WORLDmag.com | Community | Blog Archive | Palin cover released (http://online.worldmag.com/2009/10/01/palin-cover-released/ - broken link)
Nice.
It's a ok cover I've seen nicer pictures of her though; people can say what they want but she is quite photogenic...although I've never been fond of that "stare into space" look.
No, Palin is not merely stupid because liberals so say so; the evidence is indeed conclusive. For God's sake; here is a woman who touted her foreign diplomacy skills by saying she could see Russia from her house! She runs out of breath in the middle of sentences like a ditzy cheerleader who talks too much. She can't even run her own family, as evidenced by an out-of-control impregnated, unmarried teen daughter. She bailed on her FIRST term as governor. She wrecked the career of a former son-in-law with the malice of someone from the cast of "Mean Girls." The thought of this woman as a president is to me as absurd as Al Franken being Secretary of Defense.
BTW--I'm a moderate Independant, not a whiny liberal. Though I'll whine all day long when it comes to Ms. Palin.

That was Tina Fey.
Although I agree that Palin should never run for political office again, let's not exaggerate or use attacks on her personal life or her family. Just the fact that she was elected by the good people of Alaska and betrayed them to promote her book and make big bucks at speaking engagements should be enough proof to anyone, even a loyal Republican, that she cannot be trusted to hold a position of power or responsibility.
I honestly don't think Palin could handle the scrutiny of a presidential campaign. She had trouble getting through 3 months. Most of that time she was hidden from the press. She could never get away with that again and would be forced to appear on programs like Meet The Press and Face The Nation to debate/discuss issues and defend her policies. Winking can only take you so far (and she's getting a lot older too!)
"As Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where– where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border." --Sarah Palin, explaining why Alaska's proximity to Russia gives her foreign policy experience, interview with CBS's Katie Couric, Sept. 24, 2008

"They are also building schools for the Afghan children so that there is hope and opportunity in our neighboring country of Afghanistan." --Sarah Palin, speaking at a fundraiser in San Francisco, Oct. 5, 2008

"I think on a national level your Department of Law there in the White House would look at some of the things that we've been charged with and automatically throw them out." --Sarah Palin, referring to a department that does not exist while attempting to explain why as president she wouldn't be subjected to the same ethics investigations that compelled her to resign as governor of Alaska, ABC News interview, July 7, 2009
Quote:
"I'm the mayor, I can do whatever I want until the courts tell me I can't.'" --Sarah Palin, as quoted by former City Council Member Nick Carney, after he raised objections about the $50,000 she spent renovating the mayor's office without approval of the city council
Sarah Palin is not selling well on the lecture circuit,
an industry insider told the New York Post.
"The big lecture buyers in the US are paralyzed with
fear about booking her, basically because they think
she is a blithering idiot," the source said. "They don't
want to tick people off."
Wow, this is incredible even coming from the Post which is a Murdock Rag...
I don't know where you're getting this info, Dukieboy, but she has more requests for speaking than she can handle. She has to turn some down, because she cannot do them all.
