2. The turkey interview is a gift that just keeps on giving, isn't it? n/t

7. I keep seeing this "turkey" thing mentioned, but I guess I missed it.
I was in Mexico the week before (and including) Thanksgiving.

What was it?

9. As governor of AK, Palin "pardoned" a turkey
at a turkey farm, and then did an interview -- with a man slaughtering turkeys in the background. At one point, she even looked over at him, and kept on jabbering.

15. That's our Sarah.
I'm going to try to find it on YouTube.

Oh, God, I found it.

God.....

I have neither depth, width, or grasp of vocabulary to express my thoughts on this one.

Sorry you had to share our pain on this one, but now you know...

14. The source photo:


In this image rendered from video and provided by KARE-TV Minneapolis, Alaska Gov. Gov. Sarah Palin speaks during an interview, Thursday, Nov. 20, 2008, at Triple D Farm & Hatchery outside Wasilla, Alaska. As Palin answered questions cameras from the Anchorage Daily News and others showed the bloody work of an employee, right, slaughtering birds behind the former Republican vice presidential candidate. (AP Photo/KARE-TV)

3. It pisses me off that she's wearing that scarf. I love Burberry.
She's defiling the brand.

43. Stolen from the Republican National Party during her recent shopping spree, no doubt.
I guess Sarah missed that scarf when she was desperately searching her closets for contraband to return.

6. K&R. Dear God, why is she still here?!!!
She refused to give many interviews before the election, and the ones she did do were abysmal and embarrassing ("In what regard, Charlie?" :eyes:), but now we can't seem to get rid of her... I agree with Bill Maher, "Just go away!!!"x(

8. She is never going away. Like Barack's "birth certificate," she is with us for all time.
There is no end to Sarah Palin. Ever. She will do anything for attention.

It's like a Biblical challenge to us to persevere in the face of all things Palin.

26. She didn't refuse, her handlers refused to let her
Now, she's her own handler and well, now we can see the wisdom of her former handlers. We get to see mentally challenged Sarah in all her glory.

30. I agree that her handlers were wise to keep her under wraps.
Any interviews she did were great material for SNL. But I thought she was going back to Alaska. And, hopefully, staying there...x(

32. I wish I could agree with you but I can't
I hate the sound of her voice but she is the gift that keeps on giving. I would like it if she would go back until around 2010, but when voting time comes around, I want people to remember that she is the future of the Republican party, heh-heh-heh. She is the anchor that will finally sink them. Eventually we have to let the Titanic out of Alaska, ya know? You betcha!

45. What a wimpy little chainsaw
Poulans suck. I bought one and the engine blew in about five minutes. I took it back to the store and they tossed it on a pile of rejects in the back.
