Sarah Palin Defends Crib Notes On Her Hand - God Did It, Why Can't I?

Sarah Palin defends writing notes on her hand - God did it, why can't I?

BY MICHAEL SHERIDAN
DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER

Sarah Palin has offered up a new excuse for using her hand to scribble crib notes – God did it, too.

The former Alaskan governor was speaking at an Ohio Right to Life fund-raiser last week when she addressed the palm-writing incident that occurred at a Tea Party convention last month and earned her so much media mockery.

"I didn't (at the time) have a good answer to that criticism because I thought it was so ridiculous," Palin told the nearly 3,000 people at the event.

But now the 46-year-old GOP star has her response: "If it was good enough for God, scribbling on the palm of his hand, it's good enough for me," Palin said to cheers from the crowd, who laughed along with her.

She cited a line from the Bible as part of her remarks, which she said a supporter had sent her.

The passage, Isaiah 49:16, says, "See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands."

2. Sarah is comparing
herself to God?!?!? How Messianic of her. she sure does have an overblown sense of self importance and of her place in the universe.

I watched that clip and it was embarrassing how cutesy-pie she acts - all giggly and silly. Reminds me of someone in junior high.

9. I would love to see Jon Stewart get Bible Spice on the Daily Show
and as she is introduced walking out on stage, they play that U-tube Looney Toons clip. It would be too hilarious, thus probably won't happen.

8. Makes absolutley no sense for a god to write notes on its hand.
If a god needed to write notes on its hand then its not a god.

Isaiah was probably on drugs prevalent during that time period.

13. ... to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead...
"He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name. This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number. His number is 666" (Rev. 13:16-18).

19. So god wrote on his hand "Create the Sun" and "Rest on the 7th" on his hand?
Edited on Mon Mar-08-10 04:31 PM by walldude
Because if I remember correctly what Barbie had written on her hand was "lower taxes" and energy independence".

So what Sarah Palin is saying is, God is a complete fucking idiot who couldn't remember the two most important things he had to do that week? :rofl:
