who cares what Roland Martin says...well, only the few Freepers who gleefully take a MSM commentator remarks and run with it as justification against Sarah heh!

But still Martin and CNN can say whatever they want to say....nobody in great numbers is listening anyway

Kim Kardashian is famous and making money for doing nothing. She actually became famous after making a sex tape with a black celebrity. Her father was one of the attornies who defended OJ Simpson.

Ya know? Every Palin bashing thing coming along nowadays after the Dems got their heads handed to them on Nov 2nd is just comical .. especially comparing Sarah to some nearly washed up celebutard such as Kim Kardashian who’s only claim to fame is that she’s got a beautiful head of hair .. other than that, who in heck is Kim Kardashian ??? GEEZ !!!

So a low class Paris Hilton or modern day Zsa Zsa? And some fossilized jourbalist actually compared Governor Sarah Palin to this individual?

Yea, she’s just another reality show wanna be like Kim Whatshername and the balloon boy dad. It’s not like she actually has shown any political skills or influenced the national debate or anything. They just can’t let the “she’s dumb” thing go, no matter how dumb it makes them look to say it.

Roland Martin? — didn’t he have a comedy show in the late ‘60’s? “Roland Martin’s Cash-in”?

Roland Martin whenever I see him talk I anticipate spit coming out of his mouth-he talks so fast and loud and froths a bit- I think he wishes he was the Kim Kardashian of CNN then he would surely have more viewers.

Just who are what is this “CNN” you speak of? Weren’t they a cable channel back in the early 80’s before cable also became irrelevant?

This the only Roland Martin I've heard of, but I'm guessing he's not the same guy who's on CNN.

LOL. That’s great! Of course, the fish in the pic is far more intelligent than the Roland Martin of CNN. Also, likely less fishy on the olfactory sense than Kim Kardashian.

Yes, because making the assumption that a female governor must be a bimbo is progressive!

Heh, I was just thinking about *that* Roland Martin. My older brother and I used to watch his fishing show on TBS when I was a little kid.

Kim Kardashian is a sexual Lollipop.

Sarah Palin is a succesful mayor, Governor, Business Woman and raised a beautiful family.

Let’s see:

Kardashian = Cotton Candy

Palin = Leadership and hope for the future.

Roland is great but I use to love watching that dork Jimmy Houston.
 
He was real stand up guy.  Kiss and Release was his motto.

If there was no such thing as Waxing, Kim Kardashian would be wearing a Burqa so she wouldn’t scare small children and animals.

No they can’t, because it is up to us to stop and combat the slanders. Would you let your wife, mother or sister be treated the way Governor Palin has? Or ANY woman should?

The danger of even one person hearing the hate is that one person tells another, and anither and another.... Pretty soon, there are a lot of hate-filled people. Kind of like now!

And for all the Romney RINOs out there, NO WAY!

It seems almost ALL commentators, journalists, and/or spokesmen are coming out against Palin in unison, very odd. The name calling is unreal, even Republicans that I used to respect. Fox News Watch was embarrassing, it was a flat out laughing session regarding Palin.

interesting....

Kim Kardashian is pretty hot in the looks department but otherwise you're typical brain dead idiot hence the comparison by a CNN to Sarah Palin. The idea of brains & looks i.e. Palin eludes CNN.

You guys all know that if Hillary Clinton quit as NY Senator after two years and was doing reality shows where she’s bass fishing at an Arkansas reservoir while cheering on Chelsea appearing on “The Amazing Race” or “Survivor” we’d be ripping on her in the same way.

Sarah has set herself up for these. This has been her choice to do the celebrity/pundit thing rather than remain in office.

You take Sarah Palin's activities over the last year ignorantly out of context.

Palin and Kardashian are juxtaposed on the current People magazine cover. Kardashian is the main subject of the cover and Palin has an inset photo. Kardashian’s photo is captioned Kim Kardashian at 30 I thought I’d be married by now. Sarah Palin was married at 24 and had 3 children by the time she was 30 years old.

You say that I take Palin’s activities out of context. What context is there?

I’m not seeing Hillary, Bobby Jindal and Chris Christie quitting their jobs to do “media” even though they are names mentioned on both sides for 2012.

I know the pat response is that somehow some “ethics” investigations in Alaska were going to bankrupt her and she just had to quit. Trust me, if she can’t handle some minor league heat in Alaska, what do you think she’ll face as nominee or President someday?

The debate we are having on Freep is all part of the vetting process. Something the Dems never bothered to do with Obama or were afraid of due to political correctness. We need this debate the next 6-12 months to see how Palin holds up.
