REAGAN 100: Ronald Reagan's Famed Speech "A Time For Choosing"

With Gov Sarah Palin set to deliver the keynote speech at the much-anticipated Reagan 100 celebration at the Reagan Ranch Center in Santa Barbara, CA, there is much interest in the theme chosen for the event: A Time for Choosing, the pro-Goldwater oratory that launched Ronald Reagan's political career on the 1964 TV program Rendevzous with Destiny... and raised $8M in the waning days of Barry Goldwater's campaign.

Sarah Palin to Headline 'Reagan 100' Celebration at Reagan Ranch Center

"A Time for Choosing"


Sarah Palin has been chosen to speak by the Young America Foundation on what would have been Ronald Reagan's 100th birthday...
“I am very excited to have been selected to address Young America’s Foundation’s Reagan 100 dinner,” Governor Palin said.  “Young America’s Foundation has been sharing the values of President Reagan with young people for more than 40 years, and there is no organization more committed to preserving freedom’s future.”
To commemorate the 100th anniversary of Ronald Reagan’s birth, Governor Palin will reflect on the seminal speech by President Reagan, “Time for Choosing,” that discussed the risks and rewards before an America at a crossroads in the early 1960’s. Governor Palin will draw parallels to today while calling for young people to continue the Reagan revolution into the future.
Vice President Dick Cheney will also headline the celebration weekend and deliver the keynote address at the closing Reagan 100 Dinner Banquet on Saturday, February 5 at the Reagan Ranch Center.

Duplicitous Dupnik in A WORLD of Hurt Now...

Deflect, divert, attack opponents... 
typical cornered, incompetent lib

Meanwhile back in reality, Sheriff Clarence Dupnik allowed myriad opportunities to prevent a gruesome bloodbath slip right through his hands... and he knows it

Yesterday the Pima County Sheriff that's been attempting to tack the Tuscon massacre on the American Right in general -and Rush Limbaugh in particular- got a call of congratulations from the President himself... isn't that special.

Thinking persons can be excused for asking "what the hell for"- other than Dupnik's failure to prevent a blood-curdling tragedy right under his nose... must be the diversionary Alinskyite attacks upon American talk radio that Obama finds so to his liking.

And Sheriff Dupnik's got plenty to try and divert us from: according to Arizona's La Cholla Jumps, Dupnik knew all about Jared Loughner, yet assured local radio hosts, bloggers, and college administrators threatened by him -thus frightened for their lives- that the mental health system had him under control... and that they had nothing to worry about (!)

Furthermore, Loughner's mother was herself working for Pima County at the time, while Sheriff Dupnik suggested to some that prosecution of Jared Loughner was "unnecessary" and would cause more problems than it solved. 

Now there's been twenty people shot in Pima County, six fatalities including a Federal judge and a 9-year-old child... and Dupnik could have easily prevented it. 


With the actual reason Dupnik's gone aggro on bloggers, Rush Limbaugh, the TEA Party, et al out of the bag, you've got to wonder how long he'll be in the job now- lawsuits to follow. 

Sheriff Dupnik knows just how involved he was in keeping a bloodthirsty ogre out on the street... and also how he failed to file the charges that could have prevented Loughner from buying that problematic semi-auto Glock 9mm, apparently with his unemployment check. Dupnik's behavior in the wake of the tragedy -coming out firing with both barrels at conservative media- hardly  bespeaks confidence in his previous handling of the situation.

Alas, any argument purporting that lucid political logic drove the actions of this madman is moot, anyway- certified shrink Dr. Charles Krauthammer is convinced that Loughner's a paranoid-schizophrenic, no real surprise there. Still, as for the MSM's handling of the story, Dr K sees nothing but "cynicism, willful ignorance, and malice".

Leftist opportunists need need to be called on the sickening false narrative they're pushing in order to exploit this tragedy. What they are doing is way wrong, and the intentionally misleading statements and unprincipled innuendo need to be bathed in the harsh light of reality...

It's not Rush Limbaugh nor Sarah Palin that have blood on their hands, Sheriff Dupnik... it's you and that lunatic you should have had locked away years ago.

Sarah Palin Comes Under Cyber-Attack by Pro-Assange 'Hack-tivists'

"Operation Payback" cowards get personal while hiding 
behind their monitors like the worms they are


After targeting revenge attacks and crashing sites at VISA, MasterCard, PayPal -even the Swedish government- now the same vindictive geeks are going after Sarah Palin...

ABC:

The website and personal credit card information of former Gov. Sarah Palin were cyber-attacked today by Wikileaks supporters, the 2008 GOP vice presidential candidate tells ABC News in an email. 

Hackers in London that the Palin team believe to be affiliated with “Operation Payback” – a group of supporters of Julian Assange and Wikileaks – have tried to shut down SarahPac and have disrupted Sarah and Todd Palin’s personal credit card accounts, SarahPAC aide Rebecca Mansour said. 

“No wonder others are keeping silent about Assange's antics,” Palin emailed ABC News. “This is what happens when you exercise the First Amendment and speak against his sick, un-American espionage efforts.” 

Palin has criticized Wikileaks founder Assange, writing on Facebook that his “past posting of classified documents revealed the identity of more than 100 Afghan sources to the Taliban. Why was he not pursued with the same urgency we pursue al-Qaeda and Taliban leaders?...Assange is not a 'journalist' any more than the 'editor' of al-Qaeda's new English-language magazine Inspire is a 'journalist.’ He is an anti-American operative with blood on his hands." 

Activist Gregg Housh told the New York Times "that 1,500 people were on online forums and chatrooms including Anonops.net, mounting mass and repeated 'denial of service' attacks on sites that have moved against Mr. Assange and WikiLeaks in recent days." 

A cached page from Anonops.net shows Palin's site as a suggested target. A SarahPAC.com technical aide said that the "DOS attackers, a group loosely known as Anon_Ops, used a tool called LOIC (Lower Orbit Ion Cannon) to flood sarahpac.com. The attackers wanted us to know that they were affiliated with wikileaks.org through an obscure message in our server log file.“

Palin's principled patriotism sure has a way of drawing the rats out... doesn't it.
