"Lie low. There's no need to inject yourself into the story."

-- Fox News chairman Roger Ailes, quoted by New York magazine, advising Sarah Palin to stay quiet after the Tuscon shootings. Palin ignored the advice and made her "blood libel" statement.

1. She's crazy... batshit crazy...

you would think she'd have enough sense to listen to Ailes, who is, along with being a spawn of Satan, pretty damn politically/media savvy.

Thankfully she's a loose cannon, and winds up shooting herself in the foot once again. The amazing thing is that she's popular enough among the rightwingnutjobs who control the primaries to win the GOP nomination. I'd still say she's a bit of a longshot, but she could win the nomination. The general election, OTOH, she'd be lucky to garner 40% of the vote (which is still unsettling, knowing that 40% of the country is as crazy as her... yikes!)

2. Yeah...let's give HER access to "the button"!

3. She's ALL YOURS, roger. You helped make this female Frankenstein.

And the rest of us all thank you wholeheartedly, I'm sure.

4. Prez of a news channel giving political advice

I guess it's no surprise to DU regulars, but the president of an alleged news outlet giving political advice to a national political figure? Lie low, lie high.

5. Her hidiousness listens to nobody........

Instead of heeding the good advice, she spews her angry "I was blood libeled" speech.

I think even FAUX noise has had it with her - O'Reilly was openly fed up with her last week.
Tomorrow, Palin goes on 'FOX Business Channel" to be interviewed by Lou Dobbs (Dobbs has new show, and Palin is his first guest).

Dobbs has openly said he would not vote for Palin.

"When it came to Sarah Palin, Dobbs said, “Would I consider voting her? Frankly based on what I have seen, personally no.”

6. Looks like she went all Roguey again

There is absolutely nothing that will shut this woman's pie hole. And what's this "no need to inject yourself into the story" crap. Her infamous crosshairs WERE part of the story.

7. He apparently holds her

somewhat responsible for the shooting. Why else would he have advised her to lie low?

8. They are all a bunch of shallow, evil, transparent phonies.

The ultimate losers.
