The mockery thrown at her direction is well deserved by every word of hers.

Stupidity is the biggest of all threats. A malicious person can be driven awayby showing him/her a deterrant. A uncapable person can be halted by countering him/her and revealing his/hers inability. But a stupid perso0n: doe snot listen, is too dump to be afraid, needs no argument, and always ends any attempt to confront him/her by saying "I believe this, I believe that." It is completely useless to debate with such a person, and the onyl way to stop him/her is by crushing him/her. People can be stupid, although they have learned a lot of stuff. And poorly educated people still can be anything but stupid. Education sometimes correlates with intelligence, but it must not be like that always. With stupid persons, no argument and no manners and no procedures count, the only thing that counts is that you stop them while there is still time.

Palin once said in a sideremark she likes goldfishes. I personally would introduce Palin to that four meter long, wide-grinning white "goldfish" in the aquarium over there. Telling her that her feeding the "goldfish" would make some nice pictures for the media, should be enough to convince her.

And it even would not be a lie.

Considering what level she stopped to I would Say Sarah

Well then sir, why does Palin command the media and public attention like she does? She likes goldfishes? Interesting how this remark makes the news and you remember this remark. How stupid is she when something as simple as this is said in passing is plastered on the internet. This statement is remembered by you. She commands an audience wherever she goes. She commands her own thread here at SS. Is she really a dope as eveyone likes to throw her way? For some reason people stop and listen even if she is talking about goldfish. :hmmm:

Because McCain chose her as his running mate in a futile attempt to court more female voters. I'm also told she's physically attractive.

She's stupider than Dubya, and that's saying something.

McCain only introduced Palin to the world. She took the reigns after that. She resigned as govenor for AK because she has more of a world stage doing what she does now. She is ask to attend these functions for tea party people and the like. She is influential and does command the media/peoples attention. Why is this? As far as physical, she is not going to break into a strip tease anytime soon. If that is what the world is waiting for there will be much disappointment.

I keep hearing this chant from the left but frankly when I listen to her speak she doesent come off as stupid.

I think the lib's are doing their best to paint her as stupid and likely even believe that. Yet she continues to be a powerful political force even after leaving office. That doesent sound too stupid to me.

Cant wait till November :salute:

I don't see what there is to like. McCain made a very bad mistake with her that cost him the election. She is political poison from any side.

I dont think Ms Palin cost him the election honestly not that she helped any but I dont think he stood a chance against the 'hope and change' media blitz and the overwhelming desire to place a black man in the oval office.

I the movie I saw of her she did that and more... :O:

No, McCain was outclassed by Obama's team. Obama was groomed years in advance. His team learned to use the internet to reach a particular crowd. He was able to identify with the voters. He made 'shivers' go up peoples legs. McCain was left to wallow in his old school mentality. In short, no matter who McCain selected as a running mate he was doomed.

I did not see this movie. :har:

A fool and his money are soon parted.

This is the kind of garbage opinion that those on the right love to fart out at every opportunity. "He won because he was black" doesn't hold water given the black candidates over the years - Sharpton, Jackson, Chisolm, Keyes namely. By your poorly thought out rationale, they should have all been president.

The better man won. Get over it. Stop blaming race.

Yea about that money.

Jackson... :D thats hilarious...

Like it or not the mans race was a major factor not to me but to the electorate at large. They were 'motivated'.

I agree here. McCain was outclassed and out manuevered. Obama offered up a change in direction. Palin had very little to do with losing the seat for McCain. He was doomed from the word go.

As I see it, she does not command the media, AVG. The media stalk on her because it is a given that sooner or later she produces another laugh at her own cost that will make the nation(s) laughing.

And the goldfish remark I only remember because it was one of the most intellectual remarks she ever made. I always try to see the best in people.
