I went to u tube to view the ‘poem’ ….and while I was there, I replayed some of those interviews (she called them ‘gotcha’ questions) last year ….she is amazingly inept and for people to seriously speak about her and presidential possibilities in even the remotest sense is , by far, the most frightening thing to happen to this planet since the dinosaurs looked up in the sky and saw that big astroid come out of the sky….. they did not know but they sensed …that this is the end

..admit it,people,reporters used attack methods on poor sarah…imagine.asking her what magazines she read?That was like Jesus asking the chief preists and the scribes:’Was the baptism of John from heaven or from men?’ If she said Time,they would call her a Liberal.If they said Sports Illustrated,fluffy.People-uneducated.Did they ask Barack this question?No.
People hate sarah because she shoots wolves from the sky and says she can see Russia fom her house.It was plain from the start that that was just a euphemism.You know,like,’from the top of the Empire State Building I could see my house in Cleveland.Stuff like that.
I mean these weren’t as bad of moments as, ‘the bombing of Russia will start in five minutes’ or ‘that depends on what the definition of of IS is.’ are they?
And these were quotes from smart presidents…

Reporters attacked her because she was an easy mark. Like wolves attacking the weak member of the heard.

I had never heard of Palin b4 mccain picked her to the VP nom. She was just “the hot Gov from AK”. She wanted to be a heartbeat away from the Presidency, a 73 yr old heart that has had cancer 3x’s?
comparing her to Obama’s scruntiny is ridiculous. He went to Harvard and was on the Harvard law review, Editor I believe. She was a complete unknown to the American people. How else are we suppose to get to know her if we can’t ask questions above a 3rd grade level? You Betcha!!

So, in other words, we should put all presidential and vice-presidential candidates on “Smarter than a Fifth Grader”. I love it! I can see it now, 2012 and Obama and Palin face off next to Jeff Foxworthy. I’d watch that over any debate the news channels can come up with!

Notice that GT does not let us see Palin’s eyes. Sarah herself does her best to conceal them behind spectacles that make her look intelligent. Her earlier pictures without glasses, such as those taken when she was in college, show the eyes of a stupid wild animal. Her person seen close up must be frightening.

Notice that the GOP doesn’t even mention any other of their females? No Bachmann, Rice, etc…. Guess they don’t look like eye candy.

Almost - Barack Obama was appointed the first black President of the Harvard law Review in 1990. This post is generally regarded as the top student at Harvard. There are a number of Harvard Law Review Alumni on the Supreme Court - Stephen Breyer served as Articles Editor, Ruth Bader Ginsburg served as editor, John G. Roberts, Jr. served as Managing Editor, Antonin Scalia served as Notes Editor. But none of these, including the current Chief Justice, served as President, so there is an argument to be made that President Obama is smarter (or at least ranked higher as a Harvard Law student) than any of the Supreme Court Justices.
Sarah Palin, between 1982 and 1987, attended Hawaii Pacific University, North Idaho College, University of Idaho, Matanuska-Susitna College, and University of Idaho a second time before receiving her Bachelor’s degree in Communications with an emphasis in Journalism.
I mean, I’m just sayin’…

If she can’t go head to head with Katie Couric, then how would she fare with the heads of state that she would have to deal with as president or vice president?
bradwilliams almost 15 years ago
She had an emphasis in journalism and whines about how the press treats her? Did she attend any classes?

Remember Ms Palin left each of those universities better off than when she was there.
