Sarah Palin Speaking To Workers At Solar Energy Plant: DRILL BABY DRILL!!

Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin has been a treasure trove of highlights. Charges of Socialism, Communism and terrorism on the campaign trail have transformed her into the walking, talking poster child for failed Republican policies and talking points -- not to mention one of the biggest jokes in American political history.
According to the AP's Beth Fouhy, Sarah Palin's attempt at an energy policy speech in front of workers at a solar energy plant in Toledo, Ohio Wednesday didn't go over too well. Gee...I wonder why?
TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) — Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin on Wednesday called for a "clean break" from the Bush administration's energy policies, which she says rely too much on importing foreign oil.
Palin spoke after touring Xunlight Corp., one of a handful of solar technology startup companies in Toledo, a struggling industrial city in this swing state. The city's leaders are hoping that the solar companies will create jobs to replace some of those lost by downsizing in the auto industry.
But Palin made only a passing reference to solar power in her speech and instead renewed her call for more drilling in U.S. coastal waters. She repeated her signature anthem, "drill, baby, drill," which seemed to fall a bit flat on the audience at the plant even as it's become a popular chant at her rallies. Read on...

She then appeared at The Johns Hopkins Burn Center and said, "Burn Baby Burn!"
at a shelter for battered women she was heard to say "sock it to me baby!"
She showed up at a Klan hate rally and said "Can't we all just get along?"
She slashed the Special Olympics budget and then went on to talk so much 'bout how she's s'portin' those special needs kids. You betcha!
Oh, sorry, I'm being told she actually did that.
Sara Palin went to a Ford/Lincoln/Mercury plant in MI and said, "You are the Cadillac of the American workers."
Sarah Palin is the special needs candidate.
Isn't money for special needs kids ...socialism?
Not that I'm against it, but...
Sara Palin is Lady Macbeth without the conscience.
was well spoken...
was the most demeaning thing she could do to women. She is truly a tart, winking at the men watching her debate.
I'm a woman and her antics with men and the skirt hiked up to her upper thighs during the last interview spell out one thing: whore.
Drill me Baby Drill me
if she waves her tongue and squeezed her breasts during the debate
She's a disgrace to all the women who came before her and had to fight hard to win equal rights in the workplace and in government.
And there she is, the ridiculous barbie doll of a pseudo-candidate. Prop her up and pull her string. She winks, she flirts and she repeats whatever her owners tell her to.
She's revolting.
nt
it did get me to sit up straighter on the couch. Hahahahaha!
Will someone please get this poor excuse for an informed candidate off the national stage soon before she makes it bad for intelligent women everywhere!!
I don't believe I've ever seen someone so pathetically unqualified trying to "pimp" the american people.
She's become a sad, empty, vacuous shill.
I have a better idea. Instead why don't intelligent people everywhere just go ahead and make it bad for her?
Let's hope that she is the Republican candidate in 2012, running against Obama's 2nd term.
There is no doubt that Obama is going to have his hands full trying to reverse the FUBAR economy from end of the Clinton administration through the end of the Bush administration.
But, no matter how difficult, and regardless of the progress he is able to make, he will be GUARANTEED a 2nd term with her running.
How about Palin/Joe the (not) plummer?
Anyway, I am very confident that Obama will win. I have already voted, and encourage as many others to as well.
So, I already have my rebuts prepared for the far right republicans that will challenge the progress of Obama's administration.
It will be, "come on, you have to give Obama at least 2 years, so keep on blaming (Bill) Clinton until then, OK?".
Peace everyone, and EVERYONE please vote (early if possible)!
If the old guy and ms. runner up lose on Nov 4, which I hope they do, she may run in 2012. I cannot wait for her to make a fool out of herself. She will probably be in jail for all the ethics violations in Alaska. Awesome. Waiting for the porno to come out, "Nailin' Paylin."
She supports a new investigation into 9/11!!!:

It's kinda funny when you think about it. Poor Ron Paul got beaten up in the Republican debate by the Fox News a-hole: "Sir. You have many so-called "9/11 Truthers" supporting you. Will you denounce them as supporters tonight sir???!!"
Gee. I wonder why Fox isn't going after Palin??
As the days elapse and no medical records are brought forth, american can speculate about the obvious: 1) breast augmentation 2) abortion
Really? I was speculating about 1) Brain Cancer 2) Frontal Lobotomy.
A gender reassignment.

Any chance that Tuesday is National "Elect a Moron" Day? I sure hope not..
Oh my dear sweet lord.
This lady has to be God's latest gift to comedy in the past few years.
Pushing oil drilling at a Solar energy plant, that's like bringing a knife to a gunfight, or having Hank Williams Jr. play a hip-hop festival.
But yeah, what a moron.
That pic of her right there in mid-wink is truly frightening to me. Just in time for Halloween. Perhaps I'll print it out and hang it on my front door to scare the kids when they come trick-or-treating.
In other news, Joe was a no-show at a McCain rally. Right at the end-point you can see and hear the saddening disappointment come over Mac.

One more public display of the disarray in McCain's campaign.
But here's the latest: And guess what?? It's all bull$hit and lies. Total spin without substance....the fact is that Obama is leading on the state polling and will pull off an electoral college landslide.

Well I see her intelligence matches her judgment. She has none of either.
I guess she has her speeches memorized and no matter where she is, she says the same things. This "drill baby drill" phrase sounds so juvenile. Once more taking a serious subject and dumbing it down to a silly cheer like statement.
I expect all she can see when faced with the prospect of solar power is the loss of all those kickbacks from her oil company sugar daddies.
And didn't boosh and his troglodytes already drop some ridiculous moratorium on solar and alternative energy research or something equally insane?
Thank the FSM this disgusting fool's 15 are almost over.
. . . Or she is in the throws of early onset dementia.
Is someone making this up?
I mean, even a *stupid* person would know that solar is alternative to fossil fuels and. . . and
Oh, God, her poor kids.
Is it contagious? Cause I bet I know where she caught it.
Your so bad!
That is soooooooooo gross!!!
Blame her script writers. Everything she says is scripted. I wouldn't expect her to have the smarts to craft her speech to suit her audience but someone in the campaign should have.
After watching the mclame campaign take that crap talk express right over a cliff I have serious doubts if there is a clue left between all of them.
Mavericks don't use the brake.
Mavericks don't avoid obstacles, Mavericks leave them in their wake.
why do you think chuck norris supports mccain??

Profile of the Sociopath
I can't wait to see how the people of Alaska welcome her back when she returns with her tail between her legs.
I don't think she will be hailed as their leader very long. Her days as head harpy are numbered.
what are people going to do when diebolt adds up the votes and palin becomes vp?
but it involves torches and pitchforks.
Don't let on about the tar and feathers.
Or the bicycle pump and the goose...
armageddon
Call me? :D lol
Can I call ya Marge? (said in my best Sarah Palin voice)
Arrrgh the horror! The horror of the palin drawl!
You betcha you can call me Marge wink wink ;)
:D
this can't be real. She really can't be THAT stupid.
wait/what?
is going to freeze like that if she doesm't stop!
Someone needs to bump her on the back of her head so it will freeze. Then she will need king's X and no tap backs to break the curse.
You are an idiot.
Let it end soon.
Thank you!
Certainly seems to be so! Check this article - Gallup Vs. Gallup - and you'll see that Obama's lead IS much larger than is being reported (for television purposes?).

http://elections.gmu.edu/early_vote_2008.html
Here's further indication that Obama's lead is being trivialized for the sake of "political theatre" and "McCain embarrassment".
Don't believe anything you hear on television about the polls being close; it's simply not true.
Teevee gone. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
We have a lot of colleges in Florida and I would bet only a handfull of those students have been polled. I would bet also bet that a whole lot of them are voting for Obama. I think Florida will go big time for Obama. Of course we have a lot of wealthy republicans in our state, especially in the south, but I doubt seriously these folks will stand in line to vote. Most likely they vote absentee and those votes are only counted if the race is very close.
Any person here would have caught that in the speech and at the very least have toned it way down, maybe to the point of removing it from the speech. Are we all that smart or is she really that ignorant?
she is dumb.

McCain campaign loses it #1 prop.
Did they forget where they put Trig?
He's probably still on the plane with a throughly disgruntled junior campaign member. But then I wondered how many members they have left on that team since they started that circular firing squad a week or so ago.
I expect we'll hear a tale or two of the babysitting duties campaigners had to endure during their time on the flake-talk express.
Trig and Joe the Plumber probably decided to get the hell out of that zoo. They are probably at a bar tonight. Little Trig having a tall cold milk and Joe having a Bud.
News Flash:
Palin is clueless.
Joe the Plumber isn't.
McCain is rich.
I was really sick one day - vomit from one end and explosive diarrhea at the other. Both at the same time. Really horrible. Went on for hours. I felt so bad that I was afraid I wasn't going to die.
That day was better than listening to Palin speak.
Whoa there partner!
Way too many details....but I do get your point.
All this talk about Palin being the next leader of the Republican Party. I could only hope for such a easy target in 4yrs. "In the land of the blind the one eyed man (or woman) is King.
an interesting color she's wearing. Norwegian Blue isn't it?
The plumage don't enter into it...
It's stone dead.
appears to be bereft of intelligence at any rate.
No one's going to mention that Ipswich isn't a "palin"drome for Bolton?
her speech pattern is referred to as a Palindrone.
This made me seriously LOL.
So good it hurts XD
It's restin'.
You nailed it's bloody feet to the perch.
otherwise it would have muscled up to those bars and BOOM!
It wouldn't voom if you put 4 million volts through it!
a thousand right wing pundits.
I expect it will do a little dance when the diebold machines give it 4 million "votes".
And I expect that many pundits would smell like a dead parrot.
On topic for this joke:

This bird is definitely past tense.
was my inspiration for a reference to the parrot sketch. Thanks for the second one. I hadn't seen that. LOL
the Spanish Inquisition!
How'd ya like that segue? :P
One of your many weapons of surprise? :D
Surprise and fear, fear and surprise....
Our two chief weapons are fear and surprise and ruthless efficiency...
Our THREE main weapons are...
THE COMFY CHAIR!!!!!!
LOL! :D
The rack. I love that bit. Thanks, AK!
:D
Perhaps she meant "Drill, baby, drill"...with SOLAR drills!
drills that have suns as their bits? Awesome!
You mean a fire drill!
a hose.
No, see, she's supporting drilling on the sun. Now, you might think this is not feasible, due to the sun being so hot. But she has a plan, you see: she's going to go at night.
my main objection to the Palin/McCain ticket is their proposed tax breaks for rapists and those guilty of incest/rape.
That's right! They stand on puppies and kittens....cruel bastards!
By being an ineffectual, power hungry dunce. Palin may not know what the 'Bush Doctrine' is, but she sure knows the 'Bush Election Strategy'.
This is part of Palin's 2012 election strategy. She is having expectations plummet so when 2012 comes along, anything a republican says, including her, will be smarter.
Let's hope that by then people will have had a chance to experience a real government again and won't be looking to trade down.
Wouldn't it be sweet?
I fear that Bush's successor must need to spend most of the time cleaning up the rubble of eight years of Republican misrule and thirty years of Reaganomics.
And there's no doubt in my mind that what's left of the reslug party will do everything they can to stick the new guy with the blame for all of it.
It's the only way they'll be able to carry the hate/fear thing forward. Just keep reminding everyone about all the problems and have their msm dogs help with the lies.
It's how they work. And it's not going to change.
Where is Jennifer Saunders When You Need Her?
Sarah was made for Ab Fab.
Don't Speak for Me Sarah Palin:

Well gosh, How're ya supposed ta get Solar Energy without drillin into the sun!
Really sublime
:D
I can hardly wait to see her try this on the beach in Santa Barbara.
Must be those long Alaskan winters.
Can't we just ignore her?
She doesn't deserve all the wasted bandwidth.
I find Palin nonsensical when talking about anything especially energy. mcLiar said Palin is one of the leading experts regarding energy. Personally I find that amusing. Palin was given the nod by mccain campaign
strategist to stimulate the base. Especially the evangelicals/Right to Life people. mccain doesn't even agree
with these people. Obama let us do the dirty work. C&L and members here did a great job trust me we were
heard and still being heard.
Sarah Palin, her husband and 5 children, together, will, or already have, collect $23000 from windfall profits taxes she, herself, imposed on the oil companies for Alaskan citizens. Each PERSON in the state collect around $3300 each year, more or less, depending on the amount of profit the companies make. So, when she yells, "Drill Baby Drill", she is ONLY thinking about herself. The more they drill, the more she and her family receives.
Someone should ask McCain why he thinks it's okay for her to "spread the wealth around" to Alaskans while the rest of us pay a higher price for gas and heating oil to accommodate Alaskans, but it's not okay to have that same tax Nationally and spread the wealth around to the "lower 48" and Hawaii. Why is one socialism and the other NOT?
She just must be shepparded around these things and handed a speech or a bunch of talking points... she must have no clue what is going on around her..... the last thing solar energy workers want to her is about oil. vote for Palin if you want your politicians to just be robotic talking point regurgitates... with no actually thinking... she has taken it to the whole new level..
...she's got balls, or at least gall! However, she has absolutely no class whatsoever. To use a phrase I remember once hearing from Mark Russell (am I the only one who remembers him?), talk about ticky-tacky from the tundra!
I mean, good grief -- promoting oil drilling at a solar energy plant is about on a par with (and makes about as much sense as) promoting cigarettes at a conference for the American Lung Society! At best, it suggests that you're someone who couldn't get a clue even if it was dropped on you from a great height -- and at worst, that you have nothing but contempt for your audience and are offering a deliberate insult.
