CNN: Harry Reid Calls Sarah Palin "Shrill"
CNN | 9/3/08

Posted on 09/03/2008 9:25:16 PM PDT by Williams

CNN double checked with its reporter and confirmed that Reid meant Palin personally, everyone on the CNN panel had to admit this term is never used against men and that Reid's remark is a mistake that can help validate Palin's attacks on the democrats.

Priceless, they also said Reid hates McCain and Reid played right into the republicans' hands. They said Reid was upset last night too. Guess he thinks only the left should have a political convention.

CNN just came back from the break and is still covering this story. Lol now Paul Begala is saying only calling Sarah a b***h would be bad. Campbell Brown of all people is beating Begala up!

Wow. Just wow. I want each of my daughters to grow up to be just like her.

I really hope that McCain decides to serve only one term, so that I can vote for Sarah Palin for President in 2012.

The greatest measure of how well she did tonight will be the level of vitriol that will be directed against her tomorrow and in the coming days. The liberals believe that Palin is the most evil Republican and the greatest threat to their liberal causes since Reagan.

The slime that they have flung so far is nothing compared to what is going to come. The Democrats and the MSM wing of the Democrat party are going to be frantic tomorrow. They will look like a pool of starving piranhas.

I love the smell of liberal flop sweat in the morning. It smells like ... Victory!

Harry you are so predictable. On Freepers today I read someone’s remark that the word shrill would be used.
LOL...way to go Harry...you did not disappoint us.
You however are the one that is shrill. Sorry CNN I just said it about a man.

LOL! The Democrats lost the election tonight. They're reduced to playing defense and they're in a state of complete shock and panic. They don't know just what hit 'em. Its like the ghost of The Gipper stalking the scene. Dingy Harry coming unhinged and calling Sarah, "shrill?" Priceless! I just love the smell of the Democrat meltdown.

Shrill?? What a stupid idiot!! What was ‘shrill’ about it - Hitlery is shrill when she talks. Sarah was calm, steady and poised. Dimwit doesn’t know what it means then.

Harry Reid’s comment is going to grow in the media echo chamber and for some women, that WILL be the last straw. Trust me on this one. Calling a woman, any woman “Shrill” is one of the big taboos. It’s the ultimate dismissive, sexist comment and it will not be forgotten.

Hillary's voice sounds like a shovel scraping a rock.

Everyone has heard it. Everyone knows it.

But his negatives are for Palin. What a freak.

“The liberals believe that Palin is the most evil Republican and the greatest threat to their liberal causes since Reagan. “

And for once the libs got something right. How about 2009 as the start of 24 years of Palin and Jindal in the White House.

Actually for some reason, Dana Bash couldn't bring herself to use the word "hate". She said Reid "didn't like" McCain but that he had used a different word.

This media is full of frauds and operatives.

Reid = sexist pig!

I was so glad she mentioned him by name and trashed him. He truly is one of the most divisive, creepy, and unappealing leaders (and I use the term lightly) on the scene today.

I was also thrilled when Romney, I think it was, said there has never been a day in our lives when we were not proud of America! Excellent. A shot at Michelle no doubt. I suppose they will be screaming racism over that.

That is one thing I kind of hoped to hear from Palin (or McCain) but know it is very unlikely. I would love to hear one major speaker at this convention say “we are tired of being called racist for opposing Obama!”

Gee, Harry Reid calling Palin “shrill”.

If I were her, I’d call him a “shill” or “mentally ill” or a “pill.”

If it were me, I’d call him a “disgrace”, a “fraud”, a “crook in training”, a “cronyist”, a “fool”, and a “traitor to America”, but, then again, that’s only me.

Reid is just mad because Palin nailed his ass to the wall:

Harry Reid, the Majority Leader of the current do-nothing Senate, not long ago summed up his feelings about our nominee. He said, quote, “I can’t stand John McCain.” Ladies and gentlemen, perhaps no accolade we hear this week is better proof that we’ve chosen the right man. Clearly what the Majority Leader was driving at is that he can’t stand up to John McCain. That is only one more reason to take the maverick of the Senate and put him in the White House.

I think these poor saps thought they could chase Sarah off of the ticket. They would have a better chance of getting Michael Phelps to hand over all of his gold medals. You are only going to get your butt kicked folks.

This is her party now. Conservatism is back ! The next Reagan is here.

Did Harry Reid say that before or after he pi$$ed his pants ?

This is just too priceless!!! Has Harry Reid ever heard his OWN voice played back?? Irritating beyond belief, both the intonation and the intent behind it.

And Pelosi? And the rest of the rogues’ gallery, too numerous to name at this late hour.

The left is truly sputtering and quaking in their boots. GO, McCain/Palin!!!

True dat.

BUT

If McCain expects to sell this ‘change’ deal we better hear specifics tomorrow night. It’s a fantastic political tack but he can’t get away from the FACT that he is a pubbie and the pubbies have blown it out their ass big time for six years.

He’s got to effectively show us he is against that crowd ... always fought them ... AND has some fantastic programs to roll back the corruption the pubbies have wallowed in for the past several years.

Its a daunting task. He’s made a good start but we need s p e c i f i c s!!!

The Republican base will now be highly energized.

Biden has become irrelevant.

Sarah’s “star power” may soon exceed Obama’s. She is Margaret Thatcher, Sarah Connor and Princess Diana, all in one package.

The election is now McCain’s to lose.

If she's a female Ronald Reagan, I think the election was won on this:

“But here’s a little news flash for all those reporters and commentators: I’m not going to Washington to seek their good opinion — I’m going to Washington to serve the people of this country.”

A grand slam at the MSM and the liberal elites who make the rules in this country. Sarah took their arrogance and threw it right back in their face - with good humor and a smile. Only Reagan had that kind of talent!
