Palin explains 'blood libel' comment

[BonMallari]

at one time I was a Palin fan....even voted for her/ McCain, but since I actually started to listen what she has to say and quit staring at her on the tube, she just doesnt make sense...I wish I knew who the puppet master behind her is, it cant be her husband,but the party machine behind her is part of what is wrong in this country...they continue to throw her out there like a box of laundry soap and ask you to believe that your clothes will smell fresher and be brighter if you just buy into the deal

I keep thinking the next gaffe will be the deal breaker, but so far she has seemed to escape...but sooner or later, she will trip over her on tongue and the left will swoop in and bury her into relative obscurity

I see she is doing interviews for Faux News and not any main stream news interviews. Could it be that she is afraid she will be asked any hard questions like "what newspapers and magazines do you read."

During their interview Monday, Katie Couric asked Sarah Palin what newspapers and magazines she read to inform her worldview before being tapped as John McCain's Vice Presidential running mate. And Tuesday on the "CBS Evening News," Palin's answer was revealed: "most of them," "all of 'em," and "any of 'em."
Palin would not, or could not, name a specific news source, saying only, "I have a vast variety of sources where we get our news too. Alaska isn't a foreign country, where, it's kind of suggested and it seems like, 'Wow, how could you keep in touch with what the rest of Washington, D.C. may be thinking and doing when you live up there in Alaska?' Believe me, Alaska is like a microcosm of America."

I think the sad reality is Roger, that she is far too like the vast majority of Americans.....and doesn't ready ANY magazine. Perhaps that's why she is so wildly popular with many, I don't know.

I'm a conservative who votes pretty heavily to the right side of the aisle, but I don't get the fascination with her. Just my $.02.

Yep, I voted for her ( and McCain ). Regrets of course now. And I agree we have another puppet. Marketing has taken over USA politics it seems. Makes this old lady want to 'holler' .......... "Where's the beef ?"

does falsey mean anything to you. Your hatered of the right amazes me. But i forgot your not a leftie N ow go and watch messnbc to get all your facts right.

She wears flalseys? I did not know that.

[M&K's Retrievers]

I don't know what I get a bigger kick out of.....

The things that come out of her mouth....

Or people defending those things!

They're both entertaining. God, I hope she sticks around!

Why do you care? You are not going to cast your "independent" vote for her (and I really hope you don't get the chance) nor any other republican. You just like to be critical of her opinion while offering nothing of substance.

Rush Limbaugh says the libs will tell you who they are most afraid of by who they spend the most time and energy attacking. In this case it's Palin. She has them all "wee wee'd up" to quote our clean , articulate president. They practically foam at the mouth just thinking about her. It's actually pretty amusing. Get used to Libs, you have not been able to run her off yet, she's tougher than you are...

Bill , I have to respectfully disagree with you...Palin is what we call here in Vegas "a false favorite" its a trick the sportsbooks use when the odds are not in their favor and they want action on the opposing side, so they prop up a "false favorite" and all the uneducated bettors buy into the hype and bet that side which is obviously a loser from the start...

Palin is the easiest candidate to beat, she has enough gaffes and her resume has more holes than a blown pattern of Black Cloud ammo...the Dems prop her up and get the Rep to take the bait and nominate her and when its to late to change, BHO get reelected...in lots of ways the Republicans bit once when they nominated McCain/Palin...they thought the threat was Hillary so they went Republican Lite and got trounced...

the Tea Party here in NV got snookered the same way when Ind voters came out for Angle in the primary and gave her a false lead only to get trounced on election day...

basically its good old fashioned sanbagging

I don't think she will run. Why would she put herself and her family through the kind of attacks they would have to weather? Comedians already attack her daughters... it's just nuts. I hope she just keeps making money and driving the left nuts, which isn't hard to do...and laughing all the way to the bank. I heard she made something like 15 million last year. Not bad... I could put up with a lot of left wing vitriol for that kind of dough.

Interesting. That's just about what they say Gary Dahl made in 6 months selling pet rocks. Just goes to show you, some people will buy anything.

I said I find her entertaining. So do many other Americans, or she wouldn't constantly be in the news. And doesn't SHE just "offer her opinion while offering nothing of substance?"
Granted, I don't fill out a 150k Neiman Marcus leather skirt like she does!
