Palin unplugged in speech to Alaska GOP dinner


Yep she is at it again and you can't make this up...

"Reflecting on the campaign, Palin said there were "a variety of reasons" Republicans lost in November, namely the faltering economy, but she seemed to place most of the blame on the press."

Yep that?s it; the evil liberalz is what made us lose. Can?t be for being against ?welfare? yet being Gov of the biggest welfare state. Can?t be for not even being able to do a interview without saying Can I get back to you on that many times and looking like a idiot. Can?t be because you use private yahoo e-mail to get around state laws. Can?t be? and on and on? yea it was the evil liberalz media. :laugh:

Evidently she's spent too much sucking face with Ann Coulter, those evil libs are the reason why she is a moron. It has nothing to do with her patent lack of education in anything beyond Anchorage.

Palin has already proven her retardedness, why must she persist to prove it again and again and again?

Is she afraid someone missed how fucking stupid she is?

I hope, for the Republicans sake, that they don't even consider nominating her in 2012.

No, it couldn't be because as Bill Maher said 'you are a category 5 moron' and scared the whole country.

They wont. In the meantime they will use her to raise money.

Sorry to break up this little circle-jerk (normal for you libs here) but if you actually read what was in the link you might have had a clue.

"Some in the media actually participated in not so much the 'who-what-where-when-why' objective reporting on candidates and positions, those five W's that I learned when I had a journalism degree so many years ago in college, when the world of journalism was quite different than it is today," she said.
"No, things have changed," she continued. "But complaining? Or whining? Absolutely not. But I am going to call it like I see it. It doesn't do any good to whine about any of this. But I can call it like I see it. Sometimes it gets me in a lot of trouble when I speak candidly, and I speak from the heart and I do such a thing. But I am going to."


Looks like the OP has "discredited" himself because she said nothing even close to "the evil liberal media".

"And there was that media slant this go round," she said. "And unless things change, the GOP had really better can stand together, 'cause we got that on the battlefield also. I call it like I see it and like I lived it on the campaign trail."

Yea cause she and other right wing nuts, see CAD, never blame the slanted liberal media. :laugh:

Of course maybe she was talking about the Faux Slant. ;)

hEE HEE HAH HAH, don't make us all laugh at Sarah Palin again. When the American people got a good look at the real Sarah Palin, it was open mouth insert foot for her. Sarah is great at delivering way over simplified slogans, but the knowledge behind those slogans was missing in action.

Traditionally the media gives all politicians softball questions they can fudge and Palin was no exception. But when Palin could not even field softball questions without revealing her own appalling ignorance, it was apparent to everyone that she was not ready for prime time. And now instead of working hard and getting up to speed on the issues, Palin only fools herself by blaming the media.

Palin does have the luxury of time to reinvent herself, and quite apparently has not yet even started. As the rest of the 2008 GOP Presidential found out,
allying oneself with the radical right Limbaugh and Joe the Plumber types is not even enough to win the GOP Nomination, much less the general election.

IMHO, Palin does have a chance to reinvent herself along with the GOP, but right now, she is doing it exactly wrong.

Eh, Obama has the office for 8 years anyway. They might as well run her as a throwaway candidate.

Those fvckers caused my loss of the election. Screw them. wah wah wah. BTW, I'm not whining, I'm just calling it like it is! :p

Saying it's not whining doesn't mean it's not whining, especially since she's been WHINING about this since Couric made a total ass out of her, she's bickered and wept over it a multitude of times.

Probable because Republicans keep pulling her out and using her to raise money. So she is still a "voice" of the republican party.

We don't, some just liken her speeches to TMZ: pure entertainment that can't be bought in a store.

There are no sure things in politics. Republicans are a far better minority party than majority party. '12 should be interesting.

Whatever you think about her, the fact that the media is heavily slanted to the left definitely didn't help. The fact that the MSM is completely in love with Obama and fawns all over him also doesn't help. That's just the reality. Redicule as you will, but that's the truth.
