For someone to be Presidential material, it takes years of work, going through schools, getting meaningful college degrees and some experience before desiring the top spot. Then the people decide if that person deserves the top spot or not. And one of the factors people would need to consider is whether the person is a leader or a quitter. In the last Presidential election, both were excellent candidates. But the people chose the better of the two. I suppose the people who were standing in line to get an autograph are the ones who lost their jobs due to Obama's policies and those who failed to gain any traction from their "birther" movement or tea party protests. I don't blame them for their failure when stalwarts like Hannity fail when he posts two separate clips from two different demonstrations to portray that they were from the same protest. After all, Hannity needs to realize that not all of his audience are folks who would swallow what he offers. There are indeed some smart folks who occasionally drop by to watch his show. Hannity may lie, but Nature never lies. Now for those folks who stood in line for autographs would have portrayed themselves as smart folks if instead they lined up to seek autographs from a national hero and patriot even though he lost his Presidential bid. I attempted to not attack you personally while expressing my opinion on those who seek public office. If you think I called you names and attacked you by characterizing you in a undesireable manner, then I apologize.

You're grasping at straws and your doing it in the dark. You would be well advised to drop the indecency allegation like you did when you realized you had mislabeled them as arrogant. There are lots of other words you could use to make your point effectively. Posting on line all day long trying to prove Palin and Huckabee are indecent is bizarro dude. They are so decent, they make most decent folk role their eyes in disbelief. You and I have very different standards as to what's honorable and decent. No surprise there. "They are so decent most decent folk role their eyes in disbelief".......from where I come that's a joke. Sorry. She left a book signing before everyone got her autograph, oh my! THAT is how you are qualifying your allegation? No explanation you say... well that sounds like how you'd characterize such an event. Are you losing it here? She came to a book signing. At 9 PM the bus departed leaving people who had been standing out in the cold for hours and who had paid the price for the book so they could see her and get it signed. And your response is she had an intinerary??? One hour would have made that big a difference in her itinerary??? Sorry, pumpkin, I ain't buying it. The 'princess' was tired and she wanted to go. End of story.
