Sarah Palin is the biggest turkey of all. When you consider all her mistakes, arrogance and ignorance, you wonder perhaps if John McCain is also the biggest turkey of all to have chosen her as his running mate. What was he thinking????? Thank god for Obama!!!! Lee is so right. Sarah Palin is the biggest turkey of all.

Find a mirror and locate the problem. I wonder how Pelosi, Reid, Frank, Dodd, and Schumer missed the list...the whole Fannie and Freddie Meltdown is because of them.

Go back to your playgrounds and pick on the handicapped or something, and leave Governor Palin alone. Even though the media and mindless minions everywhere have tried to vilifile her, she continues to be popular and is a far greater catalyst for positive change then the liar so many of you elected. Four years from now (actually much earlier than that, I am afraid) the real change we needed will be sought out, and I doubt if she will subject herself to the lies and accusations that the country who needs her so desparately heaped upon her. God bless you Governor Palin. You were a beacon of hope in a dismal election year, and you did not deserve the way that you were treated. I am so sick of people bashing Sarah Palin.

Now as for politicians, what about Sarah Palin, the ultimate turkey? Her "pardon the turkey" video with turkeys being decapitated in the background was beyond poor taste. The woman herself wouldn't notice if her own head went missing. Until she tried to do her hair.

I figure anyone who does things as dumb as Palin should be recognized as a turkey even as she photo ops in front of a turkey killer... I wonder if she has a special Turkey Killing outfit from Neiman Marcus??? And Sarah Palin isn't considered a political turkey???

Please try listening to one or two OTHER voices besides Rush Limburger and Sean Hasbeen. You probably supported Sarah Palin. Prepare yourself for a truly wonderful experience -- prosperity for ALL, not just for the 1% already prosperous. The puppet show has ended. Now there are REAL people in charge and the results will indeed amaze you because you'll be surprised how wrong you are.
