Conservative crowd cheers when Palin mentions 9/11, Iraq
David Edwards and John Byrne
Published: Monday December 1, 2008

Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin charged through in Georgia today to campaign on behalf of incumbent Republican Sen. Saxby Chambliss, throwing off sparks among the political press corps and likening the Republican run-off candidate to her onetime running mate Sen. John McCain.

But perhaps more startling than Chambliss' decision to use Palin -- who was seen as having a deleterious effect on Sen. John McCain's campaign -- is the reaction of a crowd that greeted her in Georgia.

When she said, "fellow soldiers, they're down at Fort Benning graduating from boot camp and then on Sept. 11 beat the road to Iraq," the crowd cheered. Not at the word soldiers -- but at Sept. 11. Fort Benning is a military installation in western Georgia.

Palin asked Georgia Republicans to start the process of rebuilding the party by reelecting Chambliss. According to Palin, a Chambliss victory would mean that the Democrats' agenda would not pass unchallenged. "We need Saxby because we need checks and balances in Washington and we will not have that if Saxby is not reelected," she said.

1. Everything about her makes me want to puke...

I mean I truly get physically ill. She and her ilk terrify me.

[tridim]

2. It's just like that Family Guy episode where Lois figures out all she has to say..

is "Nine Eleven" and the crowd goes wild.

My guess is that this brand of fear-politics wont work any more.

[Ichingcarpenter]

34. LOL!!! Lois says: “Jesus” 911 and “terrorists”

That's right, terrorists. We have intelligence that suggests that... Hitler... is plotting... with, with the Legion of Doom... to assassinate Jesus. Using the lake as a base like 911

[onehandle]

3. "9/11 = Yay!"

You would think that the GOP holds up poster boards with this in front of the crowd to draw this reaction.

No. They're just that horrible. Especially here in Georgia.

[gauguin57]

4. Those people probably masturbate to videos of the towers falling.

Seriously. Yuck.

[Solly Mack]

5. I'm sure it's a character flaw on my part but...

I truly detest people that "911" every single thing to death. "911" - an excuse for everything..the reason for everything....it changed everything. 911..911..911..911...THWAP! Break yourself fool!

And those that cheer at such nationalistic pandering? A good smacking would do them the world of good...and even if it didn't help them any, it would pleasure me to no end.

I'm not fit for polite society.

[CrispyQ]

6. Go home Sarah.

Please. :eyes:

[Libertas1776]

8. The Devil Went Down to Georgia...

Yes they applaud and cheer at the very phrase "9/11" because like they say, 9/11 affected them equally if not more than those in NY, PA, or DC.
The citizens of the actual places that were attacked, the places where the heroes of 9/11 actually came from, are labeled as the "elitist" east coast liberal un-Americans, while the hicks and hillbillies in some Georgia backwater claim themselves the "real" America.
Yes, because after 9/11, Bin Laden was scolding his lieutenants for not flying a plane into Farmer Clampett's pig farm.

There is no red America, there is no blue America, there is only rational America and jerkwater America.

[merh]

33. Welcome to DU

I laughed out loud when I read your last line.

There is no red America, there is no blue America, there is only rational America and jerkwater America.

[louis-t]

9. Torch has been passed.

She'll carry on for Rudy.

[Aristus]

10. Yep, September 11th was a great day for conservatives.

3,000 murdered New Yorkers.

That's like a right-wing wet dream...

[aquart]

11. It was fascist Christmas. Gave them all they ever wanted.

[SpiralHawk]

12. "Hip Hip Hoooray for MIHOP !" - Republicon Homelanders

"9/11 gave us leverage to institute Republicon Fascism, and invade Iraq and TORTURE its people, even though Iraq had absolutely nothing to do with it. Smirk." - Republicon Homelanders

[stubtoe]

13. I believe this segment of society will become increasingly marginalized.

Still dangerous (see militias as an example), but marginalized nonetheless.

[Miss Chybil]

14. I don't know what that means.

"fellow soldiers, they're down at Fort Benning graduating from boot camp and then on Sept. 11 beat the road to Iraq,"

It doesn't make any sense.

[Capn Sunshine]

17. None of her stuff makes sense

it's a bunch of buzz words strung together in a loose stream of consciousness.

Certainly will enter the Palin pantheon of goofball remarks

[47of74]

15. She's a pig. Chambliss is a pig. The people who support her and Chambliss are pigs.

That's the nicest thing I can say about Caribou Barbie, Saxby Chambliss, and their supporters at this point.

[BlueGADawg]

16. This is why I cringe

anytime I have to go OTP (outside the perimeter)of Atlanta... it's like stepping back in time 100 years as far as folks attitudes go.

[Frisbee]

18. How much...

did his campaign allot her for a new "campaign wardrobe"? :rofl:

[Wednesdays]

19. Didn't her 15 minutes end, like, four weeks ago?

I mean, seriously.

[Acadia Blue]

21. Everytime she is on TV I switch channels. She is repelling.

[Acadia Blue]

20. She supports Saxby, a chicken hawk, while her own son is in

Iraq. The dumber than Alaska dirt c----t does not even realize that what she is doing is against her son's service.
Saxby Chambliss is a chicken hawk who smearned a real war heor, Max Clelland, with dirty had morphing him into Osama.
Palin, is republicon pain.

[bobthedrummer]

22. There are no words left for me when it comes to Sister Sarah...

:puke: :bounce: :mad: :puke: :crazy: :puke: :argh:

[SoCalDem]

23. Of course they did... they are bloodthirsty mobs..

[sabra]

24. they did the same thing @ the RNC - Keith O was quite pissed when it happened

[NOW tense]

25. woo hoo 911

they are probably remembering the good times for GOP when they rode that to the bank.

[Kalyke]

26. Umm, "fellow" soldiers?

Neither she not certainly Saxby Chambliss were ever soldiers. What's this "fellow" crap?

[Posteritatis]

32. She probably thinks having to answer reporters' questions

...is a trauma similar to being in a firefight in Basra or something.

(I actually have seen people claiming that she has it worse than folks on the ground over there.)

(ed. - me grammar am good)

[spanone]

27. she's one sick, dangerous puppy

[FloridaJudy]

28. This is a woman

Who needs "to spend more time with her family". I'm serious: they're a mess. Sarah, go home. We'll even let you keep the friggin' clothes if it'll get you out of our faces.

[iamthebandfanman]

29. why wouldnt they?

its the complete basis of all their policies..
BE AFRAID! LIVE IN FEAR! SOMEONES OUT TO GET YA!

[glitch]

30. Not surprising since their fearless leader made a joke out of searching for WMDs and they laughed

and laughed and laughed.

It's a zombie thing, we'll never get it.

[kenny blankenship]

35. It was the best thing that ever happened to them.

Or more accurately it happened to someone else, people they generally hated in fact. Nevertheless nothing has made them happier before or since.

[Ilsa]

36. Little does Palin realize that Saxby would bury her son in shit,

even if Track was disabled from war wounds, just to get a few more votes.

[samsingh]

37. so repugs cheer an attack on the US. they are traitors.

[mitchum]

38. Georgia LOVES losers...they carved three of them onto a mountainside

Stands to reason that they would embrace that stupid pig

[tabbycat31]

39. did she remember to place a noun and a verb in there too?

cause if she did not, she's even more of a moron than I thought.
