Levin Defends Palin Against The Hoity-Toity Crowd

Conservative radio talk show host Mark Levin came to the rescue of Gov. Sarah Palin yesterday after Washington Post conservative columnist Dr. Charles Krauthammer called her "not schooled" in an interview with Bill O'Reilly which aired on Tuesday, May 31, 2011 at Fox. In that interview, Dr. Krauthammer argued that Gov. Palin had two years to educate herself about policy but failed to do so nor does she appear to recognize her need for more learning.

Here's the video of the O'Reilly interview with Dr. Krauthammer:



According to Dr. Krauthammer:

"She is very smart and adept. Great political instincts and is a star. The problem with her, I think, is that she is not schooled. I don't mean she didn't go to the right schools. I mean when you get into policy, beyond instincts -- I like her political instincts, I like her political overall view of the world -- but when it comes to policy, she had two-and-a-half years to school herself and she hasn't and that's a problem. It's not only the lack of schooling, it's the lack of effort to school herself and the lack of insight to see that she needs it."

Here's Levin's defense of Palin:

"So what is it? What’s the problem? She’s solid on social issues. She’s solid on fiscal issues. She’s solid against these subsidies against big companies – in other words, she is not a corporatist. She’s not a crony or a believer in that. She’s solid on taxes and spending. I’m just confused. She’s solid on Israel. She’s solid on the military. She’s solid with respect to our allies. Is there some big issue that’s disqualifying? What – because the liberals don’t like her?

"I’m getting sick and tired, as I said yesterday, last week and I’ve said over the months – I’m getting sick and tired of these smears by Krauthammer against her. He’s a thoroughly decent man, I understand, but he doesn’t seem very decent in this regard and I don’t know why. He’s certainly owes us a column or a better explanation, doesn’t he? He wants to influence the outcome."

I agree with Mark Levin on this one. What matters most is that Sarah's heart is in the right place. She's the only candidate with the star power out there who has been consistent in everything that she stood for and in all her statements. We've had a so-called intellectual president in the White House these last couple of years and we're now practically heading to a double-dip recession under this corrupt administration.

It's not like Sarah doesn't have the smarts to surround herself with people who have knowledge about intricate policy issues. Is Krauthammer saying Obama knows everything there is to know about every economic or geopolitical issue he has to deal with in the Oval Office?

I repeat, Sarah's heart is in the right place. She doesn't compromise or flip-flop like Mitt Romney. If she decides to run, she's our best chance against Obama. Ironically, it's not just the libs who are afraid of her. The Washington GOP elite crowd are also after her, apparently.
