Sarah Palin in CPAC 2016-2019
On Foreign Policy:
The only thing rising under Obama is the Russian empire
Obama's policies: how do you convey to Putin the threat that sounds like 'Vladimir, don't mess around, or you're going to feel my flexibility, cause I got a phone and I got a pen and, um, I can dial real fast and poke you with my pen. Pinky promise.'
Obama started all this. He promised us a safe peaceful world, promised he's got al-Qaeda on the run, yeah, perhaps towards us. And safer? He would gut our arsenal, he allows our enemies to enrich theirs. Man, that's just like a liberal on gun control.
Mr. President, the only thing that stops a bad guy with a nuke is a good guy with a nuke.
He promised to heal the planet and stop the raise of the oceans, but the planet's not listening to Dr. Obama.
The only thing rising in his la-la land is the Russian empire. I'm sorry, I'm probably being too hard on the president, after all, who could have seen this coming?

On Health Care:
Young people are ObamaCare suckers: they must pay the bill
It's pretty cool to see some of the College Republicans sitting down here. There are always so many young people, or, as you're known by the folks [in Washington DC], 'ObamaCare suckers.' Yep, you are the ones who pay the bills in our brave new world.
They forgot that when they said that you were the change that you were waiting for. Turns out, you have the change that they're waiting for. You have the change, you have the fives, you have the tens, and twenties.Last year, our fellow Americans had
decided, evidently, to double-down on hopey-changey. But then, something happened, that 'hope and change' went from a catchy campaign slogan to a reality, and along the way, 'yes we can,' it became 'no you can't, no, you can't log on to the website, no
you can't keep your health care.'
Americans know now: there ain't no such thing as a free lunch. There is no free birth control. There's no free doctor visits. Someone always pays, and if you don't know who that someone is, it's probably you.

On Health Care:
Ode to Dr. Seuss: I do not like his health care scam
Senator Ted Cruz' filibuster, it worked in waking people up to the folly of a government take-over of 1/6 of our economy. Ted Cruz had a clever way of doing it, too. Dr. Seuss, who'd a thunk? I have five kids so reading Green Eggs and Ham over all those
years, you know, you totally have it memorized. For my little Trig, for his bedtime story, now it goes something like this:
I do not like this Uncle Sam
I do not like his health care scam
I do not like these dirty crooks
Or how they lie
and cook the books.
I do not like when Congress steals
I do not like their crony deals
I do not like this spying man
I do not like 'Oh yes we can'
I do not like this spending spree;
We're smart, we know there's nothing free!
I do not
like reporter's smug replies
When I complain about their lies
I do not like this kind of hope,
And we wont' take it nope, nope, nope!
Hat tip the internet. I saw a couple of lines on the internet on that, and I winged the other ones.

On Principles & Values:
Duck Dynasty: fired for expressing devout Christian views
Remember when our buddy from Duck Dynasty, Phil--remember this? Here's Phil, he's talking about faith with a reporter from GQ, first mistake, but in between saying he loves humanity, he loves sinners, and leave it to God to judge. Well, he quoted the
Bible and he got colorful with expressing his opinion, so what did that brilliant TV network do? They fired him. They canned the devout Christian for expressing his devout Christian views on a television show about his devout Christian family.
In another time though, that might have been it. Phil would have stayed fired, but not now, not this time, people all over America knew. It wasn't just wingers and clingers, people all over America knew that Phil's right to express himself, that fight
that he had to undertake, well, that was all about our right to express ourselves. His fight was our fight and we pushed back and we won. And now everyone is happy, happy, happy.
