Sarah Palin Caught On Video Reading Talking Points Written On Palm Of Her Hand During Interview

Sarah Palin caught reading notes from her palm sans teleprompterThe Big Question: Were Those Sarah’s Or Her Hubby The Former “First Dood’s” Taloking Points She Was Reading?

Okay, we’ve all done it — jotted down reminders on the palms of our hands for future reference. Some have even used a pen and the palm of their hand to cheat on tests (I’ve never done that and I’m stickin’ TO it). Apparently, Sarah “The Barracuda” Palin uses a pen and the palm of her hand in order to remember her “all-powerful, former First Dood hubby“, Todd Palin’s talking points in order to make a semi-coherent speech at a friendly Teabagger Tea Party convention according to CBS News and a few other mainstream media (MSM) outlets (MemeOrandum):

Palin Hand Crib Notes Attract Scrutiny

Posted by David S Morgan

Former Alaska governor and Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin’s appearance before the National Tea Party Convention in Nashville Saturday night gave plenty of red meat to the attendees, such as calling President Obama “a charismatic guy with a Teleprompter.”

The thousand-plus Tea Party attendees who paid $300 to hear her speak (Palin was paid $100,000 for her appearance) probably did not glimpse Palin’s own handy Teleprompter — crib notes written on her left hand.

She could be seen glancing at them during her Q&A with Tea Party Nation founder Judson Phillips when asked what were the top three things a Conservative majority in Congress should do. …” – CBS’ Political Hotsheet Blog

See, like I said earlier — most of us have used the ole’ palm reading trick. I’d leave Sarah Palin alone on this topic weren’t for the fact she oftentimes and GLEEFULLY gives President Barack Hussein Obama a VERY hard time for using a teleprompter (YouTube — Fox News’ Chris Wallace interviews “The Barracuda”). This makes her a hypocrite, of course — as am I, however; I do not try to hide that fact. Sorry, Sarah — you deserved this one…

The GTL™ Sunday Guest Column — “Bottoms Up!” By Christopher L. Doster

Gun Toting Liberal Sunday guest columnist and author Christopher L. Doster uses humor wit sarcasm And Conservative Sense Of Humor To Touch Upon Some Current Events And Foreign Policy Under The Obama Administration...GTL™ Sunday Guest Columnist: Author And “Moderately-Right-Of-Center” Political Pundit, Christopher L. Doster, Employs His Wit, Sarcasm And Conservative Sense Of Humor To Touch Upon Some Current Events, Foreign Policy Under The Obama Administration And His Self-Prescribed Antidote…

“Bottoms Up!”

“My advice is to start drinking heavily. You should listen to him, he’s pre-med!” – Animal House, 1978 – Bluto & Otter

You know, as yet another birthday has come and gone (Jan. 30 for all you belated buddies), I can’t help but remember the great lines from my younger years. Bluto and Otter may have just been characters in a classic movie (YouTube), but lately it seems that they made more sense than anyone in this current day and age.

This is particularly true for me when it comes to politics, and this recent attempt to “fundamentally transform America” (YouTube) I’m not so sure that the “educated” masses are paying attention, but that “hope and change” ya’ll voted for with so much disdain for Mr. Bush, has much of the country going “bottoms up”. That’s about the only thing that seems to numb the senses from the senselessness, as America edges closer and closer to a literal banana republic. But hey, like the college kids here at good ole U.S.A. (University of South Alabama) proclaim, “at least the rest of the world likes us now”. How comforting, dictators like Hugo Chavez think Obama is “cool” (The Insider), well God bless us all and let’s have another cerveza!

My most recent excuse to pop open another Coors Original comes from a “really good friend of mine” Glenn Beck (at least I wish he was, Lenny)…

“This isn’t education. This isn’t about the American process. This isn’t about civics. This is about Barack Obama and idol worship.” – Glenn Beck

Ok, so what is Glenn ranting about this time (sip, sip, swig, gulp)? No, it’s not Saul Alinsky or crying on the set, it’s about the “O.F.A.” and our children. You know, the O.F.A.? Come on folks, where have you been, watching American Idol or waiting for the “Who Dat” Bowl (A GTL™ YouTube Original)?

“Organizing for America” (OFA) is a “grass roots” program (BarackObama.Com) sponsored by the Democratic National Committee (DNC). Imagine that, like Acorn for bored housewives or those “intellectuals” with too much time on their hands. Oh, but if that’s not enough to drive you to drink, they are recruiting children, and offering “internships”. How sweet, instead of “midnight basketball” (am I showing my age again?) from the golden age of Clinton, we now have “OFA training” for all those future little Marxists. And you thought only those “rich fat cat” Republicans and “tea baggers” were fascists’, well not so fast my friends…

“Buckle up, gang. This one’s going to be bumpy. From BarackObama.com. This isn’t some crazy website. This isn’t some disassociated website. BarackObama.Com. Organizing for America. Now we’re organizing your children.” – Glenn Beck

Quoting one of the “regional OFA field directors”…

“The mission of OFA is to organize the grass roots, build the grass roots, to move forward in a way that promotes the President’s agenda” – OFA (YouTube)

An “Ozombie-like” female further explains that the organization is built from “the bottom up”. Yea, I got a “bottoms up” for ya’ honey, and it has nothing to do with “community organizing”….cheers. — This Sunday Column was penned by the one and only CLD

Was Todd “First Dood” Palin The REAL Governor Of Alaska While Sarah Cooked And Cleaned For Him?

Todd Palin Emails Show The “First Dood” Might Have Actually Run The State Of Alaska While Sarah “The Barracuda” Cheered Him On…

Palin emails from alaska governor reveal Todd first dood Palin was perhaps as if not more powerful in Alaska government than his wife Sarah Palin

REAL Alaska Governor Todd, The First Dood Palin Signs A Bill Into Law As His Assistant Sarah, The Barracuda Palin Cheers Him On...

With the Tea Party Convention in full-swing behind the powerful presence of the lovely Mrs. Sarah Palin as their keynote speaker (The NYT) and undeclared “Teabagger Diety”, one must wonder who REALLY is the “voice” and “deity” of the moment now that it’s been revealed (The Christian Science Monitor) her former “First Hubby” could have been the REAL governor of Alaska all along. Are we really listening to “Sarah Palin Unplugged” or are we really listening to “Todd Palin Unplugged” via those sexy lips of hers everytime she starts blabbing at a microphone?

Most certainly a legitimate question now that we’ve learned through emails obtained via the FOIA the fact that Mr. Palin himself made some pretty important “gubernortorial” decisions in the capacity of an “unpaid adviser” role to his former governor(?) wife during her short stay at the top of Alaska’s Executive Branch, isn’t it? Oh, and remember who is asking the questions here — a former classmate of BOTH of these people — attended Wasilla Junior High School with Sarah (Heath — now Palin) for a couple of years before moving up to Glennallen to both attend school and play on the varsity basketball team with Todd (“First Dood”) Palin. Does that make me kind of “special”? You BET it does — not because of who they are today but because of who I remember both of these folks to have been, personality-wise. Oh, and IF these two “High School Sweethearts” ever attended high school together, I most certainly don’t remember it since both Glennallen and Wasilla are almost 200 miles apart. HMMM.

Sarah was the nice, pretty, intelligent girl in school — perhaps, the most of ALL of the aforementioned adjectives applied. Todd, on the other hand, was a nice enough guy I suppose but he DEFINITELY struck me as the more relentless power-seeker between these two folks. He was also the one more born with the proverbial “silver spoon” than his (now) better half. Whether we’re talking about business, racing, playing hoops or chasing the ladies, the former “First Dood” was relentlessly competitive despite the fact his other half obtained the nickname of “The Barracuda” in high school. The most likely to succeeed between the two? Definitely Todd Palin, if for no other reason than for the fact he INHERITED a fleet of fishing boats worth millions from his family sometime after high school. It never really made sense to me — Sarah being the governor and Todd being the (yeah, RIGHT) “blue collar” pumphouse guy — freezing his butt off on the North Slope. Now it finally does.

I fully believe to this very day it is Todd Palin who vacated the Alaska State Governorship, if only by proxy and after the revelation of those emails, I fully believe it is Todd Palin who we can assume is behind the (highly PROFITABLE) Tea Party movement and until I’m proven wrong, I’m sticking TO that belief. It’s also my belief Mr. “First Dood” has higher aspirations than that, like, oh, say… a “Hillary Clinton-esque”, behind-the-scenes presidency in 2012 but hey — that’s just MOI.

    New Pork King Of The Senate: Senator Richard Shelby (R-AL) Blocks Any Further Obama Nominee Confirmations Until Alabama Receives Billions In Earmarks

    [So-Called] “Conservative” Republican Senator Torqued Off At Fact That Bailout Package He Voted Against While Containing Billions Of Dollars Of His Own Pork Has Yet To Be Spent In His Home State…

    Senator Richard Shelby Puts Block On Further Obama Executive Confirmations Until The Alabama Earmarks and Pork Barrel Projects He Voted Against Are In Place

    Senator Richard Shelby Puts Block On Further Obama Executive Confirmations Until The Alabama Earmarks He Voted Against Are In Place

    Senator Richard Shelby — what a guy. One can only assume the man is still in strict opposition to the Obama Stimulus plan since he clearly voted against it, yet, now the man is now whining like the stuck pig he is because the billions in pork barrel projects he voted against while simultaneously sponsoring them haven’t trickled down into our Great State of Alabama as of today. While I’ll admit I’m almost NEVER the “smartest guy in the room” (almost any given room), it almost — ALMOST causes me to ponder if Senator Shelby had actually WANTED and personally PREDICTED President Barack Hussein Obama’s BURP [a.,k.,a., "Bush Ultimate Rescue II"] Plan to pass despite his “NAE” vote. I know, I know — it’s a huge stretch — we all know the G.O.P. is the party of small “gub’mint”, after all, do we not? Perhaps, I’m jumping to unfounded conclusions again, as I often do? Yeah, that must be it…

    But I do know this much — this almost reminds me of the time Senator Shelby’s Alabama Senate compadré, Jeff Sessions reminded us how sometimes “Holds are good gub’mint” when it was discovered the equally-”Conservative” former Senator from Alaska, Mister Ted “Bridge To Knowhere” Stevens single-handedly (and secretly) blocked Congressional legislation intended to make ALL federal earmarks “transparent”. Fast-forward to today and now we have Senator Shelby single-handedly deciding to block any current (of the seventy or so) remaining Obama Executive nominees from being confirmed (Talking Points Memo) by the Senate — for personal and political gain…

    IMAGINE THAT.
