She Keeps Attacking Obama So...Just How Stupid Is She?
“Palin Keeps Attacking Obama: "No Present Button"

“Governors, she said make "tough decisions to best serve the people who hire us. And we are held accountable every day. The buck stops on our desk. We are not just one of many voting yea or nay or present. No. There is no present button in our office, is there? We have to make the tough decisions."

The line about voting "present," of course, is a clear jab at Obama -- lifted from an attack line that the McCain campaign (and the Clinton camp) used repeatedly on the trail. The crowd, it seemed, got the joke.

The dig comes, moreover, after Palin has continued airing concerns about Obama'a associations and readiness to be commander-in-chief in recent interviews.” Cont…

19. I thought it interesting that in the interview with Larry King she had an 'Alaska' pin on
but no American flag pin.

I also read somewhere that she had recently been discussing AIPs stance on succession.

But of course she's a Real American living up there in Real America.

:sarcasm:

22. Or what does she say to the fact that McCain supported the same
sort of "socialism" that they both tried to vilify Obama for. Or the hypocrisy of her calling the media "jerks" for printing "rumors." When are they going to conclusively follow-up question her on her endless spew of nonsense by saying, "You were allowed in front of these cameras to answer the fucking questions!"

But they didn't even do that in the debate, so are they gonna do it munching on moose chili in her ginormous kitchen?

4. Now, doggonit, she has future plans to help this grrreat country.
Her and Joe the Plumber plan to go to Eye-rack to look for those WMDs which her knows are still under some rock. She wants to talk to Saddam's two sons to see if Joe can extract critical info as to where they are located. If she's suck-cessful won't that be a feather in she cap and aid in propelling she to the GOP nomination in 2012.

Without even setting foot in Alaska. Can't be that hard of a job.

15. Who held you accountable when you gallivanted from one end of the country
to the other during the campaign, Sarah? Who was running your state while you were on your VeePee Wannabee Tour?

You are a pathetic, clueless loser, Sarah.

16. You know what? I don't have any hard feelings lingering towards McCain.
She, however, can take a flying fuck at a rolling donut.

17. uhhh, as far as reusing that "voting present" argument...has anyone informed Bible Spice
that Obama has been elected as the next Chief Executive and Commander in Chief and that no longer will pass without his signature and no military forces will ever be deployed without his consent....it makes no intellectual sense to keep using this argument...

Although Governor Palin probably thinks the word moot is plural for moose and therefore thinks it's fair "game"....get it??

20. Um, Sarah..how about those "Where's Sarah" buttons AK lawmakers used to wear??
Because YOU wouldn't drag your ASS to Juneau while they were in session. And you got PAID to not stay there...you got PAID to stay in your OWN home:

http://mudflats.wordpress.com/2008/11/10/palin-will-continue-to-steal-cookies-she-says/

Palin, who earns $125,000 a year, claimed and received $16,951 as her allowance, which officials say was permitted because her official “duty station” is Juneau, according to an analysis of her travel documents by The Washington Post.

The governor’s daughters and husband charged the state $43,490 to travel, and many of the trips were between their house in Wasilla and Juneau, the capital city 600 miles away, the documents show.

Now, this is a sore spot with many Alaskans. Palin is not a fan of Juneau. She’s there as little as she can possibly manage. State lawmakers even wore buttons saying “Where’s Sarah?” in protest. Working in Juneau is part of the job. It is, after all, our state’s capitol, even though some wish it wasn’t. There have been a couple attempts to move the capitol from Juneau to Wasilla, or another location that is on the road system. But for right now, travel to Juneau by plane is just part of the package and everyone knows that going in.

From the Juneau Empire:

“Palin has spent little time in Juneau, rarely coming to the state capitol except when the Legislature was in session, and sometimes not even then. During a recent special session called by Palin herself, she faced criticism from several legislators for not showing up personally to push for her agenda. Someone at the Capitol even printed up buttons asking, ‘Where’s Sarah?’”


Many Alaskans figured that the fact that Palin was charging the state a per diem fee, while in the act of shunning our state capitol so she could stay home in Wasilla would be her undoing. THEN when we found out about her children showing up at events when they were uninvited, unexptected, and on the state’s dime, that was just too much. Swanky hotel rooms for her daughters, expensive multiple one-way flights…you could almost feel the fiscal conservatives, and budget watchdogs bristling. She was going to be in biiiiig trouble.
