Dueling egos at Fox News as Bill O'Reilly tries desperately to get a specific answer from Sarah Palin who simply refuses to cooperate.
I cannot believe that O'Reilly refers to Palin as a Fox News "analyst." Clearly their criteria for an analyst is extraordinarily low. Taking this interview as an example, apparently an analyst for Fox is only supposed to dodge questions, provide only vague anti-government talking points, and refuse to answer anything specific which would require a real understanding of the subject matter.
But getting back to why Fox has Palin on the payroll you can almost hear Palin-bots all over the country simultaneously reaching orgasm as Snowdrift Snooki uses the excuse of the Alaska 4 second delay to take control of the dialogue away from O'Reilly and spew her anti-government rhetoric uninterrupted.
"Oh my God! Did you see the Governor Palin bitch slap O'Reilly on his own show last night? That was so controlling, and oh so sexy! I wonder what she was wearing under that coat to go along with her dominatrix librarian hairdo? I bet it was a leather outfit, do you think it was leather?"
Clearly miffed at Palin's attention seeking behavior, O'Reilly then uses the plight of rural Alaskans to demonstrate why Palin's anti-government ideas would not work for everybody, and tries to get her to explain how she would help those people specifically, but Palin is too sneaky and decides to throw Michael Moore into the conversation in the hopes that O'Reilly will chase after and attack Moore like a dog chasing a Frisbee.
However it only works for a few minutes before, to Palin's exasperation, O'Reilly comes back to the needs of the poor people in Alaska. Cornered Palin discusses an imaginary "safety net" being required for those people, before blaming the problem of poverty in Alaska on, and you will love this, the Federal government and the fact they will not open ANWR.
Ow, ow, ow! That made my brain hurt!
(If you believe that opening ANWR, and increasing oil development in Alaska, will solve the problem of poverty I have a bridge to nowhere to sell you.)
Clearly O'Reilly has little, if any respect, for Palin and enjoys asking her questions that demonstrate her lack of knowledge and intelligence to his viewers. And as much as I dislike both of them, I do enjoy watching Palin squirm as her limitations are put on dispaly in front of the very audience whose support she desperately needs to buy her books and pay her for speaking gibberish for large sums of money.

Sarah Palin makes my brain hurt.
ReplyDeleteI do love when she goes on O'Reilly...as much as I dislike and am creeped out by Billo in general, he is pretty much the only one on Fox News who at least tries to get Sarah to answer his questions. His disdain for the Queen is fun to watch.
With Iowa caucuses now less than 10 months away, no Republican even has officially declared a presidential run. Maybe this is why...here in VA an interesting poll:
http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/pdf/PPP_Release_VA_03021118.pdf
Looks like Sarah has a 16% favorability rating in the Commonwealth in a poll heavily weighted to the 45-65 age group, with almost half describing themselves as conservative. Ouch
Oh, you were right on on those Palinbot quotes- Over at her favorite fan club, that was exactly what they were saying, whooping it up over the big smack down. Not a word about the lack of answers to questions about the poor, or the cutoff age for SS.
ReplyDeleteHah! Scarah throwing in Michael Moore's name was like the dog saying "Squirrel!" , no offense to dogs
ReplyDeleteAnd she's going off to speak in India? This is what THEY think of her...and it ain't pretty!

STFU!
ReplyDeleteShe is nothing like a librarian--not even her hair ;~)
ReplyDeleteBillo hates all women, even Sarah, so no surprise there.
The best way for Fox to INCREASE it's already grossly overwatched shows would be to have the primetime hosts start to get fed up with Palin, and start exposing her stupidity more and more. I can't think of ANYTHING I'd rather watch than Bill-O, Hannity, Beck or Van Susteren go after the "Governor" (how asinine do they sound every time they call her that??!). Let them all tear one another apart. Can't stand any of those jerks!
ReplyDeletePalin gets a whooping by Billy O.
ReplyDeleteBill wants answers to questions and Sarah goes on her continual rampages.
I do think Sarah has been working on her speech delivery. She is not as rabid and fast paced. She
gets frustrated when bill interupts.
Sarah since you are such a godly woman, what is the difference between Mr. Grahams church helping the poor and the Government?
Off topic Newts comment about Portman, I think was a hit at Palin and Bristol in a back door round about way.
Ouch, yuk, boo, hiss. After all that has been said about her. Just can't believe she even dares to be an expert on anything.
ReplyDeleteEven old fellafella (sic) himself wouldn't want to bed Palin. She knows he isn't snowed by her "charm" and "sexiness" and it galls the hell out of her.
ReplyDeleteShe looks more and more MANLY every day. That severe hair is foul.
ReplyDeleteI noticed she said nothing about those jobs she claimed the feds took away not going to the disadvantaged ,as she called them.Who works in the oil fields certainly not the native Americans
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to watch that knowing this multi-millionairess sits as a queen and has need of nothing try to dodge Bill's question about the poor. She can't deliver a solution on those who fall through the cracks, because she has absolutely no concern for them, and Bill picks up on this everytime.
ReplyDeleteHer only mission is to character slander others into the ground. Her face is taking on a hard iron mad look as well. All the hate in that woman wants to seethe out through her pores.
Some of you have been asking about these shockingly revealing images of the REAL Sarah. Here they are in all their glory.

@Virginia Voter - I'm now officially no longer sad to have moved from Virginia
ReplyDeletePeople who work for sarah are paid to put up with her.
ReplyDeletePeople who work with sarah can´t stand the woman.
Now, sarah, please get back in here and tell us again what an inspiration you are to Americans.
That was hysterical.
That is one truly dumb woman!
ReplyDeleteThe sad thing is that only the intelligent people see how Bill exposes her ignorance. The other dimwits are too ignorant to grasp the fact that scarah is an imbecile.
ReplyDeleteIt is becoming clearer where that missing eight million dollars went while sarah was mayor in name only of Wasilla.
ReplyDeleteFranklin Graham got it, and they want more.
It must be so easy to be so uncaring of people in need. She must know that it could have been her or her family but she fooled the world for a while and can collect millions. Poor excuse for a human being.
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing pretty about her anymore. She looks like a man and an angry thin skinned one at that. Look, she's doing all she can to try and "look" presidential but she cannot run or hide from facts and they are as follows:
ReplyDeleteWorst Governor Ever
Quit on Alaska for a buck
History of stupid tweets and FB fatwahs
Kids are trainwrecks
Husband sleeps with hookers
Frank Bailey's email goodie bag
Why were palin and huckabee not exiled from fox news?
ReplyDeleteWhy should she be able to get free air time?
She and huckabee should be held to the same standards as santorum and gingrich.
The down side to being the momma Grizzled Bear is that Poppa Bear O'Riley out weighs her,intellectually and jouralistically, by about a quarter of a ton at least and is far more capable of focusing his aggressions.
ReplyDeleteShe seems to be totally unaffected by the Shailey revelations. It's as if she is living in a world of her own. Her state of denial is truly awesome to watch. Is there anything, anything at all that will undermine her bravado, bring her to her knees and make her leave the public arena?
ReplyDeleteI recall Murdoch pointing out that Palin was a 'contributor' and not an 'analyst' and that she primarily had entertainment value. Surely Bill was speaking satirically.
ReplyDeleteIt's really hard for Sarah to keep up with her prepared responses scrolling on the teleprompter when Bill interrupts. After the bitch slap, she went into her over-dramatized reading bit and looked so pleased with herself. When it comes to not answering questions, Sarah is the best!
That was all I could take. Thanks for reporting on the rest of the interview.
Palin says: " What courage really is, is in the face of having a surplus when you have opportunity to spend, spend, spend the people’s money, you still choose to reign in government to let the private sector soar. That’s real courage, and by the way that’s what I did as [governor of Alaska] when I engaged in hiring freezes and reduced earmarks by 86 percent and vetoed the largest amounts in our state’s history."
ReplyDeleteNo, that's real lies.
Her hiring freeze occurred after a dramatic drop in oil prices, as oil fuels 90% of the state budget, nit when the state was expecting a huge surplus.. And even then it was a phony hiring freeze. From the Juneau Empire in May 2009:
http://www.juneauempire.com/stories/052809/loc_444691110.shtml
"Palin ends hiring freeze
Gov. Sarah Palin is lifting her administration's hiring freeze a month early, but critics say it never should have happened in the first place.
Palin, a Republican, announced the hiring freeze during her State of the State speech in January to a joint session of the Alaska Legislature after prices for North Slope oil fell dramatically.
The freeze did not apply a number of critical jobs, such as public safety or pioneer home employees. Subsequently, the administration added other jobs to the list of critical jobs or issued waivers to allow hiring anyway."
She also fails to mention that:
1. she championed the largest tax increase in state history, which her successor is trying to undo.
2. she grew the state operating budget by 35% in just 2 years.
Yup, that's real courage. Saying one thing and doing another.
You betcha!
I love how he blew her off at the end "Thanks for takin' the time"
ReplyDeleteHer quick answers at 3:31, 3:34, 5:00 and 5:39 prove there is no time delay in her hearing him.
She must have something in her contract that doesn't allow her to choose which shows she appears on because if there weren't, certainly she would refuse to appear with O'Reilly. Hannity is her go-to guy.
The funniest part was how her bangs waggled as she shook her head "no no no" to everything O'Reilly said. You know the bots were getting off on that stern, scolding librarian shit.
I'm surprised she didn't say, "let them eat cake."
ReplyDeleteHow long before FOX can justify writing off the investment in the Wasilla studio and cutting their losses because I really don't think they have anyone who wants to humor her anymore? It's just too hard on the brain, even for them. Continuing to drag her along must be an upper-management arrangement that makes someone happy.
ReplyDeleteShe's pathetic. She has NOTHING to offer - nothing but pissy, safe, will-never-be-called-on-it criticism. Maybe you do, Gryphen, but I don't consider what O'Reilly does calling her on it at all. He might press her a little bit, but he does it in such a way as to give her credibility because his questions are based on an assumption that she has answers to his questions. Then when it turns out she has nothing but pissy finger pointing to offer, he lets her get away with her non-response responses every single time.
ReplyDeleteO'Reilly is GIVEN a list of questions that Palin is SUPPOSED have MEMORIZED the answers.
ReplyDeleteO'Reilly is too stupid or to terrified to veer too far into the unknown with Palin. So he just goes back to his prepared questions.
O'Reilly is NOT making Palin squirm. O'Reilly is panicked that Palin is going to expose herself as the idiot she is.
All I see in this video is O'Reilly hoping to protect Palin but helplessly unable to get Palin back on message.
Frankly, O'Reilly's regard for anybody, regardless of their political opinion, is subordinate to his regard for himself.
ReplyDeleteHis clashes with Palin are duels between two narcissists.
That about killed me to suffer through 7 whole minutes, because I can't stand either one of them, but do enjoy O'Reilly's smack-down of her. He seems to be the only one not willing to cater to her.
ReplyDeleteAnd Gryphen, funny write-up. You are very talented and getting better all the time. Thanks for the chuckle.
R in NC
Can't do it. Can't listen to her gibberish. They should just call any segment that features Palin "Let's ask a moron."
ReplyDeleteAnon 6:52 AM - thanks for the links, so she's a laughing stock in India as well.
ReplyDeleteCheryl
Her argument is that we can't rely on government to competently provide for our retirement, our economy, our well-being, and to some extent she's right - we most certainly can't rely on government to be competent if she is a part of it.
ReplyDeletePalin needs a better camera angle to sell her sex act. I'm think a split screen, one view angled so the bumpit is huge, the other view focused the f* me shoes and ultra-short skirt.
ReplyDeletePalin's flaccid male audience doesn't hear a word she says anyway. But the talking head shot is losing votes from her "base".
Palin's handlers are simply not marketing their product well.
I shake my head everytime someone calls her governor.
ReplyDeleteCracks me up when someone tries to have a dialogue with her because she does not like having to answer questions Bristol hasn't googled the answer to.
You cannot fix Stupid; stupid being Sarah.
ReplyDeleteIf I can find some anti nausea medication I may read posts at C4P. They have a black and white limited view championing their leader lying and cheating to win is okay as long as they win.
ReplyDeleteGiven the bots were convinced that Bristol winning DWTS would land Palin in the oval office consider the illogical thinking and disregard most people vote for competency not ability to bitch slap the most.
"Entitlement mentality"? This woman has the gall to lecture people who rightfully are collecting on Social Security after paying into it all their lives as having an "entitlement mentality"?
ReplyDeleteI seem to remember her spokesperson's response when Palin was busted for charging the State of Alaska for FOR NIGHTS SPENT IN HER OWN HOME: "The Governor is entitled to a per diem and she takes it."
Btw, I really would like to know if Sarah Palin has a government funded pension as a result of her brief tenure as governor. We already know at least one member of her family gets free health care because Todd Palin is a whopping twenty five percent native Alaskan.
This woman holds a beg-a-thon on her birthday, then has the nerve to preach about personal responsibility.
ReplyDeleteRightwingers are not living in reality. That's just all there is to it. These people are seriously deluded.
Nice how she "apologizes" for the four second delay" while interrupting Bill in real-time.
ReplyDeleteWhat a dumb fucking clown.
I think Sarah chewed her leg off to get out of that trap.
ReplyDeleteI agree: She and her supporters will see this exchange as a win for her. She is acting like someone who thinks they are going to run for President and seemed pleased with herself and her answers. She didn't seem at all aware of the irony of her, of all people, talking about the importance of being honest and living in reality.
ReplyDelete9:31....I wanna know how come the 3 or 4 paint chip eating cousin humping, 3 toothed, retarded morons that inhabit c4pee get to come over here and post but we can't go over there and post. I'd really like to watch them start hyperventilating right before their little pinheads implode
ReplyDeletewhat a fuking idiot. Somebody ought'a adjust that idiots meds. She was so spun up chasing her tail hyperventilating I was thinking at any second she was gonna tip over with an aneurysm.
ReplyDelete"Analyst?"
ReplyDelete"Anal-ist" is more like it. She talks out her ass and she's completely full of crap.
Idiot. Period. Exclamation point.

ReplyDeleteIt's so much fun watching Sarah Palin do her Tina Fey impression.
ReplyDeleteI think she's lying about a 4 second delay. She repeated him a couple of times almost immediately after he said it. I'll give a second- MAYBE- but she lied- again.

ReplyDeleteWTF???
ReplyDeleteAs proposed, House Bill 1202 would create tough state punishments for those who "intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly" hire an unauthorized immigrant. Violators could face up to two years in jail and a fine of up to $10,000.
But it is an exception included in the bill that is drawing attention. Those who hire unauthorized immigrants would be in violation of the law -- unless they are hiring a maid, a lawn caretaker or another houseworker.

Are you sure he called her an analyst? He may have said "anal cyst"... he was referring to Sarah Palin, after all.
ReplyDeleteyukonark said... I'm surprised she didn't say, "let them eat cake." @8:53 AM
ReplyDeleteI believe she said, Let them eat moose. ..."they have moose, and that's saying something"
Normally when you post a clip of Sarah appearing on TV, I can watch about a minute or two and then Sarah's voice gets to me and I have to turn it off. This time, it was Bill O'Reilly who was even more obnoxious irritating than Sarah. He kept interrupting her, not even waiting for her to give her lame answer. She sounded as if she had even read the questions in advance and was offering the prompted responses. And, I am not a friend of Sarah, trying to defend her. It's just that this time, Bill was even worse than Sarah. He must have gotten tired of trying to make her look good, carrying her and pretending to have a conversation with a reasonable person. He knows how dumb she is, and now, he doesn't even try to hide his disdain for her.

As Joe Biden said in the 2008 VP debate (still amazes me that Sarah Palin ever got as far as that stage), "I don't hear a plan."
ReplyDeleteAnd we won't hear a unique Sarah Palin plan. All she can do is parrot Paul Ryan's plan, probably because she was told he's the "smart" Republican. And his plan has already been debunked for the tired old rehashed let-them-eat-catfood plan that it is.
Fucking bullshit. She's reading from a teleprompter. This really is digusting on Fox's part. "Fox News annalyst"????
ReplyDeletesnowflake snookie sarah palin was just on FAUX tv with Judge Jeanie - she is challenging Kathy Griffin, saying Kathy is a "50-year-old has been comediANNNN" and telling Kathy to "come up to Alaska if you want to pick on me!" Sooooo Presidential! Palin explained the leopard print high heels in Long Island, saying she borrowed them from Bristol.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.therightscoop.com/sarah-palin-not-happy-about-tea-party-candidates-compromising-on-budget-cuts/
Judge Jeanie just let scarah talk and talk and talk......HA HA HA HA HA!
in reference to the judge jeanine "interview", amongst other things and for the little bit I was able to watch, seems that darned 4 second alaska audio delay wasn't in effect as it was on the recent $carah/O'really "interview", imagine that
ReplyDeleteI am kind of stumped by the mixed messages that FauxNews telegraphs about The Ignorant Bitch.
ReplyDeleteMurdoch and Ailes obviously simply think that Palin is bonerific. They go all woody thinking about her and as long as the dick's are calling the shots, they're content to keep her around.
O'Reilly seems to barely be able to contain his contempt for her. Since he fancies himself an intellectual, that is understandable. Palin is probably about the LEAST intellectual person that O'Reilly would ever have on his show. It's hard to tell whether he simply wants to use her as his rhetorical punching bag or whether he is receiving orders from the bigger dicks above. (Yeah, I know, you could make a case that NOBODY is a bigger dick than O'Reilly.)
Beck has also been rather brutal with Palin. I get the impression that he would be glad to simply give her all the rope she wants and then he'd stand back and grin while she swings. I would note that Palin hasn't done Beck for awhile, as it were.
There have also been a few other jabs at Palin from within the FauxNews fold that I am loathe to explain.
One thing is certain: if she doesn't have the full support from FauxNews, she won't be able to count on the full support from the sheeple flock. And if she ain't drawing in all the toothless goobers, who the hell is going to whisk her into the White House?
Oh, yeah, I forgot. Jesus is going to do that.

Sarah if I remember correctly, there is a video with Kathy knocking on your front door ya stupid shit.
Gasman,
ReplyDeleteFrom almost day one of SP's gig on Fox I have sensed that Billo and Beck are not fans. There have certainly been times over the past year and a half that both have thrown her a curve ball and let her flounder or have called her out on misstatements. I think they barely tolerate her. Hard to say whether they get their instruction from the higher ups telling them they have to feature her from time to time. I suspect thats probably the case.
I'll be surprised though if after her contract is up that they renew it.
Sheesh
