There's a concerted effort to keep this dumb-ass in the spotlight....
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/deadlineusa/2008/nov/11/sarah-palin

The neo-cons picked this bat-shit crazy moron to be their puppet. When will the knuckledraggers who vote for these loons realize their religion is being used to dupe them into voting for clowns who don't give a shit about them?

1. Matt Lauer has been whoring for her this morning on The Today Show..he
went to Alaska to "rehabilitate" her.

4. Call me crazy....
But I think it all comes down to the power of Israel to influence American politics.

She was the Neo-con's selection for John McCain. The Neo-cons are Israel's henchmen in America.

8. I think she was the Neocon's selection because like Shrub and his lack of intellect, she
is malleable.

As to Israel, they have nothing to worry about.

9. Exactly. She's an empty vessel that can be manipulated.

29. You'll be called a lot worse than crazy for that.
This has less than nothing to do with Israel.

10. That was a disgusting interview. Lauer painted the Klan rally leader as an object of pity.
Great job Matt, painting Palin as the victim rather than the person whose incitement of hatred against Obama led to a steep uptick in death threats against the Obama family.

13. When will we ever learn?
It's the job of these scumbags like Matt Lauer to keep controversy alive where there isn't any. To which the knuckledragging - waiting for the rapture - types view as legitimate news stories.

Delivering "news" to any sane or intelligent viewer isn't on their agenda.

14. So far, he has not uttered one word about that to her and my guess is he won't.
His job is to keep her a viable candidate for 2012.

I don't think people here on DU understand the power of The Today Show. It is often poo pooed, but it is the most viewed morning show on air.

18. This is the one "sacrifice" I make. It does give you a feel about what is being "fed"
to America. I mentioned before. This is the highest rated morning "news" show in the country.

22. You're tough...
I've already had 2 heart attacks and a stroke and the GOP inspired toadies on the Toady show kind of raise my BP to the redline. You can report back to us older folk if you don't mind, but let that hammer down easy.

2. The only doors I want her to see
1. The exit door to her political career
2. Either a jail cell or a padded room door.

6. No, there's a concerted effort for La Palin to keep herself in the spotlight
I've never seen a bigger attention whore in my life. The neo-cons will not be able to control little Miss Meglomania.

17. oh but5 she is. And she's already whored herself out to the local media there bigtime
she's ambitious enough in her own right to do all of this. I don't think DUers are aware of how heavily she lobbied to be McCain's running mate.

19. She was selected by William Kristol and the Neo-cons.
She doesn't have the power you claim she has. The corporate media is keeping her alive as a viable candidate for 2012.

The fact that she was so soundly rejected doesn't seem to bother the corporate media because they see potential in the fact that A. She's a woman B. A religious zealot C. A right-wing republican. D. A whore for power.

All of which that can be manipulated to further AIPAC's influence...

21. only in the sense that McCain was informed by those people and others
that he couldn't/shouldn't pick traitor joe.

You haven't provided a shred of evidence for your silly little CT.

And I do wish you CTers would be just a tad more original. It's such a bore that you recycle the same shit.

26. as, did I hurt your wittle feelings by laughing at you?
as that article notes, Palin was the one that first reached out to conservative insiders. she courted them every bit as much as they courted her. It's what's known as a symbiotic relationship. Of course they want to use her- and she wants to use them. Fairly common political dynamic, dearie. It's repuke simplistic to go the whole she's just a puppet routine. Same thing as the idiot morans claiming Obama is just a puppet.

27. Not at all...
I'll give you the fact that she is a political animal. She's also willing to carry water for the neo-cons.

11. I have to disagree. Last week on Today and also Mika on Morning Joe were both trying
to defend her and shut her detractors.

Today Lauer has a multi-part interview, where he went to Alaska to interview her, to continue her rehabilitation. This includes Palin cooking dinner. :puke:

They didn't have to send this news crew with Lauer there, but they did.

I used to want to go to Alaska.

28. in three years, she'll look so-o-o-o-o bad compared to Obama . . .
that it won't be worth her while to mount a campaign of any kind . . . by then, people will be used to an intelligent, informed, and articulate president, and they won't want to go back to the BushCo stone age . . .
