On Feb. 4, the former governor of Alaska will give the keynote address at the opening of two days of festivities marking the late president's 100th birthday.
Her speech at the Reagan Ranch Center in Santa Barbara, Calif., "will draw parallels to today, while calling on young people to continue the Reagan revolution into the future," according to Young America's Foundation, the sponsor of the event.
Palin, the 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate, says she is considering a bid for the presidency in 2012. Like most of her potential rivals for the GOP nomination, she considers herself a "Reagan conservative."
The author clearly means 'speech' in the loosest sense of the term, since it will likely be more along the lines of a cacophony of dropped consonants from the ends of progressive tense verbs, general misstatements, purposeful misrepresentations of history, and a cesspool of vapid Republican platitudes. Dear Sarah is just doing what is necessary to be considered a prominent conservatard in these United States, and that includes servile worship at the altar of the Republican Jebus, which is as quintessentially Republican as unequivocal support for Israel. I am going to go out on a limb and guess that Palin's ramblings at RJ's birthday bash won't be nearly as entertaining as this (as I'm sure she will be in attendance at both events):
Former first lady Nancy Reagan announced plans Thursday to invite the leading Republican contenders to the first debate of the presidential primary season, to be held at her late husband’s presidential library and co-hosted by POLITICO and NBC News.I don't usually ever watch Republican primary debates, but I have a feeling this will be one not to miss. If the candidates falling all over themselves to adequately praise the name of Republican Jebus and wrestle with one another to carry his mantle forward isn't tribute enough, perhaps they could conclude with something along these lines:
The debate, sponsored by the Reagan Presidential Foundation, will be held at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum in Simi Valley, Calif., during the spring of 2011. NBC News will serve as the television partner for the debate while POLITICO is the online content partner.
He lives among us still, selectively solving problems. If shit is fucked up anywhere in the world, he knows about it and can solve it. If he's not solving it, it's because the solution is still trickling down. Be patient!Although to be fair, there's a good chance that their crescendo of praise might reach these levels long before the grand finale, thus spoiling the awesome laser show.
