Did you hear that Governor Palin is stupid? Well, if you watch TV, listen to the radio, or read any news outlet you can't help but find the lefties there claiming in unison that she is the dumbest woman to appear on the scene since Goldie Hawn made her chops as the blonde ditz on 1960's TV. And, heck it's gotta be true. Why, even her SAT scores prove it! Except that the "proof" of that is an Internet hoax that fooled Wonkette, the DailyKos and a blue million nutrooter sites. But, who cares? As long as it makes Palin look bad, we're golden, baby! Truth-schmooth, right?
On October 10, blogger Dawn Eden found that a posted image of hers had been stolen, then altered, and then posted everywhere as "proof" that Sarah Palin is stupid. Apparently, the biggest stir was created by the tabloid site Gawker.com on its "Assignment Desk" section.
Originally, Gawker wondered if the image presented as Palin's SAT scores was real and posited that it was believable. Later in the day, however, one of their own site commentors effectively proved it an obvious fake. But not before it fooled Wonkette and the DailyKos and a score of other nutrooter sites...

Palin’s combined scores in verbal (700) and math (640) (total 1340) put her ahead of Bush, Gore, Kerry, and Bradley. Bill Bradley, of course, was the much vaunted “genius” who went to Princeton and, like Bill Clinton, got a Rhodes scholarship. Some idiot on a leftist forum tried to make the case, with no evidence but his own prejudices, that her I.Q. was about or under 110. To get a score as good as she got reveals an I.Q. in the 120-130 category.
Palin is getting “quayled” right before our eyes. The Dan Quayle destruction in the 90’s the final straw that proved to me once and for all that the media was overtly shaping public opinion against good, honest Republican candidates.
Foolish men and women fell wholeheartedly for the Quayle-is-an-idiot mantra. History repeats itself, unfortunately.
Re: Quale, yes I think you’re right, Carlucci. That was mild compared to what they’ve done to Palin, isn’t it? It’s sinful.
