"I don't care that Palin wrote notes on her palm. I think it's curious (and maybe a little clueless) that she did it before making a speech, which was on typed out on paper and placed on a lectern right in front of her, in which she ridiculed Obama for using a teleprompter and then thought that nobody would photograph and point out that, Hey, she's got notes written on her hand!"
You say you "don't care" to give yourself permission to call Palin "clueless" in the next sentence...can we get a little more "catty" than that?
Where has it been written that she "thought nobody would photograph" and point out the hand notes. She didn't care if you saw her hand notes...public speakers always make extra notes on last minute points they have while waiting in the wings, whether they write them in the margins of the speech or in their palms, is immaterial.
Here, you write on this board and can't decide in the context of two sentences whether or not it bothered you for her to use this method, yet she was going out to speak to millions of people for 45 minutes, rarely looking down at her speech, and carried it off like a pro...maybe you should walk a mile in her shoes before you start "meowing".
Sarah is a smart woman who is out there making a difference, and the only thing you have accomplished here is to make fun of the difference she is making. And you call her "clueless".
But, those who can't always try to ridicule those who can.

Also, I don't have to give myself permission for anything. I still find the Q&A palm-inking, in the context of the speech she just gave, curious. So what? I find a lot of what people do curious.
