Sarah Palin "hand moment" captured in photo
Big Government ^ | 2/1//2010 | Andrew Marcus

There's Something About Sarah

We have been poring over our thousands of photos from the Tea Party Convention, and in so doing, we discovered the following shot among our Sarah Palin files.

Founding Bloggers photographer, Michael Kadela, didn’t know it at the time, but he had captured the exact moment Sarah Palin glanced down at her left hand, to read the note she had written there earlier.

Those among the outraged Progressive Left trampled each other in the rush to launch personal attacks against Governor Palin, calling her stupid and hypocritical for needing a hand-note in the same speaking engagement in which she criticized President Obama for his constant use of a teleprompter.

The gleeful vilification of Sarah Palin for her use of a note during her Q&A segment betrays any facade of decency or humility on the part of the Progressive Left of the Democrat Party, let alone the slightest sense of irony, given our Teleprompter-in-Chief.

As for the alleged hypocrisy of Sarah Palin, the implication is that the use of a hand-written note (as it were) during a packed ballroom speaking engagement is somehow equivalent to the inappropriateness of the President using Teleprompter-One in a classroom of 6th graders.

This implication is both false and laughable.

Has Sarah commented on this non-event?

Or, will this go in the annals of history, much like Babe Ruth calling his "shot".

The libs are obsessed with Palin. Personally, I think it is because they secretly think that their fellow liberals will vote for her, if given a chance.

"Has Sarah commented..."

The following day she was photographed with "Hi Mom" written on her palm at a rally for Rick Perry. (Talk about "Going Rogue"!)

If this is the best libs can do, it’s pretty darn pathetic and petty.

Although I’m not a big Sarah Palin fan, this nonsense over her crib notes is just plain stupidity and venality. Someone needs to clue me in to just exactly what is wrong with having a few crib notes, whether or not they are on your hand, on notecards, in the margins of a speech, etc., because I sure as heck do NOT get what the fuss is all about.

I want to hear Obama, Biden, Gibbs, and every nit-wit blogger or commentator who criticized Palin for hypocrisy give a 40 minute speech with 4 phrases totaling 6 words written on their palm for notes. We’ll get a panel of high school public speaking coaches and college-level off-topic debaters to judge the event in comparison to Palin’s 40 minute speech. Only those judged to have done better have any credence when they criticize her use of noted jotted on her palm. The rest should be jeered, laughed, or booed out of any forum where they mention the matter other than to ask apology for their former criticism or mockery.

How is this somehow worse than reading - or misreading, as the case may be - entire speeches off a teleprompter?

How is this worse than referring to a Navy corpsman as a “corpseman?”

So, according to libs, Palin is stupid because she wrote a few talking points on her hand, but Maobama is brilliant when he uses a teleprompter to talk to first graders.

And HEAT causes more snow.

And if the government takes more of our money and freedoms, we are better off.

And when Bush has a $200 billion deficit, he is insanely irresponsible, but Maobama’s 1.5 TRILLION deficit is showing wonderful leadership.

And up is down, black is white, day is night, and evil is good.

Why does ANYONE ever believe anything that ever comes out of liberal’s mouth?

Can you blame them?
An extremely good looking lady(one has to be dead not to notice her good looks) who can articulate and connect to the "Joe the Plumber" folks, understands the weary Americans, speak their language and gives D.C. the chills.

What is not to like about her...did I mentioned she is a babe?!(I hate you Todd ;{-)

PS

When did the Democrats/Progressives/Liberals had such a good looking/photogenic, intelligent contender on the national stage?
