(CNN) - Sarah Palin fired a new salvo in her war on the media, unloading in a new interview on her home state paper and “bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie.”
The Alaska governor, who has granted a steady stream of interviews since Election Day, also told an Esquire reporter that she wishes she had told McCain campaign advisors she’d be “callin’ some of the shots.”
"Bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie annoy me....I'll tell you, yesterday the Anchorage Daily News, they called again to ask — double-, triple-, quadruple-check — who is Trig's real mom,” she said, in an interview to be published in the magazine’s March issue.
“And I said, Come on, are you kidding me? We're gonna answer this? Do you not believe me or my doctor? And they said, No, it's been quite cryptic the way that my son's birth has been discussed. And I thought, Okay, more indication of continued problems in the world of journalism."
But Palin said she had adopted a philosophical attitude on the downside of the spotlight. "You have to let it go,” she said. “Even hard news sources, credible news sources — the comment about, you can see Russia from Alaska. You can! You can see Russia from Alaska. Something like that — a factual statement that was taken out of context and mocked — what you have to do is let that go."
The former Republican vice presidential candidate said again she regretted not taking a greater leadership role during the campaign season. "If I were giving advice to myself back on the day my candidacy was announced, I'd say, Tell the campaign that you'll be callin' some of the shots,” she said. “Don't just assume that they know you well enough to make all your decisions for ya. Let them know that you're the CEO of a state, you're forty-four years old, you've got a lot of great life experience that can be put to good use as a candidate."
Despite a season of barbs aimed at the coastal elites, Palin seemed to offer an olive branch to the Big Apple: "I would think we all tear up during the national anthem at the beginning of a baseball game, don't we? That's an alikeness between Alaskans and New Yorkers," she said.
Update: In an Anchorage Daily News column published last week, the paper's editor said the only questions reporters there had asked about Trig's birth came when the paper undertook a project to debunk conspiracy theories surrounding the event, but that they had abandoned the effort because of a lack of cooperation from the Palin family.
"I don't believe we have ever published in the newspaper a story, a letter, a column or anything alleging a coverup surrounding your maternity," wrote the editor in an e-mail sent to Palin and reprinted on the paper's blog. "In fact, my integrity and the integrity of the newspaper have been repeatedly attacked in national forums for our complicity in the 'coverup.'
Later, he added: "...So I don’t understand the behavior of the governor’s press office. Did the governor not share my email with the press staff? Did the press staff deliberately ignore what I said in order to have a longer list of press 'outrages'? Or are they just sloppy with details? I don’t know."

I'm tired of Sarah Palin, who lies.
Okay now she is really being stupid. The very people that put the word out on your are the ones you will attack as opposed to explaining – in an intelligent way – your positions is not the way to clean up your comical image.
Why is this news? She needs to go back to her igloo and take care of her "special" baby. Please, go away and leave us alone, forever!!!
Wait, you actually CAN see Russia from Alaska? I thought that was a joke! Man, I wish I could change my vote now.
STFU
Is she going to try and keep this stuff up for 2 years so that people don't forget her??? Somebody tell her to go away......PLEASE
Can't this woman just....go away?
Sarah Palin is talking about 'pathetic liars'? Irony noted.
My god... she's insane. She's actually, honest to god, insane.
"Alikeness"? Is she trying to say similarity? Ya betcha !!!
bored with her. Bored with anything to do with her.
This person just wants attention, she has some issue she needs to
address. She did take a leadership role during the campaign, doing
McCain dirty work. She does not know anything and the more she talk
the more it proves that she needs to take care of her family and go
back to school. She is placing the blame on everyone else except
herself.................She is sick sick sick!!!!!!!!!!!!
Enough. Give her a talk show-but she does not have the right stuff to lead an industrial state let alone a nation. Any nation! God save the Republican Party.
You just will not stop CNN.
We are sick of Palin, do not want to read about her and are dismayed how you continue to give her the headlines.
Enough! She was the poorest candidate ever picked in the history of our country, yet you dote on her and her ignorance.
Give us some credit for intelligence.
"I would think we all tear up during the national anthem at the beginning of a baseball game, don't we? That's an alikeness between Alaskans and New Yorkers"
That and the use of the word "alikeness."
She still doesn't get the Russia thing... that's an indication of how out of touch she was and remains.
Her problems really started to mount up on the campaign trail when she started to go "rogue".
Me thinks she protests too much. Something is fishy...
As opposed to the honest, bored and pathetic bloggers?
What about dumb, unqualified, pathetic, vice presidential candidates who don't even read the newspaper?
But those writing about Obama and Biden are OK... Right, Sarah? You betcha!
It figures, the closer we get to the inauguration, the more attention she wants. Someone please throw that poodle a doggie biscuit.
Why is Sarah Palin still in the news? Dear media, please let us forget that this person exists.
the newspaper has asked her 4 times if she is trig's mom?!?!?! OHHHHHHH Me thinks they have something on her! This is gonna be GOOD
Looks like the Guv has all the neccessary traits to be a blogger...except for anonymity
I wish that woman would dry up and blow away. She loves every minute of any controversy that centers around her. She is probably the "anonymous blogger". Do we really have to deal with her for the next four years? Of course, the media is providing her with the forum.
What a nutjob.
Ok thanks got your message. Woulda coulda shoulda. election is over and the newly elected president is gonna take office in a week. lets us all move on and wait till the next election if you got a point to make.
I may be bored, anonymous and pathetic, but I'm no liar. She's the liar:
Thanks, but no thanks?
I read all of them?
I have foreign relations experience?
I didn't fire the police chief because he wouldn't fire my sister's ex-husband?
The Bush Doctrine?
I have more experience than Obama? (check the facts there GOP...he's got more than a couple years of service on her)
The VP runs the Senate and is part of the legislature?
She's got the pathetic part down. Now, if only she could manage the anonymous part.
Sorry Sarah, you gave them nothing pertinent to talk about.
IT WAS OK FOR YOU TO ACCUSE OBAMA OF PALLING AROUND WITH TERRORIST TRYING TO PUT FEAR IN THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. YOU KNOW THAT OLD SAYING, WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND OR AS MY MOTHER WOULD SAY: WHEN YOU DIG ONE GRAVE DIG TWO.
I agree. This question has been answered too many times to require being asked again. This is the same as the Obama birth certificate issue. But, I can hear it now from all you Obama fans-any question, or slam is legitimate for Sarah Palin, but keep your hands off Obama and his family. By the way, this is a fact, and I'm still waiting for Michelle Obama to apologize for stating she was not proud to be an American until her husband won the Democratic nomination and she had a chance to become the first lady. IF she does (and probably won't) I hope she says it just as loudly and clearly as she did when she made that horrible statement. Looks like Michelle's pride can be bought for the price of becoming first lady. Sad, really sad.
I would hope that this woman is the Republican party's nominee in 2012. It would guarantee another Obama landslide.
GO AWAY!
Lady please just shut up and go away.
that dumb beyotch actually said that YOU CAN SEE RUSSIA FROM ALASKA!!! come on conservatives, even yawl have to admit she is dumb.
Keep talkin' Caribou Barbie. You just make even more American people think you're a bitter washed up idiot, you betcha. And then when you seek national office again, even fewer people will be on the Dimwit Express. Also.
I must say that older women have babies with down syndrom, not young girls !! So stay off Sarah, she is perfect!!! Like Obama said ,'Lay off my family"........This goes for the Palins also.......
Track, trig, trip...who gives a ship?!
If Sarah Palin wants to play with the big dogs she needs to get off the porch! Get over yourself Sarah – no one really cares!
alikeness?
Nobody is questioning whether or not you can see Russia from Alaska. They are dumbfounded because that was Palin's stated foreign policy experience. She needs to fade away.
When Katie Couric asked Palin How she kept up with world news and any other new sources. She could have easily named the “blogosphere” as a source, since she is so captivated by the bloggers information. I had to laugh when she finally named a news source 4 months later after the interview! Now that statement was something to archive, right next to the original interview! Just think going back on a test 3 months later and asking the teacher to change your grade because you finally figured out the answer! All her teachers need to be looked up and fired immediately! I guess she “winked” her way through school! Palin is a liar and needs to stop blaming people for her short comings!
Another Palin story? Say it ain't so! I did not even read this garbage.
ALIKENESS?
Now she's just inventing words lol
Please go away!!!!!!
Taken out of context? The 'you can see Russia from Alaska, so I know something about foreign policy' remark???
WHOSE context, Governor? It was YOUR CONTEXT – it was YOU who made the connection, NOT the reporter.
Keep it up! Every time you open your mouth you not only make yourself look stupider – not a mean feat, for sure – but you tarnish the Republican brand just a little bit more.
Are you SURE you're not the Democrats' 'Manchurian Candidate'?
So Sarah, where was Barack Obama born? So what about the bored, pathetic, republican bloggers that lie? You seem to accept their contribution – "questions that deserve an answer" – in good spirit.
who is she talking to? does she really think anyone needs to hear anything out of her mouth? exchange her for Vanna White and PERHAPS she has the ability to hold that job. she's not fit for any of the jobs she has held or sought so far.
Bloggers aren't journalists, they are citizens who use thier First Amendment to examine those who would pretend to be leaders. If Palin read more often, she might understand that. Maybe she should spend some of her hot air going after all those "Obama isn't an American" folks, or is that "real" journalism in her eyes?
Can we stop covering this bored, pathetic, woman who lies?
Dear God. This woman is for to laugh.
please
go
away
GO AWAY!
That's all I have to say.
....and all the haters on the left will start the conspiracy based, hate influenced comments in 3 2 1............
Boy, is this woman ever off the rails. She makes a bigger fool of herself every time she opens her mouth. Who would have thought that was even possible.
I had been worried that she would be a credible candidate in 2012, but at this rate she will certainly have self-destructed by that time.
Who else you Republicans got in the bull pen?
It is actually painful to read Sarah Palin quotes. It hurts my eyes as I question if the text I see was actually intended to be written in the order it often is. It hurts my mind when I gawk at how badly she has most recently butchered the English language. And mostly it hurts my heart to know that close to half of the nation I love actually voted for this fraud.
Newsflash for you Palin, welcome to 2009. Bloggers are very much now a part of the news landscape.
I don't believe they had anything to do with your falling on your political face.
CNN, two tickers with Palin in the headline today?
How long ago was the election?
More journalism, less crap please.
Wow...she just doesn't get it. We made fun of the "see Russia from Alaska" nonsense not because it was false, but because she thought it was an argument in favor of her claim to have foreign relations experience and that's just completely ludicrous. Seriously. The media needs to stop pulling the cord coming out of her back so she'll shut the hell up and go away.
WHAT A MORON!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'M SO GLAD THAT TICKET DIDN'T WIN...........
Two words...GO AWAY!
Hmm, how about boring, non-anonymous, pathetic former V.P. candidates who lie? Although I agree Trig is her child, she and others should never be let off the hook for trying to perpetuate such lies as Obama being a terrorist or anti-American. Do not forget the Waffle Box, or the more recent Christmas CD featuring The Magic Negro song.
Go, Sarah, go! I cannot give this woman enough support. I hope she will be the Republican presidential candidate in 2012. I am a Liberal, and nothing would give me more pleasure than to see the Republican Party totally destroyed, and Palin is just the gal who can do it.
Since the CIvil War, Conservatives (currently Republicans) have opposed every worthwhile proposal and reform. Conservatism was opposed to the abolition of slavery, the vote for women, equal rights for minorities, the vote for minorities, equal rights for women, social security, medicare, medicaid, public education for minorities, integration of public facilities ("No Colored Allowed"), the 8 hour day, the 40 hour week, and health care programs for children (!!!!!), to name a few. Palin is a modern example of the Conservative mentality.
Conservatism is down. We must kick it until it dies.
I may be bored and pathetic, but you are still not qualified to be Vice President.
If you have to let it go, then why is she still talking? Maybe it's because she has nothing to contribute in terms of legitimate policy on the national level.
I quest she is going to keep this up until Obama Inauguration. She is a sad exuse for a Woman. She is no Hilliary Clinton or Caraline Kenny. She is a very seft servering over the top nut case. If the baby is really her, why do she care with people on the blogger say. Please get over yourself and move on.
But Palin said she had adopted a philosophical attitude on the downside of the spotlight. "You have to let it go,” she said. Missy Sarah P. why is this so difficult for you? Is the problem the fact you now realize that you became a national joke? That you are a poster child for the absurd and chronically stupid? That you are seen the world over as perhaps the most unintelligent, impertinent village idiot to step on the national and world stage? Is the fact everyone with a modicum of intelligence laughs and laughs every time you scramble to rehabilitate your image: the image you irrevocably carved into the minds of the world?
Palin – Get lost – no one cares what you have to say. You need to stay at home and take GOOD care if your kids instead of trying to be something you will never be, Bloggers do not lie – They actually express their thoughts and opinions more freely this way than face to face. In fact I am tired of hear from and about you.
"Bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie annoy me….I'll tell you, yesterday the Anchorage Daily News, they called again to ask — double-, triple-, quadruple-check — who is Trig's real mom,”
Its amazing how she complains about these bloggers saysing she is not Trig's mother, but does not complaing about how her base spread so many lies and bs about PRESIDENT-ELECT Obama being a terrorist-socialist-muslim who would bring the downfall of our country! Oh wait, that wasn't the bloggers that was HER!
This is why America said "Thanks but no thanks" to you "Sarah"!
Dear Sarah,
New York is a Democratic town and you are not welcome. There is no alikeness between you and any New Yorker. Come to the Bleacher section at Yankee stadium and you will get Boo'ed like there is no tomorrow.
You betcha.
Guy from NY
She just doesn't get it, does she? It wasn't that she said that one could "see Russia from Alaska". It was that she told Katie Couric that that fact "certainly" added to her foreign policy credentials.
This person will never get it. But she always provides comedy, if nothing else.
What's the matter Sarah? You can't take the heat or can't handle the truth so recourse to labeling? You and Bush share many traits: clueless, lack of intelligence, myopic, arrogant.
Can we deport Palin? Maybe then she would shut up!
Same old keep me in the news any way you can. This person has so proven why she should never run for a higher office. When will we relive the free throw she made(onlypoint) in her high school basketball game championship. Can't you tell she is NO LONGER news.
Someone wipe her chin...she drooled some stupid on it.
Isn't this the same woman who used blogger posts about William Ayers?
If only the press would pursue Obama's original birth certificate from the State of Hawaii with such vigor would we all be better served.
"Alikeness"?? Hmm, had she been elected, publishers would have a new series of books for us to buy: Palinisms!
This woman clearly does not recognise what a fool she's making of herself.
Interesting how she yet again dodged the question of Trig's parentage by ridiculing it. The question and accompanying speculation is never going to go away until she proves she's the child's mother.
"Do you not believe me or my doctor?"
No- as surprising as this may seem to you, Sarah, we don't take everything that comes out of your mouth as gospel.
Only time will tell I guess....
The only liar is you palin, you are a clueless pathological liar! And a whiner to boot! Good God do you ever stop talking about yourself. To all those brain dead folks who actually voted for mccain and palin can you honestly imagine how much further this country would have been destroyed if those two clowns got into the white house? I shudder to think.
There is a true saddness about people who have had their 15 minutes of fame, but don't ever want to leave the spotlight. Palin, Bush, Joe the plumber and Cheney are the worst I have ever seen. I, for one, am sick to death of them.
This lady is an idiot
"she wishes she had told McCain campaign advisors she’d be “callin’ some of the shots.”"
Doing that would have made her a.....get ready for it... MAVERICK.
Sarah: you are a joke!
I'm not sure about Alaska, but one thing Palin runs well is her mouth. Now if her sentence structure will just improve, we might find out if she's got anything to say worth listening too.
Just go away, woman. Don't you have children to take care of? Some the temper tantrums!
Sarah, go away. The only people that are making any of this an issue is you and people like Joe the plumber. It has been YOUR party all along, blame them. You know what annoys normal people... YOU and you lies and riot inducing hate mongering. Maybe you should strike a different tone and stop trying to divide people even more than you have.
Why is CNN so obsessed with this lady? Can't you use your resources to report real news. You are starting to look like a gossip column when it comes to Sarah Pailin.
Just release your medical records, and explain why your daughter was taken out of school for the months leading up to "your" sons birth with mono. I have never seen a case of mono that lasted that long. This woman is soooooooooo pathetic. LOOK AT ME ,LOOK AT ME, HEY DON'T TALK ABOUT ME. LMAO what a joke you are.
Stop the temper tantrums!
Is it possible to have Palin get back to her job as governor of Alaska? Is it possible that she hasn't a clue as to what she is doing - yes I believe that she doesn't know what is going on. She is plainly (to me that is) an ideolog and doesn't know that she needs to still learn.
As much as I as I disagree with and as sick as I am of seeing this woman it’s totally unfair and insulting to continue to bring up the subject of her son not being hers. This garbage is about as believable as the whole Obama birth certificate thing.
CNN – you’re only adding fuel to the fire. Cut it out!
Who lies more than her. Why is she acting like a high school teenager?
“Even hard news sources, credible news sources — the comment about, you can see Russia from Alaska. You can! You can see Russia from Alaska. Something like that — a factual statement that was taken out of context and mocked — what you have to do is let that go."
She still doesn't get it, does she? The context (questions about her foreign policy experience) was precisely what made the statement so laughable, not whether it was factual or not.
Also, someone needs to point out to her that the way to let it go is... to let it go. Stop talking about it. Keep your peace. Shut up. Stay silent. Refuse to comment. Not give the bloggers and others any additional ammo. The mud would settle if she didn't keep stirring it up all the time. But then maybe that's really the point?
What about bored, pathetic, ignorant and uneducated Alaskan governors who lie and prefer to spend their time extending their 15 minutes of fame rather than actually governing their state?
Sarah, go away. The only people that are making any of this an issue is you and people like Joe the plumber. It has been YOUR party all along, blame them. You know what annoys normal people… YOU and your lies and riot inducing hate mongering and bigotry. Maybe you should strike a different tone and stop trying to divide people even more than you have. STOP CRYING ALREADY.
Isn't she on clock? and shouldn't she be taking care of Alaska instead of going looking for the media.....she's become a "newsie" star and must feel left out.
And 99% of them post here on the Ticker.
Question – what will you all do when mommy and daddy's trust fund dries up, or they lose their jobs? Cause we all know that most of you who claim to be 'hardworking' or 'former Republicans' or 'mother / father of a soldier' are really none of them; you just follow the lib kook / moveon.org playbook.
Yes of course. God forbid the thought that your intellect is substandard. It has to be every journalist,blogger and everyone else who heard your many stupidities that are "liars"
I mean it must be the journalist's fault that when asked about the Bush doctrine you return a blank stare and drift off subject. It must be because of biased bloggers that you spouted a chain of nonsense during the Coulter interview.
*sigh* Just like Bush she screws up and then refuses to admit it.
For the love of god, please go away
Palin just will not stop the blame game. First she blames the media , bush, john mcain handlers, the bloggers and etc.. This lady is her own worst enemy in so many ways. Now I do believe she enjoyed the spot light and now she is in rage. Sarah needs to find some help immediately
There simply are no words....none, nada....simply no more words..........AGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
She wouldn't answer media questions during the campaign, and now she WON't SHUT UP!!
I can't blame the media for continuing this sardonic saga. My advice to Sarah is to just give up, shut her dumb mouth, and stop feeding the world with her nonsensical rhetoric if she intends to run for any public office again.
Please let her fade away....she was a joke as a VP candidate.
SHE IS PATHETIC. SHE NEEDS TO GO AWAY. SHE WILL DO ANYTHING TO STAY IN THE NEWS.
SHE IS REAPING WHAT SHE SEWED WITH OBAMA AND NOW SHE CAN NOT STAND IT. I HOPE SHE FEELS LIKE WE ALL FELT WHEN SHE WAS SPEWING LIES ABOUT OUR CHOICE OF PRESIDENT. WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND AND NOW SHE CAN'T STAND IT! SHE NEEDS TO JUST GO AWAY FOREVER!!
Ever hear of FACT CHECK Sarah?Many bloggers are smarter than you.Partisans on both sides makeup the lies,because many people want to believe a lie.I dont blindly believe everything my doctor tells me,because wherever there is a profit motive,there is a chance of falsehood.Maybe you should get a DNA TEST AND MAKE SURE THEY DIDNT SWITCH BABIES ON YOU.It wouldnt be the first time.
Those who can, do. Those who can't become Democrats and blame everything on the hard workers (while waiting for their handout).
She still doesn't get the joke. It doesn't matter if she can see Russia from her house or not (she can't). It's funny because she claims this as her 'foreign policy experience'. What a moron.
What a complete Denial of perspective
CNN: No more articles on Palin, please. Nobody cares any more.
CNN, just stop, let her go away.
The more she opens her mouth the dumber she sounds and I'm a Republican. She hates Tina Fey but goes on SNL, she hates the media but keeps giving interviews.
CNN lets make a deal, send her to Israel to report on the violence in Gaza next to Joe the (I'm not really a) plumber. I'll start a collection to pay for a one way ticket over there.
Alaska must be paradise because Palin is focusing on everything but her job up there. They must have no problems.
Please Please Go Away!!!!
Sarah's the future of the republican party. That has all of us democrats excited and confident. And Sarah....you are the last person that should be giving yourself advice.Look out Bullwinkle, the crazy lady is packing.
It's amazing to me how obtuse she is, and her insistence on blaming everyone but herself for the way she appeared to the nation.
PALIN GO AWAY!!! CNN give us a break from this Half Baked Alaskan!!!
*crickets chirping*
Seeing Russia from Alaska is not the appropriate response in answer to foreign policy experience.
We get it! Obama/Biden won and McCain/Palin lost. McCain gets it too. However Governor Palin does not. Instead of going gracefully into the good night to do the job she was elected to do, she continues to whine about the loss.
Governor Palin, get on with the next phase of your life and stp whining and you might have some political future. No one apprectiates a bad loser and that is what we are seeing from you!
It is over and Obama won the presidency with 53% of the vote, in an electoral landslide and now enjoys a popularity rating in the 80's, meaning even many who did not vote for him, now view him as competent and capable.
As Alaska governor, you seem to be too, even if you were not ready for prime time. Stop trying to steal the limelight and govern for the good people of Alaska.
Mrs. Palin has obviously never heard the phrase, "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." She could take a que from McCain's daughter who, today, is taking the high road & not making comments about Mrs. Palin. Mrs. Palin however, continues to spout nothing but misery, sour grapes, & if-only's. Time to move on, move forward & be quiet now. Perhaps with a bit of quiet reflection Mrs. Palin will understand why McCain/Palin didn't win the election. Perhaps she will understand why she wasn't given more of a free reign during the election (she was not the top of the ticket & it wasn't her call). And perhaps she will come to see that continuing to talk about how much she hates the media, will not endear her to them in the future, when she just might need them.
Is this confirmation that she does read? Still no newspapers or news magazines...only blogs. She is also a bored, pathetic, liar as well. Is Osama-I mean Obama-a muslim friendly with the terrorists? She claimed he was many times. Go back to the hockey rink and give it up. Go back to making moose chili. You should be ashamed of your comments and ignorance during the presidential campaign.
I guess Sarah is not presidential material after all. She has no problem dishing out the lies and innuendo but can't take it when the tables are turned on her. Poor little primadonna!
Oh God her again? What is wrong with you people in the media?
Why are you still talking about an under-educated lady looking for more opportunities or fighting for her political carreer after being exposed publicly?
Don't you have anything else to put on the political ticker?
I am personnaly getting sick of this. McCAIN played a game and lost. it's up to the some stupid morons uneducated so called rednecks in the GOP party to continue to listen to that stupid lady or move on. There are so many GOP propaganda channels they can go to and support their queen.
CNN do us a favor, stop talking about her. It's shamefull for this country to keep puting a potential VP that can not put a coherant sentence or argument together on the spotlight.
Hope you post my remarks if you really promote freedom of speach.
CNN – not a news story.
It seems she won't stop talking anytime soon, so you have to stop printing it.
What does this article add to all the other ones since the election where she says she should have had 'more control' and the 'media is out to get her'?
We are still focused on her family yet when M, Obama said she has never been proud of her country Obama said she was off the table. The media left her alone but Palins family is fair game right.
If the Media is not bias then explain this.
CNN, I would appreciate, as well as millions others, if you would please stop reporting anything this woman say. Especially if isn't of any substance. In seven days this country will turn the page from yesterday and I would like to know that you will be leaving Sarah on the yesterday data
Okay CNN. Now that Sarah Palin has slammed you (The mainsteam media.), your viewers and practically everyone on the face of the earth. Could you please stop reporting on her.
We have all had enough for God's sake...
What language does this lady speak? Why am I so fascinated with this inept, inarticulate, intelectually dull individual? I guess it's because I cant believe that she was picked in the first place and continues to certify just how shallow she really is. If this is the best the party has to offer, we might as well go to a single party system!
Yet this is the woman who accused Obama of pallin around with terrorist and basically called him a Communist with no solid proof other than hearsay and those blogs she detests so much now. I am so sick of this broad. Where is the mute button?
Democrats do nothing but lie. Nothing new
Yawn...this woman blames everyone else but herself for her incompetence. Bloggers lie about everyone, and nobody more than PE Obama. Palin needs to go away.
The Media should be thankful that Sarah Palin did not become the vice president. She probably would have used her power to get a few of the journalist, the world of "bloggers "ISP's" who were critical of her fired and sent to jail. I am sure, Karie Couric would have been the first candidate on her list to get her fired.
Take note from a professional (Obama) when asked repeatedly to produce his birth certificate, he does and then ignores the fringe people who love to drum up conspiracies. So, ignore them! It's that simple, really. Oh, and I thought it was the mainstream media bringing this up? Now it's some anonymous blogger.
i'm a pathetic, bored blogger? well, sarah, i have more education that you do, finished my college in three years, went for a year in one of the best universities in england, took and finished my mba and am doing an honest, hard day's work that benefits not just my family but also people in general. yet, i don't pretend to be what i'm not. so, if you can honestly say that about yourself, i'd suggest that you zip it and just disappear. please.
GO AWAY! PLEASE! the only person discussings Trig's mother is you!
How can anyone this stupid actually crave the limelight? She should be trying to hide under a rock.
Please Ms Palin, crawl back into your Alaskan cave and get out of the news. You are whiny and boring. We, the rest of the states, have some serious issues to contend with- who cares who your daughter or you have slept with or what your kitchen looks like.
This person looks vaguely familiar, yet strangely impertinent.
Sarah Palin is awesome! She is honest and fights back at people who criticize and attack her and her family. Sarah, I hope only the best for you and your family. God bless.
Just....please....go away......way way way away..........please......
Ms. Palin should simply...and quietly...do her job as governor of Alaska to the best of her abilities. This will go much farther in repairing her repuatation than offering up a lot of interviews that make her sound somewhat like a scolded child who is trying to blame everyone but themselves for the predicament they're in.
She is just destroying herself. Good!
Truth is, there is no truth. Please sit down sarah, your day is done!
MY ADVICE TO YOU SARAH...
LAY LOW AND STAY QUIET...THE MORE YOU TALK THE MORE YOU LOSE YOUR DIGNITY.
STAY AWAY FROM INTERVIEWS AND MEDIA. DO WHAT YOU DO BEST.
"Let them know that you're the CEO of a state, you're forty-four years old, you've got a lot of great life experience that can be put to good use as a candidate."
Well, you know Gov, if you got any aunts, cousins, or even sister's for all I know, I am single, you know, LOL!! I'm just saying, I'm just saying...LOL!!
OK. That's an alikeness.
Shakespeare she's not, but I still want to know what newspapers or magazines she reads.
Prove to me she can read.

I'll tell you, yesterday the Anchorage Daily News, they called again to ask — double-, triple-, quadruple-check — who is Trig's real mom,”
No they didn't. She is lying because it's convenient for her. For a Christian woman, she sure has no scruples.
Why won't Gov. Palin grow up
You lost, be gracious take like a women, move on, and go back to governing your state. Feel Blessed you were even lucky enough to be choose to run. It's over.
It seems that the word pathetic applies to Sarah Palin more than any other individual. Do your job, governor, and stop being such a publicity hound.
Bored, pathetic Palin...just go away...
She's right about the problems in journalism. Too bad she didnt catch it before the invasion of Iraq.
"Alikeness"? .......... Do they speak another language in Alaska?
Also, I don't understand the bit about the baby. "Do you believe me or my doctor".... what does that mean? Does the doctor have a different story about the kid that she has?
I can never figure out what the hell this woman is saying.
PLEASE JUST SHUT UP!!!
AFTER SEEING THE ELECTION RESULTS AND HOW NEW YORK VOTED COMPAIRED TO ALASKA, I'D HAVE TO SAY... EVEN THE DUMBEST NEW YORKERS ARE SMARTER THAN THE SMARTEST ALASKANS.
THEY COULD PROVE THEIR INTELLEGENCE BY ELIMINATING HER IN THE NEXT ELECTION!!
MEANWHILE, JUST GETTING HER TO SHUT UP WOULD BE AN ACCOMPLISHMENT!!
SHE AND "JOE THE WANNA BE PLUMBER" SHOULD BE DOING CORRESPONDENCE WORK TOGETHER... FROM SIBERIA
I agree fully that discussion of who the Baby belongs too should be off limits.My problem is Gov Palin being asked a simple question about what she reads and some how thats gottcha journalism?? Gov Palin did not cost the Republican party the election G.W Bush did !! The public is going to want to measure a canidates knowledge and experiance during a campaign ....Asking about how a canidate comes by thier experiance or knowledge is good journalism !! Gov Palin should recognize that before she decides to run on the National stage again. Chris G
A note to Sarah: The election is over and you LOST. There are much more important things going on in this world than what you think of people and events. You are not a part of "big time" and your comment that you should have controlled more on the campaign indicates what an ego you really do have. You were NOT the primary person on the campaign. John Mc Cain was and he should have been calling the shots. I am sure you agreed to anything to get on the ticket but after a loss you imply that had you been in charge, things would be different. Let me tell you for sure that the outcome would have been the same only the figures in the loss would be greater. Get a life...take care of your family and your state.
Go away
Every single time she talks she's bashing some other groups of people, Tina Fay, SNL, now the bloggers...
bloggers who lie....THEY LIE!!!!
much like Palin lied about obama "pallin around with terrorists" being able to see russia, having foreign policy experience, and the list goes on and on and on and on....
sORRY YOU RAN ON YOUR LOOKS. IT WORKED IN ALASKA, BUT THE MORJORITY OF THE COUNTRY KNOWS THAT LOOKS ARE ONLY SKIN DEEP. GET EDUCATED AND BRING BRAINS TO THE TABLE.
When can we be done hearing about this woman??
ooohhhhh....booo hoooo booo hoooo... I lost...booo hooo... now Im gonna throw everyone under the bus and attack everyone who challenges me....and that should get me in the white house. What an angry person... if she cant handle the media or tina fey... why on earth would we let her run our country???!! Please...dear god...please.... put the "R" out of your head for a minute and tell me you are really so partisan that you would EVER vote this hateful whiner into office on any level.... get real palin...your 15 minutes are WAAAAAAAAAAAY up...
Wow. Too bad she wasn't callin' the shots. Then President-Elect Obama might have won about 47 states. I am sure she will be a force in 2012.
Palin/Plumber-Reporter 2012!
Who cares what the haters say.
I graduated magna cum laude from a university, was constantly surrounded by liberals, i have lived in rural upstate NY with plenty of rednecks, as well as the ghetto of a big city with people of all colors and from all walks of life. (Just as a side note, I have met white people who are racist- and i have also met many black and hispanics who are racist... its not just white people who are racist.) I'm well educated and well cultured, and I have had many one on one conversations with intelligent and prestigious professors, and I have always held my own.
Sarah Palin is the real deal, and I like her. Sarah, nor her supporters, are dumb. Frankly, its quite elitist and snobbish to imply that. You don't like her opinions and political positions, thats fine. Deal with it. Come to NY, debate me any time you like.
When will this pathetically stupid broad realize that her fifteen minutes of fame are up?
interesting....now you know what Challenges Barack Obama faced with bored lying pathertic bloggers who picked up some of the lies you said about him i.e palling around with terrorists and those bloggers perpetuated the hate. So Palin, just go back home. Your time is up...we have important things to do....i am watching the confirmation of Clinton on CNN and it is nice to see a strong, intelligent woman speak...it has been a while.
Bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie? Like the ones who tried to brand Obama as a Muslim, socialist, terrorist, etc? Ms. Palin is cherrypicking her intelligence, and her gripes.
That's right...you just have to let it go! PLEASE!!!!!
Go away Sarah. And please stay away. You are the most ill-informed, incompetent and corrupt boob to be on a national ticket since Spiro Agnew.
Worry about Alaska. Stop answering, stop talking about it. This is why people make the comment that you just want to stay in the lime light!
You have a state to run, a family to raise, a son in Iraq, a new grandson. If you think the press lies-stay out of it!!!!!
Sarah if you would just keep your mouth shut and not have interviews all the time the bloggers would not be saying anything. You have to be out in the spotlight all the time. Its a good thing you didnt call the shots during the campaign. We have seen enough what came out of you by the hate rallys that you gave and neither you or John did not try to stop this. Mccain was just as bad with his attack ads he had out. But I guess you can see it did neither one of you any good. As you would say it was a task from god that you did not win the election. I think you should see if you can get elected for governer and go from there. If you dont make governer again I dont think you would have much chance for president. The whole usa seen by the interviews you had that you were not qualified to be running for vp. You could of stoped all this talk about your kids if you didnt put them out the national scene everyday. At the republican convention you remarked about Obama being nothing but a community organizer. Well look where it got him. You could not even make it being a governer. If every one is talking about trig not being your child why not but the doctors report on the internet and his birth certificate out. Then you could put all the rummers to rest. But now you wont do that cause you keep wanting to be in the spot light. You should know that the republican party is losing members and if you are any where near the presidental election in 2012 they will loose even more members. But you dont care about your party all you care about is Sarah.
The election is over. Please stop reporting on Sarah Palin. Just because this lady is to crazy to let it go, doesn't me the rest of the world shouldn't.
Time to focus on real issues and people of substance. Nothing here of interest.
Why is this even a story? Like an aging boxer she comes back for more.
No one tears up during the national anthem at a baseball game. Instead of positioning herself for 2012 by trying to equate inconsequential blogs with the MSM, perhaps she should position herself for 2012 by reading a few books on the US economy, the global economy, and international affairs. Substance is more important than style, Governor.
Sarah, govern your state well. You have an 80% plus approval rating and don't listen to the mantra of hate that will begin...
"You have to let it go"???? Is that why she keeps bringing it up day after day. Sheesh!!
STOP THE INSANITY!!!! For the love of god, CNN – enough with this crap!
how about: COUTH
She needs to be quiet. She is not the first person to be picked on....WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF BEING A WOMAN! I AM A WOMAN THAT'S LIFE. She should have done more so that her resume had the likeness of the Michelle or HIllary when running for this office. The problem is even with big titles like mayor and governor, she hasn't primped or flexed her intellectual prowess because she doesn't have it. That is fine though...everyone doesn't have to be a genius. However, the constant complaining and ache for attention (probably why her daughter got pregnant in the first place, misjudgment and cry for attention from a mother who needs the spotlight, gosh this is PSY 101) is going to over exposure her and make her no longer viable as a candidate for the Reps in 12 which will guarantee Obama's re-election. She really needs to play this wisely but those with histrionic personalities and internal ache for attention cannot help themselves.
They should send Sam the Reporter, I mean Joe the Plumber, or perhaps Jorge the Obstetrician, to check this one out.
Why won't she show us the Birth Certificate??? What is she hiding??
(I'm sorry, but I just couldn't resist, lol)
Whatever you think of her, she nailed that one. Journalism is dead.
Just go away...like the Bush and Cheney team...
When your campain and stance on issues all surround lying and not answering questions, what do you expect? She was involved in corruption in the State she is elected in.
TRUTH HURTS EH, PALIN ??????
I am not a republican so I can say this truthfully. If McCain had been more outgoing, informative and truthful like McCain, obama might have had a tougher time trying to win.
just show us the birth certi for mr trigger Palin if you are the mom i believe you are but the rumor mills are spinning fast what is hidden in the dark will come to light soon.
Is she just out of touch or completely delusional? It has nothing to do with the comment "You can see Russia from Alaska" in itself. It has to do with the fact that she used that statement as a litmus for her foreign policy credentials. She has absolutely no understanding of foreign policy. She has absolutely no understanding of domestic policy. She has absolutely no understanding of how the federal government even works. She couldn't even explain the role of the Vice President. Instead, she tried to parallel her vision of the role alongside that which Dick Cheney has crafted – a completely unconstitutional expansion of vice-presidential power. And for you blind and ignorant Palin supporters, I hope she runs for POTUS in 2012 because Obama will squash her. She is a completely ignorant, uneducated, unintelligent imbecile.
Ughhhhhhhh..... (beating my head against a concrete wall). STOP IT, NOW!!
The lady is an idiot.
Note: She avoided answering the Daddy question in regards to Trig. None of the arguments have been addressed by her. All we got is a "Take my word" from a racist dimwit that campaigned for VP on nothing but lies and division.
Are the people of Alaska still paying her to be their governor? She seems to spend most of her time promoting herself for some other job.
Well, I guess she's just gonna take her ball and go home! Nyah!
If she doesnt care about them why give people the satisfaction of commenting. Honestly let it go...sheesh
I believe she received too much national attention too soon – for her ability to handle it all. She really needs to step back for a decade or so and concentrate on learning the world. She was the worst pick ever and Dan Q. is most definitely sitting back laughing at this nut case.
Ms. Palin. Keep quiet. I do not agree with the myths (Trigs real mother) but I am fascinated that you continue to show your lack of knowledge and depth. I beg you. Concentrate on the work of serving as Governor of Alaska and take care of your family. Your endless desire to play victim and stay in the news is not helping you...at all.
I do wish you the best.
Go away already
Why does this individual continue to seek out press, knowing how the public has dismissed her as a lowest-common-denominator piece of hypocritical white trash? Well, perhaps not only does she lack the intelligence to just go away, but her handlers must be cut from the same cloth. Look at John McCain...I did not vote for him, but I admire the fact that he has maintained far more dignity in his loss, than his running mate did, is doing, and probably will continue to do.
Wasn't her 15 minutes up already?
Frankly, I'm so bored with her and woodsy, mouth breathing lifestyle to wonder why anyone would triple check anything. Or wonder why anyone would interview her or want to talk to her, outside of Alaska or the National Enquirer.
Ohhh, I get it finally. It is from the Bush/McCain/Cheney book on politics. 'llI make up stuff and get someone to write it down, then I stay in the media spotlight. Instead of doing work.
Why are stories still being written on this individual?
I really despise this woman. She tries to make it seem like the media is causing all her problems, when they come from herself. Please disappear, you pathetic excuse for a human being.
For the 5th time- who is Trig's birth mom?
C'mon, yall can tell us- we're just lyin' fake Americans who are bored
Y'all'll need us if yir gunna compete in 2012
Please go away!!!!!!!!!
sarah you pitbull in lipstick (your words not mine). please go away. we are sick and tired of you ignorant rants. you blame everyone except yourself for the negative blogs. if you would go away, take some englsh lessons, get more education, learn about world events (outside of alaska), maybe, just maybe people wouldn't be so hard on you. they aren't telling lies. its the truth and we all know the truth hurts. we all know you find it hard to give up the limelight, but really. the time you send trying to defend yourself from yourself you should be spending that time taking care of your children, running alaska in the ground and your new grandbaby. also you could be using this time to help your "PAL" the drug dealer. you know the lady that is the mother of the baby daddy. sounds like a full plate to me. so begone sarah
Well, Sarah, when you repeatedly lied during the campaign, specifically you kept saying that you were against things when you voted in favor might be the reason that no one really believes anything you have to say
God Bless America and God bless us all that you did not make it into office, no matter how 'maverickly'
Yeah, I'd say all of Palin's comments sound pretty accurate. But the sadder thing is all of the gullible folks who believe what the "bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie" say. It's one thing to say it, it's another to be dumb enough to believe it.
Bored, heading to anonymity, pathetic state governors who don't matter anymore...
THIS bored, anonymous, pathetic blogger thinks you're an idiot.
As HST once said, "If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen."
The whole thing is part and parcel of politics in 2008. I'd like to see the world return to the days of the Christian Science Monitor and The Manchester Guardian (the new Guardian is a good paper, put not a great paper), but that's not going to happen. Sex and scandal sell, when circulation climbs, so do ad revenues. It's all about the money. But Palin should appreciate that. She's a Republican.
BTW, Palin's buddy Coultergeist isn't known for her veracity. The woman would diss Mother Teresa if she thought she could make a dime off it.
Gov. Palin, stop talking about your children, and move on!!!!!
Hey Sarah, don't you have some "actual responsibilities" you need to be attending to? I would imagine it's kind of hard to do that when you're giving interviews all day long.
The woman is absolutely nuts! She is trying to redeem herself and prove she does know something, but only succeeds in further showing how unbalanced she really is.
She goes on and on and on. She is really smarting.
I felt the campaign really turned ugly with her and she brought out the worst in people.
If she was used as a spokesperson for what McCain wanted to use her for, she still allowed it and the nation said "thanks but no thanks!" Thankfully!
AND, she still doesn't answer the question on Trig. I had decided the baby is hers, but now I don't know.
Airhead! boring! Stupid!
Get a Life!!
Yawn....................
Please, CNN and the rest of the media, let the Palin story die. Palin is not news – she lost – it's over. As she says: "what you have to do is let that go."
“And I thought, Okay, more indication of continued problems in the world of journalism."
But Palin said she had adopted a philosophical attitude on the downside of the spotlight. "You have to let it go,” she said. “Even hard news sources, credible news sources — the comment about, you can see Russia from Alaska. You can! You can see Russia from Alaska. Something like that — a factual statement that was taken out of context and mocked — what you have to do is let that go."
Why is she still talking???
WELL "SHE' MUST HAVE THE TIME TO READ THE BLOGGERS OR ELSE SHE WOULDN'T BE COMPLAINING. Please CNN stop making news on everything she says or does.....you are just encouraging this young women and making waves in the Republican Party.
Governor Palin,
I can only hope that you will run for President in 2012. I am a
registered Democrat but you will most certainly will have my vote!
Oh, for lack of better words Katic Curic behaved like a school yard
bully and a jerk.
Thank you and hang in there.
.
Didn't Tina Fey just slam bloggers as well? Could it be that Sarah Palin and Tina Fey are, in fact, THE SAME PERSON?
The world hates you, get it?
I'd like to see Sarah Palin stay in politics. We need more tough minded women who aren't afraid of stating their views. And she is correct, if you listen to and believe everything the media spits out you probably have a very skewed view of the world.
Hang in Sarah and keep up the good work....
She put herself in this situation by simply being who she is. The Russia comment is funny because of what she said afterwards and how unsure she sounded. I wish she took more leadership so the ship would have sank faster. She is a perfect canidate to be mocked because she lies, flip flops, and postures as something she is not.
This is the second Palin story THIS MORNING.
ENOUGH ALREADY
Palin's at 14:50 of her 15 minutes...
Gov. Palin: You lost the election – it's over. The American public has much on its collective plate with the economic disasters befalling us all. We don't care about your petty complaints. You are old news. Perhaps you feel a need to keep your name in the news over trival matters, as that may help with your multi-million dollar book deal.
Govern Alaska as you were elected to do, take care of your special needs child, your teenaged single mother daughter and her infant. Put you attention where it matters and stop thinking you matter to Americans – because you don't.
Ya know if she would just shut up and live her life, quit commenting on everything... things would die down. I think she likes the Soap Opera stuff to keep things going and going. I am SOOOO Glad she wasnt Voted VP!!! Can you imagine her in the white house?? WE would hear it everyday (well we do now but MORE SO) on her trying to save her reputation..
Just shut up and sit down and maybe she will get more credibility MAYBE!!!
There is no question that bloggers lie. But I would suggest that Palin watch her own words. Her commentary during the election, particularly about Obama, were rife with negative insinuations that were designed to spawn negative commentary by those very bloggers she criticizes – and those insinuations and hints were based on lies and planned misinformation. So, given the religious background she hypocritically espouses, I would suggest that she heed her own words, and not cast stones...
Why are we still paying any attention at all to this woman? "alikeness"???
As a Upstate New York resident, I know a lot of people like Sarah Palin, but I wouldn't want any of them to be VP either. Don't get me wrong, I think there was a lot of sexism involved with her candidcy, but unlike Hillary Clinton who fought through that sexism with strength and grace, Palin just cries about it and plays the victim. Maybe someday we'll get beyond sexism in our lives, but until that time there's still no way a woman will be elected by embracing victimhood. And as if that wasn't enough, stupid arguements like "The state I live in is close to Russia so I know foriegn politics" really doesn't help. I can see the stars at night, that doesn't make me an astronaught.
Ok. So the entire world is wrong and she is right? Oh... c'mon... give me a break. Sarah, there are great deals on Amazon. com on history, geography and other instructional books that you might find useful.In addition, there is a copy of USA Constitution you just have to Google it. And, there are resources you can use prior to being interviewed so that you would not look like a complete fool.
Can Ms. Palin, the loser, please shut up and crawl back under her rock where she belongs
Doesn't she have a state to run into the ground?
Holy cow I wish this cry baby would shut up. The world of politics is a tough place. If you can't handle it, get out.
I think Sarah is right on with what she said! People took it to a whole different level with hammering her and her family. They didn't deserve it. Sarah is intelligent, honest, and refreshing person!
The top ten things that annoy Palin:
1. Free speech
2. A free press
3. People who notice that the daughter of this "champion of abstinence" got knocked up
4. Quebecois comedians who pretend to be Nicholas Sarkozy and successfully prank her for several minutes
5. Larry Flynt's right to free speech
6. Liberals
7. Democrats
8. Liberal Democrats
9. People saying things that she can't control
10. Republicans that aren't sufficiently conservative
She walked onto the national stage without understanding that the press would rake her over the coals on every little thing, no matter how silly or irrelevant? If that's the case, she's even less politically savvy than the American electorate seems to have deemed her.
And she really knows how "to let it go"?
Enough already.
Palin's history since becomming McCain's running mate is that she is always slamming someone or some thing and her attacks are rarely supported by the truth and facts. Palin, like President Bush, uses McCarthy tactics to divide people and attack the character of specific targets then acts surprised that the public doesn't like her.
Be quiet, Sarah, we don't want to see you or hear from you any more.
The journalists are still trying to find something to wear in Sarah Palin's closet. Let's play reverse rolls on the journalists. Did your mom ever have an abortion? Is your mom your real mom? Governor Palin, let's launch an investigation on the journalists? Let's see if there's anything in their closet they hung up that's dirty. I'm sure when we open up their closet, everything is going to fall out.
Get'em Sarah! We got your back!
Oh please! Why is she being interviewed... there are so many other important things happening in this world. Palin can bash up democrats later sometime.
Go home Sarah, your fifteen minutes are over.
an alikeness????
Really... she is killing her chances to be a national candidate. She would do better to just shut up and disappear for 2 years and maybe come back with a clearer and better strategy. She hasn't learned that she will lose this fight. Never fight with someone or something that you can't see or hit back. You will Lose.... Someone please tell her this... for her sake.....
Time for this ignoranus to go away.......you've had your fifteen minutes of shame, Sarah. GO AWAY!
I wonder how she would characterize Rush Limbaugh or Sean Hannity. Honorable champions of the truth? That's the world of politics, Governor. Both sides are equally guilty. Get a little thicker skin.
You can disagree with Governor Palin all you want, but some of the comments and lies made up on purpose by people that use...
HATE
to describe someone that simply has a different view on abortion or religion are just
PATHETIC!
She is ALWAYS the victim. What a crybaby. If HRC had been the candidate and said some of this drivel, the GOP "pundits" (aka shills) would have blasted her as unworthy to take the heat. But since she is a pathtic excuse for a candidate (and a Republican woman) she's being unfairly targeted. GIVE ME A BREAK fido!!!
We don't CARE Sarah. Please GO AWAY.
this women needs to go away. you lost. get over it. you are just as insignificant as you were the day before mccain's campaign picked you to be his running mate.
Will she ever go away?
now that is articulate. was this women really the republican party's answer to barack obama? what a joke
Will she ever go away? Why is she still making the news? Does ANYONE care anymore honestly?
And this is important news because...
This lady is such old news, please just let her fade away...
Sarah trying to stay in the news, pathetic.
The sad thing here is that she sincerely has no idea of just how out of touch she really is. She doesn't know what she doesn't know. She has great spirit, a burning desire to serve, and no common sense. She still thinks she's it. Sarah you yourself said you just need to let it go. So do you think you can please? Let it go and just go away. Say good night Gracie.
"a factual statement that was taken out of context and mocked ", the context was that since one can see a remote section of Russia from a remote island in Alaska, she must have the experience and intelligence to be vice-president.
Is "alikeness" even a word.
I too hate the internet. Hate it so much.
Palin is pathetic....A hot mess
I did not vote for John McCain in part because I think that Sarah Palin did not have the experience nor the positions that I believe are important for a vice president to hold. That said, I respect her as a public servant and I respect that her views are based on her values and principles. I also respect that there are a number of fellow citizens that her words resonate with; all the more reason to hear her side of things so that we can work together to have a successful society.
There are too many people that live to hate this woman. Unfortunately, these loudmouth, opinionated people are not constructive when it comes to solutions, they only know how to join the chorus of the popular.
Is this red herring compliments of a bored, pathetic x-candidate who lies?
I don't know anyone who has any concern about the parentage of her son Trig. This "controversy' is something her and her party keep alive by continually bringing it up.
It seems the purpose is to distract from the many relevant reasons she should not be a national candidate, the most part due to the perception that she has questionable ethics and a loose (to put it mildly) interpretation of the truth.
Her failure to appear to have a strong grasp of current events and the lack of interest to learn didn't help, either.
Can Sarah Palin just shut up and go away already? There's so much going on in the world right now and we really don't care about what's going on in her little bubble.
Oh for heaven's sake. Leave the woman alone. Leave the baby alone. Leave the family alone and maybe we'll all be left alone!
Im glad she finds us annoying because that is the message we are trying to send to her, she is annoying and needs to go away already. If you cant stand the heat get of the kitchen!
Seriously, how can it be that this woman's 15 minutes aren't up?
Does this woman ever do anything but whine? If you can't stand the scrutiny of the media or the American people then get out of politics.
As far as I'm concerned she gave up any right to complain about anything anyone says about her when she accused President-Elect Obama of "Palin' around with terrorists".
Sarah says that she wants to know
Why she's given half her life, to people she hates now
Sarah says when answering the phone
What country shall I say is calling from across the world
But she's not afraid to die, the people all call her Alaska
Between worlds so the people ask her 'cause it's all in her mind
It's all in her mind
Sarah says that she wants to know
Why it is though she's the door She can't be the room
Sarah says but doesn't hang up the phone
What sea shell she is calling from across the world
But she's not afraid to die, the people all call her Alaska
Between worlds so the people ask her 'cause it's all in her mind
It's all in her mind
They're asking is it good or bad
It's such an icy feeling it's so cold in Alaska,
it's so cold in Alaska, it's so cold in Alaska
Why does anyone still care about this idiot?
PALIN MAKES ME LAUGH. REASON #1 LETS RUN FOR VICE PRESIDENT AND THEN SHOW UP @ SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE WHILE THEY ARE POKING FUN OF YOUR ANTICS . AND YOUR TO STUPID TO KNOW ANY BETTER. WHAT KIND OF MAGIZINES DOES SHE READ? COMIC BOOKS? AS WELL ALL KNOW AMERICAN POLITICS WE LOVE YOU WE HATE YOU DEAL WITH IT
That's the saddest lil Pitbull with lipstick i have ever seen .. all bark no bite... she can she can kick up dust, but as soon as some gets in her eyes and mouth she cries foul .. lol .. i tell you .. ok Ms. Palin .. we sorry it's not your fault.. them mean o'l media people .. smh
My mom had a saying open mouth insert foot and engaged brain before starting mouth.
Are Sarah Palin's 15 minutes over yet?
Yuuu Betcha!
PLease, please make her the GOP nominee in four years....so I won't have to worry about voting.
Looks like the McCain campaign REALLY had a muzzle on her during the campaign. Too bad it is off.
I think the "see Russia from Alaska" comment was ridiculed BECAUSE of the context...factual it may be, but the "context" was that it gave her credible foreign policy experience...
I hope she sticks around for a while, at least to check the GOP in 2010...
FOR GOD SAKE, please STOP REPORTING EVERYTHING this ditz says. Shes a joke, and about as deserving of the media attention as samual "joe NOT the plumber wertzelbacker" They dont deserve any more attention and they make Americans look even more like idiots! The world seen that most of us have a brain and voted Obama into office, they are probably wondering what the HECK are will letting this woman have a mic. Its like letting ann coulter on tv, shes a joke, and no one with a brain CARES
Sarah – STUPID – if they were kidding they couldn't be calling. I am continually amazed at your level of stupidty. Doesn't say much for hte folks in Alaska that they would have elected you as governor either.
I had decided I wouldn't comment anymore on this lady, but she is beyond the pale. Does she actually beleive vice presidential candidates can cal the shots. Give me a break.
I don't care who is or who isn't little Trig's parent, I truly dont....I do think however that she has put her family out there and through her poor parenting skills has exposed them to all kinds of scrutiny. Right or wrong, you don't put a 17 year old girl, pregnant and unmarried on the world stage without causing comment.
A note to Sarah, The election is over, you did not win and the longer you run your rhetoric the less reiliable you sound.
Why don't you mentor your daughters and govern your state and leave the rest of us alone.
"I would think we all tear up during the national anthem at the beginning of a baseball game, don't we? That's an alikeness between Alaskans and New Yorkers," she said.
WTH is she talking about?? Why is she even still being interviewed? Does anyone care what this idiot has to say?
Palin needs to concentrate on making moose chili & shooting wolves from airplanes instead of running off at the mouth. She was not and is not ready for high office and probably never will be. She needs to let it go. She's had her 15 minutes of fame.
Why not lay off Palin??? She has a right to defend herself...quit asking about HER SON! She didn't win, the media got what they wanted.
Sarah you built this goody two shoes image, it crashed with your grandchild birth, God Bless the Child, shut up and govern
Sarah Palin needs to get back under the porch and quit barking. All she does is complain about something. She has nothing to offer on the serious issues facing our country today.
Dumb, dumb bimbo – please, please go away – why does she keep running her stupid mouth – good grief – get over it – you lost – you're a loser in more ways than one!!!
There is no hidden agenda to most bloggers who wish to get at the truth. Be careful Sarah, when you point a finger , four are pointing back at you. As for Trig, have the State produce the birth certificate and let's here from the doctor, is she willing to lie and end her professional medical career. Best have a "place for her" in the CEO's office. Caught by the photo with the ever changing fingernail polish...Nice manicures, must be real busy up there.
How much longer until she ceases to be newsworthy? Please, Sarah, just GO AWAY!
Still an idot! Thank God she isn't our VP1!
She has nothing better to do, that moron, than worrying about bloggers ?
Enough of this woman.
GO AWAY YOU VAPID BIMBO
For someone who hates the media... she has been making sure she is in the spotlight, at least every few days. This woman has a state to run, a family to run, and she is more concerned about the "main stream media" than her own jobs.
As an American, I am ready for her to get back to Alaska, and stay there for a while.... If you hate the media, quit talking to them....
I can't believe anyone cares. Everyone should stop asking her questions...then MAYBE she will just shut up and go away.
Who gives a crap what she thinks or says..... she's a racist that loves attention. Period!
I'm so bored with this woman. Can we please stop giving her press time?
Gov. Palin needs to come to grips with the fact that the campaign is over. Her need to explain herself just digs her deeper into this hole she has created for herself. She does not come across as an educated, knowledgeable person. If she wants to continue in public office she should learn from her mistakes and try to broaden her knowledge. Her speech patterns make her fascinating to listen to for entertainment, but not to represent the U.S. on the world stage.
How hurtful and childish people can be! What bullies! To imply Trig is not her child, with all the challenges the family will have with a special needs child, is cruel. Absolutely cruel! Sarah Palin is a talented and gifted leader that was "handled" poorly in the campaign. One of the reasons I did not want the Democrats in power was due to the cruel, viscious and unprofessional way they spoke about Palin. How childish and wrong to constantly slam someone publically with juvenile names! No wonder bullying is such a problem with young people today - they see it's OK and entertaining. Shame on those who continue with this bullying of Palin!
Ten more things that annoy Palin:
1. Putting "g" at the ends of words
2. Non-regional diction
3. Her daughter's druggie future mother-in-law
4. Having to go out to that one remote outlying Alaskan island that you can see Russia from, so she can keep an eye on Putin
5. Canadians
6. Polar bears
7. People who don't want to drill for oil in wildlife refuges
8. Wildlife refuges
9. Wildlife of any kind that isn't stuffed and hanging on her wall
10. Comedians and comediennes
Just go away...please.
go away palin
please go away
WISH MORE WOMEN WERE AS SMART AS HER ESPECIALLY IN WASHINGTON WERE THERE AREN'T ANY
You'd be calling the shots?
You're a day late and a dollar short to try to have a backbone now. Negotiations take place during the interview. When asked to join the ticket, all your "non-negotiables" should have been on the table. If those conditions could not be met, then Palin you should have declined their offer.
Secondly, your husband's silence is baffling. Granted he was not running for office, but as a man he should have been your most vocal defender.
Lastly, you should have followed McCains lead on keeping his daughter Bridgett off the campaign trail and in school. You see what the media/Rove did to her. Did you think your kids would be immune?
What comes around goes around. There are bloggers still writing about Obama being a Muslim and a fake birth certificate. He isn't whining.
Palin, please exit gracefully as McCain and support your grandchild. If you can't handle ridicule from bloggers, how would you handle the spew from dictators? You are too sensitive to be VP.
I agree... the media should leave her alone... if for no other reason than the fact that I would no longer have to filter through all of the Palin drivel to get to the real news of the day. While I'm sure it's just wild conjecture, there's one sure-fire way to shut up all of the lying bloggers who are talking about Trig, don'cha know? But she doesn't want to do that. That would take away from some of the attention she's getting. She doesn't want to become irrelevant, which would quickly happen if the media just left her alone.
I can't believe Sarah is still trying to justify herself accusing the media and the bloggers. Sorry Sarah dear, but you lost and I hope this country is smart enough to never let you be more than Wasila mayor or Alaska Gov. Bye bye Sarah. Disappear please!!!
"You have to let it go."
Then for the love of God and the sanity of all of us, just let it go. Quit harping on how unfair the media was for asking you tough questions like what magazines you read and then *gasp* reporting your failure to provide a coherent response. Those of us with more than two brain cells to rub together know you're simply pandering to your base that hates the mainstream media and thinks Rush, Sean and Fox are fair and balanced.
left wing bloggers lie???? surely not
Is her 15 mins of fame up yet! Get over it Palin and move on... and I wish the media would stop putting her in the spot light!!!!
THE GOP HAS SUGGESTED THAT PALIN SHOULD JUST SHUT HER MOUTH UNTIL SHE COMES UP WITH SOMETHING NEW THEY CAN USE. OBVIOUSLY SHE DOESN'T GET IT WHICH MEANS IT'S PAST TIME FOR PALIN TO GET A "HEAD CHECK" OR SHE TOO FAR GONE.
Well lets be real here.. reporters for newspapers and magazines are a little bit different than bloggers lol Im no fan of Palins and am thrilled she isnt our VP, but I have to agree with her in that most bloggers are sort of an odd group who jot down thoughts as if the general public cares. Most of the bloggers I have seen in business are wack jobs.
wow for a person that claims the media abuses her and lies about her...........well I think you know where I'm going with this!
If she wants us to believe she's really Trig's mother, show us the birth certificate.
When will she go away?
"But Palin said she had adopted a philosophical attitude on the downside of the spotlight. "You have to let it go,” she said."
Palin, it doesn't seem like you have "let it go." It appears the campaign has still negatively affected you until this day. So, stop your whinning and "let it go" for real. You have lost the respect of a lot of people and will keep losing respect of more people if you keep talking about the campaign. You lost. Too bad. Life's not fair. MOVE ON!
Perhaps she should just quit granting interviews. That way not only would she be spared have to answer the questions, but we would be spared having to be constantly barraged with her responses.
Enough is enough – just go away
The only "alikeness" we share is wishing she would disppear into the Alaskan sunset. Her 15 minutes of fame was up 10 minutes ago. If you don't give it any press, it will go away.
oh Sarah... lovin' that spotlight... you betcha!!
"continued problems in the world of journalism"
someone should tell the idiot that bloggers aren't journalists anymore than the bloggers commenting here are journalists.
Will the MEDIA stop giving this girl 5 minutes of fame, her time is up she is the only person to blame for the way the media saw her if she just go away and keep her mouth close she will not have a problem each time she open that trap something wrong come out of it. GO AWAY
Please accept the fact that you lost, Gov. Palin! Your constant whining about your mistreatment will not enhance your popularity in case you decide to become a candidate later. Return to your past role as Governor and mother and enjoy your family.
good noble polar bear please eat this woman.
OMG! Can't we just leave her alone?!!! I am a grateful democrat who admires this woman for wanting to serve our country! She is a great American and should be respected... We happen to have won the election and should be more graceful than what we have shown....
Why is this stupid cow still in the news? Doesn't she have a day job?
Thank God she didn't get elected VP!! Who would want to be subject to her whining and bleating about this and that. A pathetic "leader" who has no ability or sense to be in office or running a dog pound. Throw her into the has-been bucket. She's past tense.
Sleazy family can join her in purgatory.
Gee – Palin, herself, is one of the biggest liars in the country!
Now she wants all the media attention she can get, and keeps spouting off in order to get it.
Does this nutcase ever shut up.OBAMA and BIDEN won,McCain and you lost.Move on ,take a chill pill,take a tranquilizer,take a vacation in
RUSSIA from Alaska,whatever you do no one cares just GET OVER IT.
Oh brother!
Waaa, waaaa, waaaaa. Go back into your snow cave and just shut up.
I tell you, and I know you know this, I don't care what the article is about, if it says Palin, in the title, I am going to read it. She is the biggest political star of my generation. I hang on her every word.
More Palin, all of the time.
Sorry Sarah, it's just that you have a disgusting family and you are a bitter hateful woman...You lost...now go away.
What?
It is very cryptic. For many to question if Trig is her baby or not, says a lot.
I don't have much respect for Sarah Palin but some of the
stuff I've heard about her in referance to her or her daughter
is rediculis.
It's sad that the constitution let's people do this and there's
no way Palin can retaliate.
OK, but what I want to know is this: Is it really true that Trig was named after Roy Rogers' horse?
If Sarah Palin keeps attacking the media, she gives validity to what they write and say – and no one will ever take her seriously, not that they ever did.
People tend to get "MOST" upset when it's true. Lies can always be ignored. Obama was the best at that.
I had no interest in this gossip about Trig in the beginning since I know that bloggers make up stuff on both sides of the politcal map... However, the more Governor Palin brings it up, the more I want to know... Where can I get information on that?????
Enough of the Palin coverage. Can't we let her fade back into the landscape? Let her relax and watch Russia from her house?
I am really getting tired of BORING, ATTENTION-SEEKING, PATHETIC, IGNORANT POLITICIANS WHO LIE. Sarah Palin fits that description perfectly.
Sarah Palin, for the sake of the country, just dry up and blow away.
Yep, the malicious media. If I remember correctly, she was advised by the McCain camp not to do SNL, plus some of the other interviews she gave without prepping. And as much as she bashes the media, she sure can't stop talking to them. C'mon, Sarah, stop complaining about the media while you're doing everything you can to stay in their eye! Doesn't Alaska have some real business for you to take care of???
I think Ann Coulter and Sarah Palin are trying to win queen of whiners title. Talk about two people that are an hour late on their 15 minutes of fame.
Well Sarah your comments sound like more regrets and sour grapes. You keep saying you havet to just let all those comments go and yet you won't. And how can you defend your statement that you have experience with Russian foreign policy because you can see Russia from Alaska.
And Sarah to help you with your ignorance of journalism bloggers are not major reputable news agencies.
Sarah go crawl in an igloo and go away. You are not now nor will you ever be ready and able to compete with the big wigs in federal politics.
And put a pot of bear stew on while you are at it.
Man....She's just a human joke....with an endless stream of punchlines.
Normally I don't like to comment regarding Ms.Palin, but I am done with hearing her complain about everything. Is this really the Republican hope for 2012? The same person that said Hillary was whining? What is she doing now? Every other day she's "lashing out" against one group or another. Get a life Ms.Palin, and govern your state!
Palin is a SICK woman!!! She just does not realize that she is DUMB, DUMB, DUMB!!! She NEVER belonged in a Presidential campaign and she cannot accept the fact that she lost.
She is a drudge and I hope, somehow, she can be gotten rid of!!! Just that voice of hers and what she says are enough to send people flying away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A pox upon John McCain for letting the Genie of Stupidity out of her bottle. She won't return to her bottle, John! What are we to do now?
I simply do not understand why we have to continue to hear from and about Sarah Palin! She rails against the media, yet does not refuse any interview. If she doesn't like the spotlight she simplys has to say "NO" and the media hype will die down. I'm curious whether the citizens of Alaska are content with their governor's habit of giving interviews about herself and her family- how is that helping the people of Alaska?
Please, Please, Please – let's get back to talking and reporting about what is important – the economy, the war in Iraq & Afghanistan and how all of this is affecting regular people
Oh lordy, more red meat for the bunch that believe SNL is actually a real newscast. We need more blogs about Billary and all of the corruption there and what about Charlie Range, how come he is still sitting on the Ways & Means Committe, when he has been caught cheating on his taxes? Where did the auto bailout money go? Did the UAW finally get that golf course for union executives paid for?
She hates "pathetic bloggers who lie". Shucks. She just condemned 90% of her meager support base.
Yes, because the reason people made fun of her Russia comment was because they doubted she was telling the truth....
An "alikeness." Wow, how did we let this gem of a candidate slip through our fingers? (Well, I'll tell YA!)
"Bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie annoy me"
Hey, that's the same type of bloggers that spread all of the half-truths and outright lies about Obama. I guess she's finding out how annoying it's aimed at her.
You'd think she'd be prepared for it after hearing all of the crazy stuff shouted out at the pep rallies a few months ago.
I would be happy to meet with her in person to tell her what I think of her and call her out on all her bs...but I bet she wouldn't go for that. It seems she would rather make statements through the press and hide behind "the media" while she steals her last bit of the spotlight. She is pathetic.
get overt it and mind your alskan businesses
WOW, this woman is never going to give it up. Thanks to Mccain, we're stuck with her for a very long time........thanks Maverick
Pathetic.
Regardless of how you feel about her politics, you must admit that she is absolutely right about her treatment by the media. Major media outlets got lazy and began reporting unfounded rumors from the internet as fact. If you disagree with her politics, you won't be too concerned with this fact. However, when the same lack of journalistic integrity is pointed at some you do admire, you will be outraged. Unfortunately, you will have allowed the practice to take root and will have no one to blame but yourself.
"alikeness"?
More indications of a continued problem in your brain. Her "war on the media" is her feeble attempt to make sure her name stays in the news. Perhaps if she is so disappointed in the media in general, she should stop granting interviews and mouthing off? Perhaps she should concentrate on her job and family? Just thinking...
Welcome to politics in the real world
the only person who seems to be talking about Sarah Palin's kid is Sarah Palin.
We .. are ... not ... interested.
What I find interesting is that (1) a "mainstream paper" like the Anchorage Daily News is still investigating a "story" like who Trig's real mother is while (2), at the same time, if Governor Palin reports that the mainstream media is doing this, (3) the MSM says it is bloggers and not them who are doing the reporting/investigating, (I reference the USA Today follow up story on last week's release of the Governor palin interview for the upcoming movie). If daily newspapers like the Anchorage Daily News are still investigating this, then Governor Palin has a correct complaint about the treatment of this issue...
Ok, I looked up "alikeness" in a dictionary. The dictionary said the correct word is "likeness" but I'll give her the benefit of the doubt on this one. Perhaps "alikeness" is similar to "irregardless" instead of "regardless".
Sarah jus be stickin a few mora dem ledders in dere aginn.
Sarah, you are too dumb to realize just how dumb you are. You really should just sit down and shut up.
Can we just please let Palin fade back into obscurity, please? I'm sick and tired of having to read about her blaming the media for having the "nerve" to print her idiotic quotes. She and Joe The Plumber both want everyone to believe that the media is misrepresenting them, just because they don't like seeing themselves for what they really are: a couple of hacks that will never be in any history books. Please stop reporting on them!
What about pathetic reichwing talking heads like Hannity and Limbaugh who lie for hours every day?
“bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers (repuglicons) who lie.”
That's the same way I feel about Palin the "pastor-tician". That was the entire basis of the McCain/Palin campaign strategy.
One of these days she's going to learn to not take offense at other people's opinions and just shut up about it. Of course every time she opens her mouth the media thinks it's something newsworthy (NOT!) and that's probably the real reason she continues to make inane statements.
She says "you have to let it go." So why is she still talking about it. Her 15 minutes were up when she stood weeping next to McCain on Election Night. Why are we still hearing from her?
Please... just shut up already. We don't care what you have to say any more.
Sarah your 15 minutes were up 30 minutes ago..... WHO CARES!!!!
Sarah Palin: Just shut up!
One of these days she's going to learn to not take offense at other people's opinions and just shut up about it. Of course every time she opens her mouth the media thinks it's something newsworthy (NOT!) and that's probably the real reason she continues to make idiotic statements.
My only hope for Govenor Palin is "That she become the Republican Nominee for President in 2012",,,,,Everytime she opens her mouth she guarantee's President Elect Obama a second term......Go Sarah...
Ya, just like the pathetic losers who spread the ideas of Obama "pallin' around with terrorists" and allowing the fears of him being a secret communist Muslim.
Those pathetic people need a life.
LADY, & I AM USING THE TERM SOOO LOOSELY,THERE
IS NO DOUBT & IT IS THE LORDS TRUTH, THAT YOU
ARE AN IDIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIOT.
The election is over. I don't see why bloggers and the press keep pestering her. Lieberman and Edwards weren't subjected to this after their failed VP bid. Geeesh...
So, Governor Palin, is it just the bloggers who make up stories about you that annoy you? I'd be interested to hear your comments about the bloggers who make up stories about PE Obama's citizenship, his religion, and his "palling around with terrorists."
an alikeness?
The lady is right! It's all about getting the "story" and it appears that most reported is a story with little facts and when the facts are given they are taken completely out of context. You would think the media could at least get the age of someone correct. I can listen to the same issue at least three times and the topic has been three different ages. How about getting the factual, correct and true stories.
some bloggers do a lot of harm not being accurate, being mean, nasty. To all.
Sarah, get over it, you lost!! If you want people to stop talking negatively about you, quit giving interviews where you sound foolish. Hard to believe you are responding to bloggers. You are only popular with the far left neo-cons
Palin is determined to keep this garbage goin'.
GO AWAY!!!!!!
Well, Palin sometimes what goes around comes around. You said Obama palled around with terrorists, and that was a lie.
Hahahaha – Keep talking. we all need a good laugh
just go away already...please do us a favor....nobody cares.....
Sarah, it seem like the more people insult you, the more you keep coming back for more. Why don't you go to Israel and pal around with your buddy Joe the Plumber. You might even be able to see Russia from Israel.
Go Away. Go away. Go Away. Go away. Go away. Go away.
I know that you don't speak or understand English very well so let me interpret what I have just said.
GOOOOOOO AWAYYYYYYYY and don't come back
She's obviously not above the fray, or she wouldn't ackowledge drivel posting anonymously. Just getting a reaction is what the bloggers want, and she just keeps giving it to them.
Why are you continuing to give space to this Alaska hillbilly and her family. . . her 15 minutes was over long ago. Don't make her news and she'll fade back into the monosyllabic woods for the rest of the long cold winter. STOP IT ALREADY!
"You have to let it go,” she said. So, Sarah, JUST DO IT! And, stay in Alaska.
GOVERNOR Palin, the only thing that is boring is you. Govern Alaska and leave the lower 48 alone. I wish you and your family well...otherwise I could care less about you.
Get 'em girl! Don't let them bully you around!!!
Fair enough, Sarah, we're tired of boring, anonymous, pathetic governors who are proudly uninformed. Thank you, though, for reminding us that we can see Russia from Alaska. Your foreign policy qualification IS something you should be proud of, though I wouldn't necessarily consider it an "alikeness" with more qualified candidates.
Ya betcha.
"You have to let it go,” she said. “Even hard news sources, credible news sources — the comment about, you can see Russia from Alaska. You can! You can see Russia from Alaska. Something like that — a factual statement that was taken out of context and mocked — what you have to do is let that go."
Obviously, someone is not even taking their own advice.
If she were to actually answer the questions posed to her then it MIGHT be newsworthy.
All of this 'bashing' she is doing shows what a hypocrite she is.
There are many other stories out there worth reporting on, Sarah is as news worthy as the dirt on the bottom of my shoe.
Hold up....it seemed perfectly acceptable for her to spew forth lies about Obama, during the campaign. Why is she complaining about lies being told about her now?? My mother would say she can dish it out, but she can't take it.
I have no sympathy for you, Sarah Palin. You reap what you sew...and you've got lots of reaping ahead of you.
THANK GOD THE VILLAGE IDIOT FROM ALASKA WAS NOT ELECTED VICE PRESIDENT.-–HER VOICE ALONE COULD CAUSE WORLD WAR THREE..
Get another life. You lost because of you don't blame anyone else. If you can't answer simple questions why the hell should anyone vote for you?
Dear Mrs. Sarah Palin;
There's this old saying that comes to mind:
"It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt."
Alas, further ignorance. Bloggers aren't press or media. I do however find it funny that Gov. Palin had no problem quoting blogger material as fact while on the campaign trail.
Alaskans are about as similar to New Yorkers as Palin is to sanity...
I live in Alaska. Pathetic Palin (alias Bimbo Barbie) is our governor. She is the pathetic one. A good leader concentrates on the positive and ignores meaningless trivia. A good leader doesn't blame others for their shortcomings.
I am so tired of this women, downright annoyed by her, on the other hand, the more she"interviews"the more she hurts herself. She is truly on a self distruction path. She is pathetic.
And while I am at it with my "blogging lies" I would certainly appreciate it if the woman could speak proper English! If her attitude is that she "shoulda been callin' some of the shots" then I shudder to think what would have happened if McCain had won the election. I am beginning to think that her whole schtick that she is using is made up...no one could be that moronic.
Please stop these pathetic attempts to stay in the news.
Better to remain silent and to appear a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
Sort of like the Arab world constantly telling me how much they believe in peace – the more they try to tell me the less I believe them.
Well this lady keeps trying to tell us how smart and qualified she really is and the more she talks the dumber she appears.
To all of you who continually ask Palin bashers to leave her alone: Do you see how hard it is? She won't go away! "An alikeness." Holy cow.
Sorry Sarah, I know that in Alaska everyone is decent, honest, and good hearted, but the rest of the nation is filled with evil, dishonest, hateful liberal Democrats.
Well then why dont you let it go, you are appearing to be very thin skin and vinditive, not good qualities for a Presidential hopeful, and please make up your mind, you blame Mccain for letting you speak to Katie Couric a 2nd time after you said it was a mistake you did not do more interview's, people see through you Sarah Palin, you dont belong on the national stage,stay in Alaska where they try to vote in Senators who have been convicted of felony corruption charges, in other words low standards will work. by the way if your fed up with bloggers why dont you cross that border into Russia where freedom of speech is not held in high reguard.
CNN:
Please tell me how I can get my 15 minutes of fame extended for as long as you have extended this dim wit's and Joe the (not really a) Plumber's?
I'm no Palin fan. I can't wait for her to go back and focus on running Alaska. However, I have to agree with her on the press perpetuating the Trig myth. If I was in the subject of the national media, and folks kept questioning whether my kid was my kid, I'd be pretty hostile to them.
No matter what we think of Palin's politics, experience or capabilities, it is time we stop dragging her family through the mud.
She honestly refuses to go away!!!
Sarah honey...stand in line. There's not a public figure out there that doesn't become the target of malicious lies, innuendo, and accusations. All the candidates suffered from all sorts of slings and arrows on blogs, in the news, and newspapers.
Get over it...if you have any thought of throwing your hat in the ring in 2012, I suggest you get a tougher skin and learn to roll with the punches.
You're starting to sound like one really bitter VP loser...taking swipes at everyone around you. You said, "Yes" to McCain, and if you haven't watched witnessed previous campaigns (say for example, 2000 and 2008), then you're just plain clueless. Or, perhaps as Katie Couric somewhat uncovered, you really didn't read any newspapers or magazines all that often.
Lady...get a backbone, and quit blaming everyone else for your problems...learn to be humble and self-effacing...and learn to laugh at yourself. If not, you won't last 5 minutes running for office in 2012...the Republican party will have your head on a platter. Maybe you need to spend some time "palling around with terrorists" to find out just what the real political world is really like.
bloggers who refer to themselves as "journalists" are fast catching up to lawyers on the integrity chart.
If palin was taking advice from herself, she would be taking advice from an idiot. BTW palin, people are not laughing at you because you can see Russia from your house, they are laughing because you said that was your foreign policy experience.
republicans, they think the more time that goes by people will forget what actually happened. Like bush "History will judge my time as president" yes and history will judge you as a failure.
Oh, please . . . all the facts which stated the series of events up until Sara's claim to have given birth was and is too unrealistic to have happened the way she stated they happened. I believe that was also concluded by a real physician who also stated that it was not possible.
As for the bloggers, they were only expressing their views just as they saw fit, including myself. From the beginning, millions of bloggers/people saw what I saw – Saras wrongful intentions and most importantly of all, her lack of intelligence ON EVERYTHING.
Sara is a self-centered person and millions and millions of people are Extremely Thankful she lost.
Of course she is right. It's disgusting how our society now no longer wants to actually discuss anything. People just want to bash those who don't agree with them and start with the namecalling.
I wonder what else was in the interview...I doubt it was just this one question. However, I'm sure the bashers will presume Sarah Palin called for an interview just to make this point, and they will bash her for it.
From what I've seen of Sarah Palin posting on this site, this will get a hundred or so comments. The bashers can't help but bash her, and at the same time wonder why people are giving her attention. Can't you Palin haters understand, if these articles continue to get a lot of response, negative or positive, there will be more of them?
This train wreck keeps getting worse every day. And sadly, I can't turn away.
Talk about a great month – Palin practically ensures a solid Demo majority, and Bush leaves office.
What could be better?
Bloggers are worthless.
LIES?????
Kinda like when a certain governor from Alaska repeatedly said she said "NO" the the Bridge to Nowhere even though she actively sought out money for it from Congress?
Sarah, are those the kind of lies you are talking about?
Oh please....would this woman go away already? Nothing was taken out of context. She 's someone that shouldn't be a governor let alone the Vise President of the US!
The media maybe getting out of hand with the whole story about her son. Now, what upsets me & others and drives them to do crazy things, during the time of the campaign it BOTHERED me so much to hear how she supposedly is an erxpert not only in Autism but other disabilities. To me that a low blow to us mothers who have kid's with disabilities. And she sure flaged her son around the canmpaigns. She doesn't know anything and never will. If we're going to ask anyone about Autism, it should be Jenny McCarthy not Palin.
How much longer will have to hear her whining!!!!!
Please, someone make it stop!!!!!
She needs an image consultant. Everybody who didn't already think she was crazy is going to change their minds.
As little as I like the Republican Party, I think Sarah Palin is beneath even its standards. Every time she opens her mouth, she self-destructs a little more.
Open letter to Sarah Palin: Dear Sarah, please ignore the ignorance of some of the American people. We all know that the majority of the news outlets are liberal and that there "so called" journalists are left-wingers. I voted for you and Senator McCain and I cried when I heard the reports that the two of you had lost the election. I am hoping for the best for this country and I sincerely hope that Obama can turn things around, but I am thoroughly tired of you having to defend yourself , your family and your previous statements made during the election race. I am proud of how you have handled yourself and I hope you are equally as proud. You were picked to be the vice presidential running mate for the greatest country in the world. This is a wonderful honor and I am sure you would have done a great job. Forget all the gossip and vile slanders of the press, continue doing a great job for Alaska, take care of your family and yourself, and I will waiting for you to try again in 2012!!! Good luck and if you ever get down to Georgia, look me up. I'll make you some of MY venison chili.
Uh. Wow. SHE is pathetic.
I love Sarah Palin and think she has been attacked by the media in a way that did not happen with the male candidates. She has proven she is a smart, strong headed woman and has a lot to offer. I think the media should move on and let her be instead of just trying to find things to create about her. Bottom line is she is a woman who has moral and values and stands up for them and many of the media slamming her are VERY liberal!!
PLease QUIT covering this woman-–then maybe she will GO AWAY!
And we should care, why?
I love Sarah palin’s no-nonsense approach to the issues. She’s not one of these good ole boy types that does nothing but worry about how many pet projects he or she might get.
The only thing that is pathetic is Palin's constant whining and blaming others for her obvious short comings, which are many.
Title reads "Palin slams bored...", should read "Palin is bored [with governorship]". She's keeping her name alive in hopes for radio/TV life after politics, because this sort of foolishness....endless string of interviews and this latest battle with the media ( and the Internet)..... can only confirm to her constituents that she is totally distracted from dealing with their well-being during this time of economic hardship for the nation.
The Anchorage Daily News has been waiting for her to confirm that Bristol and Levi aren't drop-outs, which she called the ADN on and asked them to retract. They said they would but would want proof. never heard from her again........
Sarah? Do you mean like: Obama hangs around with terriosts-Obamas birth Cert isn't real-Obamas a muslin-Do you mean those bloggers?
Sure you can see Russia from Alaska. You said this in response to a question about your foreign policy experience. So how is that taken out of context? Explain me again Sarah, how does seeing Russia from Alaska qualify as foreign policy experience? I respect you for the work you've done in Alaska, but face it Sarah, you were completely clueless when it came to foreign policy. I suggest you go back and see those interviews yourself.
Peace and Happy New year !
"That's an alikeness," is grammatically incorrect.
Just because you can see Russia from Alaska doesn't mean you are knowledgeable about Russia OR foreign policy. THAT is why that comment is mocked over and over.
palin was the candidate that came off as a pathetic idiot, the press just reported what she said. palin was a journalist major in college, you would think she would pronounce you instead of ya in hear vocabulary.stay in alaska sara,please.
No one claimed you can't see Russia from Alaska. People just wondered what that had to do with whether Palin knew anything about international relations. We;re still wondering.
Most Americans don't seek the political spotlight for the very reason that it is a spotlight. No one can completely control what it shines upon.
Hasn't she been interviewed about this like 10 times already? Doesn't she understand that people would probably leave her alone if she just shut up? She's just opening herself up to more ridicule. I could sit here and make fun of practically everything she said, but I won't...because she's not worth it.
"Bored, pathetic" bloggers didn't call you, Gov. Palin; a "respected" newspaper did.
Bloggers, on the other hand, are known to a) squash rumors b) put the MSM to shame over their "fair and unbalanced" coverage and c) encouraged by leaders of this country, including President Bush and the military.
Bloggers supported you, and promoted you before you were even on the radar as a VP possibility. And yes, if you can't tell, I'm a blogger, and I continue to support you.
Can we get past this yet? She has had her day in the sun, she didn't win, and now we are just rehashing her issues to keep her in the limelight. Why are we still listening to a woman who can do anything but complain about how she has been portrayed by everyone else, she takes no responsibility for herself, she just blames it on others. Enough already.
I would have so much more respect for her if she would not respond to the non-sense. She continues this catfight with the media instead of letting it go. I think that is why so many people are sick of her.
She comes off so insecure, if you are so easily aggravated then the big league politics of Washington are not for you!
". . . . what you have to do is let that go . . . . "
Then why can't you? You lost; go away.
Oh, and remember those "lies" you told and the "ridiculous" questions you have concerning the PE, that you said "if it came up again I would certainly . . . .? Karma, baby, karma!
By the way, where is Todd? He was always with you on the campaign trail and there questions raised regarding him being so "involved" with you "governing" Alaska. Part of his response included the statement " . . . we are very close. . . ." Why are you now "standing alone" while conducting these interviews?
She has a problem within her self.
Any hope to run again for public office that Mrs. Palin had is now dashed. The Internet is not a forgiving place. Oh, and blogs are on the same level as newspapers now. Thanks for playing, Sarah!
ah.........what?
Boring, pathetic lying politicians like palin annoy me. Will she ever shut up?
Didn't hear Sarah screaming like this as nutjobs STILL push the many times debunked "born in kenya, thus not a citizen" garbage...
maybe she MISSED that story in ALL the newspapers she reads.
Palin is the one, who is keeping these stories going so she can look like she is being attacked. I really doubt anyone called and asked her that question again. For some reason, she thinks this is helping her.
Why is the news media still giving this airhead air time? We wouldn't critique what you had said if you weren't so uninformed, Knucklehead!
You are governor of Alaska which is a state in a federation of states, not a corporation.
Yes, you are 44 yrs old and is the governor, what does that say about your state?
Does that include Drudge? It's good to know that the virtually unknown VP candidate thought she could tell the McCain campaign that she'd be running the shots. Was she also going to install Todd and Levi in government positions?
When will this annoying woman go away!! Let's hope it's soon,!!!!
Sarah, the Left hates you because you're the real deal.
They have to tear you down because you don't condone killing the unborn because it might cause an inconvience in one's lifestyle of self-indulgence.
You're not afraid to call a spade a spade, and if it's one thing the Liberals can't stand, it's the unvarnished truth.
Since it's -50 degrees up there in Alaska I can understand why you needed to get some different clothes while campaigning in Florida last September....that's just too much common sense to ask from the Dems.
Why are you still talking?
Is CNN going to report on every interview Governor Palin gives to local press? This obsessive behavior is quite unbecoming of a major media outlet.
By the way, 3 anonymous sources from within CNN have stated that CNN executives have actively pushed for the destruction of Sarah Palin because of her apparent political viability. Good luck with that.
Let's be done with this pathetic woman. There are so many more under-exposed people and causes worthy of putting the spot light on. I'm really tired of mindless, clueless and soulless individuals becoming very wealthy and popular because of the stupid sh#* they do or say!
Let's make 'character' cool again, and stop sinking to the lowest standards to stay amused or entertained. Let's put bettering yourself from the 'inside', or educating yourself at least about the profession you've chosen back at the top of the list of ways to improve your life.
I've got 10 and 12 year old daughters I'm trying to raise. I do want them to know that they can be a Governor or President. However, how they carry themselves is what makes all the difference(OBAMA).
These are the last things I have to say regarding Sarah Palin.
If you keep having this desire to print non-news stories from people completely incompetent and incoherent and non-sensical, why not just interview third-graders and post the results?
They will be of equal gibberish, and a good deal more honest.
I believe that Trig is Sarah's baby, since he is a Down's Syndrome child.
It is more likely for an older mother to give birth to a Downs Syndrome childe than a young mother. Makes sense to me.
She does admit saying she could see Russia from Alaska. She might want to remember that you can see Canada to and no matter what she thinks, they are a foreign power and a smidge closer than Russia.
The most important thing that she did was the flip comments and the continuation of the "Joe the Plumber" charade. That sunk McCain's run for presidency and I don't see him being able to run again next time. The support just isn't there.
Sarah needs to understand that not all Republicans are Thumpers or New Conservatives. The Republican party has lost us "paleo" conservatives. There are other candidates that match our needs more.
Mrs. Palin, the problem is not the media. Its that she has not been forthright in answering questions about anything. I don't think most people care one way or another whether the child is hers but the fact that there has not been a straight forward disclosure of medical records or a straight forward explanation regarding the events surrounding his birth – flying from Texas while in premature labor, knowing the baby was disabled – has cast doubt on her own honesty and integrity. For a woman that claims to have studied journalism she must have been away the day that the course on role and responsibility of the press to investigate public figures was taught.
Yawn and move on....
How pathetic she is. She talks about how she has been treated, but yet she had people all riled up, not once, but a few times, when she accused Barack of 'palling around with terrorists' If she does not get a little more smarts, as well as not saying 'stupid' things, she can never run for President. What a joke!!
If CNN publishes one more stupid headline about Sarah Palin, I'm going to stop using this site. I'm completely serious about this. Being that she's no longer running for Vice President, how can CNN justify running at least 2 stories a day on CNN.com with her name in the headline? How exactly is she basically the most newsworthy figure in politics right now?
Hey Sarah, if you are reading these blogs that means that you understand that we don't want to hear from you, your family or anything that has to do with Alaska that pertains to you.
Go away!!! Stop talking to the media. You need help woman!
What an idiot Palin is........ This rumor has been out for months. There will always be conspriacy crazies. If she would just shut up , the rumors would fade . If anyone thinks this woman is mentally stable enough to be president someday please move to Alaska. Palin can not go a day without being in the media. I frankly dont care who Trigs mother is. I read this rumor , thought with the daughters morals it could be possible but can do the math in my head. Why wont this woman stop? Is she that nuts? Unless she doth protest too much. I think shes a lousy mother to Trig anyhow how she shamelessly exploited that lovely child for the campaign
Palin "regretted not taking a greater leadership role". Is this a female George W. Bush? In one week, from today, we will bid farewell to a complete idiot and now Palin comes out with a statement such as this. From an "idiot" to a "dingbat", now this is exactly what this country needs.
the fact is she cannot handle public opinion and we are watching our govt very closely
so WHO paid for Palin's home improvements? Why does she deny Trig? Who really takes care of Trig? What about her boyfriend snowmobile ex partner?
REPUBLICANS MEET YOUR FUTURE. I WILL CONTINUE LAUGHING.
Sarah, you still don't get it. Nobody argued the fact that you could see Russia from your house. They objected to your claims that just your vicinity from Russia automatically gave you foreign policy experience. THAT was the problem with that answer, and no it was NOT out of context.
With the whole "Who is Trigg's real mom" thing, all you had to do was release your health records which you said you would, but very slickly avoided doing it. That would have shut people up for good, unless there was something in there you didn't want them to know...
And if you really think "you have to let it go" then shut the hell up, YOU are the one who keeps bringing it up over and over again, people are ready to forget about you, but you just won't let em.
Jeez girl, get a clue! Good grief!!!
Go.... AWAY!
Does anyone care who is Trigg's mama? Not I, or people I know. Why is this news?
Why does she not shut up and go away?
Politics is an ugly, vocious, media filled world. But it is the world we live in and it seems other politicians seems to manage to make their way in it.
Politicians can't be cry babies. Nothing will get done that way.
Suck it up, Sarah!
Like her or not, she is absolutely right. Many, mostly liberal, bloggers did, in fact, take many of her quotes out of context. For all of us not to believe that Trig was her son was an insult to her; and for those of you who took the "I can see Russia from my back yard" statement as ridiculous, check your geography books – you CAN see Russia from Alaska!
Do you think that any democrat who negiotiated a 60% pay increase wouldn't be under investigation. Sh continually told lies on the trail about "the digging going on back home." When the pipeline is ten years from starting and the bridge to nowhere that we have her on tape saying she needed in the debate. About selling the airplane on e-bay. She was against teaching advanced sex education in schools and then ends up with the family situation she has. She has two severely disabled sons at home and now a son-inlaw and daughter without a degree of GED. I'm not saying she can't be Governor, but I would stay a little closer to home instead of telling us how to live. Some of the people in the "bad areas" have done OK without her.
How did this woman get to be so perfect in just one lifetime? And its uncanny that everything negative about her is from fringe sources full of cooks and losers, but all positive press is right on spot? She is the biggest victim of plots and subtrafuge in modern history. This liberal press..... what a menace to her career. I almost feel sorry for her..................HAHAHAHAHAAHAH Not ever ! Shes getting just what she deserves. And the more she whines, the less appealing she will be , even to her clones...
Lady the only shots you are qualified are , are shots you aim at the moose you hunt
HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHAHAHAAHAHA
taken out of context? HAHAHAAHAHA
the funniest part is you can see Russia from Alaska, it's just that you have to be on a rock in the middle of no where, one that Palin had never been to at the time she said that, and the part of Russia you see is another rock in the ocean. So to put it back in the context it was so maliciously taken out of, if they are watching Russia up there for us, they are probably pretty bored by now.
Now, I don't think it really matters who Trig's mom is, nor do I doubt Palin had the child, but seriously, this story is hilarious. I feel bad that I contribute to her continuing in the news by reading this crap, but it's sooooo funny.
By the way, CNN had a story about that and most people on that island didn't even know who she was.
with all the problems we are facing here and abroad, can't Palin think about anything but herself and her 2010 election plans? Enough already! I am tired of hearing her and about her. The rest of us have moved on – she should, too.
She's home and she's bored. And I for one am relieved.
Stoopit, moosehunting governors who lie annoy me. No one disputed that you could see Russia from Alaska. That fact just did NOT give you foreign policy credentials, you nit wit.
Go Away, WAAAAAAAAAAAAY Away!
Does anyone care who is Trigg's mama? Not I, or people I know. Why is this news? It wasn't relavent when she was running for VP, and it's not relavent now.
Please make it stop...I don't know how much more laughter I can take.
Oh my god. Would you please shut up already. I think we've all had enough of you and Joe the Idiot.
Once again–just from these quotes–we see the ignorance of this woman! How she ever earned a degree in journalism is beyond me! They probably wanted to be done with her once and for all, so they awarded her one!
Let's hope she stays where she is!!
I used to think Palin was a smart politician who knew how to play the political field. Now, I'm not so sure. If she knew what was best for her, she'd lay low and quit complaining. People are sick of her. She likes to complain about the media, but she doesn't hesitate to jump into the limelight, does she? This is 2008 – political bloggers are here to stay and people listen to what they have to say. She needs to realize the election is over and get over it. Also, the campaign wasn't hers to call the shots. It was John McCain's. She was the VP candidate – the side kick.
Also, CNN and other media need to stop giving this woman a soap box until she does something newsworthy again.
Hey Caribou Barbie.....you wanted the spotlight....now take it....remember when you were instigating people to call Prez. Obama a muslim terrorist.....can't handle the taste of your own medicine huh!
Governor Snowflake is making me dizzy trying to now "spin" all of her verbal gaffes into something resembling coherence. My sources in Alaska tell me that the folks up there have "just stopped talking about her" and another Republican has already thrown his hat in the ring for her seat. Looks like her fifteen minutes are almost up! Good for us, probably bad for Rush and Billo!
Honestly. Enough already. She lost, she is not the Vice President. Her opinion does not matter, stop running stories on this woman. No one cares, no one wants to hear it, just go away.
Bla, bla bla, doesn't this woman know when to STOP! She is pathetic. Go back to Alaska and stay there – no one wants to hear about you.
Palin....You are still around! Now fighting bloggers.
The way you present yourself Madan Palin makes people trust you that much. You stoop, too low and I am starting to think that, this is actually your level. The way you think, the way you talk, the way you pick your fight make me wanna move move a motion to ignore all your interviews. You keep annoying me.
Pathetic, thats what she was looking, when she was grating her teeth to remind Katie Couric, that she is not the center of universe.
Pathetic, that is what her family looks in the face of all the controversy.
Pathetic, was her conversation with Canadian comedians.
"Okay, more indication of continued problems in the world of journalism." Yep. Giving this bimbo any coverage, press or air time is a definite sign of problems in the world of journalism. She's not yesterdays news; she's yesterdays fish wrap. Go away, Sarah. Maybe you can start a 'fabulous' clothing line at Wal-Mart, but your political career is over.
Even her own State's newspapers don't believe her.
Why does she blame everyone else?
Why is the media so fascinated with reporting on a politician's son and not her stance on the issues? She was a serious contender for second-in-command for our country and she'll be back to play a significant role in politics whether you agree with her or not. News outlets these days have about as much influence and credibility as a tabloid or entertainment magazine.
CNN always brags about being "the most trusted news network" but they fail to acknowledge that Americans rank "the media" as one of the top ten professions/industries that they DO NOT trust. Infact they rank 2nd, right behind used car salesmen. Take that CNN: the most trusted news network. Not hardly.
Sarah, if you really plan to run in 2012-stop the blame game... You have to be thicker-skinned than you are displaying...If you pray God will help you deal with your pain and suffering. Sometimes God quiets the storms and sometimes He quiets His child. I pray that your personal relationship with Jesus will help you see you were blessed to be apart of the storm.
This all seems very Jr. High to me. The sad thing, Palin just keeps the pot stirred up.
I'm sorry, but this woman is insane. If "you just have to let it go", why doesn't she? Thank God Americans had the good sense not to elect her!
Why are still talking about Palin. Is this the best the Repugs can do. Get her out of here.
She knows she lost right?? and no one cares ??PLEASE JUST GO AWAY!!!
PLEASE GO HUNT MOOSE!! OR GO AWAY...............
Back in college, I studied attribution theory - people with low self-confidence/self-esteem attribute their successes to luck and other external causes and their failures to themselves, while people with high self-confidence/self-esteem attribute their successes to themselves and their failures to external causes. Based on this, I would say that Sarah Palin has overwhelming self-confidence and a very strong ego defense mechanism. She spends a lot of time pointing fingers at Tina Fey, Katie Couric, and the media in general and does not acknowledge that she should have been more prepared for her interviews. She could not even answer a question as simple as "what do you read?" Without studying all sides of an issue, she is confident that she knows how to proceed. What is truly sad is that this blind optimism is a characteristic she has in common with President Bush.
Why do we have to continue hearing about this person on a national level? Please keep her up in Alaska.
Well then I am sick of pathological liars like SARAH ' the Incorrigible' PALIN.
I'm tired of hearing Palin slam everyone for her losing the election. Be a woman, Sarah, & take some responsibility for your actions!
Enough of this Monday morning quarterbacking from Palin! Palin appeared ignorant because she is ignorant. The media didn't make her that way......she came that way! Why doesn't she focus on Alaska's problems, (they seem to have plenty), and continue to stay "outside" D. C. and leave the limelight she so desperately seeks to the real politicians.
Spoken like the true trailer trash that she is !
Sarah, no one cares. Really, please give it up, or go join your "alikeness" Wurzlebacher reporting from the front. Your 5 minutes ran out some time ago. You have misoverestimated the publics interest in you.
GO AWAY!!!!....so what the bloggers say. You are an uneducated, fame seeking, lousy mother with an unwed drop out daughter who can't seem to get the father to the alter. But back to governing...Explain this please..how do you intend to balance the budget for Alaska when it is based on $58 a barrel to support the welfare state Alaska is considering oil is now $38 a barrel!!!
Ms. Palin – the point isn't that you can see Alaska from Russia (which apparently you can, from a couple isolated spots. The point is that you claimed this boosted your foreign policy credentials along with some other ridiculous claims about Russians flying over Alaska. Congrats, you can see Russia from Alaska. The news and the terrible terrible bloggers know that you can, in fact, see Russia. They also know that that doesn't mean anything.
Furthermore, I wonder if you have actually been to any of those few random spots in Alaska and actually seen Russia?
Parkville, MO
GO AWAY!!!
who cares ?
Go Away Please!!!!
WHY do you continue to report on Palin? Please, let it go.
Palin needs to review her journalism lessons. Triple-checking by a news source shows due diligence, in part precisely due to the misinformation out there. I am trained to double-check if someone's name is John Smith, and magazines and newspapers - not all by any means, but some - hire fact checkers now who do exactly what Palin describes, which is triple and quadruple check facts, in part to avoid libel and in part simply as best practices. She should be thankful a media outlet is checking its facts; there's a long and honorable line of celebrities who have had grief because of sources not being checked and double checked. And she was in the media, she should know that journalists are trained NOT to necessarily believe everything they hear, regardless of the source. It's not always practised, but if the Pope comes out and says the sky is blue, journalists should in theory find at least 2 more sources to support that viewpoint.
HAHAHA...I wish she would've been "callin' some of the shots." That way the outcome of the election would've been known far earlier. She just has no clue.
WHEN MCCAIN PICKED YOU, HE MUST HAVE THOUGHT HE
WAS OPENING A STRIP BAR, NOT RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT.
It's a sad reflection of the USA when we show the world we have the moral perspective of The National Inquirer. She provided proof she shouldn't have in the first place and still the sicko Pirahna keep biting. I'm fed up with being made to look like I don't care about the running of this country by flippin' anuses. Grow up and be adults.
Palin should understand that keeping her mouth shut will help her from looking stupid. She doesn't get it...there's a ultra minority who are interested in hearing what you have to say, the rest of us love watching someone make a fool out of themselves in public. Palin, people are laughing at you.
Palin is perhaps the numbest person ever to run for office. The republicans are basically extinct-and she's been a real help for that. That and an equally numb person-joe the plummer. With a cast like that-throw in george bush and you can see the overall intelligence level.
My dad used to say dont talk to the republicans about sex cause they'd give sex a bad name. I think he's right.
Bravo Sarah! Just shows the press and bloggers don't know what to say when a straight-shooter levels with them instead of hiding behind half-truths and the outright lies of most politicos. Keep up the good work!

Go away Mrs Palin !
Wow, I can't remember the last time I saw a public figure implode so quickly. At first I actively disliked her, now I'm beginning to just cringe and feel sorry for her every time she says something.
One of the worst mistakes John McCain made was pick Sara Palin for his running mate. My god have we not heard enough from her already. I'm from Canada and I've had enough. She can't admit that she was just not intelligent enough on a wide variety of subjects to help win the election. And her attitude about the media, gimme a break, what do you expect ,your a public figure and this is the path you've choosen for you and your family. And you want to blame everyone else for that too.
All this palin smearing is getting ridiculous.
wow what a crybaby
“Even hard news sources, credible news sources — the comment about, you can see Russia from Alaska. You can! You can see Russia from Alaska. Something like that — a factual statement that was taken out of context and mocked — what you have to do is let that go."
-That just made my day... Thanks Sarah!
It's a sad reflection of the USA when we show the world we have the moral perspective of The National Inquirer. She provided proof she shouldn't have in the first place and still the sicko Pirahna keep biting. I'm fed up with being made to look like I don't care about the running of this country by flippin' anuses. Grow up and be adults.
Welcome to the political world...as long as you are in the limelight it will work both ways..take a lesson from Obama and be cool..you don't see him whining about the groups compiling 'evidence' that he is not an American. At lease you have been spared that!
Oh, please. Regarding the "you can see Russia from Alaska" comment, If the Governor will remember, that was a response she gave to a question about her foreign policy experience. Get real. If that's the best she could come up with, then she deserves every bit of attention to the answer that was bestowed upon her.
Now I don't subscribe to the false rumors about her family but honestly, because she was going for essentially the highest office in our land, the questions asked of her by the media were well within bounds otherwise. We had no idea who she was when McCain picked her, so everything needed to be asked so we could find out who she really is.
Now if she would just exit stage left.
people need to lay off this lady!
I've never agreed with Palin's neo-con, let's-append-the-Christian-bible-to-the-Constitution, politics, but you don't get to be a state governor by being an idiot. And attacking her, personally, never was a reasonable thing to do. Attack her politics, attack her views on the issues, sure. But that doesn't mean it should be open-season on her private life, her family, or the woman herself. If nothing else, the American public didn't know enough about the "real" Palin to attack her–all we ever heard were politically motivated comments that may or may not have had anything to do with the truth.
last i checked, the anchorage daily news is not a blog, but a newspaper. furthermore, it was "bored, anonymous, bloggers' who broke the news about Mumbai's attacks, who rightly criticized the TARP for the lack of oversight (now proving to be true), and didn't Drudge DEFEND palin? What, we should all become as vapid as Gov Palin and believe only that we hear from our pastor, and not apply critical thought?
Can she just go away...
Abolutely incredible how she just goes on and on and on with this drivel
The "Who is Trig's Mommy" story was never a big deal; most on the left dismissed it and no left wing blog ran with the story after mid-September.
Palin, like Bush, focuses on her own twisted sense of political reality, failing to see her own shortcomings, like Bush.
However, since she keeps bringing the subject up, I am now starting to believe that Sarah may not be Trig's mommy.
"She doth protest too much"
Typical Republican. It's OK for her to lie but when someone dares to question her it's a personal attack and the people who raise the questions are the liars, not the one having to answer.
I understand your frustration Sarah but slow your roll girl. You have a huge fan base but allowing the media and Obama cultist to work you into a frenzy is not helping your cause. Just ignore the BS and carry on with your mission. You have an adorable family and no amount of slander can change that. However, you do have to watch the perception you're giving. I'm a hot blooded woman too and I like to speak my piece but sometimes you have to bite your tongue in orger to preserve your future. Hang in there! This democrat woman loves your style!
As much as I was insulted, as a voter, by Palin's nomination as VP, now that the election is over, WHO CARES? With continual talk of her in the media, you're just feeding her need to be in the limelight. I'm fed up with hearing about her. Now that the releif of her not being second in command has sunk in, why should I care if she has babies into her 80's, or if her kids started having babies at 10? It's not my problem. In fact , it's just another reason for Sex Ed. to be taught in school and at home. At least then they'll get to formulate their own opinions on the subject instead of being force fed the beliefs of their parents.
Doesn't she have a state to run? Shut up already woman!
Just stop existing Sarah, no one is interested in you. Take your ignorant stupidity to the Arctic Circle and shoot some polar bears or something.
Sarah Palin is a good person who would have made a great VP. Ssure she was very light on internation issues, so is our new president but thats why smart executives surround themselves with advisors who can support and develope the weak areas. The media has done their best to unjustly slam Sarah Palin how ever and when ever the opportunity came up. The media did this all through the presidential election process and continues to act like morons. I have no use for media sensationalism. We have all this corruption and mistrust in our elected government officials and all the media can do with a good part of their time is to attack Sarah Palin, a women who has more honesty and integrity in one finger than most of the media has in their whole body.

Wilton, NY
God bless her, she is such a sore loser, all she has done is complain
to the media since the election has been over about her unfair treatment, she needs some backbone like Hillary, if your going to run with the big dogs you have to learn to handle them like Hillary can!!!!
If I throw a stick will you go away....your 15 minutes is over.....
I expect a Moose Hall Putsch at any minute!
GET'EM SARAH
Sarah, Please go away.
You are: 1)
To think how much (more) the Republican endangered the country by putting her on a ticket. I guess if you have Geroge W. Bush as president, then there is no limit to your ignorance and your stupidity.
For that is good and decent, please stop covering this woman! This is not news!
If reporters would quit giving her the time of day then maybe she would go away. Unfortunately they say any publicity is good publicity (much like Ann Coulter) and that just keeps this woman in the spotlight. Ignore her and she will crawl back under her rock. Trust me.
She says let it go but she fixates on it.
There were lies about her in the 'blogs' but no worse than anyone else-
Does not she get it- if she would have told the Mcain adivsors she would be calling the shots they would have left her up north in the permafrost to play with her imaginary pipeline-
Why is CNN keeping this woman in the NEWS? I mean seriously, CNN always seems to put something about this woman every day on the ticker!!! She and John McCain lost the election it's over and she is old news. I've really come to respect John McCain because he has moved on and tending to the people business. You would think Palin would do the same being she is the Governor of Alaska!!! JEEZ!!!
Governor Palin would do well to take her own advice...and let it go.
VP candidates for national office who lie really annoy me.
I hope Sarah will be allowed to call the shots in all her future campaigns. However, any 'alikeness' between her and a viable candidate from the republican party will be coincidental.
Palin really should get back to work as governor of Alaska. All of these salvos against the media are looking childish and pathetic. Palin has only heself to blame for most of the coverage she has endured; she clearly was not realy for prime-time, let alone the VP slot, and she didn't have the smarts or the sense to know it. This is what happens to people who are in over their heads who act in such a callow but arrogant way. Shut up, Sarah, and if you plan to be a leader in the Republican party in the future, you'd better go back to school and re-enter the stage more prepared.
Who's bored? How is it this supposed busy Governor has time to respond to all these bloggers on what seems to be a daily basis?
I guess Russia is getting boring to stare at.
Maybe someone can give her and Joe the plumber a radio talk show – or better TV with no sound!
Boy this woman is annoying. She is so whiny. Wah wah wah. You can tell with the messed up names all her kids/grandkids have that this family is a bunch of wackos.
hahhahhahahahhahahahaahhahhahhahaahhahahhaha!!!!!!!
This stupid moron is still yakkin'? Hilarious!
Dear Sarah Palin: I didnt vote for you, would never vote for you, I dont think that you are qualified for national office; having said all of that: You dont have to answer to foolishness ablut your child: What it it's not your child, so what! When you know that the truth is on your side you dont have to answer. Howard Cosell said years ago that you "cannot Argue with ignorance."
SARA PALIN NEEDS AND LOVES ATTENTION GO AWAY YOUR STATE HAS ONE OF THE WORST EDUCATION SYSTEMS AND TEENAGE PREGANCY. YOU DON'T WANT PEOPLE TO HAVE AN ABORTION BUT TEENAGERS CAN JUST SCREW GET KNOCKED UP AND TAX PAYERS FLIP THE BILL. GET LOST AND FIX YOUR STATE
I would have loved to see her call some of her shots, Obama would have won by an even larger margin. Quit giving this dingbat so much airtime.
This woman continues to provide evidence of how unsophisticated and uninformed she is . . . "bloggers" can hardly be considered part of the journalistic world. It's a wonder, too, that she did not seem so upset at the bloggers who attacked President-elect Obama during the campaign. The best thing she can do for her political career (if she truly has any national aspirations) is take herself off the radar for the next couple of years and spend some serious time educating herself.
And people actually voted for this scatter brain?
Is she taking any time to run Alaska or she is being consumed by what people are saying. Sarah let it go and do the job you are being paid to do. You are not the only politician who people say crazy things about just ask Max Cleland in Georgia.
The people of Alaska seem to be getting the short end of the stick in regards to their problems.
So if you can't handle it just go away I am just so bored by you.
Two questions:
Can anyone answer why her comments are still considered newsworthy?
Can anyone that actually voted Republican help me understand how you wanted someone to lead our country that continuously acknowledges that she wasn't one during her campain?
I'm extremely concerned that there was a chance for such an irresponsible person to be our president. It says a lot more about us as Americans than it does her.
If Sarah Palin thinks she can be president of this country because she is govenor of Alaska.... then she should think about this: The population for the ENTIRE STATE of Alaska is about 700,000 people or 0.7 million. The population of New York CITY Is about 8,300,000 or 8.3 milllion.
New York City's population is therefore almost 12 TIMES the population of the entire state of Alaska..... meaning Sarah Palin could NOT be the MAYOR of New York City!!!!! ....much less leader of the U.S.A.!!!!!
Please Sarah, just shut up and go away.
Oh shut up, Sarah. You brought this on yourself, you don't get to whine about it now. Don't blame the press or your campaign managers, you have nobody to blame but yourself for your semi-literate manner of speech, your gossip-worthy behavior and your general behavior during the campaign.
Time to put on your big-girl panties and own up. This is all on YOU.
Why doesn't she take her own advice and "Just let it go". This woman is pathetic. If she wants to disect lies, she should begin with her own campaign stump speeches.
She can't fade away fast enough for me.
This person just needs to shut up and go away. If she spent half the time running her state and family–calling the shots as she puts it–she wouldn't have time to whine!
She "lets this thing go" by continuing to keep "this thing" in the news. I would guess under the circumstances, (and/or her true motives), any news about her would be better than NOTHING. As for her going off on her own, her troubles began when she started "going rouge." Her mouth and her mouth alone- maybe some of those folks who appear to taking unfair advantage of her- realize that her only hope for political fame and fortune-so to speak–is to pay the victim card. In fact, some of these attacks are so over the top, that only people who worry about such things–like right wing conservatives, would ever utter them.
Come on! Why give this idiot any more space. Please, just let her go on her moose hunts and let everyone forget her.

irony is that bloggers slam bored, annoying vp candidates.
Palin doesn't get that most of us dislike her because of her views, policies, and attitudes – NOT because of some media slant or because of some conjured up rumors.
If it's not fair to keep asking questions she's already answered then why did she continue to keep asking internet based questions about Obama that had already been answered? Funny how that can work both ways.
hahahahah too funny.
Thanks to bloggers for vetting Palin within two days AFTER being announced as McCain's running mate. SOMEBODY had to do it!
wink wink
And Sarah's self-inflicted soap opera keeps rolling along...
Hang in there Sarah. We are with you... the crowds' numbers' are the REAL polls!
Enough w/ Palin already. Can't we all just let her crawl back under her rock and return to obscurity? If she wasn't a pretty face, we wouldn't even know who she is, much less have to put up w/ having to continue to hear about her. She's embarrased herself enough already.
You cannot cure stupid no matter how hard you try. Palin, go back to fishing.
Your 15 minutes were up hours ago lady, get off the stage so we can focus on some actual business. No one cares about your hurt feelings, and trying to keep your face relevant for the next few years is not going to make anyone believe you're still a contender.
One of the biggest mistakes Palin fails to realize is that the media will continue to come after you until you release records to nulify or verify facts and timeline.
Obama has to release his birth certificate to prove he was born in Hawaii, and the validity of the certificate was still a subject by many Republican pundits.
So Madam Palin, just telling us you gave birth to Trig or your doctor telling us that is not enough. Releasing a letter of fitness from your doctor with no medical records is not enough...and if you dont like it all, then just ignore the media and go away.
But i dont think you want to go away, so give us the facts and let the professional medical teams at CNN dissect it all.
GO AWAY SARAH!! YOU ARE NOT POPULAR! NO ONE LIKES YOU! IF YOU CALLED ANY OF THE SHOTS THE REPUBLICANS WOULD NOT HAVE GOTTEN ONE ELECTORAL VOTE!
She should have been “callin’ some of the shots?” "That's an alikeness"?
She still hasn't figured out that we only saw her for exactly what she is: an ignorant, power hungry, self-centered diva.
If this has taught America ANYTHING, it should be that we dodged a huge bullet keeping this mental midget away from anything remotely resembling a position of influence and responsibility.
I believe that Sarah just said that New Yorkers have an "alikeness" with baseball fans in Alaska. Wow! I never really thought of it that way before. See it's insight like that that the RNC stiffled during the campaign. When she runs for the presidency I look forward to endless insights of this caliber. I can't wait.
Did Palin ever release her medical records? That would stop all of the "Who is real Trig's mom?" questions. If she never released the records, then it's just another case of "I refuse to play by the rules, and will complain when people call me on it."
This woman is nuts. She really thinks the majority cares about her and her lifestyle. She is no better than the fame addicts like Spencer and Heidi.
Sarah who?
Palin's continued attempts to re-write history are the exact reason we should all thank our lucky stars she didnt get elected. She is a wing-nut. The true Wasilla Hillbillies! Seriously, why doesnt she just shut up for a while. She just makes it worse for herself. Her political carreer is over now.
Just go away!
Get off Governor Palin's back. This is a waste of bandwidth (and paper).
The media is looking for any excuse to bash her, any excuse.
Go write a story about Joy Behar.
I agree, leave the baby alone. This is not a subject for discussion and people should just mind their own business. However, my blogs were never anonymous and I always used my own name. Hence, I still feel the same about Sarah Palin. We just got through 8 years of one political lightweight, please, we do not need another one and Sarah, please follow the advice you have been given, keep your head down and learn something intelligent for a change.
I find it hard to believe she was the smarter of the two on the republican ticket.
funny, coming from a woman who didn't hesitate to take cheap shots at Obama.
I hope she keeps doing these interviews because she's making a great case against her own ability to hold higher office. blames the media for her own shortcomings instead of really letting it go? check. can't handle personal attacks? check. can't keep her own campaign in line?? check.
So she doesn't like bloggers who lie? Does this mean she distances herself from the zillions of rightwing filth out there claiming e.g., Obama is not a citizen, Democrats are communists, etc.?
what an empty-suite douchebag
dear god just GO AWAY
This lady is just scratching to stay alive in the media. As for the media, there's something my teaher used to say to use when someone was acting like an idiot all the time. " Just don't pay any attention, you're only encouraging her"
Please, Please, Please stop reporting anything about this nobody!!!
You are an Idiot, Pathetic, and most of all still bringing shame to people of Alska who elected you. My question is: "What the hell were Alskeans thinking when they put the State in your hands?.
If you really care for the US, as you claim you do, you should have declined to be on the ticket as a VP nominee, because a 6 year old Kid would have impressed Ms. Couric, and every other reporter.
Please GO AWAY.
Poor Sara....sounds a little like Richard Nixon....We realize that no moose ever said anything bad about you.....Grow up Sara if you want to play with the big boys and girls!
I don't doubt Trig is her son, but she proved to the world, on her very own, that she's a moron. She's the pathetic one, trying to run for V.P. of the U.S., and doesn't even know what the job entails. 5th graders know more than her. She will always be an imbecile, and she proves it through and through.
It is a sad day when lies are spread as truth. Even worse is the widespread belief in anything written in a newspaper or on the internet. It doesn't appear that critical thinking is important to most people any more. I'm worried about the future of this country. When the bulk of the population doesn't care or stand up for the truth, we are all in trouble.
If you agree with her policies or not, she deserves to be treated fairly and with respect.
Sarah, YOU are the one who claimed your primary foreign policy credential was that you could see Alaska. YOU. Nobody else. And as far as the continued "elites" dig, all of us who needed fewer than EIGHT colleges and SIX years to get our BA's will thank you for going away and leaving the rest of the country alone. If Alaska still wants you, they can have you.
Who cares what Sarah Palin says? She should be ignored. Covering this at all is questionable journalism, in my opinion.
Sarah... What else do you EXPECT after exposing yourself and whole family to media and said many crazy things such as "I can see Russia from my house"??
You are asking for it. You claimed that God called you to race of Vice Presidency. Yet, you lose terribly... All you care is to be a public stunt and sold your family to media for fame!
Nice try...
I am a Democrat, but not so much so that I completely disrespect Republicans. I have many Republican friends, and I respect many Republican leaders. But, if this woman becomes the leader of the Republican Party, God help all of us, Democrats and Republicans alike.
Where are all of the lively comments I enjoy reading so much? Have you finally gotten tired of trashing Sarah?
Does this woman never shut up?
at least she can show her childs birth certificate, can obama show his?
Does anybody else feel like throwing up after reading this article? I feel like I just got off of a boat and I'm suffering from sea sickness. She is STILL all over the place! I almost want to tell the poor woman to give it up. She's not convincing anyone of anything at this point. And it's obvious that she is still craving the limelight. She should go take care of her family and leave the world be.
Enough already! Shut up! If you don't like the media WHY do you keep talking to them????? The only reason they keep wanting you to give interviews is so you will say something else that is stupid and make us all laugh.
What is Palin's opinion of pathetic VP candidates who lie about their credentails and accomplishments and spread lies about their opponents?
Is it just me or is she blaming everything possible but herself?
Good gracious- this poor woman needs to practice some of what she preaches.... "Let it go" would include her not dredging up all of her hurt feelings and angst regarding her loss in November. I swear, a college intern in politicial science has more sense than she does when it comes to media relations and how to let a story die. Yikes... and to think she could have been No. 2...
Why is she so defensive about this? She is just creating more controversy about Trig's real mom! If Palin really wants to stop this, go on Maury and get a DNA test!!
Palin's attempt to stay in the spotlight by repeating old rumors from blogs is a pathetic attempt to maintain public attention. Maybe she could try and get serious and talk about issues that matter instead of talking about herself. Of course, she'd need to have some indepth understanding of the issues and that would mean, oh shoot, preparation and work.
Did Palin EVER release medical records stating anything other than she was healthy? Why not??? She has a lot to hide. It is obvious she is spoiled rotten when it comes to things going her way ....I guess she will never stop complaining and trying to put herself in the spotlight even when it is overwhelmingly apparent we do not wish to hear about her and her idiot statements. This country is so much brighter than that. Did her water break in Texas and she boarded a plane for hours back to Alaska to have baby and Bristol had mono and was absent from school for months but then turned up at the hospital? OK to go to hospital but not school? GEEZ enough is enough we get the picture a hundred ways
Dear Governor Palin,
Please, for your sake and ours, give it up already. You are irrelevant. Washed up. Lately, you've crossed the line from irritating to outright pathetic.
Stop attacking the media and the "world of journalism": while I cannot possibly understand why anyone still cares about you and your (long gone) fifteen minutes of fame, reporters REPORT the news. You see the connection? For some reason, you still qualify as news, though I'm fairly certain that stories about you exist only to create more material to "The Daily Show."
You are a laughing stock. The only reason you were chosen to be John McCain's running mate is the fact that you are a woman. It's a shame that he managed to pick the stupidest woman to ever grace my television news and Newsweek.
Stop the interviews. Stop trying to pull the spotlight in your direction. Bury your head underneath the snow and hide there until the world manages to forget that a disgrace like you ever existed. Then maybe you might be worthy of a smidgen of respect.
Go away, Gov. Palin. Please, just go away!
McCain and the RNC should be bitterly ashamed of themselves for foisting this yammermouthed nitwit upon the nation.
Not that I'm holding my breath or anything.
As a liberal i feel that in some ways the media did give her (Sarah Palin)trouble, but you know what... it's McCain campaign's fault. She did not handle herself properly and she wasn't able to detect those 'gotcha' questions. She was unprepared for the interviews, and frankly it's probably what cost her and McCain the election. They did not prepare her for the national media's onslaught which they should have foreseen. And by they time they did prepare her it was too late. But the media never ceases to amaze me, because they do come out with the most ignorant questions I've ever heard of.
Now she just loves city folks,how touching,an olive branch from a hatemonger.
Earth calling Sarah! Earth calling Sarah! If you equate bloggers with "journalism", you are far more clueless than I thought. And your baseline of "having a clue" wasn't high to begin with.
Dear Sarah Palin,
How much wood wooda woodchuck chuck, if a woodchuck could
chuck wood?
who is Sarah Palin?
Please go back to Alaska and stop talking. You had your 10 minutes and are never were relavant.
Palin is a great example of what happens when our children grow up thinking they know it all, and then are met with people who prove them wrong. This woman should do the GOP a favor and shut her pie-hole
Sorry, I am bored and have nothing else to do today.
YA KNOW SARAH,
EVERY TIME YOU OPEN YOUR ARROGANT, IGNORANT MOUTH
YOU VALIDATE EVERY WORD WE HAVE BLOGGED ABOUT YOU.
She doesnt seem to think much of the American people.
Sara Palin needs to stop and really, really go away. She is making a complete fool out of herself. She needs to go some place and really study about the world, what is a contient and what is a country. She needs to read and understand what she is reading. The people of these United States is sick to death of her. Let it go lady.
wow...she just won't go away....Just like a bad toothache.
Thank God the McCain camp didn't let her call ANY of the shots!
No offense to Palin or her VP bid, but I stopped caring last year. Did she get treated unfairly? Yes, but who in the election wasn't to a degree? Everything got over-analyzed and spun this way and that. It's what the media does. Could'as, would'as, and should'as are at the very least useless. Let it go. Let it be. And move on.
Want to come back for 2012? Okay.
Want to become a Rep. leader? Okay.
Want to retire from the public eye? Okay.
Just whatever, the elections is over.
We are bored with you Palin, you have no substance or depth of intelect.
I'm not sure why anyone would want to interview Palin. She really does not appear very intelligent. Just the fact that she dosnt read the newspaper or keep up with national events. That alone would scare me. She is not material for the lower 48. She should stay up there near russia.
bilge
Of course these bloggers are patheic – just read the comments on this page. A very civil discourse indeed! Good thing we are not governed by such idiots...
Who cares?
Someone please tell me why she is still talking?
"You have to let it go,” she said.
When will she do that? She is seriously talking her way out of running again. so let me get this straight, your teenage daughter just had a baby, her fiance's mother just went to jail, her son has Down's Syndrome and all you are worried about still is the media? Has she even done any legislating since she has been back in Alaska?
She thinks double-, triple-, quadruple-checks of who is Trig's real mom are annoying. Hey, atleast it didn't go to the supreme court as did the ridiculous questioning of the citizenship of president-elect Barack Obama, but something tells me she has no problems with the "Bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers" that fueled that lie.
Palin would do herself a favor to stay out of the spotlight. For as true as some of her comments in this latest interview are, her comments are coming off as whining. If she has future political ambitions (and, knowing her character, I'm sure she does), she'd be wise to build her image and political capital through a *restricted* series of interviews, and to go back to governing in Alaska.
Unfortunately for her, Palin has become a bit of an entertainment figure in news cycles today. While readers may be intrigued by her speech and find her something fun to talk about, she needs to be taken seriously. There's no faster way to do that than to stop being a drama queen and start being a governor.
Bloggers don't bother me, unqualified Governors who lie bother me a lot more.
What was that about the "beam in your own eye"? Palin would be a lot more credible if she had been truthful on the campaign trail. It is hypocrites like her that give Christians a bad name
What is Palin's opinion of pathetic VP candidates who lie about their credentials and accomplishement and spread lies about their opponents? I see an "alikeness" between the "pathetic" bloggers and herself.
Palin is an interesting character. The more she talks, the less qualified she appears to run anything. McCain's people didn't let her speak for very obvious reasons. And she keeps trying desperately to rewrite her own recent history but only makes things worse.
And we, the public, love to hear her latest spin on what happened during the campaign. She seems to think the press picked on only her and no one else. My aren't we a little bit self centered.
No one doubted you could see Russia from Alaska although I'm sure many didn't know that before she told us... including me. The problem was, that was her answer to why she is qualified to make foreign policy decisions. That was her "...but I didn't inhale" dumb answer. But rather than let it go and move on, she keeps trying to change the story, which only makes her look petty and is great fodder for the entertainment news. And let's not kid ourselves, when Sarah talks, it is entertainment news, not political news.
Keep talkin' up there Sarah. We love to hear what ya have to say next.
I think we've all had more than enough of Sarah Palin. Please. Enough.
She has hit the mark.... especially with most of the left wing haters that post here.... no better word to describe you all than "pathetic"......
internet censorship bill on its way, in the name of homeland security.
i can see this coming from the neo cons.
shut up sarah, you got caught, you looked like an idiot. get over it.
Sarah Palin, if you are reading this (which you might be, due to your recent obsession with the media) please GO AWAY. Your 15 minutes of fame are over. Americans saw through your charade and picked the better candidates for president and vice president. You need to get over it and spend your time doing your jobs as governor of Alaska and mother.
Sarah, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE go away!!! Just leave us alone! We simply don't care about you, your attention-seeking ways, & your hillbilly family.
"You have to let it go."
And yet, Sarah, here we are.
Sarah, get ready for some more bored, anonymous, and pathetic bloggers who lie...
I wish Palin would quit trying to "fix" her reputation. The damage is done – it's over. Forget it – no one is interested in her opinions.
Sarah, the reason why many of us adore you is that you seem to be the only politician, other than the Bush's and McCain, who have had to really show some substance. Bush I & II both actually FLEW high performance aircraft in REAL combat. McCain, the same, but with the added craziness of being a POW. You actually were raised to hunt. NOT a normal girl-thing in America. AND, you field dress your own game for actual consumption. There is just something to beholden a real person rather than the fake mouth-tools that have legs in Washington. Keep up your WORK. We real people are all rooting for you.
Katie Couric: "What do you read?" (obviously a tainted flame bait librel question")
Sarah Beyond The Palin: "I read Rush Limbaugh on the radio"
Ok, I am pathetic & I lied about the above statement.
But I am not anonymous: I keep tryin' to change that wacky family name I have.
But, admit it, can't you just visualize the possibility of the above exchange?
Dear Ms. Palin,
We'll stop talking about the stupid things you say when you stop saying them. Don't blame the media because you cited as evidence of your foreign policy exerience the fact that Russia can be seen from Alaska. This statement was NOT taken out of context by the media; it is you who are trying to remove the colntext to make it sound like a simple factual statement. It was the context in which you said it that made it stupid, and the fact that you keep bringing it up is even more stupid.
I'll gladly take waterboarding over this!!!! Please make her stop, someone, anyone!!
poor pitiful palin.
Dear Sarah,
Please just shut up and go away.
"Taken out of context?" – Palin was asked what qualifications she had in the area of foreign relations, and she replied that "you can see Russia from Alaska." The context was what made her statement so ludicrous!
Gov. Palin needs to go away or else say something of substance. So far after the election she has done nothing but criticize the media. She has added nothing of substance to the national dialogue on so many critical topics such as the economy, war in the mid-east, etc. Her comments so far just reinforce the perception of her as a lightweight that she is apparently trying to change. If this is the future of the GOP, the democrats will be in power for the forseeable future.
internet censorship bill on its way in the name of "homeland security".
i forsee this from neocons like her.
shut up sarah, you got caught, you looked stupid. get over it.
Oh, for goodness sakes! Can't this woman find anything better to do than complain or attack? Gee, doesn't she have enough work to keep her busy? Or maybe governors in Alaska don't need to be busy all the time...
Darling, they weren't mocking that a person can see Russia from Alaska. That's not remotely funny. They were mocking the fact that you chose to share that statement with the rest of the country in response to a question about your foreign policy experience. Sweetie, you should follow your own advice. Let it go. Stop giving angry interviews. You performed poorly in the election. Accept it. Let it go. Your career probably isn't over, despite how many of us would like to see it so. You still have some supporters, but if you keep reminding everyone of your screw ups in the election and, worse, playing a childish blame game, you are forever cementing yourself as Sarah "I can see Russia from my house!" Palin.
Why won't this woman go away? She would serve her state, her family and herself better if she would just shut up and do the business of the state of Alaska which she was elected to do. This kind of behavior will certainly not be looked upon as positive should she decide to run for any future office. We are embarking on a truly historical week in American history and to do anything to take away from that is not only in bad judgment but in very poor taste!
This woman just has to be seen and heard. Doesn't she realize that nobody really cares and if she would just shut up and be invisible no one would bother her.
This woman is a nitwit – the percentage of people who tear up during the playing of the national anthem at sporting events is very very low, and that is not an indication of a lack of patriotism, love of God or country, or any other spin that these out-of-power nation-wreckers care to jam and buy this nonsense, and who, most probably, still tear up when they hear the national anthem.
Yes, maybe you can see Russia from Alaska. But that's not the point. The point is that being able to see Russia from Alaska does not give you foreign policy experience. Is Sarah Palin that slow?
I think that Sarah is Triggs real mom. But given her nature of distorting the truth and reaching low levels to obtain her objectives, she will always be questioned or doubted on her word. This is not the news media or bloggers, this is Sarah playing the blame game. She created the character that she wanted and now she doesn't like what she has seen. She doen't like what she portrays in front of the camera, though she is driven to be in front of it in her power struggle.
Alright Sarah, you've had your 15 minutes. We've heard plenty of your folksy rhetoric at this point. Please go away now.
Palin is in the lead for Whiner of the Year and it's only Jan 12.
Uh... Is she going to read this article? Because I really think she needs to let it go. Woo-Sah!!
I have 2 words for you....
GO AWAY!!!!
Cmon CNN...cut me a break
Your comment is awaiting moderation.
Oh, where do I begin?
First of all, bored, anonymous bloggers are NOT the media.
And what about Vice-Presidential candidates…you know, the ones who call themselves Christians…who incite racist hatred and vitriol by lying and saying that Obama palled around with terrorists? Are you exempt from your own contempt?
And will you PLEASE learn the English language? Alikeness? Is that really a word?
And now a message for CNN. Will you PLEASE stop covering this narcissistic fruitcake?
Isn't it time for Ms. Palin to go away now? Her 15 minutes is way over. She does herself a disservice every time she opens her mouth. I can only hope the Republican Party can find someone better for their next Presidential ticket.
please stop it cnn... who gives a ____ about her anymore.... please its more important things going on in the world! this is a non story
Are you serious?!? After she implied that Obama was possibly 'an unrepentant terrorist' sympathizer she has the nerve to call bloggers and others liars?!? This woman is Bush 2.0 and worse in almost every way
Palin you are a disgrace to our Party..please go home and bake some cookies..it's over...your five minutes of fame is over...have a moose burger on me...I'll pay....we all know the truth and the truth sometimes hurts...John McSame made a major mistake and gambled our hopes away by picking a lying, thieving, unfit suppose to be Hockey Mom that pimped her kids out like you...just go away already....PLEASE
Why doesn't she let it go? She's the one who keeps granting interviews. And if she's upset about the continued questions regarding Trigg, she is the one who kept the pregnancy a secret until the very end. What are normal people to think?
Oh, Dear Lord. Please let this egomaniacal moron fade away!
If you can't stand the heat, get out Palin. You're nothing but a pathetic loser who is blaming everybody else for your loss. Go away – please and we'll stop calling you on every stupid thing you say and do.
When is she going to shut up and dissapear dont she knows that her fifteen minutes are up?
Sarah Palin strikes me as someone who harbors serious resentment towards anyone from suburbs or urban areas. A few apologies after the fact are not going to patch things over for those of us in the suburbs who don't like condescension from rural elitists.
Her calling more of the shots? Why do I have the feeling that she needs everything to be about her? This thing was about McCain mostly, NOT her.
CNN's obsessive reporting on ANYTHING this woman does or says is sad. There is so much more going on in the world that you could (and should) be reporting.
Show some journalist acumen, please.
"The CEO of a state"? Oy.
I am sick and tired of Palin and her constant complaining about the Trig rumor. She is such a broken record. I don't believe for a second that the Anchorage Daily News called about the story. If it happened, it was probably some nutcase posing as the ADN. She says "You have to let it go"? Then she won't drop it. The story got NO play anywhere but in the fringes. Not one major organization has printed anything giving it credence.
As for the "Russia from Alaska" thing, it wasn't mocked because the media thought it was untrue. It was mocked because she was arguing the silly notiion that it somehow gave her foreign policy experience. Nuance is lost on her.
There were endless false rumors about Obama and his family that played out on blogs. I never once heard Palin complain about that.
I don't understand. I thought Gov. Palin wanted media coverage regarding her children to stop. Yet, day after day, she keeps flapping her gums and bringing them up. She can't have it both ways.
I say they give her a daytime TV slot. She's sooo entertaining! I mean seriously folks, she's a riot no? I thought she'd go bury her head in the sand, but seems she can't get enough attention. Keep the laughs coming Sarah!
I think the only "continued problem" with journalism is that it continues to give this nut job the time of day. Her clock ran out ages ago, and yet we continue to see her and hear her mindless quips every few days. Enough already.
Dummy why don't you stay out of the media, they are only making you look more and more of the idiot that you are. Shut your dammmmm mouth up. the vp has been spoken for. GET OVER IT.
People who read blogs believe what's posted?
I think Sarah Palin is the only breath of fresh, honest, and moral air that there is on the political front today and instead of hammering her all the time, I feel she should be recognized for what a great and inteligent person she is. It is my hope that she will consider letting her name be placed in the hat for the presidency in 2012. By then, WE WILL REALLY BE NEEDING A BREATH OF FRESH AIR. God bless you Sarah, keep up the fight. There are a lot of us with you.
Switch and I might listen. Otherwise, you bore me. Go away and take the rest of the trailer trash with you.
So Governor Palin is crying about the media. They're picking on her....boo hoo. Would this strategy work with Iran, N. Korea, or Russia? Point is, enough of the thin skin. Either you're in this political game to win, or you should beg someone to change YOUR diaper and go back to your play crib.
The way the media treated Sarah Palin during the campaign was demeaning and disgraceful. Even now, whenever Gov. Palin responds to some ridiculous comment or charge made about her, you report that she is slamming, blasting, attacking, etc., (whatever stupid, abusive and inacurate term your pseudo-reporter cares to use to further demean her), the disgraceful treatment doesn't stop. Try very, very hard to learn to be professional in your reporting. Try very, very hard to learn that even public figures have feelings and are deserving of courtesy and respect. Try very, very hard to grow up. The world will be a better place for those efforts.
Take the dam mouth swab and blood tests for all three of you, Trig, you, Ms. Palin, and Bristol. Let us see for sure who the mom is, or are you scared you will be found to be caught in yet another brainless lie, one you can't wink your way out of?
Truly,
I wish S. Palin would shut her mouth. We have so many problems in our world right now – I do not care if she's a little (or a lot) pee ood with the media.
Stop trying to bring the focus back to you, get down to what we pay you to do (God help us all) by doing the best by your State of Alaska.
The problem with Ms. Palin is not that she didn't get to call the shots, it was that she didn't have the intelligence once the shots were called upon her. I listened to her interviews AFTER the election on November 4, and she was every bit as bad as she was BEFORE election day. She has run on sentences, and does not make sense. As far as seeing Russia from Alaska, of course you can, the far western coast of Alaska is just miles across the dateline from the far eastern coast of Russia; however, it is not visible from where Sarah Palin lives. And no, New Yorkers, i.e. city dwellers, and Alaskans are not even on the same wavelength, never mind bearing a likeness to one another; we could be from two different planets, becaUse it is not likely we would have elected anyone like Sarah Palin as our CEO, though we have been known to elect a few duds.
Atta girl! Keep fightin' to stay relevent. On behalf of Dems everywhere, I'd just like to say 'Thank you.' I'd like to see you in every major race for the rest of my life. You're one of the best things (beside the Presidency and control of Congress) we have going for us!
It must be the communists from Canada
Palin's responses to the issue about "bloggers who lie" really convinces me that she is truely out of touch with the political landscape of America. Really Sarah? You are surprised by this?
A newsflash for ya; this is life in 2008/9. The internet is FULL of people who lie, and people who choose to spend their time blogging about politics are, by and large, the worst offenders. Here's another newsflash Sarah; it's not going to stop anytime soon.
DING! Hey Sarah – hear that bell? That's the timer – your 15 minutes of fame are up!
This woman is a nitwit – the percentage of people who tear up during the playing of the national anthem at sporting events is very very low, and that is not an indication of a lack of patriotism, love of God or country, or any other spin that these out-of-power nation-wreckers care to jam down the throats of the vast minority of Americans who still buy this nonsense. These same people who, most probably, still tear up when they hear the national anthem
"decisions for ya"? She can't even say "you"? For pete's sake, Palin, quit trying to stay in the news. "You can see Russia from Alaska" was taken out of context? I believe you said, in response to what was your foreign policy experience, "Well, I can see Russia from Alaska". How was that taken out of context? But my biggest question is, WHY is the media giving you such air time? Go to Israel and be a reporter like Joey the Plumber.
Go. Away. Your 15 minutes are up.
So I guess its okay for her to lie, but no one else? Please just make her go away. Oh and if she really wants the issue of Trig's birth mother to go away, just release the medical record. That would end it right there
What part of "We're sick to death of you, Sarah" does this woman not understand?
Is it me, or do you all pathetic bloggers need to get a life?
Governor Sarah Palin, Please Please Please stop whining and grow up. A whole governor behaving like a kid. This is called free speech, no matter how unfortunate some of the comments made are. Humble yourself and go back to being a good, informed, and an effective governor. Thank you.
Will this woman please keep her mouth shut!!!! I am so sick of seeing her on the news and listening to her stupidity. Goodbye already!
"Alikeness?" Does she know she's making up words?
Wll then...I slam a boring, egotistical and pathetic ex-vice president nominee for her LIES!
Okay, has everyone had it with her blaming the media? This woman ran for the second highest office in the land. The 'media' was doing their job. People want to know all they can about who is one heartbeat away from the Presidency.
YOU Sarah made all the moronic remarks. YOU Sarah were fine saying blatant lies about President Obama. YOU Sarah trotted out your family. Why don't you take credit for any mistakes YOU Sarah made yourself!!!!
We blog about you because you are a trainwreck happening that we love to watch. It is the American way in the lower states as you call us. Even the not so American states as you call some of us.
Hi, Sarah....I am a bored blogger and like Garfield would say 'I resemble that remark'.
How are Sarah's grandson's, Twig, Trig, Gig or wateva!
Why are you still reporting on a sore loser. Tell her to get her children act together and take care of her home. Also she needs to focus on her job and let the past go. She steped in sh!t and that is where it was left. Sarah go away.
I don't hear her whining about conservative bloggers or hate-talk radioheads. What an idiot.
No one cares I never even heard that rumor until you said it. You know how many magazines and blogs lie about celebrities you need to learn to brush it off and stop giving it any legs. Just say no that's not true and that's final. Also stop acting like its the mainstream media who has not even talked about this maybe a little of your own medicine rem obama is a terrorist, socialist lie will do you some good.
Jesus just go away already.
leave the lady alone-get a life
If you would stop making comments, people would stop writing articles.
Enough already!
Just stop writing about her and let her sink into well-deserved anonymity.
The American public has a few other things to worry about than her inane remarks.
WHY cant she just crawl back under her alaskan rock!?
SA, she would go away if people like you weren't so interested in her. You saw her name and her picture and you opened the article. The reality is she draws interest, from both sides of the aisle.
She make a good point here about her son though. It is disgusting the questions she is asked about him and by those that consider themselves true journalists. As for her being more vocal in the campaign, I think she was vocal enough.
This from someone who accused Obama of "palling around with terrorists"?
This from someone who thinks that Joe the Plumber has insights into how small business works?
Honestly, if she is the face of the Republican party..You can count me out. This is absolutely sickening, I say. Sickening!
msm HAS to continue to follow palin because she will be the first female US president come 2012. YOU peeps need to get used to that idea. stop denying the truth of the matter. you dont have to like it but you better acknowledge it.
So Sarah '09 would look back through time and tell Sarah '08 to tell "the Boys" that she would callin' some of the shots. That's the advice she would give herself if given the aid of a time machine. Not "Buy an Atlas." Not "Figure out who the Prime Minister of Canada is so I don't get Punked by a Canadian Morning Zoo Crew hours before the election." Not "Read the constitution so I don't continually mistate the role of the Vice President when asked what I would do if Elected, making me Kieth Olbermann's favorite punching bag and the laughing stock of the world." Not "Tell McCain to find an economic advisor for the campaign with more credibility than "Joe the Plumber."
The idiocy of this woman knows no bounds. Please Please Please stay in the limelight from now until the 2012 elections to ensure Democratic victories from now until then, and perhaps in perpetuity if the Republicans never figure out that White Power and God Guns and Gays are not the message that is going to lead them out of the desert that they have allowed Karl Rove and W. to lead them into. Go Sarah Go, Stupid Sells!!!!
Sarah WHO!!!!! I thought that cockroaches were the only thing that would survive... Guess maybe one more thing will SARAH
Oh, come ON. I am still waiting to here her speak of some issues with substance. Yes, WE KNOW she is unhappy with the media rumors. Why doesn't she ask Barack Obama how he feels about the rumor that he is a Muslim and was not really born in America? Do you hear him still complaining about that?
She just needs to LET IT GO. The more she talks about it, the more it is going to get more press, and the more the rumors will keep flying.
She is right about telling the McCain camp that she should have called some of the shots. If she had realized that before the ticket had lost and stopped trashing Obama about pallin' around with terrorists, the outcome may have been different.
I suggest first she refrain from spreading rumors about her opponent before she complains about others spreading rumours about her. She needs to lead by example.
Sarah, Sarah, Sarah. You are wasting your time. I can see Russia on a Google satellite map, but does that make me an authority? No. Actually, the continued problems are with the Republican Party and your friends at the American Enterprise Institute like Bill Kristol who fell for your blather and your halibut cheeks, and now all of you are completely discredited. A word to the wise. While I find you very amusing, sort of like a black comedy sketch, you’re going to wear out your welcome with the people who support you if you keep giving interviews. By the time of the next election you will be as forgotten as any other flash-in-the-pan. People who would support a candidate with your credentials will have gone on to the next shallow sensation by summer. BTW, running a state is not like being the CEO of a company. States are usually not for profit entities to serve the people. Look at your friend George W who claimed to be a CEO and see where he brought us. Also CEOs usually have some education and experience and can speak clearly enough to be understood.
Signed Pathetic Blogger
You go Sarah! Rip apart...they deserve it. And can someone please shut Joy Behar up? Why is she so obsessed with Sarah Palin? Get a life, Joy!
For someone who kept complaining about people attacking her, she sure isn't holding back now on slamming folks. She is still governor, right? In these economic times, shouldn't she be spending more time, I dunno, governing instead of doing all these interviews?
afterwords she turned to her aid and asked "wait, what's a blog again?"
here's an idea for the media, STOP REPORTING ABOUT PALIN, PERIOD.
She's granting all these interviews with the media now, but in every one she is complaining about the media.
If you stop covering her (she's not really newsworthy anymore anyway), she can't complain about your coverage.
Isn't she the pot calling the kettle black! They're pathetic liars? Pretty indicative of the past and recent Republican Party, refusing to admit their own faults, but quick to point fingers at others' short comings.
Sarah Palin tried so desperately to paint Obama as radical and unpatriotic by linking and or questioning his ties with a person that was exhonerated of terrorists activities, but not in her eye sight as exhonerated. But she continued to hammer that to all of her supporters at rally after rally when running for the Republican VP slot. Did she every say that what she was doing is pathetic or untruthful? Of course not. Hypocrites.
Phylosophical attitude on the down side of the spotlight eh, Any reasonable person will wonder why Sarah is complaining, The one person who accused Barack of all kinds of falsehood during the last campain through her limited education and knowlegde and one wonders how she got there as a governor. I wonder a lot too
When Obama's country of origin was questioned, he released his birth certificate. I still haven't seen whiny Palin's medical records detailing her pregnancy. She can't whine about being questioned about this and at the same time, refuse to offer any proof.
Ha ha ha...I wonder what McCain is thinking now when he keeps hearing these interviews...that's probably why he's in hiding. She needs to stop reading blogs.
Then work on fixing the 'continued problems in the world of journalism' and leave national politics alone!
Pretty please!
Why is this women still in the news....all she is trying to do is keep herself in the public eye...this is the typical nature of those beauty pageant types and alhtough some rises up from that she has shown that she is just perpuating it with her lack of knowlege and skillfull interaction with the media...for me it was the fact that when she was asked certain questions she gave the exact answer word for word for different interviews...come on they all do that but change a few or the words at least....and in the future Mrs Palin listen to the question and answer as it relates to the question not the fact that you do this and that....just answer the question....this is an example of the people who should not be in power...a person who can't even comprehend a simple question and give a specific simple answer...to me MRS PALIN you yourself acts like those anooying anonamous bloggers...Please but then again the right wing has a way of electing nuts....aka McCain....this is not from me but from the people who ran Bush campaign againts McCain and lookie here....it's the same people who ran his....the real McCain should have ran not the one masquerading as a right wing republican....which explains why the Barbie doll was added to his side....Too bad for Dan Quayle....Palin could have replaced him as the dumbest VP ever....then she would have forever been entrenched in our minds...she would have been up the with Bush jr as dumbest president and vice president of all time.
Maybe she and Joe the Plumber will join together to stop the media from reporting on anything.
Those pathetic liers that write trash should worry about where their spouses are when at work. Does the men know who is sleeping with their wives? and do women bloggers know where their husbands are?
I tell you I happened to be sleeping with the spouse of a couple of bloggers.
Why doesn't Palin simply retreat into her Igloo and leave the country alone.
She had her chance and made a fool of herself.
The Democrats win in Washington was a tribute to many people who lied and misled the American public about their agenda. They relied on American's inability or unwillingness to read. We deserve what we got. A President who doesn't meet the minimum qualifications for the job, and some of this country's biggest political losers to deal with terrorism.
She's still looking to see why her popularity weakened and all she has to do is watch the tapes. You opened your mouth. If you are so intelligent why didn't you know answers to such simple questions. The American people are so tired of hearing excuses.
Joe the Schmoe – it was a Democratic politician who brought that case to the Supreme Court...a little research would be appreciated before you make your posts.
Go Get'm Girl! The media is going to have to answer for itself from this point forward. Plain is not the only one firing back. There are millions of women, in particular, fed up with the good old boys. Well, these liberal media outlets are already in process of dying from Washington state to the East Coast. Tear up the newspapers people and go find the truth yourself.
I'm with her on the bloggers who won't drop the Trig thing.
Almost as pathetic as the ones who won't shut up about Obama's birth certificate.
If you try to present yourself as perfect and hold yourself up as some sort of perfect icon of virtue then people are going to ask questions and dig as deep as they can. She invited the scrutiny with her "real Americans" rhetoric. ie. real Americans think just like me and anyone who doesn't isn't a real American.
If Palin wouldn't be so critical of the types of people she doesn't like then I don't think that people would be so critical of her. I think that is one of Barack's secret of success. He came off as an intelligent person with an opinion, not a judgement. He never put anybody, or any group down. he talked about concilliation and cooperation. After 8 years of "with us or a'gin us" nonsense people wanted something smarter and she was just more of the same.
Are we sure she wasn't just George Bush in drag?
I've got some ideas abotu where she can stick that olive branch.
She says that she has to "let it go" yet she continues to grant interviews to re-hash old and new articles about her. Way to "let it go" Sarah.
To all Republicans who hope to gain back some ground in 2012... Repeat after me.... " Anyone but Sarah, she's worse than George!"
What about all the uninformed, uneducated commentators that lie and/or make up their own facts like, O'Reilly, Hannity, Savage, Coulter and Ingraham. None of those people have a clue about the truth, but have their own agenda, and never ask Palin a serious or probing question? When is she going to slam them, or is she including them in her comments? If so, she should single them out as well.
Well, just release your medical records Sarah as every other major party candidate did, and this will be put to bed.
Simple.
No need to duke it out with independent bloggers.
The Coulter-ization of Sarah. Welcome to tabloid hell.
She is absolutely right. The media is so one sided and bias it is not even funny. It is a serious problem because the news has its own agenda and most people never really search for the truth. People call accusations news now. Palin is absolutely right – it is a sad state of affairs when anonymous bloggers have credibility over the true facts.
Dear little Sarah, you spoiled Diva–the "Bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie " cannot believe your "Trig" story because it is too far-fetched to believe....the multi-hour plane rides dripping amnionic fluid with the subsequent drive to a tiny regional hospital with a high risk birth, the cryptic statement from your doctor who barely delivers babies, no birth certificate presented by you that could easily squelch the "rumors", the pregnancy announced at 7 mo. to the shock of everyone including your family. Your 5th pregnancy and no one could detect it. And the photos, Sarah, the photos tell all. The bloggers have done their homework.
Her figure is to nice to have had a baby at her age, unless she has had a tummy tuck and breast lift. Older moms abdomens have lost elasticity. She needs to release her medical records.
Yes, the problem with McCain's campaign is that we didn't hear ENOUGH from Annie Oaklie. Is she so isolated she doesn't realize she cost him the election? He catered to the right wingnut wing of the party by taking her and eliminated the possibility of getting any middle road moderates. the result was a landslide.
Note to Palin. Shut up and run your state
Please go away!!!!
I agree with the "Let it go!" and "Just go away!" comments. BUT! I think I'd aim them outward from Palin and at those who seem to be just as guilty – if not moreso – of the same things Palin is accused of.
How many of you would be content to sit back and let the anonymous idiots further false (and at times insulting, at times damaging) information about her and her professional life – let alone the low-lifes who attack her personal life.
Yeah – let it go. But it's mostly you folks whining SHE should let it go who should consider their own advice!
I get so sick of hearing from Palin and about Palin. She comes off as stupid and "blonde" and that's just a fact of life. Nothing she can do to change that. She should give up trying to entertain the spotlight and just be glad that she somehow, miraculously obtained the job that she currently has. Her whole demeanor is just ... "hi, I'm a dumb blonde". Just go away!!!
Palin is a boring and pathetic loser! She's like the last person at the party who refuses to leave. Stop running stories about her, it only encourages her to stay.
Stay there in Mooseville with your 17 kids and stay out of the daily news!
Just one more indicator of why we should be eternally grateful that she didn't make it into that "one heartbeast away from the presidency" position. The woman just does not accept that she is in no way prepared to be in a national leadership role - I'm not even convinced she should be governor of her own state, and something tells me she won't be for much longer. Ohhhhh Sarahhhhh - take deep cleansing breaths and repeat after me - it's overrrrrrrr.
And yet she had no problem insinuating that Obama was complete Marxist and a terrorist sympathizer. If you play the game expect to get scored on sometimes.
Although the Republicans will have Burris to kick around, they need to replace 4 Republican senators who are not running for re-election in 2010, and the Democrats will have Palin and Joe the Plumber/Reporter who attacks the media. I think the Democrats come out ahead overall.
Sarah Palin......the gift that keeps on giving....lol
Here's a clue, if you don't like hearing about her, don't click the link to any stories about her, skip over them.....but you people are way too stupid to realize that you are the ones keeping discussions about her alive. Its a vicious cycle isn't it?
In many ways, Palin is the perfect embodiment of America right now: arrogant, greedy, willfully ignorant, and a habitual liar. The only current difference between Palin and middle America is that she's not morbidly obese or hooked on meth.
McCain moved on. Why is she still dwelling on the past? I understand her trying to clear-up some misconceptions but she is making things worse for herself. She has a degree in journalism right? What a waste.
Only fools would pay this woman any attention.
"callin' some of the shots"–Sarah Palin
First she needs to learn how to speak English and then call some of the shots at the local bar. What an idiot.
"Alikeness"?!?
Is that anything like a "similarity"?
I think we just dodged Dan Quayle 2.0 here folks.
You'd be calling the shots?
You're a day late and a dollar short to try to have a backbone now. Negotiations take place during the interview. When asked to join the ticket, all your "non-negotiables" should have been on the table. If those conditions could not be met, then Palin you should have declined their offer.
Secondly, your husband's silence is baffling. Granted he was not running for office, but as a man he should have been your most vocal defender.
Lastly, you should have followed McCains lead on keeping his daughter Bridgett off the campaign trail and in school. You see what the media/Rove did to her. Did you think your kids would be immune?
What comes around goes around. There are bloggers still writing about Obama being a Muslim and a fake birth certificate. He isn't whining.
Palin, please exit gracefully as McCain and support your grandchild. If you can't handle ridicule from bloggers, how would you handle the spew from dictators? You are too sensitive to be VP.
She's right, most you idiots believe blogs more then actual news. You guys that hate her were going to hate whoever McCain picked, Obama's team had responses ready to attack everyone they thought McCain would pick, when they found out it was Sarah they had to scramble and figure out how to attack her and ya'll just jumped on the wagon without knowing anything about, Hell, you still don't know anything except what you've read on blogs! Pathetic
Unfortunately it is palin who is sad and pathetic and a LIAR! The moron wouldn't know the truth it it was staring her in the face. John McCain did a great disservice to this country by "using" the idiotic palin, the completely unqualified for anything except perhaps holding "klan" rallies palin! He thought women were so stupid as to fall for her nasty rhetoric, fortunately the majority was smarter than he gave us credit for. Maybe if the media would stop covering this imbecile with nothing of importance to say, she would have to crawl away, her rock awaits!
Why do media outlets like CNN continue to give this woman airtime and attention? The country is so over Sarah Palin, and her outrageous statements these days are just pathetic attempts by her to (1) stay in the limelight, and (2) blame others for her poor performance during the campaign. Let it go.
ladies and gentlemen, the future of the republican party.
Only fools would pay this woman any attention. Not worth a comment.
First...why won't she just go away. Second...I do (surprisingly) agree with her about the media. Regular news outlet have become tabloids and the world (or just America) is obsessed with utter BS that doesn't impact their lives what-so-ever. Maybe we're so obsessed with celeb's lives because we want to escape momentarliy from our own pathetic ones. It's sad when 30 year old Mom's are reading "Teen Beat" and "OK" and talking about how "hot" Zack Efron is. It's out of control. Will it ever end? And more importantly...Will Sarah Palin ever go away?
Shine on beacon of willful ignorance ! Silence might be better than playing the blame game at this point.( Does she think bloggers that sign their names are okay?).Dan Quayle looks like Einstein in comparison.
blah! blah! blah! blah! what is she talking about and who really cares, I have no respect for a woman who neglects her infant child to gain popularity, take care of your children and maybe things will change for you.
Maybe 'Joe the reporter' could straighten it out for her. He knows as much about reporting as she does about being vice-president.
"an alikeness"???!!! sorry sarah, but we can just let you talk and you do it to yourself...
Doesn't this woman realize that some people just do not like or respect her?
Hey Sarah,
Get a life. No one really cares what you think.
If you want to appear intelligent SHUT UP!!!
Get herself back underneath that rock called Alaska. This women has no business in national politics. But hey, the MEDIA keeps her in the spotlight. I don't see her running around the talk show circuit trying to foster up some attention.
Does anyone who reads this garbage ever wopnder WHY the media is putting it out there for you to read? Is it in any way shape or form important? Not one ioota.....aye...
PLEASE PLEASE STOP COVERING THIS PATHETIC LADY AND HER BIZARRE MANNER OF SPEECH. SHE ISN'T NEWS ANYMORE.
she is the best example of dumb-squared !! Just shut up, Sarah.
You still would be waiting for her medical records today.
How would Sarah know if she can see Russia from Alaska, has she even visited the tiny little island where you can see the bigger island accross the water that is Russia? With regard to her son and other children, stop putting blame on the media for her own display of her children on one of the biggest stage, she did that not the media. I agree, enough of Sarah, Joe the plumber who is not a plumber, not a tax-payer and not a news person worthy of reporting on the war in Gaza/Isarel. They both need to go away and if CNN does not stop reporting on these 2 they will lose me as a dedicated supporter of their show.
Doink Palin.
If this is fair ,where were all the similar comments and probing of Caroline Kennedy
Palin seems to be addicted to publicity. She just can't seem to fade away like the world wishes she would. She has to give her worthless opinion on everything. We don't care what some semi-literate, failed vice-presidential candidate thinks.
And by the way, the reason why you and Kennedy were treated differently by the press was because you were seeking to be the vice-president, and in line for the presidency, and she was looking at being appointed as one of two senators from a single state.
So was there an answer in her ramblings? Regardless the page has turned, the fifteen minutes are up. Are the people of Alaska shaking in their boots each time she opens her mouth and they realize that they elected her to office ... I hope so.
CJ- if you dont care at all, why do you bother to sign in and leave your two cents?
STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Go kill a moose or whatever the hell you do up in Alaska. America is sick and tired of you!
Enough already!!!!!! You are a MORON!!!!!!!!!!!
CNN STOP!!!!! Let it go . . .
WE ARE SICK OF SARAH PALIN!!!!!!!!!!
You know, all this "it wasn't my fault " crap isn't going to get her any votes. She's starting to sound like a whiny teenager. First complaining about the Tina Fey thing (which actually made her more likeable, imo) and not she's complaining about the media?
Sarah, it comes with the territory. I'm sorry if the GOP didn't explain that the media would get into every nook and cranny and find all the little problems in your life. But Alaska's not that far away from the rest of the world, and I'm pretty sure you all get tabloids up there, and should know what happens in the rest of the US.
Palin/Wurzelbacher in 2012! They make W look like a Rhodes Scholar!
Fredi – Christians give Christians a bad name.
I totally agree with Fredi. I wish she would go away.
'pathetic bloggers who lie'?
...and you said every chance you got that Obama pal'd around with terrorists, you disgraceful moron!!!
Hey ja, the mental institutions are waiting for you and the caribou bimbo and anyone else who really thinks she's a breath of fresh air. What are you smoking?
The blogger she's talking about is anything but anonymous – his name is Andrew Sullivan, he writes for The Atlantic, and he's been asking for definite proof of the baby's parentage for months now. So far, no concrete proof provided. (Whether he's bored or pathetic is another question).
Gov. Palin, it is time for you to exercise some personal responsibility for your own faults on the campaign, so stop pointing the finger at others when you need to accept some of the blame yourself. It isn't our fault that you can't name a newspaper that you read, not our fault that you cited as Alaskan proximity to Russia as a case for having foreign relations experience, and it is not our fault that you can't form cohesive sentences on a regular basis.
Go back to the obscurity from whence you came! Tina Fey has moved on, why can't you??
The real problem is that the media gives out misinformation and the silly bloggers, not really caring, as long as they have fodder for their loose cannons, spill it all over the web. The media should be held accountable for their lies and false statements.
is this woman ever going to shut up? i guess she's too dumb to understand that the more she runs her mouth, the more she makes herself look like even more of an idiot than she did during the election.
Please – the media must stop interviewing this woman- let her go – she is the laughing stock of America. She has nothing to say – her views are those of an insane person. She has destroyed my beloved Republican Party and was the main reason the Republicans lost the White House. I ask again, please stop interviewing this woman – she has nothing of interest to the Nation. Hopefully, one day she will figure who/whom gave birth to Trig – who cares........
They can't help it Sara,they get their info from the Lying Media.The Mainstream meida that refuses to tell the truth,only if it suits their means. There is nothing worse than the MEDIA Lying and trying to make People believe they are not Biased. Katie Curic should be ashamed,Charlie Gibson should be ashamed. They were and are still AFRAID of you because you told them the Blunt truth and they are not use to a politician telling the truth up front.After they let Biden tell at least 10 lies in the debate with you,and did not try to correct him,but let him keep lying.
My God.. scary that this thing , was part of the republican ticket. America is in bad need of an overhaul .
This woman is unbelievable. Since LOSING the election for McCain, she has done nothing but try to keep her name in the headlines. What next, a reality show? Oops, I shouldn't have said that; she may be listening.
Before you can lead a country, you have to like other people from different states. It's the United States of America, not the Country of Alaska.
Grow a brain Sarah, you're not ready for prime time.
She wasn't mocked for saying you could see Russia from Alaska. She was mocked because she implied that gave her some sort of foreign policy experience. I can see the White House from my house but I don't think that implies anything about my readiness to lead.
She should shut up already...she is ruining whatever political future she might have had with all this whining and complaiing
And who exactly is governing Alaska, while its governor blabs and gets as much media attention as she can?
Perhaps Todd?
She continues to struggle. People did not mock her Russia / Alaska comment because it was false. It was mocked because seeing another country is not an example of foreign policy experience. Does she still not understand?
Palin is the only "pathetic" one. She brought down a good man who should be inaugurated on Jan. 20. I hope she crawls into the hole she came out of and stays there.
Sarah go away! You need to learn the meaing of PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY
Apparently she thinks she is more than she really is. Wake up call! Hey Sarah, look in the mirror and say, "There's no place like home.....". Maybe a moose will fall on you. No wait, I wouldn't want to traumatize the moose.
Spiro Agnew reincarnated.
Maybe she should have gotten Bristol a computer to blog on when she gets bored.
Lord knows that her time can be better served blogging than making babies at 16.
The reason that Ms. Palin won't go away" like we would all like, is the media. If they left her alone, we would all be much better for it. 2012?? I think NOT!
I have some cheese to send you to go with that whine.......
Obama is closing Gitmo and transferring the prisoners to Alaska. No more waterboarding, prisoners will now be made to sit in a room with Palin while she continues to whine.
Why is this news? Please keep this woman off the front pages and use your considerable resources on news events and happenings that matter. Whether or not I know what Sarah Palin said something is not going to help me understand the world I live in. Items like this only shine a light on the kind of "serious" media we now have today, a collection of wanna-be gossip journalists who seem ready to work for PEOPLE magazine.
This woman will goaway when the MSM stops covering her.
To: Ja – Thank you for the joke of the day.
Well, Texas loves her and W, but that fact and two nickles will get us nowhere.
I'm sure Lindsay Lohan would also agree that the media is unfair.
It's irrelevant and nobody really gives a crap who Trig's mom is. Maybe you should have thought about false allegations when you were spouting off on terrorist connections during the campaign.
Oh Sarah why don't you just shut up and keep doing what you do be the govenor of Alaska, shoot your moose and eat it .... then admit that your state had the greatest rape persentage in the us and take care of those women and give them the funds to help them get well .... take your hollier than thou attutide and do something with it that helps others............
YAWN!!! As usual with this woman, it is always someone else's fault. The reason people continue to question the parentage of her last child is because:
1. The matter of her daughter's hasty and conveniently timed exodus from school
2. The timing of the announcement of her recent pregnancy
3. The fact that Palin flew on the very night she gave birth (when most doctor's suspend flying after the 7th month)
4. Palin's refusal to release her medical records like the other 3 candidates did
I don't know, nor do I care who the kid's real mom is. I'd just like this woman to go away! If you hate the media and the "anonymous public" then don't put yourself in the position of interfacing with either.
To be perfectly honest, I don't give a flying fig who Trig's mother is. I do find this woman with her immaturity and horrific command of the English language to be extremely irritating.
There go the pathetic bloggers again!
yea, that's it... it couldn't possibly have anything to do with YOU! YOU could never do any thing wrong, it must be everyone else's fault, because as we all know YOU are perfect, yea that's it it's everyone else's fault. GEEZ when does this woman stop blaming everyone and everything else for her own shortcomings. GO AWAY!
If she is letting it go, why does she not just go away and keep her mouth close. People need to have knowledge to answer questions and she does not have it.
Sarah – enough – you had your 15 min of fame and there are a lot of important problems to solve - they do not concern you -
So ... rent some DVDs ... watch Russia from your porch ... go shoot a moose .... but go away already... we are tired of you, Trig, your husband, your kids ... as well as Alaska - go home and leave us alone!
I'm sorry that Mrs. Palin feel's that she's being attacked by the media. It has to be hard for any human being to have to deal with such hard judgement on every aspect of her life. That being said, I feel Palin needs to grow a back bone and deal with it. Palin attacks the media and her running mate like a spoiled runner up beauty queen. She puts out the air that she's the victim on every subject, totally innocent of every charge laid against her. Yet Mrs. Palin seems to have forgotten her saying Republicans were the only real Americans, and her wanting to be in the media spot light during the elections. It can't be helped that when she is asked questions, she sounds like a uneducated backwoods hick. The media isn't slanting her image or making her be portrayed that way, it's the way she is. So my advice to Palin, stop being a baby. This woman is the leader of a state and had wanted to be a leader in the nation. If she turns is to a cry baby because she's picked on, what other seniros would she cave to?
"Alikeness? Is that really a word?"
Yes, it is.
Maybe to be President, you have to use full words and put the "G" in "ing".
That is, if ya wanna be callin' the shots.
What a maroon, as Bugs Bunny used to say...
She lies. Go away Palin. Go away.
To all you naysayers, just remember what the Clintons did when one reporter stated that their oh so precious daughter (who is 28 years old) was 'pimping' for her mothers candidacy! Oh it was so reprehensible, yet all you pathetic losesrs who never do anything wAN to malign someone who was viciously attacked by the so called journalists in the media.
So when she just takes questions and interviews AND RESPONDS DEFENSIVELY (they seek her out, not the other way around), and talks about what happens she is at fault?
She runs a state something the great BarAck has never done and now he is going to show us the way to recover? GET REAL!!!
To all you blog head idiots, enough already of your stupidity, none of you can hold a candle to what she has done, and she didn't do it to enrich herself like the Dems always seem to do.
So I say to you, just go away you bloghead twits.
This is not a lie Sarah. You are a real fruitcake !
This reminds me of Tweety Bird's famous quote, "I did, I did, I did see a Putty Tat" The difference is that when Tweety was asked the question, the question was "did you see a cat". It was not whether she was an expert on the affairs of felines or cat litter.
No matter how she spins her lack of competence she remains pathetically unqualified for the office of VP or president. Even more pathetic is the number of people who voted for her.
"You can see Russia from Alaska. Something like that — a factual statement that was taken out of context and mocked..."
Okay, let's include the context: "How does being governor of Alaska provide you with foreign policy credentials?" "You can see Russia from Alaska."
Yikes, Sarah, I can see your point! When taken IN context, it's total not mock-worthy!
Please, stop printing this WOMAN - we don't care about these hillybillies or their baby daddies!
She is just like Bush - trying to recreate history.
Bush + Palin = LIARS.
Governor Palin is great. That is one reason she scares the Dems and the Lib Fem bloggers so much. Unlike Caroline, the Governor can articulate a sentence and a paragraph without "you knows" and "ums". I think that little old Universisty of Idaho education has certainly paid off for Governor Sarah (interupted, of course, by the need to pay her own tuition and had no free rides), unlike the high flying Harvard/ Columbia one that did not even teach its graduates how to speak. Governor Sarah Palin is a star and will continue to come on strong in the Political world. Love the Gov!!!!
You have nothing to blame but yourself, lady. You put yourself out there, you opened your mouth without knowing anything, and you made mountains out of anthills. And you wonder why people don't support you, or even tolerate you? Grow up and take a good look at your life.
Isn't it time for Ms. Palin to go away now? Her 15 minutes is long over. Every time she opens her mouth I am even MORE convinced that America made the right decision with Mr. Obama. I certainly hope the Republicans work hard to find better than her for the next ticket they attempt to get elected. For someone who loved the public limelight, she sure does whine about it alot. If it wasn't for Tina Fey I truly don't think Ms. Palin would have received near the attention she gets now. And Tina Fey was exploiting Sarah???? I don't think so. Get over yourself and move on.
Sarah Palin, your time is up. So please go away. I can't stand her. She is the worst vp candidate that the GOP selected. Now go away woman and stay in Alaska!!!!!!!!!
And where did Governor Palin get her information that President-elect Obama was "pallin' around with terrorists" except from "bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie"? What goes around comes around, Sarah.
Get used to it Palin... If you want a real career in politics get used to people digging into every aspect of your life. You did the same exact thing to Obama. You lied around every turn, and tried to have them dig into his medical and birth records.
There is an old saying... Something about getting out of the kitchen.
The question should have been who's the real father
Who cares about this???? She is not worth reporting on and she is only hurting herself both politically and personally. Stop covering her. There are more important issues to be paying attention to.
I would be upset too if someone alleged that my child was someone else's..
I sometimes think that these bloggers are actually some of the political so called handlers. They write like they are trying to be dumb.
I don't think that anyone expected Palin to be so popular, so they went after her to discredit her anyway that they could.
If she were to run again, I do hope she selects her own handlers.
I saw nothing wrong with her clothes. After all these same people that are bashing her were the ones that did the shopping. Not a word is ever said about Pelosi's clothes or have you not noticed her taylor made (not off the rack) clothes.
Not a mention of the foolish spending in Washington.
Some in the media has forgotten how to do their job. Their job has now become "YELLOW JOURNALISM'
What does it matter really? Her son or not her son, is it really that big of a deal?
Pff, everyone needs to try looking at something important rather than digging up every little scrap of information and trying to turn it into controverse.
I agree with Palin, it's pathetic!
Gov. Palin, have not you ever heard that SUCCESS IS THE BEST REVENGE? If you want the American people to believe that you are competent and capable, then let your record speak for you.
Media folks, KIDS ARE OFF LIMITS!
Sarah Palin is a Governor of Alaska, right? I realize that Alaska has only three industries, two of them (fishing and tourism) are shut down for the winter and oil companies usually take care of themselves.
But there must something else she can do?!
Please people of Alaska, find something to keep Sarah busy!
Pathetic bloggers who lie?
What about her accusations on the campaign trail that Obama palled around with terrorists?
This ditz is incredible!!!!
Now you know how Barack felt the five millionth time someone said or asked him about him being muslim .
What on earth is this uneducated woman on about now? She has a VERY dim knowledge of correct written English and her understanding of the spoken language is SERIOUSLY flawed. From the endless stream of her remarks, take the Russian/Alaskan proximity quote. What the fact that one can physically see Russia from Alaska as proof of foreign policy experience is beyond me. She now claims it was a joke and that the remark was taken out of context. It did NOT come across as that when she said it IN context. It came across as what she saw as a seriously positive factor in her foreign policy experience and/or program. She also says she has "....got a lot of great life experience..." Such a description is virtually meaningless – it's not even literate English – and on that basis, countless millions of Americans could run for the Presidency! Send her back to school.
Exactly. The so-called anonymous, pathetic bloggers are just fine with her as long as she agrees with them, or they agree with her, or they are spreading the malicious, hate-filled lies that she loves so well.
And again, SHE is the one dredging up all of the tales from the campaign trail that she supposedly never wants to hear again. Those poor children of hers!
She is pathologicallly immature, completely amoral, and would have been a clear and present danger to this country if she had somehow been elected VP.
If Sarah wants a shot at the presidency in 2012, bashing the media isn't exactly a wise career move. (We all wish she'd go away!)
TO ja-you are wacked.
Did Michael Palin have a sex change? This Palin is just as funny!
Come on media. Quit it already. I'm from Alaska, and I can't believe you guys put this on CNN. She was asked, and she just answered.
In Ms. Palin's world, it's everyone else's fault. Sound familiar?
(Thing is, though – we knew this is how she thought during the campaign. Now that it's over, can we be spared from her? Report on her if she offers her opinion on energy policy, not bloggers that "annoy" her. Please.)
Nice to see Gov. Palin (Dingbat-AK) is continuing her campaign for "Whiner in Chief". Whine about this, whine about that...it's her only shtick.
so sooooo self absorbed
LOL at the pot calling the kettle pathetic.
I don't quite understand why Palin continues to get news coverage. Very few people actually care about this nonsense.
What a moron. Someone please explain to her what the word "context" means? It's painful watching an ignoramus repeatedly use a word they don't understand.
oh, pul-LEAZE let this woman crawl back under whatever rock she oozed out from underneath. She ran for office and the American people said HELL NO. Over and done.
She is a Diva, she can't stand being out of the lime light and she will do anything and say anything to keep herself in the news, and she comes off as a whine bag..........she comes off blaming anybody and everybody but herself for the bad and negative media coverage that she has gotten........if the McCain campaign had given her more leverage to call her own shots she would have screwed things up even more than they already were.........she is ruining all chances of her running and getting elected in 2012.........she is losing even those people that were her faithful followers, she would do best to just keep her mouth shut and go about her running Alaska and just forget about what the bloggers are saying about her.......but she won't......
and to all you 'joe six packs' out there.............MAVERICK
Shut up lady!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't understand how this woman was elected a governor. She's is obviously not very intelligent and unfortunately McCain gave her time in the spotlight. Now since the spotlight's bulb has burned out she has to say stupid things like this to get her face back in the news.
Palin, I sure hope you don't win re-election when the time comes. Your career in politics, heck, even as a human being will hopefully be over soon.
Why won't Sarah Palin come clean with her pot smoking and new age religion ???
I have no idea that in Palin's Fascisitic utopia that she would love to "do something about" the media. Beware, all you Palin fans... she is not an American. Nor does she have slightest idea what it really means to be one.
If it's too hot in the kitchen.........
She went to 4 colleges in 5 years to learn how to read a teleprompter, her accomplishment, using her perky personality to fool the people in Alaska that she is a politican. She has a Downs baby, which millions of women have everyday, tries to push her believes on others while being a total hypocrite. Now she whines that the media let he show he stupidty and somehow some way it is their fault! Please, unless she blows up something or kills something from a helicopter we do not care!!!!
It would help if she acknowledged that both Republicans AND Democrats have had to deal with this. The irony, though, is that she faithfully voiced the fears of rightwing bloggers on the campaign trail. Live by the sword, die by the sword.
I get the feeling that Palin didn't understand what was true or false about Obama (because she'd never paid attention to the election before she was nominated), she only knew what was true or false about herself. So 1. she knows the bloggers are full of it by looking at how she was treated and 2. she's still totally unaware of how much she smeared Obama by voicing righwing bloggers' claims.
Hey there compulsive attention seeking second place beauty contestant Alaska Governor and failed VP candidate, your fifteen minutes of fame is up. Time to go.
It's best not to keep reminding voters how golly gosh darn dumb you are if you want to have a realistic shot at running for Prez in 2012. Oh please nominate her republicans, please.
What about the DNA to determine the real father?
The more she speaks(an attempt to rescue her rep), the more damage she does. What is Todd Palin doing not advising his wife to just shut the F up already.
Ja said: "I think Sarah Palin is the only breath of fresh, honest, and moral air that there is on the political front today"
You're a funny/scary one.
Palin needs to get back to being governor and stop getting so overly concerned about what joe-the-six-pack-plumber-blogger has to say on his or her website. I don't think she can be taken seriously.
Hey Sarah, news flash: national politics down here in the lower 48 is a contact sport! Quit whining. Everyone gets raked over the coals in a presidential election. And honey, you did some rakin' yourself, didn't ya? Toughen up or stay in Alaska.
Dear Sarah Palin:
You are really quite amazing. Not only do you have a full time job...you do don't you...and are a full time mother and a new grandmother...and bring home the bacon...or venison...you also have time to grant interviews and complain about bloggers and the press.
I am merely a grandmother, caretaker for my mother and working full time starting up a new business in these most difficult times. I barely have time to think.
I suggest you buckle down to your job and family. Your 15 minutes is up!
I just wish that she would go away. Does anyone really care what she says/thinks? I wish the "media" would leave her alone so that maybe she'll fade back into obscurity.
How many lies did Sarah tell on the Campaign Trail? How many anonymous fake bloggers did she quote as gospel? If Alaskans are smart, they'll vote her out of office and never give her another public job. I can guarantee the American people won't give her one.
That's right "ja", the only breath of fresh air you breathe comes
straight out of your (take a guess).
When Katie Couric asked Palin How she kept up with world news and any other new sources. She could have easily named the “blogosphere” as a source, since she is so captivated by the bloggers information. I had to laugh when she finally named a news source 4 months later after the interview! Now that statement was something to archive, right next to the original interview! Just think going back on a test 3 months later and asking the teacher to change your grade because you finally figured out the answer! All her teachers need to be looked up and fired immediately! I guess she “winked” her way through school! Sarah needs to stop blaming others for her own shortcomings. CNN Please stop reporting on her she shows her stupidity everytime she opens her mouth.
JA....are you for real? I kept waiting to hear the punchline in your comment.
I am sure that she is a smart lady, yet continuing to play the blame game doesn't help her!
CNN...enough already! WE DON'T CARE WHAT SHE SAYS! The world is going to hell and you waste our time with her???
See comments from Steve, Lola, and Morgan.
Who cares?
Sarah Palin is the biggest joke to hit the political stage EVER. The only thing she's good at is holding up a bra.
Her hypocracy is monumental. If she had any integrity, and meant what she said..then she wouldn't be on the news at all...what a dirt bag this lady is!
She is the best Republican the Democrats have running.
She is never wrong it is always somebody else. Like Bush and Cheney never let anyone say you are wrong sweetie. You should not be responsible for your actions it has to be them, they took advantage of your wonderful nature, and beautiful appearance.
She's an idiot.
Now let's move on to another topic that matters rather than wasting time on a fool.
So.... it's EVERYONE else's fault but her own that she has the reputation she's got? Okay, I will give her the fact that the media has pounced on her when she's made mistakes and goofs, but the fact of the matter is that she's made a LOT of mistakes and goofs! She gives the press SOOOOO much to work with!!
As for the baby thing.... while I personally think it's stupid of the bloggers and whomever to say something like that, I also must point out that it's not just Palin that has bad and coo-coo stuff said about her! What about all those rumors about Obama not being an American citizen, going to school at a madrasa, being a drug dealer, and who could forget that he "pals around with terrorists"!! The BIGGEST difference with Palin is that she RESPONDS to it, and won't ever just let it die down, whereas everyone else ignores it because they know it'll eventually kick to the back of the field. It's Palin herself who keeps bringing it up, and as long as you bring it up, you make it fair game for people!! She just needs to leave it alone! Of course, then what else would she have to talk about that people would actually want to listen to? I guess it keeps her relavant.
It's a wonder how this woman has any time to govern the state of Alaska when she spends so much of her time actively and purposely making sure she is the media center of attention by feeling sorry for herself.
This only proves this woman is more of a "nut case" than we originally thought. The media has to let her go away..... Any intelligent woman would not want this woman in the public eye anymore!!
Quick, call a waaaaaaaambulance!!!!
I agree, Ja. Being "moral" and religious are much more important qualities for being President than competency and leadership.
An "alikeness"? Is that a word?
I feel sorry for Alaska. Those people must be desperate to elect her Governor.
The media's bored and pathetic?! Take a look at yourself still trying to ride out your fam of stupidity!!
Give it a rest, Sarah! Your constant grasping at straws to stay in the media limelight is so pathetic. We don't care if Trigg and Trapp and Kudzu and Piston were adopted or cloned!!! But if you didn't want media comment on them, then you shouldn't have paraded them around the campaign stages waving your baby in the spotlight.
Your behavior has sealed your political fate: you have made yourself the joke. The media just reported on it.
FOR GOD'S SAKE, JUST GO AWAY. PLEASE!!!!
Sarah, Sarah, Sarah, your such a whiney little hypocryite. What about when you and your supporters were calling Obama a terrorist and the shouts of kill him at your rally's? Where was your outrage then?
Response to ja
You are confusing a breath of fresh air with the fetid stench of hubris. All this woman has is charisma. Weigh that against her narcissism, poor education (I know, you conservatives are anti-intellectual), track record of bad ethical and moral judgement, her hypocritical record on internal family matters versus what she wants to impose on everyone else.
In 2012, if she is your choice, then you must belong to one of those apocalyptic evangelical cults.
To: "Ja" – if you think Palin is a breath of fresh air.... you need to get out more! There is a great big world out there that is NOTHING like you believe it should be. I've been to Alaska and its a nice place to visit. BUT it is FAR FROM the "real world" and its real problems!
Besides, her pastor laid hands on her to keep away WITCHES!!!!
So ask yourself this.... if YOU were accused of being a WITCH... would you want your Judge and Jury to consist of Priests or Scientists?
Sounds to me like Ms. Palin spends too much time worrying about what other people think. Has she ever thought about all the lies that she told while on the campaign trail? Maybe the supposed lies that are being told about her and her son are the direct result of the bad Karma that was brought on by her own mean-spirited behavior.
yea i really hope she gets to run in 2012 too, she will once again secure the presidency for the left.
I am glad to hear her fight back. I could not believe how quick and brutal the attack on her was. We ask the candidates to run clean campaigns but then the public acts like crazed animals. We attempt to destroy the opposition with made up lies. The attacks on SP left me forever disgusted with the democratic machine.
Hey JA, is that short for Jack A... A breath of fresh air, honest. Please take a breath and sit back and look at this person credentials. She has the nerve to slam Caroline Kennedy, she is no more qualified to run than Caroline Kennedy. Honest, has anyone figured out how much money she ows the RNC for her and her husband and children's clothes? 2012 Palin/Plumer the two Ps in a pod is what they are. Intelligent, OMG "what papers do you read" couldn't even answer that simple question. Ok I'm done with her and so should CNN, she is not news.
To DebM: "And now a message for CNN. Will you PLEASE stop covering this narcissistic fruitcake?"
Very well said!!!!!!
And ja–thanks so much, I needed a laugh!
I may be bored, and anonymous but it is Palin who is pathetic. For someone who blasts the media, she sure can't seem to get enough of the spotlight and CNN is only happy to keep her in it since she shows up on average once a day on a headline.
I am sorry, is this article about Sarah Palin or Darva Conger?
*insert whine* I just want my life back. Leave me alone!
Stay in your igloo and shut up.
thanks, CNN. Finally some good articles about SP. Obviously people want to hear about her–there are more comments appearing re every article than all of the others together. I think if people would see more of the real SP and not the stuff the Democrats and hollywood put out during the election–they would even like her as much as us "non-elitist, non- costal, people do! Keep up the good work–after all, the election is over! Be fair people, your candidate won by a small margin- but he did win-, so lay off the nastiness!
pete – very well said
Deb "And will you PLEASE learn the English language? Alikeness? Is that really a word?"
Are you kidding? Yes, alikeness is a word. Why don't YOU learn the English language!!
This is the thing about cnn posts, people write their posts and pretend to be just so much smarter than everyone else...yet, Deb doesn't know the English language, Joe the Schmoe doesn't know who took the Obama citizenship case to court, and rin says nobody cares about Palin, yet posts are popping up like crazy on her story. No wonder why you are all liberals, you are all clueless and hypocrites.
Notice how she's not so good at following her own advice about "letting it go".
That's okay. The more she whines, the more sick of her we all get, and the less likely she'll ever re-emerge on the national scene.
This is about to get annoying. True the McCain camp didn't handle her well, but when she went out on her own, she didn't do herself any favors. Everyone has bad interviews and say dumb things. Obama had his, Clinton had hers. You learn and move on from them. Continually attacking the media is NOT going to help her in any future national elections.
She was not ready for the national stage at the time McCain dropped her on us. People claim Obama was unknown, well she was more unknown from a somewhat isolated stated.
That in itself is asking to be hammered by the media. Was the American public just supposed to take Senator McCain's word that she was qualified? No, somehow we needed to be educated. They talked about her record, well, her record was just as short as Obama's. At least Obama had touched foreign soil, new foreign leaders and had federal experience. Unfortunately a TOTAL Washington outsider was not what the country needed at this particular time.
Grow a thicker skin Sarah or get out of politics.
To ja
ROFLMAO @ great and intelligent person she is!
Intelligent ? LOL If that creature is intelligent God save us all.
I think Palin somehow believes that if she keeps blaming the media for her ideological and intellectual shortcomings that this will somehow fix her image in the public's eye? When all Tina Fey has to do is repeat what you said in an interview verbatim for her punchline then I think it is time to start looking elsewhere for work. The majority of Americans are not that stupid and gullible and that is another reason she is deluded if she is really considering running for POTUS.
I also agree with the other commenters when I say CNN please stop posting these non-stories. I know it gets you ratings because people are curious about how ridiculous it is that she was a vp nominee, but seriously..
Whine, whine, whine, I have never heard anyone whine as much as Sarah Palin. And trying to blame other people for her own inadequacies. My goodness, she sounds more like bush every day.
Someone shut this moron up.
Her 15 minutes are over.
She is not a credible political figure.
The more this woman talks the more she makes it clear she IS NOT presidential material.
There is an old saying "if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen".
She put herself and her family up for public scrutiny, unless she has spent her life living under a rock, she had to have known along with the limelight comes the low light..
Her complaining, about the negative comments that come with any "celebrity" status, as if she some how should be immune is absurd and proves she spends too much time concerned with what others think..
That is not the kind of woman I want in charge of anything.
I want the person in charge to make decisions based on their importance, not how she looks making them.
Will you please just let it go. This is why women get the bad rap of always nagging the hell out of people, and never knowing when to let something go. Go on with your life and enjoy your new grandchild and the rest of your family.
I hear she has webbed feet and sleeps hanging upside down from the rafters.
Why is this women still considered newsworthy? Also, using words like "ya" and leaving the g off of the end of your words does not make you folksie. It makes you appear uneducated and not ready to represent the US on any terms. News organizations should stop giving this woman any time at all. It was difficult for me to even decide to read this post let alone comment on it. These are wasted minutes of my life I will never get back. Let her go quietly into the night and out of the news.
JA, you got to be kidding. A lot of us with you. Not for a minute. Sarah Palin is not Presidential material. She wasn't Vice Presidential material. Please don't bring it up again. It really makes me ill to think that anyone in the world would want her as their leader. Let Alaska have her forever if they love her so much, but please don't suggest that the rest of the US does.
Dear Sarah,
You made the comment about seeing Russia in an attempt to fake your foreign policy credentials so don't cry about the media and bloggers. This is the good ole USA for Pete's sake, can't we point out the truth? Typical republican thinking if you say it then it's so. Grow up you 44 year old child and go back to minding your own Alaskan business. You had no biz trying to claim to be qualified for VP.
She and her supporters should all move to Alaska and secede from the union.
Keep it coming, Sarah. The more you speak the more laughs we have. I agree with you. McCain should have given you more press. It would have been so much more fodder fo Tina Fey and the late night shows. We can't get enough of you so please, keep it coming. some of us really are hooked on your idiocy.
She doesn't understand the difference between a blogger and a journalist.
She's a great leader, just as long as nobody lies about her.
She doesn't understand the role of the VP is not to "call shots," but to do what you're told.
She doesn't understand the first rule of holes: when you're in one, stop digging.
Did someone actually refer to Palin as Intelligent? Palin would not be intelligent in a town idiot convention.
Pathetic bloggers who lie ?
How about the pathetic speech you gave during the campaign about President Obama palling around with terrorists ?
Get lost.
She needs to get over herself. Nobody cares at this point and the more she rants about the "evil media" the worse she sounds. You lost. Deal with it and move on. The rest of us have. We face way more important problems right now.
Sara- You'd be better served if you just went heli-moose hunting and stopped worrying about what bloggers say about you. Your time is done. You are as unimportant today as you were 4 months ago.
In the words of a famous SNL skit... Bu-Bye
To
Steve January 13th, 2009 12:30 pm ET -
Two words for ya pal, Bill Ayers.
'Nuff said
Thank you Gov. Palin for speaking up to the media. We deserve the facts not gossip and that is all we have been given. And we are still be subjected to half truths only most people don't care as long as their day is not disrupted and gov't portrays a themselves as the innocent bystanders to the mess we face. Gov. Palin you are a fresh breathe of air and hopefully you will be the leader of the future. Thank you! Now go after the bloggers who are probably campaign volunteers.
You have no one but yourself to blame. Just go away!!!
CNN... Please DON'T STOP covering this stuff! If she was actually the VP it would be terribly depressing and painful to watch this pathetic ignoramous stumble around grasping at half formed thoughts and made up words (like i'ts been watching Bush these last 8 years) but since the country had the good sense to reject her bid for national office, it's just SUPER ENTERTAINING!
We'll all keep clicking, so CNN, keep mining that comedy gold from the gift that keeps on giving! And it's even better that SHE'S the one that keeps rehashing the same crap, but still can't form a lucid thought! Care to try again Governor?!? LOL!!! Great stuff!
We are not interested in hearing about Palin in the news or any entertainment programs. The fact that she was nominated to be a VP by the republican party destroy their chances for a win other than Bush!!
Sarah Palin = losing part of losing ticket = old GOP politics = boring = not newsworthy.
You reap what you sow Governor. Throughout your campaign you spread gossip, lies and rumors at every turn. Accept that gossip is hateful and stop doing it, then maybe it will stop as it relates to you.
Nobody really cares whose vagina the kid dropped out of...jsut begone for crying out loud!!!!
Intelligent?? Intelligent people don't need to bounce around from community college to community college just to get a journalism degree.
And maybe CNN would stop covering her, if she'd shut up. She just makes it worse for herself and her family everytime she starts whining again.
And speaking of lies. She says her daughter and son-in-law are not HS dropouts. So what would you call two teenagers that no longer attend hs, and left without finishing?
Are Alaskans just as dumb as her? I mean they elected this twit. I don't think she could organize a party in a liquor store.
Nice republican values; pregnant daughter now an unmarried 17 year old mother who is a HS drop out dating a guy who is also a HS drop out that just quite his job.
Sarah has made her family name a joke. If it werent for the fact she is good looking those goofy Republicans never would have swarmed her like they did as the second coming.
If Republicans were serious about this past election they would have recommended Olympia Snow, Senator from Maine; an articulate and knowledgeable lady.
SP reminds me of my teen daughter who loves to get into the DRAMA of high school stuff.... My daugher does not follow my advise and I doubt SP will either... but if you want it all to stop...(if you really do)... stop adding to the drama.... The majority of people are tired of hearing from you.... so if you stop all this drama life is unfair... look how they all pick on me.. while you make your snide remarks... from day one... you stop... they stop.
she asked for it. It doesn't seem to bother her when the media attention is focused on anyone not in her circle. I do wish CNN and all the others would quit interviewing her. Don't give her any more attention. What a whiner!
I hear SNL is looking for some good actors, They say there ratings are down since Sarah has been out of the limeligth.
Methinks the lady doth protest too much
Enough about Sarah Palin already!!! Nobody even cares about her anymore. It is her own fault she ended up where she is. That is what politics is all about. She chose to accept the nomination and she lost, so stop whining. Nobody made her look bad, except for herself. But, she sure made the rest of us look bad with her. I think she should just go back to Alaska, be quiet and realize her political career is over.
ja....seriously. I was waiting for the punch line....and then nothing. Of course, considering you called her "intelligent "while misspelling "intelligent" yourself, I wonder how high your bar is actually set.
Sarah, please. go. away.
you're an insult to all Republican women who don't buy the "kuche, kinder, kirche" mentality of the paleolithic leadership of the current GOP.
Understand that YOU are the reason McCain lost, both for his bad judgment in acquiescing to your selection, and your bad judgment in accepting a role for which you are utterly unqualified. Sorry, pull up your big girl panties and in your own words, "let it go." let US go!
Please keep reporters away from her and Joe the Plumber. We haven't heard very much from their candidate but too much from them.
Can't they go back home mentally?
Reporters, please stop enabling these two Americans.
Find a real story about fascinating people not Republican throw aways.
Don't blame anyone but yourself, Sarah. Your lashing out at the media is what is pathetic. You use the media as a way to get attention. Get over it. Move on. Get a life.
Ah, nothing like more Crappy Non-News from my favorite news network...
Next topic.
Wow, interesting to see all the liberal democrats shivering in there boots in regards to a comeback of Sara Palin. I hope she comes back i a huge way for the Republicans. Shes not going to go away, why should she?
WOW. this article itself, and that she's going out of her way to speak on these subjects points directly to her own... Problem, and feelings of inadequacy with with being seen in this light. She is a former beauty queen, correct? She has deep rooted psychological issues. Forget her failure. Let her get back to her " real america " where everybody is REAL DUMB. I wouldn't be surprised if she mistook $15000000 on warbrode as five eleventy thousand moneys for fancy time. Thank goodness the old warden is gone, his buddies arent taking over, and that you have a real vice president with more important things on his mind than "bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie".
Much Love From Above
Canadian Parasite
Tick... tick.... tick.... DING! That's it! Your 15 minutes are UP!
Outahere, Caribou Barbie-Doll.
sheesh... look up "narcissist" in the dictionary, there's a pic of Palin.
If Tina Palin had a bigger hand in the campaign, Barack would have received all the electoral votes, you betcha
"You have to let it go...what you have to do is let that go."
Interesting statement, considering how many times I've seen a story on CNN lately with her complaining about the media.
I also hope Palin ends up running for president in 2012. That will be an easy reelection for Barack Obama.
CNN,
This is so comical! Thanks for that laugh. You made my day!
Actually, I think the reason "You can see Russia from Alaska" thing got so much traction was because it was IN context – the context that she was claiming that gave her foreign policy experience. Taken out of context it's just a piece of trivia. But in context it's a ludicrous and mockable claim. And so she got mocked for it.
Its easy to run a state, when that state is owned by big oil.big oil and gasboys tell her what to do, while she fills her pockets full of cash.
who cares whom is the mother of her child, whoever. However she need to go back to the books; Africa is a continent, bored blofggers are not the 'media". She should also stop preaching about how to live a Christian life by starting to teach her daughters about sex out of marriage. People on the right pretending to preach values to the rest of us Americans and not living by their words. We are sinply sick of it
Sarah learn how to lose and go away...
Ah! The Nattering Nabobs of 'Net Negativism!
This is Ann Coulter's soul sister: they both can dish it out, but neither can take it. Why should we believe anything that comes out of either of their mouths?
Yikes!
Doesn't it strike anyone as mildly ironic that the people who rail against the media are the ones who look like the biggest buttocks in front of the media in the first place?
Re: Samuel Wurtzelbacher
hello.....hello.....hello.....Sarah?... does the elevator go to the top.....is anyone home....hello...hello....it's over....we don't care..........what planet are you on anyway?...............goodbye.
keep digging sarah. you are your own worst enemy.
Please try and run in 2012 Sarah!
Hope the GOP uses you again as their clueless candidate!
that way Obama can save his time and cash campaigning since you don't have a chance
Don't forget that the media is what catapulted you to prominence.... so if you attack them, they will eat you alive! Promise!
Governor.. Public Figure...I am sure there is a picture somewhere showing Mrs. Palin pregnant during the NINE months leading up to Trigs birth.. When you are always on the defense You are usually riding the fence.
CNN, you dirty enabler. Stop feeding her fire. No one actually cares about what child is hers or not, what perks her son in law lost because of his lack of qualificiations, what her husband is or isn't doing, what poultry is not getting their sentence commuted. No one cares.
Now, if she's using her job to get people fired because they cause family turbulence, let's hear about it. If she's purchasing construction jobs on behalf of her state that make zero sense, asking for excessive federal funding for state projects that shouldn't be approved, etc... let's hear about it. Because it's legitimate news.
But can we have her stop with the pointless and insubstantial whining? She can whine all she wants, just stop feeding her voracious need for attention.
She took a lot of flak, but she was not the most qualified person of either sex for the nomination, and she used her time in the spotlight to play attack dog, impugn the character of her opponents, and dis anyone from the lower 48 who came from a town of more than 5000 people.
If she had had a positive message during her (thankfully) brief candidacy for national office, I think things would have been different.
First Sarah, we're not anonymous. We have names, emails and live and breathe. And I'd say it's you that's bored. As Governor I wouldn't think ya'd have the time for this nonsence! Is Alaska payin ya for all the time your usin on intercurricular activites to vent yur poor me hostilities live to the World?
Your the pathetic one! The one that keeps your family, your children, at the mercy of the media via your insatiable selfish needs and insanity! Your advice to yourself should have been I am a mother that has a baby and family who needs me to put them first, I don't have the qualifications necessary for VP, I will decline McCain's offer. And the reason Sarah you weren't callin the shots on the Campaign was because YA didn't have the necessary experience, skills, intelligence, historical or political knowledge, finess, or one earthly clue about decorum! But hey Ya must love the criticism as Ya keep Comin back fer more which confirms the aforesaid adjectives!
Will you tear up Sarah when they play the National Anthem when Obama is sworn in as President of the United States? Or do you just tear up when the Anthem is played at Hockey Games or Baseball games?
trig is bristols son, fathered by palins husband
explains the birth defects and the shadyness of this whole debacle...been "sayin" in for months.
Palin opposes abortion, "even in the case of incestual rape"
Anyone who feels this strongly about being a victim of the media (mainstream or any other media) needs to do more to keep themselves out of the media spotlight.
At this point, does it really matter what anyone says? Truth or other wise? Gov Palin is still the Governor of Alaska. She should be more concerned with what her family and the citizens of Alaska believe.
T from NY: Stop posing as a liberal. Any real liberal knows that Sarah Palin brought this all on herself. She is believes that raw ambition is a good substitute for actual intelligence.
To the people who said- "Just go away"- why do you bother reading?
Sarah Palin will not go away- and like it or not- she will be the next President of the United States.
The next 4 years will put enough of a bad taste in the American people's collective palate that they will yearn for a Christian with Conservative God fearing values.
God Bless America and the Palins.
Doesn't she know it wasn't the "You can see Russia from Alaska" statement itself that was the problem. It was the fact that she thought this constituted foreign policy experience. The there was the bit about Putin flying over Alaska to get to Washington. Apparently they don't teach about great circle routes at the Flat Earth scholls she attended.
She's not going to go away until she gets trounced in an election somewhere. Be prepared.
I think what is most remarkable about this story is that she referred to a Newspaper. Something she couldnt do during the Couric Interview.
Palin? Who is Sarah Palin again? I think her 15 seconds of fame ended a few months ago. Next!
CNN should run a computer script to simply erase all items pertaining to Palin from its web site, and then forbid all staff members from mentioning her. Mentioning Palin at all tends to validate her in some basic way - and after our country's horrifyingly close brush with the possibility of a McCain-Palin administration, I don't want Palin to get any future support. When the media mentions Palin, they are CREATING the news, because mentioning her is the only thing that might make her powerful in the future. Palin has no potential to do good things for our country; indeed, she's a risk to the security and welfare of our country. I view promoting her quest for power as an insult and a threat to the American people.
Palin should retire from public life entirely. Every day that she acts in any influential role just promotes more stupidity and suffering in the world.
ja –
There are even more of us that aren't with her. You know, the people who are smart.
I think CNN should focus on the econimic crisis, the wars and the slaughter that are going on in the Middle-East and how we should bring back the american dream and regain the world's respect. Please forget about someone who was a disaster in the past campaign and a complete ignorant when it comes to the world and the foreigh policy. Really, it's like waching desperate housewives....We claim to be the world leaders while the level of ignorance and superficiality in this country is skyrocketting...
Just wait until the angry white men that make up the GOP deal with you, Sarah, on their timetable in 2012!!!
And quite frankly, Sarah, it is people around you who aroused all our curiosity on Trig when they stated they did not know you were pregnant, were surprised when you took time-off to have the baby and then returned to work three days after the birth looking no different than before you left. You refused to answer the questions then and have basically tried to wish away the nonsense!!! You have no pix of you during the pregnancy that you have shared, so where there's smoke, there's fire and curiosity!
Get used to it, because if you should succeed in getting the 2012 GOP nomination (and you won't), you'll have to deal with a man who is smarter, faster on his feet and all about no bull, unlike you who think it's charming to attack people and not the issues! Next you'll tell us you can see Canada from your patio, right?!
You also stated in one interview that you supported the efforts of the Swift Boat Vets, who were eventually outed as paid liars for T. Boone Pickens. So what say you to that?!
You claimed Obama had no experience "running a business" like you. How much did Pappy McCain have, other than the VP position he was handed by Cindy's family and then bungled that? Well?!
You accused Obama of being a terrorist because he "knew one" yet you and Todd belonged to a secessionist group, you admitted it, but yet you want to be VP, and potentially President, of a country you wish to seceed from?! How does that work?!
You accused Obama of being a terrorist because he knew one, yet you won't an
Face it, Sarah, you and yours are phonies of the highest order and you prove it every time you open your pie hole!
Tina Fey won a Golden Globe the other night, but you claim you made her career?! SNL is hoping you run in 2012 – they're dying for the chance at a re-match!
Let's be honest here – you were handled wrong by your own campaign and McCain's, and you wouldn't listen to anybody that tried to straighten you out, going so far as to "going rouge" on the campaign when it became obvious that you were going to lose this election and positioning yourself for 2012!
Saran "second-guesser" Palin here you are wondering what "shoulda-woulda-coulda" have been in the fall of 2008. On the surface it sounds like you are bitter with journalism which is the very profession you trained for in college or are you? Yes hindsight is 20/20 and as you continue with your public therapy after the November defeat, you may want to also publicly admit what everyone said to your deaf ears in the fall; yes you’ve been used. And in the right context anyone seeing Russia from Alaska doesn’t give them any foreign relations credentials whatsoever. The question that lead to you blurting out “you can see Russia from Alaska” had to do with foreign relations experience. I guess you’ll be mad a me too since I am just an “anonymous blogger” and of late it seems it’s everyone else’s fault but yours.
" — the comment about, you can see Russia from Alaska. You can! You can see Russia from Alaska. "
Yes, those of us who paid attention in 5th grade geography know that, Sarah! The question was 'What is your experience in foreign policy.' You answer, 'You can see Russia from Alaska.' Duh!!! That makes all of us who live in states bordering Canada or Mexico rich in foreign policy experience, too!!
Do yourself a favor, quit wailin' to the press about the press, shut up and get busy governing your state!! Afterall, hat's what the people of Alaska voted you into office to do.
I don't think anyone denied that Russia can be seen from Alaska. But Sarah Palin seems to be the onliy one who thinks that gives her foreign policy experience. If that were true, then the 120 or so people who actually live on Little Diomede have more foreign policy experience in their pinkys than Sarah Palin has in her whole body. Her statement was never taken out of context. The sad part was this woman and the McCain camp thought everyone else would buy into the lunacy.
Methinks she doth protest too much.
What's the matter Palin, when you were trashing Obama's name calling him a terrorist sympathizer, elitist, big city values it was OK? Well we don't want your close-minded backwards and radical mind anywhere near a decision making environment – 8 years of bush did enough damage to this country – go back to working on separating Alaska from the union like you did before. It takes some ignorance and arrogance to believe that you are qualified to run USA.
GO AWAY!!!
Palin??? Again????
Why is she obsessed with being in the media glare?
Maybe she can try to run for president in 2012. Maybe she'd pick that half-wit JOE THE PLUMMER??
Come on, people, get real!
Sorry, what morals Sarah Palin have? Like Mother like daughter.
She does not care about Families, just imagine how much she supported the mother of her husband when she was running for office.
Is this the person you want to be a Leader, give the American Citizens a break. She should shut up, and try harder to prove to us how she can see Russia from her Porch.
BB
Sarah, during the campaign no one could get NEAR your doctor....remember 2 days before the election your doctor sent a basic She acts like she is the only person being blogged about.....just ANOTHER proof that sheis totally self-centered and only interested in things that affect her personally And, when people protest over and over and over about a news point (i.e. Trig)......usually it ends up that they have something to hide!
The funniest part of this is that Sarah Palin is Sooooo naive she thinks she can have the last word against all her critics.....give it up Sarah, this is the way of the world in politics. If you can;t stand it RETIRE AND GO HUNT POLAR BEAR (since you don;t want to protect them.)
Simply astonishing. Does she seriously think she's improving her public image with these comments? I beg the news media to cover every Palin comment between now and 2012 so that she can continue digging her party into the hole of stupidity.
To ja: I agree...she's a breath of fress air. It must all be escaping from her empty head. Great and intelligent? Alikeness? I'm sorry, but I want a leader to have a grasp of the English language before I give that person access to sensitive material that she likely would not even understand. If she's great and intelligent, ja, that must say volumes about your grasp of things.
I can hardly wait for 2012 if she's the frontrunning GOP contender. It's going to be a slaughter.
"alikeness." Wow, tremendous speecifying, as Pres. Bush might have said. Maybe she should have run with him. It would be a mistake to misunderstimate her.
ya betcha....
the reason the Sarah Palin scares you liberals and the liberal media and the fake women's libbers and the left wing democrats, is that she is a self made woman. she was not born into wealth, politics and fame and fortune. she's the new Ronald Reagan. she's the real deal. truly a breath of fresh air. american people love her and she connects with them. that's why the lefties hate her. as a matter of fact, she would have been a better choice for president instead of that old fool – McCain. watch out left, she's gonna be there in 2012.
cheers.
Why is she still news? I don't see coverage of the other more important governors (except Blagoblago)..
Time to move to important subject CNN like what will happen to our lives in 2009. Sarah is yesterday news and should stay there!
Sarah Palin, just die already.
Please stop giving Palin press coverage. Spend more time covering meaningful people who are making a positive impact in trying to solve some of the current problems in this country. They just may inspire others to do the same.
Poor little Sarah, playing a victim just like a typical right-winger.
you know this woman needs to go to the alter with oil not just on her head, but dipped in all over. she reminds me of a scene in the movie color purple when the lady says .........WHAT ABOUT ME!!!!!!!!!
I truly hope that she will run for Pres in 2012. She's a strong person who can think for herself. Just watch what happens under Obama the next 4 years, you will ALL be asking for President Palin to fix the mess the liberal democrats have gotten our country into.
You get what you give . . . . So shut-up and take your medicine. Just say ah! Teehee!
how dare a journalist actually investigate.
Stepping into the spotlight brings media scrutiny. She cannot expect to be in the news only for positive reasons. Palin needs to stop whining about every unfavorable report in the media and start showing some dignity and grace.
Sarah Palin is incapable of accepting responsibility for her own behavior. If she wants to be a participant in the national political arena, she needs to quit being a whiner and a blamer and grow up. She behaves like a petulant 14-year-old girl who has a temper tantrum when she doesn't get her way.
What were the McCain people thinking when they chose her? Never in a million years would I have expected the Republicans to conduct a campaign with such a lack of preparation and overall stupidity.
Thanks John. Hopefully, the Republicans will nominate her for President in 2012. That will guarantee a Democratic victory and a filibuster-proof Senate.
She is certainly not a breath of fresh air, more like a blast of gas.
Is she for real? For someone who "hates" the media, you are sure spending alopt of time talking to them, Sarah. And all this stupidity about she was asked "gotcha" questions, well, answer the question. Folks, let's try this out:
Media: Michael in Houston Texas, you say you are in Houston but are you from Houston?
Michael in Houston: No media am a transplant.
See how easy it is to answer a question....Truthfully!
Sarah you are a joke and an embarresment to this country, go away!
I think my watch must be broken...I was certain her fifteen minutes were over.
I'm dont know what to say ,im at a lost for words.She is nuts
It is amazing the number of people that jump on Sarah Palin and rip her apart. The sad fact is most of them don't have sense enough to get in out of the rain. Should she keep quiet? Yes. Was she the right choice? Probably not. But then again, Obama is not the right choice in my opinion. By the way, he never produced his "Birth Certificate", just a certificate of live birth, that in Hawaii can be obtained up to a year after the birth and you do not have to be born there.....
Wow how long are you and other media outlets going to give this Idiot a form? Who cares if she and her daugther are having babies at the sametime? Hillbilly trailer trash.
Has Sarah never heard the expression, "If you can't stand the fire, stay out of the kitchen?" What did she expect accepting the vice-presidential nomination? She would be excepted from the scrutiny that accompanies such a nominationt? It becomes quite obvious and apparent - now that the election is long since over - Sarah never gave these notions much consideration.
As the others have provided as sentiment, please go back to governing Alaska. Your "poor me" attitude only solidifies your persona of a sore loser; gives an explanation why voters turned against you and the McCain campaign.
I'm with ya, Sister! I've been defending you on the Houston Chronicle website, from those who are brainwashed and haven't any human decency. They just make stuff up and slander you and your wonderful family.
So many people are out of touch with reality. Your family and each of your stories ARE what average Americans deal with daily. God Bless, Governor!
PS. I had better NEVER hear another word or complaint about SEXISM in this country, EVER AGAIN! We all may never agree on anything, but SHAME on NOW and other Feminists groups for turning their backs on the sexist treatment you were handed.
Palin has no clue as to how to deal with the National Public and continues to put her heels in her mouth. If she had answered questions honestly in the first place as opposed to being suspicious of every question, her point would have been made already. How long does it take to say what you have to say. If it is this easy to annoy her, she could never handle the management of a war or other serious problems.
Let go and let God, girl!
WOuld you PLEASE shuth the piehole already!!?? We don't care!!! Go back to making snowballs and hunting. We didn't want you and your agenda. Done. Move on.
How does this woman keep making the news? I hope a polar bear eats her.
Ooooo.k. why is Palin still talking 2 months affter the election? She's starting to sound like a sore loser. I honestly believe she's trying to keep her name in the spotlight so she can campaign for 2012. God help us all!
ATTENTION SARAH PALIN! YOU LOST THE ELECTION SHUT UP GO HOME AND PLAY GRANDMA!
JA
Are you related to Sarah? Because only her family members and maybe close friends want to see her run in 2012.
This woman is polarizing and does not get it!!! What she needs to admit is that this country is moving in a different direction. Get use to it! And she can stop blaming others for her stupid comments. It does not matter if you can see Russia from anywhere in Alaska that does not equate to foreign policy experience...like Steve Harvey said, "I can see the moon from my backyard that does not make me an astronaut." Get it together, Sarah and stop whining!
Goooooo awwwway. If you think you have any chance whatsoever next time, you'll not continue to make a fool of yourself now. What a maroon.
No presidential or vice presidential candidate went through the extreme level of scrutiny that Barack Obama had to endure. Palin is a nation of whiners all by herself.
Jeannie January 13th, 2009 12:19 pm ET
The way the media treated Sarah Palin during the campaign was demeaning and disgraceful.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Her coy smiles as her Conservative supporters, in regards to President Elect Obama, cried out to 'Kill' the 'Terrorist' or 'Arab' wasn't at all disgraceful.
After all, her 'maverick' supporters were only putting 'Country First', right?
Sarah, you are the Queen of Lies. From the second you stepped on the national stage. Trying to hide your daughters ilegidimate pregnancy with a blanket over her stomach and holding the baby, to your bridge to nowhere. You never stopped. Your biggest mistake is to think you are smarter than the American public. Your not. Your an idiot. Go away.
The biggest lie is the one she told herself – that she was qualified to be VP. She needs to realize that her selection was just a political tactic designed to appeal to disenchanted Hillary supporters, to get the Evangelicals mobilized and to diminish any bounce Obama might have gotten from the Dem Convention. So if you break it down, the qualities that put Palin on the ticket were that she was an unknown woman who appealed to religious extremists. Not very flattering credentials to start with, but incredibly, those credentials became even worse once we found out a bit more about her.
What will it take to make this woman go away? Her 5 minutes if fame has long gone. She is nothing more than a huge McCain miscalculation. Can we get on with the real world now?
Yet again, she mangles the English language. Seroiusly. "Alikeness"?????
She's entertaining. And I think if I knew her personally I'd probably like her because she has a lot of self confidence and charisma. But, she's also not too bright, and overconfident. The Trig thing is something people don't believe and don't care about in the first place. It's a lifelong endeavor raising a child with Down Syndrome and my hat is off to her and I hope she and her family manage it the way so many other families do, with love and balance. The other stuff – some people can't see the forest for the trees. She called Obama a pal of terrorists. She openly questioned his patriotism – not because she belived it – but to get elected. The media has a responsibility to follow up on actual, real news. They should pursue and report the facts. But I agree with her sometimes the facts they choose to ursue are hardly newsworthy.
SARAH, SARAH, SARAH. Please stop further humiliating yourself.
CNN, please find some real news to report, that we acturally care about.
Whatever>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
This is a non story. She needs to quit trying to keep her name in the news. Go away already. All it does is remind me of all the lies she told while on the campaign trail and how she tried to incite people against people. She may be a "maverick" but she's certainly doesn't know how to unite people.
@Simon "She also says she has "….got a lot of great life experience…" Such a description is virtually meaningless – it's not even literate English – and on that basis, countless millions of Americans could run for the Presidency!"
One did, and he actually won with no more experience than Palin.
There is really very little left to say about this unconscionable waste of space, except that she's as dumb as a bag of rocks.
No offense intended to the rocks.
It was not "racist" for Palin to say that Obama "palled around with Terrorists."
That's the fact, Jack.
Terrorists and felons- that's the Chicago way, don'tcha know?
You betcha!
Palin is whining about the Media and bloggers and continuously playing the part of victim, yet she "thinks" she was qualified to be VP? Laughable. If she can't handle the Media and bloggers, how can Palin handle real issues?
The thing that I find most interesting is that she just doesn't get the point. Nobosy was questioning the fact that one can see Russia from Alaska, it just was not relevant to the question being asked of her foreign policy experience. That fact is more suited to a Alaska tourist guide than to a serious foreign policy question in the midst of a presidential campaign. It is her complete inability to see this distinction that is the real issue here.
I am beginning to understand why she was kicked out of every college she went to after one semester.
Why is there so much attention still being paid to this woman? Every
week there's some new story or controversy with her at the center.
I know she loves the spotlight; what else would you expect from a
former beauty queen? However, I think it's time that we just "LET HER
GO!" Please!
If she is so tired of – do as the republicans always tell us to do – change the channel. She cannot stay out of the spotlight because she can't live without the attention. If she wants the questions to stop then be open, forthright and give full disclosure. There were no "gotcha" questions. They were honest, forthright questions that anyone on earth who HAD and answer could have given. She was too afraid to answer because she obviously does not read news publications and has no foreign policy experience outside of business deals which are clearly not the same thing. She is all flash and dash and little substance. If she really wants to do good, how about doing something about the rape statistics in her state which has the highest per capita rape percentage in the entire country. She spends so much time living in the limelight she has little time for real governing. Thank GOD she is where she belongs now.
Please – Ive had my life threatened on Politico's boards simply for supporting Obama.
Seriously Sarah get over yourself. You come across like a whiney child. The spotlight comes with being in public office. Instead of whining about the press and how unfairly you've been treated why don't you try being a leader and making some positive noteworthy achievements for the press to focus on. Bloggers that lie? The only thing most of us bloggers are experts on is our opinions and thank God we still have the bill of rights that grants us our freedom to express it. I'd like to see you use your brain instead of your mouth. Stop your chronic complaining and DO SOMETHING GOOD. You'll be amazed at how the media will follow that. Give them something to focus on other than your personal life. Govern governor. Personally I'd like to see you gone from the news and back into relative obscurity. So far you haven't shown me much more than your disgruntled behavior. Her's an idea for you BE A LEADER instead of a whiner.
The more I see this kind hate and ignorance thrown at the lady, the more obvious it is that she was the right choice.
Sadly, we'll soon have the less-experienced (but brighter-toothed) Star-Search winner running our country soon.
If bloggers can get under her skin, there is NO WAY she was or ever will be ready to be Vice President.
Ah, the Palin Media Machine rolls on.
Does she speak about the 'poor, anonymous, pathetic bloggers' who lie about Obama as well? Or just the ones that lie about her?
I predict we'll be seeing some sort of media tidbit from Team Palin daily from now until 2012.
Pathetic BIMBO is more like it, turning tricks for the desperate elite conservative trash
When will this chick figure out how much damage she in inflicting on her self?
Oh please, Sarah...go back to work. NO ONE CARES.
If you're going to put yourself into the spotlight, you're going to be a target of everybody with a computer and a blog. YOU CAN'T ADDRESS THEM ALL.
You have a state to run. Go back to that, and please, oh please, stay there.
ROFLMAO, if you can't stand the heat, sweetie, get out of the kitchen. I hope she keeps it up. She's the laughingstock of the nation right now, but the right wing freakazoids love her and can't wait to make her their 2012 nominee, ensuring eight years AT LEAST of democratic rule!
Ja-either your vote with your eyes, ears, and brain shut off or you just did not pay attention during the campaign! She is corrupt, just like the guy who picked her to be his running mate. Are you not aware that she abused her power while in office? She used the full weight and power of her office to launch a vicious personal attack! She was a typical republican attack dog. How many lies, bold faced lies, did Palin tell during the election? They had nothing positive to run on so they tried to destroy their opponent. The republican campaign was a series of lies, missteps, anger, hate, racism, the list goes on and on.
She could not handle the simplest of questions, and now she blames everyone else for the outcome. She should accept the responsibility of her actions, but evidently she is incapable of this.
Gov. Palin, your 15 minutes of fame are OVER.
Palin is right on the mark. She was targeted b/c she was a Republican. Women's Rights groups twisted themselves into pretzels trying to explain why they would not come to the defense of a fellow woman, regardless of politics. Obviously, these groups see themselves as Democrats first.
Palin was also on target re the media's attack on her family. In every election, candidates always ask the media to keep its hands off on the candidate's family. The media refused to grant Palin this same courtesy.
I haven't read the media attacking Caroline Kennedy's competency as a neofyte politician. And in her desire to be a Senator, she does not have experience nor paid her dues, except that she's a Kennedy,to sit in one of the most important political positions in America. But the media did attack Palin's abilities despite her being the chief exec of Alaska.
Double-standard? You bet. And those who defend the media's attacks and hypocrisy are still defending their actions by emotionally attacking Palin. No facts. Just the usual liberal shrieking.
Liberal hypocrisy.
Palin did not do well and continues to show poorly in the media. But to me, as an outsider, she does seem much more like the usual American one meets on the streets of your country. As for the witch hunt about her childs mother it IS ridiculous; but a number of commentators mention Obama's birth certificate – you should be very careful in your comparissons; his "proof" did NOT meet constitutional standards for a presidential candidate until the evidence was put in front of the supreme court. And I have seen birth certificates from the hospital in a number of American newspapers which show who is Trig's mother.
Palin needs to go to the Obama school of media savvy. She gets slammed as a lightweight because she doesn't sound slick like Billary or Obama – she may well be a lightweight but how do we really know when her message is so deliberatly obscured by so-called journalists.
LOL this chick is a hoot
Margy Gunderson for president, dontcha know?
Sarah you are showing your dumbness again.........bloggers are not the media.............bloggers are the people who will vote for you or not vote for you if you run for anything in 2012........bloggers are people who either like you or don't like you. and write their feelings about you......and I see more bloggers that are against you than they are for you...........
Sara, shut up, raise your kids and get to work. I am paying taxes for you to work, not get more 15 minutes. Your time is up!
PLEASE!!! Your 15 minutes of fame are over! Go away!!!
Well, I think a fellow musician here in Seattle summed it up best while discussing his regrets for 2008. He said that he regretted discounting Intelligent Design because the human that is Sarah Palin is proof that God exists and is trying to kill himself.
I have some questions for Sarah.
1. Has the Anchorage Daily News EVER run a story that gives credence to the idea that Trig is not your son?
2. Follow up – Has any other major news outlet run such a story?
3. Last question – Did you not give credence to the idea that Barack Obama was Muslim, when even your own running mate denied it?
Trick, Treat, Trott, Track, Toot, whatever, I agree with Alvino, it's hard to agree she was the smarter of the two on the repub ticket
For someone that loves the limelight, she sure does not love the limelight!
I tell you what Palin... Your teenage daughter just had a kid (while being a kid herself), and you have a new one yourself, you preach morality and "conservative values" which I guess does not include protected sex I take it? Your life has been great.. your a Governor for petes sake, I am not knocking you there, but girl, give this whole media attack frenzy thing a break will ya? You are a journalist's dream as your life as we see it is a roller-coaster and an ironically a perfect example that the "Conservative Morality" approach to rasing children is a disasterous parental approach... Of course the media is going to report it!
You just don't get it....Palin..........nobody cares if they see your face anymore. In fact it would be great if we didn't ever have to hear about you also. Get over it, no one wants another comedy hour with you as the attraction. Stay in Alaska and use your "wink, winks and ya sure and you betcha's up there.
I think she was talking about people just like those who spend all their time posting hate mail in here. You folks who think you can't live a day without writing something hateful about Bush or Palin, Obama or Clinton - please go get jobs or find something constructive to do.
Your constant whining in every article in this section is boring, repetitive and shallow. It's not just Sarah. We're all tired of you, both on the left and the right.
Grow up, please.
Go Away Sarah! Thanks!
Trig + Tripp 2050!
Hey musicman. She did release her medical records during the campaign. And yes, they verified that she mothered her son Trig.
Is it just me or are most of the people making comments here COMPLETE MORONS?? Please people, go read a book. Educate yourselves. Let me translate for you....get edumacated.
I love these "poor Palin – we're with you, we love you, everyone just leave her alone, she's great and inteligent (sic)" etc etc ad nauseum.
So it's the whole worlds fault and she has nothing to do with it?
And how does that sand taste anyway?
Ok, this is just straight up McMoosie trying to reinvent herself, with old material. Who was it that said "be kind to the disabled (SP)". She still can't string together 2 sentences that make sense. And she's a Journalist? Four Universities and 6 years? C'mon. If we goad her too much, we'll see her in the next election. There were, remember, 56 million American voters stupid enough to give McSame and Failin a chance to destroy our country even more.
"Sarah, Sarah, Sarah, your such a whiney little hypocryite. What about when you and your supporters were calling Obama a terrorist and the shouts of kill him at your rally's? Where was your outrage then?"
It was proven time and again that reports people were calling to kill him were just not true. From the Secret Service, to people at the speeches, to the campaign workers, to most media covering her, they all said those reports weren't true and made up by "pathetic bloggers who lie".
By the way, I can't get any of my comments posted, yet the brilliant Corey gets posted with "shut up lady". Another fine, non-partisan job by cnn.
......................and the right wing bloggers were so fair and balanced with Obama. I think the questions about her youngest child was very fair. We have not seen any medical history on the birth of that child. Palin's own adminstration in Alaska said they didn't know about her being pregnant til she was 7 1/2 months. Her sexually active daughter was mysteriously absent from school the last 4 months that the fetus was in someone's body. To this day Palin has never proved that she had given birth. Secrets like that don't stay hidden for long.
Sarah needs to understand that most of the attention she got was because she is so terrible pathetic – kinda like Nicole ... oh what was her name – that vapid tramp that married a billionaire and then died in a super 8 motel in Los Angeles.
She certainly seems to be obsessed with her own image and importance. Someone this thin-skinned should have stayed out of politics where everything is game. What did she expect the response to be when she held herself up publically as a "real American" and implied that anyone that did not have her "family values" was somehow less of an American? Her unwise comments and hypocrisy are what created all of this backlash. Now she is desperately trying to do damage control and rewrite the campaign history. And she thinks McCain should have allowed her to speak more and have more say? Good grief.
Wow, this woman could have been one metastisizing cell away from the nuclear codes! Frightening
Ms. Palin, Welcome to America. Better people than you have decided not to enter the national political arena because they knew that the media, the internet, bloggers and just about anyone else would peek into their lives and pick on anything that would sell a newspaper or give them an audience. Personally I think that sucks but I'm not in the public eye and guess what, nobody is picking on me. You play you pay. Get over it and move on! Oh, and please do run in 2012. It will make it easier to keep the GOP outta the white house.
Don't blamed Palin a bit for fighting back at these idiots. These low life attacked her childrens. That is why they're called liberals......a bunch of spineless wimps.
I liked the GW in drag. But really Palin is the type of cry baby politician that has become the primary reason i intend to Emmigrate from this country and immigrate (yes two seperate words) to the UK. Palin and the GOP reject challenges to the authority to which they are elected. A fundamental right that was exercised by the founders of the constitution.
Lets face she complained that because Obama was born to a Kenyan in Hawaii he's not a citizen, but McCain was born in Panama, yes the Panama Canal Zone was indeed under US control but it was not the US.
Second, her election was not about real Amercians but mostly about evangelical Americans. Her interest wasn't in portecting the rights of Real America but instituting the type of pseudo theocracy that currently runs the State of Utah.
According to Merriam-Webster, "alikeness" is a word – however clumsy. Spell checkers reject it so it's not common. "Similarity" would have been better.
Palin needs to learn to speak English. . . and then shut up once and for all!
For those who are blogging and asking who the mother of Trig Palin is. I find it noteworthy that Down Syndrome births are more common in older adults. This is where it can most likely be identified that Sarah Palin is 100% the mother of the Down Syndrome child "Trig". If you all do the research of this syndrome or have a relative in the medical field, like I do it is sound proof that it is her child
Sara Palin Moral???? OMG!!!! She is as moral as a $3 Ho!! First she gets pregnant before she is married. Look it up, her first son was born 8 months after she was married. Then she is too busy to raise her children propperly. Her oldest son had HUGE drug problems so they sent him to the millatary, her next daughter is also an unwed mother. With morals like that...Stalin was a saint!!!
The woman has no idea that she is being used as a diversion from all the bad economic news. She does provide a good laugh.
Ms. Palin, Welcome to America. Better people than you have decided not to enter the national political arena because they knew that the media, the internet, bloggers and just about anyone else would peek into their lives and pick on anything that would sell a newspaper or give them an audience.

It will make it easier to keep the GOP outta the white house.
I wish Sarah Palin would just disappear. Alskans may have been dumb enough to vote for her but the rest of America isn't going to buy it.
As one of the "bored, pathetic bloggers", I would just like to thank Gov. Palin for the compliment. It is a compliment, when it comes from someone with her minimum level of intelligence. While I would never question anyone's lineage (except maybe my own), I do question her ability to effectively run a lemonade stand, let alone one of the biggest states in the union. And I must say, for someone who probably thinks the media should be overall eliminated, she certainly uses it more often than any other Governor in the USA. Oh, and if Palin does run in 2012, I'm moving to Japan, they always seem to produce intelligent, capable leaders.
It is a sinful, and the Devil controls the media. Who sweats the small stuffs?
The media was indeed diligent and harsh on Sarah Palin . . . but that's one of the negative aspects of a life of public office and servitude. Your every action and word is scrutinized. Honestly, if she can't handle the critcisms and attacks of the media, how on earth can she stand up to the global, culture, environmental, religions and economic conflicts that our nation is facing?
If she thinks the New York Times is tough . . . maybe she should ask Al-Qaeda what they think of her!!!
Just another fly-by-night celebrity that is now complaining about being thrown into the spotlight. Enough already!
Please, lady, go away!!!
This woman becomes more of a Jerry Springer Guest every day. Sarah, shut up and go shoot some seals or something.
If Sarah's husband Todd is Alaska's First Dude, does that make Bristol's child Alaska's "First Grandbast@rd?"
This woman should never have made it past president of the PTA, yet has found herself tripping upstairs from mayor of a tiny town, to governor of a state with the population of that of a small city, to a VP nominee who cost the Republicans the election.
Her tasks from her jobs as "governor" and parent must be pretty slim, considering she never seems to be doing anything but whining about things that happened months ago. I will never, ever, pull a lever for her, and neither should anyone with a three-digit IQ.
Its all the fault of Mc Cain. How could he in his senses have taken such a woman on his ticket. And just imagine if she were to become President one day
Palin in 2012!
Deb "And will you PLEASE learn the English language? Alikeness? Is that really a word?"
Are you kidding? Yes, alikeness is a word. Why don't YOU learn the English language!!
This is the thing about cnn posts, people write their posts and pretend to be just so much smarter than everyone else…yet, Deb doesn't know the English language, Joe the Schmoe doesn't know who took the Obama citizenship case to court, and rin says nobody cares about Palin, yet posts are popping up like crazy on her story. No wonder why you are all liberals, you are all clueless and hypocrites.
Pathetic bloggers who lie huh? Better than inept, bimbos who run for vice-president I suppose. How's Russia looking these days Sarah?
What a douche bag.
Oh my gosh...when is her 15 minutes over, already???? Isn't it time she accepted her brutal defeat with dignity, took a step out of the limelight and tried learning something from the candidate who won the election?
Whay is she constantly running her mouth. Dosen't she have a state to ruin. Somebody tell her the election is over. If she ran tomorrow she would do the same thing and end up with the same results. She is a perfect example of the dumming down of American society. The fact that she is granted interviews means that the media believes that some people think she has something to say. How pathetic.
I firmly believe that Palin's supporters deserve to live in a country that she runs. The rest if us just don't want to get dragged down with them... maybe we should let Alaska leave.
The venom towards this woman even on the board is really despicable. Why do you liberals hate her so much? Because she is pro-life? And by the way she did not lie about Obama palling around with terrorists, he was and did with Bill Ayers and his wife who are domestic terrorists. Ayers himself admitted it in an interview so where is the lie? Typical liberal hypocricy, you want everyone to be so tolerant but when someone disagrees with you, liberals are the most intolerant bunch around, just read these posts.
she is a sorry excuse for a human being
I think Trig's parents are Track and Leiv's sister.
I'm no Palin supporter, but for CNN to point every gonna and ya is unfair. What about pointing the other speech mannerisms of all those people covered by your network? Please be fair.
I WILL SUE MCCAIN FOR INSULTING THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WITH SARAH, AND JOE THE PLUMER.
A politician with no ideas and no intention of shutting up. Everyone's worst nightmare.
My god. I have never heard a politician whine like a 5 year old as much as she does.
So adept at blaming others for her own shortcomings, -really a perfect GOP candidate.
All lefty crazies on cnn: she would go away if people like you weren't so interested in her. You saw her name and her picture and you opened the article. The reality is she draws interest, from both sides of the aisle.
She make a good point here about her son though. It is disgusting the questions she is asked about him and by those that consider themselves true journalists. As for her being more vocal in the campaign, I think she was vocal enough.
It would be best if Gov Palin left the scene quietly.
To blogger !@#$%^&*()_ : There was never anyone shouting "kill him" or "kill Obama" at any McCain-Palin rallies. It was proven to be a false story months ago.
Pete:
Honestly, do you think the MSM dug really deep when they were vetting Obama? I laugh if your answer is yes. Your argument is so one sided. If the media (say at least 50 reporters which would be only a fraction of the reporters that went to Wasilla) descended upon Chicago and looked into everything about Obama's background, including Billy Ayres and Tony Rezco....hell even Blago, then I would argue that Ms. Palin was treated like any other person running for office and that she should "shut her whining".
Obviously you can't let it go Sarah because you are still here...
I think she should consider how her comments and interviews are looking a bit more desperate now. She'll never be taken seriously and Palin needs to take a lesson from John McCain who went away right after the campaign.
This idiot misses the attention she got during the election campaign, that is why she can't shut up. It will continue and probably get worse unless the networks' ignore her; but I guess that is too much to ask..
go away! I've had it with simple country folk who complain when the tables are turned!
Remember when Republicans were all about taking personal responsibility? Sara, the reason you lost was not because the media had it out for you. The reason you lost was because Americans were not interested in what you were selling. It’s time you took responsibility for your own actions and stop blaming everyone else.
It's just one ridiculous cycle. Sarah Palin complains about the media, but CNN continues to print tabloid-type articles about her. Sarah, if you don't want to comment anymore about Trig, then just hang up the phone when the Anchorage Daily News calls. Most people wish they could just hang up the phone on you. Your like an annoying pre-recorded telemarketer who calls during dinner. By the way, does the New York Times call asking about Trig or have they called off the story now that they realize you love New Yorkers so much.
Is there nothing else that Sarah Palin can comment about? Is there anything else she can get fired up about? Jobs? Economy? Foreign affairs? The environment?...Anything?...Nope. It's just Tina Fey, Katie Couric, her hatred for bloggers, and Trig's legitimacy.
Next we'll see her on the cover of People. The headline will read: Sarah Palin speaks out about her affair with Brad and why she's trying to patch things up with Angelina.
If she called any more of the shots, her team's defeat would have been a much bigger landslide than the doubling that they received. Every time she spoke, she said just plain stupid things. I hope she does run in 4 years. It will be a cakewalk for Barack.
That gives her 4 years to think of the name of a newspaper that she can pretend she reads. It also gives her time to think of a supreme court decision.
She's right.Pathetic,bored,anonymous bloggers are annoying and so are all of you.Leave her alone and go back to masterbating in the cellar of your parent's home.
Its everyone's elses fault except herself.... how fast can you burn through what little credibility you have left?
I am a greatgrand mother prolifer christian and an obamacan.
I have watched and listen to mrs.palin and I am convinced that she is a good mom and will be a good grandmom. I believed that God called her to be just that. I believe that she is a front gov. that their are people behind the stage because of the ways she express her(a lack of political policies, she has none) her speeches are filled zingers,
sarcasm and snarkiness. she didnot know Barack Obama or had read his books and yet she agreed to use snarkiness remarks against him. Now she feelthe media was caricature against her. I am happy that most of americans didnot fall for her they saw right through her. she called her self a pit bull with lipstick well,where is her pit bull.
now she is sounding like a mother and want what she is saying about her children to be excepted. I am sure that if obama mother was living she would have been upset by what palin said about her son,this what mother do. I do pray that she repent for all that went wrong and stop blaming others and give God a chance to work out somethings in her families lives. Everyone she blamed have children that donot want to read the things she is saying about their famlies. you reap what you sow,especially throwing stones. I do think that america fill in love with granny palin because she seem to be a loving mother.
What is the difference between "bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie" and boring, egotistical, pathetic losing Vice-Presidential candidates who lie? After all the slanderous mud Palin slung on the campaign trail, she is being extremely hypocritical when she whines about alleged lies directed at her. The golden rule, Governor Palin, the golden rule ...
The stuff about Trig WAS stupid. The vast majority of the rest of it was factual. And that's what I think she's really worried about.
And this is the next presidential canidate of the Republican Party! It's just another insult to our intelligence. America came so close to loosing everything with the McCain Palin ticket. We would have just imploded from within. Stupidity reigns in the Republican party. At least it's contained!
CNN, please stop covering this poor pathetic attention ***re. I've never seen so much attention focused on a loser. She cost the Republican party the most important election in the country, maybe the world. I usually consider myself a moderate, albeit leaning left, but found myself voting a straight Dem ticket this year, mostly because of Palin. If she doesn't shut her yap, the next election will be even more lopsided.
That being said, the media (which, Sarah, doesn't include bloggers. Jesus, woman) should also back off of her. Every time they ask her a meaningless question, like about Trig (snicker snicker... Trig???), she makes another headline.
Why the media keep showing this woman?? who is she???Please give me a break, somebody who do not even know what she's reading????? She doesn't know anything about politics!!!!So Pleaseeeee I don't want to see her again.
Thanks
let her whine.
the more she does the less likely she'll have any chance in 4 years.
and to those of you who think she is intelligent...
please shed some light on this for me because i haven't heard one sinle shred of intelligence come out of her mouth.
C'mon...enough of Palin. Please. Only in the U.S. does someone like this become a state governor and draw so much attention. It's nauseating. Really. ENOUGH.
If she doesn't want to hear what the public has to say, then how on earth would she make a good VP or president? Don't they work for the people?
Too bad that she doesn't like what we have to say. Put on your big girl panties, Palin, and deal with it. If it was up to me, you wouldn't even be governor, much less president.
Oh, and I saw your interview where you tried to defend the "what books do you read?" question from Katie Couric. Well, we do want to know, and it's NOT a hard question. It reflects your interest / knowledge of the world...you know, something you would need to have if you are running the country. We already had an 8 year failure at that...Why the struggle? Oh, yeah, and you need to be able to form a sentence too....
I agree with SA, just go away!
Palin, who told lie after lie, smear after smear, and innuendo after innuendo is now complaining about bloggers who do the same. Sounds like justice to me.
Palin was PERFECTLY OK with taking advantage of all the lies flying around (and still flying around) over the internet to try to besmirch Barack Obama's character during the election. But now, when she is confronted with the lies that are aimed at her, she finally finds the need to call them what they really are – just lies.
If you now want us to have any sympathy for you, Sarah Palin, it would help if you had shown a greater respect for "the truth" as it applies to all of us, and not just your own self-interest. I, for one, agree with you that the lies about your grand-daughter's parentage are repugnant – just as repugnant as the lies about Obama "palling around with terrorists".
There is something called integrity, and it is why I supported Obama this time around. It has been missing for far too long from American government, and it is good to get it back.
america is not yet prepared to accept a woman leader. look what they did to ms clinton and ms ferraro. they all got the worst critism ever thrown to candidates of the highest position in america. Its like anybody but women. However, just like the black people it will come to an end. KEEP FIGHTING,SARAH!
hOW come many were said about the remark of Ms. Palens father when informed that Ms. Palen was being chosen to be the running mate of Sen John Macain. So much has been said about ""Holy Cow"". But nothing has been sa id of Ms. Obama's "For the first time in my adult life i respect america. What? And where was she staying and enjoying life before Mr. Obama got the nod?
For everybody saying they wish she would just go away. Why you would you want that?
Palin is so entertaining! I love hearing what she has to say . And the more she opens her mouth, the less likely she is to win an election in this country... I want more Palin interviews, the more the better
I can't decide whether this woman is brilliant or ignorant. My guess is the latter but here we are still reading stories months after her star should have burned out so she at least deserves the benefit of the doubt. She's still in the spotlight and as long as someone is willing to point a camera at her she will continue to be. Mark my words, next week when this story is an afterthought she will give an interview where she complains that people are still questioning her about the clothes. No new news but it will get people talking about her again.
Sarah please do yourself and the rest of us a huge favor. Go away. Nobody is interested in anything you have to say.
If using your family as a way to stay in the news then you are the biggest hypocrite of them all.
GO AWAY BAD WOMAN!!
GO AWAY
you mean us unAmerican's don't like her.. Poor stupid woman .
Are you serious?!
Come on now, enough is enough! Your 15 minutes in the spotlight are over. Don't you have enought to keep you busy with a new grandbaby, a wedding to plan, your family and the state of Alaska?
I'm going to give Palin the benefit of the doubt here. When she said that when her water broke in Texas a month early while carrying a child determined to have Down's Syndrome, instead of doing the intelligent thing and going to a hospital in Texas, she instead hopped on an 8 hour flight to Alaska while in labor, thereby potentially endangering the baby and putting the plane in the position of having to make an emergency landing. She says she's telling the truth about that story, so I'll believe her.
I second the comment from the person who said that Palin sure was silent as hell about "anonymous bloggers" who were putting forth the theory that Obama was a sleeper Muslim illegal alien terrorist commie. Guess an internet that smears one's opponents is acceptable to Ms. Palin.
boo hoo! Whar aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. Cry Cry. Waaaaaaaa. Wimper Whimper. Sniffle.
PLease let her go, she is a nice person with good heart.
She continues to prove, on a daily basis, how lucky we are as a nation (and world) to have escaped THAT bullet. For someone who thinks women in politics shouldn't whine, she is the CHIEF whiner amongst them.
I now realize W was the male version of Sarah Palin. Why did we not see that 8 years ago?
So, instead of saying "for the ump-teenth time! YES, TRIG is MY baby!", she says "uh.. well.. ah.. also, you know, I think I don't like to want, also, to you know, play that game. Also".
and this intellectual behemoth wonders why there's still confusion. (I can use big words, she doesn't know what they mean, but presumes we're attacking her anyway..so it will mean to her what the sarcasm implies anyway!)
It must be nice to be an extreme left or right winger nowadays. You get to vent all your bile, hatred, bigotry and life's frustrations on the web. Did I say "all"? I don't think so. You seem to have an infinite store of these things.
Paging Dr. Phil again-
CODE RED!
If we're all wishing she goes away, why are we taking the time to not just read what she says, but also putting our 2c in.
Her personality evokes controversy. People want to know about her just like they want to know about other celebreties who have trouble with the real world.
Why ?? I ask myself why do I brother to read, listen , or respond anything Palin writes or says. It is a waste of my time and for that I confess I have sinned grossly.
CNN! Please, please, NO MORE PALIN!!!!
I guess my first draft was too windy. Sorry got carried away. Second try.
It's amazing as Governor ya'd have the time for this nonsence! Is Alaska payin ya for all the time yur usin on extra-curricular activites like ventin yur poor me hostilities live to the World? Journalism 101 here I come! Watch for me, I'll be runnin for VP in 2012! 4 yr BA not 8 ! HA
I am offended that the media still covers this woman. Don't they have enough to do?
Palin is right: most bloggers are pathetic. Not to mention depressed, and in general need of mental help.
Sarah Palin is like the Wicked Witch from the Wizard of Oz, she'll never shut until a house from Kanasa's drops on her or someone throws water on her.
It is true you can see Russia from land in Alaska. It's just to bad for her the question was about foreign policy and not "fun trivia facts about Alaska." The reason that answer made the news was because of the question, not the answer. The question was, "What is your foreign policy experience?" She answered, "You can see Russia from Alaska." That's why she is mocked.
KEEP TALKING SARAH! The more you say, the less chance the Republicans have in 2010!
I begin to see why Sarah Palin has developed the reputation for being vindictive and controlling. She should take her own advice and let it go. As for the paternity of your grandchild; perhaps you should have encouraged your daughter to pick a name that established her own identity instead of fitting in with your notion of cutesy machismo. Track, Trigg and... Tripp? How about Bob or John?
I would like to see some of you people make fun of the way Al Sharpton talks and see if it isn't met with serious backlash.
To all of you who want Palin to go away – stop reading about her and blogging about it!! I hope that after Barack is finished with his term that our economy isn't worse than it is now! Also to Deb M in Allentown, PA – use a dictionary – alikeness is a real word...
whats funny is with all the lying she has done–she has to be worse than any blogger
She's pretty pathetic. A true statesperson who represents the public would just ignore the petty blogs and do her job representing the people – her public work should speak for itself. Apparently, she has to muck up any performance or any good deeds she may have done whenever she opens her mouth. She'd be best served by sewing her mouth shut... then people may actually give her some respect.
Sarah's problem isn't with bloogers, but members of her own party who also have aspirations to be president and who actually are qualified for the office. They are the ones who will sabotage this flash in the pants "celebrity". But Sarah is doing a pretty good job of self-inflicting her own wounds. Just let her keep talking and the hole gets bigger. And Sarah, contrary to your spin, Katie Couric didn't ask you what newspapers you read "up there in Alaska". Maybe an easier question to have asked was "do you read?"
We booed her in Philly when she tried to come out a drop the first puck at the Flyers game for a photo-op...she's so phony. They had to turn the music waaaay up in the hockey rink to drown out the fans telling her to go home.
She plays the media game and got burned.
C'mon Sarah. Hush ... for the love of God! This is so high-schoolish. Your behavior proves why you helped your party LOSE.
EGADS WOMAN – please – I beg you – BE QUIET – enough already!
GO AWAY YOU TWO-FACED, DOUBLE-SPEAKING, NO-GRAMMAR, POOR-EXCUSE FOR AN ANYTHING, UNQUALIFIED, RABBLE-ROUSING LITTLE GIRL! JUST GO AWAY BACK UNDER YOUR ALASKAN ROCK! SHEESH! ENOUGH ALREADY.
McCain is a decent human being. The biggest mistake he ever made was bringing this toad into the national scene.
I think it is sad how so many people come on these blogs and comment as if they have any idea what they are talking about. We civilians have no idea what goes on fully. I am sure history will paint the truth. Be it a positive or negative one, however making such hateful comments while having little information just goes to show how ignorant people are.
I am very concerned for PE Obama. He is human, he is just a man and he has to work within the same system. He can not possibly change as much as people are thinking he will, it is not possible. I pray that the warm fuzzy feelings do continue so he can get things done, I just see that people in that system are already turning on him and he has not even moved in yet.
Stop, just stop. We need to love our fellow Brothers and Sisters. Even if you can not stand the things people do, we are called to Hate the sin, however LOVE the sinner.
Palin is none too bright, as the vast majority of us could detect from her campaign jibberish. But now, post-campaign, we learn that she is not above major, self-serving hypocrisy as well. She's the queen of distortion based on the flimsiest foundation. So she can fling the crap at people she disdains, but she sure resents having to eat some herself.
Palin's brand of low-information patriotism is the last thing this country needs. But since she looks so good on t.v. and is so comfortable rambling incoherently in front of cameras, it appears we'll have to put up with her ad nauseum, whether she makes any sense or not. She's a spectacle that won't go away because Americans love to stare at colorful train wrecks.
Palin needs to sit down and let the world move on. honestly, this is ridiculous. the presidential elections are over and have been over for a long time; and still, Palin is trying to grasp at all the media attention she can possibly get. most importantly, Palin is like Joe the Plumber, nobody cares about what they have to say, and anything they say lacks the least amount of intelligence, and yet they do everything they can to get as much attention they can get. this is overall is sickening, and the fact that Palin continuously tries to bring Americans back to the past and only helps the hatred and anger in this country grow, shows that she is one of the dumbest politicians, if she can be even called that, that was ever considered for public office. Lets face it, one of the more recent reasons to the Republican downfall and seperation, is because this idiot coninues to drag down this country and truly shows how stupid Americans can be.
WOW. The media sure has done it's job... look at the comments here... Sarah called Obama a terorrist? LOL.... keep on making things up kids... Lies? What lies? She's the only one that told the truth. People think she actually thought Alaska's proximity to Russia was an example of her foreign policy experience, whereas IN REALITY, if you read the ENTIRE TRANSCRIPT, you would know that it was merely an aside. Keep believing what the liberal media tells you! It will keep you blind to what's going on around you, such as the total economic destruction of our Economy by idiots such as Bush, Paulson, Frank, and Obama. Keep flooding the market with cash, you idiots!!
Thanks guys... now we have the most unexperienced, narcissistic President in the history of the Union who is ready to hit the final nail in our coffin. Perhaps, instead of reporting on Governor Palin, CNN should start asking President-Elect Obama some real questions... such as, what is he going to do after hyper inflation wipes out everyone's life savings after he continues the ridiculous Bush policies of flooding the economy with borrowed/printed money?
One reason she receives so much attention is because people like the commenters on this story continue to read everything they can about her. If you want her to go away, stop paying attention to her and writing nasty comments every time something comes out about her.
Quite frankly, it continues to be refreshing to me to see someone with a degree of success in politics who hasn't been coached and spun into a pablum that everyone can easily digest.
Please leave her alone. She is a good person and have a good heart.

Sarah, read my lips....NO ONE CARES ABOUT WHO TRIG'S MOTHER IS... that was a one week story months ago and the only who keeps bringing it up is you and Ann Coulter. Enough...go back to shooting moose and taking money from oil companies. Leave us down here alone. CNN ignore her please and deal with something important
Please, ignore her. IGNORE HER!
She feeds off attention, she suffers from delusions of grandeur. She is greatly confused about her own importance. Why does the media continue to give coverage to this illiterate fart-in-the-wind?
SHUT UP SARAH AND PLEASE PLEASE GO AWAY.
I am tired off seeing you, hearing you, and reading about you! I wont believe that baby is yours until you and your daughter go on the maury show and have a test done!
' I can see Russia from my house' as a nugget of foreign relations experience ... you couldn't make that one up ... please go away
What a complete and utter moron. She barely has the ability to form a complete sentence. She is sheltered, ignorant, and self-serving. She is a complete airhead beauty queen, primadonna, ex-newscaster who is only popular in Alaska because she doubled oil windfalls for Alasakans (gee, isn't that like SOCIALISM?!?!).
God, I hope she runs for POTUS in 2012!!!
As opposed to pathetic politicians who lie? Whodathunk?
Sarah Palin is not perfect. Neither are the rest of us. But she is not a hatemonger just because she has a biblical view of the world or morality. Why is she HATED by so many liberals? Primarily because she admits to a faith in God that actually impacts her daily decisions. And based on the hateful words I read here from so many liberals, I think the problem they have is more with the Christian God than with Sarah.
Again, I support what Sarah Palin has to say. It wasn't until this last election, as a Clinton supporter, that I began to understand what the Republicans said about the press and their reporting bias. I find it difficult to continue to read the New York Times because of that. I find it obnoxious and ridiculous that anyone is criticizing George Bush when both parties are responsible for the mess we are in.
Governer Palin – I agree with you that many people do not tell the truth and you have a right to say so – so now you have said it – please shut up! Your interviews with the national media were of your own doing – you were clearly not prepared and you failed – now you want to blame others for your own failure – why not just come clean and say that you were not prepared and that in the future you will do better. It always to me seems better to accept responsibility for my actions and then move own without trying to justify my weakness with blaming others.
this lady does not take responsibility for anything she does or says. CNN you are doing us an injustice to continue to report everything she does and says. note to Sarah Palin-McCain does not mention you anymore, most republican leaders do not mention you anymore, most people do not want to hear from you anymore. Just go away and stop this nonsense war with the media, bloggers etc. If Alaska wants you that is where you should be and stay. Believe me you could not lead the rest of us out of a brown paper bag, bad English and all
Well, she's got boring and pathetic down pat...if only she could become anonymous...
Still waiting for CNN or any other main stream media's story on the hoax called global warming along with any comments from all you lemming-like democrats who fell for Rotund Al's scheme.
Beth, wise up. You don't have to agree with the women's politics to understand that some of her complaints are accurate. I did not vote for her and felt her qualifications were very thin. However, the treatment she received from the press was pathetic.
Please make Ms. Palin go away.
Sarah , Sarah, when will you leave well enough alone...everytime you open you mouth you put your foot in it. Just go back to Alaska please and live a quiet life away from the cameras, we have seen more than enough of you now!!
We interupt this article for an important announcement:
PAGING DR. PHIL, PAGING DR. PHIL-–COME QUICKLY! THIS ONE'S A CODE RED. YOUBETHCHA!
"bored,... pathetic blogers"...right on!!!
Quit giving this woman publicity for saying nothing.
She didn't mind the anonymous bloggers when she smeared Obama anyway she could think of.
Let her go quietly into obscurity. Stop enabling her visions of grandeur.
wah wah wah poor Sarah didn't win this beauty pagent
Thank God McCain didnt win! This woman would have been a disaster as a VP and an abomination as a president. Sarah, just go away, far,far away
COME ON! BLOGGERS ARE NOT THE MEDIA. THEY ARE THE PUBLICS REACTION TO THE STORY BY REGULAR PEOPLE.
And for those of you that doubt her son is her son: Palin's daughter would have had to be pregnant with the second child during the delivery of the first. A medical miricle. Do a mental timeline and it just does not work. Trig is Sarah Palin's son not grandson!
I am a democrat that voted for Obama, but I read and do an evaluation of the BS and spin as what it is: BS! So should we all. The mud has been slung, sad to say some of the lies stuck.
She's boring, pathetic and we can only wish she would stay ANONYMOUS! Go away, moose killer!
SHE THAT DOTH PROTEST TOO MUCH.............
A smart woman would just shut up and quit bringing attention to her own faults. She craves the spotlight and the republicans should tell her to shut the h3ll up! She's making them look stupid... or she's too late.
Bye bye!
who really cares. palin is still trying to pathetically edge her way into the news. she's history.
bye bye sarah!
pam in oregon
Why is the "liberal media" still giving this pinhead credibility by acting as though anything she says matters at all? She clearly thrives on attention, and for some reason feels as though anyone cares. I didn't even read this article, because I don't care. I clicked on it simply to comment here.
When will this twit learn that bloggers are not journalists? Is she going to try to debunk everything on the big, bad Internets? What is this, high school?
Secondly, no one is talking about her unless she's out doing interviews or press conferences trying to rile up trouble. You lost, now just go away, for the love of all that's holy.
Who cares about Sarah!!!!!!! She lost
Please stop reporting anything about this person.
this is just more of the pot calling the kettle black. it's amazing how the members of the GOP cry foul when equal treatment is given to them.
Hey Sarah – you have some nerve picking on the media. You didn't mind using the media when it suited your purpose. You complained about Tina Fey & SNL – yet, you jumped right in and appeared with her.
If you are running for public office dear, you better develop some thicker skin. Also, you might want to start speaking using complete words – stop dropping the "g" in ing words, stop using "ya". You might want to start presenting yourself as an actual candidate instead of a "hockey mom".
However, unless you lose your conservative religious slant, I will never vote for you.
ya know, they be callin' and all. ya know. What an amazing product of small town university education standards. Please someone tell her to stop talkin' ya know.
Can we all move on, and who cares who Trig, Tripp or Track's parents are.
Go back to the world of Moose hunting, see you in July 2009.
Whine, whine, whine... yeah, we can only hope she is the face of the new Republican party. And when in doubt, blame it on the bloggers...not so original there Sarah...
Who's the greater fool? The one that keeps crying that she's not a fool? Or the fools that blog about her? Or the ones that report on her? Or the one (yours truly) that comments on that report
Person one: "I'm a Mac."
Person two: "I'm a PC."
Person three: "I'm a PB." (pathetic blogger)
This is the second time in a week that she's brought up rumors about Trig. I haven't seen anyone else discussing it, not for months now. Why is she doing this?
Sarah Palin needs to understand people will almost say anything about you. Welcome to President Obama world
...so, um, who IS Trig's mom, again?
Lord, who cares about the bloggers? Get a grip, lady! Your problems neither begin nor end with bloggers!
Go away is right!
Get lost, shut up, absolutely nobdy outside of Alaska wants to ever see your face, hears that squeakly voice of see that pinched up face again.
People, listen to yourselves, or at least read what you say after you write it. For goodness sakes, the Media is going to her. Maybe she has a point, why is it that we know more about her clothes and baby-mamma-ishness (I doubt that is a word either) than we do about Obama's so-called ability to reach across the aisle ? With a strict party line vote percentage of 96%, he was ranked 12th in Senate. As a matter of fact, the top 32 partisan Senators were all Democrats. McCain was ranked 65th. Or how Obama in his short two years in the Senate rose to #2 in the list of Senators who had accepted money from Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac lobbyists ? Second only to Chris. Dodd ! Whereas McCain was ranked 62nd ? Or how about how Obama is credited with getting $97.4 million in pork barrel spending for his state, and McCain took $0 ? Or how he sat in a church pew for 20 years and learned or at least heard nothing his minister was preaching ? or how HE got rich by providing a product that people wanted – his books – and actually used capitalism as a method of redistributing wealth of others to himself ( applause here), rather than depending on taxes to do it ? Capitalism seemed to work for him. Or any other questions that the media SHOULD have asked him but did not. For fear of hearing the answer ? for fear of exposing their mentor ? out of hatred for another party ? We all have hope, we all could use some changes, but honestly, you know nothing about the person you put into office. I HOPE it works out ok.
Ooooh, bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie and annoy her.
As opposed to bored, pathetic Alaskan politicians who lie and annoy 90% of the country.
Here's a news flash for "ya" Gov. genius. Blogs are not journalism. Don't lump them together.
The nation is in two wars, the nations economy has tanked and all this stupid woman can talk about is her. If anyone is pathetic it is Palin, who cannot comprehend there are greater concerns in life than her.
Sarah Palin is a misguided, self-absorbed fool!!!!! Thank God she didn't get elected into national office, it was beyond her capacity!!!!!!!!!
"Come on, are you kidding me?"
Right, exactly, but the question should be directed to CNN who continues to barrage the public with this woe-is-me train wreck.
She is right. Bloggers who spread malicious lies are losers. But CNN, please tell me why her feelings on this matter are newsworthy?
Can somebody please inform CNN and other "mainstream" media outlets that the election is over?
I Just wanted to congratulate Bristol on the birth of her second child.
the silly ditz...she just can't spit out the bitter bile of america soundly rejecting her and her grubby family. oh,sarah...PLEASE crawl back in 2012 for another humiliating defeat. PLEEEEEEEEASE!!!!!!
Sarah Palin probably wouldnt have even been nominated if it wasnt for a certain blogger. Jesus, this woman makes Bush look honest.
If you had called more shots, you would given Obama 40 more electorial votes.
Kind of like Ann Coulter, they cannot take responsibility for things they say, and then get angry about the WAY it is said back to them.
It's real simple Sarah, release your medical records and shut these people up. If you can't do that, then deal with the speculation. Unethical, fear-mongering, religious RADICAL persons like you, annoy me.
I guess it takes all kinds, huh.
I just watched Hillary Clinton talking to the senate hearings on the hill. The difference between Clinton who is educated and Palin who isn't
is light years. I just imagined her in the same position asClinton. what would she do? Wink!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Face it! Sarah Palin is a walking disaster area. The Gubernatorial race for Alaska is next year. I can hardly wait until this moron is no more and just in case you have forgotten. These are Sarah Palins claims to fame.
GETTING HER BROTHER IN LAW FIRED. And don't tell me she didn't use her influence.
THE BRIDGE TO NOWHERE, Not to mention the road.
THE DISASTER OF THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS.
HER HATE FILLED RHETORIC. Who does she think she is Anne Coulter.
THE DESIGNER CLOTHES. Which she still hasn't given back.
THE PATHETIC ATTEMPTS TO GET HER SON IN LAW (sic) A JOB.
HER PREGNANT DAUGHTER.After spouting her religious beliefs about morals.
HER SON IN LAW'S (sic) DRUG DEALING MOTHER. and her denials about that
HER WONDERFUL INTERVIEWS. She's the one who went on SNL and did the hand wave. Nobody asked her to partake. On a scale of one to ten she is a minus six..........................
Face it she's just a selfish self absorbed loser who can't except the fact that she lost.Who will blame anybody but herself. She is a sick
sociopath and the sooner she disappears the better.
And believe it or not there are people who believe she would make a wonderful president. She couldn't organise a macdonalds fast food outlet. Are you kidding me. Or to paraphrase Henry The V111. "Will Nobody Rid Me Of This Woman."
if people like "ja" truly think Sarah Palin is intelligent... then i truly worry about the future of this country. the writing is on the wall! Dumber than a fencepost... only in Alaska could this Wahoo ever be considered intelligent or experienced!!
P.S. interesting how Blago is being impeached for "abuse of power" yet Palin remains unscathed after their were simmilar findings of abuse of power in her case.... hmmm
if she were a man with her credentials, intelligence (or lack thereof)... no way does she even make it onto the GOP ticket. but she's HOT so we all watch... just silly.
The "you can see Russia from Alaska" comment was not taken out of context; it was displayed by CBS totally raw, in its entirety, for the whole world to marvel at her senseless babble.
Sarah Palin made herself into a comedy sideshow, and has nobody to blame but herself for her foibles; she needs to grow up. She keeps going to the well, trying to exonerate herself for her own silliness. Perhaps we misunderestimated her.
Palin is a moron, and that's a fact.
What you resist persists. Come on people, please stop posting comments about her! See how long CNN posts stories about her if there are zero comments posted about them because people don't care!! Find something else to give your aggressions to... she is not worth the time.
Palin Instead of grumbling because you don't get what you want ,be thankful you don't get what you deserve...To avoid lying,Do nothing that needs a cover up and stop blaming everyone for your mistakes and move on ......Senator McCain has Moved On
To think there were people who actually thought she was capable of being one of the more powerful people in our government...shameful. She's only a joke.. and she is drilling that point home with all of this "self defense" and blame placed on the media.
I wish Sarah would stop all that 'Whinning' It is pathetic. When will she ever go away? She is only harming herself!
I personally think she was a horrible choice, played very dirty politics and didn't deserve to be close to the nominating process for VP of this great country. I think she's doing now exactly what she criticized Sen. Clinton for, which is another example of her hypocrisy.
HOWEVER, I think anyone, blogger, reporter, man on a bar stool, anyone spreading false gossip about her child's true maternity is just trash. As we welcomed our second daughter roughly the same time as Trig's birth, I can only imagine my reaction if anyone publicly questioned her parentage. You just don't do that to a new parent, an old parent, a parent with a special needs child, or just anyone. That's just below human decency.
I don't care if she was irresponsible with the sentiments fostered at her rallies – that's no excuse for anyone else to behave like sub-human trash. So my sympathy is with the governor on that one.
Every other iota of her politics and style, I disagree with...
This woman is a fool, and whining hypocrite to boot. She had no problem regurgitating the ignorant 'secret muslim', 'not a citizen' and 'pals around with terrorists' talking-points on the campaign trail. If she's this delicate, how would she stand up to foreign leaders?!
Maybe you don't have this folksy saying up in Alaska Sarah, but here in Connecticut we often say "What goes around, comes around." You've sown the wind, enjoy reaping the whirlwind.
Sarah Palin – you have had your 15 minutes of fame. Now, quit blaming and whining and PLEEEZEEE GO AWAY!!!
I read somewhere Trig was actually carried by her husband, kind of like that Arnold Schwarzenegger movie

Sarah, you are the Queen of Lies. From the second you stepped on the national stage. Trying to hide your daughters ilegidimate pregnancy with a blanket over her stomach and holding the baby, to your bridge to nowhere. You never stopped. Your biggest mistake is to think you are smarter than the American public. Your not. Your an idiot. Go away.
Gary,
Your second sentence is a fragment. Your third sentence is also a fragment, and contains a misspelling of "illegitimate," as well as a misplaced phrase "to your bridge to nowhere," which has nothing to do with a baby. The last two uses of "your" should be correctly spelled "you're."
I find you have a severe inability to call anyone an idiot. Please get an education, and then you can try again.
Un-friggin-believable! I'm ready for this woman to be pulled off the national stage with a very long hook!
I think she is very cute and like seeing her in the news.
This chick needs to fade into obscurity like Anita Bryant. Like Anita, there was no filter from the brain to the mouth.
Good move...insult the bloggers. I'm sure they don't have the time to think of ways to continue messing with you. They will likely take it as constructive criticism and go back and check their "Blogging Ethics" books to ensure they have the appropriate citations.
Also,
"And I thought, Okay, more indication of continued problems in the world of journalism."
- First off, well done on the thought. Write it down, it was your first.
- Second, really? Saying that is like going back to the cook in the restaurant, telling him his food is the worst you've ever tasted, then asking him to re-cook it.
AGAIN? I am here to read about some interesting blog but what do i find? SARAH THE PAIN IN THE REAR.
I won't say much, except, PLEASE SARAH, GO AWAY. FROM DAY ONE, YOU HAVE BEEN NOTHING BUT A LIAR...YOU TRIED COVERING UP YOUR DAUGHTERS PREGNANCY, AND SO MUCH MORE.
gO aWaY.............................
G O A W A Y ! P L E A S E , P L E AS E , P L E A S E ! ! !
And by the way.....48% of the country voted for this woman as a vice-presidential candidate. So, to many people this is newsworthy. Typical liberals. In your mind the world revolves around you. If you don't like her...don't read the article. Just stop talking. You sound so ignorant.
This sounds like the almost-First Branch calling the Fourth Branch "hypocritical". How ironic....
Boring, wishing she'd have remain anonymous, extremely pathetic governor of Alaska who lies annoys me...
Sara, please, please, please just go AWAY and stop hurting yourself
#1 RELEASE OFFICAL HOSPITAL RECORDS SHOWING YOUR MEDICAL RECORD UNLESS THERE IS SOMETHING MORE DAMAGING THAN THE TRUTH ABOUT YOUR SON.
#2 START READING SO YOU CAN ATLEAST HAVE AN ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION [COME ON SARAH EVEN GEORGE TALKS ABOUT THE BOOKS HE AND CHENEY READ, IF HE CAN LEARN TO READ SO CAN YOU,MAYBE THIS EXPLAINS THE 6 YEARS, 5 SCHOOLS TO GET A JOURNALISM B.A.
#3 YOUR KID IS A DROP OUT AND SO IS HER FUTURE HUSBAND[AND RULES DO APPLY EVEN TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.LEVI NEEDS A BETTER EDUCATION THAN A G.E.D. IM GLAD SOMEONE CALLED YOU OUT ON HIS OIL JOB WHEN OTHERS DON'T GET THE SAME CHANCE AS HIM]
#4 STOP, SHUT UP AND DO WHAT THE PEOPLE OF ALASAKA ELECTED YOU TO DO[ A HINT: THAT WAS TO BE THEIR GOVERNOR
NOT COMPLAIN AND MOAN ON HOW BADLY YOU OR YOUR FAMILY ARE BEING TREATED
FINALLY DON'T BLAME MCCAIN. YOU SHOULD HAVE KNOWN YOU WERE NOT READY FOR THE BIG SHOW.IT TAKES MORE THAN JUST BEING ABLE TO SEE RUSSIA TO RUN A COUNTRY AND BEING MAYOR TO SMALL TOWN [LEFT WITH DEBT] OR A STATE WITH THE POPULATION OF MOST LOWER 48 STATES CAPITOLS[WHICH IS ALSO GOING TO BE IN BUDGET TROUBLES BECAUSE TODD AND YOU AND THE PRICE OIL]
Sarah who? I mean, seriously, who is this bimbo?
Palin: proof of America's socio-cultural lobotomy
please don't give her any more airtime CNN. This is clearly not newsworthy.
I'd love to hear what Alaskans think of all this attention to their governor–after all, they elected her.
Personally, I think each time she speaks out on these issues, she comes across as defensive and below the fray–she's shooting herself in the foot constantly, especially while trying to defend her actions. This does not speak well of her maturity and attitude. Her it's-not-my-fault-it-is-everyone-else approach to dealing with the press, bloggers, liberals, whomever, is not a defense, it's an indictment.
It's amazing she's complaining about people lying after the garbage she was spreading around during the campaign, and misstating facts. We can start with almost day one and the claim of selling the jet on eBay and take it from there. Do we want to get into claims she made about Obama? What's that saying? "Live by the sword....."
Blah,blah,blah,blah
I think the problem is that the "legitimate media" and "bloggers" have both been given equal weight in the popular media, when bloggers have no real journalistic standards that they are (ahem) supposed to adhere to. But honestly I've not heard any "real" media outlet (CNN, BBC, NPR, or any network affiliate news) following or promoting some of these tabloid type of stories. It's just Palin reacting as if the "real" media is doing this when it is a bunch of bloggers throwing rocks at her, which shouldn't be given the same weight as "the real media" or lumped in with "the media" when complaining about this. Palin should just fade away like a bad dream.
What makes me sick is the fact that she used her child as the poster child for a platform to get votes from parents in similar situations. To me, that is the most disgraceful thing to that child. Coming from a family that has issues of this nature, I found this to be repulsive.
I have to come clean... I've been the liar all along. I've done nothing but acted like an attention starved princess. I have blamed everyone but myself for what has happened. I have finally come to realize that i simply need to suck it up (which i do quite well boys... swallow too!) and just admit i am a failure.
She's such a bright, intelligent, and inciteful ....wait....hahahahahahahahahaha. Sorry, I couldnt keep a straight face. What a moronathon.
Sarah, please, please, please just go AWAY and stop hurting yourself
The records broke and the republicans won't fix that either. Either that or they deny she's a broken record. Okay, this just in, they are covering up the fact that she's a broken record. Wait.....They admit it and they are going to ask for another $1 billion in the bailout plan to get her some new clothes, a new doo and they think this will change things significantly . This may stop her complaints about, anonymous, pathetic bloggers. Like me. I'm bored. [sigh]
Awwww, she's cute when she's trying to remain relevant.
"And what about Vice-Presidential candidates…you know, the ones who call themselves Christians…who incite racist hatred and vitriol by lying and saying that Obama palled around with terrorists? Are you exempt from your own contempt?"
Explain why it is racist for the white candidate to mudsling during a campaign, but it is just good smart campaigning for the black candidate.
For all of you that are complaining about why she is still in the news, blah blah, blah.....simple answer.....don't read the article! There problem solved losers......some of you need to also "just go away"
Sarah,
Give it a freakin rest already.
Surely, in Alaska there is another trooper to get fired or a pipe line that's not built yet. You know, something better to do, like being a governor.
In a strange way she's proving all those people who, unjustly, said that as VP she wouldn't be able to focus on her job because of her kids right by focusing on her and her children and not her JOB! We dodged one heck of a bullet with that one.
The funny thing about Palin is that she actually talks as if she is more intelligent than the people she is talking to, when in fact the truth is exactly the opposite. Kind of like being talked down to by a pre-schooler.
Dear Sarah,
Shut the hell up.
Signed,
-We the People
Doesn't this woman get it? Don't speak any more... no one is listening.
"The media" has its problems. Still, in America, it's the cornerstone of our standing as a successful free nation. This is why I never trust ANYONE who hates ALL media. Sarah's obviously in that realm.
Imagine what her relationship with "the media" would have been had she actually got elected! Sheeeeesh!
Two points:
First... while I would really like to not hear from this person anymore, the more she speaks, she provides more ammo to the press/blog-o-sphere/rationally-minded Americans that will be used against her if she tries to surface for state/national office in the future. That has to be a good thing, so... keep flapping your gums, Sarah!
Second, the only sketchy story about her kid's birth came from her mouth... which led to the speculation on what really might or might not have happened and that may or may not have gotten out of hand. Case in point as to why the propensity to flap the gums doesn't serve her well. I view this as a good thing (see above).
It never ceases to amaze me that the mere mention of this woman gets people enraged. I guess some people just don't feel complete without hatred.
People, if you want to stop seeing stories about her, stop reading and commenting on them. The only reason they keep appearing is because they get a lot of hits, and if they get a lot of hits, it looks like people want to read them, so they get reported on.
Palin's problem is that she actually believes she is and was qualified to be Vice President of this Country! John McCain makes a huge error of judgment, loses the election, but Sarah Palin refuses to go away. I am beginning to believe she has mental problems. Shut up and run the state of Alaska would ya !
Sarah, Sarah, Sarah. You are wasting your time. I can see Russia on a Google satellite map, but does that make me an authority? No. Actually, the continued problems are with the Republican Party and your friends at the American Enterprise Institute like Bill Kristol who fell for your blather and your halibut cheeks, and now all of you are completely discredited. A word to the wise. While I find you very amusing, sort of like a black comedy sketch, you’re going to wear out your welcome with the people who support you if you keep giving interviews. By the time of the next election you will be as forgotten as any other flash-in-the-pan. People who would support a candidate with your credentials will have gone on to the next shallow sensation by summer. BTW, running a state is not like being the CEO of a company. States are usually not for profit entities to serve the people. Look at your friend George W who claimed to be a CEO and see where he brought us. Also CEOs usually have some education and experience and can speak clearly enough to be understood.
Signed Pathetic Blogger
Wow! The hate expressed in these comments is a poor reflection on those who make the comments. I never heard Sarah Palin describe herself as perfect, or some "holier than though" individual. These comments reflect the knee-jerk reaction people have to those who are not ashamed of their faith in Christ. The most popular governor in the country who exposed corruption in her own party, who did not seek the job of the vice presidency, and she was attacked repeatedly for not being perfect. I for one respect she and her family, mistakes and all (those whose family has no warts please feel free to throw the first stone) and thank her for her willingness to face the hate and lies with courage. I hope she can put this behind her and keep climbing the ladder because our country needs people like her. Great job Sarah! Many more people love you and your family for the energy you brought to a floundering campaign. It is easy for those who have never achieved what you have achieved, nor ever will, to sit back and spew hate and negativity. Those people have always existed and always will, but consider the source. You have been an incredible success in your young 44 years and I expect great things from you in the future. You are a winner and very blessed person of action. Keep up your terrific work! You make so many Americans proud!
I think she is very cute and love to see her in the news.
Very refreshing!
Isn't she frozen yet?
I am so proud of Sarah Palin! She's a True-Blue American, instead of being a Blue-Blooded American. She's a self-made woman, being elected to the office of Mayor and Governor without having a famous last name like Caroline Kennedy does. I never realized there were so many women-haters in this country until Sarah ran for office, but I see them frothing at the mouth at the thought of a smart, pretty woman being in charge. Sarah didn't make her fortune like the Kennedy's did (running alcohol in from Canada during prohibition), she actually earned it herself legally. She knows what it is like to work for a living, unlike someone like, say, Caroline Kennedy.
Sarah – you've got my vote in 2012!
What about the actions of Palin in attacking Obama during the campaign as being unAmerican and "palling around with terrorists". Talking about being "Clueless" ala the Alicia Siverstone movie. This woman is pathethic and Tin Fey and SNL were far to easy on her.
I can only wish that the Democrats,media,and left wing blogers were capable of comprehending the truth, (NOTE: I didn't call you all IDOITS)and for Sarah's sake,BE ABLE TO TELL THE TRUTH(which is asking everybody to take the high road)FOR THE ABOVE MENTIONED, NOT POSSIBLE.
Dear CNN: It is considered the civilized thing, when one sees someone who is obviously mentally deranged, howling incessantly at the moon and raving with paranoia, to quietly call mental health professionals to come deal with the poor soul. It is unconscionable to film that pathetic person, or print their every utterance, and to continue to hold them up to ridicule. Such a person is obviously unable to help him- or herself ... as is the case with that marginally functional moron Sarah Palin.
I appeal to CNN's better nature ... please stop covering her every drooling utterance....
)O(
Who is Trig's real Mother, Sarah Palin?
Is it possible, ever, for this woman to speak in a coherent sentence?
That's right, keep giving Tina Fey more material.
I never believed you could be unqualified to be vice president...she proved me wrong.
HAIL ANNE....the media should get the pechangas to tell her that at the conclusion of the interview!!!
2008 the year ethical journalism died! All we have are media mental midgets armed with liberal arts degrees who want to be celebrities.
Sara Please go away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why don't you and Joe The Plummer get togerher and just go away.
As fo the person Ja if there are a lot of people like you in Sarah out there, the United States has lot to worry about..
By the waway I can see the moon from my house does that make me a canidate to work for NASA?
Sarah says there's something wrong with journalists. Maybe the problem with some journalists is they went to 6 or 7 schools to get their degree and only just squeaked thru meeting the qualifications. You know, sort of like Sarah herself. Which is another reason why it's so clearly obvious that she was totally unqualified to be VP.
Sara, the whole world doesn't revolve around you. Your an idiot!!!! My opinion is that you are falling into depression. The huge crowds and spotlight that once adorned you are now gone FOREVER!!! Get over it for god sakes. Here's a news flash. Barack Obama is going to be our new president. Your chance is over........Govern your state for God's sakes and take care of the brew you have at home. You have enough issues with your family.
stop buying corporate products!
start growing your own food!
recycle everything and anything!
share your tools, like lawn mowers, with your neighbors!
stop betting against yourself by investing in wall street!
these measures will free you and your children and grandchildren from wall street loan sharks and corporate thieves!
The lawn sign in my neighborhood that read:
Geezer & Dingbat
Said it all.

Speak up Sarah! All the liberals that have responded by telling you to shut must not realize that you are only responding to stupid questions from liberal sources. Liberals keep the fire burning by putting Sarah in the limelight by making statements like a broken record...over & over again. Liberals are the ones that need to grow up and move on. Sarah in 2012!
Palin who cares about who Trig's real mother is, JUST GO AWAY!!!!
This is 2009.....GET OVER IT, MOVE ON, WE'RE ON A NEW CHAPTER NOW AND ITS NOT CALLED SARAH PALIN.
What it will take for Sarah to go away is for idiots to stop posting comments whenever there's a news article about it. Stop complaining. IT'S YOUR FAULT. Morons.
Children – time to put your toys away.
Right: She is great
Independent: I want to know more
Left: She's an idiot
Independents are the only voices that matter, the rest of you will never change your mind.
Palin needs to stop trying to equate bloggers with members of the media. The claims that Trig was not her child never amounted to much, especially in light of her daughter's real pregnancy. Just because a small number of bored, clueless bloggers kept repeating something that was obviously false in no reason to attack the mainstream media.
By the same logic, just because some clueless VP candidate kept repeating things that were obviously false is no reason to attack the GOP.
She has a Low Life style with her high profile position...
This women was minding her own business doing a good job of governoring her State. Then some moron in the McCain camp decided "hey, there are women out there who want a women on a ticket......let's find one".
So some McCain loser looks in a list of governors and picks Sarah Palin out of the list........she's attractive......she has breasts.....she's a "maverick".........that"s our girl!!!!
The rest is history and I for one feel sorry for her........she needs to go back to doing what she knows best........being a Governor and stay as far away from the press as possible!!!!
All these comments show why all democracies have failed. If this is the kind of sandbox, kindergarten intelligence that follows you people into the voting booth, then there's no hope for this country.
Get over yourselves, and stop hating Sarah Palin just because you vote for her opposition's party.
Yeah, and I could see NYC from NJ, too. Just not in my backyard, as you said. Go away!!!
Actually don't. These ticker messages that involve you saying stupid things are hilarious.
I love how this news site transforms anything bashing the Republican party into news. This isn't news, it's just designed to get liberal people agitated.
After reading some of these comments, it's amazing how much hatred is directed toward this woman and how much civility has regressed in this age of liberalism. God help this country.
she's right there is no accoutability by bloggers or the media.
lazy media now fed by bloggers.
Palin/Coulter 2012!
Actually the ones who should go away are the idiots posting garbage on here and most of the posts are garbage. I say again, your guy won, get over it and go get a life. Enough already, she's worth ten of any one of you. Oh and by the way, her "fifteen minutes of fame hasn't even begun.
What a bunch of pathetic bloggers. i'm on my lunch break – how many of the commenters here are still in their pj's? I'm sure most of you voted for the con man.
Sarah .... step away from the microphone ....
I'm surprised Palin just doesn't set the record straight on Trig so the media will drop it.
Instead she's getting blustery and accusatory, shifting the blame, and ignoring questions. Textbook lying.
Kind of like Blago saying he was going to set the record straight at his press conference, then he rambles about health care initiatives for five minutes.
What's most shocking is the quality of people we have running for governor the past decade: Palin, Arnuld, Ventura, Blago, etc....wow
The more Sarah Pailin talks, the better George W. Bush looks. Can this woman ever put more than two sentences together that make any sense?
Keep shooting your mouth off, Palin...you're finishing yourself for future political ascendancy.
This is truly amazing. Every comment on this story is anti-Palin. Either there isn't a single moderate or conservative that has read it, or CNN is censoring any comments that might be even slightly pro-Palin. Either way tells you something.
As for me, Palin is A-OK in my book. She did little more than take the misguided advice of her incompetent handlers in the McCain campaign, and she was crucified in the media. Not even her family was spared. As a mother, she has every right to come to the defense of her family, especially her 17-year-old daughter? Her poor daughter was victimized because many in the media disagreed with her politically. The people who smeared her should be happy Sara-cuda is keeping her comments to generalities rather than paying the perpetrators a personal visit. However, I doubt many of these so-called journalists have a firm enough grasp on logic to realize that.
“That's an alikeness between Alaskans and New Yorkers…” “Alikeness”? We have a word for that in English, Sarah–“similarity”.
You didn’t by chance have the same English teacher as Dubya, did you?
Palin is old news...geee! Move on!
Can you believe that someone actually wanted to put this zero a heartbeat away from the presidency? And there are some who still do?!!!
Good grief.
Sick of Palin. She's old news. NEXT.
she had "rally" here in omaha and the republicans said 7000 people showed up. the fire department and the police and the venue called it 4500. she got on TV and called it 7500 herself.
what a lying skank. shut up and stay home. who is raising your 5 kids while you are out and about?
obama had a rally in omaha and the venue was filled to capacity. 15000 and there were people lined up around the block who did not get in.
and i live in a red state!
Can we all say Narcissistic Personality Disorder and move on? There is nothing to see here, just your average personality defect. Keep it movin'.
As I wrote earlier, she is a total wack job, to paraphrase the McCain staff – but I do hope she is nominated by the GOP in 2012!
she claims the media (curic, fey) exploited her during the election.
Sarah, stop exploiting america and using the same media you critique to satisfy your need for attention.
Oh poor baby Sara! How does it feel to be lied about. I guess the same way Barack Obama our President Elect by a landslide must have felt when you accused him of being a terrorist and paling around with them. Too bad for you now. Shut your mouth and deal with it and stop acting like a middle school girl. Your old news............
I just love how the liberal talking points just keep going and going. You idiots keep telling yourself that you're better than everyone else then maybe someday you will realize that nobody is better than anyone else.
It is no one's business about hte Palin family and their children. Obama has children but nobody questioned him relentlessly about them.
Grow up.
Hey Sarah –
Andy Warhol called from Beyond....your 15 minutes are up.....
Somewhere in Alaska a village is no longer missing their idiot. Now please stay there, Palin!!!
Sarah, you wanted the spotlight and you got it. Deal with it!
Alaska you guys has a nut case on your hands, she need help. i feel sorry for you guys,if America is sick of her what do you think? Get a life woman The damage is done just go hide somewhere GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Indiana is Republican country, but we know a stinker when we see it. Please Sarah, your continued idiocy is hurting the party. Please go away.
Why is the media still giving this woman press time? Would someone please make her shut up??? If she truly cared about her son and truly wanted focus off of her, she'd let the whole subject drop and not give in to the media's pressure... Why can't she get that through her thick head? *sigh*
Anyone paying attention can see that sarah being trig's mother is the central core of her fraud. No aspect of the evidence holds up under scrutiny. Plus, the whole story about bristol's pregnancy was a misdirection ploy to get people off the trig track. It's no coincidence that not a single photo or reliable confirmation has been produced to show that bristol ever gave birth.
Note to Musicman and Joe the Schmoe: you both need to think more precisely. Obama has NEVER released a certified copy of his Birth Certificate. What he released was a computer generated abstract first created in 2007, and it lacks the key data needed to prove the actual situs of his birth. For instance, what was the hospital involved and who was the attending physician? You won't find that on the document he released, and without that data, his place of birth is entirely unknown.
Seems Sarah just wants to stay in the spotlight. I, for one (of many) would just as soon she stay up in Alaska and try not to trash it for the sake of money. I cringe to think what would become of our nation if she were in any type of power position. And for any hope of unity, which we are in such desperate need, I like others remember those rallies charging Obama with being a terrorist and seeming to feed on those screaming "Kill him" Really, Sarah, who's the antagonist? Certainly not the media who were merely reporting your shameful behavior and your uninformed answers to legitimate questions.
all I can say is thank-God Mcain lost and hopefully this moron will go away, its folks like her that create division among people unlike President elect Obama who has the ability to build bridges between people,,,hey wait Sarah theres an idea,,build a bridge to Russia go there and STAY there.
It amazes me how many people hate Sarah Palin, but continue to watch her on television and lean on everything that she says. Just change the channel. Then to add their stupidity, they take the time to make comments about her.
If you do not like her, why do you watch her and then make comments? Frankly, we do not care and we can do our own thinking. I say, you need to get a life and stop worring about Sarah.
Three words, a comma, a period and nothing more: "Shut up, please."
Governor Palin, with all due (snicker) respect, you should really just (snicker) concentrate on your job, and not worry about what someone's typing on the 'Net about you. If you want to prove them (snicker) wrong, then simply do your job. How (snicker) hard is that?
Seriously, though, I kind of thought you were a feminine version of Bush, but now I see I was wrong. You're definitely different. At least Bush didn't care about what his detractors thought of what he done one iota. You obviously do. Maybe you can (oh, God, I can't hold it in anymore) apply that to being a better politician! (Uncontrollably laughs)
What's an 'alikeness'?
Newflash Sarah Palin: NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOUR STUPID THEORIES ABOUT WHATEVER YOU ARE WHINING ABOUT....YOU LOST BECAUSE YOU ARE A LOSER. TAKE YOUR OWN ADVICE AND GET OVER IT.
Ja wrote, "I feel she should be recognized for what a great and inteligent person she is."
Ja, if Sarah Palin had been a great and 'intelligent' person, she would have been recognized for it. As it is, she is anything but great or intelligent. The woman can't even put a coherent sentence together! And I thought Bush was bad - Palin has him beat hands down.
Obama's birth certificate he released was photoshopped and it is NOT the origional, i still cant believe this country has a pres whose father is from Africa, I am beginning to think people have lost their way.
Oh James, James, just focus on the baby why don't you. This woman needs to shut the heck up and just go away! Who ever heard of her b4 that idiot John McCain called her? Don't she have a new grandson to baby sit while her underage daughter go drinking? JUST GO AWAY!
She will not be posted if people stop responding,duh.
For the sake of plain human decency, someone really needs to take Ms. Palin aside and explain to her that she has become a joke.
I truly believe she really bought into the neocon's con that she was a viable candidate for VP – it's called hubris. Dubya had it and you know how that turned out.
What's next: Will Joe-the-never-got-around-to-being-a-plumber try his hand at doctorin' and take out someone's liver bone on national tv?
Now, that's what I call news!
I can't believe there is even discussion about this woman having a prominent role going foward. Namecalling? Really?
I feel like I'm back in high school...
Sarah Palin just digs her political grave deeper every time she comments on the Trig rumors. She's obviously way too thin-skinned to hold a high office, and she looks seriously out of touch with the times when she conflates personal blogs with "the media." I imagine she's read a few blogs and thinks they're news from some sort of mainstream media outlet. What she's too thick to grasp is that her whining is just gonna make them egg her on even harder. The smart thing for her to do would be to ignore them; after all, they do not really merit a response, do they? Yet she's giving the rumors not just the dignity of a response, but days and days of intense attention. I think I've heard her talk more about these rumors than she did about the issues during her campaign!
If Trigg is your's where is the birth certificate or medical records? God knows Obama had to provide proof of every accusation that you and the republican party made against him. Grow up Palin. You created your own bed now lay in it.
Look who's calling somebody else pathetic!
Does anyone really care what she says.
She is old news.
why does the media keep bringing her up??? didn't everyone have enough of her during the election. i know i'm tired of turning the news on and listen to her talk about a whole bunch of nothing. talks on and on and never directly aswers a question....
Sarah - PLEASE GO AWAY! You lost the election. Very few care what you have to say! Give a rest already and just go away.
I agree as much as everyone else that she should disappear. But, don't you think a good way to start this process would be for all of you to refrain from commenting on this article? Traffic (and comments) on a site = popularity, which leads to more coverage.
Stop commenting/reading and they'll stop posting the stories.
GO AWAY!!!
GO AWAY!!!
GO AWAY!!!
GO AWAY!!!
GO AWAY!!!
Let her keep talking, maybe by 2012, everyone will be sick of her running her mouth and not have anything to do with her. Apparently, she is not as professional as she want someone to think.
Since she is so hot under the collar, go stand in the snow in Alaska, hopefully that will cool her off.
TEXAS SEE PALIN AS A BIG NUT BIG ONE CRAZY
Sounds like a old horror movie: "The Creature That Refused To Die".
Scarey stuff indeed...................YIKES !
I see that CNN has created another comics page – it's that hyperlink that takes you to Governor Pinhead's latest outrage; or, alternately, to "Joe the Reporter" coming to us from the front.
If Obama's birth certificate, religion, parish priest, or neighbors were fair game, then why not Trig's "real mom?" Pictures! Testimony! The nation demands proof! And were you wearing your flag pin on the day he was born? Inquiring minds want to know....
Goodness gracious is she a polotician or a high school girl.
PALIN in 2012!!!! Yo go girl! USA loves you and can't wait for the Democratic disaster to go away!
I find it amusing that Palin is complaining about unfair media coverage and blogger bias. No one was slammed and slandered as much as Obama the "muslin radical" by anonymous bloggers and emails. As for the legitimate media, Palin cannot hold Couric responsible for her own ignorant blunders. The country doesn't need someone they would like to have a beer with after soccer practice, it needs someone intelligent enough to lead. Sorry Palin, you don't fit the bill.
Isn't it ironic that she says 'you just have to let it go' but that's the last thing she's doing! Shut up Sara we don't care!
Seriously anytime I see ANOTHER article on her I consider stabbing myself in the eyes to avoid reading it.
Sarah, Just develop some thick skin so that you can run for 2012, and STOP complaining. You are just one dim wit lady, never the less, cute. Just wear your beauty crown, smile and shoot moose!
This nightmare just keeps coming back. She's told us the Democrats are against her, a portion of the Republican Party is against her, John McCain is against her, women are against her, the media is against her, and now the blogs are against her. Good grief woman, with everyone against you, what's your motive? It appears you're becoming more delusional and stupid with every interview.
I agree with her that bloggers really cross the line and many times show complete disregard and just plain ignorance but I gotta say..Palin is even worse then they are using lies,manipulation and one liners trying to stay in the spotlight. Go away Sarah and take the plumber with you!
why is this inbreed still in the news?
Please Sarah! You are just as guilty using blogs to advance your own backwoods political agenda.
After all, was not it not a “bored, anonymous, pathetic blogger" who started a blog called "Sarah Palin for VP."
We have serious issues to face in this country and abroad, why do you still give this has-been a soap box to shout her ignorance, same goes for the plumber. If you leave them alone they will shrivel up and go away.
It would be extremely difficult for any woman in a high profile position such as Governor Palin's to completely hide the fact that she's pregnant – especially after 32 weeks gestation. Since she is the governor of the state of Alaska, surely there are photographs available that would answer anyone's question of whether she was pregnant at a particular time. I've never known a pregnant woman who could effectively hide the fact for the entire nine months and especially not after having four children.
I understand that family circumstances at the time of young Trig's birth can and have given rise to questions regarding his maternity. Most people don't care who is the mother of the child but obviously a lot of people in Alaska believe they've been lied to.
Why is she still in the spotlight? Now she's just making a plain fool out of herself. The election is over Sarah. No one cares about Trig, Trip, Trag or whatever screwed up 4 letter name you give them. Geesh this lady is full of herself.
gosh for a person who claims the media abused her and told lies on her, she sure likes to..........well I think you know where I'm going with this!
As I said before, if you don't like media, quit talking to them. I think all this yelling and complaining she does is a farce. She's just trying to keep her name on the airways.
Stop adding comments to the news related to Palin. The media is publishing these stories because they get a lot of response.
Look at all the bored, pathetic, anonymous people who continue to protest that they don't want to see or hear anything more of Sarah Palin but who quite obviously read every lousy article.
Keep on talkin', Sarah, if for no other reason than to annoy all these morons, jealous females and pathetic she-males who continue to pour out their bile and contempt - unworthy to stand on the same continent with you, let alone criticize you.
We LOVE you, Sarah...MILLIONS of us.
This broad is like an annoying little chihuahua who won't let go of your pants leg.
Let me make this perfectly clear:
GO HOME &
SHUT YOUR HYPOCRITIC PIEHOLE
Someone, please give me a stick. I want to beat her senseless
If there's one person who knows about lies, it's Palin.
i can only hope that she dosen't run in 4yrs. she annoying and will put the party back 50yrs. but heres a prediction she will probably run in 4yrs. and the religous wing of the party will have their vote cut in have between her and old huck, and we'll finally do what we should have done the first time around and run Romney against Obama.
Guys, Please comment on the issue about some bloggers writing about her kids which is relevant to about post . if you dont like her thats fine but pulling any one's kids is not fair game. what will you do if some one says that you are not mother of your kid.?
Caribou Barbie, please GO AWAY and stop having news conferences ! WE DO NOT CARE WHAT YOU SAY ANYMORE....
CNN: WHY do you continue to report on this AIRHEAD ???
The American Voters have spoken – Palin LOST !!!
The mean media-They try to trick people so much with such difficult questions like what news media do you read?
Time
Life
NY Times
Washington Post etc.
Moose Hunters Weekly
How to de-capitate a turkey while giving an interview on TV?
...and the list goes on.
At least bloggers write–she reads–we have now established that in her intellect.
I am still unsure about the proximity of Alaska and Russia issue.
She landed once in Ireland to refuel a plane doesn't that qualify her as Irish Leprechan (sp)!!!
These Left leaning narrow minded bloggers who sit in there basements putting all this garbage on line And you left leaning liberals eat it all up.
I saw that one of them wrote that Alaska was the most corrupt state.
What a laugh just look at Illinois where our next president came from
That all I have to say.
Sarah is an excellent example of the old adage that an empty tin can makes the most noise. Say "Bye bye", Sarah.
Thank goodness the old warden is gone, his buddies arent taking over, and that you have a real vice president with more important things on his mind than "bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie".
Sara you have to quit picking on these "feelings people" We all know that they care more than the rest of us!They seem to enjoy name calling,childish games etc.
Maybe she should call a press conference and invite Joe the Plumber, uh sorry, Joe the War Correspondent to cover it. Then she'll get that positive press she's so desperate for.
PALIN be thankful that you got recognized. There are many qualified BARBIES availible to take your place. TAKE CARE of your babies and ALASKA... God will place you where you need to be. SLIPPING INTO DARKNESS... Yes that's YOU !!!!!!!!
I think your comments are interesting and insightful and I agree with much of what has been written here, however, please check your grammar before you post- we lose the battle when we say, "your" instead of you're for you are.
The village idiot from wasilla needs to start governing instead of whining about the past. I hope the people of Alaska see their governor as someone who is using her office to pursue her own personal agenda and should vote her out. Shut up and govern your state lady!!!!
Palin seems to be demonstrating she does not have the temperament
to be a US president. The need to blame the press for her shaky statements and to blame the Campaign for her limited power is a way of giving away whatever power she has.
Goodbye Sarah!
I love when Palin gives interviews because she never cease to amaze me with her staggering ignorance.
Steve January 13th, 2009 12:30 pm ET
Pathetic bloggers who lie?
What about her accusations on the campaign trail that Obama palled around with terrorists?
For your information, Steve, Palin was accurate. This information was printed in some of the biased liberal rags as well:
Both Obama and Ayers were members of the board of an anti-poverty group, the Woods Fund of Chicago, between 1999 and 2002. In addition, Ayers contributed $200 to Obama's re-election fund to the Illinois State Senate in April 2001, as reported here. They lived within a few blocks of each other in the trendy Hyde Park section of Chicago, and moved in the same liberal-progressive circles.
Now tell me, if Obama was on a board for that many years with a guy who openly admitted that his terrorist group "didn't bomb enough" US targets, why didn't the Great One do something about it? Where are the lies that you speak of? This is public record information...not something made up like you liberals want to buy into.
Sarah, pathetic politicianS who lie should be your target. Look out! There's one in your mirror!
Hmmm, if your home town paper , who will be most sympathetic to you is calling about this rumor and they can't get a straight forward, coherent yes or no, it's the bloggers fault? Talk about a victim mentality. See what happens when you lie Miss Sarah,
people are less likely to believe you when you are telling the truth.
How long is this post election depression going to last? CNN lets help Miss Sarah by not reporting on her rants. One would think she was the Presidential candidate. John McCain has gone underground its time she does too.
the Russia thing was not mocked because it is fact. it was mocked because you actually had the audacity to use that as foreign policy experience you idiot!
Alikeness?
How much is this woman paying to try to keep her name alive? You'd think she'd at least until some of the inauguration hullaboo calms down before she tries to rebuild her image. She needs new advisors, she's coming across as really pathetic now.
Gosh what a whiner – move on – get back to work taking care of Alaska. Wait – she did take time to support the aerial killing of more Alaskan wolves and the killing of their pups. For anyone that thinks this is a sweet caring person, you may want to take another look at her. BTW has this woman ever made one intelligent comment or evaluation of any world situation, or does she just babble?
I don't know how to spell a scream!! Does she not know she's a joke? Will she never fade away? Perhaps the media can start ignoring her and she'll get the message. WE DON'T CARE WHAT YOU THINK?????
I actually feel sorry for her. This woman is not even smart enough to realize she is not smart. However, I think her recent comments tend to demonstrate that she has a vindictive streak and was very capable of firing a trooper because of a grudge.
Unfortunately, in this and age, Sarah is just the William Hung of politics. It was kind of funny for 15 minutes. Those 15 minutes have been up for over 2 months now. Move along.
I'm sorry, but this made me laugh. Perhaps she failed to see the irony of one of the late rallying cries of her supporters being turned on her...
Just curious why a woman in her position would worry about what anonymous bloggers think or say? It just goes to show you that you can take the girl out of the trailer park, but you can't take the trailer park out of the girl.
I'm not a fan of hers nor did i vote for her ticket, but to drag her children into the campaign is far past rediculous...It is pathetic. Its one thing to challenge her personal ideologies, it is quite another to drag her CHILDREN into it. It comes from a dark place inside of losers that feel powerful and hide behind their computers and use shock tactics. Don't be mad at her because your mother didn't hold you enough when you were a child and take it out on her...or maybe she held you too much? Losers
Sarah 'poor loser' Palin....I'm sick of looking at your blank face and listening to your empty words. Since you lost in the November '08 election, all you've done is blame everyone else for your failures and faults. And funny you should be giving interviews with the press, since these are the people that you are constantly getting down on. Do yourself and the rest of us a favor....please go back to your Alaskan bear den and stay away from the media, which you so hate.
the governor or CEO (*cough, cough**) of Alaska – Painlin did not share the Anchorage Daily News email with her press staff because she is using her personal email for govts. business!!!
what a dimwit!!!
YOU CANT BE A "CEO" OF A STATE! ITS NOT A BUSINESS!!!!
CNN.... hasn't this gone on long enough? 80% of this country doesn't care what this under-educated governor has to say. And for the rest of the country, it looks like you're just mocking her by reprinting her mangling of the English language. ("Alikeness"??? Come on, now)
Do everyone a favor and spend your time covering more important people.
Maybe if you all would just ignore it and stop talking about it, there wouldn't be anything to report on and it would go away.
After 4 years of Barack Obama, Governor Palin may not look so bad in 2012.
As far as baby goes we know he is yours, you are the only mother who would risk you Childs life by flying back to Alaska to have him. You know that the hospitals in Texas, they do have real children’s hospitals down their and are far better to deal with medical conditions than Alaska hospitals. As far as the media is concerned if their was a free ride given you got it, It was not the media that gave bad interviews it was you. Have you taken the time to watch your self, you need to. The media should have and if they had had time I am sure they would have, to look at what you did as mayor and what was going on during your watch. Rape kits. They should have looked at your friends who are members of the API. It was you who talked about paling around with terrorist, the founder of the API party was killed in a plastic explosive deal gone wrong.
As far as your family is concerned it is no model family and that’s ok, but you should not talk about family values because you haven’t been able to make it happen in your family. So it is rude to talk about it to other families. And are you so dumb as to believe McCain thought you were a good choice, you were picked by oil companies if you are out of Alaska you can no longer tax or decide who get to build a gas line. As far as the media making you look bad you made your self look bad and Alaska.
takes a Liar to ......
Her ambition is writing checks her intellect can't cash
someone needs to educate this woman because whether we like it or not there is a puncher's chance she could be the 45th president if you game where the primaries will be, her ability to raise money and the one thing this election proved no matter who is running if the economy is bad and you are in power you get fired
SHUT UP Ice Princes and concentrate on those small town values and get you kid to graduate high school and get her daughter's potential in laws out of Jail.
I am truly sick of this woman. Blame everyone else, except yourself. True Right Wing nutcase. The facts are there look it up; the media asked you simple questions and you couldn't answer them intelligently. GO AWAY!! This country has enough problems. Instead of doing interviews; take care of the State of Alaska.
I gave her enough credit to ignore all the blogs and the like... She's just going after anything that will keep her in the news.
She'd make a great Looney Tunes character.
Why don't you just go away .
Just like Anne Coulter. A political bimbo.
Some of you Democrats make me sick with your liberal attacks on this woman. Our guy WON, leave it alone and stop being judgemental.
Most politicians know that people are idiots. Staging a high profile fight against them is counterproductive to larger goal.
Sarah Palin needs to disappear for awhile. If she does maybe the public will forget what an idiot she is. Sarah Palin is trying to do damage control . It's too late. I saw her mini documentary/interview and she was blasting the media and SNL. She even went as far to make a big deal about the skit she did. I remember her saying she had fun and everyone was nice! SNL only took what she said and made fun of it! She wanted to blast Katie Couric for asking simple questions. Most candidates running for office read at least three papers to know what's going on. She could have even mentioned her local paper.She needs to kick her own self for being such and idiot!
Anytime you run for public office your background and life better be clean. If not, you better be ready! Everyone knows they are going to expose everything.
Sarah and her buddy Joe the Plumber need to go away!!!!!
The RNC created a monster.
It's amazing to hear the things that comes out of the mouth of one of the biggest hypocrites.
JA–
One puts names in a hat for a random drawing. One puts one's hat in the ring to run for office.
I, for one, hope Ms. Palin keeps trying. She is so clearly unqualified–intellectually AND morally–that she will draw the considerable "kook vote" away from serious Republican contenders.
Sarah, you do realize that the pathetic bloggers are also voters don't you? Calling the citizens you wish to govern pathetic liars just isn't cool honey.
Does Sarah Palin for a moment think she might be the problem? She, more than anyone, caused the GOP to lose the last election, though we certainly can't count out George Bush, the worst President ever
I believe the issue with the comment on the ability to see Russia from Alaska, Gov. Palin, was the fact that it was taken in-context, not out of. You brought that up in the context of a question regarding your foreign policy experience, or lack thereof. That is what was mocked. Your in-context statement.
She's desperate to remain in the very spotlight she so frequently criticizes. See ya'!
The only thing boring and pathetic is Sarah Palin.
I feel very sorry for this poor woman. She just doesn't have the common sense to walk away from a situation that is over and done with. Instead, she continues to re-live it, apparently on a continual basis, making herself miserable in the process. And then she blames everyone but herself for all of her inner turmoil. Sarah, LET IT GO...
What's next on your agenda of slam and hate Palin – people who wear black or maybe kids that listen to ipods or people who watch YouTube? You really need to get a life. Isn't there more urgent Alaska business to take care of then talking to reporters every day?
TRUTH HURTS!!!!
And if you bloggers don't like her – DON'T COMMENT – simple as that!!! But obviously you want someone to trash and it is all because of the green eyed monster – JEALOUSY!!!! LOL – LOL!!!!!!!
How long are we going to be subjected to the Palin's quote of the day ? Meanwhile people die in Gaza in general indifference ,,,
She will do anything to keep her name in the news. Instead of complaining about this how about coming up with ideas to help.
Oh wait. You have to have the brain power to come up with ideas.
i am sure she will find other ways to keep her name in the news.
This woman is a perfect example of what has gone wrong with the GOP. She is out of touch with reality.
Folks, let it go. If all of you were as smart as you claim, you would do a search for the transcripts to the interview about Foreign Policy. When you read the entire transcript you will see that the comment about seeing Russia from Alaska was only a sentence utilized in a 2 paragraph answer to a question on Foreign Policy. Do your homework. If you had done your homework you might not have supported Obama and Biden. So before you start throwing stones, look in the mirror and see what is looking back at you. I believe most of you are just jealous of a female politician who has a college education, and doesn't appear to have slept her way into office.
Wow interesting update. Looks like she was caught in yet another lie.
How anyone could support this woman at all is completely beyond me.
Sarah if you are so conservative as you call yourself,then why are you encouraging Bristol and Levi to give the baby picture to the highest bidder? the answer is --- you are a money seeker. Be careful in Alaska with the people's money.They are watching at you.
I love it that she's attacking people who ask very reasonable questions. I love that she's so dumb and I especially love that she's a Republican. She symbolizes all the reasons I despise the Republican party. Anyone who uses Bronze Age thinking to make decisions scares me to death.
My vow: I will not read any more articles regarding Sarah Palin. The best way to make her go away is to stop reacting.
Sarah your 15 minutes are over. You were a lot better off just keeping your mouth shut and letting people think you were crazy. Instead you opened it and proved to people that you are.
Business must be slow in Alaska if the governor has so much time to give interviews concerning non-state issues.
This woman just keeps trying to focus the spotlight on herself for some strange reason. If I were as dumb and unprofessional as she appears to be, I wouldn't want any media coverage. It would be to her advantage to go hide somewhere and hope the media forgot about her. (While she's hiding, maybe she could learn to actually speak correct English??)
I notice the McCain campaign has never come to her defense on ANY thing since the election was over. Maybe there's a reason for that???
And BTW, Sarah, did you ever return the $150K worth of clothes??? No, I didn't think so.
really nice. this woman sounds real mature and definitely ready to be Commander in Chief
She is on pathetic woman.She needs to crawl back in her iglo and stay there period.
Oh so it's the big bad media again, the media is the new communism. Same old Republican just attach everything you don't understand or like instead of the real problems of this country...maybe that's the problem the Republican's are the real problem and just don't realize it.
With our economy in crisis, wars in Iraq and Afghanistan at turning points, a third conflict (by proxy) in Gaza, her favorite campaign issue of energy a top concern, and her own family experience giving her the opportunity to speak on issues of disabled children and unplanned pregnancy, all Palin is doing is TALKING ABOUT HERSELF ALL THE TIME. At this rate she will never be taken seriously for higher office.
Whether she's truly nuts or just obsessed with chasing the windmills of who-cares nutcase bloggers, Steve's post below is dead on - she should take her own advice and let things go. She's only perpetuating a vicious cycle by making personal attacks while casting herself as a victim.

Sarah Palin in 2012
You go girl....
LAWD!!!! This woman is really hurt!!!! I was hoping with a New Year she was just fade away in the wood work. I guess the termites set her free. I know if somebody will help me go to Alaska and pack her up maybe she can live in Russia until 2018, geez this woman is sicken. CNN can't yall just turn her off already!!!!
I liked her when she ran with McCain but she is old news now. have a nice day Sarah. We have to worry about NoBama taking office next week and see him screw America up even more than the Bush administration did. See ya!
Governor Palin,
One thing you need to understand, as a poised and polished politician, is that you can't take a lot of what is said about you or your family serious. Why at this juncture are you wasting your time commenting on all that has been said about you? It is not going to change the outcome of the election, and or unfortuately, what the majority of people think about you. Besides, you are the Governor of Alaska; don't you have better things to do?
Pay attention to your counterparts, and learn to "let it go sister." It's is over. Drop it!
GO AWAY!!!! HOW DUMB ARE YOU? DOESN'T ALL THIS GET THROUGH YOUR THICK HEAD. YOU ARE A FAILURE. WE KNOW WHAT YOU AND YOUR ADVISORS ARE TRYING TO DO. START EARLY AND BLAME THE MEDIA SO THAT IN 2012 YOU CAN SAY MEDIA WAS NEVER FAIR TO ME.
ACTUALLY I WANT YOU TO BE THE NOMINEE FOR THE GOP IN 2012. OBAMA WILL NOT HAVE TO CAMPAIGN AT ALL AND SWEEP ALL STATES.
SO STOP LOOKING LIKE A PATHETIC LADY WITH ALL YOUR STUPID COMMENTS. JUST STAY HOME AND EAT MOOSE BURGER.
Gary, if you're going to call someone an idiot, at least use correct English.
You may be able to see Russia from Alaska, Sarah Palin, but that does not mean you are ready to deal with the Russian government if necessary!
The media really needs to start ignoring this woman. It was all very amusing at first, but it really isn't anymore. Isn't it bad enough that she'll probably be trying to run for president in 2012 and we'll have to hear more about her then? I think we deserve a break!
How you know Sarah Palin is lying...her lips are moving.
Stop putting a microphone in front of this woman. Seriously.
DOWN WITH PALIN!!!! She's digging her grave deeper and deeper and doesn't even know it.
Sarah:
I really hope you are the Republican nominee in 2012. Maybe Joe the Plumber can be your running mate. That would be a dream ticket.
Signed:
An Obama Supporter
Just GO AWAY TODAY!!!!!
WHO CARES??? Go back to your moose and let the rest of us alone
Why does anyone care about Sarah Palin or her kids? Oh wait, nobody does. She needs to go on a huntin' trip and not come back. Please spare us having to read anything more about this attention grubbing backwoods moron. Thanks John McCain, you really outdid yourself this time. Quite the legacy you are leaving.
What shots could sarah have called???
FYI ((((Sarah)))0 you were NOT on the top of the ticket! It was john McCains campaign...not yours....
When you were asked to join the ticket,you had no more power to 'demand" anything than you are now. You're a dummy,but even YOU know the powers that ran McCains camp wasn't going to entertain any suggestion or idea's you had. Although I wish they had, LOL!LOL! Your stupidity was hilarious!!!!
They knew you were dumb...your selection was an attempt to get the 18 million Hillary Clinton supporters....which we all know now that YOU did not do.
Please just STFU....you time (such as it was) is OVER!
The only pathetic thing is Sarah herself. I would have loved to see her "call the shots", as it would have shown her glaring stupidity even more clearly. Say goodnight Sarah.
John McCain will have to live out the rest of his years knowing that in his desperation to win the Presidency he unleashed this upon the world. She's a walking talking lowest-common-denominator machine, and as long as their are people ignorant enough to follow her and resentful enough to think she represents them, she will have a political career.
Oh Sarah, go away already. No one cares...you are a whole bucket full of C-R-A-Z-Y!
ja-
If she was so "moral" she would have thought twice about the libelous claims she made against her running mate. Moral and christian are not equivalent. I am sick to death of religion being any kind of credible platform for politicians to fun on considering the necessity of the job being that they govern for ALL PEOPLE including non-christians in the United States. The real breath of fresh air is to have a thoughtful, considerate, intelligent leader. "God bless" that and remember that morals transgress religious affiliation and that even agnostics have morals.
Sarah Palin – the Rise of the Fourth Reich.
The bloggers won't have anything to write about now since we'll be living in a perfect world with unicorns and gold for everyone now that the Savior has been annointed.
She never goes away...she is like a tape that constantly rewinds and replays itself over, and over, annnnnd ovvvverr AND OVER....
I love how she contradicts herself. Idiot. If she says you have to GET OVER IT, then why in the world is she STILL running her mouth about it? What's done is done! GET OVER IT.
She really needs to practice what she preaches! If she can figure out how!
Happily. If you read these blogs you will discover that the negatives outweigh the positive comments on a scale of about twenty to one This augers well for the future. God Bless the Democrats and roll on 2012
"Pathetic Bloggers who lie?" Well, she is just a pathetic unqualified VP candidate who is a pathological liar herself.
I watched some of Hillary today, navigating tough questions with intelligence and studied knowledge. Whether you agree with her or not, the point is... can you imagine Palin in the same situation? Palin was running for a HIGHER office than SOS and she can't even answer the qustion 'What newspapers do you read?' And she outright LIED about being "cleared" by a bipartisan ethics investigation (Troopergate). That woman is delusional and I just pray she keeps it up until everyone sees through her distorted, self important, everyone-is-wrong-but-me BS.
I am not just some liberal bashing her, but with every utterance from her mouth I question this woman's maturity, intelligence, and grasp of the global scope.
We have major global problems to resolve and she keeps harping about tiny aspects of the campaign and the media. Perhaps the accusations of megalomania are more accurate than I would have thought.
Sarah doesn't know how to lose an election with grace.
Hey Sarah,
seems that you know an awful lot about bored, anonymous, pathetic liars. You know, you have really become a laughing stock and it's sad to see you try and re-write recent history. Someday soon i'm hoping that you'll just go away like a good little witch.
The article also suggests she regrets not calling more of the shots, so to speak, once she got on the ticket.
That really would have been a good idea – the suspense would have ended much sooner. She probably would have had more silly press conferences like this one.
Everyone in American knows this woman is done except for CNN. The daily headline of her complaining about something is getting old.
Sarah, darling, when are you going to learn that you are just playing into the hands of the media with each new invective you spew? Simply say "thanks, but no thanks" (like you did with that Bridge to Nowhere, wink, wink) and hang up the phone. Also, you'll want the media to be your friend in 2012; therefore, I would advise against trashing them at every opportunity.
Sarah could answer the question about who the mother of Trig is by releasing her medical records, or just the ones around the time of Trig's birth. Something Sarah has yet to do.
Steve... MEDIA RELATIONS? are you kidding? Sarah got SLAMMED for everything she said or didn't say. She and her family were demeaned , email hacked and made fun of. I have never witnessed anything like this attack in my 50 + years. Disgraceful.
I just wish CNN and the other media outlets would read these comments and realize that NO ONE is interested in whatever Sarah Palin has to say...
Do we collectively have to turn off the TVs and stop reading your on line publications before you get the message?
Silliness no longer has much tolerance in America... George Bush has surely cured us of that ....
Oh...you mean like she lied about firing the Public Safety Commissioner for not firing her brother-in-law? Well, if anyone could recognize lying it would be her...she must be right
What an absolute loof! If it wasn't for McCain choosing her as his running mate, I would have voted for him.
Coulda, shoulda, woulda gets you no where now. Can you imagine her as our President and Commander in Cheif? If you don't have a set of nuts in teh beginning, you're not gonna get them at all.
This woman needs to take a page from the Obama play book. If you screw up, you move past the mess as soon as possible. Admit the mistake, ignore it and make it a non-issue; do anything and then stop talking about it. Don't keep replaying it over and over again. That's politics 101, even I know that. She keeps trying to argue this issue about 'I can see russia from my house'..... blah blah blah the more clueless she looks. Every politician gets snipets of their words grabbed on by the media, fair or not. The difference is, if you are smart, you move past it real fast. The more I hear her post-election interviews, the more I think she will have no chance becoming the next GOP candidate. Hell, at this rate she may not even make it through her next governor race.
Isn't it funny how liberal whiners complain about somebody else's whining! All I ever heard from the press was that Obama's family was off limits for any comments or criticism. Apparently that was not the same for Palin. I don't blame her for being annoyed. Also....a word to some of the women here: Nobody is saying that you had some obligation to support this woman just because she's a woman...BUT...why does it seem that some of you go out of your way to prove it by trashing this woman? Man, some of you women are nasty. You won't be happy till you rip out her uterus. Let's all be honest here. If Sarah Palin looked more like Helen Thomas, you would think she was a freakin' genius!
Please go do your job. If you really intend on pursuing politics on a national scale again, what you do right now is giong to tremendously effect those odds. As far as I can see your obsession with the public and medias commentary will render that impossible. Please use your head, and lead well – but stay out of the press with articles like these, or your career will end itself.
Why is she giving legitimacy to these rumors? Let her ask John Ewards about this! Imagine her being U.S. President or VP and the world writes about rumors. Will she start waging war about these? Serious lack of judgment and maturity. Please go away..
This is soooo September 2008. Welcome to the New Year, Sarah and CNN!
Ms. Palin. Keep quiet. I do not agree with the myths (Trigs real mother) but I am fascinated that you continue to show your lack of knowledge and depth. I beg you. Concentrate on the work of serving as Governor of Alaska and take care of your family. Your endless desire to play victim and stay in the news is not helping you…at all.
I do wish you the best.
........and this is the woman that wanted to be VP of the USA, and some people really, really wanted her to be also. Americans consider yourselves lucky she is back in Alaska and not representing your country in the world.
Palin is dangerous and yet still a joke, but you CNN need to stop giving her so much coverage. Granted, she's fair game and juicy fodder, but she's irritating, and even her quoted words in print grates on the nerves like chalk on a blackboard.
Shame on you John McCain for inflicting this woman on the human race.
Please, please go away! Why don't you focus on the problems of your state, and not your own state of affairs. You are the people of Alaska's servant. Serve and SHUT UP!!!!
Palin shows her true colors when she delivers one of her devisive, polarizing and accusatory speeches full of falsehoods and half-truths. She seems so full of herself when she incites the dittoheads who hang on her every word. Our country has suffered through enough of "your with us or against us" leadership. Her brand of politicing continues to take us down that road and will not lead to healing and trust in leadership. Credibility has taken a back seat to deception. We deserve better.
Chris,
yawn.............
Yeah, too bad bloggers can't be honest like she is! I really don't think there's any doubt who is truly pathetic ... she can be seen above. Eat me Sarah!
At least those poor teenagers won't have to get married now that Sarah lost the election.
PARTY ON!!
When people make fun of "you can see Russia from Alaska" they are taking it very much IN context, the context that you claimed SP. That's what makes it funny. YOU claimed it gave you experience in the international scene. If you had just said it as a fact, it wouldn't be funny.
If you don't get why it is funny, then I'm laughing again. If you had been elected... I'd be crying of course.
Remember when Al Gore lost. And he went away for a while? I'm thinking Gov. Palin should follow that model. She just seems to be dying to have someone hear about her sour grapes. On top of that, it seems she's building an "anti-media" platform for future campaigns.
Whimpy wacky Palin, we wish you'd quit your wailin'
Now we're all a copin', and you are still a mopin'
Too bad we still can hear ya, hollerin' from Wasilla
The crap you try to sell, we wish you'd go to HELL!
Since I can see the moon, I must be qualified to be an Astronaut.
SHE STILL SEES HERSELF IN THAT TIARA...IF YOU BELIEVE IT, SHE'S THE MOST MISUNDERSTOOD PERSON SINCE HAMLET...
As opposed to boring, know-nothing, pathetic governors who lie.
Your 15 minutes were up months ago BI*TCH!
Could this woman please hop on that bridge to nowhere already and NEVER COME BACK? Go away. Now.
Ok, I have bit my lip more times than I can count when I read these blogs, these LIBERAL blogs I should say. But today I have to speak up. All your comments are spoken like true Democrats. And I am quite sure you all still think Clinton was gods gift to the White House too. Do you think the liberal media would have asked Obama or Hillary or JFK some of the questions they threw at Palin? Doubtful, very doubtful. They were out to get her from day one. I give her a standing ovation for handling it the way she did. On a side note, it is funny how quickly you people forget that congress was and still is controlled by the Democrates. The situation we are in now was NOT one mans fault. Bush was a good president and he kept us safe!
Anchorage Daily News – She is even pissing off her own town paper. What she fell to realize is the media can be your friend if you let them.
For gods sake Palin go home woman! you had your moment and now it is over so stop trying to get attention you diva!
You wanna see some pathetic bloggers, look no further than the CNN Political Ticker, Sarah. Most of the people on here suck at life.
Sara Palin is the one who is bored and pathetic! She wasn't bright enough to answer simple questions from the press, but now she is Miss high and mighty who seems to have daily press conferences and blames the republican party and their handlers for her now "boring" life. Get over yourself Sara. You lost your chance to be the vice president (president in waiting) and now all you can do is whine and critisize everything and everybody who ever said anything bad about you. Grow up and get on with your life! You're just not that interesting!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree with ja. Sarah is a breath of fresh air.
Leave her alone because you all are a bunch of
jerks critizing her.
DebM, Allentown, PA said it all for me.
We are moving to a new level of consciousness in this country. Palin will continue to be popular with a minority of people that believe in tribalism and their tribe is the white tribe. Fortunately tribalism is going out of style.
what about pathetic former vp candidates who just don't know when to shut up?!?
She can kiss her wishes for public office in 2012 or later goodbye. She may hold office in Alaska but never again in the United States. She has pissed off the media and pissed off bloggers – a large amount of people who greatly affect the thinking of even more. And Sarah, you should know be so surprised with what journalism is doing to you, after all, and after five schools, you yourself have a degree in journalism. Or do you not remember getting the degree, much like the fact that you never showed a stomach worthy of a nine month pregnancy last year to even constitute having a child. That baby is NOT yours. Until an official birth certificate is released, Trig is your daughter's.
She's right. Pathetic bloggers that lie were rampant during the last election. It was disgraceful that the media ran with stories started by malicious, untruthful bloggers. Those lies were reported as truth.
She's just pathetic. Does her husband ignore her at home that she needs all this attention? NO ONE CARES ANYMORE!!!!
I'd tap that....
Gov Palin: Enough already!
Sarah please go away let's heal our nation. Stop acting like a spoiled child. We have bigger issues to deal with.
If it wouldn't have been for a blogger Palin would never have been "discovered."
Governor Palin, use the little bit of brain that you have and shut up. We don't want to know anything about your thoughts.
Please get this woman off the news. You're only encouraging her to seek the limelight and drawing out this pathetic attempt to make a name for herself in politics. My cats are smarter than this woman. Maybe they should run for politcal office.
you libs are very revealing at times. It is eventually what will do you in.
She somehow missed the memo that she lost. GO AWAY!!!
It takes a pathetic liar to know one. But hey, if the rest of the Republicans are as dumb as you, you'll get another shot...and this time you'll be leading the ticket. Of course, you'll also lead them deeper into irreleavency which makes many of us enlightened people very very happy.
Miss Palin,
Have you figured it out yet these bloggers are merely pulling your strings and having a great time at it? Probably not.
By the way your whole political campaign has been a lie not to mention completely hypocritical.
My advice is just to shut up and disappear from history.
How long must we listen to this moron ramble, She is too stupid to know how dumb she is. " I shoulda told Mccain/s advisors I was gonna call some shots" PLEASE, you couldn't call your momma
LOL – Painful's all butt hurt that the media 'lied' ... project much, Painful?
Another resounding LOL – She still doesn't get she's got the mental capacity of an amoeba. Actually, an amoeba has more brain power than she does!
Bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers, huh, Sarah? How about this – you come on this comment board and ask me for my information. I will give you my name, address, telephone number and e-mail. Then we can discuss who is truly a liar and who is truly pathetic.
I am convenicenc that Trig is not her baby that way she is trying so hard to cover it up.
Palin: what a sad excuse for a human being. It is really disturbing that in the XXI century the GOP picked as their vice-presidential candidate somebody who is actually dumber than Bush. Please, lady, for the sake of humanity, never ever leave Alaska. Stay there with your Billy Bob and the little Billy Bobs, and never come out. Thank God she is nothing more than a disturbing footnote in our nation's history...
If she were still a journalist she would ask the dumbest questions known to man.
i cant believe all u bloggers who cannot get enough of her. leave her alone and take a good long look at whai is about 2 enter the whitehouse now
Welcome to the internet.
Sarah has given up all hope of being a politician (thank you!). She is just now ranting on like a B or C level has been celeb. Sarah, make yourself useful and go on "are you smarter than a 5th grader" or even "Brett Michaels>" There you'll get all the attention you want!
It's scary to think she is the future of the Republican Party; scary for the Republicans!!
Sarah Palin is in the wrong field...she could put Tina Fey out of business. She is the best comedian that has come out in the last decade that I know of. Keep it up sweetie...you are making the World smile everyday!
McCain's campain staff were inexperienced with handling a strong woman with a brain. Palin was inexperienced with big goverment spin. I love you Sarah. And I will vote for you in 2012.
I think Sarah Palin is right on this matter.
Attack her on her views ( as she said herself) ,but don't smear or spread lies about the kids.
A newspaper has to deal with political issues ,but not anonymous with gossip of bloggers.
More Sarah bashing, get a life people.
I think Obama needs to institute and IQ policy; an intelligence test for anyone running for president or vice president. That way morons like Palin and W would automatically be disqualified.
14 minutes 57 seconds, 14:58, 14:59......
Please make this fruitcake go away
Shawn, you say you're sure she (Palin) is smart lady... based on what? I mean... can you give me one single example of when she exhibited any evidence of intelligence? It's not only that she's NOT smart, it's that she's a grudge-holding, finger pointing, angry woman. BEGONE already!!!
Enough already – I'm sick of hearing from her. Her IQ drops every time she opens her mouth to whine/complain/give an interview. Geez, she has set women back 50 years and I don't appreciate it. Just drift back off into obscurity, darlin...
Jeannie–There are NO "ridiculous comment[s] or charge[s] made about her" any more. The press would forget her, ignore her if she could just SHUT HER PIEHOLE. She obviously doesn't want to be remembered as a pathetic loser from the last election. Anything that is written about her from now on is being brought on by . . . her. She is no longer newsworthy–as you appear to be her "friend" please tell her that.
Funny to see the limited number of comments. People really don't care about her anymore. Her 15 minutes are up! Yay!
I am begging you...Gov. Palin...stop feeding the media. We are tired of all this. Just SHUT UP!
Go away!! Its over.
What is the possible reason that Sarah Palin refuses to go away? This is one sad individual, and could have been a heart beat away from the Presidency. Now, in retrospect, how scarry is that.
I hope the Republicans KEEP HER AROUND! The left WILL NEVER LOSE AGAIN!
ST, No I will tear up. Seems like the US has become the largest group of stupid people in the world. What are you going to do when Obama say's no comment and we have another attack on our soil.
The pit bull in lipstick is whining about being roughed up?
Who did she call Socialist after the Republicans' largest government cash redistribution program in history?
"Palling around with Terrorists?"
She is a sociopathic liar.
You have to love how Palin complains about the press, untruths, etc. Yet she was, and is, nothing more than a divisive hate monger, spreading lies and untruths about anyone, or any group, that does not agree with her or her goals.
It's not even "people who are smart" – it is anyone with beyond an 8th grade education who can see that she is an imbecile.
think Sarah Palin is the only breath of fresh, honest, and moral air that there is on the political front today and instead of hammering her all the time, I feel she should be recognized for what a great and inteligent person she is. It is my hope that she will consider letting her name be placed in the hat for the presidency in 2012. By then, WE WILL REALLY BE NEEDING A BREATH OF FRESH AIR. God bless you Sarah, keep up the fight. There are a lot of us with you.
Ja You don't go out much do you? If so you can't smell sorry but fart from Mccain is NOT a breath of fresh air.
It is about time she fights back! All she did was run for office and put up a good fight. While I agree that she was not quite prepared to become VP, she doesn't deserves all of the hate from media and you posters. ............ “bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie.” funny it sounds like she was refering to the posters here at CNN!
Huckabee/Palin 2012 "The Real Change"
in other words palin, according to you bloggers are poor pathetic anonymous liers, well we are also voters and that is why you lost, you have such a low opinion of people who dosen't think just like you, talk about pathetic.
It's a shame she doesnt realize her true value is only her pretty face. Maybe she will join Bristol up on the pole after she's out of office. If we're lucky maybe she'll get a reality show or even better maybe Hefner will call with an offer!!
Palin meet out in the parking lot at 3....
Who cares? I wish she'd go away. Stop reporting on her. Let her go back to obscurity.
First, PE Obama is hosting dinners with Biden, Powell and McCain without the baby Sarah.(ouch, big time!!!!)
second, Joe The Plumber will have far more foreign affairs knowledge than you Sarah when he returns from Gaza…. whine, whine, whine…
I am extremely tired of seeing Palin's pathetic attempts to stay in the national media. The only silver lining is that Americans will grow tired of her posturing long, long before the next election cycle.
Many of you are SO FILLED WITH HATE for this woman, it's sickening!
I thought liberals in coffee shops, with lap tops were about tolerence?? Everyone demands gay rights, animal rights, this right, that right and EXPECTS others to respect them, but I say, look in the mirror. Look at the venom coming out of your mouths!
HYPOCRITS!!!
She is still in the news why????
People you know Jerry Springer is still on the air right , there are alternatives...
Although I did not support Palin as a VP candidate...my decision was based only on her positions on issues and lack of readiness to lead our country. Not on her hair style, family dynamics, or being from Alaska. I agree with her that she has been treated with contempt and a level of venom that is unprecedented. Being ridiculed because she is from Alaska, the attacks on her family and her daughter's pregnancy and the unfounded accusations about her son's parentage are indeed pathetic. As for the continued coverage in the media. The CNN article states that she is being ASKED BY VARIOUS MEDIA to grant interviews. Clearly these media outlets believe she is still news worthy.
So once again I implore the folks who post on the CNN Political Ticker board....can't we all raise the level of discourse to one that is respectful and constructive? The current level of vitriol is shameful and truly damaging to our collective future.
Her blather grows tiresome. Are there people who actually have her side? I mean, non-crazy people.
Is CNN intentionally posting comments with huge spelling and grammatical errors in order to display some kind of "meta-irony" in regards to the people bashing Palin? "LULZ SARZARH PULIN IS DUM!" – John from Kindergarten.
I'm no Sarah Palin fan, but some of you people have such a poor handle over the basic syntax of the English language that you may very well have a future in writing the speeches for her 2012 presidential bid.
She wishes she had told the McCain campaign advisors that she'd be callin' more of the shots? I'm positive they would have listened to her – yep, right.
She was put on the ticket to be the VP candidate – since when does a VP candidate inform the Presidential candidate that she'd be runnin' the show too? Poor poor deluded Sarah – she honesty thinks she is a factor anymore?
I could care less about who the mother of her baby is – statistics lean toward her being the actual mother with the 'age of mother/downs syndrome' factor but she needs to just z i p it up.
She did more harm in the campaign than anyone else and never once tried to quiet the crowds she incited.
Be gone Sarah.
Seriously... "T from New York" ... a liberal? Don't think so! Palin is responsible for her own failure.
Who even cares about Sarah Palin anymore?
Sarah Palin. The biggest example for what is wrong with this country. By polarizing her views, and solidifying the Right through her hate speech, she is going to bring about the final death blow to the GOP.
Keep it up Sarah!
But if you think you can get 300 million people to support you, without
1) Lying
2) Cheating
Then you are wrong!
Sarah, please go away...
On second thought, don't go. That will ensure Democratic majorities until the end of time.
Palin,
We Are Anonymous
We Are Legion
We Do Not Forgive
We Do Not Forget
Expect Us
What an arrogant woman!! Please, never ever come back to the lower 48. I can only imagine the depravity that would ensue should this woman ever get near the White House. She's no breath of fresh air. She's EXACTLY the same corrupt politician as most of them. And that's why you get hammered, Sarah. Beacause you act like you're different and you're not. You are a power hungry female dog. SHUT UP!!
For love of all things precious to mankind, can CNN please stop picking up on things this woman says! How is this of any importance to me? To the mortgage mess? To the credit crunch? To the lack of universal healthcare? My point incase it was missed is that SARAH PALIN IS OF NO IMPORTANCE. Now if CNN would simply stop making a point to care, she will get the point that WE DO NOT CARE ABOUT WHAT SHE SAYS – which is usually something nonsensical anyway!
Please CNN I beg you, help us in making this woman just fade! She is a pathetic sore looser who has in her shallow fantasy filled world that her words are of some importance to us. Let her go back to school and get a real degree and then maybe, just maybe she can have a better Katie Couric interview!!!
You're an insult to strong women everywhere, if you were to ever retain the high office of the presidency(God forbid), it would be a slap in the face of all the progress women have made in this country thus far.
She forgot to mention that there are agitated, well-known, pathetic bloggers on her side who also lie.
Its pretty obvious why CNN is giving Paling so much undeserved attention.
First, We all know the liberal bias of CNN. Then if Palin does by some chance get the Republican nomination in 2012, its pretty obvious how badly she will go down in flames, something like Mondale in 1984. So, CNN is just giving her all this attention to see the Republicans nominate her (I truly hope no one can be that stupid) in 2012.
So, to all Liberals out there, keep hoping that Palin keeps getting all this attention. To Conservatives: lets try to bury her as fast, deep and far away as possible.
Will woman go away already! I thought that she had so much work to do in the grand old state of Alaska. Huumm, looks like there's not much to really do there after all (so she see's it). Does she want to be governor there and give her service to the people of Alaska, or be in the mainstream media. No one cares what she has to say anymore – she keeps forcing her way in to some type of "light". For someone who dislikes the media so strongly, she can't seem to keep herself out of the spot light. Is this the new Britney Spears? Even she knew when to stop. This woman is scarry!
all u liberals should wake up and stop drinking the kool-aid...obama never released his birth certificate and now his mother in law is going to live w/them on taxpayers dollar....what a joke ...why dont u go after joe the plumber oh that is right u all get fired when u do that....wake up people
I think this is great! Let her keep talking! The poor woman is sinking her own ship!
If she wants any decent shot at national politics in the future, she should shut her mouth – NOW!
Why can't this women just go away the election is over get over it.....
People really can careless what Sarah Palin has to say why is she getting so much attention?
When is this woman going to stop whining?
Who's at fault here? Palin for not shutting up, or CNN constantly reporting on her drivel. She's a pest, ignore her and she'll go away. Please CNN, ignore her!
I dont know about bloggers that lie, but I do know a hypocrite and liar when I see one. Children out of wedlock – but thats OK. Palling with terrorists – still hasnt been proven. Why dont you just go away. No one cares about you any more.
The woman had her 15 minutes of fame-she is not ready for primetime, and never will be....Quit interviewing her and she will go away. She belongs in Alaska!
ja – ARE YOU FREAKING SERIOUS????!!!!
Fresh, honest, and moral? What world are you living in? Oh, let me guess – you also think Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, Ann Coulter, and Joe the Idiot are outstanding American role models?
Instead fo fresh, honest and moral, I think it's more like stale, hypocritical and hateful.
Please... its only the most pathetic of people that would blame an entire group for their own failings. Ms. Palin, you are a politician who made some missteps and then was ridiculed for them. Welcome to national politics, ma'am. You fared no worse with the media than every other politician.
Of course, I understand: If the media isn't to blame for the way she is treated, than she must be. That must be VERY difficult to swallow when you just aren't that intelligent.
I hope she's around for a long long time. I hope she takes over the RNC since she is a perfect third-party leader.
Is it me, or has anyone noticed that CNN doesn't publish well thought out comments? Instead they post the "hate" and "acid."
I guess if I want to get published I have to say something like "PALIN IS A CRAZY LADY!?!?" We need to just ignore her!!
Maybe that will get published (versus the other the 5 comments this month that were well thought out and compelling). HAHA.
Palin needs to stop complaining. MSN needs to stop trying to portray Palin's whining to legitimate news.
Someone, please give this woman her own TV show! How about a ' reality show' centering around 'cat-fighting females.' Meow. Or maybe she could replace Springer or Povich. They are a tired, pathetic pair.
I do agree with her about the bloggers though. Heck, I wouldn't be writing this post if I had something more important to do right now.
She is like a train wreck, I know I shouldn't read these silly articles, but I can't stop myself! Sarah, there is a "g" at the end of "ing" words, even a CEO knows that.
She doesn't like SNL, but she appeared on the show.
She hates the media, but she gives an interview every day of her life.
She cannot take responsibility for anything, a true Bushie!
Go away Sarah, who is running the great state of Alasa while you are giving interviews ad nauseum? Todd?
Sarah Palin is like a car wreck that, inadvertently, causes you to slow down and gawk.
There's no way she can seriously believe she's a contender for the White House in 2012; does she honestly think the "gotcha media" won't recall every stupid thing she said/did before & after the election?
Let's just drive by this train wreck, pray that everyone is well and not too seriously hurt and keep traffic flowing; there is so much else going on in our country and in the world, that if we ignore her she will eventually fade away.
For love of all things precious to mankind, can CNN please stop picking up on things this woman says! How is this of any importance to me? To the mortgage mess? To the credit crunch? To the lack of universal healthcare? My point incase it was missed is that SARAH PALIN IS OF NO IMPORTANCE. Now if CNN would simply stop making a point to care, she will get the point that WE DO NOT CARE ABOUT WHAT SHE SAYS – which is usually something nonsensical anyway!
Please CNN I beg you, help us in making this woman just fade! She is a pathetic sore looser who has in her shallow fantasy filled world that her words are of some importance to us. Let her go back to school and get a real degree and then maybe, just maybe she can have a better Katie Couric interview!!! Or maybe she should just keep eating moose burgers, pray for a brain and continue seeing Russia from her house!
It is about time she fights back! All she did was run for office and put up a good fight. While I agree that she was not quite prepared to become VP, she doesn't deserves all of the hate from media and you posters. ………… “bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie.” funny it sounds like she was refering to the posters here at CNN!
Huckabee/Palin 2012 "The Real Change
My problem is reading the story and posting my comment before I'm overwhelmed by other posts. I must say that people (including myself) think this female idiot is nuts and ready for a Psych Ward. Her education leaves her absolutely clueless.
Stop posting stories about Sarah Palin or Amy Winehouse! We don't care about either!
Notice what she didn't say...
Trig is my biological child.
Clearly Palin has already been promoted to her highest level of incompetence. As an Alaska citizen, I wouldn't wish her on my best friend, let alone Country!
Actually, it is good that in her wisdom Sarah Palin has decided to go for overexposure in the media, and you what happens to people who that in the end. I think she should keep it up, and watch her supporters fall by the wayside.
Frankly, from this part of the world, Governor Palin sounds senile. It is as though one had a lousy drunk night and comes out to explain why they stripped in public. Duh, when you have one bad night, you simply move on and convince yourself, in the crevicles of your mind that you are not going to be that 'DUMB' again.
She was simply not ready and that is a stepping stone...but don't try to sell us this nonsense!
A simple word of advice: ' Get off the scene for a while and re-align your ammo!'
"cryptic" is a very poor word choice for the issue being discussed......I suspect that there is a dictionary missing from the Wasilla library.
What do you think the real reason is she won't release her medical records? I'm going with too many abortions. This could make a good
Letterman top ten reasons list.
While it's true that the press is at this point excessive, Americans respect a politician that can keep it cool in response to a beligerent media.
It's part of the game, and she isn't winning points with responses like these.
Gah, Palin... go away already!
Sarah Palin is what this country needs. It's stupid pathetic people like you that have brought this country to its low point. All of you insecure individuals need to get a life. Face it journalism is dead. All the media cares about is spreading smut and lies and negative people like you help it along. Have a great day you bunch of losers!
Did she actually go to 5 colleges for a degree in journalism? I think that's a more interesting story.
stop reporting about her.
no one cares!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
palin who?
Enough already about Sarah who? We don't care anymore and CNN why don't you quit covering her? She loves the spotlight. Leave her alone and give us all a break. We'd rather read about interesting issues. She is not worth the continued coverage. She will go away when the press stop interviewing her. When she then asks for an interview, ask "why"? The Republicans really aren't interested in her running if and when they have a chance.
This isn't funny anymore. As a mental health professional, I would advise Mrs. Palin to seek counsel for her and her family members who I'm sure are as unstable as she is. I'm starting to feel sorry for her just as I do for some of my patients who have severe mental illness.
CNN... why are you still covering Palin? Old news.
What? She's still talking?
Because at this point, all I hear is, "blah blah blah."
Be gone with you, governor. Back to your state. They may still like you up there, but you've reached your expiration date in the lower 48 and are starting to be rather stale.
I hate fox for there cheesy outright lies.
The left has enough genuine dirt to dish out and should not resort to cheesy, insulting musings.
Maybe Trig's parentage won't be suspect if Sarah Plain acted like a repsonsible and not fly from Alaska to Texas to attend a conference in the ninth month of her pregnancy. And then when her waterbroke flew eight hours back to Alaska instead of going to the nearest hospital ion Texas because as Todd Plain stated they didn't want a Texas doctor to deliver the baby. (Did know doctors in Alaska are better than the ones in Texas.) Instead of going to the hospital in Anchorage (which is better equip) drove nearly a hour to the hopsital in near her home town. On top of that they knew her pregnancy was risky.
And picture sof Sarah Plain taken by her local press doesn't show her to be pregnant, even in her third trimester.
Ada Palin'shistory of lying.
No wonder people still aren't sure of Trig's parentage.
I can't wait to see Obama do NOTHING different than this administration did. He will pal around with the oil barons just like Bush and Clinton did before him. Sure, he might give us all another stimulus check. Once he gets to actually see all the top secret things for the first time he is going to understand what he is up against.
Since the election Gov. Palin has signed the license for the gas pipeline, finished her state budget, joined Gov.Perry in a child obesity campaign, created a rural subcabinet, worked to continue air sevice for Japan Airlines made numorous appointments, and endured arson at her church. Sounds like she has moved on,only wish the Palin haters would do the same.
... a bit like Rudy, no; he overplayed his 9/11 card because he had none other.
Well most of you don't care what she has to say, but I do! If I were in her position I'd be doing the same thing. You might as well get use to it and if you don't want to hear what she is saying then quit reading and listening to her and quit blogging.
This cheap piece of baked Alaska is determined to get 30 minutes of fame at any cost and that's 15 minutes too long in my book.
It is sad that our Country has gone so morally backward. When a "real" person speaks out the truth, it is no longer recognized. Sarah Palin, I am sorry that there are those who are ignorant to the truth. Please do not quit standing for what our Forefathers based this Country on. God Bless You.
Please just go.
You SHOULD HAVE told the McCain folk that you were "gonna call some of the shots"? Wish you would have said it. then you'd still be below the radar screen of the world, just a-watchin' those doggone, dadgum "Rooskies" from your taxpayer-built front poarch for the lower forty-eight.
BTW Where's da clothes, and Toddie's silk briefs?
Perhaps Palin shouldn't have dropped so many white lies herself. What goes around comes around
T from NY sounds like SP herself. Ya betcha and also.
Just go away already!
Sarah Palin is not an idiot. And she's not nuts. At least not any more than the rest of us. She's a human being. Just like John McCain. Just like Barack Obama. Just like each of you who are taking the time to express your opinions here. She's a wife and a working mother of 5 children. Yes, that's right... 5 children. Two sons, three daughters. She works hard at whatever she does and currently that involves governing the State of Alaska. I'd like to see how the vast majority of the American public would hold up under the media onslaught which has been brought down upon this particular human being and her family. Sarah Palin is a very bright, professional woman. But when you start dragging someone's children through the mud, how many mothers do you know (smart, professional, or otherwise) who would stand quietly by and let that happen? Leave Governor Palin alone. Leave her family alone. Leave Alaska alone. Surely, you can find something better to do with your valuable time.
News flash to Sarah:
It'll only get worse if you decide to run for President in 2010 AND
GET BACK TO WORK as being Gov. of Alaska.
What Lies did she tell on the trail? You all make her out to be evil so what did she say that was untrue? I hope you can name more lies than Obama told or he is no better than her. Also it is noteworthy to mention that some of you seem to think that you speak for the country, well you don't. The hard left presence on this site represents maybe 2 or 3% of this country. It is finny that you think anything that Palin does is not news but when we see pictures of Obama's kids getting ready for school that is news.
Regardless of whether the media's treatment of Gov. Palin was fair or not, she knew from the moment she accepted the vice presidential nomination that she was out of her league and in over her head. She has no one to blame but herself.
As far as her comment, "you have to let it go", it does not appear that she is really taking her own advice by perpetuating discussion with her constant responding.
Part of me would like her to stop talking, yet the more she talks the better I will feel on Jan. 20, 2009.
This is the woman who likened herself to a pit bull. Remember that? She is just a petty, self-entitled person to whom things seem to have come relatively easily, possibly because she spends more time on her makeup and hair than she does on issues and self-education. She wanted it all without doing the work and paying the dues. She spewed vitriol, hatred, arrogance, and ignorance and complains that all of such comments were repeated and reported. As noted before, she has much too much in common with W., and, yes, I am afraid of her. Just to clarify–there is a difference between sly and intelligent. She is not intelligent.
If she's been quoted correctly then someone should whisper in Ms Palin's ear that "cryptic" was not "le mot juste" in that sentence. She obviously doesn't really know the meaning of the word, and it made absolutely no sense in that context
The longer she does this, the further away she is from being a serious contender for any national office.
Palin said ... Hilary should stop whining about the media coverage she received during the primaries if she expects to play with the big boys.
Palin said...Obama palls around with terrorists and that more questions need to be asked.
Palin remained silent when supporters shouted overly negative remarks about Obama.
Palin answered the questions in the Couric interview, not McCain and she went back and continued to give ridiculous answers even after she claims she knew it was not going well.
Palin has been inviting every right wing slanted media source to interview her and scream about her press coverage. I hate to say it but Fox is considered MSM, despite the poor reporting.
The fire department goes to where there is a fire. McCain-Palin were an inferno.
Palin is scary in that the people of Alaska have to depend on her for governor. What does this say about that state?
Ha ha ha ha ha!!!! Wait ... wait... let me look again... HA HA HA!!!
I'll just echo what everyone else says: JUST GO AWAY!!
Don't go away mad Sara, just go away...... for the love of god, just go away!
I'd like to appologize to most of you hear at the CNN site for her remarks. I don't think she meant to offend you.
I am sick and tired of Republican whining regarding the "liberal" media. It seems that it is their Teflon against taking personal responsibility AND their nifty little make-your-own-martyr kit, all rolled into one. Seriously, the pity party needs to stop.
Obviously she has empty head on her shoulder and she wanted to get attention. She is the one who is pathetic.
ann palin? sarah coulter??? hmmm.... somebody has a new BFF...
look, the point wasnt whether you could see russia from alaska, it was why that qualified as foreign experience. as always, this woman just doesnt get it. i guess thats part of the 'alikeness' between her and the rest of the GOP....
Some people will say anything to stay in the public eye. And, fortunately, CNN is just silly enough to fall for it!
Why are you still talking? Don't you know if you go away we will all be better off. Stop already!!!!!!!!!!
You don't know the woman. stop demaning her, and just admit the Liberal media painted this crappy picture of her. I like Sarah palin, and i think McCain and the Media from the start had this war against her. katie Couric-shut your dang mouth, you're not that great.
Methinks Palin doth protest too much!!!
She has...before our very eyes...developed an obsessive disorder: She's now obsessed with righting what she believes to be wrongs committed against her and "fixin'" her reputation. I'm willing to bet this is the first and last thing Palin thinks about every day.
Is there a doctor in the house? Please, someone, get this woman some medication!
On the other hand, all this whining speaks to her lack of desire ever to run for a place in Congress or the White House in the future. Going out of her way to make herself look the raving, self-pitying lunatic to the media is the equivalent to burning that particular bridge. It's now her personal bridge to nowhere.
Come on – it's painfully obvious... Sarah Palin is a bipolar schizophrenic lunatic that John McCain picked. What kind of clown would seriously consider Sarah Palin as a VP except an out of touch old dude who can even use a computer or even read e-mail? To honestly think Americans would take Sarah Palin or John McCain seriously would be a major throw back to all of America and the world. We just got rid of one clown named Bush! Please give me a break!!!
Poor Sarah....someone get her a tissue...waaaaahhhhhh......
Who are the bottom feeding reporters still bothering to interview this vapid, ignorant waste of oxygen?
Her state has the highest number, by far, of rapes per capita, her teenage daughter got knocked up by a loser drop out with a drug dealing mom, she's been publicly called out for corruption, most of her own party can't stand her.... and she's whining about....BLOGGERS?
God I hope someone puts her in her place when she's up for reelection. I would be willing to donate money to ANYONE who has a chance of booting her from politics and the media forever – so she can happily go back to some podunk town to have 3984 more kids with ridiculous names.
AH...I can hear the violins playing the Pity Party Song....
I think Palin has had enough of media disasters. It's unfair for any person to be scrutinized this much by people and the press. I am not saying I support Palin, or her party, nor am I saying I dispise her. I just wish people would stop bothering her and her family. If I were her I would try to stay out of the public eye as much as possible. It is her fault for all this attention, unfortunately, and I accept that. She's a governor for pete's sake, though, she has to be at least semi qualified. People who are bothering her probably never been under the pressure that she and her family have endured. People should just let it alone. However, enough with the sympothey; I beleive that she cost McCain the election and she does seem some what unethical and a hypocrit. I wish the media was as noteworthy as it should be and leave the practice of tabloid journalism forever. Media and Executive branches in both catagories should be ashamed of themselves along with those who are throwing out harsh words to a public servent. Please be more proffesional America!
Even as a Republican, this woman terrifies me. Other than Bill Clinton, I've never seen somebody who so craves being in the lights and being talked about. Yikes. Does anybody think that she wants to become President to actually serve the country as opposed to her own self interest??
will somebody put a hockey puck betweenher lip stick for good. I'm sick of your flapping mouth. What you still talking for. just shut the blank up!
Sarah. Sarah. Sarah.
Thats POLITICS. Maybe you should be a little less whinny, and a bit more tough. If you can't be tough then LEAVE US ALONE.
Doesn't Palin have a degree in Journalism? Maybe she should quit politics (thank God) and put the integrity back in the business of honest, thoughtful, unbias, media journalism.
That's right, she can't do that because she doesn't have any of those qualities.
Thank you CNN for your daily trashing of Sarah Palin, as the more you write your tired drivel, the more free press that Palin gets.
There was a time where we all appreciated someone who achieved some level of success based not on their name, or who they were married too, but on their own words and actions, but “journalists” like you and MSDNC employ, have long ago removed their veil of objectivity.
I venture that many of the same types of people that mock Palin for her non-traditional speech and folksy demeanor, would love her if she simply abided by the principles set forth by the National organization of women and feminists all.
Nobody with any integrity would even suggest that she was fairly treated during the election
CNN should be looking into Panetta, Holder and the socialist Climate person who Obama nominated over the weekend, instead we get Palin hammer pieces and Obambi fluff pieces.
Nothing has changed since the election, the love fest continues.

I think Sarah Palin is the only breath of fresh, honest, and moral air that there is on the political front today and instead of hammering her all the time, I feel she should be recognized for what a great and inteligent person she is. It is my hope that she will consider letting her name be placed in the hat for the presidency in 2012. By then, WE WILL REALLY BE NEEDING A BREATH OF FRESH AIR. God bless you Sarah, keep up the fight. There are a lot of us with you.
You probably think George Bush was a good president too, also smart. You may be more stupid then they are.
Once again the prima-donna beauty Ice queen of denial is speaking to the voters.
Will she be speaking along with Bush tomorrow night ? Sharing her Christian Wrong values ?
Her DRILL DRILL DRILL big oil intentions ?
Would you please remind her she is not a poor victim , but a volunteer obstructionist !
For Palin to make the statement about the honesty of voters is sad, she can't take the truth.
And like our out going president , Mrs Palin is out of touch with the world.
Stay in Alaska, and give my best to Ted Steven's .
Let me know when the 3,000 dollar red leather jacket goes up for sale on ebay ?
Somebody needs to explain to her that nobody cares about his stuff anymore, not during these economic times. Yes, Sarah, you are Trig's mom. Every time you speak that becomes painfully clear.
sociopath.
Do you want some cheeze with that whine? Go away!!!!!!!!!! Nobody cares!!!!!!!!!!!!! Being a puppet sucks, doesn't it?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No matter your politics and like/dislike of Palin's positions – the rumors and pure hatred directed toward her is beyond reason. I would be "blasting" and "slamming" the people who were attacking my family as well, in that sense she is reacting as most people would. The anonymity of blogs and posting boards does seem to bring out the worst in people. The name calling and extremism on both sides is appalling. If these conversations were being held between people who had to sit side by side at a party or see each other across their back yard fence the "conversations" would be much more civil and respectful.
I think the question to pose may be – Are you bored Palin or just pathetic?
Oh, please. Snarking out bloggers? Doesn't the Governor have anything better to talk about? Aren't there more important topics? In fact, now that we're talking about more important topics, isn't there anything more important to discuss than the Governor of Alaska? Give it a rest, folks.
What's pathetic are Ms. Palin's attempts to keep her name in the news media. Sarah, go away, we don't care about you anymore. Your 15 minutes are up
Gov. Palin, let me be the first to apologize for all the idiots posting on this site. They've done nothing in the service of this country other than complain. You have my admiration for standing tall at this time. Thank you.
I don't care one bit about who is Trigg's mom even though I believe Sarah Palin is his mother. This woman has no depth of intellect and it says something about Alaska that she has been elected as governor. Fox news (especially Greta Van Sustern) is so enamored by her so why does CNN keep putting her face before us? Fox filmed her cooking moose chili in a business suit and high heels and wants us to believe that is the real world????
It is ironic that people talk about her 5 minutes of fame, and how she meant nothing to the race, and nobody cares what she thinks or says.
The fact of the matter is there is DEMAND from the public, and the media, for Sarah Palin stories, and interviews.
Like it or not, she isnt going away.
A 'huge' McCain miscalculation???
That is McCain's specialty item.....
huge miscalculations. Before long
they all look the same.
I find Sarah Palin the only comic relief in this drab and dull media coverage. Encore!

You are either unaware, or ignoring the facts. Sarah Palin's comments about "you can see Russia from Alaska" was the result of editing her remarks to appear her less informed than she really was. She was asked about relationship to Russia as a result of the Georgia incident. She commented that that while the US should stand firm, we should not return to the days of the cold war. She also said that Russia was an important neighbor to Alaska – and to emphasize that, made the remark about being able to see Russia -. The editors took out all her comments except the one quoted above. Quite a hatchet job!
The spotlight is a very addictive drug & Sarah Palin is 100% hooked. She needs to take a page from her running mate John McCain, GO SOMEWHERE AND CHILL!! She loves being famous & she's trying to get rich. The Republican party have to be still kicking themselves in the butt behind this one. Palin needs to allow us to forget about her but she won't let us. It's pathetic.
I'm feeling the need to comment on a few things I've read in other posts.
To those tired of seeing Palin in the press: Look at it this way, she's a lot like a train wreck. You shouldn't stare, but you just can't look away cause you're wondering what might happen next. Granted, I'm tired of her too and I just wish she'd go back to her office and do her job.
Her use/misuse of English doesn't bother me so much. But it just doesn't come across as professional enough to be in the White House.
I too feel she needs to toughen up and look in the mirror. For all the things she spewed out during the campaign, all she can do now is whine? If lies anger you Ms. Palin, why were you not upset at the hatred shouted about Obama during your campaign speeches? Shoot, even McCain chose to stand up for Obama and tried to stop that stuff.
I agree with earlier comments in that if you want questions regarding your son's birth to stop, give people a definitive answer!
Palin loves to be in the spotlight. This shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone who watched her political rallies and television interviews. She is just playing the blame game to get attention – it's what she does best. Everyone is tired of hearing about her regrets.
Get over it, go away and shut up.
You can't have it both ways. On the one hand she wants to be in the spotlight and get lots of attention, i.e. press. But then when she opens her mouth and we all hear what a joke she is – suddenly the press is supposed to be quite and stop picking on her. And saying she wishes she had let the McCain campaign know how she was a CEO of a state and had lots of life experience, was 40 years old, etc. – are you kidding me? Guess what – they already knew that stuff. You can bet they knew everything about her before they selected her. And newsflash Sarah – the reason you didn't call your own shots is because you were the "running mate". Look it up if that is a new one for you. They were trying to protect your image by not having you open your mouth too much – and now we know why.
Sarah, Sarah, Sarah. Tsk, tsk. You are the one who is a liar. And, of course, we understand that the "biased liberal media" is any reporter who catches you and your ilk in in a lie and exposes you. Perhaps you should consider that one of the primary reasons you are not the Vipe President-elect is that you don't know (among many, many other things) that an anonymous blogger, is not a member of the media.
Does she plan on keeping her political life alive by using these tactics like this for the next 8 years? I hardly think she is qualified or educated enough to do the job of President in the future. I don't care what gender runs for the Whitehouse but I would appreciate someone with better control and a family history that wouldn't constantly be a point of concern and questioning. This whole family is a train wreck waiting to happen. I surely hope the Republicans wake up soon and understand they need changes and starting with her would be a good start. She's not what the Republicans need now or in the future.
are you people for real !? get off the internet and get a life.
"Oh and if she really wants the issue of Trig's birth mother to go away, just release the medical record. That would end it right there"
Why? It has nothing to do with anything and is no one's business. Obama released his birth certificate but he felt he needed to in order to prove he was eligible to run for President. All these people whining and complaining and putting Palin down are just as bad as she is.
"Move on!" "Enough already!" "Get over it!" Take your own advice and stop worrying about Palin.
Personal responsibility no longer exists in the republican party...it's always someone else's fault.
Lie and then quickly call someone else a liar to redirect attention from your own lies. No need to do your homework or seek education that could further your career, just point fingers at the media when you screw up or look stupid.
Oh, and dish out accusations and critcizm, but cry foul when you are forced to take it (Ann Coulter taught her that).
Sarah Palin is the poster child for why the republican party keeps losing elections.
One feels a teeny bit sorry for Sarah Palin. It's clear from her comments that she is boiling with anger because the media and the bloggers exposed her family's trailer trash values to the entire nation. How fortunate we Americans are to have rejected her and McCain. She is welcome to stew in her own bile for the rest of her pitiful life.
Deceit has caught up with the Republican party. She's just one of the recent victims of people no longer believing what Republicans in general have to say.
Did anyone realize there is a tiny smiley face in the bottom left corner of CNNs webpages?
She can't go away if dozens of media outlets want to interview her. The media is to blame for continuing to keep her a topic of interest.
POOR LITTLE SARAH: Now that the election is over, she is now available for seemingly unlimited interviews. Truly not ready for prime time.
Good for her the media is what keeps these gutter stories going.
You go girl !!!
The fact that Governor Palin did not submit her health records during the campaign aroused suspicion and she created the problem for herself. Many wondered why someone with her beliefs would agree to a Sonagram– a procedure which offers women information that might result in an abortion. Her response to the Sonagram that showed a Downs Syndrome fetus rallied support but no records of that Sonagram have ever been produced. Palin politicized her pregnancy. It is in the public record. She is vulnerable to questions. She loves the attention.
This country really dodged a bullet on November 4th. Let's all just be thankful.
I love this lady just because the libs hate her. Lets treat Obama's wife the same way the libs treat Palin, then it won't be hateful. lol
Mrs. Palin, Please, just because a loser with serious PTSD issues chose you as a running mate, don't let it go to you're head.
WHO CARES. Why does CNN continue to cover this woman? She is old news!
Go Sarah! The liberals fear you because you are genuine and not hypocritical like them. Where are the feminists to stick up for you? The entire left is built on intellectual dishonesty and keeping the poor poor so thhe left can stay in power. I love reading their frenzied wailing posts.
I couldn't care less about Trig's paternity and I seriously doubt if any relevant number of people care. Can't Palin just vanish?
I wonder if my theory from many months ago holds up. Palin was chosen by McPain because he knew he could not and would not win. This way he had a scapegoat, knowing good and well she was the most incompetent person he could find for VP. The smokescreen was that she is a woman. He could and did bow out gracefully while poor ignorant and stupid Palin is still running around making a fool of herself. Not bad strategy. However, it is REALLY time for her to go AWAY. The average American is smarter than her and we all have figured that out by now.
Hey Ja,
I have a Brooklyn Bridge to sell you
hahahahaha
all the tolerant and loving libs just can't help but hate this woman. i find it hilarious.
even funnier: most of you idiots don't know the difference between your and you're.
you people are pathetic. this is why i don't come to CNN to get my news. i just pop in occasionally to see what the leftist lunatics are up to. too funny.
Sarah Palin is notorious for lying. How can she accuse anyone of lying when she has serious problems telling the truth.
She is so incredibly pathetic trying to explain her way out of saying that she can see Russia from Alaska. Taken out of context my foot – she used that line to justify her foreign policy experience. Will Palin ever admit that she a nerd?
It's hypocritical for Palin to say anything about lies after their Rovian-style campaign.
A toast to pathetic online bloggers everywhere and their hard work ridiculing moronic politicians. er, correction, in some cases it's not so hard to ridicule at all – Sarah Palin for example.
She should have been George Bush's VP.
It would have been 8 years of "Laugh In"
She can't take it....Blago,ooooo
I don't understand why her son's birth is even an issue. I don't live in Alaska, so I maybe I am missing something. Is there a reason to believe she isn't Trig's mother? If she isn't, who would it be? And why should she even have to prove it. I mean, she delivered Trig in a hospital, didn't she?
Seriously CNN.
No one wants to hear about Sara Palin anymore. No one wanted to hear about here when she was McCain's running mate.
She obviously can't handle being famous if she publicly insults her fellow Americans living up to the responsibility of fulfilling their First Amendment rights, so stop making her famous.
This woman belongs no where but on one of those little novelty calenders with the stupid quotes.
Just by reading the ignorant attack remarks made here makes me understand even more what Governor Palin is about. The fact that some of YOU don't get it makes me very concerned about the future. Governor Palin is smart, articulate, honest, educated, kind, and a great mom, wife, governor, etc.
First I ask myself, how OLD are these people making such stupid comments? And then I wonder how EDUCATED you are? For you to say JUST GO AWAY – well, just WHO do you think YOU are? Most of you are not even worthy to lick the soles of the Governor's boots let alone make stupid untruthful remarks! You haven't seen or heard the last of the awesome public servant and leader known as Governor Palin. Besides, those of you who make such hateful unfounded remarks wouldn't have the round objects to tell the Governor to her face what you feel so at ease saying here. Sarah Palin in 2012 to pick up the pieces from the Obama.
She is the reason I no longer admire John McCain, a tragic lack of judgement on his part
She's right.
You bloggers are pathetic. You sit here all day and debate things you have no say in, using blogosphere rumors to launch accusations and ruin careers.
I'm not a Palin supporter, but she's probably a better person than most of you negative bloggers – she's accomplished more in her life than the typing of a vitriolic 50 word essay embedded into the tail end of a CNN article.
ja, not that many of you, thank goodness. Take a breath mint for freshness, at least it won't hammer on, and on.
Does she really think that she is the only one that bloggers lied about?
Ms. Palin continues to insult the intellect of all Americans through her continued suggestions that she actually had the skills to be a Vice-President. Regrettably for Ms. Palin, her candidacy and knowledge of world and economic issues, were comical. She provided great fodder for America's comedians. Unfortunately, she let down John McCain and his supporters with her nonsense and lack of intellect. If America is to regain credibility on the world stage, then the Palin's must lay low for awhile as the majority of world citizens can see right through her b.s. She's in it for the money now and it's all quite sickening.
Sarah has attempted to fetch some ideological scum which is at the root of the criminal inclination in the American psyche. She shuttled her campaign between two dangerous elements, racism and terrorism. In many instances she threw the bait into the republican arena hoping that an insane person would carry out her murderous intent. She failed every time. She had not realized that America had matured. The age of the Klan has expired. Here in America even Moose and Whales, dogs and cats have rights-they are protected by law. If she is not charged for conspiracy to commit political murder, she should simply go away FOR GOOD.
Is she one of the REAL Americans that were mentioned during her campaign?
Has anyone told her that it is over? There is no recount? If she wants to go on to national prominence she should talk about the serious issues facing the nation and the world, not about personnel innuendo with which all politicains and celebrities have to endure.
I can't understand why it would be hard to prove that Trig is her son. She was a mayor and she's a Governor of a state. There are bound to be some pictures of her while pregnant. I just don't get it.
Palin is not worth talking about. She needs to go away and quit bothering the American People. We are in such dire circumstances and all she can thing about is her special needs child. I don't care who the child belongs to and neither does anyone else. Please CNN find something useful to report.
...From the peanut gallery, here comes Sarah Palin.
Hi, remember when I was relevant?
To all those who enjoy ripping into the acting governor of the state of Alaska ... You're all FUBAR
good god sarah, shut the hell up and get on with your life.
clearly you're not cut out for politics at a high level.
To CNN, I'm 26 years old, and haven't heard words like the ones that come out of Ms. Palin's mouth since I was in high school. If teeny-bopper she-said-she-said clawing is newsworthy, then at least hire some investigative journalists of that age to properly cover it. If you're not willing to sink all the way, then please investigate some grown-up stories, like how entrenched we are in these bloody wars, the corrupt managing of such, what it's doing to the world, you know, NEWS. Tired of this non-person Sarah Palin. Please read the comments here, no one will miss her!
Sarah Palin wants out of the spotlight so bad–but she keeps putting herself there! If you don't want attention, stay in Alaska!
She is the one who is starting to sound pathetic.
"I'd be callin the shots" – such a deluded thing she is – from nothing to sorta something back to nothing – she's a legend in her own lunchtime.
Palin who?
actually, she has a point. Unfortunately, it's not the one she's trying to make. Governor Palin has never objected to the blogs that support her which overstate her credentials and experience. Nor has she objected to blogs which make false statements about the President-elect's birth certificate, Muslim religion, sexual orientation, drug use as an adult, or the like. She happily went on programs such as Hannity's, when Hannity repeatedly misrepresented the roles of Jim Johnson and Franklin Raines as "key advisors" of Mr. Obama.
If Governor Palin is unwilling to condemn all anonymous bloggers–including those who support her and those who criticize her opponents, she's seeking selective freedom of speech.
NOW SARAH,GRAB SOME DRUGS FROM LEVI'S DRUG MOTHER AND GO AND ENJOY SOME GOOD S-X WITH THE BIG DUDE.
why are we still listening to her?
The only time I have ever heard the question about who is Trig's mother is out of Sarah Palin's mouth. Sarah, it's over. Get on with your life. Suck it up. Swallow your pride and leave the rest of us alone.
CNN do Sarah a favor and let it go, the more you cover her the more the people are against her. If she is ever to re-coup her diginity she will need to fall out of sight. Not to return until 2016 because if she even thinks 2012 will be a good year for her. She will be deeply disapointed. Too many bad memories of the way she campaigned against our new PRESIDENT OBAMA.
Poor Sar hahahahahahah. can't stand the heat but won't get out the kitchen.
Just please go away already.
YIKES! If the media and people continue to keep pestering her, she will not go away. She obviously has to have the last word in every situation. DON"T GIVE HER THE OPPORTUNITY TO OPEN UP HER MOUTH! Out of sight, out of mind. She will NEVER GET IT! CNN, give us a break and leave painful Palin alone. Attention just makes her THRIVE – negative or positive. Pathetic.
Sarah,
The dispute was not whether you can see Russia from Alaska, but rather, whether such a 'fact' actually makes you qualified in matters concerning foreign affairs and national security. The offices of president and vice-president of the United States, from a foreign policy and diplomacy perspective, require both intellectual and emotional subtly, dexterity – two characteristics of which you consistently continue to demonstrate a frightening and profound lack.
Palin = Failed
Talk about trying to stay relevant discussing irrelevant issues. Would someone please put a moose head in her mouth, so would be quite? Geez!
How much will she take to move to Russia from Alaska ? I wish she'd just stop that pathetic whining and go away. I've seen and heard enough of her. She never shot a moose, she talked it to death. The mistake the media is making is to go on interviewing her. Stop giving her coverage. She's a nobody and needs to go back to that.
Ok, so you can see Russia from a tiny island way off the coast of Alaska, population 147, that you yourself have never set foot on. While it's an interesting geographical tidbit, foreign policy experience it is not.
And, yes you probably should have called more of the shots if you wanted to be taken seriously. However, that was not your role and not the reason you were selected. You weren't supposed to be independent or have your own opinions. You were supposed to look pretty and read the words on the prompter. In simpler terms, you were used. What you really should have told the campaign from the start is, "Why are you offering this to me? This feels like a stunt. Thanks, but no thanks."
I have a very strong feeling she is Trig's grandmother. I have read the reports and facts and the case is VERY strong.
We may never know though as the hospital that he was born in has totally covered it up.
No, no, no people. We don't want her to go away. The more she talks, the more of these interviews she gives; the less of a chance she will ever have a legitimate shot at entering politics on the National stage again. Let her screw up Alaska, we've already got enough to fix on the national level.
I do feel kind of bad for her about the questions about Trig. Seriously, it's almost as ridiculous as questioning where Obama was born. If she's a good mother what does it matter??
Why doesn't she just supply the proof of Trig's paternity? She snapped out on an interviewer and said "You want my medical records?! You got 'em!" But we never did. Prior to that, I thought it was ridiculous, but now I wonder. In any case, she has been treated no worse by the press than Hillary Clinton, and Caroline Kennedy. She in fact belittled Hillary for being sensitive about it. I am tired of hearing that she was used by th McCain campaign. There are no victims, only volunteers. She was using McCain as much as she was being used. Her ambition is certainly vulgar and borders on evil.
it's not that I think she's lying...I just think she doesn't know.
Funny she wants to complain about lies when all she did was say how Obama hung out with terrorists. What goes around comes around.
To the liberals who can't stop harping on this woman: Give it up. She's a pathetic, incapable, clueless woman who is a tragic victim of her own ambitions. It's unbecoming - downright mean - to pick on someone who is such an easy target.
To the conservatives who make a hero out of her: Think about it. Do you really want someone like this in charge of our economy and our national security? She's not qualified to run for dog-catcher.
To the press that keeps resurrecting her: Stop focusing on topics that should be relegated to People magazine and give us the real news.
Most of this is nonsensical, but one thing in particular – someone actually thinks that the fair counterpart to Barack Obama releasing his birth certificate is Sarah Palin releasing the medical records of her visits to the obstetrician during pregnancy? Please tell me you are kidding. I am trying to think of something that could warrant the claim that a woman EVER need publicly release medical records from her pregnancy but am at something of a loss.
Hey people, you are all the "Bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers" she was referring to. Why do you all waste your time slamming someone who you consider insignificant in the first place? It's because you don't have lives of your own.
You all need to go rediscover yourselves before attacking someone else.
I don't know how, but Mz Palin is even more annoying than Her Royal Highness Cynthia McKinney that seems to have FINALLY gone away. Mz Palin should take a hint. Buffoons just keep being buffoons. I would've voted for McCain, even though I really didn't want to, until he picked her.
It's true ... alot of these blogs are hurtful and mean ... and they would think to write things differently if they were attached to a lie detector when writing. Just like all of you who voice your opinions ... she has the same right to voice hers ... you just don't want to hear it ... so what makes you sooo sure she wants to hear all of yours?
Amazing she almost was the VP... and now shes complaining about pointless stupid lies... hmm... what was that i heard from you a few months ago? Obama is a terrorist or something? hm...
All Palin had to do was supply a copy of the birth certificate and all could have been rectified months ago. She put her children constantly in the public eye and has no one to blame but herself. She loves the press – isn't it obvious? I get more and more disgusted with her as the days go by and I'm from Alaska!!
Silly Sarah is pitiful, pathetic, AND nuts! Her behavior during the presidential campaign was divisive, spiteful, dishonest, dangerous, and downright hateful! What kind of response does she expect? She has no one to blame but herself!
Why is this woman still talking? And why is anyone reporting what she says? I can understand her having a great deal of pent-up anger toward those who had many jokes at her expense, but she's not bright enough to understand that all she's accomplishing by her tirades is giving those same people more material! Tip to Sarah: Stop talking now. Tip to CNN: Stop reporting what she says! Enough is enough!
TO "T from NY"–you state that the media ask "the most ignorant questions I've ever heard of". Please list those questions to prove your point. If I recall, the question Palin struggled with the most was "What do you read?".
Tricky Dick all over again...the press is kicking me around!
Good grief - does this woman not understand that every time she opens her piehole, she looks like more and more like an idiot?
People, Palin is not going away! I give her credit she is keeping in the news so we don't forget her. So later down the road when something comes her way.... The name Palin will not be questioned as "who??"
Hey, I believe Palin was not treated very well by the media or the REP party. She was not a known governor/so she needs to stay known.
That's calling the kettle black...
S.P. the American public has already weighed in on you and the results came up short.
If all the hatemongering and lies you spewed is called religion then
you are sadly mistaken.
What you are trying to do is hog the mikes but the best advise is just go away have had enough.
What will it take to make this woman GO AWAY??? Palin's whining is about as important to our country as Oprah's weight gain. WHY IS THIS NEWS?????
Let's vote to see which state has the craziest governor, Illinois or Alaska. At least the good people of Illinois are doing something about theirs.
Sarah... you might actually be dumber than W!
What was poor McCain thinking?
Sarah Palin is so last year ... can't she just stay there?
Please!!!! Make her stop! On second thought...don't. This is soooo funny!!!
It seems that the majority of people responding to this article feel she is important enough to "waste" their time (or their employers) commenting about Palin. For those of you that call her an idiot, how many of you can even balance your credit card bills?
sarah palin is pathetic
she should stay in alaska and get an education
and tell her kids to get educations
What do we care what Sarah Palin thinks. After her remarks that "Senator Obama pals around with terrorist" she lost all credibility..I think she should stay in Alaska, and keep her thoughts to herself. I for one do not respect her opinion. And from what I read, and also heard from the conservative right, John McCain has little respect for her. I think she is lucky to have a job in Alaska.
Sarah, go away and look after your infant son, grandchild and children. It was not the public who came looking for your family. You paraded and exploited them when it was convenient for you! You made your bed, now lie in it.
"T"- I am guessing that is an attempt at satire?
By "gotcha" questions, are you referring to those like "what publications do you read"? The nerve of the media to ask such an ignorant question!
Sarah, Sarah, Sarah. You said from the beginning you had no doubts about being qualified to be Vice President, but you didn't even know what those qualifications were. You were the one who put Trig and Briston front and center, which wasn't very kind, much less "motherly." So please, please stop whining. Your comment about Russia WAS taken in context, and even as a joke, was pretty lame.
Now, accept that your hypocritical comments, lack of intelligence, and your complete inability to speak English correctly turned off the voters. As for us "bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie", it isn't a lie to express one's own opinion, and my opinion (covered, by the way, by the Constitutional right of freedom of speech) is that you are an ignorant, arrogant politician who is attacking the very people you should be courting if you really plan to run for public office of ANY kind again. Please, go away!
Alikeness??
I really wish someone would go to the Dollar Store and get her a dictionary.
Palin/Joe the Plumber 2012....another good reason to vote Democrat for years to come!
Governor Palin is looking like a very poor sport with all the whining. I just hope Republicans run her in 2012. Hopefully that will be the end of the Republicans, just like the Whig party.
Sarah Palin is like a floater. You flush and flush, but she still keeps coming back...
Once again, this has been humorous reading the hate filled venomous rants from the looney liberals. How they spew such venom when they should be so happy now! There is a reason they hate Sarah Palin so viciously: Fear and jealousy. There is nothing else that makes someone turn so hateful. Sarah is 100% correct in her statements. She has done nothing wrong. The anointed one has a frightening background and I am afraid for our country. The fakes in Hollywood have convinced these people that it is fashionable to support Obama.
If God truly loves us, Palin will lose the next Gubernatorial Election, not be asked to run for Senate, and quietly drop back into the obscurity she so richly deserves.
Maybe she'd go away if you all would STFU and mind your OGDB!
Behold the Palin paradox: a typical GOP attack dog AND crybaby extraordinaire.
She's fine with going on the attack: Obama, Biden, dems, liberals, the media- all favorite targets.
But when her own attacks are questioned, she and her defenders whine and cry like a nursery of newborns.
Journalism has definitely died!!!!!! Give me a freakin' break!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Aren't her 15 minutes up yet?
1. Sarah, look in the mirror.
2. If you don't want the media to keep dogging you then shut your mouth and keep it shut. All you're doing is continuing to fuel their fires.
Hey Palin........it's called freedom of speech!
Kind of like Joe the Plumber running his mouth.
Kind of like the media giving you space every time you open your mouth!
Blog that!
Sarah, Sarah, Sarah. You said from the beginning you had no doubts about being qualified to be Vice President, but you didn't even know what those qualifications were. You were the one who put Trig and Briston front and center, which wasn't very kind, much less "motherly." So please, please stop whining. Your comment about Russia WAS taken in context, and even as a joke, was pretty lame.

Please, go away!
Why, Why WHY are we still talking about this ignorant and thankfully, irrelevant irritant? Make her go AWAY!!
I question the frozen minded Alaskans for voting this nincompoop into office in the first place.Good grief,was she so different then as she is now?I doubt it..
Well, we'll be ingnorin' ya there Sarah and and don't really care what you have to say.
Sarah Palin, calling bloggers "liars"? This is the Sarah Palin who perpetually attempted to deceive the country into thinking she was against pork projects and did everything she could do to convince us that President Barack Hussein Obama is a terrorist? How ironic that the most nescient person when it comes to politics could make such an outrageous claim.
Sarah Palin is like a floater. You flush and flush, but she still keeps coming back... Somebody call Joe the Plumber!!!
Well, it looks like it is unanimous; you are not a very popular person, Sarah. I guess we have all realized that the frigid air has penetrated your soul.
-Anonymous
There's a lot of whining going on and Sarah Palin is not the one doing it.
Here is a person so self centered and unsure of herself, she goes defensive about everything. In a way, it is good she is letting the world know what a klutz she is, now, so she has no shot at national politics in the future. The people in Alaska need to get her out of office.
It is true i have seen the video: the media and Tina Fey twisted the words of Palin.
Her words about Russia were taken completely out of context.
Palin said something of preventing a second cold war , and pointed out that there is a island in Alaska from where you can Russia.
The video is on you tube.
As much as I dislike the woman and what she stands for, she does have a point. The internet is full of spewing garbage. What she isn't recognising is that it goes both ways, and plenty of terrible rumours about Obama and such go around. It's no like she's the only one. Remember the whole Barack Hussein Obama–the Muslim American-hater?
I'm a republican and I'm fed up with "know nothing" Palin.
2012??? I don't think so! No one took her words out on context. It was no joke that her statement that she could see Russia gave her foreign policy experience. Remember when Putin rears his head...where does he go...Alaska! This woman is such an idiot. She would do better just keeping her mouth shut. Maybe people would forgot about her
Palin is right about the pathetic way in which "bloggers" have tried to destroy her. All the hatemongers who try to trash her reputation – want her to go away – just make me laugh. She is a respected Governor and will continue to be relevent for a long time – perhaps becoming more and more relevent over time. If Obama and the rest of the libs do half as well as all of their Kool Aid drinking followers believe they will – Sarah will lose her relevance. My bet is that her relevance will only grow larger.
if the tiara doesn't fit, you must acquit.....obviously the most misunderstood person since Hamlet
I really hope she runs in 2012. More work for Tina Fey, entertainment for everybody, and an easy win for Obama. The echo chamber she surrounds herself with, full of the 15-20% of Americans who don't think she's a moron and who agree wholeheartedly with everything she says, are no doubt encouraging her to run and to be the Obama of the Right. Let's hope they are sufficient to convince her to run and to convince the Republicans to nominate her.
What a joke.
Hey Sarah,
Please practice what you preach. Stop lying and all this will just go away.
She doesn't know when to quit while she's ahead. Wait: she was NEVER ahead. LOL
Sarah, how does it feel to have people do to you what you did to Obama during the campaign? The very fact that your paper doesn't seem to understand what your talking about is proof that you are just trying to stay in the spotlight. Ya liked it didn't ya. Sorry but that is about as close as you will ever get to the White House so why don't you just go hibernate somewhere in Wasilla and let us alone.
She could dish it out, but can't take it. Typical child.
Sara Palin is a woman of faith who, thru her faith, has made an impact on so many. Yet, there are many that just don't understand what is really going on. Just remember God has a plan for all of us, it's not your plan, it's his. God Bless.
Another day, another group of people for Palin to blame everything on.
Why are wel still talking about this person? She needs to focus on running the state of Alaska and leave those of us in the lower 48 alone. Please!!!
If only she were smart enough to be able to handle "calling the shots". She is nothing more than a moron. Thank God she is not going to be 2nd in command. The woman is a joke.
As a life-long Democrat I say this with the utmost sincerity: I do dearly hope the Republicans nominate her for president in 2012.
Yes, seeing Russia from a sliver of land on an island in Alaska is a factual statement, but the fact of that statement was never mocked. What was mocked was that the statement was made in response to a question asking about foreign policy experience. Sarah, we all watched the interview IN CONTEXT. Don't try to rewrite history by telling us your words were taken ouf ot context...
Dear Sarah, Better remain silent and thought a fool than speak and leave no doubt
I think that all media outlets need to adopt a policy which states that from now until infinity there will be no more coverage of this blight on society. Enough already........Sarah, you have never made your point...of course it could be because you don't have a logical one that you could give or spare.
Kudos to the editor of the Anchorage Daily News, it's nice to see that you're not afraid of what pressures she might try to exert on your publication. Could it be because the folks in Alaska have seen her for the "mistake" that she is? Be very careful when it comes to electing your next Governor or Senator......
TRAIN WRECK!!!!
Sarah, if you are reading this, and I'll betcha are because we all know you read all of the major news sources, please understand that we as a people have made a grave mistake by electing a moron like Bush into office twice. But that doesn't mean we can't learn from our mistakes. You are a clueless twit and every anonymous or ostensible blogger on the internet has called you out on it. Don't lash out at our country because we were smart enough not to vote for you. We wouldn't trust you to run a Waffle House much less run a country.
The sooner you accept the fact that you were chosen for the sole purpose of gaining votes from disappointed Clinton voters and nothing more than a decoration for the GOP, the better off your career will be.
Sincerely, a non-anonymous writer,

She really does not know when to stop.
It's fairly obvious that when you have someone as blank and vapid as Palin, getting a taste of the spotlight, you know they're not going to reliquish it easily. And she cannot stay out of the picture. Let's simplify it: she's an idiot. Like a spoiled child who is having a tantrum, this is what she does–and it seems, on a weekly basis. Unfortunately, God help us all, this woman somehow managed to get elected to office. It makes you really question our voting system...
Keep in mind, it's a GOOD thing that people ARE taking her to task every time she opens her yap and says something else incredibly stupid. She's starting to make W. look like a Rhodes scholar (or at least a high school graduate...).
CNN should know better than to give this woman any more airtime; leave it in the hands of fiction-writers like Fox.
Forget Palin Stop trying to make her important She is History
Dumb and Dumber Not even interested in anything she has to say. She is irrelevant. Just a mistake to start. What ever happened to Dan Quail?
God, when will this woman fall off the face of the Earth? I'm so sick of hearing about her. Also sick of her constant whining.
And, frankly, if she didn't want people talking about her, she should have put her ego aside and not entered the national political arena!
I actually think she is not as "outraged" as she is pretending to be. I think this is just her pathetic way of making sure the spotlight stays on her.
ja> Moral and honest? Really? Do moral and honest people "accidently" bring home clothing that doesn't belong to them? Do moral and honest people smear the name of a good man...to the degree that makes other people want to kill him? Like they say, if you can't take it, don't dish it out!
I wonder if Sarah Palin would be equally annoyed if she were told about the city council race in Yakima, Wa., where the incumbent a prominent democrat Ron Bonlender was defeated last year by a republican Rick Ensey after an anonymous blogger spread lies that the incumbent had been arrested for DUI and other crimes, all of which were completely false. Candidate Ensey was asked before the election about the blog and claimed no knowledge. After councilman Ensey won, it was discovered that it was in fact councilman Ensey's wife, Diane, that was the source of the blog. Many called for councilman Ensey to resign. He refused, quoting at one point, "Mr. Bonlender needs to have a thicker skin." Mr. Bonlender is currently pursuing the Ensey's in court. Through all of this, the Enseys were strongly supported by the county republican party. Are the Enseys and the Yakima County Republican Party these "bored, anonymous, pathetic little liars Sarah Palin is speaking of?
Sarah Palin was villanized by the democrats to take down John MaCain, she has been villanized by the media and democrat supporters and has every right to defend and protect her position and family. I am a democrat and you people sicken my heart. Sarah Palin has done an amazing job as the Govenor of Alaska , and her family is off limits as you all cried Obama's should be. Hypocrites are what you are . The sick heartless mindless comments about Govenor Palin and her family are incomprehesible. Get on with your lives you have enough to worry about in the next four years, concentrate on that and leave the Palin's alone, they have done nothing wrong but take the fall for the failed republican party.
Yeah, but what a rack!!!
It's time you grow up, little girl. Your a small fish in a big pond. Learn how to survive before you take on the big fish.
okay – the stuff about her son Trig is out of hand.
it is not, however, the REASON most of us voted for Obama.
Palin herself is her own worst enemy.
forget the family stuff.
someone ought to tell her it's her personality that worked against her – her warped values and uneducated mind we found so bizzare.
and finally, WHY IS THIS NEWS?
What about pathetic republicans
She killed Bullwinkle.
John McCain.....WHAT WERE YOU THINKING WHEN YOU CHOSE HER AS YOUR RUNNING MATE....SHE IS UNBELIEVABLE!
If Sarah Palin says you just have to let go of it about criticism and the barbs she's been hit with – why does she keep harping and whining about it to the press? What would she have done in D.C. under that pressure cooker – go crying home to mama? Leave us alone, please. And to the mainstream media – please ignore the whining from this woman, her already dim light ought to have burned out long ago.
She's becoming more annoying than Paris Hilton. Now that I no longer have to fear that she might be running this country I could care less about her, her beliefs, what she says or does or what her family says or does. Let's get back to some real news, CNN!
Taken out of context? – Palin was asked what qualifications she had in the area of foreign relations, and she replied that "you can see Russia from Alaska." The context was what made her statement so ludicrous!
I will say to Palin, as eloquently as I am able, two words, "SHUT UP!"
Oh honey, shut up and go away already.
I can see the end of Palin's political career from my house!
Go away. . .
By the way, the media gave this woman weeks, even months, of respectful coverage...there just wasn't anything to cover. She was sequestered by the McCain campaign to try and bring her up to speed, at which they failed. She brought this barrage on herself, by refusing to meet the serious media, screwing up a simple interview with Katie Couric, actually appearing on SNL then raking them over the coals for making fun of her by simply repeating what she actually said, and by having no powers of intelligent communication. No wonder McCain's daughter won't discuss her! She's got more smarts than Sarah, apparently.
Does she keep getting dumber, or is there something strange in my tea?
Sarah is digging a deeper hole for her future candidacy with all these complaints. I have no doubt she will do things differently if there is a "next time." When she takes control of her own campaign, I hope she will spend some time learning about the Supreme Court (a few relevant cases beyond Roe V. Wade) and perhaps read a few books, newspapers and news magazines. What she should NOT do is continue the blame game – it looks petty and junior-highish.
Sarah Palin needs to go away! She was an embarrasment during the campaign and continues to be so. If she intends to have a future in future politics she really needs to stop alienating the media, other political types but particularly the public. I had hoped to be able to support an accomplished woman for public office but I now realize there is no way it will ever be Sarah Palin. She is rude, vindictive and continues to blame everyone for her demise but herself.
Sarah, please run your state and keep quiet, we've had enough!
Thanks Sarah, you just put the last nail in the coffin of your political career. Good Bye and Good Riddance
Maybe she shouldn't lie about other people and people won't lie about her. If this bigot decides to run in 2012 she will be laughed off the stage.
Palin could well be killing her career with all this nonsense. It doesn't put her in a good light and it's beginning to sound like a soap opera.
Keep it up Sarah!
Can we spend time on real issues! Who cares what this woman thinks – she needs to put a zipper on her lips and the media needs to quit giving her attention.
Sarah, don't go away mad, just GO AWAY!
...yeah, "t from ny" gimmie a beak. seriously.
Why isn't she talking about something relevant? Why not give a speech or interview about public policy? Something to rebuild her credibility on something.
Please, S. Palin, keep making a spectacle of yourself. Great. Keep doing it right up until the next Presidential election. And I hope the Republican Party allows you (read: is stupid enough) to be on the ticket again. What a gift. A gift of entertainment for the duration of that campaign and a gift of ensuring that you and your running mate (either Pres. or VP) do not win. It is a very sad state of affairs when someone like Palin can actually be on a national ticket. As I said throughout the campaign – it's like the "American Idol" of politics.
Keep it up Sarah – you give me a good laugh every day and that is very good for the soul
Palin is also bored . Interview after interviews she is giving. Like a energizer battery. When will it end.....in 2012!
She made herself into a punchline...plain and simple. And yes, bloggers on both sides can be cruel....but there were no palin complaints when those negative comments were against Obama, and those were far more dangerous than questioning the birth of her son.
Those were the ones that harkened images of lynchings and had people truly beleiving that obama was a terrorist, a muslim (which contrary to the way some beleive, are not one in the same) and not american. shouts of "kill him" and "bomb Obama" were not only "annoying" as palin describes, but out-right inflamtory and contained the possiblility of inciting violence.
So Palin, I have a word of advice...if you can't take the heat stay out of the kitchen!
She is Dick Cheney in a skirt.
Please, Please, pretty please with sugar on top just make her go away ..NOW.
Please stop reporting on this train wreck and perhaps she will and give us all a break with her moronic dribble.
Wink, wink y'all! and everything. I've had more than enough of this idiot.
Perhaps, finally, Governor Palin understands how Barack Obama must have felt when asked over and over to respond to ridiculous questions about William Ayers raised by right-wing bloggers who were egged on by her stump speeches.....
Sarah Palin is a pox on society. The sooner she leaves the lower 48 forever, the better off we ALL will be.
Keep preaching that abstinence education, it works so well.
Sarah Palin is right. Alot of you bloggers do lie and whats worse, you believe your own lies and each others lies, then spread them as truths.
I thought I stumbled upon E! News. Keep up the smarmy talk, Sarah. That'll really help your political ambitions. No, really.
Still fighting the "us vs. them" battles...
Suppose Obama or his appointed running-mate had Palin's background: BA degree in journalism, spouse a member of a successionist party (and gave a speech via video-tape at their annual conference), a pregnant unwed daughter, on-going ethics investigation, a witch-hunting personal Reverend, ignorance of the Bush Doctrine (re Foreign Policy) and if he or the VP nominee gave such rambling, incomprehensible answers during a limited number of interviews (eg. proximity to Russia made her an expert; I "read em all") or conducted no press conferences during the entire election season. Would the liberal media have been so deferential (as requested by the RNC) to Obama?
Please CNN...stop reporting on everything she says...it / she is mindless!
bored with pathetic sarah, anonymously
please stop posting stories about her. Nobody cares what she thinks of bloggers, McCain, the media, liberals, or anything at all. Please, please stop providing coverage. Stop the insanity.
Poor Sarah.
Some of you readers never cease to amaze me. You complain that Palin should shut up and go away but you can't bear to ignore a single article about her. You even take the time to comment, that's not a sign of Palin-fatigue. I don't like her politics but she is fun to read about and I hope she keeps giving interviews. I even hope she runs in 2010 for the senate and 2012 for the White House. I will love it, and so will CNN! And you whiners too.
Sarah,
Theres a Moose waiting for you somewhere in the woods, why not go there, at least we won't have to listen to your moronic rhetoric any longer!
Seriously, how can any Republican defend her? I find it hard to believe that even the most dedicated Republican could feel good about her being such a high-profile representative of his/her party. I'm not going to question her patriotism...it's her intelligence that's suspect.
Did she just forget about her pathetic lies while on on the campaign trail
blah...blah...blah..... hands over my ears..... we aren't listening to you anymore, Sara!!!
Hockey Moms??? Probably 48 of our states have Soccer Moms, so get in touch Palin.
Snow machines??? I think they're called snow mobiles. I don't think your hubbie won a race cleaning off the driveway.
Mama Grizzley??? You ought to come to the lower U.S. and learn about real cliches that normal people understand if you're going to constantly throw cliches around.
Go away.
I think it would have been really funny if the campaign had heeded the advice that she would have given herself and let her call some of the shots.
That exploiter Tina Fey would be laughing even harder on the way to the bank.
This woman has been used and then tossed out. I am sure she hasn't heard from John McMain since. I get the feeling that the Republicans knew they would lose regardless, so they put McCain in to be the fall guy( he hasn't lost anything, he is still a senator) and let him pick someone who would give the appearance that the Republicans were serious. They picked Sarah Palin and they made a fool out of her, now she has been dumped and she is crying over sour grapes and the resentment she has towards the experience and those who put her there. Her political career I don't believe will leave Alaska as she really has no credibility.
While the U.S. in engaged in two wars which are taking the lives of our soldiers daily,
While the U.S. economy has collapsed and people have lost their jobs and pension incomes
While the world drifts further from global peace
WHAT does Sarah Palin worry about? What are Palin's priorities?
Her public image!!!!
Thank God this foolish and misguided woman from Alaska, who cannot engage in serious conversation and discussion regarding any priorities involving the citizens of the nation did not get elected to the second highest office in the Nation!!!
Afterall, who would do the REAL work of the nation on behalf of the US citizens?
Palin tells it like it is. SHe is a refeshing change from the political calculating and focus group testing that definesBarack Obama. I can't wait for 2012. Give'em Hell Sarah!!!
GOOD GRIEF... is there not something more newsworthy than this tripe?
Sara needs to stay home and hibernate.. perhaps sleep will induce some intelligence.
People remember she's getting paid to do these interviews. And the more she does the richer she will be. Obviously, it's about the money. And of course staying in the spot light.
Why is the media still giving her attention? Who really cares what rant she's on this week?
Heheheh...I love this! I love it I love it I love it!!!!
Way to go Sarah...keep going. Please, I beg you, don't stop talking and whining and acting completely pathetic.
You are your own undoing! And you're going to completely cause the entire Republican Party (already teetering on the brink) to completely implode if they are dumb enough to rely on you to be standard-bearer in 2012! So please, do us all a favor and keep it up!
Or, you could do the noble thing and shut up, get out of the way, and at least let talented people like Jindal or Crist or other GOP governors (with intelligence and vision) rebuild the GOP and bring it from the ashes.
Nahh...that's no fun...keep going Sarah! Say hi to the Russians from your patio.
Weeee
That's right Sarah. Blast the media. The same media that will cover your campaign in 2012 should you decide to run. Oh I can hardly wait. Tina Fey will never be out of a job with Sarah around....lol.
I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYONE ATTACKED LIKE SHE HAS BEEN. ALL THE LIBERALS NEED TO LET HER ALONE AND GET A LIFE. THE WOMAN IS NOT STUPID AS THE LIBERALS CLAIM.
Who cares what she has to say, Palin is nothing more then a confused Republican. She runs the most socialist state in America and has the intestinal fortitude to call democrats socialists. As a Disabled Veteran/Veteran of a foreign war, the money I get comes from a program that is based off of socialism.
please i would rather pay $5 a gallon for gas than hear this woman please remove her from our reach..............aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.
Ever since that dig "I was the mayor of a small town, which is something like a community organizer....etc. etc.", along with the rest of her nasty hateful rhetoric, I've been just waiting for her to go away – and now she won't go!!! OHHHHH Noooooo. She loves the spotlight, let's face it.
" Palin said she had adopted a philosophical attitude on the downside of the spotlight. "You have to let it go,” she said"
Sarah Palin. You said it yourself. LET IT GO. and how about getting back to working for your state? Please disappear. I'm getting so fed up about hearing about her moping and complaining about the election when she cost McCain the election.
I would have loved to see what shots she would have called. This woman is a moron.
The Republican Party has become the party of WHINERS, with Sarah Palin leading the way.
ugh, I could see my mother now, stop your whining or I'll give you something to really whine about........
Glad I took her advice, may the GOP and Sarah should also....
No, Ms. Palin, there`s not a problem with jounalism, theres a problem with your answers to journalist`....... I`ll betcha`......
Your doctor did not indicate whether or not you delivered a child. No birth certificate was supplied by you. You should stop whinning .
You are not equipped to perform on a national stage .
Why don`t you just attend to the business of your state of Alaska, and leave the rest of us alone. You are well past your fifteen minutes of fame , so please do the rest of america a big favor and just be quiet ......
P.S.,
Trigg is Bristol`s baby, and you are a grandmother two times over.......
The only thing more pathetic than the 'anonymous bloggers who lie' are the elected leaders who spend more energy focusing on other's personal perceptions or opinions than on performing the job they were elected to do.
Have you ever noticed that not even the worst of politicians or the most popular of celebrities address every published crack against them? Because people know that there is a minority of publications out there that create blasphemous headlines to sell stories.
If it is such a lie, than it shouldn't be worth your time. This is not a high school cheer squad and you are not a teenage girl. Having the last word does not equate to victory.
Wow, libs sure are an unhappy with their lives bunch. Obviously there are a lot of lib trolls just sitting around with nothing better to do than to make hysterical remarks about things they know nothing about. Typical intellectually dishonest people.
Liberals are mean.
Sarah,
There is a Moose waiting for you in the woods thats just dying to become a stew; why not go there, get lost, and at least, for awhile, we won't have to listen to your moronic rhetoric for a bit.
She is like herpes, will never go away. Why is she still in the news? Is she planning to visit the country of Africa?
Palin asks for the type of media scrutiny she gets because she handles them so poorly. She is getting a rise out of them and thus this continues to be what they love. If she just simply ignored it all it would lose its luster and go away. They can't write about something when there isn't anything to really sink their teeth into. All Palin does is make herself a mockery by continuing to open her mouth. She isn't the brightest light in the box so she should just shut up!
Sarah,
Take your own advice. THE WORLD DOESN'T REVOLVE AROUND YOU.
Palin needs to stop the finger-pointing and looking to place blame everywhere but in her own lap.
The fault is hers, a result of her overhwelming ambition. Her desire for public adoration and power left no room for anyone or anything else. She put herself and her wants before her family and those who elected her in Alaska. Hmm – shades of the "7 Deadly Sins"?
Pride comes before the fall. She'd do well to remember that.
I am not a Sarah Palin fan and voted for Obama/Biden. She isn't the brightest bulb and enough people figured that out and they lost. Now that she's no longer relevant just be glad she's not a heartbeat away from being president and let's focus on stuff that matters.
If you and the rest of the media would stop covering this whining " want to be", she might shut up. Will this blame everyone but me ever go away ?
Since when were bloggers the media? And the fact that you can see Russia from Alaska still doesn't give Palin foreign policy experience. She is so deluded over her so called credentials, it's really become sad that she has to come up with all these pathetic excuses as to why her ticket lost.
The sad thing is that somehow it happened that everyone has the whole thing wrong anyways because its not Trig's mother that is the scandal ... its the father, her own eldest son, and that is what is the real cover-up, and everyone has been fed this red herring. Yeah, Sarah is the mother, now time to tell the truth about who the father is. What I want to know is, why and how this somehow got falsely fixated on the mother instead of the father, the real scandal, that she had the child with her own son!
I love Sarah. I hope she runs in 2012.
Why is she doing more interviews now than she did when she was campaining?
You lost. Go home and shut up.
Sarah for Playboy centerfold wearing ought but her 6 shooter and a 6 pack in one hand.
WE HAVE FOUR FULL YEARS FOR HER TO SHOW HOW INCOMPETENT SHE IS- LET HER KEEP PLACING BLAME ON EVERYONE ELSE FOR LOOSING THE ELECTION. BY THE WAY HOW IS THE ARREST GOING WITH HER FUTURE SON IN LAW?
Gotta love her for fighting back. Too many just say it's not worth the fight,i.e. there's no dollars to be gained. But you fight back when the other side just wants you to step aside so they can get their buddies in. Like so many before her,most recently the Clintons and the Reagans,you fight back just to show them they can't push you aside.
When is CNN going to stop wasting time and bandwith by continuing to report on Sarah Palin. She is not a newsworthy person in any way at all.
Please your 15 minutes were up a long time ago.
You lost me when I heard the words come out of your mouth. Do you really think the people are so stupid we have the media think for us/
Get real.
I could care a lees about who the mom is, I'm more concerned about why you for the bridge to nowhere until it was political nightmare, etc etc etc.
PLease tend to your job and leave the rest of us alone.
If you are going to insult a woman's intelligence, you'd be well-served to use proper grammar. Learning to spell would help, too.
why is she such a loser, if you can't take the heat stay of the kitchen.
To all those that think the media is biased towards Palin- if the woman had anything of substance to say perhaps the media wouldn't focus so much on her whining.
I'll try again
Just when I thought you could not dumb-down the Republican Party any further...Palin comes along...Incredible
Palin behaves exactly like a junkie, spouting off on how bad something is, and all the while she can't get enough of it herself. How people like her ever achieve public office is beyond comprehension.
She is only forty-four years old, young enough to be the face of the Republican for many more years and many more elections. I wish her nothing but more press, more exposure, and more attention; she is the best thing that every happened to the Democrats.
When will you guys shut the heck up and leave governor palin alone? i don't understand why you guys have all the right in the world to talk crap about her but she can't say what she has on her mind. you are all just butt hurt because she is getting a bunch of attention and is better looking than well over half of the americans now a days and she has a handsome husband and a happy family. If i had reporters trying to dig into every single corner of my life I would be upset to. leave her alone!
I see most of the folks responding are sucked in by mainstream media and do not have the ability to think for themselves.. The media picked on her because they were caught completely off guard by McCains announcement and were made to look like the idiots they really are, and they got pissed. I predict that Obama who many seem to believe is the second coming, will be the worst thing that ever happened to the U.S. and the world. In a couple of years it will be hard to find anyone who will admit to voting for him.
Oh boy,... someone call Palin a waaaaahmbulance.
Sarah, you blew it the minute you opened your facial orifice and showed us what little you have between your ears. Now STFU and go back to your igloo.
Hey Sarah Palin.......STFU
Well here you all go, once again proving that the CNN comments section is the nesting grounds of the self righteous left wing social bigots. It just amazes me that both the main stream media and you morons think nothing of attacking Sarah Palin and her family with some of the most disgusting personal attacks imaginable. Then you are outraged over the poor parody "Barack the Magic Negro" but at the same time think it was hysterically funny when SNL accused Todd Palin of incest with his daughters. The next time you people look in a mirror realize that you are looking at both a hypocrite and a despicable bigot.
Want a little cheese to go with that 'whine' of yours lady? Thank god this lady lost, all she does is cry like a little brat.
Take some responsibility for your own losses you absolute idiot! Say hello to the druggy dealer father of your grandchild, nice family values you taught your kids there!
Please, bloggers.... 'your' is possessive.. your car your house your money; you're is the contraction for 'you are' you're dumb, you're a liar, you're not fit to lead
Thanks, I just had to vent. Your comments are good, but you're using incorrect grammar.
Sarah who?
Again she hs no specific agenda with the meda...she is sour grapes...she is the one who is looking just as pathetic as ahe did in Sept!
She needs to stay away from the media and the spotlight, she needs to focus on her family and her current position. Please stop news stories on her...weallthought she was gone Nov. 3 please no more palin news articles.....
You people are filled with such hatred. Your parents did a sorry job of raising you. It is not okay for you to say anything that pops into your empty heads. She was responding to a question the papers asked of her. I am sick of the direction American is headed and you people are the reason. No respect, no boundaries, nothing.
"alikeness"????? Can Republicans elect ANYONE who speaks English correctly??
"Alikeness"???
She needs to go back to school.
The media has colored our view of Palin with a dark and fuzzy crayon. We have come into an age where we let bloggers, late night tv comedians, musicians, and Hollywood brats do our thinking for us. That is evident from many of the posts here. Governor Palin has every right to be angry and vent. I am surprised that she is as constrained as she is.
We have a tainted media. You believe none of what you hear and only half of what you see.
Sore looser...
Judging from the article's "update", which includes portions of the Anchorage Daily News e-mail, she still has her hat and shoes on backwards. When will she end her "Pity Party"?
Ahh guys, let her talk. She's much better to look at than the Dumbo and Bean Pole that got elected, and she's not completely stupid; even a broken clock is correct two times a day! And quit questioning whether Trig is her baby: I can guarantee you if I was married to her she'd be pregnant! Heck, if I was her daughter's boyfriend, she'd be pregnant, too. Same with any other red-blooded heterosexual American male. So why doubt it? So what if there's an empty spot inside her cranium; Dubya was empty-headed too, but at least Sarah is easy on the eyes. When you look that good (especially at 44) a little airheadedness can be overlooked. After all, you overlooked it in 2004 when you re-elected Dubya, and he's not nearly as cute as Sarah!
Sarah, baby, I'll vote for ya. Please come stump at my house!
She says in the article "You have to let it go." Yet, she want. Who's the pathetic one? Go away and stay away. CNN – stop reporting on this ignorant woman!
My Goodness! When are you "Obama Kool-Aid Drinkers" going to stop
hating this poor woman (and her kids)? Your guy won the election
and you are "STILL" so full of hatred and rage for this woman, your postings almost sizzle and smoke. I wonder how angry would you be right now if Obama had actually "lost." What a bunch of
hate-filled, miserable people. It's going to be a great 4 years!
How about VP candidates who lie? Palin makes me sick to my stomach. She is an embarrasment to the country.
Sarah Palin is the figurehead on the bow of the ship of state
for the state of Alaska. Alaska really is no longer a "state".
It's a colony.
A colony controlled by the Exxon Company that thinks it bought Alaska when it dumped its filth across the shores. It had polluted the North shore earlier and the Exxon Valdez did the South.
As colonial controller of Alaska, Exxon pays the taxes for everyone.
This, in itself, inspires Alaskans to be Republicans.
Republicans, as an ideology, want someone else to pay their taxes.
This is their "creed".
They forgot one thing.
In a democracy, it's the taxpayer that pulls the strings.
Not sure which is more pathetic, bloggers who lie or Sarah Palin's desperate attempts to stay in the public eye.
Please back away from any mic or camera lady You republicans are done period
Then again the more she talks the moe republicans dont have a chance
go away lady goodness!!!!!!!!!!
For someone who seemingly hates the press, she sure spends a lot of time talking to reporters.
Will someone please drop a house on this wicked witch??? GO AWAY!!!!!
Two words: Done for.
No. Don't send her away. Let her continue ranting.
The more she says, the deeper the grave that she's digging for her own
political future. Its almost as if she's unaware of how much damage she did to her party by running for VP, while realizing that she's almost entirely
incapable of running this country.
By all means Sarah, say on!
Sarah Palin is crazy!! NO one cares about her whinning. This is just getting annoying
Poor Sarah, Poor Poor Sarah! You are so misunderstood. It seems Sarah is the one that's bored and pathetic, from the post-election blues! When anonymous bloggers lie to the rest of us how wonderful they think Sarah is, we know she won't be complaining about them.
Palin's constant ranting and raving makes her look less and less credible, at least to me. I'm beginning to wonder if she has become mentally unbalanced, or has overactive hormones–or both. Her absurd behavior only increases the negative perceptions people have of her.
She continues to damage her political future and has no one to blame but herself. I agree with the majority of the bloggers who wish she would just shut up and go away! Of course, we enjoy writing about her. Don't we? Thanks Sarah, for relieving my boredom.
To ja:
Obviously those that are "with" her are as delusional as she is. Look at you/ YOU don't have a clue!
Hey Crap News Network, enough to the Palin already. Do some work.
Let's see...Palin bashes the media, yet she's been giving interviews non-stop since the election. Sh's annoyed by liars, yet she repeatedly made false unsubstantiated claims about Obama's "ties to known terrorists" and fully embraced Joe the Plumber, an idiot who wouldn't know a pipe wrench from a plunger. She regrets not taking a stronger leadership role in the campaign. Her intellect and life experience served her well in her interviews with Charles Gibson and Katie Couric.
Stoners interviewed by High Times magazine make more sense than Palin.
As long as people respond to her, instead of hitting the ignore button,she will be here everyday for the rest of your lives.
Yeah! Palin in 2012! Yesh! Palin in 2016! Yeah! She's the bestest, most smartestest candidate around. Yeah!
I see you obot koolaid drinkers are still worried about Palin when you should be worrying about the dork that seems to want everything about him to stay hid including something so innocent as a BC
The hatred so many people still have for Palin is incredible. I'm sure if there was some way to calculate the total number of man hours and dollars that U.S. and foreign news outlets spent trying to discredit this woman, the whole world would be absolutely appalled.
Seriously, the fact that journalism spent so much time and so much money trying to dig up dirt on Palin and all they ever came up with was that the RNC bought her some expensive clothes and that she fired some dupe who wouldn't fire a corrupt cop should tell us all something.
The fact of the matter is this: if you don't live in Alaska, her decisions don't affect you, so STOP complaining. And considering her popularity there is still over 70 percent in most polls, she must be doing something right. I find it odd that so many people leaving comments here wish she would go away, then glorify a story about her by leaving comments. THAT seems hypocritical to me.
DEAR GOD AND ALL THAT'S HOLY; GO AWAY!
Who is this Palin woman? I recall someone by that name running in some ancient political campaign.
Does this woman REALLY have a job? You have to wonder were she finds time to keep up with this protracted whining.
Hey Sarah – your 15 minutes was up a long time ago – now go away
Whiner Palin, she is one of the jokes of 2008. Let's move on to some real news now.
For those of you who want her to go away, you certainly are not ignoring any of the articles that are put out there AND are taking the time to read them AND then post a comment. There are lies and misconceptions on both sides. I think she is a very "real" person with a real genuine family whose lives are now analyzed, challenged and criticized by anyone just to keep fueling the negative behaviors that some of you hold on to. She was thrown out to the media wolves by a poorly run campaign. I am feeling hopeful with Barack Obama taking office next week and that this country will eventually heal. Let's leave all that campaign cr*p in the past and let Governor Palin and her family live their lives without all this scrutiny. The election is over and we have much more important things to do as we move forward to being a better America.
Ok...... first things first, all bloggers including me for the most part, relate their views, and feelings, on a particular topic(s). I for one have never viewed a fellow bloggers story/view as the truth of truths..... If a blogger were relaying something they declare as true, as a thinking man, I'm going to go and investigate........ Palin just doesn't get it........ she messed up her own campaign, plain and simple.......now yes the media was a bit critical, but believe me, if Palin were on the right ticket, she'd have gotten America's vote, in spite of media bias...... Anyway, it's kind of crazy to talk about scrutiny, in a year where we as America have elected a African/Caucasion American as president....... Plain and simple, Obama was ready...... McCain(was)/Palin wasn't........ In my view, I believe Hillary Clinton prepared Obama for everything to come after their battle......... Her campaign left no stone unturned, while trying to convince Americans that Obama wasn't ready........If Obama wasn't ready, (and remember he was not the fav. pick to come out of the DEM party) he would have never made it past the Clinton machine........... Oh yeah doesn't Sarah pal around w/ drug dealers? Bristol's mother-in-law......lol just a friendly shot of her own medicine.
I'm not surprised at the venom coming from your bloggers?!
Civility from most Americans is low. Phew! Human Secularism STINKS! I think Mrs Palin can hold her own. Long live Mrs Palin.
The way this issue of who the real mother of the Palin baby is was explained to me is that even though Sarah was functioning as governor last spring, no photos of her ever showed her looking pregnant. Not in February, March, or April.
Along with that it's said that her daughter had taken a leave from her high school education, and was kept out of sight.
Seems to me a few photos from those months might clear up the issue.
not very smart, is she.
She has gone away. All of you just come looking for her to keep nipping at her heels. Your the ones who should get on. You all go away.
Palin has a P.H. D. in lying she's a palinlyingpathetilogist
Let me think this through. If Sarah seeing Russia makes her a foreign policy expert, I can see the moon. Does that make me an astronaut?
I do hope she doesn't go away though. The laughs every time she opens her mouth are priceless.
Go away Sarah Palin....... You need to get on your Moose and ride off into the sunset, please while you still have a few supports and your dignity.
One more try
I want to thank Palin, not to praise her, u blocks u stones, u worse than scent-less voters.
I will run for VP in 2112, for the RNC. When asked what newspapers I read, I will say, MAD magazine of course! I am best qualified in Foreign affairs because, it got so cold in northern Minnesota last night, when looking out my back window I COULD SEE ALASKA. LOL
I have self censored my censored comet.
I'm no fan of Sarah Palin, but seriously.
Listen to yourselves. You're all pathetic. If it were Obama complaining about personal attacks on his family by the media, you would be flocking to his defense, cooing sympathetically and telling the stupid 'unfair media' to go stuff it.
But because you disagree with her politically it's okay for people to say crap like that to her, and you ridicule her for defending herself? You are all the lowest of the low. A rational society has no use for people like you; you are a setback to the progress of the species.
Try some introspection.
Even President elect Obama said that "families and their business" should be off limits and refused to comment about anything to do with Sarah's family! As for her she is trying to defend her family which she should not have to do! The election is over (as many have said) and for all of those that wish she would "go away" they should stop listening and watching her every move and focus on the moves that are being and will be made from the President elect – soon to be President. As for Palin don"t worry she will be back in 4 years as a front runner, maybe by then people will be ready to focus on politics and not her family!
Sarah Palin is a living, breathing example of what remains to be fixed in America. She is a disease in a society fighting for its health and giving her the time of day only further spreads this disgusting pig's dreams of the collapse of American ingenuity and spirit.
Let's all agree, regardless of party or politics, Sarah Palin is simply bad for America. She's not a bright individual. She governs a state that has barely 0.3% of the US population living in it. Her skull to brain size is roughly proportional to the size of Alaska and its population. Let's not take this woman any more seriously than we have to. She's an insult to America's intelligence and the day that this mockery goes away will be welcomed with open arms not just by discerning Americans, but by people everywhere who are still in disbelief that this fool is a part of the government of the most advanced, wealthiest, and strongest nation in the world.
Would you like some cheese with that "wine"
Sheeeee – yuttttttt upppppppppppppppppppppp!
How do you feel about pathetic politicians who lie?
Please put on some horns and run under a helicopter in AK.
Wow! Count the number of people here who went ANONYMOUS. Seriously. If you are going to slam her, grow a pair and put your actual name.
Lies? I seem to remember Palin trying to deny the fact she had described the Iraq War as a "mission from God," even though Charlie Gibson had in on tape. Even when he confronted her with the tape, she wouldn't come clean. Palin is the truth-impaired one here.
Wow...the hatred that the left has for this woman is absolutely staggering. If you want her to "Go away!" maybe you should not be commenting on these stories and you should just be ignoring them. You are the same people telling us that we have to respect Obama because he's our President now. Yeah...how about we give him the same respect that you have shown to Bush and Palin. Will that work for you?
pls... stop talking.
Please leave Palin's family alone. She is so bruised with the terrible loss as VP candidate with no light at the end of the tunnel. I hope she realizes her mistakes and not start over the media circus again which she failed miserable during Katie Couric interview. Please Palin go away.
These bloggers are simpletons that have too much time on their hands and that love to spread GOSSIP.
In addition, these particular bloggers are left wing evil dooers with NO religion in their lives to guard their morality.
Keep proving her right bloggers!! LMAO!! You all just proved that she is indeed intelligent..more so then some on this board!! LOL!!!
This woman is a pure fool. drop dead palin, you make me sick every time I read about you. and no!!!! that is not your baby!!!! you clown go kill a turkey or moose or yourself slime!!!!!. you are finish in politics you can for get it. go visit your next door people. stay there when you go.
PLEASE GO AWAY SARA PALIN! You are so pathetic!
Doesn't Alaska need the govenor back? Go home Sarah and quit making more of a fool of yourself and of this country by speaking.
What makes me mad is the fact that it upsets her that bloggers say "terrible" things, but she will use things bloggers say to try to get elected.
She is a shady woman, she is hungry for power and desperate to stay in the public eye. That makes her very dangerous!!!!!
Sarah Palin is a liar, a manipulator, and she cheats! I have zero respect for the woman.
For all I care she can stay up in Alaska with her ignorant family and her witch hunting church. I feel sorry for the people in Alaska who have to live under that pyscho woman's thumb....yikes what a train wreck!
I find it impossible to believe that half the comments about Gov. Palin are really based upon true knowledge of her character. What you know about this woman is what the media portrayed her as. I don't know her either but I find it interesting that she is capable of being half as evil as the majority portrays her. Personal attack of one's character based upon their run for office by the opposing party is absurd. It's a shame that we have such liberal media avenues. Where lies can be protrayed as truth. If she really was such a liar she would back down and try to let it cool off. Think about it...
Please, Sarah, keep insulting your electorate. Great election strategy for 2012.
Sarah can distort and lie about others, but does not want it done to her. Her feelingsare hurt. This is about the 4th time she brought up
"Anonymous". That is the part that really bothers her. She wants to know the peoples names. Sarah what difference does the bloggers names mean to you, you can't fire them from office like you do to the poor people of Alaska. You ran on a national level, now act like a governor and a professional. If you dish it out- it will come back to you 3 fold. Remember that next time you run for office. Majority of Americans don't like you, we feel you are not intelligent. Why continue this whining, you are only giving the American public more ammunition. We get it Sarah Palin you don't like the media, bloggers or anyone else that says negative things about you.
Please I beg you, STOP. Concentrate on being Governor of Alaska
She seems to blame everyone but herself. Someone who is unable or unwilling to take personal responsibility for their mistakes is not someone I want running anything, let alone the country.
Wait....unwilling to take personal responsibility....isn't that one of the attacks republicans launch at liberals? Ironic.
Who cares? When will Palin go away? She is pathetic.
To Trish
Well said – and simply said. The more Sarah allows herself to hang around the more she permanently affixes in the minds of most people that she is just plain stupid. If Sarah has any further political ambitions, she needs to go hide for a few years, lick her wounds, STUDY a lot, take courses in public speaking and the use of the English language, and then come back and hope that the past has been forgotten – although I feel it's already too late. For my money, though, I hope she doesn't go away – the news anymore is so bad that it is a relief to be able to read some comedy on the news sites.
Not only did she use seeing Russia from Alaska as part of her foreign policy experience but she also said Russia uses their airspace so that "when Putin Rears his head" that the people of Alaska are basically America's watchdogs. I tell you that I love Alaska, its people and cultural diversity but Palin is definitely not a good representative.
Gov. Palin: Andy Warhol called. Your fifteen minutes are waaaay up.
So much for being a lipstick wearing pitbull! From what I've heard lately, it sounds like somebody needs to call Sour-Puss Palin a Waaaa-mbulance!
What a whiny little child she is.
These pathetic little people are called UNITES STATES CITIZENS! We are the voting public and she seems to not care.
The media is elite and biased. The common citizen is pathetic and bored... I guess none of us is the "real America" that counts to Palin.
She should have told the McCain campaign that she was going to call the shots? How delusional is this woman? Does she have no sense of history, government or propriaty? The vice-presedent pretty much serves at the will of the president; her self-importance is dangerous.
The Republican party should make absolutely sure that this woman is stopped. If they put the interests of the party ahead of the interests of the country, they could find they are nurturing a demogogue.
And all of them are posting on here.
To Jeannie....
How the media handled Palin was disgraceful and demeaning?
Oh come on now...Sarah Palin dug her own grave with the pathetic answers she GAVE the media to feed on. "You can see Russia from Alaska", so that gives her foreign policy experience? She couldn't even answer what magazines or newspaper she reads? She was caught in the middle of an abuse of power/ethics scandal?...
The media threw her softball questions and she still struck out! If she whines everytime her answers are torn to shreds, how would she even survive in Washington DC when her DECISIONS would be under a microscope from day one?
Conservatives love her because she is a glossed over ultra-conservative, but she is not VP or Presidential material, and never will be.
It is grotesque that Democrats would sink so low as to involve a poor Down's Syndrome baby in its attacks on Palin. I thought there was a level to which even Democrats would not descend – apparently not.
Down's Syndrome has long been exclusively and conclusively linked to advanced maternal age. With that in mind, here is a pop-quiz for Democrats. Take your time, now, no hurry.
Question #1: Who is older: Sarah Palin (hint – she is in her 40s) or her daughter (hint – she is in her teens)?
Question #2: Which of these persons is more likely to have a Down's Syndrome baby, given that Down's Syndrome is exclusively linked to advanced maternal age – Sarah Palin (hint – she is in her 40s) or her daughter (hint – she is in her teens)?
unfortunately alot of people are actually buying into this BS about the "liberal media" and elitist NE sterners and the like, i mean really these people are out there. Ill enjoy my koolaid over that meth your blazing anyday baby. Id like to see people like her stop dividing us, i dont know if she realizes she does it, maybe too dumb to notice? i dont know, but its pathetic and shes not alone. You can also say the fact that these articles on her get over 400 something responses, we are just feeding the fire. lol. Funny thing is.....all she did was answer a few simple questions (wrong) and we get this reaction???? yikes!!!!!!!
This woman is ignorant, arrogant, self righteous,devisive, rigid, hateful and unbelievably lacking a sense of self awareness. Incredibly she has support among millions of people. She is dangerous!
just disappear!!!
I believe Sarah is a very intelligent lady. Far more intelligent than those that continue to smear her. I believe the people who bash her are mostly jealous of her. Women are jealous not only of her intelligence and ability to run a State, but also her lady like mannerisms, her love of being a Mother who enjoys baking cookies, a wife who is diversified enough to enjoy hunting and fishing with her husband and don't forget her outward beauty. What man wouldn't wish to have a woman like this? She possesses all the qualities of a true woman. Reminds me of wholesome sweet Southern women.
Believe it or not, I don't believe it's necessarily her child. I'm not saying it isn't, but I am saying we certainly can't take Daily Scandal Palin's word on anything. She may have paid the doctor off to say whatever she wanted, I wouldn't put that past for her a fraction of a second. She was already found guilty of ethics violations and then tried to lie about that on national tv when she said she was thankful to have been cleared of any wrong-doing when the investigation said the exact opposite. It's a shame this woman is in charge of anything. She can't run her household, can't run her state, and thankfully won't be given the authority to be the "backup" to running this country.
can she please just go away....who cares?
we all know that sarah Palin does not know anything about politics; the person to blame is john Mccain
(sigh) please lady, shut up!
This woman is an uneducated, irrelevant, boor with a bad case of diarrhea of the mouth.
Many wish that they could buy her for what she is really worth and sell her for what she thinks she is worth ...... would go a long way to helping the economy that her party has ruined.
Palin needs to learn that most bloggers are not professional jounralists. these bloggers are the equivelent of UFO chasers and tinfoil hat wearers.
Don't get upset at the nuts, just leave them alone, they are nuts. As for questions about Trig's real mom, does she believe barack is a natural born citizen?
I mean there are bloggers constantly trying to prove that Obama was born in Africa and he's a muslim and he also has ties to alquada yet you don't hear obama complaining about things being unfair
My, my, sure are a lot of people here upset about Sarah Palin. But true, she's not very experienced. And as we all know you can't just walk right in and become president. I mean really, like some guy off the streets, who was a failure as a 'community organizer', who served in the state senate and voted 'present' more times than he voted any other way, who has ties to convicts, corrupt politicians, unrepentant terrorists, racist ministers could just come in and become president....oh wait, that's already happened.
Well, since I guess the experience issue was blown out of the water in 2008, I guess you all will have to find some other line.
She repeadtly lied about Obama being chummy with Terrorist and it wasn't true. Now she knows how it feels when the tables are turned.
I say let her keep yappin' her stupidity all over the place. We want to make sure that she has no chance in 2012, and the best way to eliminate her is to let her show everyone her lack of intelligence and hateful personality!
Palin is STILL more qualified that the two doofuses we elected. When the revolution breaks out it will be a pleasure to be on the opposite end of the scope from most of you idiots.
This is hilarious. You people who keep whining everytime she makes a comment and want her to "go away", YOU are the ones who need to go away. You jump on every opportunity to put yourself in the limelight with your silly comments. Why can't you just ignore these articles and move on to the next story? Obviously you do nothing but surf the web all day looking for stories such as this so you can voice your useless opinions.
What I don't understand is all of the negative comments aimed at the Palin woman. The best thing for all americans is to recognize that we should encourage her continued media presence in the profound hope that the Republicans will run her again in a national election.
Keep up the good work Sara I can't wait to vote against you when ever!!!!!!!!!!
well when you lie a lot...believe it or not...people find it hard to trust or believe you...and since the McCain campaign was essentially one big lie after another this is what you get...and for godsake stop complaining about people out to get you...it's not their fault you handed them ammuntion
Should have/would have, it over and Palin should take the time to go to law school.
She can blame everyone and everything else, but the truth to the matter is SHE IN CHARGE OF HER LIFE, therefore, whether good or bad decisions...she let this happen to herself. Since she didn't control her campagne and let others do it for her, this is what happens. She made her bed, now she can lie in it.
Enough already. When will this whining fruitcake go away? She was a mudslinging pit bull through the election, and now all she has left to keep herself in the news cycle is endless whining over..what else..mudslinging. I hope she doesn't plan to do this until 2012.
thou dost protest too much??
bloggers are not news or media – they are just mostly stirring the pot – cause its gives them pleasure to poke sticks in other peoples eyes....
what does she have to complain about – look what has been done to Obama – he doesn't say anything because there is one thing – The Truth will Always Stand!!
Sarah just get to work and improve yourself and quit crying all the time – you are really getting to look very foolish by calling attention to all these "matters" which anyone with any intelligence can figure out what is right or wrong or what matters and doesn't – look at the Election Results – OBAMA/BIDEN!
When is CNN going to cut the cord? Gov Palin will go to any length to remain in the news light until 2012.
Sarah Palin will go far in this world, as long as she has someone to blame whenever she does something stupid. She stated that God would decide the election and she would accept whomever the Almighty chose for our next president. I guess she meant that God is an American and a Republican. These "news stories" are the media's way to bait this woman and allow her to look like a fool again. She is the center of some universe, but not mine.
I still have not heard Palin say " well, you know I could have been more prepared to face down some of those questions, ya know." Instead constant whining and complaining. i think she is pathetic!
Aw, come on... This is the absolutely only way she has of keeping herself in the news. She wants to stay in our faces so she can run for President next election. She reminds me of "the thing that wouldn't leave" on Saturday Night Live years ago. She called people names during her campaign for crying out loud! Why do you expect her to stop now? LOL
Palin can get her witch doctor preracher to shake some juju beads over her and mumble something; maybe some better sounding stuff will pop into her head. Poof; be gone Sarah.
THIS JUST IN-
Regular Area Citizens don't care about redneck Governor's crybabying.
What's she complaining about? There will always be idiots that will question everything from a baby's real parents to the President's citizenship status. Fade back into obscurity lady.
If Sarah Palin would keep her mouth shut, the world would not know how little she really knows. Unfortunately, she keeps telling the world her unability to grasp the things that matter to Americans and the rest of world for that matter.
It is getting pathetic, and someone should privately tell her that she may have future in politics if she would quit telling the world how little she really knows abou the world.
America "Wake-up" President Bush kept this Country safe. You will under stand this after the next attack. Hope you are not where it happens, like the twin towers.
And on the economy, let the blame fall on the real maker's.
Barney Frank and Chris Dodd, they forced the banking industry to make those stupid mortgage loans that never should have been made. The day's of easy credit is over, so get use to it.
Amen.
Why is this story the lead on the political ticker? There are many more important things taking place today.
enough already with Alaska's empty headed beauty queen!!
Palin can get her witch doctor preacher to shake some juju beads over her and mumble something; maybe some better sounding stuff will pop into her head. Poof; be gone Sarah.
Stop. No more coverage of this ignorant pathetic woman who will do any thing to get ahead. No Joe nor the Sarah stupid.
Back to your old censorship again. what ever happened to free press. what a poor example of media.
“bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie.” Is right below me!
If all of you are whining about CNN continuing to cover Saran Palin, why do you continue to read stories about her? You have the choice not to read anything at all about her. But, obviously, you see her name on the storyline and continue to be drawn to her like moths to the flame.
Ja,
Breath of fresh air? what are you smoking?
Why can't SP just go away?
For some, the bitterness of defeat becomes a continious agony.
I am so glad Palin is still in the picture. It is wonderful to have a real person in politics. Remember, she harbors more executive experience than our own President elect Obama. Way to go Sarah – Keep on being real.
Hey Steve! Obama DID pal around with a terrorist, WILLIAM AYRES!
Simon, it's you Sir who needs to return to school. Your lack of proper sentence structure is funny.
Lets talk about how ugly the Obama kids are.
By the way.... If you really don't care about her, why are you reading this article. The bloggers are also not so smart. And yes, you obviously do care, because you are reading what i'm saying. Loss of words liberal bloggers?
I Feel like I am wearing a Pal-in my head!! Please, leaves us alone!!
didn't we almost have it all
LOL!!!! so glad we got BARACK instead
.
I don't want her to go away. She draws attention away from truly viable and reasonable-sounding Republican candidates. I want her to be sucking up all the oxygen and hogging the spotlight as a candidate for the next few years because in the end, no one likes a whiner. And, she excels at whining.
Whine, baby, whine.
O.k., I just have to remind everyone of how stupid she sounded in her debate when she corrected Joe Biden saying, "No, it's drill,baby drill." Ugh! What a moron. And, her obviously pre-scripted and poorly delivered "Say it ain't so, Joe" stunt was downright cringe worthy. I listened the whole debate waiting for her to use that line, and she flubbed it sooooo badly. Dang Sarah, can't you do ANYTHING right?
But, I have to say that she faked that pregnancy marvelously!
I find it astonishing that Sarah Palin will not stop complaining about lies spread about her. It sounds like what I used to hear in Junior High School.
Good thing there were no lies told during the campaign about President elect Obama's citizenship, religion, patriotism, etc.
"He pals around with terrorists" you know. Who was it who said that multiple times in public?
Let me think a minute..it will come to me......
Sarah, most U.S. citizens say "Go away". (fact) Most U.S. citizens realize that national elections are not "pageants"(fact) Most U.S. citizens realize how pathetic whining sounds (fact) Most U.S. citizens wonder how someone with so little basic or diplomatic knowledge could run for national office. (fact) Sarah, most U.S. citizens say "Go away". (fact)
Open note to Palin: SHUT-UP ALREADY!!!! No one wants to hear your inane comments. You lost big time and if there is any sense left in this world you will never again win an election.
Sounds a lot like when you were calling Obama a terrorist
Pathetic Sarah has not yet realised that she was selected and dressed up like a barbie doll to attract straight, white, male, swing voters. The attempt to attract Hillary voters was an excuse to parade her with her hair up and then her hair down.....who cares? There are plenty of qualified women (republican and democratic) who are patiently waiting in line to serve our country which is in desparate need of real leadership. Good riddance to Sarah Palin and her made-for-TV persona.
Of course Mrs Palin, its the journalist fault that you can not communicate as an intelligent person and just answer the questions straight! Shame on them! Give me a break!
Get the hook! Please stop giving this woman more attention than she deserves!
"Bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie annoy me…"
Really? Idiotic, clueless politicians who babble nonsensically and never tire of the sound of their own voice annoy ME!
Please, please, please, right-wingers, choose this lady to lead your party in 2012! She's one of the best things ever to happen for the Democrats. Not to mention her entertainment factor!
Its funny how she didnt grant any interviews while she was running & has all this to say now- instead of nipping it in the bud- she let it compound- this woman is a complete ding dong- wonder if McCain picked her so he would insure a loss- who would want the mess W has left- Obama has his work cut out for him- but we are all behind him & I know I will sacrifice to help him succeed in his historical run as our leader.
Obama Did pal around with Terrorists. BILL AYERS leader of the homegrown terrorist group Weatherman. You keep thinking Obama didnt know him, morons.
Sarah should focus on her job as Governor of Alaska and caring for her family. America loves a comeback story and she has an opportunity to make a comeback at a future date. If she really is as smart as she purports to be, she should stay under the radar and wait it out in silence!
Sarah Palin will not be the next president no matter how hard she tries or who she blames. George Bush Sr. has already stated that he plans to make Jeb the next president in 1012 and Sarah won't be a GILF (no longer a MILF) by 1016. In four years, she will be the mother of a 4 year old child with special needs and should stick to local politics or better yet, AM Talk Radio in the Morning.
Poor Sarah the world is out to get her. All of us terrorists that hang out with Obama and his friends. Sarah you continue to whine. I guess you really are the new face of the GOP. Useless thin skinned non constructive potilicals of far right exclusion. Keep up the good work, while the GOP continues to devolve.
Who cares? Why is she still in the news? She is a lightweight. Katie Couric completely mauled her. Katie Couric! She has zero chance in 2012 so lets move on.
She is a proven lyer. She better shutup!
Sarah, needs to shut up and get on with her life. She chumped herself when she started blurting out that she was more qualified than Mr. Obama. Of course Mrs. Palin thought that just because she was caucasian that everyone would beleive that she was qualified. People need to understand one thing about why Obama won. First, we could see the racism at the Mcain, Palin rally's. We could hear the arogance in her tone of voice, and finally when they went out and created "Joe the Plumber" every thing about this guy screamed "Racist Pig" and the way he tried to "talk down" to Mr. Obama. So.., Mrs. Palin the media had nothing to do with you and Mcain loosing. You guys lost from the time you opened your mouth.
Palin's ego clearly knows no bound. Her steady series of interviews since loosing in November are a desperate and pathetic attempt to remain relevant. She had her two months is the limelight and now it's over; but like the washed up beauty queen that she is, she can't accept that fact and, sadly, still craves the attention. She is too self-centered to see that every time she opens her mouth and blames others for her own shortcomings, she demonstrates that she is neither smart nor capable, only full of herself.
Were Sarah Palin the intelligent and admirable politician that John McCain is, she would do as he has wisely done: get over it and get back to work.
Well, Sara I have not heard nor seen any evidence indicating that Trig is your son. Put some medical records out there so the public can see. I did recall your mother or someone saying you usually wear/wore large clothing. No one could tell at the time if you were pregnant, and the pregnancy was a secret.
We have never seen these large clothing or anything resemble such wear. Is the baby Trig yours and Todd's or is it Todd's baby? Or, perhaps Trig belong to Bristol?
CNN please show this and where is Sara's medical report?
Truth is, Sara Palin likes the media attention. She is what McCain's staffers described her as "diva".
As Sara Palin lashes out at the media and America public hopefully she's writing the end of her story. Be gone already!
To everyone that wants CNN to stop reporting on Palin-
They report items that interest people, so if you don't want them to report on her, then stop reading the article and stop posting comments on it. Problem solved.
Sarah Palin is an arrogant moron who doesn't understand how things work in America.
CNN, please quit letting this lady, this THING, on your website. She's annoying and immature and completely out-of-touch.
she keeps running her mouth brraaaaaa braaaaaa one day some angry citizen may throw shoes at her .
anyone who's ever seen John Mark Karr in his kilt chasing tots around knows exactly who and what Sarah Palin is. think it's funny?
The poor me act is only going to dig you a bigger hole with Americans Sarah. Science has already proven that people do not put much into people who wallow in self-pity.
If anyone would know anything about lying, it's Ms. Palin. She proved herself to be a serial liar and now she won't just go away!
Sarah pals around with drug dealers.
So, the right wing freaks simply love her for her values. hahahah
1: was pregent when married
2: daughter pregent at 17, un-married
3: husband, where do I start with this traitor
4: future in-laws are drug delaers
5: lies more then a 5 year old who stole a cookie
But she is against abortion! That makes her the best thing ever! screw all this other stuff that the freaks do not care about. Pathetic.
It's time for this pathetic loser to go and do some serious reading–on economics, history, politics, evolution, and above all the Constitution.
She might learn the names of the countries that signed the North American Free Trade Agreement, and other arcane information of that sort that was far beyond her grasp during the campaign.
Or, alternatively, she could conclude that she is best suited to other types of work–like being the animal control officer for Southwest Juneau–and give electoral politics as such a permanent rest.
I love Palin!! Be brave!! Continue your way and ignore everyone here!! They are just jealous of your achievements....
I try and try, but I can't help myself, I must read these articles about that gas bag sarah palin. someone please just shoot me, so it will stop!
Sarah needs to 'get over herself' – what a narcissist!!!
Sarah Palin, is obviously hiding something, otherwise why not be forthcoming about why Bristol missed her last semester of high school, and why the refusal to answer any questions about her pregnancy?
Whatever she's hiding probably reflects poorly on her judgment and on how she's raised her daughter.
I didn't vote fo her, but gosh, the election is over, and she was put under the bridge by the media. Just because she is conservative. I have been extremely disappointed in the democratic media this year. Every woman who ran for office was unfairly trashed. Does the democratic party really stand for women? I really have to think about this now. My voter registration is now independent. Disagree with her policies ... but quit bashing women.
I am confused! All these people say they are sick of reading about Palin, but they continue to take the time to click on the links and read and post about her. Evidently they aren't nearly as sick of reading about her as they say. Thou dost protest too much!!!
99.9% of comments I read about her all say she's a nut job. Are all those people bored and lying?
This is just too painful....please do not publish anything else about Palin.
Lets move on....
I thought Govenor Ed Rendell was a windbag, but even he knows when enough is enough.
I can't believe people actually voted for this woman! Shut up already! You and grandpa lost! Get over it!
OMG. Last March or so, it was Palin, in an interview, complaining about how Hillary was doing such a disservice to women everywhere. That women are expected to be under a microscope and have to be strong to face that... and, she didn't want to pick on Hillary ( sure ) and she hated to say it... but she thought Hillary was 'Whining' too much. Doesn't this woman realize – the campaign is over, the people have spoken. If she plans on running at a later time, she should just keep her mouth shut about the past campaign. And you know that old adage.. it takes 2... Well, it's a shame that in all the interviews and clips shown since the election, that Palin has not taken one bit of the blame herself, it's always somebody else's fault..
Gary,
I believe you meant "you're" an idiot and not "your" an idiot. If you're going to breate someone for their lack of intelligence, pay attention to your spelling, please!
Most of the bloggers here don't seem to understand. These complaints aren't really about Sarah Palin. They are part of a concentrated conservative propaganda ploy about how the dirty liberals pick on conservatives. Oh my!
It has worked for them and self styled "Christian Martyrs" for years. The same thing as Bill O'Rreily's "War on Christmas". Or the phony "they are going to take away our talk radio and silence freedom of speach!" (which I never heard of anywhere until the blowhards started screaming about it every day, complaining about the Fairness Doctrine, which it turned out no one was even attempting to reinstate.) The examples go on and on. In the NBA it is called "working the Ref."
It is as phony and disingenuous as you can get but it makes the press lean over backwards to be "fair". In spite of the overwhelming preponderance of conservative talk radio running down anyone that even marginally doesn't agree with them, the fact that the "liberal media" is owned almost exclusivly by Conservatives and 65% of all reporters are registered Republicans most people actually believe the fallacy that the press picks on conservatives. As long as we buy it they will keep spooning it up.
isn't her "15 min of fame" over like 4 months ago?? Grrr... I am over her excuses!
Seriously, does anyone other than Mrs. Palin CARE about what she thinks?
Methinks the lady doth protest too much!
People should leave the Palin's alone. That her daughter made a mistake is evident. I have always found that those who are throwing stones have made as many or more mistakes in their lives. It always takes one to know one. I voted for Obama but have a daughter of my own who is 18. As a parent I know I can talk with her but if she makes a mistake I will be there for her just like Palin's were for their daughter. I think that shows a strength in character to not judge another like so many are willing to do. I work with so many kids who parents have turned their backs on their own child. It is devastating to that child and where they end up in life.
She definitely wants to keep her name out there...but this isn't the way to do it. This stupid petty stuff just confirms what we already knew. She's a wacko...
Sarah Palin is a very decent and honorable woman. Governor of the great state of Alaska and equal to the task of running the government.
Regardless of who won the election, she deserves to be treated with respect. The blogosphere has treated all the candidates poorly and had the media so confused.
The real issue here is media apathy for checking sources. CNN is one of the biggest outlets to blame.
Maybe folks should listen to what Sarah Palin is saying and hold the media accountable for false reporting.
The reason people keep asking is because you never answered nor proved any of your numerous lies and half truths. If Trig is not your son that is insurance fraud SP, once again the issue with you is ethics. The whole story smells, a 40+ woman flies 12 hours after her water braks,with a high risk preg.,then drives 50 miles to have a one month premature baby,but no records are ever found, you did not tell anyone you were preg.,daughter was out of school for 5 months before "you" gave birth. Trig was an awfully big baby @ the RNC to be premature and 5 months old ( bet he was born in Feb. or early March full term). For months we listened to you,lie and lie, and lie about PE Obama but you never really addressed all the issues around yourself. Sarah WHO BUILT YOUR HOUSE???? Was Ted Stevens you Contractor?
We just can't get enough of her, can we?
January 13th, 2009 12:40 pm ET
Your comment is awaiting moderation.
Wow how long are you and other media outlets going to give this Idiot a form? Who cares if she and her daugther are having babies at the sametime? Hillbilly trailer trash.
wouldn't give interviews during the campaign but is now giving tons of interviews, however they are with the conservatives who will go easy on her. since sarah has a degree in journalism she should know that bloggers are not the media – and as long as she puts herself in the spotlight, bloggers are not bored.
To CNN: Please stop reporting on Sarah Palin!!!!!
Thanks to the American votes, she is not one heart beat away of the presidency
That's OK CNN, keep talking about Sarah. The more we see, the worse she looks. I just feel sorry for her husband and kids...they used to live in this little town where they could party all they wanted to. Now they are forced to behave. And poor Levy's mom, she can't even be a smackhead and sell her meth without everyone paying attention.
is this woman for real? if any one is pathetic is sarah palin ,all she does is going around playing the blame game .why wont she just take some responsibility for her own mistake,no one told her to have said such things like , i can see russia from my house ,or can,t even name a single thing that she read, or the bridge to no where, so please just go away.
CNN, why are you keeping this story at the top of the Ticker? Why isn't it rotating down as the rest of them do?
The media's questions often are ignorant (or worse). But what does that say about someone who has a degree in jornalism but still can't manage to field ignorant media questions well?
Yeah, CNN: PLEASE stop reporting on this woman. She's dangerous for the country, and validating her existance with mainstream news coverage is damaging this country. PLEASE STOP!
If you idiots want her to be gone stop talking about her...every media outlet wants to talk to her..... maybe you fools should stop reading and watching the news........idiots ....and I am a Obama supporter!
Well, at least I seem to be right. Palin's future will much more closely resemble the career of Ann Coulter rather than Hillary Clinton.
One must admit she has a great following. What attracted them to her, I have no idea. When she speaks, she makes my blood boil, and I consider myself a pretty calm person. Heck, I think George W Bush is even better than her. At least, George W Bush has some humor in him. Probably it's her fan that keeps her going, just like Clinton's fan keeps her going. I am glad she is not on Obama side, because if she is, as great as he is, she will drag him down.
The more you let and idiot talk, the more nonsense they will speak, Please leave this lady alone and quit focusing on giving her limelight also paying her to speak, let focus on some serious things gone wrong in the world now
Sad that this pathetic inarticulate loser can't just go gently into the night. 9 months ago we hardly ever knew anything about the governor from AK, now we're innundated with her inanity.
I can't believe I am the sole person on this blog that has only good things to say about Sarah Palin., Oh, wait yes I can. I am thankful that
she instilled values and responsibility on her daughter. If not, she would have joined the other 4,000 babies a day that are aborted from my generation. I feel so sad to think I am being begrudged 4,000 other members of society that may have contributed in a huge way.
Well, surely if they were specially handicapped or down syndrome babies they would have no use in our "perfect" country, So, I say and think I am alright for having voted for Sarah Palin
Everybody here, please, please, go away.
Why don't you go find Obama's BIRTH certificate?
I really feel for the sensible people of Alaska.
She doesn't have a clue when to shut up! And that sentence with alikeness? I really would have hated to hear her BEFORE her journalism degree.
Talk about hypocrites. Most of you are just that. If you or a member of your family had been publicly humiliated by media distortions and lies as Governor Palin was this Fall, you would be screaming bloody murder. As for your wishes that she would go away, I've got bad news for you. Sarah is here to stay and will be a major force in politics over the next decade. If you paid any attention at all to the crowds she has drawn in political rallies (for herself and others), you wouldn't think otherwise. Sorry!
Let's see? The Queen of Wasilla left that town with a $20 million debt when she left for the Gov's office. If given the purse strings of the U.S. government (if she and John had won ) how much money would we be debt at the end of their first term? How much would inflation be? How many people would be out of a job?
Just ask Zimbabwe's Mugabe, how does 240 million % inflation sound?
Sarah, just remain in Alaska....out of sight...with Bristol's first son Trig.
At least a bored, anonymous & pathetic blogger whether lying or truthful is still several rungs up over any smirky, pompous, indignant self rightious politician on the evolutionary scale.
Hypocrite...go back to your village
The only two people still complaining about the presidential campain, and the national media are Sarah Palin, and Joe the Plumber. Mmmm, I think they need to team up for a national Hockey Mom, and Plumber tour.
WHEN will CNN stop giving this woman coverage? Does she really deserve to still be on the national stage? Ugh, so over it.
i don't know who's more pathetic.... Gov. Palin, The Media, or The Bloggers (myself included btw). I just wish we would all stop paying so much attention to Gov. Palin.....she is really not worth the time and effort.
Looks like Bozo the Clown moved from WGN Chicago to Alaska!
YES MRS. PALIN, IT IS EVERYONE ELSE'S FAULT.
YOU ARE JUST WONDERFUL, MAYBE IN YOUR HUSBAND'S EYES!
I thought she wanted to run for national office again. Apparently she only wants to insure her next defeat. Sarah, you could be spending this time actually learning something about our national government, but instead you want to make even more people dislike you. What a total fool. I guess there is no question about it now.
Don't tell me the pitbull wearing lipstick is upset by a little criticism!
Hey sarah if you can't stand the heat stay out of the kitchen. because if you decide to run in 2012 get ready for questions about your daughter's baby's daddy's momma the drug dealer. we know you all knew what was going on. levi's been with bristol for 3 years. so im sure they saw and heard about the drugs. im sure there will be questions about you BEING PAL'S WITH A DRUP DEALER.
Show us a picture of your belly when you were supposedly pregnant and we'll shut up!!!!
It is so pathetic when one does not know how stupid they are. Sarah Palin, please shut up! Media: Please stop talking about her and then maybe she would GO AWAY!
Palin' into insignificance, isn't she?
SORRY. DRUG DEALER.
Things I wonder:
1) If she feels this way about journalists, why did she ever study journalism?
2) How can she blame the campaign staff for her loss? She should ALWAYS have put herself in the leadership role rather than taking orders from them. That's job ONE. If you aren't willing to handle the reins of the campaign and take responsibility for it, what kind of VP would you be? Obviously, a poor one.
*snicker-giggle-smirk*
Aaaah, I needed a good guffaw like that today.
obviously most here do not like the Gov. have any of you thought to ask yourself why? What exactly did she do to you and/or your family that has caused you much pain and suffering? Do not hate just because she chooses to live one way and not your way. If you hate so easily and for no good reason then this country will not be able to come together as one no matter who the president is and no matter how much he begs it to be.
The fact is Palin has been secretive and uncooperative about the birth of her son. I believe Trig is her kid. But why not release the birth certificate? She lacks depth and detail and plays the victim. She is a carnival sideshow to many of us Alaskans. Hopefully she has a good year working with our legislature on state issues, quits whining about her treatment and focuses on the issues that will benefit all Alaska families and not just her own.
Actually, alikeness is a word. Just looked it up. I'm as shocked as you are. Betcha, as in "You betcha", however, is not.
New Flash!! Could the media please stop reporting on this woman, there are more important issues to resolve in this country besides her ego...
Stop showing how petty you really are Sarah,didn't you come away with nice parting gifts? Like the new 180,000 dollars spent on your clothing,that was for you and your family right?If you were a heartbeat away from the presidency, I'd move out.
oh, what ignorant people you all are, the only reason she is still slamming the media, is because they are still slamming her. unlike a democrat, she is a republican, she confronts a problem and tackles it head on, she takes action. now granted some of the things she said are quite absurd, but much of it was taken out of context, when all you people watch is what the liberal media puts out, of course ur gonna think she has no credible things to say. you are all ignorant, it amazes me, i fear for our nation when we have people this outspoken who are so idiotic.
Pathetic. 'Nuf said. Oh, sorry, and self-deluded (as usual).
News Flash!! Could the media please stop reporting on this woman, there are more important issues to resolve in this country besides her ego...
so,i lied a couple of times. sue me. i believe you do wear baby polar bear mittens away from the cameras, tho.
She sings a musical scale- that has only one note -ME. And that opera is definitely over.
Perhaps in 2012, Sarah Palin will have attained more education and experience in the areas which she is currently deficient. As long as she is governor, she will not have access to foreign trade decisions as that is the responsibility of the Federal Government. I therefore suggest that not only does she enroll into a Graduate Program in International Relations, but focus also on global economics, history, educational administration, business administration, geography, philosophy, communication skills, comparative religion, psychology, community services & development, race relations, native american issues, hispanic issues, and ethics. If she accomplished this, she should be a qualified entry candidate for the 2012 Presidential pool for the Republican Party. I am a Republican and I approve this training.
Wow, this is unbelievable. She has a family and is governor of Alaska. Yet, she still seems to have too much free times on her hands to constantly follow what the media and others are saying about her. Plus she has enough time to clobber anyone who says anything critical about her.
She seems to be a very bitter person with a low self esteem. Sarah, move on, the election has been over for three months. Stop being so defensive about every little thing.
Sarah Palin, please shut up. You lost (thankfully) so no one really cares if you would have had a say or not in things. O yea, CNN please stop covering her, she is a waste of news.
If Sarah Palin would only comment on national issues (I don't really believe she has a clue..) and stop whining and grating on people's nerves, maybe the bloggers would stop "lying" on her. The more she shows her ignorance, they more they will continue.
Bloggers are real jouranlists? From the movie So I Married An Axe Murderer:
Charlie Mackenzie: Hey Mom, I find it interesting that you refer to the Weekly World News as, "The paper." The paper contains facts.
May Mackenzie: This paper contains facts. And this paper has the eighth highest circulation in the whole wide world. Right? Plenty of facts. "Pregnant man gives birth." That's a fact.
To those who want her to go away...why do you keep responding to everything she says? You are the people who keep her in the news. And I'm amazed at how intelligent all of you are (those that beat her up) if only you were in charge.
She is as stupid as Bush is ignorant. Thank goodness McCain ran a terrible campaign and Obama was savvy enough to win!
I think PALIN stands for Please Arrange for Less Information about this Nincompoop.
Enough already!
I wish that when this woman gets up to speak and there are reporters about, ALL of them, simply turn their backs and walk out. What an IDIOT!!! This is one of the worst of 2008. Sarah Palin should have stayed in the dark, just like she proved to the world that that's where she has been living.
Too bad "lock jaw" is a thing of the past....
Wackoo, Wasilla hilibily.....em .. em...
I finally get it.
The Republican strategy for 2012 is to pay for MSM airtime to keep Palin in the headlines, in the hopes that Americans will break down in sure frustration and boredom, and recognize that she really is the next great hope of the GOP. In business, they call it promoting a person to their highest level of incompetence.
These comments provide excellent support to her remark. Let's see: Shut Up! Hatemonger! Hypocrit! Hillbilly family! Narcissistic fruitcake! Uneducated woman! Your an idiot (sic, my favorite!), Queen of Lies! Whiney little hypocrit! Promotes stupidity and suffering.
Hmmm, none of these charges are ever substantiated by any facts or examples, but rather is just the "whining" of looney libs. The libs get very frightened and threatened when a capable conservative begins to gain popularity, and then they grab their favorite (only) tool – personal destruction and ridicule. They can't see the folly and hypocracy of their own arguments when they turn around and then support someone totally unqualified, inexperienced and inarticulate, such as Caroline Schlossberg. It os quite pathetic when you can't participate in a reasoned debate, but can only squeal. A symptom of decades of failed liberal education policies...
I think we should step back and try to understand why we are so mad at this woman and why we (and the press) get the secret "car accident" thrill when she goes on again and again.
She represents to a lot of us the incompetency that our political process produces. She also represents the seemingly indelible polarization that political parties (and the national media) have infused into the election atmosphere.
And we don't like it. And we don't know how to change it. So we look at Palin and see George W. Bush in heels: limited in intelligence, stubborn in ideology and absent of humility. We (most of us) wouldn't have picked either (or Harry Reid, or Giuliani, or Cheney, or Pelosi, etc.) to run a neighborhood bake sale, let alone our political processes. Yet there she is– the governor of a state. How could someone so completely unqualified obtain that position?
So instead of just watching her slow motion train wreck over and over again, we should channel our animosity into the work we individually need to do to account for what are really our own mistakes. After all, the Bush travesty, the environmental tragedy, the economic calamity are very much our own faults because we bought the lines of B.S. we were fed and just kept consuming into obesity.
Ultimately, WE'VE convinced the Republicans to become the ridiculous political party they've become through acquiescence and denial, beginning with our unfortunately kind views of Reagan's administration. Or do we forget that his administration dismantled environmental protections, deregulated those industries now seeking bailouts, fostered the currently egregious income gap, sold weapons to Iran, and sold WMD to Iraq. And the Democrats will probably do the same over the next twenty years.
So instead of pummeling Palin with disrespect (which, I know, she pretty much deserves) we should be working on changing the tone of discourse and petitioning the media to do the same. Because right now, criticizing Palin is like criticizing the cook in charge of the buffet on the Titanic.
Why did the media spend more time investigating Palin than they did Obama? Palin's life was an open book. Her past was well known and well documented. She had a long, easily verifiable, bland history.
Obama's past is murky at best, yet the mainstream media did very little original research into his background. More time was spent on Palin smoking MJ (which was legal in Alaska at the time) than Obama's cocaine usage and/or dealing. More stories were out there regarding the Alaska Ind Party and Palin that Obama's frequent Marxist/Socialist connections. Palin was labeled "unqualified" to be VP when the only thing Obama ever ran were his campaigns.
You people have allowed yourselves to be manipulated by your peers and by the media.
BB
Spiro Agnew said alot of things that sounded similiar......... he couldn't see Russia from his house though
Why doesn't everyone start sending emails to her office. I know she won't read any because she is too busy whining but we can overwhelm her offices 20 megabyte server and dial-up internet.
This from the woman who accused Obama of "palling around with terrorists" and who made a variety of other disgusting remarks in a brutal race.
This is a woman desperate for attention who won't let go of the spotlight. It is pathetic. Can we please make her go away and move on? WE DON'T CARE!
Sarah, get a clue. The only one perpetuating the media coverage is you. Please go away and leave the rest of us in peace. Good ridance.
What is most pathetic are all of you that say on one hand "just go away, no one cares about you, you are not newsworthy" BUT on the other hand you took time from your life to read the article and post a blog. You are the people that are keeping her in the news.
Did any of you bother to watch the only vice presidential debate??
Meanwhile, Joe Biden doesn't know how many letters it takes to spell JOBS...What year the stock market crashed, who was President at the time and that people were not watching television in 1929! Good ole Joe even invited folks to "Katy's Restaurant" in Wilmington so that they could have a beer with locals and listen to the problems they face...just as good ole Joe does. UHHH turned out Katy's restaurant closed down almost 20 years ago. AND Sarah Palin is THE idiot???
I just threw up.
She will never be president because she is too polarizing. But if she wants to be part of something special nationally then she should resign gracefully and do a lot of homework on the issues, domestic and foreign. Even her fellow republicans are saying the same thing. And I'm not even a Palin supporter but that's what she needs to do. Disappear and come back as a knowledgeable person.
Did she really sell a plane on Ebay? And she has the nerve to call other people pathetic liers.
I know things are slow right now, but Palin? Really? Surely there's a small dog who saved a drowning blind man somewhere you could report on...
OMG why are we still talking about her? She is not relevant and really she never was! We all knew she didn't have a shot in Hell at being VP. People didn't fall for her then and they don't fall for her now. CNN and the rest of the media should stop calling her. Give it up. We need to look towards the future and focus on the next four years and how we can get out of the messes we are currently in. Time to let Palin go in peace, media.
Looks like the pit bull with lipstick on her face is more of a chihuahua with mud on her face...hey Sarah, a little whine with that sauteed moose?
"Joe six pack" needs to give PP, (Poor Palin), five of his beers, and a crying towel. Here is a woman who lies like hell about other people she runs against, and yet whines like hell when someone makes any comments she feels are inaccurate about her?
I won't quote the anecdote about the kitchen, but we all know what it is. The USA is not comprised of Alaska alone. And when PP runs for national office, there are far more intelligent viewers at a national level. All the cute "I betchas", winks and smiles, etc, only go so far.
You Palin-Bashers need medication! Please make an appointment immediately with your physician and/or therapist so you can get help for your maladies. For anyone to HATE someone as much as you seem to hate the Governor (and any of us like her) is really sad and worrisome. Do you realize that many millions of voters in America chose McCain/Palin. What? Do you think we are all deranged? No, we saw quality. Please don’t lord Obama on us and give up your quest to demean Palin, McCain, and anyone else who disagrees with your ideas. It is our country too and we intend to stay. Not only stay, but fight for what we believe in and for the future of our country.
I'm sure this dingbat doesn't even know what a blog is. Yet she whines about it presumably because the bloggers are in fact truth-tellers. Bored? Probably, Sarah. You bore us all to tears by this juncture. Pathetic? Pot, kettle, careful about names. Just shut up and go away already. The more you whine, blather and blubber, the less likely you are to have anyone interested in your political career. So, on the other hand, hey, keep it up, Barbie. Your current behavior is the surest way to make SURE you never end up on a national ticket again! We prefer at least a little dignity and maturity in our elected officials. Will Rodgers' advice was meant for you: "Never miss a good opportunity to Shut Up."
She's a fool. What do you expect? Ignorance is bliss.
This has got to end. Really, with no facetiousness, there should not be reports on every person Palin slams. Am I being unreasonable by asking this? Can CNN at least maybe put out a statement as to why stories like these are being posted? Maybe I just don't get it.
End it, pretty please. The next time we should even hear about her is if she does something stupid or stupendous in Alaska that affects the homeland or if she runs for the Republican primary Senate seat against Sen. Murkowski.
What part of "go away, we don't care" does she not understand????
Boy for someone who says you just have to "let it go" she's having a really hard time letting it go.
CNN – the most trusted in NEWS!!!! This woman is not news.
Hasn't she learned yet that less is more. Shut your mouth already and go help your kid apply for medicaid and food stamps.
(sigh)... another day, another public whine from Governor "Thanks but no thanks". Must be a slow news day...
7 days till the end of the Bush administration.
Ya know these hics (what up Joe T. Plumber) will go away if we stop paying attention to them. It should have been obvious months ago that they don't know anything. They're still around because we fail to ignore ignorance. Sarah Palin's attempts at substance when asked a question on camera is the definition of pathetic.
From her perspective, the only thing worse than bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers writing about her is bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers not writing about her. (Sorry, Oscar.)
I cannot believe that CNN would publish all the netigative blogs you call them. Were there any pro Paelin ones . Being Vet of WW2 I Believe that Cnn was unfair during The Campaign, If they were doing this during WW2 ,Ibelieve we would have seen a Nazi OR Communist Europe . How about Giving Every bit of News a fair Shake...
I guess female liberation has come full circle in the US now that we have our own dumb, lying, sleezy poor excuse for a politician. I only wish our truly wonderful gender role models were able to get the press this "appeal to the worst in us" woman is still getting, months after her 15 minutes of fame should have run it's course.
On the other hand, Palin and her family, do offer a "Jerry Springer" like diversion from the problems we are facing from the Republican's reckless running of the government into our current abyss.
And, oh by the way, Ms. Palin, the reason it matters that Trigg is your grandchild rather than your child is because you insist on thwarting sex education in schools while demonizing gays. You are the one who parades your children and their exploits in front of us, using them for politcal fodder.
You can tell she is not used to criticism. She has very thin skin and every little word leaves a great wound on her ego. You can also tell that she is the sort who can never admit she is wrong, even to herself. She is always right. Everyone else is always wrong.
On another note, someone at CNN has a really big crush on her and can't stop taking notice of her every little movement or word.
please stop reporting what she says and she will go away
she has no credibility or values except blaming others.
She could not be more on the money and CNN is right square in the middle of it – honoring Obama's request to not bring family (his wife) in to it and then rabidly going after Palin as if the know their audience is so stupid they won't notice the difference! Journalism is dead and CNN reflects that 100%.
Is this her way of keeping some sort of attention on her?
as opposed to bored, anonymous Governors that have nothing better to do than hold interviews and press conferences. Nice work picking a local paper this time. I'm sure they didn't ask you any tough questions like "what color is the sky"
Bravo Palin.
Somebody please show Sarah the open window!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yah know the window she is always looking for. Don't go away mad Sarah.....just go away!
I'm amazed at the number of people wondering with Palin will "go away". How can she go away when the one-sided biased liberal media keeps shoving microphones in her face? Or when her local paper calls to quadruple check the natural mother of her son? Give me a break. If you want her to go away... write your editors – we don't have journalists and reporters anymore – they all write and report their "opinion", their editorial.
The only thing that keeps me at peace is when you liberals call into a conservative radio show and can't even answer 1 question about what Obama has accomplished in politics.
Why are we still giving any attention, media or otherwise, to this woman? Stay in Alaska and rule there.
SARAH I'M NOT A LIAR. I TELL IT AS YOU PUT ITOUT. OK. BE CAREFUL WITH WHAT YOU SAY. IT'S NOT WHAT GOES INTO A MAN THAT RUINS HIM OR HER,IT'S WHAT COMES OUT AND WHAT IS COMING OUT FROM YOU IS TRASH.
must be that barracuda in her that won't shut up!
If this is the most important thing she has to do after "LOSING" and if this is the most newsworthy item CNN can publish, nobody can save us! Sarah is pathetic and it would not surprise me if she is not mentally unbalanced.
Real leaders don't whine. Real leaders don't spend time addressing silly little blogger issues. Did Obama jump up and down in frustration when he was accused of being a Muslim, a terrorist, gay (yes, someone accused him of being gay), and a host of other silliness? Nope. Palin can't seem to understand that the more she complains about non-issues, the more she becomes a non-leader.
Sure, there are those among Americans who, to this day, think Palin is a wonderful woman, intelligent, and savvy. Those people are just as incredibly stupid as Palin.
Palin knows that her only hope is to demonize the press and make herself appear to be the victim. She's too ignorant to understand that without the press on her side, her political aspirations are a waste of everybody's time. Lately, she has chosen to make a big issue out of "Trig" because it makes it look like the press is picking on a helpless infant. She says, "Go after me, but leave my family alone." Well, she's the one who keeps bringing it up. What we're seeing here is a person who is incapable of doing the damage control necessary to repair her own image. The smart thing would have been to focus on her job as governor for a few months and help the public forget what a mess she made of the campaign. Instead, she keeps trying to insert herself into the news day.
BE A HOCKEY MOM AND STAY IN ALASKA.
She wants us to see the cross she made and is hanging on.I feel so sorry for her.Shes getting a nice job as anBig Oil lobbyist after her term is up though,she has alot of experience taking their money.
And this is the woman that wanted to be VP of the USA, and some people really, really wanted her to be also. Americans consider yourselves lucky she is back in Alaska and not representing your country in the world.
Palin is dangerous and yet still a joke, but you CNN need to stop giving her so much coverage. Granted, she's fair game and juicy fodder, but she's irritating, and even her quoted words in print grates on the nerves like chalk on a blackboard.
Shame on you John McCain for inflicting this woman on the human race.
wasn't she a journalism major in college? the irony must be lost on her, but it sure isn't on me.
Palin it was incredible that you boarded a plane being in labor. eight hour plane???????????? what were you thinking???? if you looking for answers..........is only one, poor judgment.
Personally I think the Republican Party is nothing but a bunch of pranksters who're trying to see how stupid a candidate they can pick for President without the public noticing.
George Bush was simply a joke they played on the US and I'm sure most of them didn't think they could get away with it. Imagine their astonishment when he actually won.. twice.
And you know one of them is now sitting at the back of the room saying "I think we can go worse..." How else do you explain the possibility of Palin running in 2012?
CNN I beg you please make it go away. No more Palin. She is more annoying than the energizer bunny. The only time we want to read or see anything about Palin would be in the pages of PLAYBOY or Field & Stream!!
Palin..Omarosa...some people just won't go away.
For all of you calling for CNN to stop reporting on this, just look at the # of comments this gets v. other articles on the political ticker. People are just as fascinated with Palin – VP candidate as they are with Palin – Sore Loser. The press reports what we find interesting and engaging. Apparently, Palin is both.
In her defense, I must say "She's really cute"
If the media would stop covering every trite,innane comment she made and just ignore her, she might just disappear, and isn't that what we want?
Ms. Palin appears to be in permanent denial. Many did not vote for her because they checked into her record, and were not at all impressed with their findings. Her behavior and comments on the campaign trail were vituperative, and channeled the fear and hatred of McCarthyism…they were not in the least presidential. This posturing of hers is becoming rather obnoxious.
I don't know who is more stupid at this point: Sarah for whining about the media or the media that continue to give her press for her whining.
Media: Let her go! Here time is over! We don't care.
Sarah: Keep whatever integrity you may have had and stop.
My gosh.. this woman is like a pimple that just wont leave my face.. every time I turn on the TV or read the news she is there and just reminding me how close to intelectual distruction we were as a nation and as a world. I would love for Sarah Palin to simply go back to Alaska and be Gov there. She sounds like a angry bitter person on a vengful rampage... Mrs Palin the election is over. Get on with life..
Oh Now, Sarah, Dog Gone It, Here you go again. Shucks, it sure takes one to know one. Maybe if you would just go away and quit talking to the media, all the Bad people would just leave you alone. Go back to your doublewide and fry something up!
It's unfortunate that this "big fish in a little pond" was arbitrarily thrust right into the big pond to help capture the religious extremists vote .. which, of course, she did handily. What is very fortunate is that her campaign of fear and defision failed miserably when faced with hope and unification. If she learns nothing else from her experience, I certainly hope she learns that! I think she's to be more pitied than scorned. She has many skills, perhaps, but being a heart beat away from leader of the free world was NEVER one of them.
Frankly, it amazes me that media still gives her a platform.!
Yaybe if Palin had not tried to actively pretend that she wasn't pregnant with Trigg she would not be under so much scrutiny from the media
Sounds to me like this is all true. Democrates are such babies. No backbone what so ever.
Oh before I forget the four MILLION REPUBLICAN voters who stayed home and did not vote for that POS McCain will be out voteing for whomever the GOP nominee is next time after NoBama runs the country in the gutter.
Funny, she never seemed to mind the Muslim terrorist socialist rumors about Obama on the blogosphere. Seems to me she stoked 'em up so they'd keep on comin.'
She still doesn't get it. We don't care. She is not interesting to many people. She is not ready for the national stage. The more she speaks the more it is obvious that she really does not represent any one. There was a great editorial cartoon in the Monday, January 112, New York Daily News shown Ms Palin with a rifle, muttering all her comments and a moose standing up, covering its ears, saying "Just shoot me!" Even the Alaska moose have had enough of her.
Sarah, Sarah...when will she ever take responsitility for the reason things did not turn out for her as a V.P. She is the reason. Not Katie Couric, Not Saturday Night Live. If she had not given the dim witted material, they would have had nothing to play on. She continues to make a fool out of herself. It is time to shut up and go away. I for one am disgusted by your constant whining and carrying on.
At it again HUH? Just can't get over it? All you do is make your self look more bitter and silly doing this. Forget ever running for anthing in the lower, you just keep cooking your own goose or moose or whatever.
sara, the reason you were not "calling" the shots was because of your inexperience and your consistent fumbling & stumbling. had you had just a fraction of the experience of say biden or romney, then maybe you would've called more shots.
if you really wanted sarah palin to go away you'd stop leaving all these comments. if you ignore it, it will go away.
Since when do VP candidates call any of the shots on a ticket? You're told what to do, then you do it. If you don't like that scenario, don't take the job.
I feel that Ms. Palen shoule "Man Up", and take her blows just like any other politician. She is not the Lone Ranger and the criticism she received is actually pretty mild compared to the criticism she was throwing out during the campaign. For being a Christian she is really quite mean and hateful in her comments about others. She does not take responsibility for her actions or words, exaggerates her accomplishments and down plays her limitations, she is not the most truthful candidate, and has become a publicity hog over any issue she can think of.
It is time for Ms. Palen to step down from the stage and let someone more deserving have the limelight for a while.
Congratulations America! Last November we had a choice between an uplifting message of hope from Obama/Biden or the synical message of fear, accusations and lies from McCain/Palin. Luckily, this time—as opposed to 2000 and 2004—Americans saw right through it.
In the 2½ months since the election, the global economy has continued its downward spiral, the world continues to see violence and Sarah Palin continues to act like she was somehow wronged and not at all responsible for her party’s woes.
Think about how different things could be, seriously. Imagine how we as Americans, and the world, would feel today if next week we were instead swearing in McCain and Palin to fix the Bush disaster.
McCain admitted that he wasn’t an economy man—he’d still be bragging that he supported the surge while over 2.5 million Americans lost their jobs. Palin, although she doesn’t admit it, doesn’t know much about anything. We wouldn’t be very hopeful about next week—or our nation’s future. There wouldn’t millions of Americans making the pilgrimage to Washington to see a McCain/Palin Inauguration. There would only be despair.
Now a message to Alaskans, stop this lady dead in her moose tracks—don’t vote her into national office (the Senate) where she would get a platform to spew her lies, ignorance and shrill voice that drives even my dog nuts!
Sarah...Girl......."It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt."
This woman is so starved for attention. She really is full of herself. Why doesn't she just do her job, or raise her family, or find something constructive to do and stop the boo-hoo'ing already? I'm getting sick of her whining.
Okay, first of all, it was a Saturday Night Live skit where the actress portraying S.P. said: "you can see Russia from my house."
Pathetic liberal bloggers and wanna be bloggers posting on CNN
Oh, and this is for you too..the moderator...that is tempted to delete this post!
The more you talk Sara, the more you validate our stance.
"Alikeness"?
Since when is THAT a word?
Please, somebody, put this woman out of her misery.....and ours.
Is this coming from the same woman who claims that she said "Thanks, but no Thanks" to the Bridge to Nowhere? It scares me to think that she could have actually been our next Vice President. Thank Goodness!!!!!
Who is this Palin lady? Why is it I have forgotten or don't remember her but the stories continue to be written about someone so insignificant.
Cnn..Please don't waste anymore time with this loser Palin...lets move on to bigger things.
CNN Please post my entry..thank you.
Dear Mrs. Sarah Palin;
There's this old saying that comes to mind:
"It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt."
Angie January 13th, 2009 2:37 pm ET
SORRY. DRUG DEALER.
=================================================
Now she is a drug dealer. Yeah, the left never spins things.
Angie,
Ignorant people like you will end this country.
Sure Sarah, blame issues with your credibility and your record on the media. It is time to realize the truth; that you were utterly unprepared for public office south of the Canadian border.
Interesting that there is so much focus here on her campaign gaffs, presumably to refute the obviously biased savaging she took at the hands of the media and blogosphere. It's called the argument of the straw man. Argue that she made gaffes and mistakes, perhaps that she's simply not qualified, thereby proving that the media and blogosphere were fair and balanced in their reporting. Ignore the fact that the press delved into her personal life in an almost unprecedented way, asked her pointed questions no other candidate was asked and dwelled on her lack of experience while promoting a highly inexperienced presidential candidate. I didn't like her as a candidate, but the lack of balance and extreme rationalization in these comments is amazing.
I have the world map in front of me. Guess I will run for president in 2012.
SHUT UP DO YOUR JOB AS GOVENOR. YOUR HOOKED ON THE LIMELIGHT YOU OPPROTUNISTIC HIPPOCRITE.
yeah... palin should go away..... because of stupidity?
yeah!! lets get someone else in the white house this is smart... like mr clinton? someone so smart they will desecrate the oval house with adultery? someone who's excuse is "well it depends on your definition of the word "is"? someone who has to "lie" and say i did not have sexual relations with that woman. YEAH!! Lets get someone smart in there. Liberals seem to have such a short memory.
The way things are going, she won't win re-election in Alaska
Please, please, please Sarah Palin go away forever. We're begging you. You have nothing to add, you are not interesting, and except maybe for a few bored housewives nobody cares what you have to say, what you think, or who the fathers of your children or grandchildren are. And to the media, how long do you continue to stick a microphone in front of someone's face when they have absolutely nothing of interest to give you? Please, put us out of our misery. Help Palin go away by leaving her alone.
From Palin's own lips:
“Even hard news sources, credible news sources — the comment about, you can see Russia from Alaska. You can! You can see Russia from Alaska. Something like that — a factual statement that was taken out of context and mocked — what you have to do is let that go."
An example of someone who not only refuses to "let that go", but insists on standing by her utterly imbecilic remarks. Russia is only visible from an island off the coast of Alaska– an island which Sarah Palin has NEVER set foot on.
Sarah, I for one believe that Trig is your son. I also believe that you did and will use anyone including your parents, husband, and children to try and promote your future in politics. If I remember your bio...you knew that Trig was going to have Down's syndrome. With that knowledge you flew down to Texas to give a speech at the Governor's meeting. Before your speech began your amniotic fluid started to leak. Since this was your 5th child you should have known that labor would not be for away. But you stayed until you could deliver your speech and instead of going to a hospital you flew another 8 hours back to Alaska. As a mother you were more intested in yourself than the health of your unborn child. Please stop thinking of more ways to blame anyone but you for your loss and go home and be the mother you haven't been in quite awhile.
Mccain won't even support her candidacy in 2012... "nuff said"
You have to be some kind of stupid to think Ms Palin is any kind of national leader – she's comedic relief – nothing more.
(BTW, to those who do think she's "a breath of fresh air" or a potential leader...you need to reevaluate your standards – being vertical and breathing just doesn't cut it.)
Keep it up Sarah!! I hope you get so far under their skin that they scratch themselves bloody! You guessed it!! I'm not a liberal!
I can't really defend Palin, but my comment is about as close to a defense that you can get. I am very glad that she showed up when she did. There was actually a chance she could be our vice president in a few days. After what we have been through with W and his "elections" I think it shows that at least a majority of Americans have learned our lesson. Unfortunately, there were many Americans that voted for that team. Just think how bad off America would be if that had happened. That would be a clear indication that America would never be the same with right winged nuts in control of the country for yet 4 more years. It shows that America is healing after 8 horrendous years. Let her run all she wants. I hope she's their next presidential candidate. Unless she's running for president of Alaska she will lose. She probably won't go away until she does go through several losses.
I read this article because I needed a bit of a laugh today and that is what it was good for. It's not newsworthy, it's pure comedic value. She does need to just go away, but the laugh I got today did put a smile on my face.
My wife and I are Republicans. Because Palin would have been a heartbeat away from the presidency, we checked into her record. Not an easy task, mind you. You have to research lawsuits; budgetary cuts and increases, and earmark requests – both for Wasilla and the state of Alaska; position papers and articles written by her special counsel; interview footage of Palin, debate coverage, speeches, and a host of other things. Keep in mind - this is documentation that tracked her record before she was tapped by McCain to be his running mate. Anyway, our findings weren’t good – kind of scary, actually. What truly amazes me is that people in the media just weren’t asking the right questions.
In the final analysis, Ms. Palin drove away more people from the McCain/Palin ticket than she attracted by the time Election Day rolled around. Had McCain handled his campaign differently, and not behaved so erratically during the advent of the financial crisis, he just might have won the election. The GOP had better come up with better leaders, or suffer even further attrition until only the uneducated extremists and religious nut-cakes masquerading as Christians are left. We are cycling downward into a third-rate nation. America deserves better.
I really even hate to comment on Palin, due to the fact she will only show up on yet another article. Palin needs to gie it up...her 15 minutes was over long ago. the people in this country were not then and still are not impressed with her. she is egotistical and pathetic. the state of Alaska got a real eye opener and she best be getting busy trying to keep her position as govenor, as i do think she will lose in any attempt to stay seated.
Please stop reporting what this lady says. It does not matter unless you plaster it all over our screens!
She is so whiny. If she truly wants to run for president (and be the GOP's sacrificial lamb) she needs to shut her mouth and go away for four years. Doesn't she realize that the country, and the world, are not very accepting of whiny women? Put your big-girl panties on, deal with it, shut up and go away!
WHO CARES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
'bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie'
Funny, coming from one of the most brazen liars I've ever seen. Hypocrite.
"The Alaska governor, who has granted a steady stream of interviews since Election Day"
Sarah to media: "I hate you. I NEED you!" Hypocrite.
She's proving that McCain's people were right to not let her talk to the media.
PALLIN/PLUMMER 2012
THEY ARE BOTH THE FAIL PRODUCT AND LEFT OVER OF MC SAME CAMPAIGN AND IT IS ALL THE GOP HAVE.
Bloggers that lie?? Please tell me this is not true !!!!
Next you'll tell me that Caroline Kenndy should be given a senate seat based on her qualifications and not her last name and money.
If CNN stopped reporting on Palin what would they report on? That Obama's cabinet is full of Clinton re-treads, socialists and marxists? They can't do that, you all know that.
Please give us more of the news that fit to obfuscate.
So if people could care less that must mean that we have the "BORED, ANONYMOUS, PATHETIC BLOGGERS WHO LIE "right here.
How fitting losers!
Sarah Palin
Needs to just stay at home in Alaska and do her job. She never really had anything to say important to matters concerning the american people. I look at her as a glorified Mother who happens to have lucked her way into a govenorship position by tell home grown webs of crap.
Every political campaign has its lies. The smart politicians know how to deal with it and get on with the real business at hand. Like I said, the "smart" politicians get on with the real business at hand. Sarah, you keep showing us where you fall in the mix.
Governor Palin has 4 years leading the State of Alaska to demonstrate to the press and anonymous bloggers that she has the ability to lead at the national level. Personally, I don't think she can do it but that is MY opinion now. As much as she dislikes those publically dissing her, they don't have to like her. If she wants to remain in the public spotlight she has to prove them wrong. This whole "who is the Trig's birth mother" issue is neither important nor necessary. No one can question her devotion to her family. She is the birth mother, she isn't, Trig is adopted. Who cares!!??? It looks like she loves him and that is all that is IMPORTANT. I don't agree with most of her politics but I know she is not going to leave the national spotlight. She does not want to and the Republican Party as a whole probably won't LET her. Personally I hope she stays in Alaska. What I don't like about her is that she BELIEVES her success in local politics translates into the ability to lead a nation. I think the saying goes, "If my looks get me in the door, god help them once I'm inside". I think she has used her looks to sidestep a lot of scrutiny. Those NOT impressed are focusing on her blind ambition and lack of tolerance and she is fighting back the only way she knows how; playing on the sympathy of those that don't look beyond the packaging. Hoping that their voices will drown out the criticism.
Hey Caribou Barbie go get a life!!!!and please do Alaska a favor;leave politics for good!!!!!Your stone age mentality represents gross ignorance.No one needs a fool like you!!!!!Get lost moron!!!!and leave the animals in the wilderness alone!!!!Focus on the animals in your on family!!!You are beyond disguisting!!!!!
Does Sarah Palin go out of her way to be annoying? She's like a discordant bell constantly clanging! Enough already.
CNN wants Gov Palin and joe the plumber to just go away ,WHY? because they are conservatives who tell it like it is (the truth) its the same reason criminals like the dark and wish the daylight would go away too
Why doesn't CNN cover some Republicans that matter right now? Sure, pick her back up in the national media in 2 years, but do we really have to continue to see this stuff? Aren't there more important things going on in the country?
There's no way that she is going to be able to keep this up till 2012.
McConartist hatchett January 13th, 2009 2:36 pm ET
Show us a picture of your belly when you were supposedly pregnant and we'll shut up!!!!
****************
This is why she feels that she needs to defend herself because of idiots like this. Did anyone ask to see a picture of Michelle Obama pregnant?
"If I could give myself advice back at the begining" can be said another way... if I had had a single ounce of true election experience I would have grasped the benefits and consequences of my actions and the advice I was given by the McCain campaign... Did she just kinda, sorta, maybe admit she was in over her head, kinda like a deer in the headlights, and was not even qualified to control her handling on the ticket with all her executive skills? She could not control a few handlers in the campaign, but she was going to reform/control the true power brokers in Washington??? Not a chance.
Her place on the Republican ticket was nothing more than the party pandering for Hillary's disgruntled supporters, this a blind man could see. Does Palin not realize that she was nothing more than the rookie supporting actress who is asked by the director to do the nude scene in the movie because it is going to make it a blockbuster (because the leading acress knew better)??? How naive...
They paraded her around like a fresh idea, but she was only the fresh meat. They had her bare her soul and imperfections which was courageous and admirable on her part, then they had her do their dirty work by calling Obama every name in the book, and now not a single one of them is standing by her side. I never agreed with her, but she is a human being who took a risk few of us would. I just hope both SHE and the VOTERS of Alaska remember how she carried herself in trying to get elected to one of the most honorable positions in our government, the executive branch.
Perhaps she should go quietly into the night to avoid reminding the voters...
palin is correct She is talking to many of you pathetic losers on here who call yourselve Obamabot agents of change -- nothing could be further from the truth. Most of you who slam Palin are ignorant, clueless, and likely have not worked a day in your lives, Get a life
Let her talk. The more she talks the more we laugh what a joke she is. There was a reason why McCain did not want her talk to media. She is simply stupid- just listen to her talk to Canadian pranks.
Not only is she one of the biggest liars in politics, but all she's done since the election is complain about what she perceives as press bias. What a whiner!!!
Trick!
Your comment is awaiting moderation.
Is this red herring compliments of a bored, pathetic x-candidate who lies?
I don't know anyone who has any concern about the parentage of her son Trig. This "controversy' is something her and her party keep alive by continually bringing it up.
It seems the purpose is to distract from the many relevant reasons she should not be a national candidate, the most part due to the perception that she has questionable ethics and a loose (to put it mildly) interpretation of the truth.
Her failure to appear to have a strong grasp of current events and the lack of interest to learn didn't help, either.
Sooo...can bloggers slam hypocritical, non-worldly, happily ignorant, self-righteous, race baiting, candidates who lie? Just wondering...
So Palin did not have a child and we question that, but Obama not being born in the U.S. goes unchallenged. That is right he released his birth certificate, then he released another with the seal. Ironic those who back this liar cast stones on the loser. All politicians lie, some just do it better.
Who's Sara Palin???????
You know, during the campaign I hated Palin. The sound of her voice was like nails on a chalkboard. I threw things at the TV when she started on her "pallin' around with terrorists" BS. I lost sleep over the thought that there was even a slight hint of a possibility that she could have a role in national politics.
Funny thing is, now that all of that is behind us, I sort of enjoy reading about her. She's just so funny.
Sarah Palin won't go away until the media, including blogs, stops reporting on her daily rants. Any words written, broadcast, or read about her only feeds her ambition. Send a message to all media–Sarah Palin is a nobody. We don't care about her opinions or her actions, so don't bother to report on them. If you do, we won't pay attention to you.
She could just answer the questions and provide the proof and then no one would question her anymore on the topic. Otherwise, the gossip hounds will continue until they can prove her a liar.
AMERICA SAY IT LOUD!
WE DON'T WANT TRAILER PARK TRASH IN THE WHITEHOUSE PERIOD.,................................................
for all you people who think palin would do a great job please answer the following. how would she function every day reading things about her she did not like. she would have a press conference every day to try to defend herself. she is not mature enough to be in the big time spotlight. she is where she belongs in a place where she can go after people who disagree with her and try to disrupt thier lives. she will never be a solid candidate . those are the facts
Here's some truth for you Sarah, Your quickly becoming the next Tanya Harding.
Oh, Please, Please – enough of this palinthetic reporting!
Many of the people who voted for Sarah Palin were attracted to her for her looks.
She will be nearly 48 when the next election comes around, and she will look older and not as "hot" as her followers would want.
I think that alone will keep her out of the race.
Where are her medical records??? She promised to release them, but then....time was too short until Election Day, so she just didn't do it.
If she truly is Trig's mother, you'd think she'd move heaven and earth to present concrete evidence to prove it. Instead, it's the same old Sarah Soft Shoe Routine...skip, dance, jig, dip, etc. Sarah Palin Master Illusionist!
This woman is quite pathetic. And I've been racking my brains as to why I destest her so. Because my pondering has been influenced by the image in my brain of her standing with her nasty leg on a moose that she had just shot, it's neck all torn and bleeding, with a smile on her face and ever since then I have loathed her. She is everything I destest most in a person, male or female. Add to that the image of a turkey losing its life while she is talking and I'm sickened by her and the image.
This morning the reason that I dislike her the most popped into my head. This woman HAS NOT PAID HER DUES. With most things of value, human beings have to pay their dues. Great positions require it. And when you pay your dues there is a certain humility that is developed which is lacking in Sarah Palin. She has come onto the public arena, national politics with an arrogance and a thick-skinned manner – a kind of pushing herself onto us that is quite disturbing. That's why she's called a "whack job" by less sensitive, thinking people.
She has not paid her dues, and I don't think she would ever understand even what that means.
Paulina
What a ditzy Broad !!!!
Go the hell away Sarah...ENOUGH !!!
Those of us in the "Real Pocket's Of America" said "No" to you . We wish you would truly go away don't go away mad simply go away...
Oh boo hoo. Blogger fueled followers have called the Director of Health in Hawaii nonstop about Obama's birth certificate (which they have 100% confidence in; and you don't see Obama whining about it.
Her thoughts are immaterial and have no significants what so ever. As a life long Republican it bothers me that she was the best the party could do, so Sarah, just go away and stay away and come to realize that you have had your time in the light and it is over.
Does anyone find it peculiar that this woman holds a degree in JOURNALISM, yet she can barely form a coherent, intelligent sentence? She couldn't even cite one major newspaper she reads.
You lost. Please go away.
wahhh..wahhh...!!! I'm a liberal and Sarah's not fighting fair...!!! She should let us criticize her, lie about her and her family...while stroking the criminal we put in office...all without saying anything about our ill behavior...wahh....! Now, she's talking back...It's just not fair I tell ya!
Dear McConartist hatchett:
You are beneath contempt and far from a gentleman. That is, a typical Democrat.
Jim, looks like they're getting under Palin's skin. I think you have it backwards. Due keep it up though, this is an excellent way to finish off your party for good.
The Wasilla hillbillies get all WWF Mavericky on us.
The maturity level of this woman is equal to a 12 year old.
I am suprises she isn't sticking out her tongue and stomping her feet.
“bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie.”
Sounds like liberal bloggers to me. They just feel. They don't think.
Well, she complains about anoynmous bloggers. I sent her an email, calling her out about putting her family out there... her fault. I haven't heard a word from her or her office. Oy!
The audacity of this woman is unbelievable. She's such a narscissist that she can't see beyond her own nose! Thank God the American people her for what she was.
DEAR GOD, LET THIS OBVIOUSLY STUPID AND INCOMPETANT WOMAN FIND A VERY DEEP HOLE IN AND GROUND AND COVER HERSELF UP !!!
There are no "do overs" in this life, Gov. Palin. You lost because the American voters overhelmingly voted in favor of intelligent, well educated, prepared, and honest (not to mention rational) leadership instead of you and Senator McCain. You should be proud of your country for doing the right thing and respectful of the demoncratic process. In the end, Ms. Palin, it was our choice, not yours! That's the way democracy works. Now let it go and get back to work!
Until you, the liberal elite, throw stones at Mr. Obama for his improper words of speech, don't pretend to know more than others. Even when a person misuses words, like myself, that doesn't make someone better or worse than the next. Oh, just wondering, what has happened to the illegal immigrant relative of Mr. Obama? Are the laws for this being upheld as Mr. Obama had stated? Just wondering. Lay off Mrs. Palin and treat her with respect as others who put forth the effort in governing in our great country.
The great thing about this form of entertainment, is that is is entirely free. We don't have to pay anything for this young woman to embarras herself, or divide her political party. And it keeps going, and going, and going!
GO HOME AND RAISE YOUR CHILDREN AND/OR GRANDCHILDREN....JUST PLEASE STOP TALKING INTO A MIC.
DEAR CNN, ALL I WANT IN THE NEW YEAR IS FOR YOU TO STOP REPORTING ON HER......THEN SHE WILL GO AWAY.....
I
Like the Energizer Bunny, she just keeps on going and going and going.......................
When will this person (Palin) just go away to her snow covered house and hybernate? She had her name in the lights and now she should just go away and stay away!
Sarah, Sarah! Who'd know best about Being Pathetic, and Lies, than a filthy neocon christard like you?
I realize she's granting a string of interviews, but if no one listened, she'd have to realize her 15 minutes were up. This is getting ludicrous already!
That's it, stupid. Just keep on whining and showing us all how thin-skinned, unsophisticated, and desperately insecure you really are, Governor Flailin'. You are not ready for national ofice and never will be. Stick to shooting wolves from helicopters. GO AWAY and give us a break!
It's amusing how Obama supporters scream bloody murder over web myths spread about Obama while they were the first to forward any and every absurdity regarding Palin without thinking twice. I guess that's they way they voted, too, for Obama without thinking twice.
Thank goodness these people have finally been called out.
It's high-end entertainment, aimed at the intellectually gifted who are able to discern the humor. For her next act, I would LOVE to see another sit-down with Joe Biden...a free-for-all, so to speak Please let her keep talking – I am bored during the days in wintertime Ohio, and I am starting to depend on the likes of Sarah and her plumber buddy to entertain me.
yess, yes.. keep marginalizing yourself.
You know what annoys me, Sarah? Pathetic losers who blame everyone else for their problems, i.e., You.
You owe our new president an apology for calling him a terrorist. You also owe the secret service an apology for all the crazies you stirred up that they need to deal with. You political practises were not Christian and they cost you my vote.
What does she think about pathetic politicians who lie?
Too bad that CNN doesn't devote the same energy to investigating and reporting factual information on issues of importance to this country. For CNN to call itself a news agency is hilarious!
Go away – Go away – Go away – I am a repbulican and I still say go away Palin – go away!
Sarah Palin needs to get a life. If I were a resident of Alaska, I would be e-mailing or calling her office on a daily basis requesting that she take care of the state's business and stop the whinning.
I feel sorry for anyone in the State of Alaska who has to listen to her whin on a daily basis. What were they thinking when they voted for her? Yes, she taxed Big Oil to get their rebates, but her party didn't think it was a good idea for the rest of the country. I guess Alaskans are more priviledged than the rest of of the States' citizens. Our states, too, give towards the well-being of this country. Big business Barons from New York has robbed West Virginians of their coal and we get no rebates.
She was supposely in austin texas when her water broke, yet she boarded an air plane and flew to alaska to have the baby. don't make me laugh. she is as phony as they come.
I doubt this story and the writer is who she is speaking about. Show her saying it and in her demeanor or don't write about it because you at the news can no longer be trusted! I doubt it, don't believe it and you can't prove it!
She's the biggest liar of all. Who cares what she says anyway. She's a nothing and as dishonest as they come!
I think it's the press that won't leave her alone, not that she's going out and trying find someone to talk to her. I find it interesting though that Clinton didn't even get nominated but you people can't get enough of seeing her. If you think Palin should go away, then why aren't you complaining about Clinton? Oh, yeah... whiny liberals with only one viewpoint. I forgot.
If Palin hates the media, bloggers, and everyone in general why doesn't she shut her mouth and leave all of us alone.
I can't believe the people of Alaska would elect her again to anything.
"It is best to have people thing you are ignorant than to open your mouth and confirm their belief, with apologies to Mark Twain.
Gov. Palin get a clue. The Republican power brokers blame you for the loss, not McCain. You will never get back to a White House run. As the mob guys say,"the fix is in"!
Hey, Alaska!...do yourselfs a big favor. When you vote for a govenor next time...vote for a real governor type!
Haha! Its not just "liberals". Read the next article on the ticker about Mike Huckabee and explain that. By the way, notice how she brought up the word "cryptic" while being totally cryptic. She never answers the question being asked.
Sarah,
Good for you! Say it loud and proud girl your future is looking brighter and brighter.
Is there anything that I can do to get this poster child for dysfunctional politicians out of the news? Your 15 minutes are over...back to the tundra.
Please stop reporting "news" stories related to this woman. She's uttered comments like these, and they've been posted here, several times before. I'm not learning anything as a result of this story, and that's what this organization is supposed to do – inform people of relevant happenings that they otherwise would not be aware of. That's not what this is.
TAKE IT ALL OFF, SARAH, YOU SKANKY HO!
Every time she opens her mouth it's a stream of incoherent idiotic gibberish. I love it! It's totally entertaining. Speak in tongues for us, Sarah! fgkjhairh akjskavshfkav! You betcha! *wink!*
Sarah Palin
Hockey-mom eye candy....nothing more....nothing less.
I smell an appearance on Maury to settle the Trig thing........Who da baby Mommy?
And hey – she has a promising career as a stand up comedian, pretty
much everyone thinks she's funny. Everyone laughs @ a MORON
Please God, let Sarah be the future face of the GOP. We need the laughs and the Democrats are going to need the extra time she'll help ensure. Amen
Anything but PEBO is good news!
Everyone is nervous about Palin including the Republican wannabes like Huck...!
Authenticity scares politicians. They are used to obfuscation and arrogant egomaniacs with diarrhoea of the mouth!
Why is this woman still in the news??
Amazing waste of time. Palin does not have a brain to be in office. But she is entertaining isn't she? I bet the people waiting to vote for her are eating up all her words.
Give up Sarah Palin! Go home and raise your kids. Or better yet take Alaska out of the gutter and remove it from the list. #1 in rapes in all USA. Change that!
This is too easy to proof and clear. A DNA test. I wonder, Why Not??? unless there is really a story.
Sara, ignore the media, you'll feel better. If what anyone says about you ticks you off and you go off, then all they will do is jerk your chain. I'm not in anyway a supporter, having voted for Obama, but I just have to tell you, you don't come off very well like this and you have all but closed your chance to run again as a credible candidate. Who wants a hot head in office in a world like this?
"WaH WAH WAH!!!!"
-Sarah Palin
Sarah just can't shut up. Could you imagine a whining president fabricating truth, justice, and "Sarah's" way. A baby at the breast, with her blackberry on Yahoo in the other hand, watching "Putin rear his head" blaming Pres. Obama for the weather. Still no pipeline, Alaska in ruins belonging now to Canada, and just finding out that South Africa is south of North Africa. Still waiting for God to open that door so she can do a follow up on Saturday Night Live, looking out the White House window trying to see Russia, and hoping that Katie Couric and Charles Gibson will finally ask for new interviews. Good Luck America and count your blessings this fanatic will hopefully never escape Alaska.
Move on,refocus.
Way to go, Sarah.!
Give them H..., like Harry S. Truman!
About time people are held responsible for telling lies!
I find Sarah, "gutsy," down to earth, and more in touch with reality than all these people willing to criticize her.
Leave her alone. She has the right to say whatever.
How does she expect to be considered for any national office if she can't get along with the media? Just keep staring at Russia from your backyard....Too bad the media isn't making it any easier to forget about her....
Sarah Palin brought great energy and enthusiasm to the campaign. She also galvanized the social conservative base of the party. Prior to adding her to the ticket, this important element of the Republican base had been luke-warm, at best, to the McCain candidacy. Gov. Palin offers the Republican Party a candidate who is able to articulate her positions in a way that attracts people to her unlike anyone since President Reagan. I expect and certainly hope we see and hear a great deal more from her in the years to come. She is a Godly woman who possesses the honor, integrity and character so vitally needed in the leadership of our government today.
I find it really "funny" that Palin feels the media should put her legal age daughter in the off limits category. I was given the impression she indicated her 18 year old daughter is not being treated fairly because the media has respected Obama's request to limit their coverage of his 8 and 10 year old girls. She doesn't see a difference between the two age groups. I don't see the media affording much coverage to her other younger children.
Am surprised Palin would talk to the Enquirer – especially since they printed stories that she had an affair with her husband's business partner and that her son joined the army to avoid drug charges. There are lies about most famous people on the Internet – but most of the stories printed about Palin in the main stream media were true. Unfortunately in her case it's just that the truth hurts. Instead of whining she should be reading all the newspapers and other materials she didn't read before getting nominated which resulted in her looking like a dolt. And since she was shopping her family around for a reality show before she was the nominee, her cries of media intrusion in her life are ridiculous to say the least.
Sometimes if you ignore people, they do go away. Let's stop the Palintology and see if she does just go away. Sadly tho, it remains possible that the ultrarightwingnutjob faction of the GOP may try to promote her in the future. Maybe if she is rejected twice on a national level, she'll get the message since she obviously didn't get it this time that this election was as much, if not more, a rejection of her as it was both a rejection of GWB and John McCain and an embrace of Barack Obama and hope for the future.
Ms Palin makes all this pathetic herself –
Go hide and take care of your family –
Oh, and you can see a smal part of Russia from Alaska, but only from a small tiny little island belonging to Alaska, which Sarah has never stepped foot on, according to the people of that island.
Oh, this worthless woman has GOT to go away!!!!!!
How about when Fox news lies? Does that bother you Palin? Does it bother you that Fox news parades opinion as fact? Does it bother you that Fox news is a Republican mouthpiece masquerading as a ligitmate news source? Did it bother you when Tom DeLay was indicted and Fox news carried the feed and labeled him as "D-TX"?
I didn't think so.
You really are trailer trash. Go back to live in the mountains.
Go away. GOD...JUST GO AWAY!
McCain's conduct since the election has been admirable: he simply got on with his life. Or maybe he's hiding out, cognizant of the fact that he's the one who unleashed this disaster of a politician upon the world. Either way, he is showing much more character and dignity than this woman, who can't seem to come to grips with the fact that the US, as a whole, said "no" to her.
I hope the Republicans keep bringing Sarah Palin back over and over. She provides endless entertainment, and it will mean sure victory for Democrats as long as she is carrying the Republican banner. You go, Sarah!
It is an insult to this country and to the people of america that she thinks or that anyone else actually believes in her being a valid candidate for anything past the mayor of Timbuktu. God Bless America, but God does not bless a Woman who believes she stands for "family values" when she has a pregnant unwed daughter, and so irresponsibly gave birth to a baby at the age of 43.
Sara Palin was the answer to a lot of our prayers.
Thank you God for Sara and thank you for making her republican.
and i thought i wanted paris hilton to go away.
Sorry, Mrs. Palin. Those quotes were not taken out of context. You were asked about your foreign policy experience and you said that you could see Russia from Alaska. Come to Tennessee and you can see seven states from lookout Mountain. Does that mean I have experience in interstate relations and trade? Quit blamin' the media. You sure seem to be talkin' to the media a lot lately.
We all know that legitimate journalism died during this election!
And smart does does not mean wise!
Every day I thank God more that she's not our next Vice President.
You know whats funny? People who want to forget Palin, yet read articles about her and waste their time writing about how much they want to forget her.
At last she has come out of the closet! ann coulter's long lost sister! what a pair of bookends.
Palin, Palin, Palin, does she honestly think she has a chance at the presidency? Blame the media all you want, but many Americans did see you speak for themselves, and any of them with half a brain would have realized that your head is full of air =D
The whole mom faking a pregnancy to cover up the shame of her unwed teen daughter was a great script on desperate housewives, but in real life it would be pathetically sad... If she wants to silence the rumors forever then either release her medical records like all the other candidates did, or release a paternity test of Trig, or just get used to the conspiracy theories about something that really is not news.
Palins stomach is to flat to have had a baby at her age, unless, she had a tummy tuck and breast lift. In the 40's, the skin has lost its elasticity. She looks to good to have had a baby. Just my opinion.
Cute how CNN always posts the anti-Palin, anti-Republican comments.
It is such a scary thought that looking only at the popular vote, she almost became VP! As a registered Republican, I decided that not voting was better than giving this Palin idiot a chance to be President. That is the least I can do for my country!
I wonder if now CNN (CLinton News network) will change its name to ONN (Obama News network) to try to out suck-up MSNBC/NBC to Obama and his cronies..and no, I am not a conservative by any means, Im an openly gay Denmocrat but I prefer balance to my news, not all one sided, and that goes for CNN, NBC and Fox news.
Is she also slamming the conservative blogger who brought her to national attention? Is she ready to also talk about the lying that has been done on her behalf? Like Newt Gingrich saying she was more qualified than Obama to be president? Any positive thoughts I had about this woman went out the door once she opened her mouth. What an egoist! Tina Fey didn't even have to come up with a comedy routine, she just repeated word-for-word the inane prattle that Ms. Palin considers political discourse. Can we get over this idiot already?
Sarah, you need a public relations person to handle you. You are destroying yourself.
You all need to grow up. Here is an intelligent woman responding to continued lies thrown at her in the media, and you are still attacking her. Isn't the new Obama world the one of tolerance for all? Are you all prime examples of this Obama world? We are in trouble. I didn't vote for Obama, but I am sure supporting him and all of his efforts as President of this great country. I suggest you take his lead and stop being so horribly hateful.
Go Sarah.. dont listen to these crazy liberals on the now left leaning CNN! Sarah Plain is a great woman who has done alot for her state of Alaska. Just because she isnt a latte sipping, open border maniac, abortion loving far left liberal like the rest of you doesnt mean you can slander her all day. The baby stuff is nonsense! of course thats her child you idiots!
YOUR ALL STILL SCARED OF HER, AND YOU SHOULD BE!!!!!
Obama is already a disaster !!
GOP 2010 / 2012!
Maybe she should go be to being a journalist!
Sarah Palin, the election is over. I think you should try and be Governor of Alaska and take care of business there, Barack Obama and Joe Biden have everything else covered.
Take care.
Sarah– WE DON'T CARE.
You lost, and thus you aren't important anymore. Go back to your secessionist buddies and leave the rest of us alone. We've got a country to fix.
Your 15 minutes are over, Mrs. Palin. Will you kindly shut up now?
oh shut up, sarah
Tearing up during the National Anthem is the best thing in common she can come up with between Alaskans and New Yorkers? Pathetic. Seriously, how many residents of Alaska have attended a major league ball game? They don't even have a major league team. No wonder most democrats can't relate to many republicans – they just can't think that deeply.
Keep talking Sarah...this will help us all really get to know you, your paranoia and your "poor, woah is me attitude", that way when you surface again in 2012 we will know that you are still not qualified for public office!
Go away! You will stop at nothing to keep your name in the news. Go play with your son and Grandson!
WHY? Do we still have to talk about Palin? Let her stay in Alaska and lets quit giving her any news coverage, she is a joke and she really loves the attention it keeps her in the news. She is the reason McCain lost the election, and everyone should know that is the reason if you are honesdt with yourself. I am glad her and her Dysfunctional Family are back in Alaska, and hopes she stays there. Palin needs to quit talking to the media, every time she does , it makes her look more like an Idiot!
Anyone want to comment about the woman Obama has been e-mailing on his blackberry??
just a few thoughts...wasn't it palin that said that high profile women shouldn't "whine"; that it does a disservice to women everywhere? if she doesn't like the scrutiny, should she still be subjecting herself to it? sounds like someone got a taste of fame and actually likes it...and if this is all part of trying to be a viable contender in 2012– shouldn't she be doing more than just interviews complaining about the media? how about working on some sort of policy, or shaking up alaska?
Clearly, being gracious in neither the prior VP nomination nor defeat of the same is in her capacity.
Sarah Palin just doesn't get it!
Come on, people. The local newspaper interviewed her and she answered their questions..just as any of us would do. She just happens to be honest and about her feelings. Whether or not we agree with them is one thing, but I admire her for her openness. it was CNN that picked up the story and chose to put it on their website. Regarding comments to this story, they are hateful and disgusting...just what she is talking about. I/we may not agree with everything she says or her policy positions, but it doesn't make it right for people to ask that she "show us pictures of her belly" to prove her "supposed" pregnancy, call her a liar, a ditz and pathetic. When people make those kind of statements, it just proves her point and makes the rest of us seem that much more unintelligent and rude. She wouldn't have made a very good vice-president, in my mind, but I choose to share my opinions in a less hostile way.
She doesn't like lies? Hmm. Like "I sold the governor's jet on e-bay"?
Please. Enough about Governor Palin. I'd take Paris Hilton news over this.
I love Palin and can't wait to meet her next month!
PLEASE GO AWAY! PLEASE!!!!
GEEZ
Hey who ever Angie is try to get the right people in you stupid comments. That wasn't the Palin family. Not only are you stupid but you can't read or understand what your reading from your pathetic media friends. It must be great being you, so perfect, are you sure you don't hear the jingle of the bones of the skeletons in your closet. But just to set the record straight the Palins weren't involved in drug dealing. Sit down and read it again, you'll understand it eventually. Have a great day loser!
Is she still talking?
I love how she doesn't see the irony in complaining about birth certificate conspiracies, while paying homage to all the loonies who think that Obama is not a citizen.
Is this story in replacement or in relief of all the problems we have.
Laugh-in "How velly interesting but stupid"
Sarah Palin
The gift that keeps on giving....
Did some of you get layed off already or are you working from India?
Boring, anonymous liars. If this isn't the pot calling the kettle black.
GO AWAY!!! YOU LOST!!! GET OVER IT!!!
What is it about the radiant sarah palin that causes such primeval emotions from posters around the world? She lost didn't she? So forget about her. But you can't.
This woman makes herself look like an idiot in front of the camera and now blames the media. Sarah Palin your stupidity is your own.
Media please stop writing about this woman maybe then she will descent into total madness and spontaneous combust!
Please, please, please, please stop reporting on Sarah Palin...if we forget about her, maybe she will go away?
The pig in lipstick doth protest too much.
CNN – and the rest of the media – Palin's 15 minutes of fame is up! Please stop covering her! There are far too many serious issues currently facing Americans that need to be addressed by you. Palin is a non-issue. As for her own "issues" with the media: had she not been a con artist and a liar, not to mention an ignorant politician with poor English grammar who will need a ghost writer and a darn good editor to write any book she's contracted to write (look for "Pet the Goat Part II"), she wouldn't get any press at all.
Palin needs to implement the old adage: "Less is More" and eliminate her reactive behavior. Not becoming at all.
Her "in the face" responses and demeanor do nothing to promote her political desires – she has lost credibility and any political prowess she might have thought she had.
Give it up and go out with grace.
Amazingly enough most of you that are writing comments about Palin are saying go away.. yet you're her biggest fans. You care enough to read about what she says. Maybe if you'd all stop reading stories about her they wouldn't get so many hits and think she's still important. Shut up and leave her alone!
Boo-hoo-frickin'-hoo!
Sarah, how can you say your comments about being able to see Russia were taken out of context? You are the one who said that in response to a question about your foreign policy experience...
Do you really think that we misunderstood you? I don't think so. Maybe you should explain then context then instead of just saying it was taken out of context.
Sarah, Sarah, Sarita... really, how much do you need to feel good???
Really, don't YOU have useful things to do at work? in your life?
Please, do us all a favor, do the world a favor and stay away from public, from politics WOULD BE THE BEST. Another piece of advise, before you make any other comment, spend some time at school to get some education. It is pathetic you have such a job!!! PATHETIC
What's pathetic is a political never-was lashing out at average citizens in a desperate attempt to claw back into the spotlight.
ja –
You're looking to Palin as an example of morality? Why are you looking to your political leaders for morality in the first place? You should be looking for ethical leadership. We have this thing in America called the separation of Church and State. In part that means our government will not legislate morality... in other words, force individual ideas of morality on the rest of society.
Palin did a great job teaching morality to her children, except for the teen pregnancy and video of the same 16 year-old daughter smoking what appears to be pot. Oh, and her new mother-in-law wasjust busted for dealing drugs. Yah, very "moral."
As for ethics, she's a shining example to the community again if it wasn't for her using her office to influence the firing of a police officer who just happened to be recently very unhappily divorced from her sister. Other than that she's never so blatantly abused the powers of her office (that we know about).
Ever see the movie Idiocracy? She is one of the people in this world who is diluting brains from the gene pool, she and her offspring, and I'm not talking about little Trig. He is one of the bright spots in that family.
she is a great woman!
Get it Sarah, you have outlived your worthiness to the Repubs. I dare you to try running in 4 years and see how they will tear you and your family up. They will use the same tactics they are known for. It was ok with them that your daughter got pregnant out of high school, they pretended to admire your courage but deep down they had other things to say about you. Try in 2012 Ms "I can see Russia from my window". They knew you were dumb !!!
For now, JUST GO AWAY. The lime light belongs to OBAMA, our man.
There is nothing wrong with Sarah Palin. The media is the problem. She isn't harping on the loss back in NOV. She will be BACK,
Palin /Jindal 2012
To any of you who post here AND support Palin - gotta tell you, she called YOU pathetic TOO. She insulted all of us here. We are, according to her, pathetic bloggers and we all lie.
How can you support someone who calls you a liar??
Bored, pathetic Palin annoys me. She has now launched a full-time career in attempting to stay in the spotlight. Enough, already. She's pitiful. She's not even a has-been. She's a never-was-and-never-will-be. The woman thought Africa was a country.
Ah poor Sarah, she can't handle the criticism and goes after bloggers now! Can SNL bring back Fey to do a skit on her latest attack? Is there anyone left that she hasn't blamed for the GOP loss?
Sarah is so hot when she's whining!
Palin's campaign lies and rhetoric about her record and about PE Obama have an "alikeness" to the pathetic bloggers she accuses of spreading lies about her.
The best thing Palin could do is stop bringing up all the things that made people NOT vote for her and hire a speech coach to help her out with her grammar and vocabulary. Her word choice is definitely akin to Bush.
WINK WINK
I agree with 99 % of the remarks. The people of Alaska must have been suffering from frostbite of the brain when they elected her to govern their State.
I agree with her on anonymous bloggers. If you have an opinion, then stand up and stand by it. Changes can't come from people who yell from the shadows but won't step into the light and try to make the change happen.
Holy cow. Is there no end to this? Can I please go just 24 hours without seeing Sarah Palin's name in print? She's like a bad rash that won't go away.
So let me get this straight: It's ok to say Barack's only accomplishment was that he pushed for "comprehensive sex education for Kindergartners," and to say that he "Pals around with terrorists?" But when people talk about you, they're pathetic?
Get real. What's really pathetic is your narcissism, and the fact that the media still feels compelled to cover your train wreck.
The more this women opens her mouth, the more she puts her foot in it.
Jim January 13th, 2009 2:56 pm ET
Keep it up Sarah!! I hope you get so far under their skin that they scratch themselves bloody! You guessed it!! I'm not a liberal!
________________________________________________
Jim: This mindless twit is not getting under anybody's skin....She's good for a laugh....It's really sad that she continues to make a fool out of herself. Apparently she is not very busy in Alaska.
Please go away. I have never been repulsed by any politician as I have been sarah palin. God help the GOP.
Can you imagine four years of this? I've got to wonder what the other choice for Alaska governor was.
Who cares what she has to say? CNN needs to stop giving her a forum.
HAS ANYONE TOLD HER THAT SHE. AND JOHN Mc CAIN, AND JOE THE PLUMBER LOST THE ELECTION???????????????? SOMEBODY TELL HER, THAT THE PARTY IS OVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hear this Sarah?? It's the tiniest violin in the world, playing just for you. Please, just go away or stop talking, or both. Go watch a hockey game and eat some Moose chili or whatever you do up there, but we in the lower 48, who have more than a gradeschool eduction, don't give a crap about what you think.
Palin – you just keep rockin' and rollin', woman.
Beyond all the misogynist "gotcha" crud you were dished during the campaign, you held your head high.
Can anyone else name which major mainstream media outlet made any kind of a disparaging comment or snicker or attack about Obama's "57 states of the US"? Answer: None. Or his other missteps, like insulting Nancy Reagan or anyone with religious convictions? Answer: None. Or his supposed ignorance of the bigotry spewed for 20 years by his pastor? Answer: None.
Or how every other interview with Joe Biden, our soon to be VP, he'd say something totally off the wall and bizarre, especially when he insisted that the word "jobs" is a three-letter word? But that the media smiled and chuckled at his mistakes and never held him up to the same light of scrutiny they did Palin? (Uncle Joe is supposedly smarter than Palin, ha ha ha). Sarah, you have my vote in 2012.
I'm not a Republican, but I'm also not a naive "kumbaya, everyone let's get along and live a socialist life" person. Scary stuff. If Obama's socialistic agenda actually WORKED, heck, Cuba would be the place to live because it would be a world power. Russia would be absolute paradise – Siberia would be the place to ski with the Hollywood libs. The US would be the downtrodden, poverty-stricken nation.
How about pathetic governors who give $15,000,000.00 hockey rink contracts to contractors who build the governor's $500,000.00 lake house for free??? Ted Stevens used the same contractors to work on his Alaska home, and wound up getting convicted for it.
Oh, and Sarah, use some depilatory cream, your mustache is starting to show.
McCain should've left her in Alaska where she belongs. Now she's like old chewing gum that sticks to your shoe and won't go away.
Gary... before you tell her she's not smarter than the American public maybe you need to learn the difference between "your" and "you're". "YOU'RE not smarter than the American public."
And she still hasn't provided any medical records to disprove anything ....
"Whaa, whaa, whaa. I media didn't let me be President, I mean Vice President. Whaa, whaa whaa. " Sharah get over your self.
I find it amazing how many people out there who can not spell, punctuate, or complete a proper sentence are accusing Sarah Palin of ignorance and lack of education. At best, you don't bother to proofread your comments. At worst, you never completed 5th grade English. If you really wish to impress others with your intelligence and Ms. Palin's (alleged) lack thereof, take a grammar course. Otherwise, you only prove your own ignorance.
I guess she didn't read the editor's note in the Anchorage newspaper explaining that the paper is trying to debunk the myth that she's not Trig's real mom. More indication of continued problems in the world of politics.
Tiberius the Roman Emperor was a despot who desperately wanted to be loved by all Romans. To that end he annointed Caligula to be his successor. He knew full well that Caligula would be so much worse than he that the Romans would have to say – and here I take a bit of poetic license – , 'you know Bush wasn't so bad after all, at least he wasn't Palin!' Impossible you say? Bush may be stupid, but he isn't dumb
"Caribou Barbie," thanks for relieving my boredom.
When you run for one of the most powerful offices in the world, you have to be ready to take shots, no matter how ridiculous they are. Her seemingly hysteric reaction to those in the media and "anonymous bloggers" just demonstrates that she does not have the patience or fortitude to govern this nation.
Sara, Bush's second nightmare.... Sara, Sarita... We have enough of your stupidity, of your lies and your schemes. You just want to be on the first page everyday. Any attention is attention to you... you are more dangerous than we think. Can't imagine for my life how those Alaska people have elected you... Good luck to them. I am glad you are far from the White House, not just for the American but for the WHOLE WORLD... Thank God!
Sarah,
Did you forget who was running for the president of the U.S? May be you should try to run yourself to see how far you will go! May be in your book, you can call more shots or even just say you did call more shots – oops, just no one listened!
Why so called "conservatives" of this country would adore this uneducated idiot?
Jim, you are as delusional as Mrs. Palin. She isn't getting under anyone's skin, I for one feel bad for her and her pathetic media is against me rants. If she doesn't let this go I fear for her mental health. Next time out she should stick to Hannity and Rush. Then she won't have to act like the ultimate victim. For someone with a journalism degree who was so well read she certainly was naieve about the media don't you think? So in the words of Tina Fey, she can suck it.
Since my first blog on this story, you have updated the article to publish the Anchorage Daily News' version to say that they were only investigating to "debunk rumors". All that is is an excuse to pull bloggers' comments into the MSM without admitting that you are. This is the equivalent of trying to pick up a piece of manure by the clean end. Stay away from it....
wow, she looks like she spends more time defending herself than running her state, anyone else see that?
Your constant criticism of Gov. Palin is cruel and unfair. My parents always taught me that you do not deride people with mental handicaps, like Gov. Palin and former President George Bush. Instead we should encourage Gov. Palin to act like nothing is wrong with her. I encourage Gov. Palin to keep talking and don't be afraid to show people your disability. If they make fun of you, they have the problem, not you. They are misunderestimating you, Governor. Stay strong. We are so proud of you. Yolu are as smart as you think you are!
I love how these Repugs talk about and insist on taking personal responsibility. Until it makes them look bad, then it's the other guys fault.
Totally obvious that a good portion of the blogs on this page are the same person leaving comments with different initials. Grow up.
Sarah, pull yourself together and try to immerse yourself in governing Alaska. Forget about the campaign, the press, and the election-it is over. The country is looking ahead and your pouting is untimely.
As long as we keep giving her the attention, she'll never leave us alone.
Your constant criticism of Gov. Palin is cruel and unfair. My parents always taught me that you do not deride people with mental handicaps, like Gov. Palin and former President George Bush. Instead we should encourage Gov. Palin to act like nothing is wrong with her. I encourage Gov. Palin to keep talking and don't be afraid to show people your disability. If they make fun of you, they have the problem, not you. They are misunderestimating you, Governor. Stay strong. We are so proud of you. You are as smart as you think you are!
Sarah
Go ahead and build that bridge, cross it, and stay there !
The media is not to blame for her stupidity.
She is attacked because we are all still amazed at how dumb this woman is in coorelation to the positions she has held.
I'm sure her baby is her baby, so I will take her side on that issue, however the woman is obviously unintelligent, which is why she is such a target.
I think Sara Palin is a nice person, and I sometimes think the world forgets that.
I don't know why you guys want her to shut up. Every time she opens her mouth, Democrats gain votes. As Napoleon once said, "Never interupt your enemy when he is making a mistake."
Just look at the ammo she is handing us: "I have a great deal of life experience."
Yeah, baby! Abstinance only ed for (pregnant) daughter. Check!
Godly influence for son – sent to the army, instead of jail, for drugs and vandalism. Check!
Keep it coming, Sarah babe!
OMG! Can she ever shut her trap? She is a real piece of work isn't she? I don't care who fathered that kid, who had that kid, who raises that kid. I do feel sorry for her kids, she has brought them so much pain becasue she was power hungry. If she had said NO, their lives would be blissfuly happy (ignorant, but happy). But, NO, she keeps them front and center, all the time. I think that is abuse and I wish she would get called on it. Where's CPS when you need them!
If Palin keeps saying she's learned to let things go, then why does she keep bringing all this garbage up?? JUST GO AWAY ALREADY!
To the comment "When Obama's country of origin was questioned, he released his birth certificate" was a legitimate question. Our Constitution clearly sets forth the qualifications for a President. His country of origin should have been questioned. He answered. End of story.
To the comment "As for Palin's Medical records we still haven't seen whiny Palin's medical records detailing her pregnancy." That has nothing to do with her ability to be Governor, Vice Presdent or whatever. It is none of our business.
And to all those who wish her to "go away" as you put it.... I'd say you are pretty fixated on this lady or you would't be taking the time to read and/or make comments about her. With all your "vast knowledge" of her personal and public life, I'd say you were spending a tremendous amount of time reading everything you can about her. So, why don't you all just ignore it and say nothing, and perhaps it would go away.
I think at some point you have got to stop complaining. You didn't win and that is what the American public voted. I was truly disappointed when Ms Palin was chosen. There are many viable Republican candidates that are female. I would have loved to see someone like Olympia Snowe or Kay Bailey Hutchenson picked. Then I would have voted for Mr. McCain. I don't pick my vote based on a candidates stand on abortion. Ms Palin I watched you in the VP debate and one of the first things you said was that you weren't going to answer all the questions. I was shocked at your arrogance! You are suppose to represent us and we wanted the questions answered. I know that the news media is unfair, but take the high road and do your job!
"Show me the money", a great line from a fun movie. Gov. Palin, the ball is in your court. "Show me the birth certificate". When it is all said and done, if you wanted the story to go away you would have produced your son Trig's birth certificate and this would all go away. (Like Obama had to produce his birth certificate.)
I still question the decision made to fly in your 3rd trimester to TX to give a speech knowing you were caring a special needs child. Most doctors tell women not to travel that late in a pregnancy (especially a woman carrying her 5th child) and you knew you were carrying a special needs child. You already admitted to knowing this fact so why would you travel 12 hours in the air both ways. And you wonder why people question your abilities.
To all of the people who respond with comments about CNN constant stories of Sarah Palin, to remedy the problem, stop posting comments....apparently CNN realizes, although the majority are tired of hearing about her....The same people are still respond to the stories, negative or positive...Its the same thing with tabloids (Lindsey lohan, Brittney etc)...They keep pumping the filth, because people read it...
Hasn't this ignorant bimbo already had her fifteen minutes?
Okay all you Obama supporters(I am one too) out there. If we want the idiots who claim that Obama is not a US citizen to shut up we have to set an example and not blog about Sarah Palin's family. Sarah Palin's own statements, policies and positions speak for themselves. No need to make up stuff. Now quit lying and just enjoy the new president.
Isn't it funny that she never had a problem with bloggers spreading lies about Obama
she is the child of a female dog... and a stupid one at that!
Yeh baby! Cry me some more hick tears. Clueless trailer-trash women are hot!!!!
All of her interviews were done for her own self-defense. Lets talk about
the political issues, Sarah ?
All that stupid just can't fit in one person so she has to let it out all over national media.
She should not even lower herself to the reduced status of the bloggers by even recognizing them. They, most of the time ,don't even matter in things one way or another.
My grandmother is an idiot!
There's someting the matter with her. Seriously...something's not quite right with her. She's off. Delusional...like George Bush...delusional. They are jokes. Pathetic. The worst. Everytime they open their mouths the majority of Americans laugh at them.
Go away. Please. Just go away. You're irrelevant.
Gentlemen and Ladies,
stop reading articles pertaining to PALIN. If users dont check the links that has to do with PALIN, websites and news outlets will not run any more stories on her.
The fact that so many people read articles about her and then proceed to further blog on the article is the primary reason that websites are running her stories.
if we ignore her, do you think she will go away?
i promise to never click on anything pertaining to Palin again. Anyone with me?
Rather have pathetic bloggers who lie than scheming politicians who lie. The latter lies tend to get a lot of innocent people killed.
Let her keep on talking - comedians will need more material since Bush and Cheney will be gone into the sunset.
If anyone who follows politics should know that it is one rough, dirty game out there and not for the weak hearted and sensitive types. All throughout the history of politics have been on the negative side on the most part.
When John McCain had a so called unappropriate relations with that lobbyist – he took it like a grain of salt (I am not a supporter) but he took it in stride and kept on going on with his campain.
Obama took so many shots it was just not funny at all and he was able to weather the storm, he never put any blame out there, he and his team did their campaign and won.
So Sarah Palin is whining about everything under the sun but will take no responsibility on her actions – I really do not think there is nothing in between her ears. I personally just cannot stand the woman, she lied so much during the campaign. If she was a decent mother she would have her household in check!!! Don't give me that crap stating she is a strong woman because her daughter is an unwed tennaget mother. If Sarah Palin was latin or black, she would of been ran down the railroad with responses as typical. She states she is a Christian but she displays un Christian like qualities like spreading hate, lies, deception, etc.
I believe what comes around goes around and she will get hers in the end!!!
YOU BETCHA!!! GOLLY GEE – I am just waiting for Eddie Haskell to come out the woodworks!!!
Let's throw our shoes at this wench.
THANK GOD THIS WOMAN WAS NOT VOTED INTO OFFICE. SHE MADE A FOOL OF HERSELF BY ACCEPTING TO BE MCCAIN'S VICE. SHE WAS USED AND NOW SHE IS TRYING TO BLAME THE MEDIA. SHE DOESN'T KNOW ANYTHING, SO WHAT SOLT OF GOVERNOR SHE IS? I AM SORRY FOR THE PEOPLE OF ALASKA. I THINK SHE SHOULD PROOF THAT THE LITTLE POOR BOY IS HER REAL SON. DON'T BE STUPID SARAH, JUST SHUT UP.
SORE LOSER!!!!!
Until she show us a picture of her being pregnant and giving birth to that baby, no one would believe it's hers.
The bloggers do not lie, they just make their own comments. And if you are being the most stupid candidate of the election, then of course, the comments just reflected the TRUTH.
I think it's amusing that Sarah Palin is railing against bloggers (who lie). Listen Sarah, blogging, (by paraphrased definition) is a method by which an average person can express his/her OPINIONS via a specified site on the internet. So whether these opinions are accurate or inaccurate is purely subjective, (they are only opinions after all) and therefore the accuracy issue is beside the point of having a blog in the first place. Here's the irony of it all Sarah, it was someone's opinion (blog) that got you noticed in the first place. You seem to resent anyone who blog's against you. Well, that's basically saying that you resent anyone who disagrees with you. This attitude is unbecomming of a responsible adult, let alone a United States politician.
Sarah Palin is mocked because she is "mockable". The things she says are funny and out of place. It may be true that you can see Russia from Alaska, but that doesn't mean you have foreign policy experience. Bush could see Mexico from Texas so does that give him foreign policy experience? She was mocked over that because she SAID that the fact she can see Russia from Alaska GIVES her that foreign policy experience.
I bet John McCain is truly sorry for finding this woman tucked away in Alaska and bringing her to the forefront as VP pick. The problem is she won't go away and continues to get press coverage due to being repeatedly interviewed. Can you imagine if she and her family were about to descend on Washington, DC? YIKES. Let's move on people, her 15 min. were up LONG AGO.
Even if you can see Russia from Alaska it still doesn't give Sarah Palin more experience in foreign affairs. I can see the Hollywood sign from my house and I'm still not a movie star...
It is still astonishing to me that someone (Sarah Palin) thinks, that politics are remotely related to singing the national anthem at a baseball game. On the other hand, we have an Austrian Terminator as governor here in California...
That's why we a moron like George W. Bush as president for the past eight years who is leaving a country behind that is in the biggest crisis since WWII.
Let's hope Barrack Obama can repair what W. has destroyed.
Govern Alaska quietly, please... That's what you are supposed to do.
And people, please let the woman alone, you are making her stay in the national spotlight!!!
Sarah,
I am a blogger, and i try to persuade my audience with an honest discussion of the problems i see in you. For one, why don't you explain to the Alaskan people why you were collecting per-diem reimbursements from the taxpayer while you where staying at home. In this country, that is called fraud, waste, and abuse. You should pay back all that money back to Alaska's taxpayer.
Brace yourselves. She will be back in 4 years.
Please stop covering anything this moron says. The sooner we do that ~ the sooner we can be rid of her and her 1/2 sentences. IDIOT!!
come on........she must be getting some of those magical pills from her in-laws because she has gone bonkers, you know there's an expression fitting for her, what goes around comes around you idiot
Jindal/Palin 2012!
I cannot wait until 1/20/13, the end of an error: Barack Obama.
Enjoy your maddening descent into socialist dystopia, you liberal fools.
this stresses me out. there are more important things happening then hearing her talk about this still. she's so media hungry.
Lie?...Let me think...Oh yeah, the definition of "lie" is when a politician's lips are moving!
Obama and Biden both vote for the "bridge to nowhere" funding.
when i hear "pathetic" in context with Palin, only one thing comes to mind!
Keep lying Kitty Litter!
Just shut up, will ya?!
If you want to see a liar, look i the mirror, go away.
Please stop with all this mess, Palin you will not get into office again!!!! Oh lord I hope not!!!!
Sarah Palin is a CELEBRITY
And she knows it!
And what a person do when they're a celebrity???
Keep their name in the news.
Just ask Brittany Spears, Tom Cruise, etc.
why am I supposed to care what Sarah Palin has to say about anything? Did the 2012 campaign start without me noticing?
It was o.k for Palin to question Obama's citizenship and his so-called 'pals' but God forbid anyone question if Trig is her baby. If she can dish it she should be able to take it.
As for seeing Russia from Alaska-that had been in response to a question about her foreign policy experience. I am so ashamed to be a female when I hear this woman talk. Palin should go talk to 'real' journalist like Joe the Plumber.
Folks, Mrs. Palin won't go away because our thirst for gossip can't be quenched. So what if the baby Trigg is not hers, what if it he is? Who really cares at this point. Let her be. The more she talks, the worse things get for the party, who is in disarray. This country has other fish to fry.
Palin was a pawn in the presidental race and she better be sucking up to Hillary for getting the opportunity. Had Hillary been chosen, Mrs. Palin would have never been heard of. She would have been looking out her window at Putin.
You go girl!
Hey Palin, It is the bloggers who exposed you for the pathetic, non-qualified idiot that you are. Go away, far, far, far away. You would have been better off if you had kept your mouth shut after the campaign, like mccain did, instead of blaming everyone but yourself.
I hope you don't think that you are redeeming your reputation by continuing to cry over your loses. You are only making yourself look worse.
CNN HAVE YOU EVER THOUGH THAT YOU MAY INCREASING RISK OF HEART ATTACK AND BLOOD PRESSURE OF SOME VIEWERS BY POSTING THIS WOMAN
WATCH OUT
LAW SUIT IS ON THE WAY
I HAVE HAD IT
GET HER OUT OF PLANET EARTH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
she is pathetic. really. i hope the rebubs do use her, it will insure another win for the dems....go palin!!
Palin is pathetic. Go back to being a soccer mom or attempt to be a decent mother/wife whatever just go away from the news scene. You can be on ET! Entertainment tonight but not on serious news. To get a decent education is too late for you. Take care of your kids for Christs sake; not the Christ I pray to though.
Anonymous? Yes. Bored? Maybe? Liars? Truth is stranger than fiction. You had your 15 minutes Governor. How can we miss you if you won't go away?
Please Republicans, support Sarah in 2012 as your candidate for president. She is such a strong political presence who will destroy any Democrat candidate.
Smell that? Smells like sarcasm.
Jim @2:56...
You guys had (and still have) Hillary, we have Sarah.
Difference is one is actually qualified and smart enough to lead the world.
Here's a hint: It's not Caribou Barbie.
This statement speaks volumes: “If I were giving advice to myself back on the day my candidacy was announced, I’d say, Tell the campaign that you’ll be callin’ some of the shots,” she said.
What a DIVA! Seems like whenever she called the shots (as she is now) is when she started showing how inept (ah,ignorant) she truly is.
Ye Ye Sarah wanna be vice president, don't you get it American's are tired of dumb people like you, Just stay focus for once by concentrating on looking after your family and state if that is not too much for you.
Go Palin. Screw the rest of you libtards.
Watch Hillary Clinton in her confirmation hearing today. Watch an intelligent, well versed, thoroughly capable human being handle the questions that are relevant to our world today and then, if you can, imagine Palin answering those same questions.
This cry baby business about people talking bad about her and her family; making her look stupid, editing interviews to create the "illusion" of stupidity....no one has time to do that. No one anticipated she would be like that. It was a shock to everyone that SHE presented herself that way. No one else did that. Here is an analogy. You like to pretend you are a math scholar and so you go to a math genius convention. you sit on a panel and when they ask you the very first question you do not have a clue what they are talking about. Now, if they write about that in the Math convention quartely....are they the ones in error...or is it you, who went to a math convention and pretended, fraudulantly, to be a math scholar?
Jeannie
President Elect- Obama deserved some respect, Palin's comments: Palling around with terrorist, socialist, just a community organier
WHERE IS THE RESPECT!!!!!!!!
How do you know if you haven't thought about the issues? If you support Sarah Palin.
Palin, u suck! point that finger at yourself. You ruined the campaign no one else. stop blaming people.
She's now attacking us – bloggers! The woman needs to go on a tack and.......................
The Media and Democratic Party are a bunch of idiots. Most of you who are commenting on this board are clue less.
Lets face it, this broad LOVES the camera!!!!!!! Who ever heard of her before McCain made the mistake of picking her as his running mate. Hell,she would go to the opening of a door or the opening of a can or the opening of –well you'all get the picture. And as long as we continue (including myself) feedin' her she will continue with the pity party. Lets let her go. Or is that asking for too much?
Every time she opens her mouth and blames the media, she appears more ignorant than ever. Why would it be so hard to answer a question about what newspapers you read? I could answer that question immediately without even thinking. Then she tries to spin it that Katie Couric asked it in another way. I watched the replay of the interview and it was a simple question. I can only hope and pray that she stays in Alaska indefinitely!!
Palin is a total disaster. A big why bother.
CNN,
Either put Palin articles in the entertainment section of your website or don't report on her ever again. I would prefer the latter.
Sarah Palin can barely speak proper English, and as far as I can tell, has limited mastery of written word. She is the least qualified person I can think of to criticize journalists and journalism.
I'm reminded of an old saying, "It takes one, to know one!"
Sarah, just go do your hilbily drugs with your daughters mother in law. As far as liars,
Oh My God, Sarah "I can't say a word of truth" Palin is calling somebody a liar?
Republicans better join the rest of the worldin the 21st century, I knowm its amazing, but back where you Republicans seem to live, you seem to think there are no such things as recording devices, tapes, DVD's, youtube etc etc etc.
The believeme not your eyes theory doesn't seem to be holding any koolaid any more, except for a special little yellow bus few.
Yeah! Those liars... accusing her of palling around with terrorists!
Please make her go away!
Thanks but no thanks for the bridge to nowhere....
Sold the plane on eBay for a profit....
Didn't even use a teleprompter....
Turned down earmarks....
Special needs children will "have a friend in Washington if I elected..." (she slashed funding for special needs education in Alaska over 3 year period.)
Obama pals around with terrorists....
Stood up to lobbyists? False.
Didn't accept earmarks? False.
The list could go on and on.
Lies, Sarah? You really should be familiar with them. Pathetic, just pathetic.
That said, her children should be left alone. Even though she has used her child as a prop, it is not his fault and he should not be used as ammunition by her detractors. Hands off the kids, seriously.
Gee, I thought she'd been run over by a reindeer (just like in the Christmas song) after returning to Alaska post election which resulted in her permanent demise. What a shame, I guess that information was wrong. But then, hope springs eternal!
The only future interviews given by Sarah Palin that would interest me, would be those conducted by employees of Larry Flint or Hugh Hefner.
Is it ok for SNL to use white comedians in blackface to make fun of obama the magic negro for the next four years?
I can't wait.
GO
BACK
TO
ALASKA. . .
GOODBYE!
ahhh Palin- what a good laugh, nice break from job hunting and figuring out how I'm gonna cover my bills come next month
If you don't care, then why take time out of your life to let everyone know?
And btw Gary it's spelled illegitimate. You're an idiot. Oh and your grammar sucks.
She is a moron
Palin unfortunately lacked the international experience needed to become president.
Those who defend her, I appaud your attempt to make an inexperienced person sound better just because she's female.
If you can't hack it, get out of the kitchen and stop whining Ms. Palin.
The vast majority of people did not believe the 'rumors' that were spread. Period. She brought the negative image on herself. If she didn't want people to talk about her kids then she shouldn't have brought them into the spotlight every chance she could. And I have a beef with her trying to explain the fact she is ignorant about issues beyond 'talking points' by saying they were 'gotcha' questions. Every single question that she called 'gotcha,' were legitimate questions whose answers should be expected of by the American people from a vice presidential nominee. This has nothing to do with partisan politics and everything to do with the individual. In my opinion she was unfit to run, and I saw the policies and stances espoused by Obama as better than those by McCain.
If only Sarah Palin could produce a video of herself actually giving birth to Trig, then perhaps the press would believe her. Oh, but she might have switched the baby, so we would need to have that video date stamped. No, she might have faked the date stamp, so we'd need to have witnesses. Oh, but the witnesses might be paid off. So it would have to be someone we could trust. Oh yeah, we can't trust anybody. There you have it folks, iron-clad proof: She's lying.
This is fantastic. As much as anyone dislikes Palin personally, she is the most efficient point of articulation for the impending collapse of the right. Their doom is the inherent freedom of information that the internet provides, and attacking it only provokes an opposite effect than they can predict within their narrow perceptions.
Is it really such a good idea to for such an illiterate person to keep the provoking the blogerati, presuming of course that they are just an easy target, the next cheap "other," for the same trite conservative attack politics? Keep it comin lady! You are the best blessing there is toward the demise of the right! Ah, the self-fulfilling end of GOP politics... life is goooood...
Good God CNN, please let this insignificant little piece of trailer park trash go away. Were sick of hearing about every little crumb that comes out of her hatefull mouth. Let her crawl back into her little part of the world, and stop force feeding us this trash!
The only one keeping that story alive is Palin. That story was dropped months ago, but that's all this bored, pathetic lier has to keep her name in the press. Enough already! Why the press continues to care about her is unknown, because no one else cares. Please, just let her fade away, her spotlight has been turned off for months now. Just let her and us, rest in peace.
Palin, Don't you have a state to run (into the ground that is)? Don't you have a family to take care of (yeah, what a joke)?
Most of us don't care about you have to say, shut up already!!
I wondered to myself, what other kind of countries would they be. She constantly spoke of PE Obama and Bill Ayres and claiming that he was a "Pal" to a terrorist. She claims that Bloggers lie. She is the center of her world and the problem is that she cannot come out of that center because that bridge that would be her transport out was not completed. After funding to that bridge to nowhere was cut off, then she says, "THANKS BUT NO THINKS". To late then lady. It is already gone. It's kind of like saying "ABORT, ABORT" to stop the car from running off the cliff after it is already airborne. My mom used to tell us the old expression of, "It's better people think you a fool than open your mouth and remove all doubt" . Well she is beyond that so now she should go someplace and hide for a while and read some news papers and or law journals including Supreme Court decisions.
Jim January 13th, 2009 2:56 pm ET
Keep it up Sarah!! I hope you get so far under their skin that they scratch themselves bloody! You guessed it!! I'm not a liberal!
No, you are an idiot
Is Sarah Palin relevant to ANYTHING anymore? Sarah....you were made fun of for your comment about Russia being viewed from Alaska because you made the statement as if seeing the other country strengthens your relationship and your foreign policy credentials with it. Some Key West-erners can see Cuba from Key West, but that doesn't qualify the Florida governor for the executive office!
No one wants you in office now. No one will want you in office in 2012, or 2016 either. You ARE the weakest link – GOODBYE!
For those that keep saying that Palin is a "breath of fresh air"...I agree. We need something to make us laugh with all that is going wrong in the world. Palin's hypocrisy and idiocy is just that breath of fresh, comedic, air that we need.
I pity some of you. And, to you liberals out there, quit pointing out her faults. She might try to fix/hide them. We really just want her to stay as "real" (AAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA) as her followers see her.
Sarah, I know what you're trying to do here – snow everybody, trying to explain your way out, make us think you're not as dumb as we KNOW you are. As the saying goes YOU NEVER GET A SECOND CHANCE TO MAKE A FIRST IMPRESSION.
So, stay up there in Alaska, be thankful for how far you got with the little you have to offer and sshhhhhhhhhhhhh
Sarah: Please ...Please just go away...stop the whining and go back to governing Alaska.
The American people do NOT LIKE YOU!!!! Get over it!!!!
Why is CNN bringing her back and back all of the time....STOP this nonsense!
There are other better stories to tell.
Were there any turkies behind her this time?
every time i hear her, i cringe and for other reasons then just the obvious–she sets women back 50 yrs, i was offended for women when she was picked and i had listened to her after the inital speech at the convention–she is so low on the intelligence scale that to have ever thought she could be this nations #2 in command is just beyond the pale. and further she tried to make the point in a recent interview that the dems would have loved her–she needs a drug test....and maybe we should give candidates some type of intelligence tests BEFORE they can run–you know like current events...etc
Yes... the bloggers are always the bad guys.
Last year in my country there was publication in one of the biggest newspapers that was explaining that all bloggers are evil, mad loonatics, who had no social life and they are homosexuals.
I'm serious.
If somebody wants the article, i will send it.
And i will translate it of course, because i'm sure that you don't speak bulgarian.
Why dont we ask her to cough up a check for the hundreds of thousands she spent on clothing and hair? She has made a total fool of herself and I wish she would just go away. Anyone that thinks that idiot had any business being the VP of this country is just as much a fool!
Maybe she should go do porn, then maybe people might wanna see her on a TV screen!
Gee Sarah, all you gotta do to stop the rumors about Trig is release a certified copy of his birth certificate. Why won't you do that??? Mmmmmm???
Who is Tripp's brother? LOL
@ LC If you really don't care why do you keep reading articles about her!! Let's face it folks if you really weren't interested in our Future President Sarah Palin you would not be reading about her. You call leave comments like go away, and we don't care, but you don't really want her to go away do you? No of course not, because then all you pathetic bloggers would have nothing to do.....
Wow Palin v. Obama I think that's her mindset but I hav to say Sarah has no chance!
This strange woman has already gone past her 15 minutes.
Turn off the mic and tell her to try learning how to be a governor.
The other night they showed a segment of a recently interview
of her from a right wing show. On the screen with her face was
a line across the bottom that said (ironically) HOW BARACK OBAMA
WON THE ELECTION. That says it all. Move on....nothing to see here...
Sarah Palin – ignorance and arrogance combined.
Sarah you give me gas, go take a hike on your bridge to nowhere...and have a sip of vodka from your Russian neighbors
Could someone tell Mrs Palin she need stop yapping at every foolish statement that is made!!!
Why is she still talking??
She has never – ever – been to far western Alaska. She can only see Russia from her imagination.
Is this the same Palin who was going to balance the federal budget in 4 years, per her Hail Mary Promise near the election? That was part of her campaign stump speech for a few days until apparently even she realized what a joke her statement was. Palin is no different than the bloggers she accuses of lying...
Alaska country trash? Yep!
I am really getting fed up with CNN Ticker. All the comments I make are "Awaiting Moderation". I don't know if this is relevant or not, but I'm not an Obama supporter at all, but I am not rude and nasty with my comments, just not pro Obama.
Palin is pathetic. She symbolizes the last gasp of the neo-con reigeme. A movement away from the social right will restore credibility to the party. Let the religious extremists and the other social right wingers form their own party.
Sarah,53 percent of Americans you couldn't fool. Quite seriously you need to get mental health treatment. I believe you are narssitic and incapable realizing that you were one of the causes that lead to Mccains defeat. You have unrealistic high opinion of yourself and you believe that once you became the VP candiditate all the americans fall in love with you, just the way you are in love with yourself. For once the media did their job in disclosing that you unworthy and not qualified for the office you were running for. You are not want our country needs and wants! I believe Mccain loves this country and he knows now he made a huge mistake by picking you as his running mate. But you Sarah on the other hand is one sick hockey mom. Instead of Country First,it should have been Palin First.
Alikeness is NOT a word, Sarah
Sit down and shut up Tundra Trash, your 15 minutes is long over!
Learn how to speak correct English or shut up.
Go Palin Go, Keep it up and keep telling the world you represent the Republican Party.
Sarah, Why do you insist on opening your mouth and confirming to all of the world how ill- equipped you were/are to be a candidate for higher office? I have a suggestion: Shut mouth. Please, shut mouth. Take responsibility for your actions, such as being willing to put your family under a microscope, and quit blaming everyone else. You made it all happen. All of this goes to prove that "ordinary" people are not what we want for presidential candidates. We want super smart people who can speak well and who command respect from other leaders on substance, not style. Stop blaming the media. All they did was hold up the window for the American public to look through. What they saw was you and it made us all shudder. If you are not a strong swimmer, Sarah, stay away from the deep end.
I switched parties when obama won. Sara Palin did well. The tone in the nation prevented any republican from being elected. We all know that.
"But Palin said she had adopted a philosophical attitude on the downside of the spotlight. "You have to let it go,” she said. “Even hard news sources, credible news sources — the comment about, you can see Russia from Alaska. You can! You can see Russia from Alaska. Something like that — a factual statement that was taken out of context and mocked — what you have to do is let that go."
SARAH. TAKE YOUR OWN ADVICE AND LET IT GO, ALREADY. The 15 minutes is over. Get back to the job you're being paid to do in Alaska and shut up. You're two months past being old news.
Please do not cover this woman anymore. The sooner we all ignore her, the sooner we can be free of her 1/2 sentences and butchering of the English language. Buy her a "G" please!!!!! She's an IDIOT!!!
Hmmm, who is worse, "pathetic bloggers who lie" or so-called "news papers" that lie (i.e., the Enquirer? She is REALLY scraping the bottom for attention now!) or pathetic, undereducated politicians who lie at the potential expense of having an inept leader like Sarah Palin with the potential of sitting in the big chair and making decisions that would affect way more than the 600,000 some-odd people who live in her state in the back of beyond. Every time she opens her mouth she digs herself deeper. It is entertaining by this point.
As a "CEO of a state, and a 44 year old woman with a lot of great life experience" – per Sarah Palin... You would think that she would know to end a sentence with "you" not "ya". If you want to be a leader, it helps if you sound like one.
Wow, Jim is the model angry Republican. Jim, that is why your party is dying. Now, go cling to your guns and religion.
She is like a bad dream that never ends.
It is TRIG gate
I hope they never stop, this really is funnier than the Springer show, I would pay to see Palin on TV, maybe she could duke it out with Rosanne Barr over someone else's husband
Very funny, I absolutely love you Palin, you are the gift that keeps on throwing us a bone, don't retreat from the spotlight
Long live Palin, run in the next Presidential election, and absolutely under no circumstance stop denying that TRIG is who evers baby, because that is very important to clear up
"But Palin said she had adopted a philosophical attitude on the downside of the spotlight. "You have to let it go,” she said."
THEN LET IT GO, SARAH! She is giving Webster's new material/behavior with which to DEFINE the word "Pathetic" (as if her "performance" during campaign season didn't give them enough to use).
Back to the trailer dear......
Hmm, in a perfect world this story would begin very differently. More along the lines of:
Bloggers slam 'boring, idiotic, annoying, pathetic, hypocrite attention mongerer who needs to be quiet and do her elected job'.
"She'd be callin' some of the shots...." then they wouldn't have picked 'ya, honey! Perhaps that would have been better...ESQUIRE, a former girlie mag, the perfect place for a has-been, washed up beauty queen.
Why You Want Her to Stop,. Please Continue Sarah,. You Are Cheap Comedy entertaining us.
You know Girl, The American People Will Accept to Put Monkey in Public Office Ahead of You,.
Hide Yourself, Game Is Over, Just Try to keep your place in Alaska,. Beleive me if a teenager run against you, he will win !!
Palin, go home, leave, you lost the election (thank God) you were and are a joke. A beauty pageant contestant running for office. The biggest mistake of many made by John Mcain. Yes you did cost him having any real chance to win. Go back to your igloo let you husband tell you what to do and try and keep your daughter from running the streets.
NOW PALIN IS ATTACKING THE BLOGGERS . . .
PALIN IS A TRUE IDIOT, AND SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO BE IN THE PUBLIC!
They bug ya' especially when they're right about 'cha!
I think the only one who is sorry that poor little Sarah was not on the winning ticket ( we can thank our lucky stars for that ) is Tina Fey. But if Palin keeps up this whining, SNL will have huge ratings for as long as Palin insists on hanging around. Hey, times are tough, we need a clown and Sarah is the perfect match.
I really don't give a darn who Trig's mom is. Why does CNN care? It's the media that won't let this woman go away. What blog sites is she reading? I mean, who really cares? Gov. Palin needs to get past this and move on with governng the state of Alaska.
Cheer up everybody, in 5 years she'll be in People magazine on one of those "whatever happened to..." stories. She's an aberration bred by a time of great turmoil when the Republican pseudo-Christian Right felt the mood of the country going against them, and she was their lame attempt to get the attention of the electorate. The fact that she is illiterate and personally unfettered by a single contemplative thought seems to have escaped them. Thank God the electorate was not fooled again.
Govenor Palin – GO AWAY...if we wanted to keep seeing your face we would have voted for you. Go back to Alaska and look out your window at Russia.
I am getting concerned about this lady.
Is she mentally unstable?
Why does she keep speaking out about trivial things?
Can we get her to Dr. Phil for an intervention.
I can't stop thinking....how did McCain made this gruesome and destructive kind of mistake.....why was it Sarah Palin....how did she become a victim of it all....and now McCain goes to the grave with a mistake i dont think he can forgive himself....but the most sad part is....Sarah Palin perpetuate in ignorance and whining....i hope she doesn't end up destroying the little she has left.
Keep your eye on the prize sweetie!
PALIN/COULTER 2012
We love you Sarah, even if the liberal media doesn't! We will paciently wait your return to the political stage. The Republicans will need your star power in 2012 to clean up any messes left by Obama and his congressional and senate democrats.
14 minutes and 59 seconds ... Palin time is just about over, but thanks for entertaining us.
"Bored, annonymous, pathetic" oops, sounds like the pot is calling the kettle black.
Sarah.
Seriously.
I realize you are very attractive. That's all your good for.
Didn't she use that "seeing Russian from Alaska" as her foreign policy credential? To put it in context, it was even more hilarious than Tina Fey's skid. I guess she really has no clue why people mocked her. So sad!
The election is over, Gov. Palin. Let it go and move on!
She needs to go away, and stop commenting. She is hurting herself greatly. She is saying all the WRONG things AGAIN!
"SHE WISHED SHE HAD CALLED SOME OF THE SHOTS?"
Though I am sure he is disappointed in his loss, McCain better be glad he didn't win. She would have found a way to kill him.
This woman didn't want to be VP she wanted to President.
I'm lovin' it!! Keep it up Sarah! You keep diggin' your hole deeper and deeper. Everytime she does an interview it only goes to prove she has no brains, no talent, no political savvy, no integrity. Let her talk and talk and talk... and soon she'll melt away.
I forgot the "who lie bit. Sorry Sarah truthfulness wasn't your strong suit during the campaign.
Gov. Palin is reaching the point of desperation. She is totally unaware of her inability to talk people into believing how great she is because she has spent all of her life up north where a mediocre level of intelligence seems to be genious to most people. Listen to us Governor, we don't care, please be quiet, be who you are, where you are, and leave the rest of us alone. If people want you to be their leader, they can move to Alaska and make you their Queen for life. There is plenty of room for a few thousand more people and if not you can do a one on one trade, send us a moose and we'll send you a subject for your kingdom.
this is the last time i comment on a palin story either until 2012, or ever again. I am sick and tired of her talking about the media. She needs to realize that her fame and popularity ended the day she talked to Katie Couric, and she needs to realize that she lost the election. I am sick and tired of hearing her say stupid things to get attention. You lost Palin, GET OVER IT!
I urge CNN to stop reporting on anything about a Sarah Palin comment. It can't keep falling in to her little trap to get attention.
This is my last Palin comment. I've begun to take the first steps toward total boycott of her mouth. I advise everyone else to follow. Let's override her together.
"Bored, pathetic, anonymous..... who lie" oops the pot is calling the kettle black. Sorry Sarah but truthfulness was not your strong suit during the campaign.
How does Todd Palin live with this woman? I would not want to see there arguments/fights.
Once again Palin is missing the point. The issue was not TRUE or FALSE can you see Russia.
The issue Gov. Palin is that it does not constitute Foreign Policy experience.
Aaaah, people do indeed love to see ignorance, stupidity...makes them look gOOD...LOL..I dont care for Palin either, and like most of you, wish she would go away, but, as long as people keep ranting and raving at her or about her, CNN will keep publishing every article they can find about her..way to stop it, is for all of us ( yes, me TOO) to stop "contributating" to this charade..just read article if you want to, but, dont comment..and thats exactly what I intend to do..this is my LAST comment on her...
bye bye Palin
Where is the hospital and newpaper birth reference.....do not newpapers place birth ads?.....there was no child born to Palin on the date she said he was born....hello....
There is a very good reason why Palin is #1 in the year's Fifty Most Loathsome People List. I mean, who can admire ANYone who cannot utter a simple declarative sentence. This is one "star" that cannot burn out too quickly. Oh, and the "not liberal" person – your heirs and THEIR heirs will be paying for the past eight years for many years to come.
she just continues to lie about anything and everything to promote herself and make the rest of the world look bad. Want to know how to tell if Sarah is lying? You can tell she is lying when her mouth is moving.
So they refused to cooperate with the local newspaper reporter who was trying to debunk the conspiracy theory? Huh. I wonder why?
These comments are a stitch! You can feel waves of insecurity coming off those die-hard take-no-prisoners activist types desperately wanting the rest of us to stop pointing out that they completely undeservedly and repeatedly lied about, mocked, belittled, and ridiculed Palin for the crime of being a Republican woman! Keep reminding them, CNN!
Why is she still talking about the past? The election is over.
Move on and talk about the future of Alaska.
If she was a Governor and a child was born, would not the newspapers have a big write-up about her child being born?....check the Alaskan newspapers....not a word about her giving birth....what does that tell you?
Palin GO AWAY you are BAD for America
If she can't stand the heat........
GO AWAY, FAR, FAR AWAY, EVEN TO RUSSIA ITS JUST IN EYESITE!
"Bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie annoy me…."
Hypocrite! This lying, pathetic woman has some nerve.
Sarah is simply a revisionist Christian. Let us hope she keeps it up for a long time, so that she can lead her grand old party back to prominence. She is one deluded individual. That is for certain.
So who is Trigg's mom, anyway?
For someone who "hates" the media, you are sure spending alopt of time talking to them, Sarah. And all this stupidity about she was asked "gotcha" questions, well, answer the question. Folks, let's try this out:
Media: Michael in Houston Texas, you say you are in Houston but are you from Houston?
Michael in Houston: No media am a transplant.
See how easy it is to answer a question….Truthfully!
Sarah you are a joke and an embarresment to this country, go away!
Sarah Palin gave birth to a genetically defective baby. It is she who should be ashamed of anything.
She's qualified to hold the country's highest office, yet she cannot handle simple questions from a reporter. She's a pit-bull, yet she's flustered and frustrated when someone implies she's a hayseed who doesn't read. She displays a fundamental lack of knowledge, yet blames others for putting her into situations that demonstrate it.
She's definitely leadership material.
cnn, we don't care for sarah palin.
You guys are the pathetic ones; beating up on Sarah Palin. How original. CNN chummed this article so morons like you would bite at it. Things a little slow at the newsdesk today CNN?
No Jim, you're just a simpleton like you idol.
To DebM in Allentown, PA et al. on this Comment board: Many of you accuse Sarah of lying – please give us concrete evidence of this:
Palin’s comments about Obama “palling around with terrorists” have some substance, as he was/is friends with Bill Ayers (if you do some research you will find out that Ayers was “more than just another neighbor” to Obama – but if you are calling Palin a liar for her statement, then what are you calling pres-elect. Obama ? Oh wait, he’s perfect...)
Even her statement about putting the Alaskan govt. plane on eBay was factual (and if you get to the heart of it, it her reason was to get rid of a luxury of the previous administration that she could do without…)
It appears that many of those writing on this board are some of the “bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie” of whom Palin was referring to. In this age where iReporters and bloggers are looked on and given credibility by CNN as reputable sources, their comments do become “media”. Shame on CNN.com & its comment moderators for making such anonymous people so prominent! I think one of main besmirchings the McCain-Palin received was courtesy the comment moderators on cnn.com (who seem to be the perfect stealth Obama operatives…)
So to those of you who are calling her the “Queen of Lies” and a liar: Put up or shut-up.
And I certainly don’t mind reading about Sarah Palin!
I wish she would just shut up & go kill some more moose & turkeys
After more than 4 hours (!) my comment (see below) is still "awaiting moderation" by the CNN editors. Maybe it wasn't liberal enough for them (?) .....
Like her or not, she is absolutely right. Many, mostly liberal, bloggers did, in fact, take many of her quotes out of context. For all of us not to believe that Trig was her son was an insult to her; and for those of you who took the "I can see Russia from my back yard" statement as ridiculous, check your geography books – you CAN see Russia from Alaska!
This woman is as nutty as a fruitcake.
...just like the media elected Obama, they pummeled Bush and now Sarah Palin. They are disgusting people to even ask a question about Trig's parents....where do they come up with this stuff. Well, I am sure it won't be long for them to pick on Obama either.....some of it is starting already...infighting about the latest funds released by Bush at Obama's request....the house dems cannot leave it alone and are not above more fighting within their own party...and it does sound like Obama is trying to do the right thing....and he's not even in office yet.
Your comment is awaiting moderation.
So was there an answer in her ramblings? Regardless the page has turned, the fifteen minutes are up. Are the people of Alaska shaking in their boots each time she opens her mouth and they realize that they elected her to office … I hope so.
CNN- Let's make a deal-
If you can get her as a contestant on "Are you smarter than a 5th grader" and she wins the million dollars, you can keep reporting on her.
If not- please make her go away. She had her 15 minutes of fame.
I'd rather watch Paris Hilton's dogs take a bathroom break? can't you cover that?
The CEO of her state? That is how she sees herself?
This woman is nuts and she does not let go. I thank GOD McCain did not win. Has anyone at CNN sees what goes on the Alaska blogs like at adn.com? It is wild-it is havoc-I think Palin is a drama queen still in high school like emotionally because her nutty comments are creating more craziness each day and yet she continues.
Just Go Away Sarah.....
I will shore up shore up the real truth about gotcha Sarah Palin. Most of the racist white men and women are madly in LOVE with Palin! Reason? She is a gun tooting, retarded, simple and never mind about the english language! To the racists she oooz sex ,racism and gives the impression of keeping minorties in the toilet.! Her supporters knows she is dumb but they beleive she would take this country back to the 50's. McCain used her as his prop but it didn't work. White skin and stupidity doesn't work in this country anymore. She can forget about 2012 because, most republicans can't stand her. When she opens her mouth she reminds me of a toilet. To James + Ja (same person).I hear that you are retarded! what are you doing on this website?
If any of you Palin supporters are interested in facts check out andrewhalcro.com to see how your "American Idol" is running Alaka into the ground, has fufilled NONE of her campaign promises and is bankrupting the state. Mr. Halcro is not someone blogging from his parents basement, he ran as an idependent against Mrs. Palin and unlike her understands Alaskan issues.
My only question is this; "Who the hell would name their kid 'Trig', anyway?"
Without going into obvious detail, it would have been both physically and medically impossible for her daughter to have been the mom of Trig. That was nothing more than a lie. More lies and fabrications have been said and repeated about her by the uninformed that it is pathetic.
This will probably stay in limbo forever as I am positive that CNN screens these comments so that only the most vulgar are posted.
@ Jim, yes, you can see Russia from Alaska, only on a remote Aleutian island where the residents have never seen Mrs. Palin and MOST have never HEARD of her. Get the Cheetos out of your ears and GET INFORMED!!!!!
Sarah and Bush are two peas in a pod; neither will ever admit to doing anything wrong and both are among the most unpopular politicians in America.
"She does herself a disservice to even mention it really. You've got to plow through that. You've got to know what you're getting into."
Palin says "any kind of perceived whine about that excess criticism...I think, man, that doesn't do us any good, women in politics, women in general, wanting to progress this country."
SO Sarah and Sarah fans what do you think now? Looks to me like Palin is hurting progress by continuing to "whine".
She is so hot. She's definitely a GILF! But if she wishes to stay considered as such, she should really just shut up.
You subhumans who are blogging your lies and hate against Sarah are just proving her point. If you can't stand her why do you even bother – I find it hilarious that you keep on going with all the disgusting remarks. some of you say – oh I just will never blog another thing, oh I can't stand to read anymore about Palin, along with other comments and yet you keep on doing it. she must really get under your skin. I love it and hope she keeps it up. And by the way the media is loving it too because they keep it on here. And you all are just sucking it up.
"Jim" – not just a simpleton, but a bored, anonymous pathetic blogger apologist for Palin. That's even worse than the basement-dwelling blogger type. Honestly.
This is a losing battle for her – reminding everyone about how she was so diminished by the media only reminds everyone about how little substance there was to begin with.
She'll be on "Bad Girls Club" next season. What a joke.
Sarah, stop talking to the media!!! It is better for everyone to think your a fool than to open you mouth and prove them all right. Do yourself, and your family a favor and SHUT UP!!!!
Jim, when was the last time you saw Russia from Anchorage?
The fact is she was a "not ready for primetime player." McCain's vetting was poor. Hopefully she will be ready in 4 or 8 years to mount a serious political challenge.
I am a Republican and behind closed doors you can believe that the majority of us thought she wasn't qualified and prayed if elected she would have enough time before asked to take over. But she is cute, you have to admit that.
who cares? she's trying to stay in the media spotlight but nobody cares.
I watched part of the confirmation hearings today with Hillary Clinton and the one thing I can offer to Ms. Palin. Go back and study, and watch carefully the questioning that Mrs. Clinton went through and when you think you can answer questions as intelligently and with the knowledge behind your answers - then return to the political arena you think you deserve.
People, listen to yourselves, or at least read what you say after you write it. For goodness sakes, the Media is going to her. Maybe she has a point, why is it that we know more about her clothes and baby-mamma-ishness (I doubt that is a word either) than we do about Obama's so-called ability to reach across the aisle ? With a strict party line vote percentage of 96%, he was ranked 12th in Senate. As a matter of fact, the top 32 partisan Senators were all Democrats. McCain was ranked 65th. Or how Obama in his short two years in the Senate rose to #2 in the list of Senators who had accepted money from Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac lobbyists ? Second only to Chris. Dodd ! Whereas McCain was ranked 62nd ? Or how about how Obama is credited with getting $97.4 million in pork barrel spending for his state, and McCain took $0 ? Or how he sat in a church pew for 20 years and learned or at least heard nothing his minister was preaching ? or how HE got rich by providing a product that people wanted – his books – and actually used capitalism as a method of redistributing wealth of others to himself ( applause here), rather than depending on taxes to do it ? Capitalism seemed to work for him. Or any other questions that the media SHOULD have asked him but did not. For fear of hearing the answer ? for fear of exposing their mentor ? out of hatred for another party ? We all have hope, we all could use some changes, but honestly, you know nothing about the person you put into office. I HOPE it works out ok.
I'm sure if the media stopped paying attention to her everyone really would let it go.
Palin/Coulter in 2012? Bob, you are in some serious need of help...
When she decided to start "callin' some of the shots" she picked up the phone thinking she was talking to the president of France and she totally got her butt pranked!!!
Seriously, I'm sad she still even has credibility. Only with the hard core of her base. And honestly, if that's what excites them, it doesn't speak high of what intellectually stimulates the base.
Palin is a completely clueless idiot. The less we hear about her the better and maybe she will just disappear if we ignore her.
Does she somehow think that whining on and on about how her campaign was screwed over by the media is going to win anyone over at this point? That campaign screwed itself with mixed messages and a sore-loser attitude from the very beginning. If she wants to be a part of the GOP and on the ticket in 2012, she would do well to shut up and do her current job well. Let her abilities speak for themselves. Oh, wait . . .
I'm not bored... not anonymous... and don't lie about Sarah Palin!!
She's a complete and total idiot who is completely mired in scandal and questionable decisions. She isn't even capable of going thru a complete interview without saying something stOOpid!!
Funny... she's having such a tough time with the media, yet is trying her best to stay in the media's limelight for as long as possible.
Too bad... if you can't take the heat, stay out of the kitchen!!!
Will this lady ever go away...... she still has nothing of substance to say. Poor Alaska!
All this is just a smoke screen so we don't pay any attention to all the baby seals she clubs, or the mooses she ............(well, you get the picture)
In all truthfulness Palin has achieved so much in such a short time. Here is a list.
TROOPERGATE. In which she used her influence to get her brother in law fired. This is a matter of record.
THE BRIDGE AND ROAD TO NOWHERE. This grand scheme really worked didn't it Sarah dear. what yaz gonna use it for eh?
HER APPALLING PERFORMANCE WITH JOHN MCCAIN who should be run out of town on a rail for subjecting us to this moron.
HER HATEFUL SPEECHES IN WHICH SHE TRIED TO WHIP UP THE MOB. Glad it didn't work, Ive heard better stuff from Anne Coulter,
HOW ABOUT THE $100s OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN CLOTHES SHE KEPT AND WAS SUPPOSED TO RETURN. Still got em haven't yaz...
TRYING TO GET HER FUTURE SON IN LAW (maybe but not if he's wise) JOB WITHOUT QUALIFICATIONS. Don't deny it we've seen the letter in the Alaska newspapers you can't read'
HER LECTURING PEOPLE ABOUT HER MORALS. Didn't teach ya kids though eh. and finally.
HER INTERVIEWS WERE PATHETIC. This is the real reason you wont go on Oprah isn't it.
Luckily if you read all these blogs you will find that about 99% are against her as opposed to 1% for. This means she's done.... I just wish her end would hurry up. Don't forget the next Gubernatorial race in Alaska is next year.. Thank you very much. God Bless America
Just stay away. Or star in a movie call "Sarah does Anchorage".
You know what they say....any attention is better than no attention, even if it's negative attention. It's too bad.
We have a lot to look forward to and a lot to work on over the next 4 years. Let's focus on the positives.
She, herself, can never admit her wrong doings, Bush's wrong doings or the Republican Party's wrong doings......7 days to go....the NEW BEGINNING......
Hay sarah, WOULD YOU LIKE SOME CHEESE WITH YOUR WHINE..
How can we keep the light of stupidity on this person?
Wait the evil corp media who were her supporters is now
her enemy. I hope they continue to report on this phool!
She is the mantra of the sick repubilcans circa 1965!
Where's Tina Fey when you need her?
The biggest problem is in the "world of Palinism". Please go away to the north slope and leave us alone. Enough is enough, no one cares.
I HAVE AND WILL CONTINUE TO SPEAK KINDLY OF PALIN. SHE HAS BEEN DEALT A DIRTY HAND BY ALL THE MEDIA AS WELL AS YOU ALL THAT ARE SPEAKING OUT AGAINST HER SO RUDE. HAVE YOU NEVER MAKE A MISTAKE? TRIG IS A DARLING CHILD A GIFT FROM GOD, ARE YOU SO NARROW MINDED THAT YOU DON'T KNOW THAT, AND THE NEW BABY SHOULD NOT BE PICKED TO DEATH BY THE MEDIA EITHER. IT IS MY HOPE THAT PALIN WILL RUN IN 2012 AND HAVE A GOOD BACKING AND I THINK THAT SHE WILL. THIS HAS BEEN A GOOD EXPERIENCE FOR HER. I HATE TO HEAR THAT MCCAIN SAYS HE IS NOT SURE IF HE WOULD BACK HER OR NOT, IF THAT IS THE CASE WHY DID HE PICK HER? BECAUSE SHE IS SO ATTRACTIVE AND WEARS HER CLOTHES WELL AND LOOKS GREAT WITH HER HAIR WORN UP. LEAVE HER ALONE, SHE HAS A JOB TO DO=LET HER DO IT.
Do you think that any democrat who negiotiated a 60% pay increase wouldn't be under investigation. She continually told lies on the trail about "the digging going on back home." When the pipeline is ten years from starting and the bridge to nowhere that we have her on tape saying she needed in the debate. About selling the airplane on e-bay. She was against teaching advanced sex education in schools and then ends up with the family situation she has. She really needs to stay closer to home for a while and then just go away. I'm not saying she can't be Governor, but don't push this bile on me any more. Some of the people in the "bad areas" have done OK without her so far. Get over yourself.
@ Trish.....why do Republicans confuse TRUTH with "lies and hate"?
"Lies and hate" are what Mrs.Palin espoused on the campaighn trail, TRUTH is the opposite of anything she says.
Be Quiet and go sit down. Your 15 seconds of fame is over. Get used to it.
Yes, Sarah you can be an astornaut because you see a planet. You my dear are an idiot and that is one of your better points. God STFU and return the $150,000 worth of clothes the RNC "let you use and then give them to charity". HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
And we want you to stop hanging with the druggies and start telling the truth for a change. Try it, you might like it. Wasilla drug capital of Alaska and Sarah's home town. My, my ,my.......
AGAIN, the person everyone wants to go away gets MORE COMMENTS than any other story! You liberals crack me up! Do you live and breathe to make nasty comments? Apparently so!
I guess she can't go a week without some media attention. It doesn't seem to have occurred to her that most of us don't give a tinker's curse what she thinks of the bloggers, or for that matter what they think of her, or care about her little tart of a daughter and the hockey stud she couldn't resist – in short, Sarah Palin really doesn't matter any more and that's clearly what's bothering her.
Go away, Sarah, we're all tired of your balonely.
Hahaha... I think Hefner asked her to do a magazine or two...
If ya can't stand da heat git outta da kitchin!
Even "W" doesn't blame the media for him being who he is.
You can always expect some kickback whiplash when the TRUTH hurts huh Ms Palin? I guess if you had helped run a GOOD campain, you might have been in the WH next week, but, you slandered and lied yourself now sleep on it. (I'm pathetic, bored and need some friends so I blog and still disagree with you!) NOT!
Why CNN, why? Why do you, and the media in general, continue to stir this up? It's like you're trying to create news and controversy where none exists. Your job is to report relevant world happenings in an unbiased manner. With articles like these, you're doing neither.
Just do your job.
Um, Sarah, bloggers don't make you dumber than a rock. It's just the way you are.
I too wish Palin would just go away. I am still gun-shy over our 2-time election of Bush, and I feel like the longer she stays in the public eye, the more she will grow on people and we will forget her ineptitude. She may be a nice person, smart woman, etc. but I do not want her in charge of my country!
Palin's excuse in this story about a factual statement that was taken "out of context" and mocked is completely and utterly ridiculous. Her quote: "The comment about, you can see Russia from Alaska. You can! You can see Russia from Alaska. Something like that — a factual statement that was taken out of context and mocked — what you have to do is let that go." This is a completely ridiculous statement because Couric set the context with painstaking and unmistakeable clarity in words even a 5th grader could understand. And she did it twice, rephrasing the question when Palin gave her initial response!
It makes you think Palin doesn't understand what "context" means. If she says something factual like I can see Russia from Alaska to a question like "why are you familiar with Russia", then that clearly doesn't warrant being mocked. However, if she gives that answer to Couric's very intentionally specific question (quoted from the interview transcript) "You've cited Alaska's proximity to Russia as part of your foreign policy experience. What did you mean by that? ", that's a whole different ball game. How can Couric make it any clearer?
Some say Couric is "trapping" Palin or being mean or unfair – that may or may not be debatable, but Couric's motives are entirely irrelevant as she is asking a completely reasonable question of a woman who may have been a heartbeat away from being the leader of our country! Palin could only reasonably feel "trapped" in this situation if she actually believed Alaska's proximity to Russia helped her foreign policy experience or if she feels completely incapable of extracting herself from a situation where she may have misspoke. The reality of the situation is Couric is providing Palin with a chance to provide a sound explanation for her comment or to dismiss it and say, "No, that's not really what I meant." Any politician worth their salt would have no problem getting out of this "tough" trap.
Her answer does not actually answer the question how Alaska's proximity to Russia is part of her foreign policy question. She replies: "...Alaska has a very narrow maritime border between a foreign country, Russia, and, on our other side, the land-boundary that we have with Canada. It's funny that a comment like that was kinda made to … I don't know, you know … reporters.
Couric: Mocked?
Palin: Yeah, mocked, I guess that's the word, yeah.
I can't imagine why a reporter would not follow up for a better answer from Palin here. They are on a long walk talking through a variety of issues – this is not a press conference where candidates can relatively dodge questions from a single reporter by calling on another reporter. So Couric rephrases the question with even more clarity! How can Palin argue her comments are taken out of context?!?
Couric: Well, explain to me why that enhances your foreign-policy credentials.
Palin: Well, it certainly does, because our, our next-door neighbors are foreign countries, there in the state that I am the executive of. And there…
Couric: Have you ever been involved in any negotiations, for example, with the Russians?
Palin: We have trade missions back and forth, we do. It's very important when you consider even national security issues with Russia. As Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border. It is from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, Russia, because they are right there, they are right next to our state.
So, right there, Couric pinpoints Palin's "foreign policy credentials". "Trade missions" back and forth, which Palin somehow feels are linked to national security issues. It seems like she's "sending out" people to "keep an eye on them" too, whatever that means. She might want to check with the CIA to make sure she's allowed to reveal that national security tidbit.
It's not really that Palin is outwitted by Couric. It's more that she seems completely oblivious to that fact that she could not provide a reasonable answer to a clear, simple question and that she feels persecuted by the press unfairly for doing so. The fact is she provided a completely ridiculous answer and looks even more ridiculous trying to blame the press for taking her comments "out of context".
How do we let these people get away with it??? I would love to Couric follow up and ask Palin to read the transcript and explain how her answer is out of context. But then Couric would be portrayed as mean. This is her job. Why do we blame the press for asking tough questions – really??? Look at the mess we're in because people are unwilling to persistently ask tough questions (and our leaders are resistant to answer them). I must stop as this truly makes my blood boil.
I like seeing all these Palin interviews. She's cute, powerful, and not very smart. What's not to like?
Who we blaming today Sarah?
Give her credit though... she's qualified to spot a liar.... being such a huge one herself.
PLEASE STOP GIVING THIS WOMAN A FORUM TO SPOUT THIS CHILDISH CRAP! THIS IS NOT NEWS. When she actually DOES something of merit or makes politically effective actions or commits actual or political suicide – then THAT is news. This drivel is NOT news – period.
Are you smarter than Sarah Palin?
CNN STOP!
This not a printable story.
This wouldn't even make the Alaska news services.
Let her go.
Quit making her a spectacle even if she is initiating it.
I cannot understand why Palin continues to bring herself into the limelight unless, of course, she enjoys it!!!! She has to be the most pathetic person I have ever heard who has had anything to do with politics.
She should be dealing with the problems in Alaska. She is, after all, supposed to be their Governer or does she not realize this fact.
