Palin's Gaffes VS. Obama's Gaffes.

Posted on 04/15/2010 8:06:24 PM PDT by CommieCutter

Can someone tell me how many "gaffes" Palin has had besides the "I can see Russia from my house" via Saturday Night live, and the question about John McCain's "specific examples of pushing for me regulation"?

Compared to Obama, I don't see how this woman has had as many gaffes as Obama: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ap2Cg_FDRy4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5R6kVry4_c

This thread would be good if people would start listing Sotero’s very real gaffes. Let’s start.

1. “My Muslim faith”

2. “57 states”

3. “Thousands” of dead (referring to several dead in Wheat belt tornados.

4. His tire inflation solution to dependence on foreign oil.

5. His “diet” counseling solution rather than “amputation” as a way of saving money and dealing with diabetes.

6. “Because a woman chooses to cover her head does not make her less equal” as a cowardly side-step to the issue of forcing strict Mohammedan dress on women in Muslim countries.

How many am I forgetting?

“In Russia, Sarah Palin’s house can see you”

Clinging to their guns and religion?

“Clinging to their guns and religion?”

Yes! That one serves us well. It should be at the top of any list.

Notice when he said “thier” religion that it is implicit that it is not “his” religion, he has given much away. Take note that he has not chosen a church as of yet already well one year into his presidency ...

To add to the list:

7. Bowing to Emporer of Japan

8. Bowing to Saudi King

9. Bowing to Chinese dictator

10. "CorPsmen" (pronouncing the silent "P")

11. "I bowl like I was in the Special Olympics"

12. "Cops acted stupidly" (hat tip to lonestar)

13. Mispronouncing the baseball field

Great! How could I forget “Corpse-man”? That was classic.

Yeah, and can you IMAGINE the hoopla that would have happened if Bush or Palin had made such a brain-dead gaffe? They crucified Dan Quayle over a correct alternative spelling to "potato," for crying out loud! But in order for them to be serious gaffes, they must first and foremost be uttered by a Republican. Democrats can say things like "57 states" and "corPsmen" and any mention of those gaffes is mere pettiness by virtue of their political affiliation.

I am SO DISGUSTED with the American news media. It seems the majority of mainstream so-called "journalists" are frauds with zero honor.

"...can you IMAGINE the hoopla that would have happened if Bush or Palin had made such a brain-dead gaffe?..." Sarah has done a great job and I especially hate the likes of Katie Couric and company passing themselves off as more intellectual than thou. In a real debate Sarah would shine over her detractors and she would destroy Obozo. Sarah Palin

“CorPsmen” (pronouncing the silent “P”)

I can’t blame him for that. That’s 1 of those words that irks the hell out of me. But yes, I guess he needs to suppress it for public hearing. In private, do it all you want....

“How can you be so damned dull & thick-headed. You repeat the thoroughy debunked lie about “I can see Russia from my house.” Leave the posting to the grown ups.”

Gosh, you’re rude...especially when the poster was clear they were NOT referring to the Russia thing....sheesh...

I know it was at your expense, but this was the funniest thread I have read in a while.

It should be under political/humor...if it’s not already...

“Every resourceful leftist character assassin can now truthfully quote Commie Cutter leaving out “Via Saturday Night Live” or including it if they want,(remember, Sarah appeared on SNL), allowing the reader to assume Sarah said it.”

Oh my God...THEY COULD DO THAT ANYWAYS....no matter what he/she said. They could take something perfectly fine and twist it....just b/c a bunch of people didn’t slow down and READ, doesn’t mean it needs to be turned on the poster...

That is patently false, I specified "truthfully".

Don't shout at me, you need to expend your energy learning to read instead of advising others to do so.

I'll be deciding what I need to turn on the poster, not you, assuming I turned anything on a poster.

However, with friends like Commie Cutter, Sarah Palin doesn't need enemies. You should have investigated his inane rationalization for careless use of wording, and his infantile You Tube link.

Words have power and meaning, careless use of them does no good.

Thank you for your interest, but your services are not required.

Not meaning to shout...the caps were for emphasis...I do not have the html coding prowess as others, so I resort to caps....that is my bad...

What do I need to learn to read??? What did I misread?? I read the poster’s article and didn’t freak out like others who didn’t pay attention to what they were doing.

And wait...you can talk to someone else condenscendingly, but when someone corrects you, you get all miffed....chill out.....

I did note the poster’s reasons for wording it the way they did.....before I responded to you...but I just don’t think we have to tip toe around what some stupid liberal may come on here and copy and paste that we said....I could care less....that’s the problem with conservatives...we’ve been too cowardly “careful” for too long....

Just because some Palin freaks didn’t read the whole post, doesn’t make it the poster’s fault.

There. Done.

I still can not believe that the Rev Wright, anti Christian Church, was not enough to do him in?? Attending that church for 20 years, Michele possibly even longer?

You dream of stuff like this happening to your opponent! To have it placed in your lap, and then deciding to not use it??? Incredible!!

In 2012 the Rev Wright stuff should be a big part of the campaign against Obama. We can say, yes he does share Rev Wright`s Views. We gotta use it this time, it defines who he is, a anti Christian something or other.
