Freepers imploding over Palin going on with Couric again |
|
One guy even called her a moron and several questioned McCain's judgment. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2092615/postsThey even created a strategy for her so she won't stumble so much: KISS, but changed to mean Keep It Short Sarah. They are so scared she will come off like a babbling idiot. Newsflash freepers, it is too late. Palin has been exposed for the airheaded moron that she is.

41. What happened to they're the "party of facts, not emotions" |
|
They're operating strictly out of fear - feelings.
I thought that they were so proud of that. Seems to me they would put their collective brains together and demand decent representation.
It was bad enough that they're pretending to like McCain, now they're pretending Palin's competent.
Guess it's not about facts. Well after all this is from the party who is deriding education, calling it "elitist".
What do they tell their kids? "See, look what you can accomplish when you're at the bottom of your class like McCain, and an idiot like Palin? No need to be smart kids. Just marry up or look cute.
Go over there and read how they talk about Palin's clothes and hair and have cute little lipstick slogans.
How pathetic.

47. so this is why the 1st interview has been scrubbed off utube? |

They are getting a do-over? And, will actually push it as THE interview. Hope she brings those answers in this time, or writes them in the palm of her hand, something..

for a female - one who shares my values of integrity, kindness, compassion and hope, in other words a democrat because republican governments only care about people before birth.

But that would never happen. Democrats don't value ignorance and incompetence like Republicans do.

Edited on Sun Sep-28-08 05:56 PM by TTUBatfan2008
are insane. These fuckers are wimps and cowards. They can't handle their party "leaders" being asked OBVIOUS questions. It's not Couric's fault Palin can't answer some pretty fucking important questions. They expect everything to be soft ball bullshit.
I wonder how well Palin (or McCain) would have done in that interview Barack had with O'Reilly. Imagine McCain having an interview like that with Olbermann. He would get his ass shredded to pieces.

And that Katie Couric is EVIL. They want Sarah to shut up because they know she's stoopid. And yet they want to inflict her on the rest of us as VP. These people suck.

Palin will walk her around Wasilla and show off her crowning achievement; the hockey stadium that plunged the city into debt. Then they will get into a helicopter for some wolf hunting. Finally they will look over at Russia and Palin will explain how she commands the Alaskan air national guard to shoot down Russian fighter jets.

Katie Couric asked easy questions. Palin made herself look bad. Is it Couric's fault that Palin made claims she couldn't support?

19. La la la la - Actual Freeper Comments |
|
"What the heck is wrong with Republicans? I am so sick and tired of their wrong moves"
"Maybe the McCain campaign geniuses will next schedule interviews with Keith Olberman and Chris Matthews? What the hell is going on? Why are they snubbing people like Brit Hume, Rush Limbaugh, etc., in favor of these MSM hacks?"
"Astounding. I truly question McCain’s judgment."
"Perhaps the CFR, Illumanti and the Bildebergers have spoken. I watched G H W Bush literally “give up” about two months before the election in 1992. I couldn't figure what was going on, but it looks like in retrospect it was Clinton's turn and Bush Sr. caught on."
In reponse to prior comment: "It’s very possible. I can see McCain giving up soon since nothing seems to hurt Obama. The October surprise could be that Obama has a Nazi flag hung on the wall in his basement and is a child molester and he’ll still win the election. We’re fighting a losing battle here."
"personally i think she should be exposing (poor choice of word) herself as much as possible in unfriendly waters. she needs the practice because things are going to get much worse. the debate is not going to be a walk in the park with many millions watching."
"Perhaps the McCain campaign is managing expectations in anticipation of the Veep debate. The NBC-watching public will tune in to the debate expecting the Couric-presented Palin to totally lose; when she rips Biden a new one, they'll be doubly impressed." :rofl:
"it is like send a chicken to hang out with Colonel Sanders."
"Anyone else having heart palpitations? I think I’ll take some aspirin."
"I love Sarah, but I have to tell you, she is being sabotaged from within the GOP. Keep in mind that if Sarah wins (regardless of whether McCain is elected), the incestuous insiders at the RNC lose. If she is a sensationally popular VP — which, left to be herself she could well be — she will have the power to help shape the political scene. And if she is not thoroughly discredited in a Republican lost, she could be the new face of the party — tossing out the old-face losers.
So, in short: the incestuous GOPer “expert” insiders have to bury Sarah now, one way or the other.
Politics ain’t beanbags."
"Seriously, if she’s going to spend more time with Couric, then either Sarah or her campaign manager should step down, because at least one of them aint thinkin’ properly."
"Ok, its time to say it... WTF!!!! "
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Freeper idiocy never fails to cheer me up considerably :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

39. That Freeper Thread Tells You All You Need To Know About Their Support of Palin... |
|
I would characterize the majority of responses in that thread as examples of fear and loathing, and dawning recognition that Palin's Support is spiralling downward out of control.
One response even acknowledged that if Palin screws up again with Couric, maybe she is just not ready(to be VP).
I just wonder what the mental health of these Freepers will be like the closer we get to the election.
