Sarah Palin lashes out against the leaks by McCain aides that she is 'profoundly ignorant' on basic issues and geography.

McCain aides anonymously told the press that Palin did not know that Africa is a continent or what countries are included in NAFTA.

1. What great good fun.
I do love her constant use of "sexist".A real Andrea Dworkin, she is.

2. Lol! I know...

I admit, I'm enjoying watching the McCain campaign continue to implode.

How funny she says in one breath that these aides are "unprofessional" and then name calls them "jerks."

5. And she's still dragging Obama into the mix, talking about his makeup. What the heck does he
have to do with this?

Did she even call him President Elect?

12. Exactly. She is still lying about Obama
saying he would "unilaterally re-negotiate NAFTA." WTF does that mean? "Unilaterally re-negotiate?" Somewhat of an oxymoron, eh?

Moreover, it's not an accurate statement of his position on NAFTA.

23. If he unilaterally
shitcanned NAFTA he would guarantee my vote in 2012 (not that there is any chance of him not getting it)

22. she needs to stifle the "sexist" talk...
when you act like a bimbo and flirt, you get treated like one. Damn, I can't believe the GOP thought they could lure Hillary voters with this.

3. Don't blame Sarah...you chose her.
People wanted Obama that's all there is to it. While I enjoyed poking fun at her like many on DU, the fact is...it's not her 100% fault McCain lost.

"Boo hoo...Eve made me do it. She forced me to eat the forbidden fruit. Boo hoo hoo, now I'm cast out of the Garden and can't hang out with Bambi and stuff."

6. The only thing she asked for is a diet dr. pepper? What kind of a talking point is that.
I have actually heard that statement a few times. There must be a list of talking points on how to defend this dolt. I am so happy that these clowns did not make it in to office. The pain of listening to her for 4 years is unimaginable. Just listening to her for a few sentences gives me flashbacks to how I felt prior to the election.

4. "Me not be a dictator".
That's what she said! It's going to be so much fun listening to her talk without the McCain filter!

8. I guess Sarah doesn't like the view from underneath the bus
Not that she doesn't deserve to be there, she deserves it more than anyone. Why would anyone think the McCain camp would continue to be quiet after it's all over? Sing like a bird guys, we don't want anyone to forget how Palin was and I definitely don't want to see her face again in 4 years.

9. Uhhh, did she just say, "Africa: the country versus the continent"?
There is no country of Africa. There is a country called SOUTH AFRICA. "Africa" is a continent, period.

She still hasn't learned this, even after it has been in the news for 48 hours.

32. lol! I didn't see your post! I caught the same thing!!! lol!!!
She thinks there is a country called Africa! And I'm sorry but anyone of her age with minimal knowledge would know that South Africa is never called Africa.

:rofl:

Bill Maher pegged it last night. I'm paraphrasing..it could be chalked up to just ignorance, but when you're in your 40s and you don't this, you are just plain stupid.

11. I'm tired of the 'sexist' shit from her
Perhaps if she didn't try and use her 'sexiness' to win points I'd be a bit more compassionate.

The winking etc.. takes that point completely off the table.

Palin - you are being criticized because you are a narcissistic, greedy, power hungry bafoon with a lack of basic knowledge a 6th grader would know about the world.

Nothing more nothing less.

14. Peole who point at their mouths while lying are subconciously telling you "I'm Lying".
But in Palin's case, just having her mouth open tells you that. She couldn't admit it was true no matter what because it would be too embarrassing...like a Doctor telling you babies come from storks

18. The allegations are "cruel, meanspirited, immature..."
But it's just okie-dokie when she's the one doing the alleging.

Can she just go away now?

19. "we talked about Alaska's relationship with Canada"...

"and we just don't go in there and re-negotiate.." Her usual muddled thinking and way of speaking. It almost sounds

like she thinks Alaska is a country, but no, she couldn't be thinking that, subconsciously, could she. Wouldn't it be

hilarious if the interviewer asked her right there on the spot, so which countries ARE part of NAFTA and what does

NAFTA stand for and she forgot already. It would not be surprising at all.

29. AND she thinks she knew who leaked because...
she apparently only had one conversation about NAFTA while running for VP. At least that's how it sounded to me.

27. Slimy snarky sociopathic bitch.
In the next update of Webster's Dictionary, I understand they will be printing her picture under the entry for the word "kunt".

This pretty much confirms that rumor I heard.

RAW

31. She still thinks that there is a country named Africa. She says so on this clip!
Edited on Sat Nov-08-08 02:24 PM by OmmmSweetOmmm
She said that if there were any comments or questions she had on Africa during the debate prep, the continent vs the country...

:rofl:
