3. Wow. Just wow. What absolute sleaze. Is Lyda Green overweight?
Edited on Sun Aug-31-08 12:13 AM by Hissyspit
He seems to make a reference to her size, too, and she laughs at that. Or did I read it wrong?

4. You read it right.
He said her seat must be a "big cushy one." Palin thought that was a hoot too.
Here's Lyda Green:

8. Wasn't even a laugh...
was more like a schoolgirls giggle. "Shit" seems like a nice way to put it, I had another word, but discretion keeps me from using it here. I just hope that the Obama campaign is ready to go after her, I mean Jeez, how hard can it be! Everything the Democrats and Hillary stand for, she is against. They need to trust their base and the majority of the American women and put her views out there for everyone to see. I was hoping that they'd be all over her this weekend so that by the time the repuke convention starts, she'd already be toast.

7. She doesn't really look fat to me...
Maybe he was thinking more along the lines of the way a Laz-y-boy is big and cushy, and not really talking about her actual size?

9. She doesn't look fat to me, either, but to an asshole right-wing radio show bully
she probably does. I think he was referring to her appearance.

11. She belongs to Feminists for Life, the bitches that lure pregnant women
into fake clinics and lie to them about the health consequences of abortion. They tell them they are shortening their lives and that they will go crazy.

Who knows how many lives this scum has ruined already.

12. From January Anchorage Daily News: Palin's Responses on Radio Talk Show Very Unbecoming

Palin's responses on radio talk show very unbecoming
DAN FAGAN

The governor's appearance on KWHL's "The Bob and Mark Show" last week is plain and simple one of the most unprofessional, childish and inexcusable performances I've ever seen from a politician.

Anchorage DJ Bob Lester unleashed a vicious, mean-spirited, poisonous attack on Senate President Lyda Green last week while our governor was live on the air with him.

When we played the tape on my show the day after it happened, we received 130 calls. Even some Palinbots were disgusted.

The Daily News posted the recording on its Web site and it fired up bloggers.

The Fairbanks Daily News-Miner editorial writers demanded the governor apologize. The Juneau and Ketchikan papers also ran the editorial.

The Daily News opinion page addressed the governor's gaffe. They wrote "She came off looking immature herself, almost high-schoolish. It was conduct unbecoming a governor."

It was conduct unbecoming a human being, never mind a governor.

The governor's office eventually tried to spin the public relations disaster, releasing a statement reading, "Governor Palin was caught off guard by Bob Lester's reference to Senate President Lyda Green."

I don't buy it. Early on in the conversation before Palin started to crack up, Lester referred to Sen. Green as a jealous woman and a cancer. Palin, who knows full well Lyda Green is a cancer survivor, didn't do what any decent person would do, say, "Bob, that's going too far."

But as the conversation moved on, Lester intensified his attack on Green.

Lester questioned Green's motherhood, asking Palin if the senator cares about her own kids. Palin laughs.

Then Lester clearly sets the stage for what he is about to say by warning his large audience and Palin. He says, "Governor you can't say this but I will, Lyda Green is a cancer and a b----." Palin laughs for the second time.

What were teenage boys thinking when they heard the governor laugh at someone being called a b----? How about the teenage girls who look up to Palin. What did they think when they heard her laugh?

But there is more. Lester then describes Green's chair as big and cushy. A clear reference to the senator's weight. Palin laughs a third time. She's just having a grand old time.

Palin was clearly enjoying every second of Lester's vicious attack on her political rival.

But it gets worse.

23. Does she always do this giggling thing?
I've heard that in several of her appearances. Maybe that kind of thing is appropriate in Alaska, but on the bigger stage, schoolgirl giggling just makes it seem like she doesn't have anything intelligent to say.

In this instance, I would have thought her good Christian values would have led her to say, "Come on guys, I have substantial differences with her ideas, but let's not turn this into a personal thing."

16. Disgusting. And absolutely terrifying.
Edited on Sun Aug-31-08 06:51 AM by antfarm
That was a situation calling not for advanced political skills, but BASIC, kindergarten-level political skills. Even the president of a student council doesn't sit there while something like that is said without correcting it.

This clip, as much as anything else I have seen so far, drives home that this is NOT the person we need representing us in life and death matters around the world. My god, what are they doing?????????????

17. Is this post in the GD: P Forum?
I don't usually go to the video forum, so I almost missed this. This clip is SCATHING, not only in showing Palin to be a nasty person, but MORE IMPORTANTLY IN SHOWING HER TERRIBLE JUDGMENT AND ABSOLUTE LACK OF POLITICAL SKILLS AND ABILITY TO THINK ON HER FEET.

Can you imagine this woman in negotiations with Iran??????????????

This video must be spread far and wide. This is terrifying.

21. "We'd be honored to have you guys"

Palin would be HONORED to have a pair of hate-mongering idiots attend her state-of-the-state speech.
pathetic & revealing audio clip.
