Today's Larwyn's Linx sponsored by: Searching for Marizela: New videos, message from her parents

QOTD: "Barack Obama has bluntly declared that Qaddafi must go. The Libyan resistance, based in Benghazi, has appealed urgently for the imposition of a no-fly zone. Incredibly, the Arab League has endorsed the call, as has the Gulf Cooperation Council. France has recognized the rebel provisional government based in Benghazi as Libya’s legitimate government—while Obama studies this all. Can anyone remember a time when France and the Arab League were ahead of the United States on a question of defending freedom fighters?

...If Benghazi falls to Qaddafi, it will fall hard and bloodily, and the thud will be heard throughout the world. ... Time may be running out" --Larry Diamond, The New Republic

I find the Palin offering rather silly. The fashion was so overplayed on Mrs. Palin regretfully. This is someone who eagerly joined the Maverick Platform, which was nearly identical to the Democrats even calling for a mindless "cap and trade" swindle with massive taxation.

Today, the fashion amongst our own fine base somehow thinks Huckabee, who taxed and spent more than Clinton did in ARK over the same time period, who gave mindless pardons to dangerous criminals, is somehow a "conservative".

Mrs. Palin herself, provided massive tax increases for the Oil Industry and even created 'climate panel' bureaucracy in Alaska.

Her abandoning her sworn oath - the responsibilities as Governor has ruined her credibility even further.

Having Mrs. Palin lecture the GOP, is an obvious play on the fashion, which has been far from reasoned, serious, objective, savvy, empowering. It fits the foolish "Delaware Disaster", and is all so easy from the sidelines.

Boehner, Ryan, etc., are simply far more trustworthy at this point, and should be given a little chance - some fairness.

The reactionary fashion which is peddled on a daily basis by so many, simply is not sound conservatism. It is as if some want to lose, want to fail, and some are crying loudly simply for their own gain.

Sarah Palin seems to be able to offer a lot of judging, but cannot even engage in a challenging interview. It says a lot.

We better get it together as a team, offering sound, reasoned, constructive, serious, professional, patient, resolved efforts. For we simply cannot afford to enable the opposite Democratic Partisan disaster anymore.

Thank you.
