Sarah Palin blows kisses at Tea party political terrorist Ted Cruz and encourages him to keep attempting to destroy the country.

"Hey Cruz-y. Thinking of you."

Courtesy of Palin's ghostwriters and that defunct site over on the Right Wing of the internet:

Americans who are fed up with Obamacare won a victory yesterday. The House voted to defund Obamacare while still funding the federal government to avoid a “devastating” shutdown. (I shall not digress, but it’s beyond distressing to hear liberals try to convince Americans that any government slowdown is comparable to “terrorism.”) (Yes how dare the media identify terrorism as terrorism when it is not done by those brown Muslim types.)

Now the battle goes to the Senate, and we’ll find out if Harry Reid is so committed to the horrendous “Un-affordable Care Act” that he’ll be the one to shut down the government to fund the unworkable Obamacare. (This is the new Republican trope. That they are NOT the ones who will end up being blamed if the government shuts down, but that they can somehow lay the blame on Harry Reid and the President. That of course is ridiculous and in the end the Republicans will bear virtually all of the blame. Something that Sarah Palin could not possibly understand.)

Let’s be clear. Republicans in Congress aren't advocating a government shutdown. (See?) That’s why they voted in the House to fully fund our bureaucracy while defunding Obamacare. The conservatives in Congress are listening to the majority of Americans who do not want Obamacare. (The people only THINK they don't want Obamacare due to the smear tactics and ad buys used by the Koch brothers and their corporate cohorts. Once Americans start to access the ACA they will be of a much different opinion, which explains WHY the GOP is terrified to let it start implementation.)

Following the will of the people is apparently a novel idea in D.C. these days. Just ask Senator Ted Cruz and his liberty-loving posse on Capitol Hill who have led the charge to defund Obama’s train wreck. (And who better to recognize a train wreck?)

Those of us who hang in there supporting a major political party with our energy, time, and contributions would like to believe that that party would praise principled conservatives like Ted Cruz and Mike Lee for following through on campaign promises. We’d like to believe that the GOP establishment would applaud the way these bold leaders have rallied the grassroots to their cause. But, no, such praise would require a commensurate level of guts and leadership, and the permanent political class in D.C. is nothing if not gutless and rudderless. (Ahh calling the seasoned Republicans "gutless." I wonder how John McCain feels about his creature these days?)

We’re now, once again, subjected to the “anonymous sources” backstabbing game. The Capitol Hill cowards are rushing to anonymously denounce Senator Cruz to any reporter with a pad and pen. (Or as they are known more widely, politically savvy insiders who know that Cruz and his pals are about to destroy the Republic party from within, while doing untold damage to the country.)

Welcome to our world, Ted. The same people have been denouncing conservatives like me for years (right after they ask for help fundraising for themselves or endorsing the latest candidate they’ve suckered into paying their exorbitant consulting fees). We can compare shiv marks next time we meet, my friend. (The only thing conservative about Sarah Palin is the number of brain cells she uses while arguing her point.)

If the Senate doesn’t get behind Ted Cruz’s efforts to defund Obamacare, it won’t be because of any failure on Ted’s part. It’ll be because there weren’t enough principled leaders to stand with him, and that would be a tragic loss, not for Ted, but for America. (Yes how will America survive having politicians do the right thing for their constituents rather than to scream "Benghazi!" and throw a two year old style tantrum until the process in Washington grinds to a halt?)

More and more Americans are waking up to the nightmare of Obamacare as its rollout continues. Hardworking families are losing their employer-provided health care coverage. Businesses are cutting back their employees’ hours to skirt Obamacare’s mandates. Americans barely scrapping (I think this was supposed to be "scraping.")  by are discovering that Obamacare has made health care completely unaffordable. Those who aren’t part of a protected special interest group have been left in the cold. (Uh yeah, none of that is exactly true and once the law goes into effect, it will lower insurance premiums, provide far better coverage, and help businesses grow. And THAT is what the Republicans are afraid of!)

When you’re living on a fixed income, having to pay hundreds of dollars more each month for health care will cut into your ability to pay for basic necessities like food, electricity, or gas (which has increased 90% under Obama). Open your eyes, America. When the full reality of Obamacare strikes home, we’ll thank God that principled leaders like Ted Cruz and Mike Lee took a stand to stop it in its tracks. (Wanna bet?)

But the permanent political class is handwringing and howling that if there’s a government shutdown the media will blame Republicans for it. Here’s a little newsflash, GOP establishment: Whenever anything bad happens, the media blames Republicans for it. That’s not an excuse to roll over and play dead. (What a great idea! The public already hates the GOP so why not keep doing things to reinforce that hate, rather than do something to earn back respect? We could call this "The Palin Doctrine.") It’s a call to follow the advice I give my daughters: Woman up, stand your ground, and fight like a girl! (Refusing to cooperate, throwing tantrums when they don't get their way, and changing the subject when they start to lose and argument. I think they already ARE fighting like a girl. No offense ladies.)

I want no pity. I need no empathy. But use me as a barometer. Over the years, the leftwing media has falsely and irrationally accused me of everything from faking a pregnancy to abetting murder. They lie. Deal with it. ("Falsely?" "Irrationally?" I don't think those words mean what you think they mean.)

Republicans in Congress support funding the government. If the Democrats block these funding measures, a government shutdown is on them. In the meantime, stop the ridiculous hysterics. Heck, about the most significant thing that happened during the last government shutdown was Clinton hooked up with Monica. (Actually it made the Republicans look like petulant children, cost them seats in the next election, and helped smooth the way for Clinton's reelection bid. So in the words of our President, "Proceed gentlemen.")

As I said in my speech at CPAC this year, it’s time for the Senate to put itself on Cruz Control. (Jesus how many SarahPAC bucks did THAT line cost her?)

Ignore the peanut gallery pundits. They’ve written my political obituary so many times, I’m practically Lazarus. (Yes, if Lazarus had never been able to crawl all the way out of his grave and simply yelled unintelligible gibberish at passerby's from his hole in the ground. Or Facebook.) Now they’re trying to destroy Ted Cruz. Good luck with that, you weasels. Texans are just as tough as Alaskans. Smaller, but just as tough. 

But here’s the important thing that none of these establishment backstabbers understand. It’s not the messenger that matters. It’s the message. You can try to take out someone like Ted Cruz, but that won’t stop the message from catching fire. (A flaming message? Isn't that a Molotov Cocktail?)

The message is liberty, and it’s been resounding ever since a band of patriots dumped tea in Boston harbor. The message only grows stronger. The grassroots is bigger than any one person. We the People will rise up, and we will make our voices heard. Right now, Ted Cruz is speaking for us in this Obamacare fight. God bless him for it. 

Hang in there, Ted and Mike. You have millions of supporters among ordinary hardworking Americans. We support you because you don’t shy away from the fray. May your colleagues in the Senate gain the wisdom to support your excellent efforts so that you can see that the view is better from inside the bus than under it. (Yeah I think that Palin has confused the homeless guy in the back arguing with the empty seat in front of him with the driver of the bus.)

Oh, and a little reminder to Republican senators up for re-election in 2014: Moose season ends soon, allowing more time on one’s hands. So, we’ll be watching your votes very carefully this week. (That sounds like a veiled threat to shoot somebody, doesn't it?)

Some days I really hate my job. And this is one one of them.

Having to spend my morning wading through that ghostwritten sewage is not a job for the timid, or for a man with only one slipper (Where is that other slipper?) and only one cup of coffee to inspire him.

However if I don't write about Sarah Palin who will? (No seriously, who will?)

I think it is perfect that the Palin albatross has landed on the Ted Cruz ship of fools, as that is a sure indication that it is about to hit a political reef and sink into the inky blackness.

Of course this was all ghostwritten for her, though there was certainly a lot of Palin in there. ("Faking a pregnancy." "Abetting murder." That last one is just her way of picking at the never quite ready to heal Gabby Giffords scab.)

However after all is said and done Obamacare WILL move forward, and like Medicare it will soon seem to be an indispensable part of American life. And Ted Cruz will join the ranks of radical firebrands like Jesse Helms, Joe McCarthy, and that famous Republican Adolph Hitler.

And Sarah Palin will be remembered, much like Lazarus, as a moldering corpse who stumbled around among the living, not realizing that they were only stinking up the place and looking more decayed with every public appearance.
