The mind boggles
Edited on Sat Nov-21-09 07:39 PM by babylonsister
Not even complete sentences, yet she's trashing someone who doesn't have a problem with that? :crazy:


Palin Quote of the Day
Isaac Chotiner


From her interview with Bill O'Reilly:

O'REILLY: Do you believe that you are smart enough, incisive enough, intellectual enough to handle the most powerful job in the world?


PALIN: I believe that I am because I have common sense and I have -- I believe the values that are reflective of so many other American values. And I believe that what Americans are seeking is not the elitism, the kind of a spineless -- a spinelessness that perhaps is made up for that with some kind of elite Ivy League education and a fat resume that's based on anything but hard work and private sector, free enterprise principles. Americans are -- could be seeking something like that in positive change in their leadership. I'm not saying that that has to be me.

2. She's a blathering idiot Sis -
And she can jam her "common sense" and "values" where the sun don't shine.
The fact that people think she's the second coming makes me sick to my stomach.

4. "because I have common sense.."
Down home thinking is fine, but a higher education and a clear display of strong leadership skills is what is needed.

.."positive change in their leadership" enter Barack Obama.

11. Well, they can't be bothered with things like
substance...that's why they talk about how she connects on an 'emotional' level.

12. Yeah, that was real brilliant which ever mediawhore
thought up that one and the rest followed like little dark shadows.

My emotion is anger that the US has a "media" that's sold its soul to facism.

9. I really really do hate this woman.
Because....so many ignorant people have been taken in by her idiocy. I cannot for the life of me figure out why hundreds, thousands (or even just one)would flock to see her. Are they just plain stupid? I can't stand it, I really can't.:grr:

24. Yes, they R plain stupid.
Question is, why R they plain stupid?

Too much stupid TV from the age of 2 until now? Not enough studyin' in school?

In, supposedly, the richest country on this planet, why R they THAT MUCH plain stupid? :shrug:

A Mystery.

13. A nation of village idiots yearns for a leader that reflects them.
That's why they like any leader that's trotted out to be "plain speaking" - like Reagan. Like Bush and now like Sarah Palin.

And that's also why the media trys to help them so hard and labels Democrats as "eggheads" "elitists" "removed" "aloof" and any number of other adjectives.

18. This "spineless" thing is troubling.....
Considering the barroom bravado of the draft-dodging neocons vs. the scholarship, service, and heroisim of the recent Democratic canidates.

23. WE HAD EIGHT YEARS OF THAT CRAP, SARAH.
LOOK WHERE IT GOT US.

Ivy League schools are GOOD schools and I'm PROUD to say our President graduated from one of them.

29. Yeah, but Bush spent the next 25 years pissing all over that education.
And he didn't get into them on merit.

Our guy was the first AA editor of the Harvard Law Review. Their guy drank and smoked his way through Yale, got Cs, and spent the rest of his political career railing about "ELITIST SNOBS!".

25. She spews more word salad than a Salad Shooter spews lettuce-bits. Both are unappetizing...
There's not enough Ranch Dressing in the condiment aisle to make this compost appetizing.
