I
addressed this interview yesterday. But that was before they had made the
video available.
As usual seeing, and hearing Palin give her answers to a questions reveals even more about her lack of intelligence and inability to answer a question in a coherent manner.
Here see for yourself.
Here is what has now become Palin's famous dig at the President, suggesting that he was not ready for the 3 a.m. phone call, but also notice that she is so ignorant of how international diplomacy works that she actually seems frustrated that the White House has not told the American people just who THEY are going to replace Mubarak with.
Please tell me the end is near for $arah Paylin for real?!
ReplyDeleteAlso what's up with Alaska WTF? I can't access the website, yet it seems he keeps putting up new posts?
I still stand by my statement that Sarah is probably mentally challenged. She cannot complete a coherent thought or sentence without going off into 2 or 3 different tangents. Maybe she's just ADD.
ReplyDeleteHaving thick skin and a still spine sounds like a debilitating disease. Perfect description.
What the media feeds the American public is Sarah Palin and more Sarah Palin! She is wholly a creation of the "lamestream" media who are too lazy to engage in actual journalism. If they actually did their jobs Sarah Palin's political career would be a distant, vaguely unpleasant memory.
ReplyDeleteCompletely OT Uncle G, but I found this today on Twitter:
ReplyDeletehttp://charlottenewschannel.com/?do=external&channel=228&url=http://news.google.com/news/url?sa=t&fd=R&usg=AFQjCNG8yw6jTeyqbVxVPv4xZK8r6WdZ4g&url=http://www.wxii12.com/news/26774719/detail.html
People are still awaiting refunds on tickets from this shrew's canceled event? Shady (the organization) attracts shady (Palin) though I guess...
Her writers gave her a big headline phrase "straight to the answering machine" and Palin fluffed her delivery. She stumbled around trying to clear the word salad to get it out but blew it.
ReplyDeleteLucky for Sarah that the reporting was all in print, with careful editting so her big line sounded almost coherent via CNN, NY Times, etc.
The extended twitter silence from Palin now looks like she is happy being muzzled. Her meds must be pretty high dose.
She talks all the time about "what she stands for" but I really haven't ever heard her be specific about anything. WHAT DOES SHE STAND FOR??
ReplyDeleteOther than totally reinventing Ronald Reagan's legacy to inject in every nonsensical talking point, she never offers solutions or ideas. She's just the crazy lady standing at the sidelines criticizing the President and weighing in on every issue no matter her level of ignorance, which, by her comments on the Egypt situation, is great.
Does she not have any capacity for embarrassment?
Sarah doesn't even know that the proverbial 3 AM phone call will NOT involve a revolt in Egypt.
ReplyDeleteSilly twit has Egypt confused with Afghanistan- it's easy to do- but she is doing all she can to fix-up the media with her invaluable guest freelance field reports on WTFox. If Murdoch would only trust her with her own show!
ReplyDeleteCheck out the comments on the CBN site. Either the P-Bots haven't found it yet, or they're staying silent.
ReplyDeleteI'm so disappointed that she did not refer to the 'who what where when why' of journalism that she considers the MSM ignores! LOL
ReplyDeleteI understand she don`t like what President Obama is doing.
ReplyDeleteBut has SP ever said what she would do ? NO
Love it. She is so stunted. Emotionally, intellectually.
ReplyDeleteBtw, do you mean to say "indicative" rather than inductive?
Any timeline on her ruination? Pretty please???
Always good to hear from FOX's Alaskan Bureau Chief.
ReplyDeleteThat . Was. Insane.
ReplyDeleteShe is extremely nuts . . . .
I was encouraged by some of the comments people had left on the interview with The Brody File:
ReplyDeletehttp://blogs.cbn.com/thebrodyfile/archive/2011/02/05/exclusive-sarah-palin-interview-with-the-brody-file.aspx?epslanguage=en
Yet, another example of Sarah's opposite world. The REALITY is she cares A LOT about what people say about her, as evidenced in her obsession with Blogs as though they are some sort of media outlet. As a matter of fact, I think she is preoccupied with it and dedicates more time to that than understanding political issues (which she obviously dedicates, essentially, no time to).
ReplyDeleteAnd while we're on the subject of what she would do differently, if she chooses to run (which is looking highly unlikely), she also would have to address what is different in her life now that she feels she could be president but only a couple years ago couldn't even finish a term as governor. But, I really don't think it's going to get to that point. So far, the best thing I've seen her do since I've become aware of her, is doll up for photo shoots....
Sarah talking about work ethics? She quit her elected job as governor.
ReplyDeleteDid anyone notice the bookshelf and the prominence of "Reagan" to her left? Seems an appropriate placement.
ReplyDeleteBoy is that pitiful. Two stupid douchebags trying to converse and failing completely. This is the friendliest of interviewers for Palin, and still she's incoherent, possibly a little drunk. More fodder for campaign ads from other Rethugs, should she decide to run. Just 15 seconds of blather from this interview say all you need to know about Sarah Palin.
ReplyDeleteAnon @ 7:42 SHADY is right!
ReplyDeletePalin Ticket Buyers Still Waiting For Refunds
Group Says It's Working To Raise Money For Repayments
http://www.wxii12.com/r/26774719/detail.html
Palin's representatives told WXII that they had signed a contract with Blue Ridge, but when the group failed to meet a deposit deadline, the contract became void.
The event was rescheduled to be held in Greensboro last September, but Jones wouldn't say why the group advertised an event headlined by Palin, even though they didn't have an agreement with her. That event also never materialized.
Is Todd Almost the Ex-First-Dude?
ReplyDeletehttp://malialitman.wordpress.com/2011/02/07/is-todd-almost-the-ex-first-dude/
It is so obviously that it bothers the hell out of her what people say about her, and the way she denied it made it even more clear for me. It's that Sarah double-speak.
ReplyDeleteAnd how disgusting was that interviewer feeding her the lines, setting up the emotional level of discourse. He really is a hack.
It's very clear that when her voice goes up and her eyes get all buggy that she is flat out LYING. I sooooo want this woman to shut up, but the more she talks the more she digs her own political grave and that's a GOOD thing.
Palin made similar remarks last year in sharing her take on the media industry during an interview on Fox News. At the time, she also cited her own credentials as grounds for assuming the role of critic.
ReplyDelete"I want to help clean up the state that is so sorry today of journalism," she explained. "And I have a communications degree. I studied journalism -- who, what, where, when, and why -- of reporting. I will speak to reporters who still understand that cornerstone of our democracy, that expectation that the public has for truth to be reported. And then we get to decide our own opinion based on the facts reported to us."
Gryphen --
ReplyDeleteWith Sarah's 47th birthday coming up this Friday, I am wondering if you (or the NE) are planning a very special present for her?
Please, please say you are going to mark the occasion with something wonderful...
Palin trails Obama in red Tennessee
ReplyDeleteSarah Palin's big problems among the GOP faithful are on clear display in a new poll that shows large numbers of Republicans aren’t sure about her and the tea party darling trails President Barack Obama in a head-to-head matchup in Tennessee — even with the president's job approval numbers running low in the state.
The poll in the solidly red state where she and McCain crushed Obama by 15 points two years ago is a warning bell that Palin, despite her following and appeal to conservatives, remains fairly radioactive to some Republican voters, who are far from convinced she can win in 2012.
Continue Reading
In a hypothetical match up, 42 percent said they'd back Obama, while 37 percent picked Palin. Another roughly 20 percent picked none of the above, and other potential Republican candidates weren't measured.

How Sarah Palin Tortures the Bible
ReplyDeletehttp://www.theawl.com/2011/02/how-sarah-palin-tortures-the-bible
It could be the lighting, the makeup, or just time for more Botox, but she is looking much older. I wonder what could be causing that? I hear stress can accelerate the aging process.
ReplyDeletePalin says nothing in particular about Egypt, still gets headlines
ReplyDelete...So Palin memorized an adviser's pre-scripted attack line before launching into word salad. Despite the fact that she failed to give even the vaguest impression that she had any idea what she was talking about, that line, referencing a commercial from the 2008 Democratic presidential primary campaign, launched a thousand headlines and breathlessly phrased e-mail alerts.
We're talking about a reference to a political advertisement that is literally three years old -- and is essentially meaningless outside a closed circle of political reporters, advisers, and news junkies. Try to explain the significance of this remark to people outside the beltway and their eyes would glaze over like you were elaborating on the relationship between midi-chlorians and force sensitivity to a first date. But just as intended, this precrafted "diss" managed to substitute in press reports for anything resembling a passing familiarity with what's happening in Egypt. In fact, it mostly sounds like Palin is complaining because Obama hasn't "taken a side," so she's not quite sure what's she's supposed to be against yet (although, in a response that's probably more pavlovian than intellectual, she gets that she's supposed to see the "Muslim Brotherhood" as the bad guys).
Despite the fact that the interview mostly demonstrated that Palin has a short-term memory, she still had reporters hanging on her every word. The irony of Palin's persona, and the carefully nurtured grievance at the heart of it, is that she's so often graded on a curve.

Anon @ 8:18
ReplyDeleteI say: BRING HER ON!!!
I know it's contrary to most here, but I agree the more she's out there, the sooner she'll get locked up in the rubber room. Sure, if everyone ignored her Mrs Must-Be-In-The-Spotlight would reach the same destination. This way is just too entertaining. She can't even do a good job with the friendly hacks!
You'd think the C4Pers would want to shut her up, but they don't think. They just like lookin at Mrs Faith-N-Family-Values up there lookin al pretty n all.
anonymous comment on the reagan ranch thread: "supporters have an unbelievably high cognitive dissonance threshold level"
ReplyDeleteThat phrase very well sums up the problem. Sarah Palin could be wearing a white sheet with hood and waving a mock noose in this interview and it would still "resonate" with her base.
Palin has managed to stay well under the outrage threshold of the average American. A CBN interview isn't enough to trigger widespread disdain. Even a re-emergence on twitter won't be enough.
G, I'm hoping the media outlet is staying in touch with you. Babygate is critical.
She is so unbelievably stubborn. Remember they used to that about GW, as well?
ReplyDeleteJust doubling down, never admitting any mistakes - of any kind.
Shows true weakness and insecurity.
Thick skin, my ass.
Great post as always. SO I'm going to do my normal FB, Twitter and Google Buzz share:)
ReplyDeleteActually, I think her words always sound more credible coming out of her mouth than when one reads the transcript. When reading, one gets the full impact of the tortured syntax and complete lack of substance. But she speaks with such profound confidence that she can carry you along if you're not careful.
ReplyDeleteI can see how those lacking analytical skills would simply fix on the key words and sound bites she drops and assume she makes sense. Those same people are so stupid that when someone like our President gives a brilliant speech, they don't understand what he is saying. In other words, they are used to not understanding what politicians say, so they don't notice she makes no sense. I mean, she's a politician isn't she, so she must know what she's talking about! She looks so confident and pretty and, wow, look at that plunging neckline! If she leans forward, maybe I'll see some cleavage and...
BTW, the word you want is indicative, not inductive, Gryphen.
Seriously, I will have any level of respect for Palin if she can sit down with Chris Matthews and handle an interview.
ReplyDeleteIf she can't, and if you are a supporter and know she can't, then you have to admit she is inferior to President Obama in every way.
The rest of us know that she is, we are just waiting for you Palinbots to catch on.
Will someone please call her bluff regarding her journalism degree? I read somewhere that the Dean who signed her degree confirmed it was his signature, but had no recollection of her whatsoever. It's my hunch she never graduated and that the McCain folks pulled strings to get her degree after the fact.
ReplyDeleteI actually have a degree in journalism and used to work as a reporter and her ramblings about the state of journalism today are complete crap. Professional journalists today have great ethics. It's still a large and important subject area in J schools today. The large papers and networks (msm) do the best job with ethics because they can afford to hire the best journalists. It's the small papers and stations, that can't afford the best journalists, that have the most problems with ethics and fact-checking. FOX is widely regarded to be opinion journalism. She just doesn't like being exposed for what she really is, plays the victim, and then blames "journalism" for her looking like the idiot she is.
Oh, and BTW $arah. You must have missed the writing classes where we instructed to keep our sentences short and to the point. Your incoherent ramblings and run-on sentences would have received failing grades.
Even my once Palin-adorer-husband is sick of her...keep spewing your ineptness
ReplyDeleteWell, I hate to coach the opposite team but the ones that really need to get a backbone are the GOP. If they don't and continue to let themselves be bullied by FOX, Rush, etc., they don't stand a chance. I don't think that they are stuck between the rock and hard place that they whine they are. It's their inability to say, "You guys are idiots. (This) is what we stand for and you can take your blowhard garbage and ... "... well, let's keep it civil. But, really, they've got to get their act together SOON. (Of course, you dug yourself a pretty deep hole when your party attracts those sort of crazies.)
ReplyDeleteDoug Mataconis attempts to decipher Palin's thoughts on Egypt:
ReplyDeleteI’ve read through this incomprehensible word salad three times and I still can’t figure out for the life of me what Palin is trying to say here. As with most of her comments on substantive issues, it seems like she’s just throwing talking points together in some kind of stream-of-consciousness chant, hoping that it will make sense when it all comes together.
But it doesn’t.
http://andrewsullivan.theatlantic.com/the_daily_dish/2011/02/palins-foreign-policy-courtesy-of-mad-libs.html
She sounds like Alan Keyes after a ten year glue-sniffing habit.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the grizzled mama had some work on her neck over the holidays. Maybe she and Bristol got a BOGO (buy One get one free)deal. Her neck was talked about extensively on the blogs and voila new neck.
ReplyDeleteWe talked about her crazy tongue movements and voila the psych meds are changed and it goes away. Also explains her break - they had to wait for the meds to normalize before unleashing her again.
We talked about Bristol's chins and voila they disappear.
We talk about Todd's hookers and voila HE disappears.
If only we could figure out what would make HER disappear.
Oh, and yes, she sounds like an idiot during this interview. I have to agree that the written transcript is more revealing because there is no distraction (crazy eyes, big hair, weird lips) and you can really process the mess of world salad. My favorite part of the transcript is the "Still spine"!ha! Still, rill, repill.
If we think her speech is garbled, what must her brain be like?
ReplyDeleteThere is something seriously wrong with her that she cannot answer a question in an intelligent, forthright manner.
This is just a Q &A. What would she be like in a discussion group?
She speaks volumes, but says NOTHING
A commenter on another blog gave the best description EVER for Sarah's speech (could fit all of them). . . "Me, me, me, a verb, Obama's doing it wrong."
ReplyDeleteSarah Palin Puts Some Words Together About Egypt
ReplyDelete...I’ve read through this incomprehensible word salad three times and I still can’t figure out for the life of me what Palin is trying to say here. As with most of her comments on substantive issues, it seems like she’s just throwing talking points together in some kind of stream-of-consciousness chant, hoping that it will make sense when it all comes together.
But it doesn’t.
Her main complaint seems to be that the Obama Administration isn’t being public enough about its actions in Egypt but, of course, diplomacy usually only works well when its done behind the scenes and out of the view of cameras. You might be able to turn a political career into a TLC reality show, but you can’t do that with the imminent collapse of a thirty year-0ld authoritarian regime.
Perhaps Palin’s remarks will make more sense when the video is released later today, but I doubt it. Judging from the transcript, though, it’s fairly clear she still has years of homework to do before she speaks out on foreign policy matters again.
http://www.outsidethebeltway.com/sarah-palin-puts-some-words-together-about-egypt/
Someone needs to put a laugh track on that interview, like was done on the Katie Couric Interview.
ReplyDeleteIs she really unaware that she's completely out of her depth here? When someone doesn't have the capacity to be embarrassed by their own ignorance and they carry on as if they're an expert, it's just pathetic. Anyone who can read or listen to that drivel and think that she has any business running for office for any seat higher than city council--and I'm being generous here--is a moron.

Well, she is back to wearing her wedding ring so we know Todd MUST be in hot water. Other than that, she looks rode hard and put up wet. You'd think with all of her money she would get a decent haircut. Oh, I forgot, she hates to tip. Please let her downfall be quick and soon.
ReplyDeleteThis has to be her worst interview. She's struggling for words here. She can't even say what she "feels" or "thinks". She draws all ideas from what Reagan's ideals are, or from the Founding Father's ideals are. She never tells us what she really thinks herself. She can't. She's been programmed to think the way her makers think.
ReplyDeleteVery sad and pathetic situation for this woman. It appears she has no identity, is suffering from an identity crisis, and has to draw sayings from her mom's fridge magnets, her dad's old sayings, etc. or historical figures.
Sarah look behind you...those are books...something you need to read before opening your large pie hole.
ReplyDeleteI'm torn as to what $arah's real problem is. Over-medicated or just WAY under-smart.
ReplyDeleteTis like watching the splintering, breakdown of her mind right before our very eyes. She either has no competent advisers or she does not listen to their advice. It would be sad to see if she was not such a mean and hateful woman.
ReplyDeleteHas there ever been a person that used a couple of dozen talking points and made as much money as Sarah?
ReplyDeleteSarah the rich Princess of Platitudes and Talking Points
anon 8:28 that is a heavenly link, check it out everyone! i might add, "she has been weighed in the balance and found wanting" thanks to all the close observation by the lame stream media. sort of like water dripping on the stone.
ReplyDeleteIn the first segment she implies that the American people have no access to news in order to make up their own minds. Which means that she slept though the part of her Journalism education where the Prof. Explains why journalism is considered the fourth branch of government. It allows for the “well informed electorate” upon which democracy depends.
ReplyDeleteAnd of course she equates a popular and largely peaceful uprising in Egypt as equivalent to a 1950's style missile attack by the USSR. That is where the mythology of the 3 am phone call came from. She is apparently unaware that all branches of our defense mechanism are monitoring events world wide 24 hours a day, so the days of a surprise nuclear missile attack from Russia really don’t much exist any more.
Of course in that second segment, everything that she says she finds scary about misreporting applies to her, but as always rules and QA don't apply to her, just to everybody else.
And she is too blind to see herself in the mirror.
Virginia Voter - "Sarah is probably mentally challenged."
ReplyDeleteYup! There's very little doubt about it. Also, too, there's a personality disorder or two in the mix.
2 Timothy 1:7 isn't working out for her.
Ms. PP:
ReplyDeleteOne, if you were so thick skinned you would not need to bring up the subject.
Two, Egypt is a democratic society, they elect their OWN LEADERS.
Three, mainstream media? - you are part of the mainstream media you idiot, you work for FOX!
Four, you are too stupid for words.
I tend not to watch the videos since I know that stress is not healthy and she gets so tiresome. But sometimes, if I have time and feel like a laugh, I indulge. If I knew that she had no following and knew for sure she was going to continue to stay out of politics, I could find it even more humorous. But I don't count on anything ever since G W Bush was elected 2 times(!) to the WH and I had to listen to that imbecile for 8 years. As I said, I try to avoid stress. I look forward to Sarah Palin leaving the news cycle for good and being able to rely on my, already in place, much better sources for humor.
ReplyDeleteAs usual, $arah Palin has no clue about what she is talking about. She likes to stand on the sidelines shooting spitballs, instead offering any better solutions. It is not at all shocking that a stupid fascist bitch like $arah Palin thinks the U.S. should choose the leaders of other countries, and thinks that SHE should control the media. I’m worried about the right-wing propaganda that the media and $arah Palin are feeding the American public. After all, Palin already got several people shot in Arizona.
ReplyDeleteI would trust Barack Obama any day to handle a “3:00 a.m. phone call” before I would trust $arah Palin. Most people would choose the President over Palin's deranged ass, anyway. $arah Palin couldn’t handle a 3:00 a.m. soft-ball interview. She couldn’t even answer what newspapers she reads. And, her handling of the Arizona shooting was terrible. I heard about how she let a bunch of Alaskan natives starve and freeze to death while still the governor of Alaska. The woman disgusts me.
$arah Palin does not have thick skin, and a “steel spine.” She does too care about what people think about her. If she didn’t she wouldn’t have had Gryphen thrown out of her book signing appearance, and she wouldn’t try to run away from reporters. She also wouldn't constantly play the victim, and pull out of an event in Colorado, because of an "onslaught of personal attacks." I doubt most of the things we hear about $arah Palin are made up. Palin, herself is the Queen of makin’ up shit.
I CAIN'T STAND THAT WOMAN!
ReplyDeleteGet the daggum horsedoo off yer boots, lady, and go SHOWER; you're contaminating our country!
That is truly one dumb woman.
ReplyDeleteMost people who see Palin for what she is already know -- Palin's pseudo-critique of the media is her attempt at shielding herself from criticism. Anything harmful said about her is just the result of broken journalism. They fail to see her as the second coming of Reagan, or even Jesus.
ReplyDeleteIronically, just the opposite is true. Yes, the media is broken. But it's because they give this phony any platform to begin with.
When you hear Sarah's "off the cuff" remark, you realize just how much time and work her handlers had to put in to get her ready for the VP debate. She was so control and on topic (but only a few topics, no matter what was asked).
ReplyDeleteFor this interview, she obviously had a couple of talking points somebody gave her, but left to her own devices, her answers came out a hot mess (just like her).
sorry to be random but must say, Hillary C's hot from whatever work shes had done in her face. She certainly gets better with age
ReplyDelete8:41 AM.,
ReplyDeleteThere is already wide-spread outrage, and opposition to $arah Palin.
No one who actually possesses a steel spine would go around insisting they have one. This woman is just the completely opposite of President Barack Obama.
ReplyDeleteHe's even-tempered, self-deprecating...and yet you sense he is a genuinely confident person. Palin is a strutting braggart...and you can tell she's faking most of her bravado.
Obama's a non-flashy thinker who actually gets things done. Palin is all noise and flash, and quit her job.
He's everything her supporters try to tell themselves she is. But she never will be.
8:49 A.M.,
ReplyDeleteLook at the bright side. Her looks are fading, and she's become more unpopular.

8:30 AM
I thought she looked unusually haggard. But then she is in her late 40's and what that means to women's aging processes.
Some women get hit hard by menopause and some barely notice it, some grow older gracefully, some are Sarah Palin, but it does accelerate the aging process.
Watching Bachamnn and Palin try to continue to look like,and act like teenagers will get increasingly entertaining.
Sarah Palin always touts her journalism degree as though it gives her special insight into journalism to the point where she can "teach" the US media how to do journalism properly.
ReplyDeleteHer only practical journalism experience is in reading sports news off a teleprompter.
Yet the people she critizes (like Katie Couric) have received awards during their decades of journalism experience.
It's true that many journalists do not have journalism degrees. They often have political science, English, or history degrees. Some--like Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, and Sean Hannity--never went to college. Others, like Brian Williams, never finished college.
She also always trots out the same mantra of "who, what, when, why, and where" that you learn in a high school journalism class. But she always forgets "how."
That is probably because she is incapable of figuring out "how."
Nobody would ever hire Sarah Palin to supervise seasoned journalists like Couric, Williams, Matthews, Blitzer, Sawyer, etc., simply because she has "a journalism degree." They have likely forgotten more than she ever learned about journalism.
And didn't she once say Obama wouldn't be a good president because he lacked practical experience as a government administrator? Yet somehow her BA from a series of low-rate universities qualifies her as a journalism expert?
As a journalist and editor, I have hired and worked with people who have BA degrees from better schools than Palin who have an elementary understanding of journalism and writing.
Palin cannot even write her own Tweets and Facebook posts, let alone function as a journalist.
Didn't she say Obama wasn't qualified to be president because he lacked
Iceberg, please. Please. ASAP.
ReplyDelete"if she ran for president AGAIN?"
ReplyDeleteDoes she really think that? How delusional is she? Or did that quote come from someone else?
I WISH this black hearted evil woman were ageing, but I honestly have to say, I think she is still pretty. She is, however, an unevolved perpetually mean girl adolescent, and fortunately, that doesn't result in a long shelf life for women. Men do better; look around at the idiot men we've revered for a long time.

The partnership is shocking, considering Sarah, 47, has repeatedly blasted Michelle.

This woman is as dumb as a stump. I've heard that expression before, but never really had anyone to pin it on until Sarah Palin came around. How did she ever get into even community level politics, let alone a state governorship, and as to whomever picked her as a VP candidate? I bet they are regretting it now! She makes everyone around her just as stupid as she is.

I'm sorry Gryphen. I have to contact my attorney to begin litigation towards you for the pain and suffering you created with this post. Not only did you subject me to more than three minutes of Palin's word diarrhea, but her voice has permanently altered my hearing capabilities. The destruction of my mental health is now on your hands.
ReplyDeleteWhy does Palin bring up that she has a journalism degree when she can't even put a sentence together? On top of that she has to pay someone to write a book for her dumbass.
ReplyDeleteI was on Huffington Post earlier this morning and they had more than one article up on Sarah Palin...went back a few minutes ago and everything on her is no longer there!!! Yea!!!
ReplyDeleteSo, so hope they stop giving the idiot a platform.
The scary thing is that there are others besides Palin who think that we have the right to dictate to other countries who should be in office and what kind of government they should have.
ReplyDeleteAs far as the interview goes it is typical Palin hypocrisy. Is she really still trying to play the inexperience card against the President? I certainly would have Barack Obama get the call at 2 a.m. rather than Caribou Barbie. As far as her "thick skin", a tissue has thicker skin than she does.
Virginia Voter, She does not have a thick skin nor a 'still'(as she said it)spine. She reacts to EVERYTHING,
ReplyDeletenever lets anything pass. It's a wonder she hasn't been charged with
sedition, by now. Does nothing but stir up discontent & anger & takes pleasure when others do it.

@10:16 -- I love everything you had to say. It's always great to hear from other degreed journalists who aren't impressed with Stupid Sarah's BS 'righteous indignation' with the state of the field today.
ReplyDeleteI've never understood at all how someone whose total depth of journalistic experience entailed reading sports off a teleprompter could be considered an expert -- but hey, if Sarah says it, it must be true right?
Stupid Sarah so does amuse me when she comes across as an exasperated scold of journalists who've worked harder in one month than she has her entire, patchwork career. As others have pointed out though, it's all about trying to deflect criticism from those who aren't falling for her cutesy games.
Menopause does not accelerate the aging process (10:16 am).
ReplyDeleteGetting older and stress DO accelerate the aging process.
Much as I dislike Snownutz, don't drag down menopausal women with her.
Hey Sarah, did you know that some people actually read books rather than just sit in front of them in attempt to appear knowledgeable? Nice placement of the REAGAN title, btw. On the right side even.
ReplyDeleteYou're pathetic.
Does she listen to what she has said? This is beyond "word salad" this is garbage.
ReplyDeleteIf she was not psychotic, she would be too embarassed to show her face in public.
I would just like to say to any Outsiders who watched this interview.......the "still spine" thingy? That is not an Alaskan accent!
ReplyDeleteI was born and raised here 47 years ago. NOBODY but Sarah Palin say "still, rill, dill, etc.", not even the people who came here from the Midwest, which to me appears to be the accent closest to Sarah Palin's.
Alaskans (those raised here) sound like newscasters or people from Lincoln, Nebraska, not like Sarah Palin!
Sorry, but I read a comment on the CBN site that referred to her "Alaskan Accent" and it just got to me.

OMG I almost lost my lunch from laughing so hard...Snownutz!!!
Gryphen,
ReplyDeleteMy husband told me that you have to close your eyes and pray before you listen to her. I actually tried it here and.....it doesn't work. I still don't understand her. Can she try a noun and verb, just like the rest of us.
I just want you to know that I still think you should write a book. You are such a great writer. You can do a book on the Grizzled mama or even a book on fatherhood as I love your stories on your daughter and fatherhood.
Wow. I actually felt a tinge of embarrassment for her while watching that. She just oozes discomfort. You can literally feel her struggling inside to remember her memorized talking points and look composed. This in front of the friendliest of friendly interviewers no less. What an odd human being. Her whole life is a lie.

ReplyDeleteBristol and First Lady Obama - from what I have researched, the twitter account was a fake, there is nothing to this story but someone pretending that there is, probably all done by RAM to try to make Bristol look good.
What Gryphen describes as "socialism" in this article is no such thing. He would have been better served to use the word "fascism". Socialists don't care who runs the media or who runs other countries.
ReplyDeleteMore and more people are seeing right through her. Their excuse is highly SUSPECT...
ReplyDeletepersonal attacks = poor ticket sales
Her moment has passed.
Sarah Palin: Glendale speech canceled due to personal attacks -- or is that just trendy excuse?
http://blogs.westword.com/latestword/2011/02/
sarah_palin_colorado_springs_speech_canceled.php
The "personal attacks" rationale seems wacky. After all, such reactions are absolutely standard for a figure as polarizing as Palin. If she was really that cowed by "negative rhetoric," she'd eschew this whole running-for-president thing for which she's clearly sowing the seeds in favor of lying low in an Alaskan dugout with a weapon at her side waiting for the next moose to amble past.
So what's really going on? As the Washington Post points out, "the cancellation of the speaking engagement frees Palin to attend the NBC/Politico Republican presidential primary debate at the Reagan Presidential Library in California, also scheduled for May 2" -- and while neither Palin nor other potential or announced Republican presidential candidates have confirmed that they'll be there, it opens the option for her.
And then there are details shared by the Denver Post in an article accessible via this item's initial link -- namely that the SKP Foundation reported total assets of just over $2,200 in 2009, and had already cut the originally announced ticket price of $185 in half before telling the public about the Palin visit. Such factors encourage speculation that either folks at the organization or members of the Palin camp realized that SKP was in over its head.
Well, back in like 05-06, before any PS, SArah did look oldish. think of the family pics on the lake and by the plane
ReplyDeleteJohn McCain watching Palin's latest video and repeating over and over and over
ReplyDeleteI'm so proud of her
(In my dreams
That woman is an IDIOT.
ReplyDeleteIt's OH so typical of her word salad. She pauses when she has not a fucking clue what the hell she is saying.
What a dumbass.
She does NOT get it. At.All.
Sister sarah is scared!She knows the "icebergs" coming her way soon.
ReplyDeleteEverything she said in the interview regarding the msm "not telling the truth" is to prepare her fans for the onslaught of bad news coming out about her. I don't know what all is coming out, but sp prooved that something heavy is coming. She is already setting the stage with her rant on journalism because she will say "see, I told you the msm lies about me".She knows the stuff isn't just from NE but from a more main stream publication. Very telling.
Jeanabella
She complains about the 3 am call going to an answering machine? The phone was ringing for over 2 weeks before she even noticed it!
ReplyDeleteShe's a doozy alright. No getting around it. Seriously though if she can be this stupid then how stupid are the folks out there supporting her for a presidential run. It boggles the mind. You know, if you have one.
ReplyDeleteWow. Is it just me, or does Sarah seem more than just a little freaked out in these videos?
ReplyDeleteYou can just about hear the few rusty wobbly screws that are left, slowly spinning themselves loose inside her head.
Kind of disturbing, really.

ReplyDeleteThings Nobody Should Care About
Bristol Palin Gives Tour of Maricopa Home to E!
http://blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com/valleyfever/
2011/02/bristol_palin_gives_tour_of_ma.php
If your last name's Palin, it's apparently mandatory to turn every mundane thing you do into some sort of televised event. For example, buying a home in Arizona.
Tonight on E!, Palin will give a tour of her new diggs to host Guiliana Rancic, as she and her son, Tripp, discuss a collection of mind-numbing topics like her new Italian boyfriend, and what it's like to be in a long-distance relationship.
Yawn.
If you're dying to know what the inside of Bristol Palin's house looks like, you can check it out tonight on E! at 7 p.m. and again at 11:30 p.m. Or you could always just stick hot pokers into your eyeballs, whichever you prefer.
how come she lives in AK and gives tours of a house in AZ?
ReplyDeletewho is really giving tours?
In the month of February is a certain former governor's birthday.
ReplyDeleteWill the details of a rumored tax dodge leak before then?
It is big and ugly.
The gigantic wheels of the vast Rovian Smear Machine have begun to turn, and the independent media is greasing the rails.
ReplyDeleteSarah may not be too bright, but I'll bet she's starting to feel the rumble.
Go watch Captain Queeg (Humphrey bogart) disintegrate on the witness stand in The Caine Mutiny. Same thing.
ReplyDeleteThe people on Palin's payroll like RAM must be stupid also to let her give talks about things she has no knowledge about. She is an ignorant woman and knows nothing about foreign policy.
ReplyDeleteJournalists are risking their lives in Egypt to cover what's going on over there, and she's going to lecture them on integrity? She who reads off a prepared script on the teleprompter for her Fox interviews??
ReplyDeleteDon't know why I didn't think of this before: Palin is not going to be allowed to run for President. The Republicans are using her as a pawn knowing that she is too unpopular and erratic to be elected. Anyone they put up will look moderate and competent compared to her. That's why they have allowed her to get this far in the game.
ReplyDeleteIt is just like the maneuvering that is going on in Congress right now with legislation relating to the Hyde Amendment. They never expected to get the new definition of rape through, so they threw it out there knowing when they gave it up it would appear that they were compromising on something. It was a bargaining ploy. So is Sarah Palin's role in the Republican party.
Shades of "Brother Love's Travelling Salvation Show".. How many .. "I BELIEVE..I BELIEVE..I BELIEVE".. did Sarah successfully pack into her word salad?
ReplyDeleteAnd that was her real message, wasn't it? That and Her JOY.. and those soulful gazes..
So she's a bit awkward getting out those coherent syllables.. I don't think her supporters even hear that.
She came off more appealingly ditzy than angry..and more concerned than strident in the bits I saw.. Thank God she's not more articulate..
Thank you Gryphen for taking her on.. because this latest persona is more appealing than the screech personality.. Maybe they did change her meds..
And, thank you Gryphen for hours of pleasure I get reading your posts.
"Word salad" and "neologisms"(making up new words) can be early signs of certain types of schizophrenia.
ReplyDeletewww.schizophrenia.com/earlysigns.htm
A very interesting list of symptoms.
wow....really bad interview with a very friendly reporter throwing softballs at her. Can you imagine if a real reporter asked her the who what where when whys? She'd crap her pants. "I have a journalism degree" my ass!
ReplyDeleteAnd why on earth would anyone pretend that the Christian Broadcast Network was 1) fair and balanced 2) a real media outfit 3) anything other Pat Robertson proganda machine
Just keep talking Sarah!!
This was a religious show so she's not going to get all screechy.... that wasn't the audience for it.
ReplyDeleteAlso, what's up with no wedding ring in the Lady Godiva pic but she's got one on for the Fundie Christian show? Add "multiple personalities" as one of the many personality disorders she's racked up.
Hmmm...Dear Sarah some 3 AM phone calls involve more than picking up your drunk husband from a prostitute.
ReplyDeleteShe looks thin and tired with stringy hair. It's crystal clear she has no idea what's going to come out of her mouth when she opens it, and she seems exhausted with herself, desperately searching for a way to end her rambling mess.
ReplyDeleteOnce again when asked what she'd change when running for POTUS, she can't even think of something that would impact millions, but reverts to her self-centered thick skinned "still" spine answer.
Ya Sarah, sell us another Bridge to Nowhere! You say something so blatantly opposite of how you really respond to the media that claiming black is white ruins your credibility once again.
Gibbs had a hard time today responding to her word salad statement about Egypt. He just simply said "We really couldn't understand what she was talking about"
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing this I can see Palin taking over Lloyd Bridges role in the movie Airplane and saying, "I sure picked the wrong week to quite crystal meth".
ReplyDeletePut the illegal drugs away Sarah and start taking your psych meds, you'll be much happier and healthier in the long run.
Anon@9:30
ReplyDelete"It appears she has no identity"
This is true. It's also exemplified by her sterile house and shape-shifting and wardrobe-shifting (librarian/biker chick/Nellie Olsen/Barbara Walters lookalike).
Narcissists, paradoxically, really have no inner core self, is what I have gleaned from reading on the subject.
Her core self is hollow: it's what we saw on the beach in Hawaii, imo, her scrounged-out-of-the-dirty-laundry -hamper look of crappy T-shirt, man-style gym shorts and a ball cap defaced with a fat Sharpie. That's the "real" Sarah.
