ;-p

#13 Palin on Ahmadinejad: 'He Must Be Stopped'

ed: Ahmadinejad is just the dummy. The ventriloquists are the ones with the long beards and soulless eyes. It will require much more than a JDAM or a well aimed shot.

I'd like to dump the A$$atollahs and Mahmoud AhmadiNutJob into the Alaskan Wilderness for a month along with Ted Neugent and Sarah Palin.

Of course Ted and Sarah would have to be willing..

..each team gets one Rifle & ammo and an 8 inch knife.

Losers get eaten by Brown Bears.

#14 Thanks for the update Barbara.

The October 5th date (heard this before from a couple other folks) puts it on the weekend after the debate (Thursday the 2nd). Let's see, he falls ill on Thursday night or Friday (blood pressure?, stress?), hospital on Saturday and pulls out of the race by Sunday, just in time for everyone to feel sorry for him and welcome the 'exciting new choice' on the talk shows. The Dems would get a 4-week period for 'explanations', etc. plus an 'excitement bounce' out of this, putting them in fair shape for the Tuesday of the 5th week (Nov. 4). Don't laugh, these folks are 'masters of timing'.

For real drama, he could have a 'seizure' Thursday night during the debate.

Keeping in mind that Sen. Clinton was supposed to be sharing the stage with Gov. Palin.

This demonstrates a level of bipartisan respect and personal class that Palin carries that drives her enemies completely mad.
