News Corpse produces a 2012 Retrospective of Sarah Palin's Humiliations and Hilarity.

Courtesy of News Corpse:  

The past year has presented a wealth of unintentional comedy from right-wing raconteurs whose generosity in embarrassing themselves was profound. There was Donald Trump and Dick Morris and Allen West and many others vying for the top spot in the Crackpottery Hall of Fame. 

However, this year, as in much of the recent past, the competition was too stiff and everyone had to bow, once again, to the Queen of Quackery: Sarah Palin. What follows are just a few of the most memorably humiliating hijinks in a year of world class buffoonery. 

Today Show Ratings Down With Sarah Palin As Guest Host 

In a desperate attempt to counter-program ABC’s Good Morning America, NBC invited Palin to guest host their Today Show. The result was an episode that underperformed NBC’s average and may have been the catalyst that led to ABC eventually beating NBC in the morning news wars for the first time in years. 

Sarah Palin Calls Nancy Pelosi A ‘Dingbat’ – No, Really! 

Appearing with fellow crackpot Sean Hannity on Fox News, Palin responded to a question about Democratic Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi by saying… “Well, first off, Nancy Pelosi is a dingbat. And she is the perfect spokesperson for this whole agenda of the far-left running the Democrat Party.”

These are only a few of the great examples  available at News Corpse, which you can see yourself by clicking the link at the top.

You know I was just thinking of doing something similar to this, and was wondering when I would find the time, so I am completely in the debt of News Corpse for doing such a fine job and saving me many hours of research.

Feel free to add any of your own examples if you would like.

    More on Nancy Pelosi; she is married to the same man for decades, had five successful children--NONE of whom have "starred" in any failed reality shows or gotten pregnant as a teen or had articles written in the National Enquirer. What do we know about Pelosi's family? Not much--none of her children or grandchildren were born under mysterious conditions, she never made up ridiculous stories about flying for 14 hours after her water broke with nobody noticing she was even pregnant. None of her children have ever sabotaged school buses or set fire to boats or dropped out of high school.

      Yes Nancy is was Speaker for many years and did not QUIT!
      Sarah Palin or Baldy as we call her here is JUST a FUCKING ASSHOLE!
      She has nerve calling anyone "Dingbat" when she is known exclusively as "The wild Alaskan Dingbat"!

    I find it encouraging and very satisfying that Americans see Sarah Palin for exactly who she is.

      And where would Tim Tebow be without her?

      Btw, although Tim was the backup QB in NY, the Jets coaching staff opted to start the third string QB over Tim. In pre-game warmups Tim would strut onto the field and throw 124 passes acting like he was ready to start.

      Tim really loves being seen as the perfect choirboy athlete. He loves it. He remains silent when the fans chant his name - not once has he asked his fans to be fair to the other QBs. Not once. In addition, it has been revealed Tim told the Jets coaches he did not want to be a wildcat QB, something he should have done before signing on with the team.

      Now two NFL coaching staffs have taken a close look at Tebow and have rejected him.

      How relevant is this comment to the discussion? About as relevant as your question.

      Tim might actually be a starting quarterback without Plain. remember it wasn't until she started to root for him that he started to screw up left and right.
      Everything she supports or touches turns to shit. She's a kind of Typhoid Mary alright.

      At least Tebow Goes to the Gym and does the work (...AND he took the BRoncos to the playoffs when he was their QB...)

      Palin lies about being Pregnant, for Krissakes!

  5. My favorite line from the News Corpse article:

    "Consequently, there is not likely going to be another Palin retrospective at the end of 2013. I miss her already."

    (it's deliciously snarky)

    This year Sarah´s mental illness was on full display.

    Sarah revealed herself, from her ¨commentaries¨ on Fox to her ¨fashion¨ sense, to be out of touch with reality.

    In hindsight, treating her children like accessories was Sarah´s only option in 2008. Otherwise, she would have come across as a snarky slab of greasy meat in a tight skirt and lipstick.

    Her alarming physical deterioration raises immediate concern not for Sarah but for her children. I suspect she would not remember her children´s names if asked in a press conference.

      Agreed. When you look like this someone needs to help you, probably both from a health sense and CERTAINLY from a "fashion" sense.

      Any 50 year old granny that dresses like this has some serious mental illness or disability:

    4. Yeah tease the blogger for spelling mistakes. Nice.

      To be honest I am one of the most careless typists on the planet, and it is not unusual for me to insert a number into the middle of at word as well.

      Essentially I spend about fifteen minutes researching and typing a post and forty five minutes correcting my numerous mistakes.

      And by the way the s is very close to the c and I am pretty sure it moves when I am not paying attention.

    I knew if we were patient enough this day would come. Way back when, Gryphen mentioned if we only knew the truth we'd probably feel sorry for her. It's way too late for that now after the havoc she's wreaked. I find her continued quest for adoration and notoriety pathetic and enjoy each accompanying smack down to the core of my very being.

    When Sarah Palin was Governor of Alaska, her photo appeared on the front page of the ADN every day, "Our Governor." After she failed to be elected VP in 2008, she did not fade from the media. Sarah was a master at getting attention for herself, sometimes good publicity and sometimes bad. She sought the spotlight by saying outrageous things and doing outrageous things. It is not like her to be quiet.

    Following the Arizona shootings and Sarah's use of words like cross hairs, targets and reloading, Roger Ailes told her not to respond to the negative comments. Instead, she was supposed to "lie low." Sarah could not resist. She filmed that Blood Libel response against Ailes wishes.

    Needing to be in the media, she teased her fans about her prospects as a presidential candidate for the 2012 election. That family vacation American History Donate to her PAC bus tip was a joke. Sarah defined the limits of her intelligence with that crazy story about Paul Revere ringing those bells and firing those warning shots. She tried to upstage both Romney's and Bachmann's announcements that they were running. In the end, it was a tease. All that Sarah had left was her slot on Fox where she could vent her anger at President Obama, four years after losing to him and her Facebook posts.

    There could be several reasons for Sarah's continuing silence. After all, her Facebook post is usually ghost written. There could be some kind of problem with her best known ghost writer. Sarah could be pondering her position in terms of the FBI investigation of Dairygate. Her contract with Fox may be up in January, and for a change, she is listening to Ailes. The latest photos of Sarah showed a very thin woman who might have some serious health problems. My secret wish is that someone is willing to release the details of Babygate in exchange for a grand sum of money. The only problem is whether Sarah pays the high price-- or the publisher. Whatever the reason, I suppose that Silence if Golden, even if it is completely unlike Sarah to be quiet for such a long period of time. (Last Facebook post, December 19).

      I agree re: Sarah's silence.

      Did you notice that this "silence" happened around the time that "Hostess" went bankrupt?
      I don't believe in coincidences, and have always maintained that some "postage" goes to RAM. Sarah probably pays her salary in twinkies instead of money.
      Whatever it is, it's got to be big. She never lets a Christmas go without one of her "religious" posts.

    Ever notice that Palin projects the name calling directed towards her? Dingbat, wee wee'd up, spewing, grow a big stick and no cohones (Todd), panties in a twist, hopium, and many more. I just can't remember them all.

    As for her family names I believe they are named after the locations where they were concieved. Track -at the bleachers, Bristol -on the bay, Willow -under a tree, Piper -in the back of a small plane, Trigg - at gunpoint. Just think if she didn't get her toobes tied she would have more names added to the clan. Names like Parking lot, McKiinley, Target, Coffee House, Alley, Lucille, Teebelle, Nordstrom, Turnpike, Igloo, Bering, and my favorite -Russia.

      Curtis flew a four seater single engined Cessna Model 185, tail number N4849C. Since its last inspection on 9/1/2000 till he crashed on 8/9/2001, the plane was used a total of 32 hours.

      I read somewhere he was an avid runner. Not sure though but either Sarah or Curtis kept "track" of one another because of the child.

    I laughed when I read their brief retrospective, the screen grabs, alone, are worth clicking the link!

    "I can't think of one prominent Republican who talks the way they talk" was just priceless. Love the bell and bat under her photo - the gavel shows who wields real power!

    I wonder if Dan Quayle sent her a thank you note for taking his place in history as the dumbest Republican ever?
