Two questions:

1) Why are people laughing about this when Obama can't tell his daughters a bed-time story without teleprompters?

2) The most important question: Why are people still talking about Sarah Palin and the Tea Partyers like they actually matter? They're a bunch of crazy, racist rednecks...who cares what they do or say? They matter in politics as much as the KKK does...zilch.

Seriously...every single news item I've seen that mentions Sarah Palin or the birthers/tea party idiots I've skipped right over.

While I've cracked jokes that Palin can/might be elected, the only reason it a possibility and the only reason that it would ever come about is because people KEEP her in the news...like she's relevant to anything besides birthing a retard.

Oh come on, you do realise there's a difference between using teleprompters or autocue or whatever it's called and scribbling notes on the palm of your hand as if it's a seventh graders math test.

I assume you're referring to news sites here rather than individuals on this forum, right?

There are a lot of idiots out there that actually support these fucking morons and the Republicans are more than willing to embrace them.

The reason I don't think there's much difference is because both Obama and Palin are trying to ensure that they're (in some way) prepared to regurgitate what they're supposed to say to their audiences correctly. Don't get me wrong, there is no comparison in their intellect as Obama clearly doesn't need the teleprompters in a real debate, but as it relates to a speech, they're basically doing the same thing.

Right. <3

However, due to the fact that everyone keeps talking about Palin and her bullshit (everyone from MSM, Fox News, MSNBC and even The Daily Show) and even though I skip the news stories about her, I'm still well aware of all the bullshit that involves her...which was my whole point entirely about her getting too much press.

I was seriously hoping she'd go away after her book tour but that simply won't happen now that she's on Fox's payroll. Now she'll stay "relevant" well past the 2012 elections...perhaps for the next decade if she puts out another book...and I fully blame all the idiots in the world who can't stop writing articles (or talking on TV) about her. She's a bigger attention whore than Oprah.

I truly wish she'd eat one of her guns while sitting on her porch waving to Russia, but I doubt even that would shut her up permanently...as people would continue talking about her the same way they STILL talk about Reagan.

My point exactly. Why legitimize the retards?

Once people stopped believing the KKK had actual power the Klan went back to lynching privately and everyone (almost) forgot about them. Sure...some black people kept dying (because racists will always be racists) but the Klan no longer had a national public voice like Strom Thurmond to make them feel more important than they actually are.

Once they realize (again) that nobody gives a fuck about their opinions on how to run a country, the tea-baggers will go back to hating government (and everyone else) in private. [EDIT] And as an added bonus, when these people get disenfranchised, they stop voting...which means less of a chance of morons like Palin getting elected.

Just like when people stop talking about Micheal Jackson or Brittany Spears...the world is a slightly better place.

I can't agree that it's the same thing. There's a certain difference in the level of professionalism here. It just looks really moronic when you're using notes written on your hand, especially when you want to be taken seriously as a politician. I don't know if Obama ever really tried to cover up the fact that he used teleprompters, but sneaking notes on your hand clearly is an effort to keep it hidden.
Also, in the video U4EA posted you can see she glances at her hand during an interview. That's not a speech.

not to mention, you need a teleprompter because there is an entire speech there...the fact that she can't handle memorizing as much as a phrase, and had to resort to writing on her palm, is what blows the mind.

Oh jesus christ.

Exactly who's ass was your head shoved up during the last election for you to not notice that it didn't make any difference at all with the people who will vote Republican on how "unprofessional" or "non-serious a politician" (or even dishonest) Sarah Palin is/was/will-always-be?

FFS...proving that Palin couldn't see Russia from her house and pointing out that she QUIT HER EXISTING POLITICAL JOB couldn't dissuade her supporters from wanting to vote for her.

We all know Palin is an idiot. What the fuck else is new? But her fans DO NOT CARE that she looked at her hands. You clearly have no idea just how fucked up, upside down and backwards American politicking is as a recent poll of right-wing nutters said THEY STILL THINK PALIN IS MORE QUALIFIED THAN OBAMA TO BE PRESIDENT.

Seriously...just drop it already.

Of course it blows the mind. But what you are forgetting is that she could have fucking phoned it in (with a static picture of her on a screen) and people still would love her. :rolleyes:

lol...a friend of mine simply could NOT shut up about Micheal Jackson when he died...about how he was "a wonderful person" and all that other crap. All I said about Micheal Jackson (over and over) was "you're fawning over a known child molester" and "Micheal Jackson fiddled little boys" and that "Micheal Jackson hung his infant son out a window in Germany just to get his photo taken".

Yes...my friend got pissed at me. :olo:

Don't blame the public, blame the press. Palin is a story precisely because she is a moron, everything she does is an easy score for a journalist. As long as she keeps making remarks drenched in stupidity there's not a reporter who'll ignore her. It's just too easy: she charms the stupid and infuriates the smart, so people will read/watch anything about her.

Doesn't help that now she has Fox backing, ie tons of money to spend on whateverthefuck she wants and free media attention on the channel that targets her core audience.

Yeah... she won't go away anytime soon.
