We need this fighter and advocate for women and innocent life in Washington!
I admire and respect the good folks supporting other candidates in this race, but we’ll have to disagree on this one. Lizbeth is running against a wealthy self-funded candidate with lots of splashy campaign ads claiming to be a conservative. Since when do conservatives stand for crony capitalism and government bailouts? Please do your homework, voters. Look beyond the fancy anonymous campaign ads. Look at a candidate’s record, not just their rhetoric. Lizbeth is a genuine conservative with a track record to prove it.
The "wealthy self-funded candidate" that Palin refers to is one Curt Clawson who is having some troubles of his own.
Clawson has a few notable endorsements of his own including local Tea Party favorite Byron Donalds and the Tea Party Express itself.
Of course Benacquisto has a number of fairly high profile endorsements of her own, besides Palin, including U.S. Reps. Mario Diaz-Balart, Tom Rooney and Jason Chaffetz; State Sen. Garrett Richter; Reps. Dane Eagle and Ray Rodrigues and Mayors John Sorey of Naples, Kevin Ruane of Sanibel, Randy Henderson of Fort Myers and Alan Mandel of Fort Myers Beach.
Which kind of makes her the safe bet for Palin, as she has a pretty good shot at the nomination.
Of course this being Florida, and the special election is to find a replacement for a seat formerly held by a Republican (Who as it turned out was arrested for cocaine possession.), if Beacquisto wins the nomination chances are good she will also win the election.
And that even though it appears that she violated Florida election laws a whopping 105 times.
But hey it's a Sarah Palin endorsee, what can you expect?
Well, I don't think it's accident that Nate Silver predicts a good fall for Republicans, and then Palin goes crazy with endorsements. She can't claim any kingmaker crown if she doesn't endorse anyone.
ReplyDeleteLooks like Ted Cruz fathered a daughter with Lizbeth.
ReplyDeleteGryphen, if you're going to call yourself a citizen journalist and attempt to adhere to the best practices and standards adopted by experienced. educated, certified and credentialed professional journalists all over the world and across this great country of hours, you better listen up and learn something right now, because there's one principle of journalism that you consistently fail at - yes, I said FAIL - and that is your extremely annoying and quite irritating habit of taking twice as many words to say the same thing as a more highly skilled journalist could say easily in half as many words and be three times as clear as what you said with 1/3 the economy!
ReplyDeleteI've been doing this a long time and if there's one thing I know, after all these years, believe you me, is brevity and the judgement it takes to ruthlessly expunge for your writing absolutely each and every unnecessary, superfluous or uneeded word in every single sentence that you find yourself in a position to sit down and write, whether it's personal correspondence, the great American novel, or a breaking story about some loud-mouthed grifter in Alaska, our 49th state and only state contiguous with Canada and the Arctic circle
Sorry to have to be so blunt with you, but sometimes you just go on and on and on and on and it takes you what may seem to some readers like forever to make the simplest point that could be said more simply, more economically, more concisely, with fewer words and with less time required by the today's reader who is very likely to be way too busy to plow thru your pointless verbosity and excess verbiage!
Here's a perfect example which proves my point and illustrates your flagrant violation and near total reckless disregard of good journalistic standards and practices:
"The Screechy Wretch(tm) is an politician endorsing fool these days."
DO YOU REALLY THINK I HAVE ALL DAY TO READ THIS HEADLINE???
Do yourself and the last few remaining deadenders to your defunct blog and cut out all but the essential words required to get your point across and communicate that point to your readers and anyone else who happens to read what you've written for them to read.
"The Screechy Wretch(tm) is a fool."
There.
I fixed it.
"Do yourself and the last few remaining deadenders to your defunct blog and cut out"
DeleteYeah, Beldar, you're one to give advice. Shouldn't that be "Do yourself and the last few remaining deadenders to your defunct blog a favor and cut out..."?
Beldar responds, "GROW UP! I'm pretty sure BJC isn't even actually your real name!"
Aw, that is a thing of beauty.
DeleteI'm afraid to say more.
Beldar, just a hint. Practice what you preach. Brevity is the soul of wit-- and comments.
DeleteBeldar, I think that your comment is long than the Gryphen's post.
DeleteBravo, Beldar! Bravo!
DeleteShort atention span at 3:45, leave Beldar alone you hear?!
DeleteUgh, 3:45.
DeleteIt's staring you right in the face.
Welcome to my parlor said the spider to the fly!
DeleteI'm certain Beldar's lack of brevity was on porpoise. He's also good at multitasking! (No porpoises nor marine mammals were hurt during this comment)
Her husband looks a little younger than she is.
ReplyDeleteShe's a Cougar! Grrrrr! LMAO
DeleteHighest foreheads in the county!
DeleteSarah Palin is endorsing these candidates by Facebook. Why doesn't she get SarahPAC to loosen their purse strings and give $5,000 to every candidate Sarah endorses on her Facebook? No way will give every candidate $5,000, SarahPAC needs their nickels and dimes to pay for SarahPAC salaries, fundraisers and stamps.
ReplyDelete"Sarah Palin is a politician endorsing fool these days."
ReplyDeleteSarah Palin is not a politician period.
Sarah Palin used to be a governor until she quit her commitment to the people of Alaska.
Bullshit she is a politician.
I said she endorsed politicians.
DeleteNot that she WAS a politician.
You're right Gryph. I stand corrected.
DeleteHyphens, G.
DeleteWhere's the father for this Christian family? Who gave that girl permission to borrow Sarah's boobs?
ReplyDeleteAlso, too, wanna bet there is NO money being sent to any of these people by SARAHPAC? I think they made their one donation for the quarter already. Missy Big Mouth thinks her 'endorsement' is worth gold...wonder how many curses she has thrown, and how many of them will want her around in person after her show fails next month.
She divorced her first hubby (Devout Catholic), the father of jethro and "boom boom", She remarried in 2011 and has a stepson, but I guess they a)don't count b)pug ugly c) camera shy.
DeleteAll the left has to do is list all of Palin whacked out Tea Baggers that got elected in 2010 and held American hostage for four years by doing nothing except trying to get rid of ACA and choke off abortion. Then run adds for each of Palin's new BBF's and say We don't need more of this crap!
ReplyDelete"Sarah Palin is a politician endorsing fool these days."
ReplyDeleteAgreed, as usual, but that's obvious. Sarah Palin is a fool regardless of whatever the hell she is doing.
She doesn't seem to have anything else to do. Her green screen readings have been recorded. Fox doesn't seem to be calling, and in the good old days, there used to be a full schedule of speeches for her to mangle.
DeleteSigh, I am so sick of hearing from Sarah Palin. When will we be rid of this idiot and her degenerate family?
ReplyDeleteGOP States Are The Most Dependent On Government
ReplyDelete...The states with elected officials most likely to espouse anti-taker sentiments -- i.e., Republican-dominated states -- are the most dependent on federal spending, while returning the least to Washington in the way of tax dollars.
That's according to the consumer finance site Wallet Hub, which crunched federal tax and spending data and then ranked states from most to least dependent on Uncle Sam. In the map below, green states are the least dependent, while red states -- appropriately -- are the most dependent.

Do Sarah's endorsements really make any difference? Tea Party people will vote for the most conservative Tea Party person on the ballot no matter what she says or does. If they belong to the Tea Party, the Tea Party is already telling them who to vote for. Would it matter if Newt or Rick or the other Rick endorsed someone? They are all idiots.
ReplyDeleteAgree with you. In my opinion, Sarah's endorsements impress only Sarah. I question if any of these candidates actually solicit her endorsement or if Palin just throws it out there, thinking she so influential and all.
DeleteQuitter Sarah is trying so hard to be "politically" relevant without spending any more funds than necessary from her PAC. After all, those funds were grifted for the sole benefit of Palin and her family.
Talk is cheap, especially Sarah's.
DeleteThe Sportsman Channel Left Plastic Surgery Scars of Sarah Palin in Promo Video, But Added Tanned Freckles to Photo
ReplyDeletehttp://frozenjustice.blogspot.com/2014/03/the-sportsman-channel-left-plastic.html
I didn't see any scars...but she is aging rapidly. She has the arms of a 60 year old. Seriously, who adds freckles? Doesn't she have freckles? or does she stand behind a screen when she spews her shit.
DeleteAnother great winner picked by Sarah
ReplyDeleteDonate to SarahPAC.
The above comment was made by a a visitor from Scottsdale using an iPhone. FUCK YOU, Sarah! Btw, Where's Trig's birth certificate you liar!
DeleteDonate to skankpac blah blah, Obama is a Kenyan, blah blah..Man you are BORING. Fuck off this blog already you freak.
DeleteGreat sarcasm @4:01pm!!!
DeleteAnother great winner:Lizbeth Benacquisto "broke election law 105 times, hiding special interest contributors."
"Look beyond the fancy anonymous campaign ads. " s. palin
Appears Sarah forgot to follow her own advice!!!!

4:01 PM Sarah Palin only picks the ones who already have a lead. You donate to GrifterPac to fund their vacations.
DeletePretending to be a politician with a servant's heart (who also presents herself as America's greatest patriot... never mind the address to the Alaskan secessionists to "keep up the good work") is the grifting scheme she and her employed flying monkeys have always adhered to. It is pulling in less and less but they will try to keep it going because there is nothing else. Fooling the rubes is how they line their pockets. Lying, cheating, and stealing is what they do.
ReplyDeleteThis person actually voted for Medicaid expansion and was a Democrat in her youth. I'm surprised that didn't disqualify her by Palin standards.
ReplyDeleteFunny how democrats are allowed the same faults, yet those faults are overlooked or accepted.
ReplyDeletesmh.
If Obama were republican, he'd be flipping burgers as he's never had a legitimately gained job on his OWN
Fuck. Off.
Delete6:46 PM
DeleteWhich one of Palin's flying monkeys are you?
Oh yawn.
Delete"If Obama were republican, he'd be flipping burgers as he's never had a legitimately gained job on his OWN"
Delete-----------------------
Congratulations, you win the stupidest comment of the dayaward. Does it hurt to be so ignorant?
You are one hideous, ugly-minded, idiotic person, you know that? There hasn't been a Democrat in the history of the party that was as stupid, venal and vicious as that walking sack of FAIL you call a leader, Sarah Palin. Barack Obama is a giant in world history and on the world stage, but Sarah will only be remembered as one of his haters, if she's remembered at all. She is NOTHING and she knows it deep down in her shriveled, black little heart. Ya'll need to quit hating on Obama, it's not HIS fault Sarah is a dumbfuck who can't do a goddamn thing right, now is it?
Deletego have your mommy change your diaper, pathetic one.
DeletePerfect Match. She's catholic, divorced, remarried in 2011, only includes her two spawn in photo and leaves out Hubby number 2 and stepson. Kinda like the opposite of Calista and Newtie. Why is she hiding hubby and stepson? Would boost her "Fam Values" creds. But you're right, Gryphen. This IS Florida and she's already got some great endorsements. Shame she let Sarah curse all that LMAO
ReplyDeleteWhat jobs do the Palin Family members have? Pimping and Grifting don't count. President Obama has more education than the entire Heath/Palin KKKlan. Betcha when his term is over, he won't be doing Reality Shows like the Uneducated Palins. President Obama earned his title, Sarah Palin stole hers. Quitters don't qualify to tell others how to live and 'raise' a family. The Dysfunctional Palins are overcrowded with Unwed Mothers, Drug addicts, Pimps, and High School Dropouts. Good luck trying to make them look like model citizens.
ReplyDeleteAmen brother (or sister)
DeleteI am a smowbird in Fl right now and this race is one of the dirtiest I have ever seen. It seems as though Clawsen is actually the tea party favorite rather than Benacquisto who is maybe the favorite of traditional R's. There is a doctor in the race who may be wealthy and then there is a 4th candidate who has no money but at least has stayed out of the fray. So this race may be interesting, but I don't think Palin endorsed what many considered as the tea party candidate.
