Joy! Palin to go to Israel! Joy!

In the comments, we were discussing how Free Republic's political philosophy is more about people than principles. This is no more evident than how Obama can't do anything right, and Palin's every move is a masterstroke. Wee bit fascistic, there.

Thus, when Sarah Palin goes to their beloved Israel and is gonna meet with Netanyahu, there is some kind of cult-of-personality resonance and Freepers lose it with uncontainable joy:

arderkrag manages a sentence, though not to connect it to reality:
She's not even in office and she's doing more for future diplomacy than Obammy's done in his full term so far.
mancini does not:

YESSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!

mancini then manages to collect himself enough to post a fantasy:

I hope Bibi rolls out the red carpet and treats her like she’s president. SIBO

juliej knows what is right:

G-d bless Governor Palin for doing the right thing, unlike our pro Pali Prez.

hrh40 wants us to know that Palin knows all about Japan:
as Alaska’s gov she had major trade dealings with Japan and in fact, wrote a letter to the Obama admin in early 2009 when they tried to shut down some flights from Japan to AK. Can’t remember the details. But Japanese Loooooovve to vaca in AK, and the shutdown would’ve put a huge dent in AK tourism $$. So Gov Palin stepped in and got the policy changed.
Tucker39 sees God:

I hope this isn’t just wishful thinking on my part, but I hope and pray that such things as this are an indication of God’s hand being upon Sarah Palin’s life for something great in the future.

mancini knows it's Real Love

She's not pandering here. It's the love of Israel that is the motivator not the potential for votes, unlike, well, unlike 99.9% of other politicians.
Windflier can't wait till Palin is Queen:
It's not a coronation. It's a simple acknowledgment that the lady is already shouldering the responsibility of national leadership. The real coronation will come later.

  2. @rusticus,
    I wondered that myself. Urban Dictionary defines it as "Sexually Inappropriate Behaviour Order" which doesn't seem to fit either. I think you have to factor in the rather simple-mindedness of the Freepers and their hatred for the president and figure that the "BO" part stands for "Barack Obama," and the "SI" part probably stands for "Suck It" or "Stuff It."
