It does because people who can laugh at themselves are willing to accept criticism. She is incapable of accepting criticism and is unable to admit mistakes. She never does it. That's one of the reasons she was such a poor leader and quit. Great leaders are always able to admit mistakes and learn from them. This is one of the reasons she is such a profoundly stupid woman.

Yes, some people believe whatever the fuzzy blue light tells them...



"Fox News Channel quoted an unnamed McCain campaign figure as saying that Sarah Palin did not know that Africa was a continent. Who would say such a thing? On Monday the answer popped up on a blog and popped out of the mouth of David Shuster, an MSNBC anchor. “Turns out it was Martin Eisenstadt, a McCain policy adviser, who has come forward today to identify himself as the source of the leaks,” Mr. Shuster said.
Trouble is, Martin Eisenstadt doesn’t exist."

Not your top three talking points. The Palinites and the Paulites need to get together. They live in a land of delusion. Hell I like conservative talking points, Palin is just bad at them, and she has done nothing to impress me.

She quit as governor of Alaska, if anything, that is not something I would want to teach my kids, quit your job and one that is so important to people? Thats your "maverick"?




So we have one thing from a campaign years ago, let alone all of the other people (still well liked in the Republican party) who said she was inept, not ready, and wasn't ready to be President. Hell even Dick Cheney even said she wasn't ready.




"all of the other people"?

"Dick Cheney"?

Does doing your own thinking make you feel anxious and insecure?


26 out of 40 test subjects were willing to give the fatal electric shocks in the Milgram experiments because they were told to do so.


1962 Yale University Obedience, The Milgram Experiment - YouTube


Other experiments have shown people will stay in what they believe is a burning building because an authority figure tells them to stay put and the people around them obey.

Screw that!

Join the tiny minority who think for themselves.

Grow a pair and question authority.

**** off the compliant herd!

Live a little.

"Boston University history professor Brendan McConville said, “Basically when Paul Revere was stopped by the British, he did say to them, ‘Look, there is a mobilization going on that you’ll be confronting,’ and the British are aware as they’re marching down the countryside, they hear church bells ringing — she was right about that — and warning shots being fired. That’s accurate.”

Score one for the fuzzy blue light and our failed public school system.

Once again they have teamed up to give us a generation that learns about our past from historically inaccurate cartoons.

From my point of view, I've never seen the big deal about Palin's looks. I find her an ordinary looking woman who tries to make herself look "bigger" personality wise with that poofy hair and those big eyeglasses.

And if you look at her closely, you will see that her face is doing what all of our faces do past a certain age - responding to the pull of gravity. She's starting to look rather saggy and "jowly," in fact.

Eye candy? Nope. I never saw that (although she does have a nice figure).

It will be interesting to see what she looks like when she's in her seventies, but I suspect she will still be trying to look young by having that same hairdo, big glasses, and wearing tight pants, Superman t-shirts, and ugly, ugly high-heeled sandals (or whatever they were).

Pelosi has enough botox to kill a herd of Rinos. Shultz looks like a crack addict that stumbled off a reality show and into Congress.

HaHaHaHa
If you were following what was being said you MIGHT have gotten it. It was more along the lines of President Obama thinks and what Palin knows.

I guess that means the Palins are good for something - getting rep points!
No again, this is how Palin bashers get rep points!! Start a bad thread and the sheep fall right in line one bash after the next...............

Well, I'm off to find the vibrator thread; I'm sure I can find something to say that will get me a few more rep points.
You may do very well over there, better than politics or thinking your President is doing a fine job. Now if we can figure out how to divert that line of Obama voters to the Free Vibrator line we'll do just fine in November, shouldn't be to diffucult..........

When you get there you will see Bristol some how gets mentioned.

Sorry. I've never learned the language of "jibberish."
