Tea party event with Perry/Palin canceled

A San Antonio event that was slated to feature Gov. Rick Perry and former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin later this month has been canceled.

The National Conservative Symposium was also supposed to feature conservative commentators Sean Hannity, Michelle Malkin and Laura Ingraham.

But a group called Tea Party Support, which is coordinating the event, has posted this message on its Web site: "Due to circumstances beyond the control of Tea Party Support, we are forced to cancel the National Conservative Symposium. More information will follow soon. Please check back. We have started processing refunds."

The event was scheduled for Jan. 22-24.

I guess Sarah dumped them for Fox News.

:rofl:

:hi:

Yes we are all sick of the teabaggers, but you know some teabags might be useful around the primary season. The R primary needs a good strong soaking.

It's good for our side.

5. Translation: "We couldn't come up with enough money to cover Sarah's speaking fee."

8. 'It's God's Plan.'" LOL

But on to Chapter 20, "Sarahcuda," after the jump:
:rofl:
On McCain’s pick of her:
When Palin met McCain, the team that was vetting her had been doing so for just five days, "less investigation than a potential assistant secretary of agriculture would receive." McCain's advisers, Steve Schmidt and Mark Salter, weren’t "poking and prodding to find every possible weakness in Palin," the authors note. "They didn't explore her preparedness to be vice president. They assumed she knew as much as the average governor, and that what she didn’t know, she would pick up on the fly. They weren’t searching for problems. They were looking for a last-second solution."

9. Hell when G.W. thinks Palin came out of right field...

But according to the authors, when President George W. Bush heard of McCain’s pick (on a TV in the basement of the West Wing), he at first thought it was Tim Pawlenty.
"But then he realized that the name was Palin, and he was completely baffled. (Where did that come from?)"

Vice President Dick Cheney "had a harsher reaction," the authors write. "Palin was woefully unprepared, and McCain had made a ‘reckless choice,' Cheney told his friends."

Ha no wonder the Cheney terror alert bot is taking sides in the Texas Governor's race. He probably thinks Perry and Palin are both "woefully unprepared". He didn't seem to have a problem with G.W.'s " unpreparedness" for the Whitehouse, though :eyes:
