Deconstructing Sarah Palin's Marvelously Bad Speech At CPAC

Where's William Shatner when you need him? How else will any of us ever be able to figure out what the hell she was talking about?

Robert Bartholomew

Forget William Shatner, I'm very curious about the contitributer, Bilbo, could this really be Bilbo Baggins, and if so did he write this from the Shire?

Like Sarah said:

"only dead fish go with the flow"

The truth of the matter is, Santorum will be our next president, and theire is a good chance Sarah could be our Vice President. Just think of it, instead of Michelle Obama Chinese ricecakes. Sarah can show us her recipe, for smoked salmon, and moose burgers. mmmmmm

"only dead fish go with the flow"

Yep, there's Sarah - paddling upstream, and spitting into the wind as she goes.

The truth of the matter is, Santorum will be our next president,

I'm going to print that statement and frame it. I'll use it when ever I need a good laugh.

Yeah that made me spew all over my monitor....that's a GOOD one!

Where's C4P to come to her aid? Is $arah being "taken out of context" or just badgered by the liberal press? Obviously, it couldn't be said that she's simply as sharp as a marble, could it...

Ms Palin said, ".. Obama doesn’t care about God.."

What I've been wondering is...

Ms Palin talks so much about God and church, soo, does she attend church on Sundays?

Which church does she attend?

When she's traveling, does she find a neighborhood church to visit on Sundays?

Does she tithe ten per cent to her church?

Do her children attend church and/or Sunday School?

Why did I not know what type of posts I would see in here about Sarah Palin. Some of you just can't leave that woman alone. Palin does not hold any office nor is she running for anything. All you are doing is making her paper stack higher. (stacking paper is making money for some of you nerds).

I would rather look at her than a Barbara Boxer or some of those old wrinkled congressional members from both sides.

Is that Sarah in the accompanying picture or Kenny from South Park? Just curious.

BigRedOne4Life, "for some of you nerds". You called us "nerds". Hmmm, I checked with Wikipedia which stated, "Nerds are considered to be awkward, shy, and unattractive".

OK, since you really don't know me, nor do you know what I look like, then it's ok for you to have that opinion, even though I disagree with you. Plus, "What-evah.. ;-)

Just think of how many fans Mittens could gain if he would just publicly tell Palin what he really thinks about her. Republicans would never do that though. So here it is, Palin harms Romney by showing that he's just as gutless as the rest for allowing her to crowd his stage.

By the way CuriousG,

Cornhusker4Palin is a SHE....but, SHE is still defending the indefensible

HA! s/he's an IT!!!!!

#1:12: I'm continually amazed at how empty she is and yet still garners such strong support from the right.

What amazes me, CuriousG, is how you can be amazed by that! Insanity, like water, always seeks its own level.

You know, you could make a killing on the sports books.

Right now, a bet on a Santorum presidential win is paying 12:1, and a Palin VP nomination bet is, get this, at 50:1!

The delusional ranting continues from the GOP.

The last time there was such a group delusion was 1978, Jonestown. Palin was just serving up the Kool-Aid.

Welcome (back) BRO4L

Yeah, I know. My problem is I'm a liberal and generally think better of people until they prove me wrong.

The Teapublikans voluntarily gave up any entitlement to the benefit of the doubt around 2 years ago when Mitch McConnell stood in the well of the Senate and stated unabashedly that getting rid of Obama was their principal objective. I tend to take people at their word, especially when their word convicts them.

BigRedOne4Life

Some of you just can't leave that woman alone.

When she leaves us alone you won't see any more posts about her.

Palin does not hold any office nor is she running for anything.

All the more reason she should leave us alone.

All you are doing is making her paper stack higher. (stacking paper is making money for some of you nerds).

Once Fox drops her the only paper she will be stacking is old phone books and mail order catalogs in her outhouse.

I would rather look at her than a Barbara Boxer or some of those old wrinkled congressional members from both sides.

Then get a poster of her for your bedroom. Maybe it will "help" you.

Palin fails Turing test again.

Paying Sarah Palin to speak at one of their functions is the perfect example of the GOP/RNC throwing money at bad ideas. Just like trickle down tax cuts. Tell us all the last good idea the Republicans have ever had just so we can know because I certainly can't remember one in my 40+ years!

GaryColumbus

Really? Honest and for true? So Gary, your writing this to warn the Republican party, cause, doggonit, you care. Yea right. Your writing this cause your scared. Don't be scared. You'll be ok.

That's what I thought, but he just told me today she's a he. #2.20

Maybe the account is open for many individuals to use. I also thought she was a she until you said she was a he.

Oh I know Democrats will be okay because Republicans can't even get their constituency out for the primaries. Most conservatives will stay home and the independents don't care who Teapukes have running.

Gary, there is one good idea a Repub has had within the last 40+ years.

In 1970, Nixon signed into law the EPA and NOA.

That's all I could think of, but at least it's something. :)

Unfortunately for us all, the current GOP wants to run as fast as possible from the socialist policies of that liberal Richard Nixon.

Right on Ben! Unfortunately the GOP hates the EPA even if it was one of their own whom started environmental protections. Makes a person wonder what ole Tricky Dicky would think about how the GOP has torn his ole party a new one!

One more thing that Nixon & Kissinger gave US was starting our trade relations with China! That was probably the biggest thing that Republicans have done.

How anyone can listen to this half wit is beyond me. She is good for laugh everytime she opens her mouth.

"How anyone can listen to this half wit is beyond me"

Truth is, I can't. I can't stand her voice, not even for a second, it drives me bonkers. Having listened to it all through the last part of the 2008 debacle, I just can't stand to hear her voice. Not only her horrible yowling, but, her deliberately contrived gestures that she found her Zombie base seems to think are so 'cute' are just so totally obnoxious. I just can't bear to listen or watch her for even a second. And if I force myself to listen, I find the lies and totally made up BS she spews so revolting I want to vomit.

It's bad enough just to read any of it. Even then, the horrible things she says makes me really ill. She seems to get more and more deranged and demented as her flame of self-glorification continues to diminish. Her hate-filled diatribe at the CPAC speaks volumes of her desperation to retain some modicum of acceptability of the GOPTeaBags, and the fact that she spoke for free shows that she is insanely desperate for even a small measure of attention of any kind. And her bellicose rantings in playing to the center ring of the CPAC circus shows that she knows just how low and totally demented she is willing to go to gain even a small bit of their favor.

She literally makes crap up as she goes along, testing all the time to see how her words are playing on her stooges and how much lower she needs to go in order to gain as much mileage as she can from her time at the podium. She is indeed the 'poster child' of the truly sick side of American politics and the radical religious extremists and white supremacists of the far right.

noticed the teleprompters on either side of the podium

Get the screen capture before her minions "neutralize" the image. This can't be allowed.

Probably wasn't using them, though - too far for her finger to reach.

from what I heard, Palin also copied Pelosi quote about draining the swamp. Yep, what they say...imitation is the truest form of flattery.

The quote "from what I heard" is not an original thought either.

Well, at least teleprompters are better than reading notes written on your hands. Think of how many assistants and their hands she would have needed for that long speech without the teleprompters. She would have been a hockey mom frozen on stage!

mountainmike....and do you think the right will stop to teleprompter criticism of Obama? not a chance, but what else do they have but criticism. They cannot highlight what their own party has accomplished so bash the other side. Negativity is what we have been hearing from the repubs since inauguration. Oh well, we're tough and the congressional dems better get tougher.

I haven't exactly heard a lot of cheerful noise coming from the left either.

Negativity is what sells in politics. What is a minority party suppose to do? There are two competing ideologies. Both have their negatives and positives. Neither is perfect and I do not fall for the old "at least they are attempting something" sale the Democrats use.

If the Republicans are successful and regain the government; I want to see you come in here and encourage the Democrats to go along with their policies.

bigRedOne....You right the dems do indeed need to get out and highlight their accomplishments when they were in majority and there are many to compliment. They are lousy at messaging and we only have a few that will go before the cameras. When our nation was on the edge of collapse it took both parties to lay down their ideology and get to work. Instead, what we saw was total fighting and voting against the stimulus from the repubs while behind close doors they were begging for the money for their states. While there are many amendments in the President's HCR from the repubs and not one voted for it, they claimed they were locked out of the negotiations. When the republican leadership states his number goal is defeat for the POTUS that does not seem too caring, you think? The repubs are not being honest in their rhetoric when behind close door they do just the opposite. Just briefly saw senator Demitt at CPAC talk about how both parties are suppose to be at war cause they have different ideologies....it's bs!!! The people polled in 2010 that we wanted compromise and both parties to work together. That word is something that the repubs are refusing to speak, so how are we suppose to get anything done? I'm tired of the democrats doing all the compromising while the repubs move the goal post even further or as the teapartiers want to just blow sh!t up. And excuse me, but I did not hear negativity in the election from Obama and that is one of the reasons why he was elected. What's the republican message been so far but wanting the economy to stay deflated in hopes that we vote against the President. That's a funcked up strategy and I want them to pay the price for it come election time!! We already see what republican do when they win, ask Wisconsin about that.

One sentence..You and people who think like you are not the people the Republican candidate is going after. He has 47% to start with. 3.1% in the solid middle is the prize, not converting people that are Democrats.

bigRedOne....The republican presidential candidate just wants to win the election and it will take more than his base to win. If the candidate is Mitt it seems that he also has to convince republicans that he is their man...that ain't going too well so far. The congress will still be divided unless the dems win back the house and more of the senate to stop to record filibustering going on. When it boils down to it, the people value both parties input, but if the leader of the republicans keep the strategy of no regardless, then there is no accomplishments for the American people, period. And it seems that the republican members under Mitch's leadership do not possess the backbone to speak up and do what is right for the country. We need to change the congress and the obstructionist agenda of Mitch McConnell and rid the grenade throwing teapartiers in the house, not this President.

sista:

That is your personal opinion. Just as strong as you believe you are right, there are just as many people who believe the total opposite.

He can't win without the base, the same as Obama. Republicans have to win a primary first. You can't win the presidency if you don't win the primary.

I think Republicans are doing exactly what the people that voted for them put them there to do. If you didn't vote Republican; you probably didn't agree with the agenda. People that say to Democrats "I used to be, I was until, I won't ever vote that way again, I'm voting Dem this time" is a damn lie. Mark my words 47% D, 47% R to start with.

Curious. . .Whether sister Sarah used them or not, we also saw that Romney used them to keep himself from going off script. I do not care which or both parties use them cause it is just a tool. But when those on the right constantly berated the President for him using them, it's so hypocritical and downright stupid. We have more important things to accomplish and they were being so petty and stuck on stupid. Hopefully that criticism will be over for now til they find a new one, but simple is what simple does.
