Palin: The "lamestream media has dug further into O'Donnell's past than Barack Hussein Obama's"

[jefferson_dem]

Just now, with Greta on Faux News. Sure, she was just trying to be descriptive. Nothing nefarious. What the fuck is her middle name, anyway?

Oh, look what happened back in 2008. Things change...eh.

Lee County Sheriff Mike Scott took the stage moments ago as one of the introductory speakers at a rally here for Sarah Palin. After delivering brief remarks in support of Palin, Sheriff Scott flipped the switch and used Barack Obama's middle name in order to incite the crowd of thousands of people who have already gathered here.

"On Nov. 4, let's leave Barack Hussein Obama wondering what happened," the law enforcement officer said.

UPDATE: Palin campaign spokesperson Tracey Schmitt issued the following statement on Sherriff Scott's remarks: "We do not condone this inappropriate rhetoric which distracts from the real questions of judgment, character, and experience that voters will base their decisions on this November."

1. The day I will be most happy is when no one cares about shit that

Palin has to say.

On that day, I will feel satisfied with just about everything....
for a time, anyways.

[jesus_of_suburbia]

3. I think she hurts Repubs more than helps.

.... but I agree that it would be a great day if nobody cared about what she had to say. Sadly, I just don't see that happening in our lives.


Her harm for us is that she excites the fringe on the right. However, she turns off independents (who are important for elections). That is good for us. It's a balancing act.

[Diamonique]

11. Me too. I am SO sick of this idiot.

If only the media would stop fawning over her every word. That's all it would take for her to disappear.. forever.

[CakeGrrl]

2. Again, I wonder who in their right mind wants to see this

race-baiting idiot ascend to the Republican nomination? Nothing good can come of giving this grifter any more attention.

[craigmatic]

4. Would it kill her to say President Barack Hussein Obama every once in a while?

[zulchzulu]

5. Sarah's middle name is Quitter n/t

[rocktivity]

6. They had to do more digging. O'Donnel shitpile was bigger.

And by the way, have they dug up anything that isn't true?

:headbang:

[Kdillard]

7. She needs to find a different tune.

[Thrill]

8. Still trying to play the experience card? LOL

[Arkana]

9. Burn in hell, Sarah.

There's a special spot reserved for you next to Brutus and Judas Iscariot.

[LynneSin]

10. Same media has no problem bringing up a damn paper that Coons wrote in college

Let's see what I'm more worried about, some kid who wrote a paper called "The Bearded Marxist" while in college 20 years ago or some woman who fraudulently spends her campaign funs to go bowling and pay her rent in 2009?

[Monk06]

12. Man are these pricks going to be mad in Nov when the bagger balloon goes boom N?T

[Vinca]

13. I think we should adopt Palin's "lamestream media" schtick.

It would drive her nuts to know professional lefties were using the term.

[bigdarryl]

14. Shut your RACIST ASS up

[flpoljunkie]

15. Damn you, John McCain, for enabling this dangerous idiot!

[COLGATE4]

16. Watching Sarah is like watching a monkey in a cage

fling shit at anyone looking at it.

[lunatica]

17. I wish the lamestream media would stop covering her

FOX has a viewership of what? 1.8 million? That's not even as big as the Teabagger Party is it? And that covers all the businesses and establishments that run FOXNews without anyone watching.

Mediocrity rules in Idiocracy.

[theothersnippywshrub]

18. O'Donnell has committed more crimes. n/t

[otohara]

19. Bullshit Headline

I'm no fan of the quitter, but let's not outright lie here.

[jefferson_dem]

20. Bullshit yourself.

Here - http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2010/09/23/palin-calls-obama-barack-hussein/

Next time, you should consult reality before calling one a liar.

[otohara]

22. Then Post The Correct Link

not some old 2008 link and I did do a search and this was the result

:http://www.google.com/search?q=%22lamestream+media+has+dug+further+into+O%27Donnell%27s+past+than+Barack+Hussein+Obama%27s%22&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&client=firefox-a&rlz=1R1GGGL_en

[jefferson_dem]

24. What the hell is wrong with you? Can you even read?

Look...I'll explain this for you, nice and easy. Mmmm K.

I posted this OP last night after I heard her say those words. Now other media outlets are reporting it. The link in the OP is to the 2008 story where she condemned using "Hussein". It was meant to point out the flip flop.

Now, I encourage you to stop digging... while you still can.

[otohara]

27. The Only Digging I've Been Doing

searching for a link to a story that said this: "lamestream media has dug further into O'Donnell's past than Barack Hussein Obama's"

You saw the results of that search and they were all on DU.

But now that CNN has a story up, then FUCK that racist, bigoted, bimbo, quitter.

[kentuck]

21. I have a hunch...

that the lame-stream media has not dug deep enough into the Palin character.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

23. I Will Violate Godwin's Law

She's Hitler in a dress. But at least he wrote his own autobiography.

[KingFlorez]

25. She is such a dirty piece of work

If one were to dig into her past thoroughly, there would likely be a lot to find.

[Phx_Dem]

26. The media hasn't dug into O'Donnell AT ALL. Bill Mahr released

old videos of from his show. That's it. I'd hardly call that media research.

Once again, Palin proves her unbelievable level of ignorance for anyone who doubted it.

28. Yeah, because digging around for a "real" birth certificate and

harassing Obama's aunt over immigration issues and trying to link him to a former pastor at a church he used to attend isn't digging into his past at all.
