Fox News’ Greta von Susteren spends a good portion of the first part of her lengthy interview with Sarah Palin asking about the clothes Palin and her family wore on the campaign trail, but the Alaska governor also addresses several other rumors and “oddities” that circulated before the election.

My, my, my… the “vetting” of Ms. Sarah.  Look, the Republicans KNEW they couldn’t steal this election…. so, they decided to vet Palin now… do you see…they’re vetting her.  Oh yeah, that’s what this is about.  Notice Palin’s “sincerity” isn’t it just a little over the top.  C’mon this is a person who is claiming she wished she would’ve had a chance to address the supposed smears.  YET, when she had her turn at the mike, said Obama was “palling around with terrorists”.  Why didn’t she speak up THEN, since according to her she was “off script”.

Listen to her “walk the walk and talk the talk” rhetoric.(They must read TD)  The problem is Ms. Sarah…. you can’t walk the talk and talk the walk and expect people to ante up.

Palin is a dangerous person as far as America is concerned.  Strange….  Why not any questions about Palin’s exorcism?  Why no questions as to Palin’s crazy church?  Why no questions as to how a person supposedly as discerning as Palin DIDN’T QUESTION how her wardrobe materialized?  Does this mean that, say… some rogue element offers up some fancy underpants Palin will “assume” it’s just part of what “the worlds like”?

Mark this one, she is the anti-thesis to the American Experiment.  This is the “other/true” vetting of Palin.

ALASKA….DO NOT RE-ELECT PALIN IN ANY CAPACITY.

The woman is a flaming moron. She says nothing. And Greta should be banned to Alaska for sucking up to Palin!

Why would ANYONE want someone “like me” in the White House? Wouldn’t anyone with a breath of life want an educated, intelligent, thinker? Instead of a grinning idiot who ramles on about nothing?

Your comment made me laugh as my 17 year old son told his AP History teacher almost the same thing last week. While talking about the election, the teacher asked what was wrong with Palin….my kid’s answer was that she opened her mouth and talked every time a camera was rolling.

OK…I only lasted 1 minute 45 seconds in the first one…she said “the clothes” like, um like, see like 50 million times like…I bet when the kids forget to do something she badgers them until its done…doesn’t say a word except “Geez, I wish those dishes were done.” “Mom, can I call Suzy about my homework assignment.” “Geez, I wish those dishes were done.” “Mom, just wanted you to know that I love you.” “Hmmm, I wonder who is going to do the dishes.” “Mom, I cut off my finger on the meat cleaver as I was doing the dishes.” “Well, hmm, I guess we’ll get it sewn back on after the dishes are done.”

QUOTE by Hippy Pam:

“She NEEDS to go back to her little town and be a PARENT to her children…She NEEDS to teach them about honor…sexual abstinence[or contraception]...consequences of drunk driving and partying…AND MOST IMPORTANT!!!!!She needs to take care of “her” D.S. child….It CANNOT be in that babies best interest to be “STARFISHED” across “pitlips” chest or “baby sat” by it’s “sister” while “mama” goes for the gold…...I HAVE SEEN A LOT IN 61 YEARS-THIS IS NEGLECT AND CHILD ENDANGERMENT….WHERE ARE THE “CHILD WELFARE POLICE”....THEY would be on this WITH ALL FOUR FEET if it were MY grand daughter pulling something like this. “


I NEVER HEARD PEOPLE SAYING THIS WHEN OTHER WOMEN WERE RUNNING FOR OFFICE. I NEVER SAW ANYONE SUGGESTING SUCH INSANELY FALSE RUMORS CIRCULATED TOWARDS ANY OTHER FEMALE POLITICIANS, REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRAT. HYPOCRITES. I GUESS SO LONG AS SOMEONE AGREES WITH YOU IT IS ALRIGHT FOR THEM TO RUN FOR OFFICE AT THE EXPENSE OF THEIR KIDS. BY THE WAY, IT TRULY SOUNDS LIKE PAM IS BEING SEXIST, AT LEAST BY THE FAR-LEFT INTERPRETATION AS SHE IS ADVOCATING A STRICTLY STAY AT HOME ROLE FOR WOMEN.

STOP LISTENING TO THE PITCH AND TONE OF PEOPLE’S VOICES AND LISTEN TO THE CONTENT OF THEIR WORDS AND SENTENCES.

Um…ok.

I can’t watch past the second video.  Palin’s annoying to listen to.  She repeats her answers as if she doesn’t realize that it’s time to stop talking.
