NBC News Reporter Andrea Mitchell Joins DNC Attack on Palin over Hand-Gate
Monday, February 8, 2010 | Kristinn

Posted on 02/08/2010 7:34:24 AM PST by kristinn

Andrea Mitchell, identified by NBC News as the network's Chief Foreign Affairs Correspondent, this morning joined in the attacks on former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin over the 2008 Republican party's vice-presidential nominee's use of notes written on her hand during an appearance at the Tea Party Nation convention in Nashville this past weekend.

Appearing on MSNBC's the Daily Rundown, Mitchell lampooned Palin by holding up her hand with scribbling on her palm while castigating Palin for criticizing Barack Obama for his reliance on TelePrompTers.

Co-host Chuck Todd, who can usually be found on his knees in front of Obama, surprisingly tried to defend Palin by saying, "We've all done notes."

Mitchell was having none of that, though and insisted this was a capital political offense.

attacked yesterday by Democratic National Committee spokesman Hari Sevugan for having the words, "Energy, Tax Cuts, Lift American Spirits" written on the palm of her left hand during her Tea Party appearance.

Palin responded to her liberal critics yesterday by writing "Hi Mom!" on her left palm during a campaign stop for Texas Governor Rick Perry's reelection bid.

You must be kidding. Do you actually believe the Lamestream Media is going to cover for ANY Republican presidential candidate, or say ANYTHING nice or truthful about ANY GOP hopeful?

There are always those here who won’t be happy with anyone for a candidate unless it’s themselves.

This should backfire royally to any clear thinking person. She posted three items she wanted to cover and they're calling her hypocritical for turning around and then insulting Obama for using a teleprompter.

We do indeed live in parallel universes if they can compare the two with a straight face and MSNBC has been doing just that non stop all day.

I saw a video of these guys on pMSNBC. It was jr. High humor. It was like listening to Randi Rhodes on Air America.

Nobody cares what they say, if the numbers mean anything...

Are you for real? Holy Mackerel what a load of nonsense.

I'm totally for real when it comes to the Pelosi types on the left. I firmly believe that many of these post-menopause females find themselves in emotional states that are out of wack. It amplifies their already disfunctional minds and they do the strangest things. Their insanity is made worse by their physical issues related to hormonal imbalance.

These LEFTARD pigs lack the I.Q. necessary to be intelligent critics of Palin’s speech yesterday, so this is the best they can come up.

Is it a coincidence that the video caption suggests (subliminally?): "Palin on Trial," and "Palin Absurd"?

Now that worked! Like Rush said, “The best way to fight absurdity is by being absurd.”
