I find it funny that all the news clowns are in a snit over the "palm" cliffnotes yet say nothing when Obama uses a teleprompter to give a 2000 word pep talk to a bunch of middle school kids.


My problem with it isn't so much the notes themselves, but the fact that she had just finished critisizing Obama for using the teleprompter.

Hmm.

Would you rather have Obama or Palin as President?

Understand I am no particular fan of Obama's, but the idea of Palin as President seems appalling to me.


Put me down for "None of the Above".

I think I have a better shot in 2012 than Palin does.

laughing.gif Now that IS funny. I hadn't heard that. Although, I must admit I haven't really been paying attention to the news for the past few weeks.

Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.

It's all been embarrassing and stupid, actually. Obama uses a teleprompter like every other famous person on TV, Palin was an idiot to point that out. She was even a bigger idiot to have 'lift American spirits' on her hand. But then the White House guy takes the cake for making a terrible joke of it and writing on his own palm. Grow up, nobody's impressed.

Between you and Palin, no scratch that, between you and any other Republican, i would vote for you.

*shrugs* daily show ran a piece on this. And they raised a funny point. Why did she need to write "raise american spirits" on her hand?

Then there was the whole "retard" thing, where she asked somebody to resign from his senate position because he called liberals F'n retards. Then when Limbaugh (of all people) said that it was stupid to argue over the word retard (of course he did this by saying that you're calling liberals what they are, retards, which they aren't), she instantly changed her stance towards it because Limbaugh said it.

With every passing month I think Palins hopes of being president die faster and faster (of course they were probably already dead after her VP run). And currently the republican party doesn't really have a standout for the 2012 race.

Oh.

I guess I sort of see Palin as that stupid kid in primary school. Everyone knows she's a little bit thick, no need to laugh uproariously about it. tongue.gif
