"Peaceful New Yorkers, pls refute the Ground Zero mosque plan if you believe catastrophic pain caused @ Twin Towers site is too raw, too real." --a second Tweet by Sarah Palin, which she also removed after misusing the word "refute," July 18, 2010

Eureka College is in Illinois. (June 25, 2010)

"Shoot, I must have lived such a doggoned sheltered life as a normal, independent American up there in the Last Frontier, schooled with only public education and a lowly state university degree, because obviously I haven't learned enough to dismiss common sense." --Sarah Palin, on opposition to offshore oil drilling, Facebook note, June 13, 2010

"Here's an example of how it wastes some time. To be judged on or to be talked about on appearance—say chest size—it makes me wear layers, it makes me have to waste time figuring out what am I going to wear so that nobody will look in an area that I don't need them to look at." --Sarah Palin, Fox interview with Greta Van Susteren, June 12, 2010

"Unless government appropriately regulates oil developments and holds oil executives accountable, the public will not trust them to drill, baby, drill. And we must!" --Sarah Palin, Facebook note, June 8, 2010

"Extreme deep water drilling is not the preferred choice to meet our country's energy needs, but your protests and lawsuits and lies about onshore and shallow water drilling have locked up safer areas.

"We used to hustle over the border for health care we received in Canada. And I think now, isn't that ironic?" --Sarah Palin, admitting that her family used to get treatment in Canada's single-payer health care system, despite having demonized such government-run programs as socialized medicine that will lead to death-panel-like rationing, March 6, 2010

Sarah Palin, on writing notes on her hand during her Tea Party convention speech: "I didn't really had a good answer, as so often -- is me. But then somebody sent me the other day, Isaiah 49:16, and you need to go home and look it up. Before you look it up, I'll tell you what it says though. It says, hey, if it was good enough for God, scribbling on the palm of his hand, it's good enough for me, for us. He says, in that passage, 'I wrote your name on the palm of my hand to remember you,' and I'm like, 'Okay, I'm in good company.'" (March 5, 2010)

"They are kooks, so I agree with Rush Limbaugh. Rush Limbaugh was using satire ...

There is a big difference there." --Sarah Palin, attempting to rationalize why it's okay for Limbaugh to use the word "retards" but not Emanuel, FOX News Sunday interview, Feb. 7, 2010

"The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama's 'death panel' so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their 'level of productivity in society,' whether they are worthy of health care. Such a system is downright evil." –-Sarah Palin, in a message posted on Facebook about Obama's health care plan, Aug. 12, 2009

"Left Unalakleet warmth for rain in Juneau tonite. No drought threat down here, ever but consistent rain reminds us: 'No rain? No rainbow!'" --one of many Tweets by Sarah Palin that William Shatner recited as poetry on "The Tonight Show"

"I think on a national level your Department of Law there in the White House would look at some of the things that we've been charged with and automatically throw them out." --Sarah Palin, referring to a department that does not exist while attempting to explain why as president she wouldn't be subjected to the same ethics investigations that compelled her to resign as governor of Alaska, ABC News interview, July 7, 2009

"How sad that Washington and the media will never understand; it's about country. And though it's honorable for countless others to leave their positions for a higher calling and without finishing a term, of course we know by now, for some reason a different standard applies for the decisions I make." --Sarah Palin, July 4, 2009

"It may be tempting and more comfortable to just keep your head down, plod along, and appease those who demand: 'Sit down and shut up,' but that's the worthless, easy path; that's a quitter's way out." --Sarah Palin, announcing her resignation as governor, July 3, 2009

"Let me go back to a comfortable analogy for me - sports... basketball. I use it because you're naive if you don't see the national full-court press picking away right now: A good point guard drives through a full court press, protecting the ball, keeping her eye on the basket... and she knows exactly when to pass the ball so that the team can WIN." --Sarah Palin, announcing her resignation, July 3, 2009

"Only dead fish go with the flow." --Sarah Palin, quitting, July 3, 2009

"Letterman certainly has the right to 'joke' about whatever he wants to, and thankfully we have the right to express our reaction. This is all thanks to our U.S. military women and men putting their lives on the line for us to secure America's Right to Free Speech - in this case, may that right be used to promote equality and respect." --Sarah Palin, misunderstanding the First Amendment, June 16, 2009

"We realize that more and more Americans are starting to see the light there and understand the contrast. And we talk a lot about, OK, we're confident that we're going to win on Tuesday, so from there, the first 100 days, how are we going to kick in the plan that will get this economy back on the right track and really shore up the strategies that we need over in Iraq and Iran to win these wars?" --Sarah Palin, suggesting we are at war with Iran, FOX News interview, Nov. 1, 2008

thats three words you moron

It appears the "Palin Factor" is legit.

Nearly two-thirds of Palin's endorsements have gone on to succeed in 26 contested primary elections so far - and these victories are far-ranging throughout the country.

Palin Endorsements Tracker - The Washington Post


Contrast that to Obama's far more dismal endorsement record and fellow Democrats running away from an Obama endorsement...

Democrats up for reelection are not only running against a GOP opponent. They are running from President Obama.
The President's latest two fundraising trips put the spotlight on what will happen more and more this election season: some Democrats simply do not want to be seen with a President whose job approval rating has sunk 30 points, to 43%, since he took office. He is suffering from low ratings even in states he carried in the 2008 election.

When Obama landed in Atlanta earlier this month, former Gov. Roy Barnes, who wants his old job back, was nowhere near the airport. Barnes was campaigning in Southern Georgia, 100 miles away. His campaign manager said he did not have time to travel to Atlanta and be seen with the President. By the way, Obama's job approval Georgia is 41%.

Oh, by Leading Conservative Media. How nice!!! Shut up, Frank.

Caribou Barbie has endorsed Sharron Angle, who will lose when it counts. In fact, more than half of her endorsements have been in primaries, and those candidates now trail in the polling for the "real" vote. How is this a sign of legitimacy?

Love the avi!!!!

 

[VaYank5150]

Wow....Frank, are you now saying Caribou Barbie can't even remember TWO words???

thats three words you moron

So now, the letter "R" is a word?

 

[Woyzeck]

Ah-huh. So... what? Oooh, Sarah Palin using her celebrity status to endorse people in her party that are up for election. Wasn't Obama criticized at some point for doing something similar? Or at least being a 'celebrity?'

Ah-huh. So... what? Oooh, Sarah Palin using her celebrity status to endorse people in her party that are up for election. Wasn't Obama criticized at some point for doing something similar? Or at least being a 'celebrity?'

No. Actually, I believe he was criticized for endorsing candidates that eventually lost.
And he was not criticized for being a celebrity. He was criticized for acting like one with his frequent visits to latenight and daytime talk shows.

This is really too funny. Sinatra really stepped in it this time.

Go the link.

Palin Endorsements Tracker - The Washington Post

Click the individual 'winners' that supposedly Palin is getting credit for. Start with the 'most recent' which are highlighted.

For example, the map shows Palin endorsing Sharron Angle on AUGUST 18TH.
When was THAT primary? When did Angle win?

lolol, Palin is getting credit for a winning endorsement 2 months after the fact???!!!! There are several of those after the primary endorsements on the map.

You're a moron Sinatra.

Palin doesn't even know what the First Amendment is about.

Not sure if she knows what it is about or not.....but the babe is making money off of her comments.

Angle is a mistake.

Reid is ALSO a mistke. He is allowing his ideology cloud his judgement as the majority leader.

Not good for America.
