Please make it stop (Sarah hit piece)
Washington Post ^ | June 3,2011 | Greg Sargent

Posted on 06/03/2011 1:58:08 PM PDT by Hojczyk

Everyone has already had a grand old time mocking this video of Sarah Palin bungling her Paul Revere history, but I actually think it amounts to quite an eloquent statement. It’s as eloquent an argument as anyone could make that this woman really should not be treated by any of us as anything resembling a presidential candidate until it’s absolutely necessary — which is to say, until she actually runs for president.

If only they devoted a tenth as much time getting after Obama's many gaffes.

I missed the gaffee. Was it a true oops or just a matter of opinion of the so called elites.

Maybe she should jab them a little harder by publishing a list of her gaffes that the media has reported versus a list of all of obama’s gaffes up to the present. Any guesses as to which is longer?

Thank Goodness that Sarah didn't say that her bus tour was going to visit 57 states. Can you imagine the media uproar if she had said that?

As Rush said today the media did not make Sarah so they cannot destroy Sarah..
They are terrified of her and angry over her attitude towards the media....

IF THEY HATE HER, SHE MUST BE DOING SOMETHING RIGHT...

She started garbling just a tiny bit there.

But you know, most people stumble over words a little when, especially when they're actually talking without a teleprompter.

Aman goes to England, he knows he has to make a toast, He has no friggin idea how to do it, He doesn’t bother to ask or he forgets his instructions, He screws it up and the Media gives him a pass.

Sarah cannot sneeze without them jumping al over her. The Washington Post is toilet paper.

Here's here quote as reported by USSA Today (Note the inclusion of "colloquial" speech):

He who warned, uh, the … the British that they weren't gonna be takin' away our arms, uh, by ringin' those bells and, um, by makin' sure that as he's ridin' his horse through town to send those warnin' shots and bells that, uh, we were gonna be secure and we were gonna be free … and we were gonna be armed.

OMG the horror.

I think it is more accurate to say they smell a potential candidate they can pull a Dan Quale on.

Luckily for Sarah, no one in her party needed an aspirator or inhalator after passing out. Bob

Much ado about nothing. The media is grasping at straws to try and bring her down. I’ve listened to her enough to forgive some silly gaff from a lady who has been out there talking the talk (and walking the walk) since the 2008 campaign. I’m positive she knows the true hhistory of the event and just got to talking to fast and her tounge got ahread of her brain. Happens to all of us (except Barry and Joe and the media elites of course - their special).

The liberals chatter about what they fear the most.

The lady has them biting their fingernails and making up comforting statements targeted at making them feel better.

Only a liberal is stupid enough to make something up out of whole cloth...and then believe it.

That's why they come up with ridiculously skewed polls...they'll believe them even though they know it's contrived.

He signs the guest book 2008. Imagine if Sarah or even Bush had done that. They would still be laughing.

You can smell the fear.

This. Everyone knows that Obama couldn't pick Paul Revere out of a lineup if his life depended on it and likewise Obama couldn't identify why there have been aircraft carriers named "Lexington" if he was otherwise going to be deported back to Indonesia or Kenya. The double standard is staggering.
