Sarah Palin Book 'America By Heart' Hits Obama, Defends Actions (ADVANCE EXCERPTS)

Sarah Palin Book 'America By Heart' Hits Obama, Defends Actions (ADVANCE EXCERP
TS)


THE HISTORY MAKER: Of course, had the President not made his history, she would have no history. She and the GOP should be grateful to him for that. It is because of him that certain sectors of society have begun to stockpile more guns by whites, set up more militia groups by whites, and gather many ducks in a row in the hopes that he would be no more by now - literally.


COMMITTED MOTHER: Yes, you know her models are Juno and Knocked-Up. It must be admitted, they have come a very long way. There was a time when even TV was an abomination and youngsters or anyone else were sentenced to that dreadful Hell fire if they slipped and fell short of the Grace of God.


Oh no, This is said to be a Glenn Beck sound-alike. Those quotes I suggest will only be the ones she espouses to be like her and her circle. Any others they will endeavor to discredit by hook or crook, stealth even.


THINGS HE SAID IN HIS 2008 ACCEPTANCE SPEECH: I whole-heartedly agree with the words of the then President-elect. That said, I suggest that we give up on ourselves or our ideas and ideals too readily when we feel stymied. Predators can smell that and pounce on it. In reality we are our saviors (and I do not mean in the same way of course as ST. JOHN 3:16 means it). I deem her and anyone else like her QUASI-religious.


Now I'm going to paraphrase Scripture very spiritually and mean it: The Master Jesus said to the 38-year paraplegic rise up, take up his bed, and WALK to his house. In another place he said well people don't need a doctor, sick people do. The physician was told (each individual) to heal himself. That is to say if anything is worth it, never give up on it no matter how feeble it seems. It's only an appearance trying to scare the feeble-minded, which is easy because their immunity is low anyway.


SARA PALIN ACCUSES THE PRESIDENT OF: I suggest there is "a narcissism" running through her party as well as her head. For her to cipher the idea of narcissism out of those words is astounding. There is so much truth in those words the President-elect spoke that some could become uneasy about them because 1) they could feel he exaggerates our worth and therefore won't own that for fear of getting "the big head," or 2) they are afraid of displeasing God not understanding who God is or what he believe about us and tries to teach us about ourselves. But God's teaching is able to make grown-ups of those who strive to "walk" those Principles, and children are easier to manipulate whereas maturity cannot be. Children are loyal and faithful no matter how ugly, mean, and unworthy parents might be unless they break them, whereby they might become psychos and every other kind of ILL WIND.


SLY IS AS SLY DOES: The only practices that should be "antithetical" to American values" should be injustice and all its friends. All the injustices done against the poor in favor of the rich are or should be anti-Spiritual values, since they are anti-Spiritual, -moral, -ethical, and every other synonymous expletives. The ugliness of trying to pass oneself off as truly religious is a travesty. Yet we are told what TRUE RELIGION is, and that is NOT overall an American value, no matter how much these same types of people try to pass this country off as a Christian nation or Nation for Christians.


This oil and vinegar do not mix. If anyone of those who tout that they are so much more Christian than another, James (NT) can tell them what TRUE RELIGION IS: he defined it for us. We cannot do that if we are not for the aid of anyone BUT THE RICH whose only need is to get richer. He had a warning for the rich - the ones in this subject. But they don't care about that; it wipes right off like dirt from the bottom of a shoe.


A SAVIOR: The president never asserted to be anyone's savior, but a hopeful catalyst for change or rather the change agent or agent of change. Therefore, he never "supposedly promised" to be anyone's Jesus Christ, that would be beneath him being the intelligent man that he is. Well, at least she calls him a "wealth re-distributor," not a SOCIALIST, Communist, or Natzi. She really describes herself because when it comes to slyness, she's the "sly practitioner."


Look back over her antics and tactics, and if one is not delusional, it shows clearly her shrewd, sly-fox aptitude. Now think what the implications of this would be for one who might be found stashed in the White House, which she has admittedly deemed dull or something, or very disenchanting next to roaming around in the wilds with the OTHER grizzlies, foxes, and snakes. She prefers that environment to that of the ELEGANT intelligence and beauty that must be at home in the White House, which is the White House itself.


Anyone who is rich and associates helping the less fortunate as a threat to our freedom is pulling the wool over the eyes of those kept in a trance of ignorance for this country's duration. They know if the people of America were to come into their own, they would not have a certain base of "the masses," whom they can manipulate into submission to whatever they put into words.


Also, unless I missed something, and I still have the videos (48 hours, 24 before, 24 after, the election), the President-Elect never mentioned our work was in heaven but here on earth. Nothing is hard in heaven; everything is hard down here or God would never have said it. He (the President) assured us that the work is hard and of long duration. "It won't be overnight," "it won't be easy" I think are some of his almost exact words. Palin and hers cater to gullible people, who allow them to feed them half-truths, innuendos, and outright lies while they hold their breath (a form of sorcery) till they say "Amen." Talk about NON-TRANSPARENCY.


OTHER QUASISMS. When I read this, I thought vividly about people who, in order to mean something to themselves, must somehow demean someone else. We see it in race relations from time immemorial, beginning in reality with Adam and Eve. If my self-esteem depended on my neighbor's lack of it, then my self-esteem is bogus, fraud, a non-entity. If by my acknowledging another's worth I belittle mine, then I never had it. If being able to say I'm sorry about a known wrong makes me less of a person, then I never was one to begin with. If admitting I made or make mistakes means I'm lowered in the eyes of the world, then the world is not WORTHY OF ME.


That could be possible, since in the Book of Hebrews people like some of us the Word said are too good for this world (meaning those who had already died in faith that you and I would be here this day, for example). Palin has a very upside down world view and mindset.


Condescending means the man (Mr. President) must have thought himself above and beyond the little Muslim men of the world, stepping down off his little off-white throne to share with them a shallow platitude he drummed up. No, I suggest. She and her type hate to admit what I just said above, to the point of outright denial hoping it be accepted. Further, I believe that is why they have set out to rewrite things they don't like and tell it their way (retrograde behavior). For example, there is their take on the Vietnam War. That writer set out to prove the Left was the perpetrator of whatever they don't like about the history of the Vietnam War.


I wager without money that they would never humble themselves to openly admit that mistakes and outright crimes have been made and maybe still are, against poor and/or illiterate minorities (remember Syphilis, for one?). They have come against any thing great people can admit. It takes greatness whether we believe it or not to admit its own faults that have hopefully been overcome. If we don't live in the Dark Ages anymore, we should not want to keep up some of its dastardly practices.


Sarah Palin takes feigned offense about the perception of being equated to Nazi Germany during the divisions over the Arizona anti-immigration bill and its repercussions. I am stunned since they just love to ascribe all these names to the President and the administration. I never thought of MSNBC until after the election and heard the conservatives ranting about that media so much. Of course I never watched Fox either, so I didn't start after the election either. They mention that media so they must not have gotten favorable ratings from them. Therefore, she pouts.


"CULTURE CRITIC": The book is not out yet, but I can imagine the idiotic tirades she must have going on in it about the spiritually destitute liberals and possibly even their kids. She is in good company with her friend, Ann Coulter. They have such genius insight as to who is and who is not …. It is truly amazing how powerful they put the Left up to be if it can destroy Religion, which preceded the Left and the Right. But they consider progressives (which means forward, always forward, or it would not be progressive) as living in darkness. I wonder what type of light they live in, since it cannot be the Celestial Light. Progressives are in a terrible two-prong darkness: spiritually lost or spiritual denial. Oh, how I thank God he didn't put the safety of religion in their hands. No one would make it. They probably wouldn't even want to either.


The conservation mindset can be so obnoxious and deficient in all reason so much one hesitates to approach it. Case in point: America is a basket case of many religions, all of whose adherents go to some type of religious establishment. Let the conservatives tell it, only they go to church it seems, and all others don't, as if going to church is a mandate for being Spiritual. Some spiritual people don't frequent where they darken the door because THEY darken the door. "What fellowship does light have with darkness?" the Bible asks. Now that's a thought. Her stake in this culture war falls by its own stupidity. The demons go to church FAITHFULLY. It is not forbidden to them. Spiritually dead or lost people go to church with the Saints if any. They are not forbidden.


That is one of the most absurd statements she has uttered: "as alien beings, people who are "largely poor, uneducated and easy to command…." Thank goodness the majority of educators I believe recognize a higher power than themselves. They know they don't have to verify it with a conservative. No conservative is able to validate him/her self, let alone anyone else. Notice who the helpers of this world tend to be: WORLD EDUCATORS; doctors; some politicians since all are not false or corrupt; people in entertainment, those who have grown out of selfishness and see a needy world, thereby fulfilling their purposes in this world - helps of all kinds. These people are not recognized by conservatives except among themselves. And their names are NOT LEGION.


FEMINISM: The first false statement: where she gets her stats I don't know. She proves she is delusional. The majority of American women are not on the same par with Sarah Palin. The majority of American woman are not rich (MOSTLY WHITE) women, who could if they wanted to, have abortions in private or even help their girls abort (and the world would be none the wiser) and pass themselves off as Pro-lifers; or on the other hand, they could send their daughters off to have their babes in secret, then putting them up for adoption, again, no one the wiser. I can imagine their names are legion, they just don't tell it. Yet no secrets stay hid forever, Jesus promised.


The majority of American women, many of whom work minimum wage jobs, don't have the luxury that conservative women enjoy, not even the majority of poor conservative women. For example, just ask the Appalachian women what they do to make it through a day. Ask them how many times a month they frequent the hair and nail salons. Ask them how many nannies can they afford to take care of their kids as they frivolously waste time because they have it to waste. Ask them how many times they might pray to their God for help with putting food on their table. Their help does not come from big bank accounts. These among others are the majority of American women.


Whether they are liberal or conservative, they are not in Palin's camp. Palin has many choices she can make because she has the means. The majority of woman must choose between minimum choices. If the Palin ilk can receive this, it is the "other" women who had the biggest effect in affording them the rights they treat today as if they always had. The Nineteenth Amendment is not 100 years old, yet people like Palin treat it as if it always has been. The conservative woman did not get that right until the liberal woman got it - not before. If the conservative brain can receive, the majority of people in this country and mostly the world over, are liberal, by necessity if nothing else. They might not be able to admit it openly for many reasons. Also, liberal does not mean to one liberal woman what it might mean to another liberal woman. These pages prove the same is true of the conservative woman, except when they disagree on a thing, one or other is labeled as a LIBERAL, as if that might whip them into submission to the fold. Lord help.


ANOTHER OF HER FALSE STATEMENTS: the two black men she puts up before the world as examples of blacks not considering themselves as victims of racism. Another exaggerated half-truth and misstatement. First, neither of those two men are poor black men. They are men of means and/or status. Of course, they would not feel the chill and sting of racism as readily as a poor black or white man, or a poor black or white woman would. Money makes a change. It might not change a pig from being a pig, but it does enable that pig to live in a better pig sty, and frequent the exalted places other exalted pigs frequent. The insult is that she puts these two men in the same category as all black men. I said about injustice that it is unjust - this is a prime example of injustice in thought and perception.


I am a minority. I have lived with racism all of my life. Yet I am not a victim. I am a world citizen who suffers from the aspects of racism. When I was able to work, I suffered that everywhere I went as did other also. Whether it was in pay relations or anything else, it was there. People still suffer it today and work to overcome the negativism associated with it. Not only those who suffer it but those who do all they can to eliminate it where they can, which is also suffrage. They are many. Many, many have died in this country and over the globe combating racism - all were not black were they? Racism is the victim itself of the need to outgrow itself. As souls increase, it will decrease. Racism is a racist - against anyone it does not want to admit has as much a right to be on this planet as it does. When racism comes to terms with that, it will cease to be a tyrant in its entirety.

Geoffrey Dunn: Sarah Palin Slams Michelle Obama in Racially Charged Passage From New Book


(This of course will probably get axed but here goes:) A person must be versed by participation in the plight of the ages in human equalities/inequalities. He would possibly concede that no, Madam Obama's comments were not uttered as a racist or by racist attitudes, but rather as a pragmatic minority who is honest and in touch with her feelings. I suggest she is one who is above all sober in her way of thinking. Also, she is one who is not intimidated as some black people are by the sheer magnitude of this subject and their reactions to it. Some people don't get involved in overtly working for their own rights because they don't want the "hassle" of speaking the truth without fear of reprisal as slaves were when slaves were not free. Today we have free slaves who are still not free, mostly by choice. I suggest that is what people like Palin count on (subconsciously if nothing else). That is why so much is said about PATRIOTISM, as if only a certain sector of society can be patriotic.


If patriotism depended on the one-pointed view of some people, there never would have been any amendments to the Constitution initially or thereafter. Further, even the woman who is referenced would not be able to vote or have others vote for her. There are people who appreciate history because it is a good teacher for those who look for clear cold truth and not biased truth tainted with misperceptions and willful ignorance (which also can still be found in history books). This same tactic was used just after Michelle's and my families were emancipated and then freed by LAW, which law is still to this day needed and we know it.
When the rich and powerful lost their free labor among other things, the first thing they set out to do was to divide and conquer: POOR, RURAL WHITE PEOPLE AGAINST BLACK PEOPLE WHO HAD EVEN LESS. The aim was to set the black man up as the "poor white trash's" worst nightmare. That has not changed. I have found in my lifetime that the most prejudiced people are often some of the poorest. But having been born and reared in the country, I have of course seen both of these conditions. If people are honest today, they can see the outworkings of it. Some say this is the "German" in white people. I suggest it is the "history" in those who play that card that Sarah Palin is playing in this subject.


I also suggest that there are those who like to throw out that "card" under different disguises, who think others won't discern its true tincture or concoction. When some do not want others to work on race relations in any situation, they will accuse anyone they want, seeking to paralyze (a scorpion) with the sting of playing the race card. They use that card as if it were a Scrabble piece or a domino to be played at the opportune time. Sarah Palin plays it adeptly and subtly. For example, she and those like her will throw out the name of Rev. Wright in playing this card, as if just to mention his name will 1) make people cower in fear of being misunderstood, or worse than that, 2) make them just plain cowardly whereas they will slink back into corners they never crawled out of anyway.


Many years ago I read one history book, "BLACK RECONSTRUCTION IN AMERICA:  1860-1880," by WEB du Bois, in particular (among many others I read), which made me very aware of this subject, and appreciative of how white people have been manipulated as pawns against black people and other minorities (among others in those days: Jews, Chinese, and other white people even). The rich uses the poor and sometimes ignorant against the poor and sometimes ignorant. Yet I was determined because of two politicians in that book, that I would love the whole rainbow of colors for their sakes as well as that of Jesus. A real study of them made me deeply examine myself because I did not want to be like the prejudice I witnessed against my parents and everyone else like them. Yet nothing was breathed about it except in the safety of the heart or among "friends."
