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.

Hey Mrs. Greenspan, how many speeches to you give without notes? How much of what comes out of your mouth is simply what the teleprompter tells you to say?

Sarah has learned much.

I agree, I’m just pointing out, they mock her for hand notes when the bobblehead in cheif they try to defend as smart can’t function without reading every word, literally and often improperly.

It shows utter stupidity on Palin’s Cacique's part, especially when they he or she will take the smallest thing and use it against you Palin.

There. Fixed it.

Here's another cute one:

And a bonus:

The sad thing is that if they found something real on Governor Palin, no one sane would believe them. Apparently, the socialists were too busy reading "Heather has Two Mommies" to learn from the classics:

The good thing is that Sarah Palin looks like the real thing. We don't have to count on Palin's words to know what she thinks on the inside; we can see from her actions that she is genuinely pro-life, pro-Second Amendment, and pro-America.

Okay, bright eyes, let’s see if the president can get through a speech...a sentence...with nothing more than whatever crib notes he can legibly fit on the palm of his hand.

Good luck with that.

Why is it so difficult to support a person that is just trying to get this country back to it’s roots?

For the life of me, I can not understand where you people on the right find room to deflate the notion that the common person, with pure intent, could not possibly be good for our country.

Andrea Mitchell is another post monthly cycle hag who only finds personal physical pleasure screwing with other peoples lives. She is not attractive compared to Palin and recently got dissed by Palin at an event. This makes her crazy.

Mitchell, like Pelosi, Boxer, Clinton etc. is not a happy camper. Her life sucks because her woman parts no longer function. I’ve seen this type of woman over and over. They hit menopause and become total $hitheads. They become disgusting shrews who cannot find any pleasure within themselves. Since they are generically liberal nutcases in the first place the physical situation they find themselves in during menopause makes them even more insane.

We should not let women in this condition anywhere near any position of power. Or, simply not pay attention to them. Except for the suprt nutcases like Pelosi who will burn your money like there is no tomorrow on military jets, etc. because it makes her feel good because people admire her for being able to keep them in comfort.

As far as “crib sheets”? Ronald Reagan was one of the first people in the country who got contacts. He would remove one contact while giving speeches so he could read his cards that had his notes on them. He wrote most of his own stuff and apparently now we see that Palin does too. They are people of their own mind. Unlike Obama, who like Will Hunting in the movie Good Will Hunting never has had any original ideas unless he read it in a book or elsewhere. Unfortunately, Obama is not a genius. Not even close. If he was he could stand up and speak on his own.
