Sarah Palin declared at a fundraiser in North Carolina yesterday that she loved to visit the "pro-America" areas of the country, which begs the question of what parts of the U.S. she views as anti-America.

The McCain campaign is seeking to clarify a remark reported from a Sarah Palin fundraiser in North Carolina yesterday in which the Alaska Governor declared that she loved to visit the "pro-America" areas of the country -- implying, implicitly, that there were some parts of the United States she viewed as not pro-America.

There are maps ...

www.electoral-vote.com

... that will help Ms. Palin. There's a little stretch running north south from Canada (Idaho) to Mexico (Texas) that the Alaska Airhead might find palatable. Better hurry. herm

I don't see why any spin is necessary. My guess is that you'd find a lot more patriotic people per capita in small town America than in large cities.

"I don't see why any spin is necessary."

Of course you don't. You're as clueless as ever.


As long as she steers clear of the pro-intelligence parts of the country, she should be fine.

Tell me why pointing out that some areas of America have more patriotic citizens than others is newsworthy. Is she wrong?

That's not what she said, hack. Reading is fundamental.


......this from a woman whose state is connected to Canada's ass......

HERM is right - unusual I know, but alas it is true. The red states love America and the blue states love AmeriKa.

"Tell me why pointing out that some areas of America have more patriotic citizens than others is newsworthy. Is she wrong?"

Well...her barometer seems to be whether or not they vote Republican.

Is she right?

Is San Fran considered "pro-america"?

"her barometer seems to be whether or not they vote Republican."

Where do you get that from? Her quote was "We believe that the best of America is in these small towns that we get to visit, and in these wonderful little pockets of what I call the real America, being here with all of you hard working very patriotic, um, very, um, pro-America areas of this great nation." What does that have to do with equating patriotism with republicanism?

I wonder if these people are pro-America.

www.vermontrepublic.org

To people like Sarah Palin, the "real America" is where people like her. It's that simple. She is an idiot.

""We believe that the best of America is in these small towns that we get to visit, and in these wonderful little pockets of what I call the real America"

So it's merely a coincidence they vote Republican?

"very patriotic, um, very, um, pro-America areas of this great nation."

Well if one considers gaudy, self-conscious displays of nationalism as proving one is "pro-America" and those who don't indulge in flag waving as "anti-America" she might have a point.


Men (or women) in authority will always think that criticism of their policies is dangerous. They will always equate their policies with patriotism, and find criticism subversive. - Howard Steele Commager

If we are to have another contest in the near future of our national existence, I predict that the dividing line will not be Mason and Dixon's but between patriotism and intelligence on the one side, and superstition, ambition and ignorance on the other.- Ulysses S. Grant

"My country, right or wrong" is a thing that no patriot would think of saying, except in a desperate case. It is like saying, "My mother, drunk or sober." - Gilbert Keith Chesterton

In Dr. Johnson's famous dictionary patriotism is defined as the last resort of a scoundrel. With all due respect to an enlightened but inferior lexicographer, I beg to submit that it is the first. - Ambrose Bierce

He is a poor patriot whose patriotism does not enable him to understand how all men everywhere feel about their altars and their hearthstones, their flag and their fatherland.
Harry Emerson Fosdick

There are two Americas. One is the America of Lincoln and Adlai Stevenson; the other is the America of Teddy Roosevelt and the modern superpatriots. One is generous and humane, the other narrowly egotistical; one is self-critical, the other self-righteous; one is sensible, the other romantic; one is good-humored, the other solemn; one is inquiring, the other pontificating; one is moderate, the other filled with passionate intensity; one is judicious and the other arrogant in the use of great power.
J. William Fulbright, The Arrogance of Power (1966)

Patriotism is your conviction that this country is superior to all other countries because you were born in it.
George Bernard Shaw

The soul and substance of what customarily ranks as patriotism is moral cowardice and always has been.
Mark Twain


Many people confuse patriotism with nationalism. - Corky

While I find her implication that there are only "little pockets" of "real America", and the rest of America is NOT "very pro-America" distasteful, she is entitled to her opinion. If Sarah would like to continue to narrow the scope of potential supporters in this fashion, that is certainly her prerogative.


......and whose husband is an Anti-American separatist.......

One more:

Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip the citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is indeed a double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the mind. And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the blood boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need in seizing the rights of the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry, infused with fear and blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their rights unto the leader and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I have done. And I am Caesar.

Is San Fran considered "pro-america"?

Anyone?


How about Berkley?

Is Compton considered small town America?

"How about Berkley?"

If you define "pro-America" as wanting America to live up to its ideals, not engage in torture and imperialism abroad, treat its most impoverished citizens with dignity and respect, than Berkley is one of the pro-America cities in the country.

Chair -

Yes I saw your email.

I am still laughing.

I find San Francisco to be one of the greatest cities in America and it's full of great people and things, in my experience, so I'd call it very American.

Why don't you add blaming America first and always for all of the world's ills.

How about smearing the US military at every opportunity.

I could go on, but hopefully you get my point.

I agree that San Francisco is an outstanding city. I also think that the phrase "I hate America" has probably been uttered there more than, say, Green Bay, Wisconsin.

On the other hand if you define "pro-America" cities as those populated by flag-waving, gun-toting, bible-thumpers who hate furreigners, minorities and pointy headed intellectuals, than Palin may have a point.

"the phrase "I hate America" has probably been uttered there more than, say, Green Bay, Wisconsin."

So telling the truth about AMericans very very bad behavior is ANti AMerican?? Who knew.

Telling it like it is about the Military's bad behavior is now ANti AMerican?? Whyo knew.

Translation: Those who don't bend over for the Republican Right is UnAmerican and AntiAmerican. Unfuckingbelieveable.

I'd call it very American.

I dont get it at all. Recognizing a nations faults and striving for it to do better is the essence of patriotism

blindly following your nation right or wrong is not patriotism but sheep like mentality

THEY SHALL GROW NOT OLD
AS WE THAT ARE LEFT GROW OLD
AGE SHALL NOT WEARY THEM
NOR THE YEARS CONDEMN
AT THE GOING DOWN OF THE SUN,
AND IN THE MORNING:
WE SHALL REMEMBER THEM.

What a bunch of horseshit!! Areas of the country where people do not vote "red" are more anti-American..or people who are against the war are anti-american.

I happen to think that shredding the constitution is anti-american and jailing people without a trial is anti-american and lying about why we need to go to war is anti-american. The funny thing is that the Founding Fathers of America thought the same thing. Just because we are not in lockstep with the Republican party does not mean that we are less patriotic than the goobers waving the flag who will follow blindly into war and financial recession

Why don't you add blaming America first and always for all of the world's ills.

#27 | Posted by JeffJ

It is never "blaming America first". It is blaming the government that has gotten us into the deep shit we are into. I don't even blame the the Americans that vote, for whatever party. People do not vote to be lied to or to be defrauded. It is the politicians who abuse the power we give them. It would be great to blame the quagmire in Iraq or the financial break-down on France (the country everyone loves to hate) but the sad truth is that it was our own representatives who did these things to us, the voters. These are the real America haters because it is they who put themselves first and not the country first.

Sarah Palin luffs Pro-America parts of US?

Translation: Sarah Palin likes people who are too dumb to figure out wot a divisive moron she is or how scary and regressive her policies are.

Scary Failin, like all too many Rtards out there, believes that to criticise America is to hate America.

Actually, as usual, she's got that ass-backwards.

People who are too timid to criticise the wrong headed policies of American politicians really aren't very American at all, they'd prolly be much more at home in the ole Soviet Block or in China where making such criticisms earn folk a one way trip to room 101.

Land of Free (as in Speech)

Home of Brave (as in Brave enuff to call BS)

It aint "My country right or wrong"

It's "My country when right to be kept right, when wrong to be put right"

Scary Failin is about as American as a gulag.

Be Well.

The right are quick to haul out the "Blame America First" meme because it distracts from the fact that they are the "Shame America First" crowd.

Tsk tsk, sez Spud.

Be Well.

"What a bunch of horseshit!! Areas of the country where people do not vote "red" are more anti-American..or people who are against the war are anti-american. "

Well I Guess Since She Left Alaska I She Sees Alot Of Pro America Places


Getting Away From The Alaska Independence Party

"My government is my worst enemy. I'm going to fight them with any means at hand."

This was former revolutionary terrorist Bill Ayers back in his old Weather Underground days, right? Imagine what Sarah Palin is going to do with this incendiary quote as she tears into Barack Obama this week.

Only one problem. The quote is from Joe Vogler, the raging anti-American who founded the Alaska Independence Party. Inconveniently for Palin, that's the very same secessionist party that her husband, Todd, belonged to for seven years and that she sent a shout-out to as Alaska governor earlier this year. ("Keep up the good work," Palin told AIP members. "And God bless you.")

AIP chairwoman Lynette Clark told me recently that Sarah Palin is her kind of gal. "She's Alaskan to the bone ... she sounds just like Joe Vogler."

Vogler's greatest moment of glory was to be his 1993 appearance before the United Nations to denounce United States "tyranny" before the entire world and to demand Alaska's freedom. The Alaska secessionist had persuaded the government of Iran to sponsor his anti-American harangue.

That's right ... Iran. The Islamic dictatorship. The taker of American hostages. The rogue nation that McCain and Palin have excoriated Obama for suggesting we diplomatically engage

Ah HERM. It's always easier to live of the sacrifice of others. You must have the easiest life of all. Typical lib - anti-military and pro-death.

Blue staters read 172.3443339402309540987% more books - but Dr. Seuss does not count HERM.

Just curious HERM - have you done anything successful in your life? I mean, besides leading babies to the slaughterhouse? No? Thought not.

This Campaign Must Be The First Time She Knows What It Means To Be An American !

"Palin's husband, Todd Palin, was a member of the party from 1995-2002"

The founder of the Alaska Independence Party -- a group that has been courted over the years by Sarah Palin, and one her husband was a member of for roughly seven years -- once professed his "hatred for the American government" and cursed the American flag as a "damn flag."

The AIP founder, Joe Vogler, made the comments in 1991, in an interview that's now housed at the Oral History Program in the Rasmuson Library at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks.

"The fires of hell are frozen glaciers compared to my hatred for the American government"
-Joe Vogler

"And I won't be buried under their damn flag," Vogler continued in the interview, which also touched on his disappointment with the American judicial system. "I'll be buried in Dawson. And when Alaska is an independent nation they can bring my bones home."

At another point, Volger advocated renouncing allegiance to the United States. In the course of denouncing Federal regulation over land, he said:

"And then you get mad. And you say, the hell with them. And you renounce allegiance, and you pledge your efforts, your effects, your honor, your life to Alaska."
-Joe Vogler

"What good fortune for those in power that the people do not think."

"Through clever and constant application of propaganda people can be made to see paradise as hell, and also the other way around, to consider the most wretched sort of life as paradise."
--Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, 1923

I am soooo sick of listening to Scary Failin (I like that Spud!)

She rants and rants trying to rile the emotions of the Lizard Brains in the crowd yet says NOTHING of substance.

I cannot wait until Obama lays waste to this BEACHA and her Freaky (I'm so proud of my Sarah) Mr Magoo!

Another crazy ass Republican plays the McCarthy card.

GOP Rep. Channels McCarthy: Obama "Very Anti-American," Congressional Witch Hunt Needed

"In an television appearance that outraged Democrats are already describing as Joseph McCarthy politics, Minnesota Rep. Michelle Bachmann claimed on Friday that Barack Obama and his wife Michelle held anti-American views and couldn't be trusted in the White House. She even called for the major newspapers of the country to investigate other members of Congress to "find out if they are pro-America or anti-America."

Appearing on MSNBC's Hardball, Bachmann went well off the reservation when it comes to leveling political charges against the Democratic nominee."

www.huffingtonpost.com

In about 2 1/2 weeks Palin can permanently go back to her small town and be with all those great people.

She sort of makes you miss Spiro Agnew, right Righties?

Pro-America=slavish devotion to GWB and anything white , Christian and conservative.

Wonder if she has a bullwhip and fire hose back in her closet.

YES! They are part of america and sometimes freedom means some partake in "freedoms" you may not like!

"How about smearing the US military at every opportunity."

Now tell us when the "military" came to represent all of "america"!

Your confused again! Just as you confused any honest look at bushs poor performance as "hate for america" or "blame america first"!

Pro America? Huh? The elections have already been decided long ago. The puppets are on stage and Obama was picked to win. Who is the person behind the red curtain pulling the strings?

Be careful who you vote for.

Ayers is anti-America.

ACLU is concerned with the rights of terrorists.

Animals have too much rights. And plants are getting rights too.

All the above are liberal leaning.

Animals have too much rights. And plants are getting rights too.

OK. Um.....just, never mind. You have a good weekend, dude.

I think Sarah meant to say those people are more vocal in their patriotism.

"And plants are getting rights too."

I love to eat meat, and vegetables are good for your health.

Even has his own press

This guy is as patriotic and loves the U.S. as much as Benedict Arnold

I give up on these fucktards.
There is nothing they can hear-except for the hate in their heads.
I have no use for them-or their kind,KBM, You, and takeitez are as unamerican as they come.
I hope you survive the civil war you are trying to start.
We will put you all on trial.

"Ayers is anti-America." Nonsense! Bill Ayers loves peace and his America, and demonstrated that forty years ago in a youthfully exuberant fashion.

"ACLU is concerned with the rights of terrorists." ACLU is concerned with EVERYONE's rights. NRA, Klan, Nazis and those you'd call "terrorists."

"Animals have too much rights. And plants are getting rights too." There is real anger as our resident rightie lists animals and plants and seems to ignore fetuses and spermatazoa.

"All the above are liberal leaning." All the above is rightie fantasy, much like The Cid's earlier ramblings, which simply defy interpretation and thus cannot be set straight. herm

so I didn't see Obama wearing a flag pin in all 3 debates, I didn't see him place his hand over his heart doing the pledge, then who was that I saw, his double? Stop your phony lies.

right wingers probably would like to exhume all those traitors buried in Punchbowl National Cemetary, at least half of whom were Democrats (including my Democrat brother who died for his country)

righties, take your phony patriotism and shove it!

"Obama friend photographed stomping on U.S. Flag." That, folks, after the man's skin color and middle name, is the best that the ever-waning apologists for Grandpa McPoopy can do in 2008. herm

Now can anyone on this blog say that elcidce90, JeffJ, 101 chairborne, Joe, BL2, nanc, Murphy, rex, Wisgod, cookfish, Takeitez, kerrin57, American1st, member2586, FWThom, mutt, jobama, anamerican, ride on, busyb, ACLUSux, theonebs, jestgetinalong, live or die, Salamandagator, homerj, stirsumup, Farmer John and lots of others will ever agree with liberal principles like abortion, gay marriage, affirmative action, the Supreme Court appointments, stem cell research, Iraq, Bush, Clinton, environment? No--this will keep on forever. We need to have two country's, and we need to split up peacefully before we split up in war.

I hope you are put in a concentration camp when the war starts. THE WAR FOR 2 AMERICAS!

It is thinking like that that will get millions of Americans killed by other Americans. The Civil War can be our future as well as our past. We need to face simple facts---there are millions of people like I mentioned above--they will never change. Neither will liberal thinking ever change. Both groups feel the other is holding them back from greatness. Neither can achieve greatness while attached to the other.

There is no need for bloodshed---just a simple facing facts and deciding the best future for us all.

I would say I speak for all those conservatives I mentioned above when I say that they would rather this election cycle had Romney vs McCain rather than Obama vs McCain.

I know I would rather see this election cycle be between Clinton and Obama, or Kucinich or Obama.

Two Americas. It is already true at heart. It might as well be true on the map.

agree that San Francisco is an outstanding city. I also think that the phrase "I hate America" has probably been uttered there more than, say, Green Bay, Wisconsin.

#2, Even if Palin wins, more and more good folks are realizing the sham patriotism she sells wouldn't make it into a script for one of those old GI Joe cartoons, being that it is so much cartoon bullshit, vomited out by the scoundrels Dr. Johnson spoke of, and used as swill to feed the silly people who think patriotism means looking out for number one, everyone else be damned, shutting down dissent, wearing flag pins, and cheering wrong-headed wars that needlessly cost American lives, strained our resources, and stained our reputation and all around karma. Don't think so? Palin is that karma

which begs the question of what parts of the U.S. she views as anti-America.

San Francisco
Portland
The upper west side of New York
Seattle

Those are just a few that come to mind. I'm sure there are more.

Just look at the cities where the comments of that Huff Post article come from.

Amazing how the Druge Retort posts a Huff piece for news worth commenting on.

Palin is the real anti-American because the people of America as a nation decide who and what is pro- and anti-American. Not her and not those chosen by her as the only ones fit to decide that.

Amazing how the Druge Retort posts a Huff piece for news worth commenting on.

It's all over the News tonight. Palin had to "clarify" her remarks. She caught heat over this, and rightly so.

I do have to thank the Republicans for giving the "rest" of America such a deep comedic vein.

There's no point in bothering with partisan hacks like you. You will call anything an "Obama network" if it reports any factual news story that makes Bush/McCain/Palin look bad. Dismissed.

Did you even notice that Obama had HIS flag pin on and McCain did NOT on the last debate?

And you have the nerve to even say this crap?

And really when did it become a measurement tool of someones patriotism to count how many times someone has a flag pin on.

This is a FAKE issue!

All of you are doing this country a disservice by trying to deflect feeble minded Americans like yourself from the REAL and serious issues that face us as a Nation.

"Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel." -- Samuel Johnson

Just left a right wing blog, many complained about Obama creating his own flag with "O" centered in a flag looking like an American flag. They showed a picture of him standing in front of this flag which was next to the US flag. They were very mad. This Obama flag was not patriotic!

The picure was taken during a speech in Ohio, behind Obama were both the American flag and the Ohio state flag with the "O".

very funny complaint!

Very funny indeed Onna. I guess that McCalamity is losing His last remaining brain cells. Time to call a Nursing Home. He could be the resident President of the old folks manor.

I noticed that, too. She also did it in the debate with Joe Biden.

Sarah suffers from a little known malady called Palindromeda Strain. Its symptoms include:

1. Believing that Abstinence only Education really does work.

2. Allowing yourself to beome a human incendiary
device on the campaign trail.

3. You think Meet the Press is a dry cleaners.

4. You beleive that Frazier v Ali is a landmark
Supreme Court decision.

5. You begin to name your children after courses
you heard about, but never took in high school.

6. You wonder why Joe and Rose Kennedy named
their son after an airport.

7. You think Harry Potter is a former Supreme
Court justice.

8. You think LBJ is a form of sodomy.

9. You believe the W in George W. Bush
stands for WOW.

10. You believe that if Richard Nixon had
thanked the House Judiciary Committee for
exonerating him, he would still be Prsident.

That Bachmann character, on one show,
blamed FDR for the current financial
crisis. Its one thing not to have any
shame. Its another to have no shame and
no brains. Who elects these morons?

Sarah's statement is actually a variation of Butthead's "I hate things that suck."

Dumb as hell.

The pin Sarah wears above her flag is probably a star for the kid she has helping her campaign in Iraq, and let's all hope he doesn't get killed before election day. I doubt that Sarah has ever "clarified" anything, or even knows what clarification means. herm

Sarah thinks the Achilles Heel is a new
product from Nike.

very funny complaint on the Ohio State Flag!
On the October 15 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, Bob Grant said: "[W]hat is that flag that Obama's been standing in front of that looks like an American flag, but instead of having the field of 50 stars representing the 50 states, there's a circle?" He then said: "Is the circle the 'O' for Obama? Is that what it is?" Grant later said: "[D]id you notice Obama is not content with just having several American flags, plain old American flags with the 50 states represented by 50 stars? He has the 'O' flag. And that's what that 'O' is. That's what that 'O' is for Obama."

That paragraph tells you all you need to know about what passes for a thought process among conservatives. They had no idea that was the Ohio State Flag!

"The less a politician amounts to, the more they love the flag."

The only part of the US she loves-is the part that wants to secede.
She is a traitor-constantly stirrin' up trouble-you think her rhetoric at these Nuremburg like rallies is for the good of the campaign?
Hell no-the piece of trash knows they're going to lose-and is trying to foment rebellion among the Great Unwashed.
Send the bitch to gitmo.
Send her to an Eastern European Ally that LOVES to torture-and get the truth out of her.
