Tough call, but I’m going to go with two.

I would say 4 or maybe even 8… Ya do know she is math deficient!!!…

I can’t believe I’m about to type the following phrase but in defense of Sarah Palin, she ‘s talking about Rahm Emanuel.

Maybe the remarkable thing is that for once Rahm isn’t lying. Although for his lies, I guess Rahm usually goes into “senior White House official who could not go on the record” mode.

Palin accusing Rahm of being a liar is like Rove accusing Obama of being “too partisan.”

Or two, she doesn’t know what “lie” means.

she knows…

Oh, she tells lots of lies. That doesn’t mean she knows what they are.

Two, as is both?

Whether it’s Sarah bad-mouthing Rahm or Rahm bad-mouthing Sarah, it’s all just political theatre. Both are opportunistic, lowlife, fucking slime that care nothing about the country or the people. Their top priority is themselves.

Doesn’t the Quitter know that using too many of them tricky “big words” at the same time can spoil a good wingnut word salad?

Hey Sarah: Stick with what you know: Grifting. And speaking of that, I can’t believe this shit is going forward.

One possibility.

She doesn’t know what “philosophy” means AND she doesn’t know what “lie” means.

Good point.

If the woman was any denser she’d be a singularity.

True. She’s just too clueless to know when it’s one of the few times Rahm is truthful.

Giving Palin the benefit of the doubt, it’s possible that once she reads a script, like the one she read on the day the Barton was forced to take one for the team, she just doesn’t let it touch her beautiful mind. It isn’t a lie if you are so completely clueless that you don’t remember what you did an hour ago. She should probably take more polaroids and write notes on the back.

Palin + Polaroids = I don’t wanna see ‘em

I think the answer is going to have to be not “two” but rather “too”, in the sense of “also”.

Thanks for posting BT.

I posted this AM about her tweet over at Seminal. Thought the link was kind of funny in a tragic way.

The beauty of Twitter is that it captures individuals’ reactions who are not strategic about responding before thinking.

Tweet of the day!

Yeah, but she could give them out as door prizes at the tea parties. Or rather raffle them for big bucks since she probably doesn’t spit on the sidewalk without getting a cut from somebody. This would have the added advantage of taking them out of circulation so that the rest of us can keep from getting eye damage.

Or Hitler accusing Churchill of war crimes.

Also.

Well said. Nothing to add except: I agree. Both are disgusting slimey grifters out to make as much $$$ for themselves, alone. Could care less about the nation and even lesser about the “small people.”

Right.

Though the truly awful, unforgivable feature about your analogy is that Rahm is Churchill.

Back to work.

Namaste

OK, but I certainly hope they wouldn’t let someone like her keep a gun. Great movie, BTW.

I think Palin’s (and most of the Tea Baggers) problem is separating fantasy from reality. They are so emotionally wrapped up in their fantasy, they no longer can see beyond it.

One of McCain’s main ‘foreign policy advisors’ was Randy Scheunemann. He represents various dictators and authoritarians, generally located near oil reserves. He was involved in Palin’s candidacy.

Ergo, I take it that Palin is signaling — unwittingly — what the GOP dreads most: most Americans wake up and realize that the GOP is one key PR arm of Big Oil.

Since Palin is too witless to do anything other than try to smear Rahm, but her smear is yet another ‘tell’.

She’d be smarter to shut up.
But lucky for us, she won’t.

The woman is a walking catastrophe of GOP breadcrumbs.

I think you nailed it.

It’s much more widespread than just Palin. The right wing is so reflexively opposing everything Obama that they aren’t thinking out the consequences of doing things like defending really unpopular foreign mega corporations. Even the most apathetic can see the contradiction in wanting the taxpayers to pay for BP’s mess while simultaneously whining about “big government” and “huge tax burdens”.

Yup.

GOP: The party that wants to let you spend 20+ years getting ExxonValdez to pay up. And then appoints the very SCOTUS majority that cuts a $2.5 bn settlement down to around half a billion.

Their ‘economic initiative’ seems to be working hard for tax cuts so that more corporate attorneys can fight off public claims. For 20 years, and more — so you see, it’s a ‘long term employment program’.

/s

Yes. You may find my link @ 16 interesting.

“One, the Quitter doesn’t know what “philosophy” means”
____

“Philo” + “Sophia” – “Love of Knowledge.”

“Philo” + “Sarah” – …well…kinda obvious. I believe the lexical synonym is Narcissism.

Loyalty to Party aside, how is it possible that anyone can look at Palin and see someone even remotely Presidential?

Why can’t she just spread out her thoughts in two tweets. godamnit.

You’re right. Palin needs to keep it as simple as possible to keep from confusing herself.

Emptywheel has a fresh cross-post available: Support a Progressive Fight at an Inflection Point in History

Ye gods! I agree with Sarah Palin.

Rahm lies.

Well duh.

Sure he was right on the money when taking that shot at barton.

But that was the first time he’s told the truth that I can remember.

Rahm lies, fish swim, birds fly.

But why did she call that turd out on the one time in a blue moon that he’s told the truth?

As thoughts go, that one wasn’t even worth the one post, so why would she need two?

Sarah is merely projecting her stupidity, her arrogance and her hubris onto others. It is a Grand Oil Party tradition to project their own faults onto others

I am a progressive civil libertarian, who leaned toward privatization of some government services/functions. Now, I see the light and I am quite sure I don’t want any of these oligarchs making decisions that directly affect citizens w/o heavy government oversight. Some gems from the oligarchy: “We are doing God’s work”, Lloyd Blankfein – “I want my life back”, Tony HaywouldUbuzzOff – “We care about the small people”, Carl-Henric Svanberg — – Somehow they get people like Sarah Palin to wipe their ass for them – the things people do for money/fame

Insofar as there is no longer any honesty, integrity, nor veracity there left to impeach (to the extent that there may have ever been any there initially), that is an unimpeachable statement.

You forgot #3–you have no idea what the GOP thinks because you never stopped to look further than Joe Barton.

I’ve heard a lot of GOP politicians and commentators over the last 60 days. Nearly all of them are pretty pissed off at BP.

I’ve heard 100% support for the BP escrow fund both before and after the Barton comments from:

O’Reilly, Krauthammer, Kristol, Liz Cheney, Palin, McConnell, Will, Brooks, and on and on. Joe Barton is the only person I’ve heard negative on it.

Most GOP commentators are very pissed that Obama is not being MORE tough on BP–something I hear on these pages often, and rightly.

Before you become snide, you might do more research.

Rahm is just pissed off that his buddy, Obama, advocating oil drilling a few months before the blow out and blew his chance to have the high ground.

They’ve been trying to play catch up ever since.

“U lie!”

Oh, that’s just funny!

It is possible that S Palin is a sociopath (she fits the profile almost perfectly) and therefore, as is typical of a sociopath, doesn’t differentiate between lie and truth. To a sociopath, words are just means to and end and they can say anything towards that end. The sociopath is commonly capable of defeating lie detector tests.

OT — That probably seems non-sequitur. It was a reply to a comment that has been disappeared. And I don’t know why, since it wasn’t IMHO inflammatory nor an attack on the poster or any commenters here.

Just wanted to explain.

Not that you are interested in being persuaded but Palin, North and Rush were 100% behind the idea that Obama was being harsh to PB and manipulating the fund for political purposes. You will as always read the past based on the R playbook. Too bad.

Liking Team Obama or not is almost unimportant. The real problem is that this administration is very little different from the previous one, which in turn is very little different from Clinton’s. So long has you imagine that the Rs are the good guys, fighting the mean Ds, you have very little to offer to progressives or the general conversation.

I really hope she keeps talking, the more she talks the more folks find out how far off the reservation the quiter has traveled. I’m surprised the stupid doesn’t burn her.

You clearly didn’t read the post — where I mentioned the 114 Republicans in Congress who agree with Barton, and Rush Limbaugh, John Cornyn, The Heritage Foundation, Michele Bachmann, and Rand Paul.

Therefore, I have to assume you’re a troll.

The more Sarah Palin talks, the more influence and credence she aquires with the average person.
