Palin the Libertarian?
by PubliusFrom New York Times today:
Sarah Palin, in what was billed as her first speech overseas, spoke on Wednesday to Asian bankers, investors and fund managers.
A number of people who heard the speech in a packed hotel ballroom, which was closed to the media, said Mrs. Palin spoke from notes for 90 minutes and that she was articulate, well-prepared and even compelling.
“The speech was wide-ranging, very balanced, and she beat all expectations,” said Doug A. Coulter, head of private equity in the Asia-Pacific region for LGT Capital Partners.
“She didn’t sound at all like a far-right-wing conservative. She seemed to be positioning herself as a libertarian or a small-c conservative,” he said, adding that she mentioned both Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher. “She brought up both those names.”

I liked her way before she was picked to be the VP candidate. If she turns libertarian, that could be huge. As a libertarian, i think she would be an awesome addition. The Lame Stream Media will surely do what they can to attack her, but they are quickly becoming irrelevant.
I liked her when she first came on the scene and still do…but I get really skeptical of peopel when they all of a sudden become libertarian. I'll believe it when I see her put those beliefs into action…and if she does I'll be her biggest fan. I wish teh GOP would look at someone like Gary Johnson, former governor of NM, because he was a libertarian before it became trendy.

Palin is strong personality. I don't see her ever outright lying as does the current Potus. She gives me a sense of true Americanism and unlike Ogizmo I don't think she would scare in the face of foreign pressures.
If she runs she will absolutely bear listenting too. Smart lady with far more skills than what we have now.
If she wants to be a real libertarian, appoint Lew Rockwell to her cabinet, make peter Schiff her economic advisor, and be Ron Paul's Vice President.
Just think we could have, MOM, Apple pie, and Chevrolet all in one office.

Palin criticized Obama’s plan to give the Fed powers to monitor risks to the financial system. A meltdown last year led to $1.6 trillion of bank losses and writedowns and triggered a global recession.
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB12536805754763322...
Mrs. Palin blamed the U.S. Federal Reserve's low interest-rate policy of previous years for setting the stage for last year's global financial crisis. She opposed appointing the Fed as the chief overseer of systemic risk in the U.S. financial system. "The words 'fox' and 'henhouse' come to mind. The Fed's decisions have created the bubble," she said.
She called for tax cuts as well as the elimination of the capital gains and estate tax. Then, she said, the world will "watch the U.S. economy roar back to life."
I would vote for Sarah Palin for president in a heartbeat. She is articulate, honest and very compelling. Go Sarah, we need a fresh voice in politics and the Left is afraid of you!
It is strange how the American people always scream they want reform, then they allowed the msm to skewer the one true reformer in the election.
You go girl… Beauty and brains in one package. I bet she knew about the ACORN videos and how much federal funding they were getting. Can't say the same about Charlie Gibson or our fine President.
Sarah Palin doesn't need to run as a libertarian. All that would do is give Obama a second term as president. The republican party has its problems, but abandoning it is not the answer. The GOP simply needs to be taken back to where it belongs. There are many libertarian principles inherent in the republican party. These principles can be brought back to the forefront without splitting the conservative vote. Palin is a dynamic personality who could unite these parties behind a republican ticket. This should be her, and our, focus.
Here are libertarians to be excited about: Glenn Beck, Peter Schiff, Rand Paul, John Stossel, Judge Napolitano, and of course Sarah Palin. She can be the leader, the president to unite conservatives, libertarians, and disenfranchised republicans, independents, and democrats.
Sarah certainly is hitting all the right notes will get my support come 2012.
Go Sarah!!
Two people who walked out in her conference and does not want to be identify were probably Soros spies or Axelrod spies. They cannot let go of this woman because Sarah is brilliant.
Don't forget about Wayne Allyn Root!
Wayne Allyn Root was the 2008 Libertarian Party Vice Presidential nominee. HIs new book, "Conscience of a Libertarian" is an EXCELLENT read! I highly recommend it — and HIM — to every American citizen.

Someone help me out. What does it mean to be a "small-c conservative"?
GmC is already in the WH. We bought it remember?
wow, you guys are really, really discrediting yourselves by showing love for this idiot
the acorn thing was great, you gained a lot of attention…now don't blow it by falling for this bs
2 people out of how many? Go Sarah. We need you.
I think she will run but not as a D or and R …..
Now if we can work on her interview skills… which really surprised me since we was a sportscaster back in the day… That woman is one smart cookie she just needs to be more polished and refined… I have liked her since she came on the scene… and I still like her… I hope she focuses on the issues and not on trivial things (like the the left keeps accusing her of).
She was why I voted McCain in the first place…
Give’em hell Sarah! It will surely piss off the 57th staters …what fun. : )
Teddy: You apparently have a problem with strong, beautiful and intelligent women. I can only guess why……
That is as opposed to your love, Barry and his BS hmmm…
Uh yeahhhh. Thats why I said apple pie, mom and chevorlet. I get it.
Same here. Speaking of McCain, I wonder if his cancer is back and spreading? The last time I heard him speak I thought he was having problems.
NY Times awful coverage version 1989039
Palin friend Fred Malek talks to the AP. He says this.
http://is.gd/3BhFN
The "Early Word" NY Times blog reports these quotes as this.
http://is.gd/3BhOd
The NY Times just fabricates the quote with "more to do".
You are confusing Governor Palin with Tina Fey.
A number have said that "If you're taking flak, you're over the target". Considering how much liberals despise Gov. Palin, and her family, it shows how truly effective she is. I know there can never be another Reagan, but I continue to get the same feeling in my heart whenever she speaks that I felt whenever Ronaldus Magnus spoke. We need someone to lead us out of the darkness of the Obama years, and I hope that Sarah, or someone like her, will step up to the plate and demonstrate the courage and the leadership we so desperately need.
You show your complete lack of intelligence when you call Sarah Palin an idiot. Read the whole article, people smarter than you'll ever be say she's bright and dolts like you are wrong….
But keep it up, the childish "She's stupid…" (insert whiny-girlie-voice here) is so becoming…
Agreed. I think it will be interesting to see where all the pissed off independents (and those who woke up from their Obamacoma) end up.
She's smart, articulate and tells it like it is. That's what scares liberals. They don't trust her for that which is something I find so very amusing.
If she's stupid, then there has to be some basis of comparison, correct? Hilary? Pelosi? Boxer? I'll take public school intellect and common sense over the liberal 'reason', nanny-stateism, and bullsh*t any day.
Next up, teddy's going to comment on her hair.
It is crazy that they don't trust someone honest isn't it?
I would just like to read the speech. We love Sarah in our home. She has a very bright future and so will this country with her involved.
I just don't understand why liberal women despise her. She's a working mom (a government job no less!), check. Been married to same guy for years, check. She has had issues with her kids, check. She's honest, doesn't back down and plays with the big boys, check. The only thing I can think of is her accent. Liberals love to watch Steel Magnolias or anything with Sally Field or Charlize Theron playing disenfranchised regional women who do all the above. However actually hanging out with them is a whole other thing. Excuse me, your elitism is showing.
A Conservative is a member of the Conservative Party. A conservative is someone who follows the conservative principles.
I am libertarian-leaning conservative. Since she came on the national stage, I always thought she was more libertarian than conservative. But the far right conservatives applauded her as one of their own and the liberal media bashed her as a far-right Christian conservative. Then, I started to think that she was too much of a blank-slate – that everyone could project their own opinions of a Republican politician on her.
I’m glad to see that she is filling in the details as a libertarian type conservative (libertarianism can and does go way too far sometimes.)
Also note that she avoided the recent values summit. That also points to a desire to stay on the libertarian side of the republican party as opposed to the christian conservative side.
I love how someone smuggled in a hidden camera. No doubt they were hoping to catch Palin say something they could call stupid and post it on Brietbart!! Haha…didn't work.
They probably think that if Palin is on the ticket in 2012 is the only way Obama can win…
They would be wrong. You'll see.
That's SOP for left wingers. Can't refute her on the facts or her stance on policy so just call her stupid. Problem is that tactic has a short shelf-life and people feel insulted when you tell them not to vote for her because "she's stupid".
I've seen your example of smart and articulate…especially when the teleprompter breaks down…
I'll take her kind of "stupid", thank you very much…
BTW: this kind of "stupid" is really coming back into vogue…you should be frightened to death…

It's because she is conservative… and they don't like that… they think she is corrupt and a dolt… they keep bringing up the ONE (and usually unverifiable) citizen of Wasilla or Alaska that claims Palin is this evil corrupt monster… even though everything can be refuted… They run to blogs instead of records… they see her has a hypocrite because she supports abstance (though they refuse to acknowledge that she also supports the use of contraceptives) and her teenage daughter became pregnant while not married…. And she is just a conservative….
Sarah Palin, the Liberal Fascist Militant Main Stream Medias worst NIGHTMARE!
would you mind qualifying your statement? how exactly is she an idiot?
Libertarians would scoff at your characteristic of Glenn Beck, because Libertarians oppose the Iraq War. Notice all of these libertarians are in the REPUBLICAN Party. I'm quite happy about it, and there needs to be a greater move toward the libertarian philosophy. Liberty and Prosperity, founded upon the principles of FREE market capitalism, will bring us hope and change.
I always like Sarah Palin, and there's a reason she quotes The Cato Institute when she writes on Health Care Reform.
Sarah Palin has a future. He actions over the next couple of years will be huge in defining what that future will be.
Expect the brilliant response that that complete tool Bill Maher gave, "I don't have to explain it, it just is…"
I guess when you're that out of touch with reality you can just make up stuff without ever having to explain it…
Palin is a serious threat to Obamaism in part because she already has the "far right-wing" largely behind her.
Since bursting onto the scene, Palin has demonstrated a unique connection with Christian conservatives. Reaching out to the more libertarian portion of the party only makes sense, so long as she does so in a manner that doesn't compromise her Christian beliefs.
Christian conservatives are horrified by the Obama cult and the change it seeks to bring to America: “CHANGE FOR AMERICA, JACKASS STYLE – THE DEMOCRAT PARTY’S WAR ON CHRISTIANITY” at http://firebreathingchristian.wordpress.com/2009/...
It will be interesting to see if she can pull off this balancing act.
I think that she can, but only time will tell.

i hope she runs in 2012
will be the final nail in the coffin for the lunatic fringe of the GOP
then maybe true conservatism can make a comeback, cuz this country needs is
Yeah, and 9/11 Troofer Alex Jones as head of National Security.
Agreed, no third party.
She is true conservatism.
You, and your ilk, are not.
If we disenfranchise our National Defense then all the Libertarian kiddy porn in the world won't mean a damn thing.
And Libertarians reflect upon this, doing dirty dealings with dictators, kleptocrats and all around genocidal tyrants is a Rigged Market not a Free Market.
So stop the BS about supporting Liberty, Prosperity and Capitalism.
It means Libertarians want Conservatives to look the other way while Libertarians conduct dirty business dealings with dictators, kleptocrats and all around genocidal tyrants because the profit margin is greater.
Something Conservative Ronald Reagan would not do when he confront the Evil Empire.
How can Ron Paul Libertarians hold such distaste for neo-Conservatism when Reagan inspired the movement?
The areas where libertarians and conservatives disagree are areas where the government shouldn't be in the first place.
They say you can judge a person by the company they keep. In this case look at who she traveled with – John McCain's neoconservative former foreign policy adviser. If she wants to project libertarianism she should decry American foreign adventurism and imperialism not globe trot with one of it's biggest proponents.
It's nice that she puts blame on the Federal Reserve for our current economic mess, which is where it belongs, but why not take it farther and call for sound money? Why not give credit to Ron Paul for predicting these problems and spending his entire career leading the charge against the Fed and calling for sound money?
What she is doing is eerily similar to what W did in the 2000 election cycle. He ran a campaign on less foreign intervention, no nation building, and fiscal restraint. He went on to become the biggest spender since LBJ, if not bigger and we all know where foreign policy went under him. I realize 911 occurred and I supported the war in Afganistan to get the people who did it, as did Ron Paul, but Iraq? No. Was never necessary.
Long story short; we'll see, but I don't trust this woman to back up her rhetoric. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if her current direction is intended to derail the real libertarian movement that is going on in the Republican Party in order to reinvigorate the Neoconservative agenda.
Thank you for the response but the question remains.
Since conservatism can include a broad range of ideals, for someone to be described as a "small-c conservative" seems to not say much of anything about them at all.
I"ve read several articles about her speach. Funny how the spin goes! Anonymous ones walking out – my A! And miss something for them to misquote!!!! I don not believe there were any walk outs! I think we could find out who these so called, "american reps" were!!!! Some reports say she spoke for 70 minutes, some 80 and some 90, so which is it??

But James, Palin has a record as governor of being EXTREMELY fiscally responsible. Her last budget was SMALLER than the last budget of her predecessor. That's real dollars smaller – not inflation-adjusted smaller.
Yes, she did raise taxes on oil companies to ensure that Alaskans got their fair share of revenues from the development of their natural resources according to their Constitution. But when the $$ were pouring in during the summer of 08, she got the legislature to sock away $5 billion in savings – and vetoed $100 million of their spending spree. And she was right when the price of oil plummeted within 6 months.
Her record very definitely shows she is not the spender W was, so don't be so "concerned."
Another FACT you left out: For her 2006 gubernatorial campaign Palin sought and received the Libertarian Party's endorsement.
I do not think she is leaving the Repub party or trying to undermine the Libertarian party. She is trying to steer the Repub party back to its roots. Follow the Constitution. Get government out of the way so Americans can enjoy our Creator-given freedoms. Keep our country strong economically and militarily.
Excuse me? Libertarians conduct dirty business dealings with dictators? Care to provide an example?
Answer me this: Where in the Constitution does it say that these United States should be the police for the world?
Neo-conservatism is just about as bad as Progressivism, in my opinion.
That is a great point. I've never quite thought about it that way. You're right, that should be left up to individuals anyway.
She is allot smarter than that guy…whats his name…one of the smartest people ever….ummmm the one that claimed he invented the internet….old whats his rotten name….ummm oh yah Al Gore…the lunitic Al Gore …The guy that did not even know who a bust of Ben Franklin was….
[...] Big Government » Blog Archive » Palin the Libertarian? [...]
Please, Sarah, PLEASE stay politically relevant by being a lower-case-L libertarian Republican, not a capital-L Libertarian. American voters will never go for things like privatizing the military, privatizing the courts, isolationist foreign relations, and so forth.
A libertarian Republican, on the other hand: that would appeal to a lot of voters–more and more as time goes by…
I think she was already leaning libertarian in the first place, but when you're the VP candidate for the Reps, you can't quite let that show. Or rather, you cuoldn't let that show last year. Now, it's a different story. The Libertarian change in the Reps may be what cleans up the GOP house. One can hope at least.
Well, there were two, problem was, we didn't get them on the same ticket. Paul/Palin would've been stellar!
No abandoning the GOP, just pull it towards a more libertarian point. There are a good number of new Rep candidates coming up that are leaning more libertarian. More appear every day to challenge the "old dogs" that have gotten to set in their ways in DC.
No third party, just restructure the one that's worth fixing.
Nice job of outing yourself as clueless. Typical liberal, comes in, casts insults, provides nothing useful.
…or that FOX is so enamored of their own Huckabee having won the 'straw vote' for a Republican nod that they didn't want him overshadowed by Mrs. Palin.Just sayin'.
Great post! What freaks Mrs. Palin's critics out is that she does indeed have a record, and it's a good one! The ideals of the Republican Party are sound. No matter how much people wish to refer to themselves as Libertarians, it's a losing proposition to attempt a third party run for highest office. Sometimes it's necessary to point out that when politicians implement Big Government solutions they are going AGAINST Republican values, regardless of their chosen affiliation.
She didn't have an abortion in her past nor did she encourage an abortion in her daughter's pregnancy. How awful…what was she thinking??? THAT'S why liberals don't like her…she makes them feel bad about themselves.
Not only would I vote for Palin in a heartbeat, I'd volunteer time, expertise (I'm a software engineer) and anything else I could do to see her win.
Look I really want to like her and I'm glad for the things you mention in her record. I especially like her position on the Federal Reserve as I believe the monetary issue is central to all issues. I also agree with you NorthtsarATL that the ideals of the Republican Party are sound, which is why I'm a small -l libertarian Republican, but the moment she became McCain's running mate she became linked to the neocon establishment that has control over the Republican Party and apparently she still travels around with some of them like this former foreign policy adviser to McCain. Ron Paul is the most prominent libertarian in the Republican party. If she wants to reach out to that demographic she needs to reach out to him and his supporters.
As I said, we'll see. I just can't bring myself to trust her. I hope I'm pleasantly surprised.
If anyone in the media ever took the time to review Palin's policies and how she governed in Alaska, they would have found she isn't some right-wing nutcase. Just as an example, she veto a billed that would have banned state employee benefits for same sex partners. Hardly a right-wing thing to do. They allowed the fact that she is pro-life to color their better judgment.
I am curious if anyone in the media has actually taken the time to review her actual governance.
But I do think the important question here, which no one has asked, is what would Levi Johnston think?
You make some good observations here.
In an ideal world, i think libertarianism is the perfect system. However, due to our current culture of victimhood, dependence, and just general irresponsibility, some elements of libertarianism just wouldn't work. However, the main components of libertarian ideology, such as small government, low taxes, individual liberty (including personal privacy, etc.), and personal responsibility, would be great for our country. I've always said that if the Founding Fathers were still alive, they would probably be libertarians.
i'm also glad to see Sarah showing that she is a conservative type libertarian… if, in fact, thats what she is. I liked her before, but this just puts the icing on the cake.
That's true too. Sorry but…Huckabee? Really?
Uh no. Not really. Small c conservatism has but a few principles: maintaining small, fiscally responsible government and looking to conserve those practices that have historically proven to work–the "tried and true" approach to governing. Small Cs traditionally believe in a strict interpretation of the Constitution.
If you aren't practicing that approach to governing, you aren't being conservative.
Not to be confused with neo-conservative which, if you study your history, is actually a post-modern, hawkish democrat evolution of "conservatism".
Sarah!!! Please support Chelene Nighitngale for governor in CA she is your twin sister! http://www.nightingaleforgovernor.com
Here's another Chelene Nightngale for CA Gov. http://www.nightingaleforgovernor.com
If he gives amnesty to illegal aliens that will secure his re-election. Meanwhile you can support http://www.marhsallderosa.com for US Senate in FL Constitution Party
Can't fix what is already broken. You forget the higher ups control the GOP, you have to leave it. Hope you join the http://www.constitutionparty.com
Its quite simple really libertarians believe our rights come from government. Constitutionalists believe our rights come from God as our founders did.
Oh ya never know. Stranger things have happened. But, I'll give that site a look too.
Palin's conservative. She's always spoken well and this straightforward. The writer is spinning, evidently not familiar with genuine conservatism, but only with the worthless and deliberately misleading MSM stereotype, so the analysis is lame.
Predicted months ago that Palin as an Alaskan was more Pacific-focused. Anchorage is further from Wash DC than Netherlands, just for perspective. Brilliant she went East and locked the press out. The media was utterly and remains vicous and unbelievably cruel to her and her family. Best thing ever, ignore them, cut them out. Palin is indeed getting her message, just as she promised in her VP speech, straight to the people, not playing the corrupt media game.
Once people get over the fraud about conservatives that has been fed to them by the media, they'll relax and listen – the Pavlovian reaction will fade.
(1) Libertarianism and Conservatism heavily overlap in free markets, drastically reduced government meddling in business & personal decision-making, low taxes – in total opposiiton to Progressive Liberal Left gov't control of markets. Libertarians and Conservatives are in agreement along the political spectrum when it comes to freedom of individual expression & living, which for Libertarians to be free to do what one wants, & for Conservatives manifests itself in freedom of conscience & free practice of religion. The BIG divide between Libertarian and Conservative comes with just how good human nature is. … to (2)
(
(2) Libertarians believe humans are by nature fundamentally good, & can be trusted wth all manner of freedoms, the Conservative believes that human nature unchecked is capable of much evil, thus the Conservatives support more laws that restrict human unbridled human expression; Liibertarians argue that hardly any restrictions are valid. Thus NAMBLA proponents find a more welcoming philosophy in Libertarianism, but find a very chilly & unwelcoming- well, no reception in Conservatism. Abortion amongst Libertarians mirrors more closely Progressive Liberal Left ideology, and is in stark oppostion to the Conservative view that the human being and thus human rights start at conception. In the Conservative view, most Libertarians do not see themselves as bad, and live personally quite self-governed lives, but do not fully appreciate that tsome people find their philosophy will allow them to pursuit a rottenness that many Libertarians would not approve of. The tension between Conservatives & Libertarians is healthy – always debating the ground between too much government and not enough. Thus, Palin's conservative, not libertarian.
True, thanks for checking out the site here is another interesting one http://www.thirty-thousand.org. Wouldn't it be cool if Palin grabbed Huckabee as a VP wins 2012 fires Huckabee day after she is sworn in picks Ron Paul, She resigns Presidency Ron Paul picks Chuck Baldwin Ron Paul picks Sarah to be Secretary of State…you never know.

It's the narrative. As soon as Palin is mentioned someone has to come in and make sure the idea that she's a moron is spread.
Though today they seem a bit tepid. This thread has been open most of the day and the number of comments are below one hundred. Usually there's several hundred with folks like "teddy" doing their best to mass post the usual claims.
I love Sarah Palin! From accounts I've read, (except on PMSNBC) she hit it out of the park with her speech. Congrats, Sarah. Good job. Please keep speaking out with your conservative values. We need you in Washington DC in 2012!!
I hate to tell you boys, but Mike Huckabee is for amnesty too. And Ron Paul? The guy has some good ideas, but get out of Afghanistan? Come on, guys! Should we continue to be isolationists and just let those bastards kill Americans? What the hell?
