  1. Well Doug, we know one thing. Sarah drives you Obabots crazy, and for that I am thankfull.
    But, basically, we also know you think like the teleprompter, mindlessly, and it wouldn’t make a tinkers damn to you who ran against Obama it’s your job to ridicule them.
    May I make a suggestion ? Go borrow a book from a Republican, try Homage to Catalonia.

  2. Palin refers to these basic and simple principles daily; she doesn’t need a mnemonic device for them.
    ET, you are a silly old fool, aren’t you?
    If that were true, than why would she write them
    on her hand? One would expect her to
    be able to speak off the cuff,
    but she can’t, so what does that tell you?
    There is absolutely no there there.
    Run, Sarah, by all means, run.

  3. Of course it was a ploy to get the unthinking anti-Palin MSM to run with something that every normal person would then realize was a thumb in the eye of his Obamaness and a mocking of TOTUS, his constant companion.
    Not as elegant as the Brits who presented the “O” with a carved wooden pen holder for his desk made from the timber of one of their 19th century Arabian Sea anti-slavery patrol warships that probably put quite a crimp in his Arab ancestor’s “family business.”

  4. Sarah drives the Obamabots like pill head and pea brained Doug crazy,a very short trip I might add,makes for a great morning,idiot leftards.

  5. phil – I use logic and empirical evidence to arrive at my conclusion.
    The empirical evidence is that the basic principles of the conservative movement and that of the Tea Party are: tax cuts, limited govt, free market economy, internal energy production and defense. These principles have been in all of Palin’s speeches for over a year. So, the evidence then moves to logic. Both inductive and propositional logic.
    IF all her many speeches over a reasonable time span have included these basic axioms, THEN, she knows these axioms without requiring a mnemonic device.
    As to why those words are on her palm, I have no idea, but mnemonic usage isn’t one of them.
    As to why the left froths about Palin, well, I understand that very well. It’s called elitist gentrism – the modern day elite are clones of the 18th c. idle rich, the landed gentry. Their disdain for ‘those in trade’ is wellknown. All the left show such disdain – including Obama who says anyone who makes money in trade is ‘greedy’ and who whines about the masses who criticize him, Pelosi who says anyone who criticizes is unAmerican..and the various blogs that rant against Palin and against the ‘masses’ who don’t accept the Left as Gentry.

  6. Think the silly cry babies about this are not um, very worldly.
    Obviously they’ve never used a roller ball pen.
    Or heard of a fine tip ‘marker’.
    This whole thing with the
    “wha wha wha … she has an ink stained hand or WORDS (oh no, you mean actual words?!) and they are… are written on her hand and WE HAVE THE EVIDENCE IN PICTURES”, is just a typical retarded response from the left.
    I use ‘retard-ed’ appropriately.
    I’ve never called or referred to anyone with mental or physical disabilities with this label and never will.
    Not do I hear it being used like that in everyday life, as I’d be on their ass and hard.
    I defend my right to this word.
    I’ve never associated this word exclusively with the mentally disabled but have and will continue to use it where appropriate.
    Those who object, I’m sorry, but you are responsible for your own feelings, please don’t dictate to me about how to think like deciding my choice of an appropriate words to use.
    People use “loony”, “crazy”, “wack jobs” and etc. on the mental ill these days, are those words to be banned as well in years to come?
    Watched a (real)police program and those were the words they used to described an emotional volatile person that they had to detain to protect that person from themselves and others.

  7. And yet this considered cool and not “Hayseed” when Chris Martin, lead singer for Coldplay, did it.

    I am not a Palin for President person, been fooled once by a celebrity President (the current one). But I find the she drives the left positively batty…particularly Sullivan…so its fun to watch. I dont think she’ll run, but she attract so much attention and fire from the Dems that they would look foolish attacking anyone else.

  8. “Eh, folks are missing the point here. If all I needed as prompts for a 45 minute speech were 6 words, I’d write them on my hand, too.”
    I was under the impression that the three notes were not prompts for her speech. They were prompts for a pre-screened Q&A question regarding the top three things needed to be done when Republicans regain control of the U.S. House and Senate.
    I don’t get why this is a story. I don’t even know what the story is – the facts change from source to source. And I don’t know why I’m wasting my time reading about this because it just irritates me how seriously liberals and conservatives are taking this.

  9. Personally I prefer to tie a string around my finger to remember things. In this case, it would be 6 different coloured strings… so perhaps the palm pilot is a good idea.
    Could you imagine if Sarah had someone’s “digits” on her palm? That would really have made a stir.
    I suspect terrorists around the world are working to hijack the teleprompter to embarrass the Owe.
    BTW, I really enjoyed the healthcare pitch during the Super Bowl pre-game show. NOT! Where the hell is simu-casting when you need it? I could have used that horrendous repetitive Olympic commercial at that time.
    “Do you Believe?” Yes, I believe if I had a gun I might have done the Kurt Cobain yesterday.

  10. As to why those words are on her palm, I have no idea, but mnemonic usage isn’t one of them.
    Thanks for the laugh. That was a real knee slapper.
    But can’t you figure it out using your awesome
    powers of inductive and propositional logic?
    And if it wasn’t a mnemonic cheat device, why did she have to look at her palm
    when answering a question directly related to what was written on her palm?

  11. BTW, I love her response with “hi mom”. Very clever and she has now created something else people will be watching her for.

  12. So I just had to cruise over to democratic underground and see what they were saying. They are making fun of her for not being able to remember her lines!! 6 words for a 45 min speach and they go apoplectic. Not a single word about Zero though, if his teleprompter quits for a second he turns into a 17 year old geek trying to ask out the lead cheerleader.
    Their hypocrisy knows no bounds.
    Amazing

  13. Simplest explanation is she just wanted to make sure she wasn’t going to forget anything … like a shopping list for routine groceries.
    But I agree with manotick 11:09, that this was a direct shot at the O. Writing 6 words on her hand highlights her speaking skills much more effectively than anything (including nothing).

  14. “Except for the fact that they were prompts for a pre-screened softball question asking her to list 3 top priorities of a conservative congress.”
    That’s not a fact, it’s your assumption.
    Question — am I the only one who hears the “DING!” when Obama’s head swings from one of his brains to the other?

  15. Marshal McLuhan is right on this one. The medium is the message, Palin’s palm beats a teleprompter hands down.
    And the hot versus cool media? Palin’s hot kicks Obama’s cool.

  16. If all I needed as prompts for a 45 minute speech were 6 words, I’d write them on my hand, too.
    Notwithstanding the fact that the six words were to aid in clumsily garbling an answer to a scripted question, you forgot to mention, Kate, or didn’t know, that Palin read her 45 minute speech from a big stack of notes she carried to the lectern.

  17. It amazes me that obozo supporters aren’t smart enough to see their criticism of a few words on her palm serves to remind people of obozo’s pathetic dependence on the teleprompter (ex. “corpseman”). The harvard lecturer and master communicator can’t speak extemporaneously on any topic without screwing up – a few words on his palm wouldn’t help him.

  18. Nurses must all be hicks. We write everything from blood pressures to doctors’ orders on our hands. We call it “nursing stationery.”

    Right. The question was
    “When we have a conservative house and a conservative senate, what do you think are the top three things that have to be done?”.
    She looked down & read her answer “Energy, Budget Tax Cuts, Lift American spirits”,
    just as she had read her whole speech —
    Analog Teleprompter

  20. phil – Palin did not read her speech as does Obama word for word. Her script cards were only a handful – and act as key issues to cover, in order, in the speech. Obama can’t handle talking without the word for word guidance of his teleprompter. Anything else disintegrates into his famous ‘ahs’, and ‘uhs’ or a mash of misinformation.
    As for your opinion that Wallace’s question was pre-screened – that’s your assumption. No proof. Equally, your view that it was ‘softball’ remains your view.
    As you are obviously an elitist gentry type with deep scorn and derision for the American people (teabaggers according to you), why don’t you just admit to this bias and dash off for your latte and seminar?

  21. You have to wonder about what motives animate someone like phil.
    To try to manufacture something out of as innocuous act as putting a few words on one’s hand as reminders for a speech.
    I’ve done a fair amount of public speaking, and sometimes I’ve used index cards just to remind me of points that I will then deal with extemporaneously.
    Phil has some extremely odd propensity for trying to amplify the smallest device into a criticism.
    I think this says more about phil than anything else.

  22. I’ve figured it out. Phil works for the CBC.
    An hour ago, while trying to find out something about a breaking news story, I was unfortunate enough to hear a few minutes of two CBC females tearing apart Sarah.
    Wonder if Phil’s mouth has that same little twist while he’s typing?

  23. The Prize goes to Manotick 11:09 :
    … But no one yet has got the message…a message that was intended for only one person. Sarah, my friends, has a tremendous sence of humour…with a nice touch of sarcasm thrown in. And that hand thing was a clear personal shot across the bow at Obama. And he knows it. He saw that and must have riled. Instead of 6000 words on a teleprompter…she only needs a “handful.

  24. while telling the TEA Partiers that they also don’t need a “charismatic” leader who leads from a TelePrompter, —
    _______________
    Sarah Palin then looked down at her HAND to answer the next question OR to remind herself to ELIVATE AMERICAN SPIRITS!
    This is a JOKE, right? Palin is a JOKE.
    How can the bar be set so low? If you don’t like Obama, Ok but that is not an excuse to embrace this hapless dolt, Palin.

  25. The hapless dolt Reagan was embraced, Deo … for 8 years and ended up being the most popular US president in history … brace yourself Deo, the “dolt” has only just begun.

  26. Yes,that’s it,everyone dislikes Obama,nothing to do with his Marxist ideology,his spendthrift ways,his backroom deals,his Chicago thug style politics,his covering up of his scholastic and religious background….just let me know when to stop.

  27. deo – it’s elevate. Not elivate. Tsk tsk.
    You also don’t know whether she looked down at her hand or looked down at something else or needed reminding or..anything. Speculation is useless.
    On the other hand, we know when watching Obama’s head swivel that he’s not looking at his audience to connect to them; he’s connecting to his teleprompters. They are his only reality.
    When he’s without his teleprompters, as I noted in the youtube above, in the interview with Diane Sawyer on jobs, he can’t say one, not even one, articulate word.

  28. I sometimes write important notes on my hand if I need to really remember something. Not the best form but it gets the job done. It took six words scrawled on her hand to deliver yet another knock-out speech. Bravo, I say.
    As for TOTUS, not so.

  29. She didn’t use the notes scribbled on her hands for the speech she gave people! How is everyone missing the facts of what happened? If you people actually watched her speech, you could see that she had full notes on the podium and she was flipping through them during the speech. This is totally fine and almost everyone does it (it’s nearly impossible to memorize a 45 minute speech). Some people use notes, some people (like Obama) use a teleprompter.
    BUT what makes this story so ridiculous is that she had the notes FOR THE Q&A PART after the speech! You can see her glance at her hand when she is asked what her priorities would be as President. That is the batty part! She can’t even remember what her priorities would be…. and people think she is fit to be President? Unbelievable! Can’t wait to hear all of the late-night jokes on this one!

  30. Sorry, but for 100 grand Palin should be able to remember 1. TAXES 2. ELEVATE the crowd & 3. TODD, EMPTY THE DISHWASHER.
    Who crosses out stuff on their hand???
    Obama could become a used car salesman next week, it doesn’t make Palin ANY brighter. Comparisons are useless. I guess she better then having a lit cigar up your noses but just marginally.
    Hey, but GOOD LUCK with all that. I am just sayin….
    Don’t talk about me when I’m gone….your candidate is an idiot. oh, ALSO TOO, comparisons to Reagan are insulting to Reagan, the guy is dead,leave him alone.

  31. More trouble in doggie land.
    Rep Murtha is with his ancestors…..dead….and even ACORN can’t use his vote…..
    That “Hi Mom” thingy is just absolutely brilliant…..Deo is dribbling on his bib.

  32. Look for giant styrofoam hands with “Hi Mom” at the next tea party.Deo…Your guy just used a dead woman to push his health care B.S.,forget about the fact that he didn’t know or remember her name,the left are always such hypocrites.

  33. I don’t know for sure that Palin is doing the right thing, but she sure is p*ss*ng off the right people. That’s always a good sign.

  34. I’ve figured it out. Phil works for the CBC.
    Not so fast, gellen; I think you’re on shaky ground, here. Considering the bile of the philltroll’s posts, he may well be – gasp! – another disgruntled leftist hurling insults from momma’s basement. Barring that, government employ – assuredly ill-performed and public sector union protected – is entirely feasible. In this case, CBC employment would fit.
    How about it, phil? ‘Fess up: inquiring minds want to know.

  35. In Sarah’s short stint as the Alaskan Governor she kicked the corruptocrats to the curb, many from her own party. She took on Exxon and Exxon blinked. She got the pipeline deal done and she shredded a lot of Washington pork. Not bad for a complete idiot eh philly?
    Meanwhile, back at the WH, Obama is still blaming Bush. A progressive man’s man.

  36. Marko you really don’t think your true statements to impress Phil and Co do you? Sarah actually got something done rather than just sit and whine about it. Phil and Co don’t do action. Phil and Co do whining.

  37. Sarah wrote “Hi Mom!” on her hand today? OMG, that’s the BOMB, baby! That’s frickin’ brilliance.
    Half of Limbaugh’s AND Hannity’s show today was pounding the idiot MSM over this writing on the hand thing, Palin just slips the knife in like it was nothing. Sweet!
    BTW, why are we feeding trolls? If you ignore it, it will go away.

  38. “Obama could become a used car salesman next week, it doesn’t make Palin ANY brighter. Comparisons are useless. I guess she better then having a lit cigar up your noses but just marginally.”
    Ummm, actually, no he couldn’t. Because in order to be a used car salesman you actually need some skills.
    Unless, of course, he didn’t have to do anything.
    Come to think of it ,maybe he could be.
