I really have to ask, as I do everyone who trolls this site, what do you get out of it?

I mean, seriously, wouldn’t you be happier at any of the thousands of sites where people rail about “fundies” and “the patriarchy” and “neocons”? Because that’s all you seem to do.

And Biden, whom you’ve never deigned to criticize is demonstrably dumber than Palin, but the media insists on telling us how brilliant he is.

Biden constantly puts his foot in his mouth. Most definitely. However, the man has a breadth of knowledge that Palin does not have, if only because she's not had the opportunity. However, seeing that she couldn't even name some of the nation's larger newspapers, I'm not sure how much she would take advantage of any opportunities given her.

She's not even as smart the average freeper. Surely you realize that most freepers could name the Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and the Washington Times.

Admit it. You know that's the truth. But she couldn't. She is not going to be the savior of the right wing of this party. She just doesn't have what it takes.

please stay clear of me jitterbug...and look into getting a lightening rod!

There’s got to be a PDS site for you trolls somewhere! IF the story were true, I think she played along, just so people just like you are allowed to look as small as you demand to look.

Sorry, doesn’t pass the smell test and to be Governor of a state like Alaska, you can’t be a drooling idiot like say a Biden or Bambi.

I disagree with you. I think Sarah Palin is a very smart woman and a dolt is not what I would call her.

IF?

I heard it on MSNBC. One of the campaign workers finally took the phone from her and hung up. It was SOOOOOOO obvious that she didn't know she was being pranked when the guy finally told her.

Seriously, I haven’t been here long but I already recognize a couple people who haven’t posted anything but to bash Sarah.

If I recall, she wasn't asked to rattle off the names of newspapers, she was asked which publications she regularly READS. She doesn't read any of them and stammered a bit at the question.

I don't READ any of the major newspapers or magazines either, do YOU? You get them all delivered to your door?

I get my news elsewhere.

I think she's a nice lady, and a classy one. I think she politely handled what became a very weird call.

It seems to me that you were defending Obama on a birth certificate thread yesterday or so. But you have been a member since 2006.

I’m confused. I don’t think people shouldn’t be able to disagree, and I’m not screaming TROLL or anything. I just don’t know why you go to so much trouble for Obama and Biden and call Sarah Palin “stupid” and a “dolt”.

"I'm not holding my breath."

Shame.
That oxygen could be put to such better use by Governor Palin than someone like your pitiful self.

Oh well. Life isn't fair. Get used to it.

You watch MSNBC?

Ok, that answers that question.

How can a Freeper stand to watch that channel? Long enough to get a Sarah Palin story out of it? I can’t stomach it for more than a few minutes. I can take CNN longer than MSNBC. Heck they even showed that MSNBC only showed like 14% negative for Obama, but 75% negative for Sarah Palin.

No wonder you think she is stupid (but she isn’t, no matter how much Texas_Shutterbug wants to tell us she is)

At any rate, she was not just asked to rattle off names of newspapers.

I am intellectually honest enough to know that Sarah is not a dolt and you are an ass!

It was freaking funny. I don’t get the big deal. If anything it just makes her look like a nice person because she seemed genuinely amused to have been pranked. This is like the Philly’s gaffe the other day, stop making this stuff so evil and serious, its okay to laugh at yourself, Gov Palin gets this so why do so many of her supporters seem to lack that sense of humor?

God help us if Palin is the future of the Republican party. She’s got a place in it, but not as our presidential nominee.

How does her staff not screen out nonsense like this.

But yes, it was funny!

I've been poking fun at Palin just to see how few Freepers were intellectually honest enough to admit that.

I think you're the second. My kudos to you. The election has not zapped all of your brain cells. :)

I suggest to stop surfing the libtard sites, as they're beginning to gnaw away at your mind.

so let me get this straight, they called her on her cell phone? or the campaign plane, bus, whatever phone? c’mon she would have to know it was a prank. i am sure there is proper protocol to talking with foreign nations. i doubt it is common to just ring up some one running for office and say "hey whats up?" was this source that claimed to grab the phone “unnamed as usual”
like i said i am not buying it.
