Great minds think alike.
Just noticed you used SHE'S TOAST too!
It's over for the GOP ... OBAMA IS OUR NEXT PRESIDENT IN 2008!

KarenMrsLloydRichards · 1 year ago

AP is refuting her claims! Well, will wonders never cease!!

FunMe · 1 year ago

Sarah LIES?

Well color me surprised. How apropos.

Her LIES make her perfect for the republiCON party!
She's toast.

vkobaya · 1 year ago

if you buy bridges, Sarah Palin would have you believing that that Republicans invented honesty, integrity, character, honor, decency, compassion, charity (LOL), decency, etc. Personally, I've so far managed to avoid buying any bridges. Well, not really. I panicked and voted for Gore and then Kerry. Yeah, I'll vote for Obama too, but Democrats sell you only shares in the bridge, not asking you to buy the whole bridge. So, I've never bought the whole bridge.

Concerning the national media, Brian Williams read ,in full, a statement from Joe Klein asking the media to stand firm in continuing reporting on the facts of Sarah Palin. Stand firm, yes they better stand firm because otherwise this nation is doomed where free speech is concerned

The press is getting pissed. They are not going to go along with this. Maybe there is a God? I dunno.

And, yeah, she's toast.

I told you she has been getting a free pass as a reformer for days now.

She wants to rape Alska like an 18 year o....

Never mind...you get the picture.

Got to CNN and vote in their quick vote about the speech...

grandma · 1 year ago

Commentator on CNN said she mocked community organizers and the audience laughed .....and that that is going to tick a lot of Americans off.

BLOGGING BITCH! · 1 year ago

Rudy said Obama wants more terrorism.

Palin is pretty confident that Biden and Obama are retards.

CNN poll on Palin speech:
http://www.cnn.com/

Thumbs up 43%
Thumbs down: 45%
Didn't watch 12%

houstonray · 1 year ago

there is one on MSNBC...I'm sure there is one on FOX News too...

BLOGGING BITCH! · 1 year ago

Maybe she thinks Community Organizers get paid well.

BLOGGING BITCH! · 1 year ago

Bet the press is glad McCain got that free ride.
There's a reason she feels this comfortable.

Eyeball_Kid · 1 year ago

I felt dirty after watching her speak. She was truly disturbing. I know that she was reading from words crafted by a bevy of speechwriters, at least one of which was Bush 43's speechwriter, but this was truly a call to low-brow politics all the way.

I was disturbed not only by her delivery and her rhetoric, but by the audience who seemed to think that Palin was the answer to their prayers. In my opinion, she was insulting to the independent voter, who characteristically want nothing to do with this radical right wing culture war approach to politics. Most independents now know that the time for this kind of drivel has passed, that there are far more pressing problems to be faced today.

Happy_Housewife · 1 year ago

Eyeball_Kid, it's important to remember that she was speaking to the Republican Convention. Even people that didn't agree with here - and I sure there were many in that room - have to put on an enthusiastic show.

Speaking of that, any attendance counts for Sarah's speech?

Another poll to vote in. Not looking good for Sarah.

ProgressiveTroll · 1 year ago

That poll like the CNN one, is way too close. There sure are a bunch of idiots in this country.

LunaStick · 1 year ago

Well I'm sure the repubs are saying they liked it. The fact that more don't is great news. I was afraid some would show more liking it than not. I can't find a fox poll. Maybe they are afraid of the results.

Happy_Housewife · 1 year ago

If anyone from the Obama campaign reads this, I think it would be great to release a document refuting inaccuracy she spouted this evening. Make it available in PDF format, so we can print it out and hand it around.

BLOGGING BITCH! · 1 year ago

I was just waiting for her to use the N-word. Biden's been out "discovering himself"?

I can't believe she said that!!!!

unrepentant_expat · 1 year ago

Any informed person for years has known that the only thing to come out of a republican's mouth is lies and vomit. It seems to energize their base. There is a reason that she has an eighty percent approval rating in Alaska and it's not pretty. We've got to hit her with every lie she spouts. Never forget...

"When fascism comes to America it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross." - Sinclair Lewis.

Happy_Housewife · 1 year ago

Actually, the 80% approval rating is another lie. The last rating for her was 64%. She's tracking downward, but this nomination might up it a bit.

AlaskanWoman · 1 year ago

It also never comes out that she kept the federal money after scrapping the bridge project... Also more streeeetching of the truth...What taxes did she lower here exactly? We don't have state sales taxes or income taxes in Alaska.
Wrong woman for the job!!!! Yes, she "ousted" the most unpopular govenor in history, but a trained chimp could have done so as disgusted as us citizens were with his pompous DC handling of the state. Fought corruption? Please- It was the FBI who investigated & prosecuted the corrupt legislators NOT Palin.
It is scary that the US citizens could be bamboozled by this ill-thought manipulative, hail-mary pass by McCain.

GrMtGirl · 1 year ago

Many truths remained hidden and will if one is to rely on MSM . . . This lady spells disaster if McCain gets in and dies in office. Wake up people!

I'd bet my house that she's been so shielded the last 4 days that she has no clue how she's been "vetted" again!

4 days ago Cindy was wearing a pinl cast. Tonight she was handed Bristol's baby.


No politics there.

BLOGGING BITCH! · 1 year ago

..........pink

ProgressiveTroll · 1 year ago

I thought the cast was on way to long myself. Did anyone see Cindy's interview with Katie Couric? She believes abortion should be legal. Katie pressed her on it again, but gave her a pass by saying it should be up to the states.

BLOGGING BITCH! · 1 year ago

Yaeh, I wonder how many times they've really discussed it? republicans had the House for 12 years and never once voted to end abortion.

Tom DeLay didn't have the power to get it through.......like he did those 3 Energy Reform Bills that raised gas prices?

GrMtGirl · 1 year ago

The speech was written for her . . . doesn't take too much talent after 3 days of practice to sound somewhat professional. She played to the already strong right . . . didn't help in the area of fence sitters or Independents.

McSame just clinched the nomination.

Please please Obama campaign, give us and the media talking points. Dems must saturate the airwaves and editorial pages.

Please put these liars on the defense from now til the election.

Please call out these liars over and over and don't give them a chance to breathe.

This election is the most important in our lifetimes....the Dems must win. Our democracy will not survive another radial Republican agenda.

ProgressiveTroll · 1 year ago

I saw a lot of 30 to 40 year olds. Palin does play well to the base. It doesn't matter that her speech was written by other people, it's enough to win them over after all the media's nastiness. They know her now and they love her. WTF???? These people are surely brainwashed. How can people be so stupid. Our education system really does suck.

Irish betting houses are laying odds on just how many of the will live to see the end of McCain's first term.

I saw two. They were cleaning up after the nomination vote.

cowboyneok · 1 year ago

Wow, Andrea Mitchell, tracked down a Republican California Barbie who said Palin won her over with the "security issue." BWAH hahahaaaaa! Wonder how long she practiced that reaction... Good job, Andrea, finding someone to pretend to have been won over by that lame assed LYING speech.

Oh, how sweet, she feels like Palin "spoke to her." LOL!

Andrea "That was the 'target audience.'" Yea, a DELEGATE at the convention was the TARGET AUDIENCE? LOL!

ProgressiveTroll · 1 year ago

Yeah, I just saw that. Just how the hell does she think Sarah can keep her safe???

cowboyneok · 1 year ago

She doesn't, but its a nice sound bite.

Then again, maybe she thinks Sarah can fight off Russia because she is a PTA Mom?

BLOGGING BITCH! · 1 year ago

Anyone hear the words Republican or Bush?

unrepentant_expat · 1 year ago

To listen to her speak you'd think the Democrats had been in power for the last eight years.

ProgressiveTroll · 1 year ago

The same with Mutt's speech.

ProgressiveTroll · 1 year ago

Nope, I haven't even seen many Republicans! If they are there, they are doing a good job of hiding out. Olympia Snowe is about the only one I've seen around this evening. Their little party sure is pathetic.

Reid called Palin shrill according to CNN. They are painting it as woman bashing.

I believe she has lost it in gaining what McCain needs as voters.

Most woman are much smarter than that.

FightBack · 1 year ago

Along with myself, Sarah Palin just insulted millions of hard working, well-intentioned and yes, God fearing Americans throughout this country. Her sarcasm at people involved in community groups just made my resolve to fight for a resounding Democratic victory in November all the stronger. I have been involved in community groups on a volunteer basis for more years than I care to mention..... in both small town America and big city America. Many of the millions of Americans who volunteer for these positions are not seeking fame or glory. We fight for our communities on a daily basis sometimes, as I have, to rid neighborhoods of gangs, drugs and other criminal elements. We fight developers who leave communities with broken promises and yes, we even fight for respect and action from lackluster governmental agencies. Sarah Palin, you are wrong to poke your finger in my eye and that of the millions of other true Americans. The Democrats need to jump on this issue and do it quick!

Wild_Weasel · 1 year ago

Sarah Palin trashes the tough, good and decent work of community organizers.

She's definitely an elitist.

FloridaMom · 1 year ago

I thought she had good presense and delivered well - will that help with the price of, and our dependence on oil, the record national debt, America's standing in the world, jobs going overseas, the mortgage crisis and people losing their homes, and the broken credit card industry and record personal debt, and healthcare being the #1 reason for personal bankruptcy, and the Iraq war, and the middle east, and the billions spent on the war each month, and how will we pay for it, and our dependence on China, and our struggling public school systems? I don't know.
Do those things matter to me more than the fact that she is from a small town, can relate to 'middle America', and likes guns and is pro life and is a 'hockey mom' and has 'executive experience', and can read a teleprompter well? Yes.

Wild_Weasel · 1 year ago

She TOOK the BRIDGE TO NOWHERE money.

Bottom line, she took the money. Even if she reprogrammed the pork, she still took the money, and at the same time, real bridges were falling down in the lower 48, not to mention hundreds of billions of dollars in deferred maintenance and repairs needed to America's infrastructure according to the American Society for Civil Engineers. She took the money.

alaskan · 1 year ago

She did tell the truth about one thing. She really is a pit bull.

This was her night to shine. Next, she'll take a tumble - the first time she opens her mouth on her own about anything other than Alaskan issues.

houstonray · 1 year ago

I've been wondering the same thing. Sure we hear the typical all the biographical stuff, the Alaska politics, etc, but what happens when she starts talking about the Middle East? China? Global Economy? Outsourcing? NAFTA? Health Care? Tax Reform? Health Care? She's going to be sorely out of place....

Bring it on GOP, I can't wait...

AlaskanWoman · 1 year ago

Even on Alaskan issues she is often lost without her aides spoon feeding her the facts. Somebody please...wake us up from this nightmare!

WJBaker · 1 year ago

In the written text of her speech, the word "nuclear" is spelled phonetically as "new-clear". Was that to make sure she could pronounce it correctly? Seriously.

KarenMrsLloydRichards · 1 year ago

Yep, and that's just how she pronounced it: just two syllables (not 3).

alaskan · 1 year ago

I really don't get it. Wasilla is a small town. Why does everyone in the audience look like they came straight from Wasilla? Even Cindy. I know I've seen her at the fancy store at Meta Rose Square.

That drinking game mentioned earlier doesn't work. It's 9:16 here, I'm watching a rebroadcast and getting really thirsty.

Asterix · 1 year ago

Look, Palin was the CNP (Norquist, LaHaye, etc.) candidate. She's supposed to be the "hockey mom" to generate some sort of "folks just like us" feeling among the right-wing and uncommitted electorate.

McCain's a billionaire, Obama's a smart black intellectual; Biden is a career politician and old white guy. Which would you feel comfortable going bowling with? Which would you expect to see Sunday in your church?

Now you know why she was selected. I suspect they'll use her up and jettison her when she's outlived her usefulness. She'll get a nice addition to her CV and perhaps a crack at a Congressional seat eventually in exchange. Not a bad deal--you can't buy publicity like that.

Smarmy · 1 year ago

What a national introduction for Palin: pregnant teeny bopper daughter; sarcasm and outright lies. Yup. She's a republican! They all seem to have sex problems and lying is second nature to them.

paulbe · 1 year ago

She's just been shown to us on Australian TV. She's just foul. Looks like a cross between Shania Twain and Granny from the Beverley Hillbillys. America is so fucked if this is the best that can be put up as election candidates. the Repub side though is beyond laughable. its just plain frightening. I'm sure she counts to eleven on her toes.

ShirleyGoodnessanMercy · 1 year ago

Silly Sarah's speech may well have had more lies in it than any other speech in history.

It had no substance to it at all. No undecided voter will be swayed by her shrill and pointless chatter.

freakinout · 1 year ago

She must be easy to pick out in a crowd right now, Her pants must be a blaze! The thought of her being elected and continuing the current policies, and worse, just freaks me out.

djblogista · 1 year ago

I didn't see her convention speech, BUT in her Ohio introduction speech last week, she pronounced it "Nuke-You-Ler ". This would explain why her convention text spells out the proper pronunciation.

N8ivGoddess218 · 1 year ago

IF anyone votes Rethuglikkkan, they are simply insane. Sarah has been lying to America since her first opening sentence. She has no idea what the Bush doctrine is, has 0 experience in politics and has no idea what foreign policy is. Let's face it, McCain might not even make it to spring. Do we really want this religious whackjob to be president? Iraq was part of gods' plan?? How does she know what gods' plan is? Does she have a special line to him or something? Every Christian claims to know what it is that god wants and interestingly enough, god wants exactly what they want.. Imagine that..
