FSM bless Sarah Palin; she is the gift that keeps on giving to progressive America. Now that she is no longer kept sequestered by the McCain campaign, she bursting out into the media, showing us exactly the results of 25 years of conservative rule. All I can say, is that I think the McCain campaign was smart to keep her away from the cameras as much as they did.

Wolf Blitzer asks Palin to comment on the historic occasion of our first African American presidency (why? Does Palin have some special insight into the African American experience? Hell, I'm pretty sure that she's only vaguely aware of history) and Palin trots out the rote talking points that she's looking forward to working with him, especially on energy independence (she keeps using that phrase, but I'm not sure she knows what it means. Energy independence doesn't mean more checks for Alaskans solely, does it?). But Blitzer points out that Palin's campaign rhetoric (oh Wolf, let's not play the blame game) and Palin unapologetically reiterates the Ayers smear.

PALIN: It would be my honor to assist and support our new president and the new administration, yes. And I speak for other Republicans, other Republican governors also. They being willing, also, to, again, seize this opportunity that we have to progress this nation together, a united front.

BLITZER: Because, you know, during a campaign, every presidential campaign, things are said that's tough. As you well know, it gets sometimes pretty fierce out there.

And during the campaign, you said this. You said, This is not a man who sees America as you see it and how I see America. And then you went on to say, Someone who sees America, it seems as being so imperfect that he's palling around with terrorists who would target their own country.

PALIN: Well, I still am concerned about that association with Bill Ayers. And if anybody still wants to talk about it, I will, because this is an unrepentant domestic terrorist who had campaigned to blow up, to destroy our Pentagon and our U.S. Capitol. That's an association that still bothers me, and I think it's still fair to talk about it.

Yup, there's your united Republican front all right.

Transcripts below the fold

BLITZER: Let's talk a little bit about what's going on in our country right now. It's a pretty historic moment, when you think about it, the first African-American president, President-elect Barack Obama. This is historic. What does it mean to you?

PALIN: It's historic, and I think this time is full of optimism. And it's an opportunity for everybody to get it together and start working together. For us, as Republicans, to reach out to Barack Obama and the new administration that will be ushered in, and offer the solutions that we see for meeting some of America's great challenges right now.

This is an opportunity to all be working together. And of course President-elect Obama had promised also bipartisan efforts to meet the challenges. So let's seize this opportunity. Let's take him up on that offer. And let's all start working together.

BLITZER: Are you ready to help him?

PALIN: Absolutely, especially on energy independence, energy security that we need for this nation. Being the governor of an energy-producing state, knowing that we have the domestic solutions there in our state and in other energy-producing states, I'm more than willing and able to help President-elect Obama to start tapping into the domestic solutions that we have now so we can quit being so reliant on foreign sources of energy.

BLITZER: So if he reaches out to you and says, Governor Palin, I need your help on energy, or some other issues, kids with special needs, for example, and says, I want you to be part of a commission, you would be more than happy to say, Yes, Mr. President?

PALIN: It would be my honor to assist and support our new president and the new administration, yes. And I speak for other Republicans, other Republican governors also. They being willing, also, to, again, seize this opportunity that we have to progress this nation together, a united front.

BLITZER: Because, you know, during a campaign, every presidential campaign, things are said that's tough. As you well know, it gets sometimes pretty fierce out there.

And during the campaign, you said this. You said, This is not a man who sees America as you see it and how I see America. And then you went on to say, Someone who sees America, it seems as being so imperfect that he's palling around with terrorists who would target their own country.

PALIN: Well, I still am concerned about that association with Bill Ayers. And if anybody still wants to talk about it, I will, because this is an unrepentant domestic terrorist who had campaigned to blow up, to destroy our Pentagon and our U.S. Capitol. That's an association that still bothers me, and I think it's still fair to talk about it.

However, the campaign is over, that chapter is closed. Now is the time to move on and to, again, make sure that all of us are doing all we can to progress this nation. Keep us secure, get the economy back on the right track. And many of us do have some ideas on how to do that, and hopefully we'll be able to put all that wisdom and experience to good use together.

BLITZER: So, looking back, you don't regret that tough language during the campaign?

PALIN: No, and I do not think that it is off base, nor mean- spirited, nor negative campaigning to call someone out on their associations and on their record. And that's why I did it.

BLITZER: And just one historic footnote. Was that your idea or did somebody write those lines for you?

PALIN: Oh, it was a collaborative effort there in deciding, how do we start bringing up some of the associations that perhaps would be impacting on an administration, on the future of America? But again though, Wolf, knowing that it really at this point, I don't want to point fingers backwards and play the blame game, certainly on anything that took place in terms of strategy or messaging in the campaign. Now is the time to move forward together, start progressing America.

I wouldn't let her run the day care center.

I would put her in charge of inspecting creationist museums.


OH AND PLEASE
stop making Palin posts!!! PLEASE!!!

The great C&L is getting very MsM like by continuing to cover her.

She is done, toast, no mas, finito. Huffpo is doing the same shit.

Please stop!!! Please!!! I have a post idea. C&L's top ten things

Obama should focus on!!!

I love you, thank you!!!! xoxox

nt

No more! Please! Pretty please. With sugar on it.

If I wanted to watch crap tv I would buy a tv.

Whenever you see Sarah Palin on the tv, change the channel. You hear her on the radio, you change the station. You see her on a blog, don't post there, or post "not worth commenting". Eventually Crazy Lady should be left shouting at walls. It doesn't stop the wingnuts, but maybe it will help.

And I DO want her to go away, but Huffpo and C&L are getting a jump on destroying the Right Wing's Great Honky Hope, in effect killing this stupid brood-mare before the egg hatches. We can deal with her now, or deal with her in 2012, after most of electoral America has hit the reset button on their memories...

)O(

For a doctor surely you realize brood mares don't lay eggs.

Or are you mixing your metaphors?

What are you saying about our President Elect?

One thing you can say about Sarah, when she learns a talking point, she learns it well and can spit it out on cue. And she'll spit out a memoroized talking point regardless if it has anything to do with the question.

much of what was crammed into that tiny brain with Rove's shovel, but so much has remained. There may yet be time to make her sound as smart as GWB by '12...

A United Front

"They being willing,
Also, to, again,
Seize this opportunity that we have to progress this nation together,
A united front." - Palin

she SAID THAT??

It's a haiku. Or a "Wassilagism"

Go back to breeding and shootin' terrist wolves. Your 15 minutes of fame are up. Perhaps American Idol could use you.

Good grief:

"Now is the time to move forward together, start progressing America."

Please, MSM, do us all a favor and stop giving her a platform. Her 15 minutes are long over.

What an embarrassingly stupid woman.

I loved the look on Blitzer's face when she said that, btw.

WHY?

You think Ayers is dangerous? You need anti psychotic meds, sister. Obama's supposed involvement with Ayers, which is in reality a figment of your delusional Neocon imagination is real small time compared with your association with AIP. Hanging with secessionists is about as traitorous and radical as you can get.

Or if you think Ayers is really dangerous, be sure to also round up the head of that committee he served with Ayers on---Leonore Annenberg---a conservative Reagan REPUBLICAN.

You are one stupid dolt, Sarah. I pray you are the future of the Neocon party---we will have so much fun ramming you through the shredder again and again because of your blatant incompetence and arrogance.

Wolfman Blitzkrieg: Governor, let's say President Obama says he wants you to work with him on a project like energy or special needs children. Would you do that?

Palin Comparison: Oh, absolutely, Wolfman. It would be an honor and also not to mention as well a way to keep the spotlight where it belongs. On me.

Wolfman Blitzkrieg: Now, Governor, I have to bring something up you said on the campaign.

Palin Comparison: Yes, I imagine also you would have to do that, since it's Gotcha Journalims time, you betcha.

Wolfman Blitzkrieg: You said, and I quote:

Todd and I invited Barack and Michelle over for dinner one night, and when they came over, they ate our little baby. That's right, I tell ya, Barack and Michelle Obama snuck into our baby's room --- his name was Tugboat, but he's no longer with us --- sliced him up, brought him into the kitchen, cooked him, and ate him. They thought it would be a contribution to the dinner, I guess, but we were horrified. And we promptly kicked them out of our home!

Palin Comparison: Yes, Wolfman, I said that. And I stand by it.

Wolfman Blitzkrieg: You do? There was never any evidence for that outrageous claim.

Palin Comparison: You know, Wolfman, faith is an important part of my life, and I'm just glad also at this point to take comfort in my faith knowing that little baby Tugboat is with little baby Jesus now.

Wolfman Blitzkrieg: But, Governor, if you really believe this story, and the accusations are true, how can you want to work with President Obama?

Palin Comparison: Oh, Wolfman, now is not the time for wagging blame and finger pointers, since that part of the election, and getting mad and all that, is over now, and also we have a new president, and now is the time also for looking forward. I don't think we can't still talk about how the Obamas gobbled up my child right in front of me, and I still think also that it's something we should look into, since it could affect his governmentalism, but you know, now is the time for forward thinking, and looking, and doors being open by god, not closed.

So .. YOU are the one who's been writing her lines !!

roflmao

Hahahahaha......awesome, and pretty damn close to the current media!!

But I thought the baby's name was Avalanche.

)O(

Heeeyy...

Wolfman was my nickname in Junior High school.

I had to start shaving my mustache at 11, my beard at 13. I also had the hairiest drumsticks in the school in my gym shorts.

LOL! So you matured early. Didn't Sarah birth some babies by the time she was 13? Or was it her first confirmed wolf kill?

i'da prob'ly been chasin' you if we'd been at the same school.

Better you than sarah

I woulda been her first confirmed wolf kill.

too many g's at the end of words. You know - gettin', lookin', somethin', thinkin'...

so will someone do us all a public service and send her a pair of red sequin shoes with instructions for her to click her heels together three times?

Either that or stuff her in a box and ship her back to Alaska via UPS.

Blitzer's question about how Palin feels about the first African-American president just seems racist.

"And I speak for other Republicans, other Republican governors also."
I love it when she speaks for other Republicans, especially the governors also.

A perfect representation of what went terribly wrong with the Republican Party in the last decade.
Every politician has a role to play, some are here to change policy and advance important agendas. Some are simply around to serve as a warning on what not to do (i.e., every Republican and Democrat that has been involved in a scandal) and Mrs. Palin herself.
Here is a manufactured, propped up piece of political strategery that went terribly wrong for the McCain campaign. There is no doubt she remains an intriguing albeit very ignorant person that has captivated the country's attention this year. At the same time it is important for the Republican Party to learn from her mistakes. I've heard many Republicans say there is a great deal of "soul searching" to be done in the next 4 years. Which is an idiotic statement alone because the idea of soul searching is in an individualistic journey, not a collective experience.
I'm going to predict that the best offering the GOP will have in 2012 will be Mitt Romney.

How is a VERY average,

as I was saying, how is a very average, very common middle-American know-nothing get to be called "intriguing"? is it her fabulous wardrobe? is it her gripping speaking style? is it her deep love of the Constitution? Or is it the fact that she looks like the cover of a MILF video?

This heffa is so phoney and hasn't got a clue!!

(I usually download them first and then play them, as my download speed is rather slow.Prevents the pausing and buffering.) Happened on the Bilge-O/Dreck clip as well.

These pundits talk to her as if she's normal. They actually act as if she speaks the english language.

Please no more bush bizarro world!


ENOUGH!!!!!

)O(

sarah's already breaking out her parochial school knee-pads.

Oh please, just the one on the trigger. Pleeezze....

Not even digging into her left nostril for that one elusive humongous booger?

Works for me.

)O(

Interesting you should say that. Ancient Egyptian embalmers used to withdraw the dead's brains through their noses with some kind of metal instrument.

she should be bothered that she has absolutely no clue as to who ayres is

stupid ****

She is beginning to sound like a broken record. A nonthinking, ignorant, narrowminded, scary broken record.

...about Alaska? about the Republican Party? about John McCain, war hero?

Make it go away, or at least contain her to GOP Only functions.

Could you imagine Obama tapping her for anything?

You are clueless. Please be quiet.
Stay in Alaska, or better still move across the Berring Straight and live in Siberia. They seem to like you there.

Is that a verb?

.

...the more she does the more RIDICULOUS she becomes.

She runs around screeching about terrorists and yet her husband is a member of secessionist group???

why Wolf doesn't ask her about THAT?

"There you go again."

I had a class with Professor Ayers at the University of Chicago. I sure hope I don't get investigated by Sarah's security detail. It sounded like a bunch of high minded theory on educational practices, but I suppose he could have been sending out coded messages the whole time. By the way, Professor Ayers has the perfect background to make a fine Secretary of Education. Maybe Sarah could work with him on banning books.

I'm sure Barack can't wait to work with her on energy policy. Nothing like an expert on fossil fuels who believes fossils are a trick by the devil.

Decidedly holding his own.

Said he "consulted" with Hillary, mum on giving her a cabinet position.

...that i've wished I had a televison.

I'm sure. Give 'em an hour or two.

thanks.

Too much Palin. But don't blame C&L, blame the MSM. Damn, why can't they give it a rest? Wolfie is just trying to stir the pot and make sure to remind everyone that Obama knew Ayers. We don't care if he knew Ayers. Ayers was never convicted of a crime. Ayers belonged to a radical group when Obama was 8 years old. Shit, here I'm reminding everyone. My bad.

...concerning the Ayers matter. Wolf's a used-up absurdity.

.

Someone could try to explain to her the difference between transitive and intransitive verbs. But it's not going to be me.

learning some very bad English from Palin.

At least when quoting in print, one can use sic to indicate mistakes.

For once, I wish a pundit would just publicly humiliate her with her own misuse of English.

...they haven't done it to Bush yet, now, have they?

I counted "workin'" (three times), "tappin'" and "progressin'" delivered out of that faux-folksy, irritating, chirpy "Fargo" pie-hole of hers.

I'm beginning to think the only reason she has on a shirt that says "ALASKA" on it is that she can find her way home, like kids coming home from camp with a tag on their coats.

Are they polluting the air with Stupid Gas up in Alaska? Sure seems like a lot of maroons from up there.

when she lands.

with "Alaska" on it.

If I hear her use the phrase, "usher in", again with that incredibly irritating screech of a voice, I'm going to usher in a bottle of Drano.

)O(

Sarah Palin's husband is an unrepentant un-American secessionist. Obama didn't pal around with Ayers when Obama was 8 years old. Sarah does pal around with her husband and the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree.

.

.

People,
Let's not forget who sleeps with a separatist...

.

)O(

They sleep in seperate beds?

The rightwingers slinging mud about sexual indescretions are more often than not caught in bathrooms exposing themselves; text messaging underage pages; with prostitutes ect.

The Sarah Palin's sling mud about anti-americanism and palling around with terrorist should give us pause. She herself is literally IN BED with a successionist -- what is more anti-american than that?

Bush and Cheney crying "terrorist wolf" all the time has done more to destroy this country than bin laden.

She's a psycho. She's all nice and cooperative in the beginning of this clip and then when Ayers is mentioned whamo! Right out the blue she turns into a physco pit bull with lipstick. She's a Jeckel and Hyde nutcase.

?

exactly.

Jekyll

what she and the rest of the scum from the republican party tried to do to Obama's character is unforgivable. At least by me. I realize that Obama is above it, but I'm not. Screw her and the rest of those cocksuckers. I wouldn't cross the street to piss on them if they were on fire. What is the point of running a clean campaign if you turn around and agree to work with the people that called you a terrorist?

And should half the country support you when they are written off as not being the "real America". She's just another divisive mean spirited Republican. Karma's not done with her yet.

How many times does she say the word "solutions" in all her interviews? She says a lot of nothing when she opens her mouth full of empty platitudes and buzz words and no specifics. Her mindless followers eat that shit with a spoon.

Why does she keep using the word "again." Is it her simpliton way of covering all bases, since she hasn't a clue of what she should be saying. Like a pundit for MSNBC said, "it's not that she doesn't have an answer, it's that she doesn't understand the question."

Also, is it just me but I find this woman totally devoid of sexuality -- attractive - yes -- but sexy == NO.

I don't trust anybody who uses "progress" as a verb

Heh...heh...heh

When I jumped back in it said 69

Heh...heh...heh...

I'm the alpha female so don't dare,
I'll talk directly to the folks I do swear,

If you ask about Trigger,
or how Bristol got bigger,

Our next interview will be from the air.

where the fuck is her little downs syndromed baby? This should be like the "Where's Osama?" query every person should ask whenever they see George W. Bush. Whenever Palin shows up anywhere, people should say, "Where's your infant? Why the hell aren't you raising your children instead of trying to extend your fleeting 15 minutes of fame?"

)O(

Hey hey now, cool it with that witch crack.

People will think your gingrich's ma.

These people are morons. They really don't know anything about history. They think terrorists destroyed the WTC and some embassies, so if the Weather Underground bombed the Capitol and the Pentagon then the WU were trying to destroy those buildings. They think because right wing terrorists and Islamic terrorists are willing to kill people, then the WU must have intended to kill people, too. They have no idea about what the WU was really about or how they actually acted. They just hear terrorist and get a picture in their minds and don't bother to find out anything about the reality. That's the problem with them, a total lack of curiosity and a total commitment to the belief that they already know and don't have to investigate.

That giant sucking sound that you hear is from the knife that entered the back and pierced your lung.
Democrats, for your own sake and for your colleagues across the aisle.......shut the door on "that one".

The next time one of these kool-aid drinking wing nuts brings up Bill Ayers, they should be asked if Ayers should have been executed. If execution is too extreme for the hapless wing nut than what would have been the proper punishment for Ayers seeing that he has already fulfilled his obligation to society.
What in the f%$# does Ayers being punished for his crimes have to do with Obama?

about Ayers AFTER WE TALK about:

using your office to fire your ex-bro-in-law;
your associations with extreme right-wingers;
Todd's and your associations with America-hating kracker terrorists;
banning books from the Wasilla library;
firing public employees eho disagree with youre radical rightist agenda;
who built Chez Palin for free and what he got for it;
oh yeah, the friggin clothes;
why you bilk Alaskan taxstooges per diem for sleeping AT Chez Palin;
your pattern of screwing over your allies - who sorta deserve it for associating with you;
mooching trips on the public dime for carting your truant brats everywhere;
making women bear their rapists spawn and charging them for their rape kits;
your unelected hubby's involvement in state's business;
naming Bristol's wedding date; and
on and on and on.

Talibunny is pathetic.

"Oh, please, anything, Barack! Anything! I'll switch parties! I'll clean the toilets with my tongue! Just let me stay on TV forever!

"I'll say anything you want! I'll chew the smegma off of your genitals. PWEESE, BARACK! Give me a chance! "

...going for it. With all the focus on Bible Spice, Bush is doing what ever he can to set the table for an Obama failure.

Not only does her voice hurt the ears, her speech boggles the mind. She is the face of the Republican Party. The talkers of the right wing have put her there. Not one of the Republicans is going to put Bible Spice in the back seat, even though they wet dream about it. The more she talks, the more the republicans fade into the past.

Keep her front and center. I hope she is the mouth piece of the Republicans after Jan 20th. President Obama will end up with 98% approval rating and more Political Capitol than Reagan.

.

Sarah Palin is a poster child for the slogan, "If you think education is expensive, give ignorance a try!"

I just can't bring myself to listen to her vids. I had way to much of that grating voice during the election!!

As I watch Woffy every day because of Jack Cafferty, I did notice that the weekend show is a recapture of the week. There was nothing new, only repeats of the early interview done with Palin last weeks.
Lets cool off she is back in “Alaskaa” and hope out of the Media where she should be with $150.000 wardrobes pay for by the Stupid Repubs party.

"What is wrong with this person?" but i think it would be easier to answer the question, "What is right with this person?"

She did everything but call Obama a n@gg@r and she has fomented outright rage against this man who will be our next President, but it is politically expedient she will perform oral sex on him on 60 Minutes.

This woman has nothing but ambition to offer the American people. Nothing but her own ambition.

Nothing.

This woman is so full of crap I'm surprized she doesn't explode!
Why is it that none of these so called reporters never ask he about he association with the alaska independence party?
Could it be that the boys in the back room said we pay you and you cannot say that? Yep you know it is so. No matter how many times they deny it. You do understand that who ever pays the piper calls the tune?

Also again Also again Also again Also again Also again

I completely agree with earlier posts....this hopelessly unqualified, overly ambitious, back stabbing liar is truly unworthy of the notoriety she's receiving.

C&L, please stop.

)O(

Until the rest of world agrees with us and stops trying to make her look good, C&L would have to continue or she might be back.

that this maroon is going to write a book. Damn, first Joe the dummy and now Sarah the stupid.

It's easy to wave the flag and play cheerleader when you lost your ass in an election! She's just as dumb now as she was 3 weeks ago.

Actually, I love the Palin posts because it's cheap therapy for me. Nothing I like more than taking pot shots at her.

The bottom line is as long as she keeps opening her mouth, there will always be plenty to grunt about.
