When asked about the greatest lessons she learned from 2008, Palin did not mention the friction between McCain's camp and hers. Instead she said the experience informed her public relations strategy.
"One thing I learned is that you cannot trust the mainstream media to accurately report on [your record and accomplishments]," she said. "You have to have the boldness, the courage to set the record straight yourself."
She even accused Republicans of not defending their records vigorously enough.
"Too often, Republicans have the fighting instinct of sheep sometimes," she said. When it comes to correcting the record, "I will put my foot down."
Rebutting a criticism often used against her, Palin said, "It's not victimization, I'm not playing the victim card."
It is informative to always remember that when Palin says she is going to "correct the record" what she is really saying is that she is going to deny that she lied, or said something stupid, about something and attack the journalists who dared correct her misstatement by claiming they misreported what she said.
Then she, and her followers, will insist that her words are being altered through a liberal media filter and if only people would let her speak for herself she would make a whole lot more sense.
So in the spirit of letting Sarah "be Sarah," here is her entire Q and A that took place after her India speech, without any filter and presented by her very own sycophants at PalinTV. Nobody can claim media bias here.
Go ahead and listen to as much of her mooseshit as you can, remember to check your ears periodically for bleeding, and tell me if it smells any better without the "liberal media filter."
The Indian people are certainly getting the "full Palin." She trotted out her short skirt, wild hair, and screechy high pitched voice. Yep the Indian people were certainly "sold a pup."
A crazy, inarticulate, thin-skinned pup.
P.S. I do have one request from any of you who managed to get to the 23:30 mark of the video. Could you please tell me what in the hell the "hyphenated days" of India were? I am trying to make sense of that and I think it is causing a brain aneurysm.
Update: For those who simply cannot bring themselves to listen to Palin talk there was some very entertaining liveblogging done by Pundit Commentator.
Update 2: Here is the introduction of Palin by Aroon Purie. I do not believe she understood that he was screwing with her.
Look at her face. She has no idea how to respond to what he is doing to her. I also love how she tried to get up and move to the podium before he was finished, and he told her to "sit there."
I can only imagine how the P-Bots will respond to THAT!
