Time’s Joe Klein Cheap Shots Palin: 'She Doesn’t Know Anything'; Earns Creepy Chris Matthews Cackle

There's something very tortuous about watching some of the talking heads assembled on NBC's "The Chris Matthews Show," especially when they try to dissect former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin like she is some alien life form.

On the July 11 broadcast of his weekend show, Matthews and his panel analyzed Palin's "Mama Grizzlies" ad spot and attempted to determine what Palin's end goal was with the ad. And Time magazine's Joe Klein attributed credit to Palin's charismatic ability.

"The most important thing about Sarah Palin is that she's a great stand-up politician," Klein said. "I mean, when you hear her talk - this is not a woman who has sat in a room with a political consultant telling her how to pronounce words. It's just her voice."

It’s funny how when Joe Klein saw her in DC a few months ago he went up to her, shook her hand and smiled at her, then he turns around and smears her. Liberals are hilarious, they don’t have the guts to say it to someone’s face but they have no problem saying it while palling around with their liberal buddies. Progressives are cowards, period!

I seem to remember a debate between the very senior Joe biden and Sarah...

She completely kicked his butt.

My zero will be willing to step into the ring... After all, he went to harvard and she’s uneducated... what do they have to fear??

(I know... It’ll never happen)

“’She Doesn’t Know Anything’”

Well, she certainly knows how to make Libs froth at the mouth and throw hissy fits.

"she doesn't know anything"

Seems like she knew how to grow her brand bigger than Time's.

"She Doesn’t Know Anything"

Translation: She's not up to speed on the Frankfurt School ideology and Manhattan cocktail party chatter that MSNBC talking heads and liberal New York Times writers, served by undocumented Guatemalan house slaves on Long Island, are obsessed with. She hasn't read many Doris Kearns Goodwin, Toni Morrison, or Saul Alinsky books. And she hasn't used secret handshakes to get a fruitcake at Notre Dame to give her an honorary doctorate while carrying out policies opposed to everything such a degree should symbolize.

LOLOL! I really, REALLY hope that’s Rahm Emanuel getting that look...

Classic paint your opponent as too stupid to warrant negotiation with Groupthink.

It’s a simple and effective strategy.

"There's something in the inflection which is provocative," Matthews replied.

As opposed to that weird sing-song inflection of Obama's when he puts emphasis on the last word of his sentences. Now that sends a thrill up Chris's leg.

(Sound of grey_whiskers purring.)

Agreed on all points, VERY succinctly put !

Consider yourself HIGHLY commended, sir.

Cheers!

“attempted to determine what Palin’s end goal was”

It never occurs to people like this to listen to what she says.

These cretins work for a business that has Lindsay Lohan on speed dial.

They cannot grasp that out here in the real world there are some very attractive women with brains, children and husbands who love them. Beautiful, articulate women who can run companies, city councils and State government and still remain warm, loving human beings.
