RIGHT ON— On Sunday the left went bonkers after they discovered that the TelePrompter-less former Governor Sarah Palin wrote notes on the palm of her left hand for her speech to the National Tea Party Convention in Nashville. The far left absolutely freaked over this non-issue rather than focus on her brilliant speech knocking the Obama Administration’s horrid record on economics and national defense.

Today Sarah fired back…

She wrote “Hi Mom!” on her palm during her campaign stop with Governor Rick Perry of Texas.
Hah!

Here’s one of the actual photos from Daylife. It’s not a fake:

Here’s another one:

Of course, the far left is not amused.
Give this round to Sarah Palin.

More… Story Balloon has video of Sarah’s speech for Rick Perry.

Still More… Palin exposes the misogyny in the democratic base.

  1. I like the way she likes to screw with their stupid heads.

  2. Ha! The liberals over at the Dem Underground website are just fuming. I love it.

  3. Lol, brilliant. xD

  4. They had a really hideous Sunday – The Won jinxed the Colts (may he do that voodoo that he does so well in Nevada), his feminazi friends and Planned Parenthood (hey, guys feeling like somebody played ya?) look like the haters they are, then Sarah sticks it to ‘em. You go, girl!

  5. the Liberal, are they really to stupid?
    Sarah, we love you, even here in Australia.

  6. At first, I was disappointed, thinking: “Of all politicians, surely Sarah Palin should understand it is not nice to taunt those with limited cognitive function.” But then, on reflection, I realized liberals willfully embrace the role of fool.

  7. I’d like to see a political cartoon about this:

    Palin and Obama stand at podiums. Palin has a couple of notes written on her hand. Obama has a monstrous clown glove on his left hand covered in print.

    “Don’t worry Mr. President. The media will focus on Palin.”

  8. Bwahaha!

  9. Once again, Sarah proves she’s one of us. Not that any proof is neccessary. Can you imagine any of the DC Republicans doing the same? Neither can I.

  10. Jim. Please. Take the Pledge: Never EVER link to that intellectual cesspool again.

  11. This is priceless. She doesn’t even have to say a word and she can make her critics look like the fools that they are. Subtle, yet deadly.

  12. Uh hoh geez….
    That DU link was hilarious.
    They all sound like a bunch of third graders. I almost expected to to see someone saying ” Yeah….and I heard she had cooties too but the press won’t cover it “.

  13. Little known fact: Obama also writes notes on his hands, in order to remind him which teleprompters to read.

  14. Sarah is a class act…. I love her indifference to the liberal alphabet media and their hatred of her. She pulls the conservatives together like Hillary wasn’t able to do with the libs…that’s why the libs are so scared of her!

  15. They are pretty vile over there at the DU website. I noticed that their hatred of her has no real substance, they just don’t like her.

    It reminds me of the way the left defamed Katherine Harris, the FL AG during the 2000 election.

    The left has a pretty bad track record when it comes to their feelings towards GOP leaning women.

  16. 57 states? Austrian language? Profits and earnings ratio? Can’t pronounce “corps” correctly? That’s the kinda intellect I expect from a Hah-vard jeeeeeeenus!

  17. Sorry, Harris was the Florida Secretary of State, not the AG. But my opinion of the left remains the same.

  18. instant classic.

  19. $787 billion for a stimulus bill.
    $3.6 trillion for Obama’s latest budget.
    Watch liberals go into convulsions over Palin? Priceless.

  20. I’m sure it’s just a Chicago/Super Bowl thing, but as soon as I saw this, I thought of the Jim McMahon – Pete Rozelle/NFL headband feud. Palin should take a cue from Jimmy Mac and let the “Hi Mom” be the last shot. If memory serves; McMahon had JDF (Juvenile Diabetes Fund) as his parting shot. (Course, that was after the hand-scrawled “Rozelle” headband.)

  21. Rob Crawford, you are not telling the truth. He has two Secret Service people to tell him which teleprompter to read. Why two? Because you always need a backup in case one guy one can’t read.

  22. Rick and Sarah have class and sass. How about Sarah as president and Rick as vice-president in four years!

  23. I’m with #12.

    I never want to see that site again. Those folks are NIZZUTZ.

  24. First it was ‘teabaggers’, now it’s Sarah’s ‘hand job.’ What is it with the left’s obsession with juvenile sex jokes? It’s almost like those geriatric hippies never grew up.

  25. paraphrasing the sub-idiots at DU:
    “Look at her KKKristian jewelry! It’s turquoise. She spends MONEY! Lavishly! Some Christian! She looted Alaska to buy that necklace!”

    Still resisting the terrible urge to pray fervently for the delivery of smoking, sulferous meteors.

    Digress: Germany’s *people* did what they did. Not just the “government”. The people. People as evidently insane as those at DU would not hesitate to fill mass-graves with the bodies of Christians and conservatives, and it doesn’t look like it would take much urging on the part of their leadership, such as it may be.

  26. I don’t think she was taunting anyone.

    I think, just like during the Tea Party convention, that she was worried about having to remember to many talking points.

    She just didn’t want to forget to say Hi to her mother.

  27. If Walt Disney World had a mental illness ride, it would look and feel a whole lot like DU.

  28. I don’t usually troll for other websites, but if you want all the fun of mocking the DU without the nausea of actually visiting the site, I recommend dummiefunnies.com. A guy there regularly pulls some of their weirder stuff and mocks it unmercifully, but very funnily.

    Just a suggestion.

  29. “It’s almost like those geriatric hippies never grew up.”

    BINGO!

    And their kids never had the role modelling to figure out how to do it either.

  30. Wouldn’t that be “too many talking points”, genius. Oh, that’s right, being a sanctimoniuos @##hat is reserved for any semi-literate willing to illustrate their own ignorance.
    You forgot the FTW, to prove your superiority. Idiot!

  31. All The While …
    The LSM is gushing over Katie Couric’s legs.

    Even WITH his TOTUS in tow, ObaMao can’t pronounce CORE man. That right thar would be funnier ‘n when the hogs ate my little brother if SarahCuda had said it.

    Yo, Leftists … “Paranoia strikes DEEP … ”

    ~(Ä)~

  32. When will they learn. You really can’t keep this woman down.

  33. At the Tea Party Convention, Sarah said that we should inform politicians when they do something we disagree with. Then Sarah, I must inform you that you are supporting the wrong Republican candidate in our gubernatorial race. Yes, Rick Perry has done some good for Texas, but his support of toll roads is a deal breaker. His plan is to use public domain to take thousands (maybe millions) of acres of private property and give full control of it to a foreign company. He even wants to put toll booths up on existing roads. We should only have to pay for a road once. The really bad part is that we had the money for these projects and they stole it. Under Perry’s watch all our highway funds were siphoned off for other state projects. This is clearly corrupt, crony business as usual.

  34. BO would spend a press conference whining about how hard his life is and how unfair the press scrutiny is (if there actually ever was any scrutiny). Sarah demolishes them with 2 monosyllables. Who’s the genius?

  35. Write her, Will. Seriously. Call her offices.

    LOL!

  37. They make fun of someone who makes a note on her hand and yet call the man who can’t speak to a grade six class, or order a big Mac without a teleprompter a great orator? More contempt for the American people. Gotta love our media.

  38. Some of those Hippies made it to the White House.I wish Omaba had studies Economics in Harvard,in stead of Saul Alinsky.

  39. Next speaking stop, she will have “John 3:16″ on her hand.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Like a rubbernecker’s drawn to a car crash, I had to take a look at the DU link. The libtards there aren’t so much vicious as they are stupid…and grasping. Surely their lack of viciousness isn’t due to a lack of desire or a lack of effort. It’s just that there’s nothing about Palin’s “Hi Mom” to get vicious about. Idiots, the whole lot of them.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Now, off to check out dummiesfunnies.com.

  41. She’s apolitical genius that the left and the Republican elites just can’t seem to corner or destroy this one lady from Wasilla. I laughed until I was in tears when I saw her hand note, knowing full well that the lefts collective heads would explode. This my friends is Presidential timber and requires the support of all thinking loving people. She’s just priceless.

  42. Sarah’s playing the lib press like a fiddle!
    Ans she knows it.

  43. She should next mock the president and write Hi TOTUS on the hand.

  44. I cannot fathom how someone could, with a straight face, compare a few words on the palm of one’s hand with a scrolling teleprompter. And she spoke for over 30 minutes, you read those crib notes in 7 seconds.

    Anyway, I’ve concluded a more important for the Big O’s need for a teleprompter.

    He revealed it in Baltimore in the Q&A session where he proved to all of the LeftMedia that he can speak without a teleprompter.

    Without the strict guidence of the Teleprompter, The One accidently TELLS THE TRUTH.

    The Big O actually said, “And I think that some of the provisions that got snuck in might have violated that pledge. ” OOOooooooops.

    jd

  45. Only criticism from a point of view of a military aviator…

    Notes in ink on the hand for quick reference should be on the back of the hand. The palm would sweat and smear the ink in situations of stress or exertion. The back of the hand does not sweat as much and receives less rubbing in normal use, thus preserving call signs, intercept vectors and snippets of tactical data, etc.

    I see Sarah’s notes are clear and legible so I conclude that talking to and lifting up the common sense American people, is not a stressful occasion to her and, by the “Hi, Mom” retort to the unhinged left, she finds peace and fulfillment in the company of patriots.

  46. For her next public appearance, she should show up wearing Tim Tebow eyeblack complete with a Biblical reference- that’ll cause simultaneous liberal head explosions all over the country.

  47. From Bill Bennett’s show this morning, evidently prior to Palin’s closing address, the convention had been attacked with divisive media promotion. And Palin did a great job uniting the convention audience behind her rhetoric. Palin has a huge talent revving up conservative crowds. And her delivery mannerisms were very traditional, as we all bring notes to the podium when formally addressing an audience. Democrats who nag at bringing a note for reference choke on a gnat while swallowing Obama’s TOTUS camel. Only a loser must read verbatim rather than simply speak from select key words. Obama may be a fluent reader word for word, but we all know what happens when the TOTUS goes too fast for his lip service to thought.

    I watched Palin’s address online a day late, and made sure to watch her interview with Chris Wallace on FOX Sunday.

    I was disappointed that Palin’s convention address only recapitulated points already made. She did not break new ground. Furthermore, when questioned by Wallace, Palin fell back on generalities rather than stipulating specific points of contention to debunk. For instance, the initial dialogue regarding Obama’s rude manners, “telling Americans to shut up and get out of the way.” She should have brought out Obama’s instance addressing Republicans in Congress who disagreed with the Democrat Health Care legislation to just “be quiet and get out of the way.” Translating Obama’s message into common vernacular is no sin as his antipathy is too clear.

    I like Palin. And I was willing to overlook Rick Perry’s huge faults until watching the TX GOV. GOP DEBATES, hearing Perry announce that he would not change the mistakes he made if given the chance to do things over again. And to whip the “pro-life” horse as he did was unforgivable when he claimed that his executive order requiring all Texas females be vaccinated with Gardasil was not only the right thing for him to demand, but somehow proved that he was pro-life. Obama could easily claim the same pro-life stance though his own executive order requiring all Americans be vaccinated against each and every virus that pharmaceuticals produce vaccinations for, like the latest fraud WHO pandemic and American state of emergency from the so-called swine flu.

    I was interested to note that Palin supports domestic views that Rep. Ron Paul champions, stipulating that no two people see eye to eye on everything, that “there is no such thing as a perfect candidate.” By addressing the so-called Tea Party Convention (for Skoda’s profit) she should promote candidates who most closely align with the conservative and sometimes independent tea party agenda that FIGHTS GOVERNMENT CORRUPTION. Texas Tea Party GOP county chairperson and successful business woman Debra Medina is campaigning against both Perry and Hutchison for the TX governor’s race.

    Debra Medina deserves attention from national figures who presume to support the people’s revolution to unite upon our Constitution to preserve states’ and citizens’ rights and to disembowel government fraud. When Texan viewers see the criticisms that Perry and Hutchison lodge against each other, note well that those faults are NOT Medina’s, but represent career politicians’ corruption. Rather, only Medina has the intestinal fortitude to fight using the Constitution to preserve our Liberty and Unity, live within budget promoting TEXAN businesses to strengthen our state economy to benefit our citizenry, and limit our state taxation below 10% based ONLY upon consumption–no income tax and rescind property taxation.

  48. Dave, best idea I’ve read all day. That would make the left just FREAK.

  49. She is “reloaded” with both barrels! I love how she makes the left look even more looney (if that is possible)!
    Sometimes silence is golden and this is one of those moments! Go Sarah!

  50. How is a woman who campaigns for Perry AND McCain supposed to be some anti-establishment Tea Party icon??? Becareful of what substance is behind her.

  51. You have love the way Governor Palin sticks it to the goose stepping thugs of Obama Nation!!!

    Thus, in honor of the Moonbats I quote Sun Tzu, “If your enemy is of choleric temper, irritate him.”

    Lest I forget, these are the same handmaidens of Comrade Zero, the charlatan who needs a teleprompter to speak to 6th graders!!!!!!!

  52. We have a President who can’t take a dump without his Teleprompter telling him.

    We have a President who emms and arrrs like a drunken Leahy when he’s off teleprompter.

    We have a President who uses a teleprompter and raised stage in a 6th grade classroom.

    Yet I noted that Sarah gave her entire speech referring only to notes on the lectern. I did not see her using a teleprompter.

    She looked down, looked up, and looked the American people straight in the eye.

    And you know what the leftist DOUCHE BAGGERS and the lumpen Marxetariat are screeching about:

    During a Q&A she glanced at her hand once where she had written THREE BULLET points to remember to mention.

    Now had she said CORPSEMAN instead of Core Man … well, I guess we would never heard the end of it from the crazed Douche Baggers.

    Conservatives thank God for the loons on DUmmies. Keep it up boys.

    Palin plays you humorless jerks like a violin.

  53. Becareful of what substance is behind her.

    Yes, let’s make sure there isn’t something nefarious behind her winking. It’s obviously a signal to proceed with the coup of the Tea Party Movement. I can hardly wait for the black helicopters. Two for one special on your AFDB!

  54. Who cares if she wrote on her hand. Everyone uses notes when they have to speak. Its too bad though that she had to be such a hypocrite about Obama’s use of the teleprompter.

  55. “Yes, let’s make sure there isn’t something nefarious behind her winking. It’s obviously a signal to proceed with the coup of the Tea Party Movement. I can hardly wait for the black helicopters. Two for one special on your AFDB!”

    I’m not saying it’s nefarious. I’m saying that if she’s such a rebel, then why is she backing the establisment candidates and not the Tea Partyish candidates? Gee, you mean politicians say one thing and do another? I’m saying don’t be so quick to go gaga over her like the left did Obama. You’re left with a vapid empty suit for a leader.

  56. Dave, #50 -

    God idea! Or maybe something like “Look, Mom! No Totus!”

    Lol.

    I bet the next Palin rally will have slogans written on hands instead of signs…

  57. Last should be “Good” idea, ;)

  58. “Palin plays you humorless jerks like a violin.”

    Actually she’s playing her supporters. You’ll figure it out eventually. Try taking off the blinders.

    says a humorless jerk. you’ll figure it out eventually. try putting your brain back in.

  60. i think thats piper writing that on her hand

  61. God I love Sarah Palin!! She knows how to tweak the crap out of the left. The hi mom thing is classic. Her line when she said “how’s that whole “hopey-changey” think working out for”? I was on the floor. I was laughing and crying at the same time. That was a direct attack to the Obamatrons. I WANT THIS WOMAN AS MY PRESIDENT COME 2012!!!!

  62. maverick:

    Aside from beating the Longhorns at the Red River Shootout (stick it, PC media), my hope for Texas this year is a strong commitment to actually push back on the 10th Amendment / State Sovereignty. That seems to be shaping up as a major factor in our own races for governor and attorney general. From up here Perry has sounded like he’s serious. Has Medina held any state offices before? If it gets tense between the feds and the states, will she be able to navigate through the dangerous political waters as well as a more seasoned politician?

    Since returning to the Constitutional allocation of rights and powers is the only way to fix the mess we’re in, commitment to the 10th Amendment trumps, for me, toll roads and a lot of other faults and blemishes. Of course, since I’m not a Democrat, I can only root from the sidelines instead of voting in both states.

  63. NeoKong,

    They all sound like a bunch of third graders. I almost expected to to see someone saying ” Yeah….and I heard she had cooties too but the press won’t cover it “.

    In case you have not noticed the “Liberals/progressives/populists” (or whatever they are calling themselves this week) have always behaved like a bunch of spoiled brat third graders. In a great part I think that is why they so hated Reagan, G.W. Bush and now Sarah Palin. They do not like it when they are confronted with adults that will not cave in to their temper tantrums and give them everything they want.

    As for “cooties” they have been invoking that in their own special way. See their continued comments about Palin’s son who has Down’s syndrome for an example of that.

    Will,

    Apparently you do not know the records of either KBH or Bill White.

    Either way, for the foreseeable future we will need a governor that will tell Obamao and the Corruptocrats to go to hell and KBH nor that Libertarian Medina have the intestinal fortitude to do so. Bill White certainly will not, in fact he will turn the entire state into an illegal alien haven just like he did with Houston.

    I bet you sat at home in 2008 because you couldn’t hold your nose and vote for McCain, too. If you did you, in essence, voted for Obamao.

    isaac,

    You do not understand it because you are little more then a Corruptocrat Troll. Go back to the fever swamps of the “reality-based community” where you belong.

  64. Liberals aka dumb-o-rats aka the elites defy the gravity of human intellect – they see what we commoners cannot. Sssh…. behind those alphabets (Hi Mom) are some secret codes that only elites in the lame-stream media will be able to dissect. Let me take a guess, the code might be (Hi) H=Hussien, i=is, (Mom) M=most, o=obvious, m=moron.

  65. Jack Okie,

    Medina’s been actively involved in politics both local and national for years, doing the heavy lifting backstage. If you find their debates online to view, you’ll be surprised as we all were at how strong Medina stands with her knowledge of how our government operates, as she’s been actively involved for decades.

    All of the political ads referencing Perry and Hutchison prove the corruption of those career politicians, and support the best choice as Governor to be Medina now.

    There’s good reason that Texans don’t historically re-elect a governor longer than two terms. It gets too easy for career politicians to corrupt. And truly, it is no small civil rights matter that Perry issued an executive order requiring the population to take a vaccine that has no long-term follow up records, and does create recognized serious complications and death. And it is no small economic matter for wage earners forced to use of ONE MILE of our local toll road each day in commute to cost $50.00 each month (the established safe non-toll highway was destroyed/reconstructed into toll highway with extremely dangerous merging circumstances that provide no distance/time to instantly change over two lanes in heavy traffic). Maybe Oklahoma is flat with an established gridwork of alternative roads en route for commuters as in the PHX metropolitan area where timed lights actually function @ 45 mph through downtown. NOT SO IN CENTRAL TEXAS.

    Since Perry swore he wouldn’t abandon his governorship to run for another office in 2012, referencing God as his witness, he promised he wouldn’t be running for POTUS then. So either he’s telling the truth that he would never accept another public office than Governor of Texas, and would not change his mind after being forced by public outcry to abandon and will repeat his offenses in office, or he is a blatant liar with political aspirations to become the next POTUS. Either way, given the choice to elect Debra Medina and have a politically experienced new and uncorrupted governor, I’ll vote for the stronger Tea Party conservative who doesn’t rabble rouse for secession from the Union for affect like Perry did.

  66. isaac #66

    A brilliant synopsis regarding Palin and the Tea Party Zeitgeist is composed by C. Edmund Wright @ American Thinker. Highlights below, but link to read his cogent points:

    For Sarah Palin and many others, the Tea Party movement is precisely about reversing all of that nonsense. Thus, in this context, Bush Republicanism must be ignored and replaced. Talk of a third party must be swatted aside. The imminent threat is the liberal agenda, period. … While dismissing loyalty to party for party’s sake, her vision of the future is clearly one where limited government proponents win primaries leading up to the midterms of 2010. With a clear rejection of the “both parties are equally bad” dogma, she is referring to Republican primaries. …Obviously she was trying to tie the angst with Wall Street to crony capitalism via “Washington picking winners and losers.” She also once mentioned wanting “government out of the way.” …It is vital that Palin becomes stronger and more cogent on this than she was Saturday. As we know, the bumbling fumbling non-ideological McCain campaign only served to muddy these issues. … While some Tea Party goers were hung up on single issues like TARP or immigration or AIG bonuses or even NAFTA, they were in the minority. Not everyone held passions consistent with the Santelli inspiration or with Palin’s emphasis, but it is beyond debate that the heart of the movement is a conservative pro-business, pro self-reliance anti-big government sentiment. And with this maturation of the movement and its new place in the spotlight, more message coherence is going to be needed. It cannot be all things to all people forever, though some of that dynamic was no doubt instrumental in some of the large early crowds. Palin is the most natural leader of this leaderless-by-design movement. Her keynote speech was a good — but not great — start to the philosophical distillation process necessary. This movement is all about the Constitution, and the most recent historically successful manifestation of this thinking was the Reagan Revolution. Palin instinctively understands that and made that clear. This is good. …

    http://www.americanthinker.com/2010/02/sarah_palin_and_the_tea_party.html

  67. I see anonymous up there is all wee wee’d up because Palin “acts like this all the time just to be cute”. If you put yourself out there with some dumb ass position on a speaker taking notes to a podium, and then get mocked, well man up and take your lumps.

    And of course the DU commenters also got worked up about “Christian jewelry” that Palin was wearing. Well some folks wear a cross–and others wear gang tattoos.

  68. #85

    The only ones being “played” are Obamao worshiping fools like you. You should learn from history what happens to people like you and your ilk once you have served your purpose. Look up the name Ernst Rohm.

  69. Love it. Go girl.

    Maddow is probably going crazy (I wonder what her “partner” is thinking- would rather have Palin as a partner) as is Matthews and Olberman

  70. Sarah Palin also wrote in the backs of the moonbats….”KICK ME!”

    Love that woman. Tim Tebow added insult to injury with the Super Bowl ad. The ENTIRE world now knows what insolent creeps the “progressive left” are, and the majority in America are pointing and laughing at how dumb they truly are.

    It’s funmy and sad at the same time.

  71. funmy?? I meant funny, of course. :)

  72. This is brilliant! Let’s push the liberals to insanity.

  73. “God you people are stupid.

    It’s the content of the notes you imbecile.”

    Project, much?

    Bigot.

  74. I was actually disappointed with what she wrote. When I write on my poor man’s “Palm Pilot” it usually says things like “Get ammo.”

  75. Palin is a joke. Yes, she is an entertainer but nothing else. She might be very conservative but please let someone else lead us that knows politics. She even embarrassed McCain when she was running for V.P. All of you conservatives that like her need to wake up. We are in trouble if she runs for President. She will embarrass us once again.

    Oh, lookie! Another concern troll.

  77. That is what I am talking about. Please say something with substance….maybe something that sounds like you have some type of education.

  78. anon — “God you people are stupid.”

    Speaking of stupid, and the references here to that cringe-worthy moment: Barry’s very own “corpseman” — it got me thinking. Surely someone close to POTUS with TOTUS heard him mispronounce it.

    So maybe you could tell us: why did no one correct him? I mean, anyone with a brain would have wanted to prevent him from looking like a fool. Or stupid.

    Oh, but wait..this is the Narcissist in Chief we’re talking about. They’d know the fallout would have been pretty ugly…yeah, I’ll bet eyes were bugging out, they’re all looking at one another, like, “should we?” – “you wanna do it?” —

    Or then there’s always the possibility they thought “corpseman” sounded just fine.

  79. Aunt Madder….you are like all other Palin followers. Have nothing of substance and say the dumbest things.

  80. I’m not saying it’s nefarious. I’m saying that if she’s such a rebel, then why is she backing the establisment candidates and not the Tea Partyish candidates? Gee, you mean politicians say one thing and do another? I’m saying don’t be so quick to go gaga over her like the left did Obama. You’re left with a vapid empty suit for a leader.

    Please provide the checklist of rebel criteria down to the local zoning ordinances required prior to backing a regional candidate. Since the Tea Party is supposedly comprised of a wide spectrum of political views, you’ll probably not agree on every issue. But who knows, your list may be the exception. And for the record, I don’t go gaga over anyone, but I do accept the fact that anyone running for office isn’t required to meet my individual litmus test for perfection.

    Vote for Sam Drucker, Hooterville Postmaster—he delivers!

  81. Palin is a joke. Yes, she is an entertainer but nothing else. She might be very conservative but please let someone else lead us that knows politics. She even embarrassed McCain when she was running for V.P. All of you conservatives that like her need to wake up. We are in trouble if she runs for President. She will embarrass us once again.

    Please point out the substance in your comment, and maybe, just maybe, someone will take you seriously. And I think John McCain embarrassed himself by stating he really didn’t understand economics, and then suspending his campaign to address the economic meltdown. But your mileage may vary.

    Oh, I got two words for you regarding a vice presidential joke—Joe Biden! Thank goodness we dodge that Palin bullet, when you have a circus you need clowns.

  82. Must be a Palin thread. The trolls converge.

    It is because their morals are on a rather low level.

    These notes on the Gov. Palin’s hands reminds me of something that Slick Willy actually told me just a few months after his disasterous nominating speech of Dukakis. He said that 10 minutes prior to him making the speech the Dukakis people came to him with all kinds of stuff they wanted him to include in the speech. He said it completely messed him up.

    Maybe he should have written on his hands.

    Either way, it wasn’t going to help Dukakis.

  87. I don’t understand why trolls like “Conservative Mama” don’t know that we already have seen that trick many times. He/she isn’t the first to come as a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

  88. whoever/conservative mama

    Buzz off, troll!

  89. Sarah Palin, who cares!? She’s a nobody.

  90. Um, you do realize that Sarah used a teleprompter for her speech. She apparently needed to be reminded of her conservative principles (lower taxes, energy, lift spirits) for her Q&A after the speech. Liberals are not fuming; they are laughing. And it is humorous that you mock Obama for using teleprompters (which all politicians use) but don’t forget his performance with the Republican caucus. Do you think Sarah could do as well? I suppose she now knows what magazines she reads.

    You know what . . . I watched her whole speech and don’t remember a teleprompter. I do remember that she looking something on the podium. She appeared to have notes to use, not just her hand notes.

    There are 2 ways people learn to speak: 1) Clue words: words that spark what you want to cover at that point. It makes it more spontaneous without losing your points; 2) Scripted speech: this requires a teleprompter or at least notes that are on paper in rather large print. This is the method used by B.O. When I speak, I use method #1.

  93. but don’t forget his performance with the Republican caucus.

    Oh, you mean the one where he took questions, and gave answers to questions that weren’t asked. Yes, I’m sure that appeared brilliant to a kool-aid drinking moobat, but I don’t watch MSLSD to form my opinions. I read the transcript instead.

  94. HI MOM!!!!

    Memorandum from Totus to Palin’s Hand

    From: TOTUS (Teleprompter of the United States)

    To: Sarah Palin’s Hand

    Subject: Memorandum

  96. I like the way her popularity soars the lower her perceived IQ is among her supporters. They’ll nominate her for president (on the spot!) the day she admits that she reads at a third grade level. That’s their kinda gal!

  97. There are no longer any standards in the GOP…just look nice in heels.

  98. Voting “present” seems to be the dhimmicrat standard.

    Well, B.O.’s perceived IQ turned out really wrong. There are still people who think B.O. is smart. Thankfully the number of people who think he is smart is less and less.

    Maybe Dems/lefties are getting smarter. Nah . . . that would mean they actually open up their mind and quit being robots.

  100. Oh, and you B.O. supporters . . . “corpse-men” vs. “corps men” . . . LOL!!!

  101. “57″ states . . . LOL!!!

  102. Having heard Time mag ..Joe kline say that teaparties are hateful and Sara is hateful, I am wondering if the left, truly knows what hateful is…..they speak with such venom and Sara keeps laughing and making fools out of them while she rallies the troops

  103. J, do you speak Austrian? Bwhahahahaha!!!

  104. Wow! A cut fight worthy of 3rd graders and a lot of talk about substance from those who don’t offer any. Needed: better trolls.

  105. $10 bucks says Olbie & Maddow will be playing the “hand job” angle tonight – and of course through in a few teabagging references.

  106. OUCH!!!

    Tea Party Majority

    Scott Rasmussen finds that 75% of likely voters are either “very angry” or “somewhat angry” about the federal government’s current policies. A plurality of 45% are “very angry,” up nine points since September. A mere 19% say they are not very or not at all angry about the federal government’s policies.

    That’s a lot of anger for the Democrats to overcome between now and November.

    http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2010/02/025549.php

  107. Let me get this straight – you’re finding fault with lefties mocking Palin’s hand notes FOR AN INTERVIEW, whilst you made such a big deal out Obama using a teleprompter for speeches – like any other President.

    Your line makes no sense.

    If you’re trying to suggest Obama is stupid, then how do you explain his complete, off-the-cuff decimation of the House Republicans last week?

  108. #131 I think the teleprompter references were regarding the President’s reliance on teleprompters when speaking before a class of 6th graders and a staff meeting. And the decimation you refer to is certainly a matter of opinion. Try not to be so confused.

  109. He (or she) who laughs last……..

    Talk to the Hand, not to the TelePrompter

    The crew of braying jackasses on Morning Joe today had much merriment with Sarah’s crib notes, as they continue to whistle past the graveyard of the coming annihilation of the Democrat Party this fall. And CNN explicitly compared Sarah’s palm to the TelePrompter of the United States. (No, this clip is not from The Onion.)

    So… Hand vs. TOTUS – you be the judge!

    http://bigjournalism.com/fross/2010/02/08/talk-to-the-hand-not-to-the-teleprompter/#more-20586

  110. Why do so many of the leftists’ talking points require them to overlook obvious distinctions and show themselves up as idiotic?

    There is a difference between having a few phrases written down to remind you of the things you want to discuss, and having the entire speech presented to you so that all you have to do is read it and not even think about what you’re saying. Obama does the second thing, and I suspect he doesn’t even think about what he’s saying, and that’s probably why he said “corpseman” instead of “corpsman”, not once, but twice in the same speech.

    And trolls do love their strawmen. We’re not laughing about Obama using a teleprompter AT ALL; we’re laughing about Obama using a teleprompter ALL THE FREAKING TIME. He had two of the damned things set up in a sixth-grade classroom for God’s sake. What speech is he going to give in a sixth-grade classroom that’s so very damned important that he has to have a teleprompter to make extra-sure he doesn’t screw it up? He isn’t giving the State of the Union address there, for crying out loud.

    Sarah scares Progressive Dems to death because to
    them she represents the “handwriting on the wall”!!

  112. Sheep following Obama. Sheep following Palin. What’s the difference between a sheep? Get a life, people.

  117. She should have written… Hi Andrea & Joe

  118. It’s always fun to watch Sarah Palin ripping off the rubes who hang on her every single syllable word.

    I’m glad y’all have each other. You deserve each other.

  119. BTW, kids, this liberal loves Sarah Palin and hopes she gets the GOP nomination. Get her on TV more, please. To 71% of Americans, she is the equivalent of nails on a blackboard.

    But, sadly, I don’t think she will ever seek office again. She is now a multi-millionaire celebrity with a best-selling book, a sweet gig on Faux News and a six-figure speaking fee, even when she’s among her pals the teabaggers. Why would she sacrifice all that loot and be required to report all of her income? Why would she put her family under the microscope again when they handled it so poorly the last time? Why would she want to do the hard work of preparing to lead and govern when she couldn’t even hack a full term as governor of a backwoods state with barely 600,000 citizens?

    I hope I’m wrong. Sarah is great news for progressive politics. But her behavior since the old man put her on the national stage suggests she is all about the benjamins, folks. Your Joan of Arc is more Gordon Gekko.

  120. This little girl from Alaska is proving to be something of a modern day “Annie Oakley”. She has more spunk than all the Republican’s in Congress combined…I love how the power players in the media and Washington try to destroy her…And, in the process they are destroying themselves…God love this woman…

    Obvious troll is obvious.

  122. I am not a troll, goofball. I have stated clearly that I am a liberal progressive. But thanks for addressing my post. I sometimes forget that for way too many conservatives, the ability to read beyond a bumper sticker is a bridge too far.

    And Scott? Take a deep breath, pal. How is criticizing a half-term governor who cannot even remember three talking points “destroying” the power brokers? And has it slipped your mind that Our Lady of Wasilla IS the media these days after signing her contract with Faux? Are you that naive? Or do you not consider Faux the media?

    I like the Annie Oakley comparison, though I’m pretty sure she didn’t shoot things from a helicopter.

  123. Liberal heads explode because Sarah wrote a couple of notes in her palm…Yet, does anyone one feel like Obama is watching a tennis match with every speech he gives? He obviously is afraid of facing the camera’s as he jumps back and forth between his two teleprompters…Wow! That’s impressive delivery…He’s become a caricature of himself…

  124. “To 71% of Americans, she is the equivalent of nails on a blackboard.”

    As a recovering liberal and registered lifelong democrat, and now a registered Independent, Please by all means ignore that Mr. Obama is making sure the democrat is a dirty word.

    I will be supporting Sarah Palin should she ever run. I am ashamed to be even an EX-democrat at this point. These people are lunatics and should not be trusted with any power.

    I am counting the days until it is November.

    –a disgusted now former democrat

  125. Bordo, yes she is destroying those who mock her…Why, because Americans are smart enough to see that the Lame Stream Media and Washington elites sacrifice their integrity in an attempt to smear her…It only strengthens her position…Get some popcorn and watch the show…By the way, I equate liberal progressives with communists. I spent a good deal of my life working to defeat communism. Go away!!!!

  126. I doubt very seriously you are actually a disgusted former Democrat, but I’ll play your game with you. (BTW, I am a current disgusted Democrat because we won by a significant majority and my guys are pussying out to a bunch of losers on the right, but there you go.)

    Are you honestly saying you would vote for someone this, er, dumb? Didn’t the disaster of eight years of W. illustrate to you the dangers of electing not bright people? And at least Bush had excellent advisers and strategists around him and he still screwed up on a monumental basis.

    It’s okay to oppose Obama and the Democrats, but do you really favor backing someone who is just stupid? Wouldn’t Mitt Romney, who has actually governed with style and grace, be a better choice? Or Mike Huckabee? At least he didn’t quit office in mid-stream to cash in.

    What, exactly, is it about Mrs. Palin that you admire? That she’s “jes folks?” Jes folks are great neighbors, but do you want one with access to nuclear codes? Or, like Mrs. Palin, are you anxious for the “end days?”

  127. Scott,

    I only wish I could play poker with you. You’d be going home in your Jockey shorts. Now would you please answer my question instead of throwing your pablum around the room?

  128. Your description of Sarah Palin as epically, cataclysmically, apocalyptically stupid isn’t enhancing your credibility. Would your name in real life be Steve Schmidt, by any chance?

  129. To the ignorant troll on this board,

    moderate dems are fleeing or have fled the lunatic radical democrat’s party. Millions like me who voted for Gore, Kerry, every freaking candidate with a “D” after them are now Independents.

    Will I vote for all conservatives or as close as I can in November? YOU BETCHA!

    don’t belive there are millions of us? hillbuzz.org is just one such site. There are many many more like it.

    Please by all means, live in your deluded world, and then on November 3rd, go on over to DU and Daily Kooks and whine about how stupid Americans are for giving patriot conservative Americans their votes.

    Personally, I really don’t care or want to justify to an ignorant person as yourself.
    I get enough crap from the DNC asking me for money, and I send them my receipts of my donations to Sarah Palin and Scott Brown.

    Keep living in your bubble dear, I am old enough to remember JFK democrats, this is now the party of Karl Marx.

  130. Good for you, Sarah! Thanks for being our voice and fighting for America.

    Great Tea Party Convention speech! Thank you, Sarah!
    1. Obama must stop lecturing and start listening.
    2. Americans are rejecting his socialist agenda.
    3. Biden holds a transparency meeting that’s closed to the press and public.
    4. Obama, Pelosi, and Reid’s excessive spending is bankrupting America.
    5. Debt is $12.3 trillion, 2010 budget is $3.6 trillion, 2011 budget is $3.8 trillion.
    6. Obama’s health reform real cost is $2.5 trillion over 10 years.
    7. Cap and Trade Carbon Tax increases electricity costs $2,000 to $3,000 per household per year.
    8. Stimulus bill, $850 billion, no jobs created, only spends 7% for infrastructure, creates expensive mandated programs that state’s cannot afford.
    9. Obama wants a second stimulus bill to waste and misspend more money. Why didn’t the first stimulus work?
    10. America must use all of it’s energy sources to reduce the $700 billion per year spent on foreign oil. If half of that money was spent on developing our offshore and onshore oil and natural gas reserves it would create thousands of jobs and inject billions of dollars into our economy.
    11. Abdulmutallab, underwear bomber, only questioned for 50 minutes is a travesty.
    12. Iran is enriching uranium to build a nuclear bomb. Sanctions should have been imposed months ago.

    Uh, your guys have a majority, doofus. They’re wussing out to members of their own party.

    …Bush had excellent advisers and strategists around him and he still screwed up on a monumental basis…

    How many quarters of sustained economic growth did Bush give us? Can’t count that high? Obama has consistently given us negative economic growth, tripled the deficit, doubled unemployment…and you are championing the Clintonian retreads who are helping him ram the country over a cliff? Axelrod’s biggest resume brag is how he covered up Edwards’ love child.
    ——————————————–
    What, exactly, is it about Mrs. Palin that you admire?

    She actually ran a state, for beginners. She understands the constitution, the foundation of liberty, and free markets. Your boy will never get any of those, because he despises the U.S. and all that it is based upon.

  132. Are you honestly saying you would vote for someone this, er, dumb? Didn’t the disaster of eight years of W. illustrate to you the dangers of electing not bright people? And at least Bush had excellent advisers and strategists around him and he still screwed up on a monumental basis.

    And just what did he screw up without Democrat Party spin? 9/11 falls at the feet of the failures of Slick Willy’s administration. The 9/11 Commission proved that one.

    The surge worked.

    Iraq no longer has the death and rape rooms. There is now a country heading toward freedom that they have not known in more than a generation.

    National debt after the disaster of 9/11 was actually decreasing until the Democrats took control of Congress in 2007.

    CRA was not something that came under President Bush’s watch. That came under Carter and its power increased under Slick Willy. CRA was the reason for the housing implosion. 17 times President Bush went to Congress in 2006 alone asking for more regulation of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and the Democrat loud mouths like Waters and Fwank screamed to the roof tops . . . “racism!”.

    Your hero, B.O., voted “yes” on the 2009 budget he now condemns.

    So, please take your “talking points” back to where they came from . . . be it, Kos Kids, DUmmies or the DNC.

  133. It is amazing how just Gov. Palin’s name brings out the trolls and such hatred. Unbelievable.

    And Bordo . . . here is how smart your hero is . . . “57 states” . . . “corpse men” . . . LOL

  134. bordo is but another paid acolyte…The communists paid for professional protesters for decades…Americans now have to listen to shills paid for with taxpayer dollars…Not to worry, it will all end soon enough as states abandon the Washington necropolis…Free speech as practiced on the internet, not the lamestream media, and the second amendment will forever confound the wannabee collectivists of Obama and the Democrats ilk…They will rot in their own hell as the Soviets learned…Good riddance!!!

  135. I know a kid who did this on a High School Test. He got kicked out then and there. I went to a strict high school, but Seriously I thought who does that in High School.

    hmm..

  136. I never cease to be amazed at how willing right-wingers are to embrace stupidity.

  141. When or if she ever becomes president, I hope she gets a custom made teleprompter in the shape of a hand, just to piss off the leftists. And she could also get a special set for MSM appearances that features only one finger raised.

  142. Hahahaha… It is surely not the same to write down some ideas for a speech, than have the speech written before for you to read before your audience.

    Mrs. Palin is really refreshing in her way to cope with critics.
    :lol:

  143. the woman is sure is dumb

  144. the woman is sure is dumb

    And Joe Biden is brilliant? He thought “jobs” was a three letter word. Mosy likely, he doesn’t even know what the word means!

  145. I can understand all the fuss, I didn’t know she could read let alone write as well.
    What an amazing feat.

  146. “First it was ‘teabaggers’, now it’s Sarah’s ‘hand job.’ What is it with the left’s obsession with juvenile sex jokes?”

    Hey Wright,

    After the former Alaskan governor teabagged the left with “Hi Mom” on her hand, many of them felt in need of a good hand job. :D

  147. Two words: childish moron

  148. I don’t see how this is a win for Palin. She is specifically singling out Obama for using a teleprompter, when she can’t even remember she needs to talk about “Tax”?

    She got caught red (or black) handed, and this is her response? To make a joke that highlights the fact that she is a vapid idiot who can’t remember to talk about “LIFTING AMERICAN SPIRITS”

    Let alone the fact it’s bad enough to write them in the first place, but the fact that she actually needed to stop and very noticeably reread her own four words, is beyond pathetic. I could cheat better in second grade, you think she would be able to remember to talk about BUDGETS…

    It was bad enough that the white house lackey tried to make a joke out of this, but this response from the culprit is slightly unnerving. The duplicity and hypocrisy is pretty thick in there.

  149. Sara Palin is an idiot. She better have it written on her hands or she won’t remember it. Maybe she wouldn’t get so much flack if she didn’t citiicize everyone else all the time. As far as I am concerned she can stay on television and leave running the country up to someone who has more brains than her.

  150. People thought this was funny? Must appeal to an older generation because that is the worst comeback ever. Seriously, I’m a republican… and just…. crickets.

  151. Amazing, as always. The right-wingnuts take a stand on “family values” then excuse the adulterers in Congress when they fail the test. Then they criticize the President for using a teleprompter, but excuse Palin for using her hand to remember her “priorities.” (Excuse me, but if they’re really priorities, she should be able to remember them without crib notes. Finally, Palin criticizes Rahm Emanual for using the word “retard,” but excuses Rush Limbaugh’s use of the word.

    Wow. How much more convoluted and dishonest can you get? Oh, right – lots more. Kind of like all the things the Republicans were for until the President embraced them. Now they’re against them. Go ahead and chase your tails, friends. It will help clean up the gene pool.

  152. OK, here is why it’s a big deal that Palin had to write on her hand:
    Sarah Palin did not have to look at her hand during her speech, but rather during the interview afterward. This means that, when asked a basic question, she was unable to remember any of the three talking points she had written down. Now, lets assume she could remember on her own to “lift American Spirits” that means there were only two things to remember and she could remember neither of them during a softball interview session. This is a big deal. We have a woman, the de facto leader of a party, who cannot remember two simple things. She has been giving this speech for years and cannot remember her own two talking points without looking at her hand?

    Obama does use a teleprompter, just as Palin uses notes, during a speech. Abe Lincoln used notes, the 19th century version of the teleprompter, at Gettysburg, and that speech was shorter than most.This is because a speech has nuances which cannot be remembered word for word by anyone. One would hope that a speech given to the American people would include more than a bunch of easily-remembered (by most, Palin excepted) catch phrases. But when Obama is interviewed, he doesn’t need notes on his hand to show at least a basic understanding of an issue.

    The additional irony of Palin having notes on her hand while criticizing a person for reading off a teleprompter is self-evident to any thinking person.

  153. From the Huffington Post no less.

    Jon Stewart Mocks Obama For Using Teleprompter In Sixth Grade Classroom

    While the White House has denied that President Obama used the teleprompter set up in a sixth grade classroom to address students, Jon Stewart is pretty sure it’s a bad visual no matter what the excuse. Even if the TPOTUS wasn’t in use, did he really need the podium and presidential seal, too?

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/01/26/obama-teleprompter-sixth-grade-video_n_436406.html

  154. And lest we forget:

    ‘Corpsman up!,’ TelePrompTer down!

  156. Oh look! It’s not the first time President Brainiac has mispronounced corpsman.

    Perhaps his speeches should be written phonetically. Maybe not since he’s so “clean and well-spoken”.

    http://michellemalkin.com/2010/02/10/video-flashback-obama-botched-corpseman-before/

  157. No, the liberals are well-pleased by this. We find it heartening that you’ve taken to learnin’ your letters.

  158. At least she didn’t have to cross anything out this time.

    If you’re a former Republican GOVERNOR yet still have to write “Cut Taxes” on your hand for an interview, it’s pretty obvious that you need to find a new career – perhaps something more in line with your mental abilities, like building picnic tables or birdhouses.

    No surprise that many other fools are happy to defend this one, or to applaud a “comeback” every bit as pathetic & moronic as the original folly – a sharp intellect is no longer a positive value but a symptom of the dreaded disease known as Elitism, whereas a predilection to engage in the worst frat-boy idiocy can now get you your own television series.
