I would have respected her more if she had stayed her post and gained some experience instead of going on a media blitz.

I am not impressed.

I gotta admit tho, if she did become our next prez, I'd consider her a "P.I.L.F."

Of course, if she does get elected, women all over the US will have the perfect excuse to make us guys pussywhipped.

They don't need an excuse. Any guy that gets pussy whipped, needs an excuse.

@ Classic: it was an (admittedly not very good) impression of UG :P

The republicans made a HUGE stink about President Obama's use of teleprompters, even though they've been around since Reagan. What do they say about Palin's not only getting the questions earlier but also writing down her answers on her PALM!!!
How's that "You Betcha-y, rogue-y thing working out for ya?

Ms Palin? That's not what "palm-pilot" means.


Just imagine that palm, circa 2013...

1. Confront Putin over nukes/Iran
2. Learn to use the google.
3. Buy milk, bread.

She's an idiot wrapped in a moron inside a stupid person.

You've got to hand it to her.
Get milk.
Get bread.
Run for president.

Fortunately, ink does not last long on a palm.

Take those guys out of the mix and suppress Democratic votes and you've got an election win. Obama can beat them with solid centrist stuff like getting the budget under control, some actual financial reform, and throwing some red meat to the public by humiliating some bailout recipients.

So Emanuel and Limbaugh used the word "retard" to describe folks they disagree with, but only Rahm was wrong? Yep, that's how it is in Palin's world. The advocate for the mentally challenged was quick to pounce on someone she disagrees with politically but defended her patron saint, Rush.

Sarah, when you hold yourself up as a fierce protector of the mentally challenged, politics shouldn't enter into the equation. Either you criticize everyone who uses a word that you consider a slur, or you come across as a crass politician who is afraid to offend your chief booster.


Quote:
Maybe you ought to listen to your spokeswoman, Meghan Stapleton, who thought you cared about the mentally challenged when she sent this e-mail to HotAir.com about Limbaugh's comment: "Gov. Palin believes crude and demeaning name-calling at the expense of others is disrespectful."

But knowing that wouldn't sit well with Rush, you backed off and gave him cover.
Quote:
You decry the "lamestream" media, but you bask in its glory and have joined its payroll as a Fox News contributor, even having the network build a studio in your home. Talk about media elite.


Quote:
You don't fool me, even as your legion of fans considers you the second coming of President Reagan. You quit on the people who elected you to become a political celebrity, which your presidential running mate blasted then-Sen. Barack Obama for doing.

You had the opportunity to show everyone that you're willing to take on anyone who crosses the line against those who are mentally challenged, and you failed.

Please, make as much money as you can. Paraphrasing comedian Martin Lawrence, ride this train until the wheels fall off. But please, cut the crap. You're a crass politician with no true conviction. Your actions have shown that.
