Before commenting, I thought I'd dwell on this for a day. I agree - she misspoke. BUT, I'll also point out that if she were knowledgeable on the issue, she would not have misspoken. It's only because her level of knowledge on the subject is questionable at best. It's the difference between ordering french fries and french toast at McDonalds. You know what you want, you know exactly what you're talking about. And, under those circumstances, you don't misspeak.

There is no doubt she's a bit ignorant, I'd also guess she doesn't pay much attention to what happens beyond the US border. But that describes most Americans. As I said before, I like her, but she doesn't have what it takes to be president.

The left will tell us who they fear the most by attacking them with the most vigor.

LOL this old right-wing spin.

So, Adolf Hitler is rising, and the left says he's a terrible leader, don't put him in power.

RedChief comes along and says the left shows who they fear since they attack him.

Ha Ha, got ya left! Now we'll elect the person you say is bad since it's funny! Ha Ha!

People who say what RedChief says are like children. Unable to discuss an issue, to get the problems she has, but only to say Ha Ha I'll vote for her it's funny, screw you left!

(No, I'm not comparing Palin to Hitler, but if you need that explained, the explanation won't do any good).

Love that list of lefist fraidy cats...

Jeb Bush
Karl Rove
Barbara Bush
George Will
Newt Gingrich

Hey I LIKE Barbara Bush (except for her moronic post-Katrina statement). George Will writes great baseball columns and frequently semi-interesting (or at least readable) political ones and Jeb Bush is one of the better Bushes. I will agree that Karl Rove is evil in action and Newt Gingrich isn't too far behind Rove, except that once in a blue month he takes an honorable postion (then again he's like the Jim Cramer of politics, wait a day and he'll announce a new firm opinion 180 degrees the opposite of today's).

I admire Palin for her ability to fleece money out of her crowd of deluded followers, but as a potential President she's an absolute trainwreck-think GWB without his intelligence, training, staff or knowledge. Whoever labeled her as the snarky cheerleader you knew from high school hit the nail right on the head.

A bit ignorant? She's not just "a bit", she's a fuckload of ignorant wrapped up into an attention whoring MILF opportunistic power monger. That means she'll tell you anything she can just to make you an adoring fan. Naturally all politicians are like this to a certain extent, but we've seen plenty of times when her own personal life doesn't match her blowhard ways.

If I were a woman I would be utterly and completely insulted by this as she also tries to portray herself as one of these pioneering women whose also a bit folksy and sexy. Who the fuck runs around and dresses in leather at speeches? That's the sex appeal.

What's sad is that people like you are so easily manipulated that you can't even make a rational thought process.

She doesn't even have what it takes to be mayor. She almost drove the fucking city into bankruptcy.

This is what is telling. Even rational thinkers on the right (if you can call any of those people true Republicans, but I wouldn't call Palin one either), are sitting there thinking "Wow, this woman is just..dumb".

I cannot believe she is even trying to take on Barbara Bush. Really? Blue-Bloods? You made 13 fucking million dollars last year, bitch. You were perfectly willing to suck the bush tit until somebody called you a name, now you're acting like a high schooler.

What happens if Kim Jong Ill calls her a name? Going to launch a nuke?

This is exactly why she quit as governor, she can't stand the heat.

:awe: ROTFLMAO at the collection of fools that take an obvious misstatement that is corrected in the next breath and spend HOURS of their lives trying to spin a conspiracy theory out of it!

Didn't you guys have anything better to do over Thanksgiving? Eat some turkey, go for a walk, take your girlfriend/wife out for a double chai latte or whatever it is that progs drink these days?

I mean don't get me wrong, I love yet another Palin thread as a means of identifying the haters that post here. Haters will be haters. But instead of endlessly gnashing your little teeth about someone that will likely be the first female President of these United States, why don't you consider getting a life, even if just for a day or so!

(Backs out slowly toward the espresso machine for a triple ristretto...)

Wait. o_O

I thought you WERE a woman?!?!? What with the PMSing cattiness of your posts and all.

My bad.

Anyone who would use an obvious slip of the tongue as reason to denounce a politician, is as clueless as Sarah Palin herself.

Let me guess, you are PMSing, too? I would think you would be done with that by now.

Everyone else in meltdown must be at that time of the month. Again.

I hear that in close proximity, like these claustrophobic confines, it does happen that it starts and ends in sync. Now we have proof.

:awe:

Unlike you, my thought process isn't driven by emotion and agenda. What you don't like is the message, that the messenger is an easy target is a bonus. I've never said I like her politics, I've never claimed to admire her intellect. I like her looks and simple declarative statements. You hate her because she doesn't agree with your agenda, you fear that she might actually steer political opinion away from what you deem to be the correct path, and it angers you that everyone won't hate her as they should. You're a fool.

Palin is riding a wave of popularity, it's really that simple. She may or may not be able to parlay that into some public office, but I doubt she'll ever be president. If by some bazaar set of circumstances she did manage to achieve the white house, I'm fairly confident that there is someone there who's job it is to make sure the President knows where Africa is, and to tell her when it's appropriate to wear leather trousers.

Huh. Replace a "right" with a "left", and you're talking about Craig. Why don't you ever post this sort of review about him?
