Sarah Palin’s Cheat Sheet

Sarah Palin brought fire to the goofball convention, but she also brought talking points—drawn directly on her hand.

Guess next time Katie Couric wants to embarrass Palin, she’ll have to trick her into scrubbing clean and then ask a nasty gotcha question like “Where is Canada?” or “Federal Bureau of Investigation stands for what three-letter federal agency?”

Meet your 45th president, America:

Great photojournalism! Now we know that Sarah Palin has pretty little hands to go with her dainty feet, glamour-girl legs, slim figure, lustrous auburn hair & lovely face. That’s hard news!

For the populace Palin is a bounced check.  Sarah Palin running as a Republican President is like a person I once knew overdrawing her bank account, then writing another check on the same overdrawn bank account to add money to that same bank account.  The Republican Party has purposefully overdrawn the economy of the United States and no matter how you slice it, there is nothing in the Republican Party for the populace.  The Republicans sapped the populace dry, not the Obama administration.  Palin is only a pretender and a shill for the Republican Party to get back into power and finish the populace off.  Just because President Obama is not an FDR, doesn’t mean he is not doing the best he can to restore our nation.  Writing a Palin check on the Republican Party that has already destroyed the economy will not be any benefit to the populace of the United States whatsoever.  Bush was stupid, Palin is stupid——this is a prerequisite for the Republican Party EXTREMISTS, which is why Palin has been chosen to be their puppet or she wouldn’t be at the Fox Network.

So, what should we do about Palin?  Ignore her completely in the hopes that she’ll
eventually just go away?

Sarah Palin’s Nashville speech was the most significant oration of the 21st century.

“Stupidity is an asset in Amerikan politics, while intelligence is denigrated.”

Taken almost verbatim from the Christianity policy handbook.

Go ahead, keep poking fun at Palin for her lack of intelligence and she will laugh herself all the way into the White House. Stupidity is an asset in Amerikan politics, while intelligence is denigrated. The more the media keeps following her the greater her support will grow.

Giver her some slack. She has to scribble on her clammy hand because she probably hasn’t figured that new fangled tele-prompter thingy out.

I so hope the Goppers get her to run for Prez. No laugh track will be needed for THAT sitcom.

We all know she is a few nickles short of a dime. What is really sad it that so many Americans think she is the GOP messiah! Note how she deftly played the typical Republican anti-elitist card in her speech:
“We need a commander-in-chief, not a professor of law standing at a lectern.”

Commander In Chief feels like making the president a military dictator to me. What we need is a president who, in times of war, is the Commander In Chief. What we don’t need is a ding-dong who believes that attacking Iran makes sense.

Wake up Palin supporters! she’s an imbecile! Is this the best you think the US has to offer?
