I think Palin said "nookyular" on purpose

[Rocknrule]

It was a subtle "shout out" to Bush voters, saying "Hey, you want a candidate who you can relate to because they have a room temperature I.Q.? Well, I'm one of them!"

Stupidity is a virtue to Republicans these days.

1. Amen to that! n/t

2. I agree.

Nothing bothers me more than the smug ignorance of the majority of the rEpubliCons.

3. True dat

4. The dumbing-down of America. Gore Vidal was just on Air America

and he talked about it. Chomsky mentioned the "guy you'd like to have a beer with" persona pushed by the PR media machine of the Rethugs.

5. Yep, I thought that the first time I heard it.

6. We live in an Idiocracy. I wouldn't put it past her handlers

I don't think SHE has the wit or wisdom to do ANYTHING like that on her own, but there are advisers of hers who would consider that a solid strategery.

7. Don't 'cha know! N/T

8. They think "Nuclear" sounds "Gay"

Whereas "Nuke" is something you do to pizza and commies.

9. She sounded a lot like bu$h most of the debate...

See this thread by tpsbmam posted yesterday.

It is freaky how the two are interchangeable.

10. I thought so too,

she almost said it correctly a couple of times though, but caught herself.

11. Jimmy Carter pronouces it exactly the same way.

I don't think he is stupid.

[VeggieTart]

12. And what was up with her winking?

Dear Gaia, does the woman not know how to act or compete in national politics, or did she just overdo the folksy act her handlers told her to put on?

[live love laugh]

13. I think you are right. n/t

[petronius]

14. I agree - I thought she said it corrrectly the first time, then caught herself (nt)
