Black Republicans: Palin ‘no longer fit to lead’

Palin: I quit Alaska governorship so that ‘obstructionists wouldn’t win’

Sarah Palin’s passionate and repeated defense of talk show host Dr. Laura shows the former Alaska governor and vice presidential candidate is “no longer fit to lead,” prominent black conservatives say.

The Daily Beast’s John Avlon interviewed black leaders in the Republican Party and conservative movement and found few willing to back Palin’s defense of Laura Schlessinger, who announced this week she would be ending her long-running radio show after using the “n-word” 11 times during a debate with a caller.

Michel Faulkner, a Republican challenging House Rep. Charlie Rangel in this fall’s election, told Avlon: “Why Sarah Palin feels she needs to join in to Dr. Laura’s personal meltdown is beyond me. She’s sounding like she just likes to hear her own voice—and the voice that she has is no longer credible. It says that a leading voice among conservatives has joined the ranks of the entertainers—trying to shock us each day with more and more outlandish commentary. And at that moment that person is no longer fit to lead.”

The anger at Palin coming from black conservatives led Avlon to conclude that Palin “might finally have gone too far and picked a fight she cannot win.”

Palin sent out a series of Tweets earlier this week, urging Dr. Laura not to be silenced by the anger over her comments. “Don’t retreat … reload!” Palin urged Schlessinger.

“Lady, are you kidding me?” Faulkner asked. “That is scary language in anyone’s terminology. Sarah Palin scares me.”

Conservative columnist Deroy Murdock “took an even harder line” with Palin, the Daily Beast reports:

Sarah Palin’s tweets resemble something scribbled by a ninth-grade cheerleader. Is it asking too much for a reputed American political leader to communicate in complete sentences? Palin’s gravitas gap is growing into the Gravitas Canyon,” said the media fellow at the Hoover Institution on War, Revolution and Peace at Stanford University. “Even worse, she deploys her vacuity to defend an acerbic talk-show host who just detonated herself by tossing around the word ‘ni**er’ on the air 11 times, as if it were a volleyball. The American right can do better than this. And it must.

California tea partier Joe Hicks disputed Palin’s assertion Schlessinger’s First Amendment Rights “ceased to exist” over the controversy.

First Amendment rights? Of course. But [Dr. Laura] wasn’t fired—she decided to drop her show. So I’m not exactly understanding what Sarah Palin’s understanding of the Constitution is here. And it isn’t completely out of character, which is very unfortunate. She keeps dropping this bizarre stuff … It says this woman really has no larger vision of what she is trying to do in a political sense—there’s a pretty narrow intellect at work here … Attempting to defend the indefensible is just kind of insulting.

Palin, for her part, continued to defend Dr. Laura in Facebook postings this week.

“Does anyone seriously believe that Dr. Laura Schlessinger is a racist? Anyone, I mean, who isn’t already accusing all conservatives, Republicans, Tea Party Americans, etc., etc., etc. of being racists?” she wrote.

Palin went on to equate her own struggles with media and public opinion to Dr. Laura’s and even suggested that her heavily criticized decision to quit the Alaska governorship was a result of an effort by Palin’s political opponents “to silence those with whom they disagree.”

I learned this valuable lesson when the partisan obstructionists in my state tried to shackle, bankrupt, and destroy my family and supporters, and my record, with endless frivolous litigation when I returned from the Vice Presidential campaign trail. In order to shake off the shackles they wanted to paralyze us with, I handed the reins to another, much like Dr. Laura is doing, so that these obstructionists who hated a Commonsense Conservative agenda wouldn’t win.

    Palin was NEVER fit to lead, probably secretly realized it and fortunately quit the governorship early. Combine her transferring from the University of Hawaii because she was no longer in the white majority, her “Sambo beat the b**ch” quote about Obama in the 2008 primary and this stupid defense of Dr. Laura’s racist rant and … well … what black AMERICAN could ever think she has the smarts to lead anyone?

    So let me get this right: She quit the office so that the people who wanted her out of the office wouldn’t win? Okay, makes perfect sense in idiot land, I’m sure.

    Well, this shows that SOME republicans are in the “can fool me SOME of the time” crowd, unlike the rest, who are in the “You can fool me ALL of the time” group. SOME of them finally get that she is NOT a political leader, she is a brain dead bimbo who uses her passable looks to get what she wants. If republicans were so freaking smart, they would have seen this as soon as the rest of us did. The fact that it took them THIS long is proof of just how little intellect there actually is on the conservative side. They sure aren’t good judges of character.

    But hey, Sarah, stick around until you piss off the REST of your supporters. You’re already costing your endorsees their chances in primary elections, I suspect you can do the same for the rest of the republican party if you really try. Please do.

By dutifully serving as the “black people who will say what we can’t say because we’ll be called racist”, they themselves encouraged the attitudes displayed by “Dr. Laura” and Palin. And now, they want to get upset? Nah. Uh uh. They don’t have the moral authority to get upset about it.

    I beg to differ, she’s entirely the correct demagogue to lead the angry, ignorant, bigots who have coalesced around her and her ilk. This has always been the danger of the Tea Party movement and it’s now leading to it’s inevitable conclusion. The Republicans who’ve tried to nudge and control this monster and now it’s gobbling everyone and everything that is ugly and wrong with this country to feed it. It’s true that she isn’t fit to be a leader in office and it’s equally true that she isn’t as sharp as she should be, but then those standards aren’t exactly necessary for the role she’s found herself in. Congratulations Republican Party, this beauty queen is all yours.

She already is a defender of all things Israel, wheter it be siding with the Likuds on influencing the US to bomb Iran, or turning a blind eye to the Israeli concetration camp,know as the Gaza. Pres. Palin will give AIPAC complete control of our government.

    Governor Palin talks to the Lord so leave her and Dr. Laura alone.

    **Sarah Palin was one of the first members of Glazier’s spiritual warfare prayer circle in Wasilla. According to Glazier, while Palin prayed with her during the early 1990s, “God began to speak to [her] about entering politics.” With Glazier’s encouragement, Palin joined other members of the Wasilla Assembly of God in a takeover of Wasilla’s government. In 1994, Palin won election to the Wasilla City Council and the local hospital board, a victory that resulted in the ousting of her mother-in-law, Faye Palin. During the first meeting of the new Dominionist-dominated hospital board, Palin and her allies passed a resolution (later overturned by the state Supreme Court) banning abortion in all circumstances, including when the life of the mother was in mortal danger.

    While Palin served on the Wasilla City Council, a Democrat named Nick Carney befriended her and showed her the ropes. However, when Palin announced her 1996 bid for mayor against Carney, she launched a vicious campaign against her former friend, spewing character attacks utterly foreign to the Mayberry Junction-like atmosphere of Wasilla. “I watched that campaign unfold, bringing a level of slime our community hadn’t seen until then,” recalled Phil Munger, a local music teacher.**

I would love to jump Sarah Palin’s bones and pork her until she orgasms, she has a great body, but as a politician she is just another Zionist Jew toy. We need a revolution where the citizens throw the Zionists traitors out of Washington, try them for treason and shoot them to death by firing squad. America has been destroyed by these Zionist dog traitors. America will not recover from their treachery. Even the judges of our courts are guilty of treason. Hang them all.

    I have a place where I occasionally go to get killer ribs and fixins. Sometimes I’ll have blacks to the left of me using “the phrase.” To my right will be a table of black folks not only calling each other niggers, they’re calling each other MY Nigger.

The pieholers just don’t like to be contradicted; so, they insist they are being suppressed. They are not being suppressed, they are being introduced to reality. It’s time for them to grow up.

    Irroneous statement. He is assuming she was once fit to lead. She wasnt. Her husband Toad would be our real president. A secessionist

    SHOCKER: THERE ARE BLACK REPUBLICANS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Ha! Good one. All this amassing of agonized alliteration tips it off as a joke! And, Palin and her supporters don’t possess this level of vocabulary.

    Do you mean “still black Republicans,” because before FDR, the majority of black voters were Republican. Remember, Lincoln not only issued the Emancipation Proclamation and won the Civil War, defeating the Confederacy, but Ulysses S. Grant, another Republican, carried out Reconstruction. (Yet another Republican, Rutherford Hayes, killed it to appease the South and get into office.)

    I agree that since Reagan and Bush I, you’d have to be a bit bonkers to be a black Republican, but some of them do profit merrily from it. Just look at the grossly incompetent buffoon and hanky-head Michael Steele!

    Mama Grifter is starting to do things that will affect her own bottom line, as she’s having trouble selling tickets to her high school teenager rants now.

    The “worst dude” had better put some controls on her before she ruins it for their idiot daughter. The only thing that painfully ignorant little sump has proven herself capable of is getting knocked up; beyond that, there doesn’t seem to be any “there” there.

    Or, to paraphrase the late Ricardo Montalban as Bela Legosi in “Ed Wood”: “She ain’t fit to eat my shit.”

    Maybe Sarah Palin is into bondage.

    Just sayin’……..

    It sounds as if she’s saying, essentially, “I quit so they couldn’t beat me.” There’s no common sense conservatism in that “logic.” It’s merely cowardice.

    These idiots would have loved to see Sarah Palin as Vice President. Probably wouldn’t have minded when Johnny Walnuts dropped over and she got sworn in as President either.

    But anyone with half a brain knew what she was – a screeching, idiot crook. And now that she’s turned her ugliness their way, suddenly they see it? Sarah Palin isn’t fit to lead all right. And these guys aren’t fit to vote.

    Sarah Palin has never been smart. Only hater would listen to this woman she has continually spoken out just because she can. Its really sad to think people wanted her or voted for her for any position. Come on Republican you can do better than a Sarah Palin.
