The Big Question: Were Those Sarah’s Or Her Hubby The Former “First Dood’s” Talking 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…
“Pot” — meet “Kettle“.

A roundup of my “faves”: See the Drudge Retort (Left); Michelle Malkin (Right) calls it “Hand Jive“; The Mahablog (Left); Ron Chusid of Liberal Values (Left) offers a “Top Ten” list of things written on Sarah’s palm…







I have to agree with you, GTL. I’ve been following a lot more Conservatives/Republicans on twitter recently and they all bash Obama for using a teleprompter, but then when Palin has notes on her hand and all of that, they can’t accept it. But, I guess I can understand the rationale. She only used it for notes; he uses the teleprompter religiously. Then again, though, he did amazing during that Q&A with the Republicans.
Wow! A few words on cards to make sure she gets all her points in. Yep. That is EXACTLY the same as reading off an entire speech from a prompter as she swivels her head every four seconds like a wiper blades – left screen, right screen,left screen, right screen. You could put up Section 1.10.32 of “de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum”, written by Cicero in 45 BC and he would try to read it off without noticing it.
And, how about laying of your pal, Todd, the co-gov of AK. After all, our current SecState was the first female black co-president of the US and ran the country while Willie was checking out internal affairs and giving oral exams.
@Joe Lovell, You do realize she used a teleprompter all throughout the campaign (and even after), right?
I am not sure why anyone is shocked or surprised or even agitated by the fact that Governor Palin often sought council in her husband. It has seemed in the past to not be an issue for male leaders to proclaim their dependence upon, or their respect for, or value of their spouses opinions. I would be surprised if their hadn’t been large amounts of correspondence
between the governor and her husband. Do you think that Clinton or Obama would care to divulge all their communications with their spouses under the same scrutiny? unlikely
Just another moronic, childish attack upon the person. All the better for keeping attention focused away from the issues.
It is funny to watch… as the democrats become more and more afraid of a Palin candidacy the more they try to attack her character and her intellect – playing on the old notion that anybody that hot can’t be smart too – it just wouldn’t be fair.
Although becoming heavily tarnished by their own words and deeds, the democrat Party of Hate still lives. Attaboy dems, just keep up the baseless attacks on republicans and see what happens to ya this fall.
GTL, youre “bleeding” bro…Anything “Sarah” to distract from the complete incompetency exhibited by Obama and his boys. Gee, seems the MSM missed the latest drop in his approval ratings…

Rush just played a montage of Wolf “Blitzed” on CNN reporting on Bush and his low approval ratings on ONE DAY with hourly updates on “how poorly he is doing”….He report on the approval ratings plummit of his boy Obama…chirp, chirp, chirp, like the stories on Dingy Harry using “Negro” and Pelosi throwing the CIA under the bus(remember that one folks)…dead silence from the MSM.
As far as Palin and her hot palm reading, come on man. Obama used a friggin telepromtor speaking to a 1st graders….

Your attempt at defending Obama and his horder of liberal loonies is as bad as the Jags trying to stop the bleeding….

“The Obama Administration is vindicating Bush antiterror policy.”
My, my, MY! Weren’t we told for two years, well close to three now, that everything the Bush Administration did in that realm was eeeeee-vvvilll and illegal? And now The OneWhoWon is doing the exact same thing for the exact same reasons.
Well, I’m sure it is just fine now that it is no longer the eeeeee-vvvviilll Bush Administration that is doing it. After all, the former jr. sen. from IL can do no wrong.
@Joe Lovell, Not only is it OK now since it is Obama’s “administration” that is doing it, but it is still Evil and Wrong that Bush did exactly the same things for the same reasons.
@F&B, and then, after starting off by shutting out the GOP with his “I won, so sod off” attitude, echoed by the dems in both houses of Congress, he is puzzled by: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100209/ap_on_bi_ge/us_obama_bipartisanship
That good old hard elbow to the ribs and a “That’s a JOKE, boy! Yer s’pposed t’laugh!” after insulting the the middle and right. He is showing his Ayers/Alinski/Chicago Machine political education. And that is all he is – a small time Chicago capon who charmed his way into the oval office.
