[...] pm (cyberliterature) (blog, cnn, counter-blogging, Internet, news, politics, sarah palin, social) CNNPolitics.com | Palin slams 'bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie' (CNN) — Sarah Palin fired a new salvo in her war on the media, unloading in a new interview on [...]

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.

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.

Are you smarter than Sarah Palin?

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.

Who we blaming today Sarah?

Give her credit though… she's qualified to spot a liar…. being such a huge one herself.

I like seeing all these Palin interviews. She's cute, powerful, and not very smart. What's not to like?

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.

Um, Sarah, bloggers don't make you dumber than a rock. It's just the way you are.

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.

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!

If ya can't stand da heat git outta da kitchin!

Even "W" doesn't blame the media for him being who he is.

Hahaha… I think Hefner asked her to do a magazine or two…

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.

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!

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…….

Be Quiet and go sit down. Your 15 seconds of fame is over. Get used to it.

@ 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.

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.

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.

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.

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?

Hay sarah, WOULD YOU LIKE SOME CHEESE WITH YOUR WHINE..

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……

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.

Just stay away. Or star in a movie call "Sarah does Anchorage".

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

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)

Will this lady ever go away…… she still has nothing of substance to say. Poor Alaska!

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!!!

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 . . .

Palin is a completely clueless idiot. The less we hear about her the better and maybe she will just disappear if we ignore her.

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/Coulter in 2012? Bob, you are in some serious need of help…

I'm sure if the media stopped paying attention to her everyone really would let it go.

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 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.

who cares? she's trying to stay in the media spotlight but nobody cares.

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.

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.

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!!!!

She'll be on "Bad Girls Club" next season. What a joke.

"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.

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.

She is so hot. She's definitely a GILF! But if she wishes to stay considered as such, she should really just shut up.

"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".

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.

@ 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!!!!!

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.

My only question is this; "Who the hell would name their kid 'Trig', anyway?"

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.

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?

Just Go Away Sarah…..

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.

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?

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.

…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.

This woman is as nutty as a fruitcake.

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!

I wish she would just shut up & go kill some more moose & turkeys

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!

No Jim, you're just a simpleton like you idol.

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?

cnn, we don't care for sarah palin.

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.

Sarah Palin gave birth to a genetically defective baby. It is she who should be ashamed of anything.

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!

So who is Trigg's mom, anyway?

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.

"Bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie annoy me…."
Hypocrite! This lying, pathetic woman has some nerve.

GO AWAY, FAR, FAR AWAY, EVEN TO RUSSIA ITS JUST IN EYESITE!

If she can't stand the heat……..

Palin GO AWAY you are BAD for America

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?

Why is she still talking about the past? The election is over.

Move on and talk about the future of Alaska.

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!

So they refused to cooperate with the local newspaper reporter who was trying to debunk the conspiracy theory? Huh. I wonder why?

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.

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.

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….

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

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.

"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.

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.

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.

I forgot the "who lie bit. Sorry Sarah truthfulness wasn't your strong suit during the campaign.

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.

"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.

She needs to go away, and stop commenting. She is hurting herself greatly. She is saying all the WRONG things AGAIN!

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!

Sarah.

Seriously.

I realize you are very attractive. That's all your good for.

"Bored, annonymous, pathetic" oops, sounds like the pot is calling the kettle black.

14 minutes and 59 seconds … Palin time is just about over, but thanks for entertaining us.

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.

Keep your eye on the prize sweetie!

PALIN/COULTER 2012

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

They bug ya' especially when they're right about 'cha!

NOW PALIN IS ATTACKING THE BLOGGERS . . .

PALIN IS A TRUE IDIOT, AND SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO BE IN THE PUBLIC!

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.

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 !!

"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.

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'.

Back to the trailer dear……

"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).

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

She is like a bad dream that never ends.

Wow, Jim is the model angry Republican. Jim, that is why your party is dying. Now, go cling to your guns and religion.

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.

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.

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!!!

"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.

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.

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.

Go Palin Go, Keep it up and keep telling the world you represent the Republican Party.

Learn how to speak correct English or shut up.

Sit down and shut up Tundra Trash, your 15 minutes is long over!

Alikeness is NOT a word, Sarah

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.

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.

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.

Alaska country trash? Yep!

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…

She has never – ever – been to far western Alaska. She can only see Russia from her imagination.

Why is she still talking??

Could someone tell Mrs Palin she need stop yapping at every foolish statement that is made!!!

Sarah you give me gas, go take a hike on your bridge to nowhere…and have a sip of vodka from your Russian neighbors

Sarah Palin – ignorance and arrogance combined.

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…

Wow Palin v. Obama I think that's her mindset but I hav to say Sarah has no chance!

@ 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…..

Who is Tripp's brother? LOL

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???

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!

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.

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

Were there any turkies behind her this time?

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.

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

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.

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!

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

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.

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!!

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.

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!

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…

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.

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.

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.

She is a moron

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.

ahhh Palin- what a good laugh, nice break from job hunting and figuring out how I'm gonna cover my bills come next month

GO

BACK

TO

ALASKA. . .

GOODBYE!

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.

The only future interviews given by Sarah Palin that would interest me, would be those conducted by employees of Larry Flint or Hugh Hefner.

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!

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.

Please make her go away!

Yeah! Those liars… accusing her of palling around with terrorists!

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.

I'm reminded of an old saying, "It takes one, to know one!"

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.

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.

Palin is a total disaster. A big why bother.

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!!

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?

The Media and Democratic Party are a bunch of idiots. Most of you who are commenting on this board are clue less.

She's now attacking us – bloggers! The woman needs to go on a tack and…………………..

Palin, u suck! point that finger at yourself. You ruined the campaign no one else. stop blaming people.

How do you know if you haven't thought about the issues? If you support Sarah Palin.

Jeannie

President Elect- Obama deserved some respect, Palin's comments: Palling around with terrorist, socialist, just a community organier
WHERE IS THE RESPECT!!!!!!!!

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?

Go Palin. Screw the rest of you libtards.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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?

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.

she is pathetic. really. i hope the rebubs do use her, it will insure another win for the dems….go palin!!

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 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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.

You go girl!

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.

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.

why am I supposed to care what Sarah Palin has to say about anything? Did the 2012 campaign start without me noticing?

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.

Please stop with all this mess, Palin you will not get into office again!!!! Oh lord I hope not!!!!

If you want to see a liar, look i the mirror, go away.

Just shut up, will ya?!

Keep lying Kitty Litter!

when i hear "pathetic" in context with Palin, only one thing comes to mind!

Obama and Biden both vote for the "bridge to nowhere" funding.

Lie?…Let me think…Oh yeah, the definition of "lie" is when a politician's lips are moving!

this stresses me out. there are more important things happening then hearing her talk about this still. she's so media hungry.

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.

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

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!!

Brace yourselves. She will be back in 4 years.

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.

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!!!

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.

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

Let's throw our shoes at this wench.

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!!!

Rather have pathetic bloggers who lie than scheming politicians who lie. The latter lies tend to get a lot of innocent people killed.

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?

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.

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.

My grandmother is an idiot!

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.

All that stupid just can't fit in one person so she has to let it out all over national media.

All of her interviews were done for her own self-defense. Lets talk about
the political issues, Sarah ?

Yeh baby! Cry me some more hick tears. Clueless trailer-trash women are hot!!!!

she is the child of a female dog… and a stupid one at that!

Isn't it funny that she never had a problem with bloggers spreading lies about Obama

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.

Hasn't this ignorant bimbo already had her fifteen minutes?

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…

"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.

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!

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.

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!

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!

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!

I think Sara Palin is a nice person, and I sometimes think the world forgets that.

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.

Sarah
Go ahead and build that bridge, cross it, and stay there !

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!

As long as we keep giving her the attention, she'll never leave us alone.

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.

Totally obvious that a good portion of the blogs on this page are the same person leaving comments with different initials. Grow up.

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.

wow, she looks like she spends more time defending herself than running her state, anyone else see that?

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….

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.

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?

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!

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.

"Caribou Barbie," thanks for relieving my boredom.

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

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.

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.

"Whaa, whaa, whaa. I media didn't let me be President, I mean Vice President. Whaa, whaa whaa. " Sharah get over your self.

And she still hasn't provided any medical records to disprove anything ….

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."

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Who cares what she has to say? CNN needs to stop giving her a forum.

Can you imagine four years of this? I've got to wonder what the other choice for Alaska governor was.

Please go away. I have never been repulsed by any politician as I have been sarah palin. God help the GOP.

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.

The more this women opens her mouth, the more she puts her foot in it.

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.

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.

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.

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.

WINK WINK

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.

Sarah is so hot when she's whining!

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?

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.

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??

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

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.

she is a great woman!

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.

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).

What's pathetic is a political never-was lashing out at average citizens in a desperate attempt to claw back into the spotlight.

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

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.

Boo-hoo-frickin'-hoo!

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!

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.

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.

Please, please, please, please stop reporting on Sarah Palin…if we forget about her, maybe she will go away?

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!

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.

GO AWAY!!! YOU LOST!!! GET OVER IT!!!

Boring, anonymous liars. If this isn't the pot calling the kettle black.

Did some of you get layed off already or are you working from India?

Sarah Palin

The gift that keeps on giving….

Laugh-in "How velly interesting but stupid"

Is this story in replacement or in relief of all the problems we have.

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.

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!

PLEASE GO AWAY! PLEASE!!!!
GEEZ

I love Palin and can't wait to meet her next month!

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.

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.

Sarah Palin just doesn't get it!

Clearly, being gracious in neither the prior VP nomination nor defeat of the same is in her capacity.

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?

Anyone want to comment about the woman Obama has been e-mailing on his blackberry??

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!

Go away! You will stop at nothing to keep your name in the news. Go play with your son and Grandson!

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!

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.

oh shut up, sarah

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?

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.

Maybe she should go be to being a journalist!

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!

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.

Sarah, you need a public relations person to handle you. You are destroying yourself.

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?

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.

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!

Cute how CNN always posts the anti-Palin, anti-Republican comments.

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.

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.

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

At last she has come out of the closet! ann coulter's long lost sister! what a pair of bookends.

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.

Every day I thank God more that she's not our next Vice President.

We all know that legitimate journalism died during this election!

And smart does does not mean wise!

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.

and i thought i wanted paris hilton to go away.

Sara Palin was the answer to a lot of our prayers.

Thank you God for Sara and thank you for making her republican.

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.

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!

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.

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.

Oh, this worthless woman has GOT to go away!!!!!!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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….

Leave her alone. She has the right to say whatever.

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.

Move on,refocus.

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.

"WaH WAH WAH!!!!"
-Sarah Palin

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?

This is too easy to proof and clear. A DNA test. I wonder, Why Not??? unless there is really a story.

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!

Why is this woman still in the news??

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!

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

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

Sarah Palin

Hockey-mom eye candy….nothing more….nothing less.

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!*

TAKE IT ALL OFF, SARAH, YOU SKANKY HO!

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.

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.

Sarah,

Good for you! Say it loud and proud girl your future is looking brighter and brighter.

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.

Hey, Alaska!…do yourselfs a big favor. When you vote for a govenor next time…vote for a real governor type!

"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"!

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.

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.

She's the biggest liar of all. Who cares what she says anyway. She's a nothing and as dishonest 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 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.

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.

Go away – Go away – Go away – I am a repbulican and I still say go away Palin – go away!

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!

What does she think about pathetic politicians who lie?

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.

You know what annoys me, Sarah? Pathetic losers who blame everyone else for their problems, i.e., You.

yess, yes.. keep marginalizing yourself.

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.

Thank goodness these people have finally been called out.

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.

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!

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!

Sarah, Sarah! Who'd know best about Being Pathetic, and Lies, than a filthy neocon christard like you?

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!

Like the Energizer Bunny, she just keeps on going and going and going…………………..

I

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…..

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!

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.

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!

DEAR GOD, LET THIS OBVIOUSLY STUPID AND INCOMPETANT WOMAN FIND A VERY DEEP HOLE IN AND GROUND AND COVER HERSELF UP !!!

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.

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!

“bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie.”

Sounds like liberal bloggers to me. They just feel. They don't think.

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.

The Wasilla hillbillies get all WWF Mavericky on us.

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.

Dear McConartist hatchett:

You are beneath contempt and far from a gentleman. That is, a typical Democrat.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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…

What a ditzy Broad !!!!
Go the hell away Sarah…ENOUGH !!!

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

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!

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.

Oh, Please, Please – enough of this palinthetic reporting!

Here's some truth for you Sarah, Your quickly becoming the next Tanya Harding.

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

AMERICA SAY IT LOUD!

WE DON'T WANT TRAILER PARK TRASH IN THE WHITEHOUSE PERIOD.,…………………………………………

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.

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.

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.

Who's Sara Palin???????

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.

Sooo…can bloggers slam hypocritical, non-worldly, happily ignorant, self-righteous, race baiting, candidates who lie? Just wondering…

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.

Trick!

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!!!

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.

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

"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…

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?

There's no way that she is going to be able to keep this up till 2012.

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?

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

Does Sarah Palin go out of her way to be annoying? She's like a discordant bell constantly clanging! Enough already.

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!!!!!

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.

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.

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.

So if people could care less that must mean that we have the "BORED, ANONYMOUS, PATHETIC BLOGGERS WHO LIE "right here.

How fitting losers!

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.

PALLIN/PLUMMER 2012
THEY ARE BOTH THE FAIL PRODUCT AND LEFT OVER OF MC SAME CAMPAIGN AND IT IS ALL THE GOP HAVE.

'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.

WHO CARES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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!

Please stop reporting what this lady says. It does not matter unless you plaster it all over our screens!

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.

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 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.

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.

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!

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.)

Mccain won't even support her candidacy in 2012… "nuff said"

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.

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.

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.

The way things are going, she won't win re-election in Alaska

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.

SHUT UP DO YOUR JOB AS GOVENOR. YOUR HOOKED ON THE LIMELIGHT YOU OPPROTUNISTIC HIPPOCRITE.

I have the world map in front of me. Guess I will run for president in 2012.

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.

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.

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.

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."

Cnn..Please don't waste anymore time with this loser Palin…lets move on to bigger things.

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.

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!!!!!

"Alikeness"?

Since when is THAT a word?

Please, somebody, put this woman out of her misery…..and ours.

The more you talk Sara, the more you validate our stance.

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!

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.

Sarah…Girl……."It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt."

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!

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.

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.

if you really wanted sarah palin to go away you'd stop leaving all these comments. if you ignore it, it will go away.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.'

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.

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

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.!

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!

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..

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.

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.

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?

In her defense, I must say "She's really cute"

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.

Palin..Omarosa…some people just won't go away.

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!!

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?

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.

wasn't she a journalism major in college? the irony must be lost on her, but it sure isn't on me.

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.

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.

BE A HOCKEY MOM AND STAY IN ALASKA.

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.

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.

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.

must be that barracuda in her that won't shut up!

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.

Why are we still giving any attention, media or otherwise, to this woman? Stay in Alaska and rule there.

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.

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!

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.

Is this her way of keeping some sort of attention on her?

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%.

please stop reporting what she says and she will go away
she has no credibility or values except blaming others.

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.

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.

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…

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.)

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.

(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.

Hasn't she learned yet that less is more. Shut your mouth already and go help your kid apply for medicaid and food stamps.

CNN – the most trusted in NEWS!!!! This woman is not news.

Boy for someone who says you just have to "let it go" she's having a really hard time letting it go.

What part of "go away, we don't care" does she not understand????

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.

She's a fool. What do you expect? Ignorance is bliss.

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."

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.

"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.

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?

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.

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…

Did she really sell a plane on Ebay? And she has the nerve to call other people pathetic liers.

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.

I just threw up.

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???

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.

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!

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.

Spiro Agnew said alot of things that sounded similiar……… he couldn't see Russia from his house though

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

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.

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 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.

Wackoo, Wasilla hilibily…..em .. em…

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….

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

She sings a musical scale- that has only one note —ME. And that opera is definitely over.

so,i lied a couple of times. sue me. i believe you do wear baby polar bear mittens away from the cameras, tho.

News Flash!! Could the media please stop reporting on this woman, there are more important issues to resolve in this country besides her ego…

Pathetic. 'Nuf said. Oh, sorry, and self-deluded (as usual).

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.

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.

New Flash!! Could the media please stop reporting on this woman, there are more important issues to resolve in this country besides her ego…

Actually, alikeness is a word. Just looked it up. I'm as shocked as you are. Betcha, as in "You betcha", however, is not.

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.

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.

*snicker-giggle-smirk*

Aaaah, I needed a good guffaw like that today.

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.

SORRY. DRUG DEALER.

Palin' into insignificance, isn't she?

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!

Show us a picture of your belly when you were supposedly pregnant and we'll shut up!!!!

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.

Don't tell me the pitbull wearing lipstick is upset by a little criticism!

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.

YES MRS. PALIN, IT IS EVERYONE ELSE'S FAULT.

YOU ARE JUST WONDERFUL, MAYBE IN YOUR HUSBAND'S EYES!

Looks like Bozo the Clown moved from WGN Chicago to Alaska!

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.

WHEN will CNN stop giving this woman coverage? Does she really deserve to still be on the national stage? Ugh, so over it.

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.

Hypocrite…go back to your village

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.

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.

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!

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.

Everybody here, please, please, go away.

Why don't you go find Obama's BIRTH certificate?

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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!

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!

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?

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?

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.

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.

Thanks to the American votes, she is not one heart beat away of the presidency

To CNN: Please stop reporting on Sarah Palin!!!!!

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.

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.

We just can't get enough of her, can we?

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?

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.

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…

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.

Methinks the lady doth protest too much!

Seriously, does anyone other than Mrs. Palin CARE about what she thinks?

isn't her "15 min of fame" over like 4 months ago?? Grrr… I am over her excuses!

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.

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!

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..

I can't believe people actually voted for this woman! Shut up already! You and grandpa lost! Get over it!

I thought Govenor Ed Rendell was a windbag, but even he knows when enough is enough.

This is just too painful….please do not publish anything else about Palin.
Lets move on….

99.9% of comments I read about her all say she's a nut job. Are all those people bored and lying?

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!!!

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.

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.

Sarah needs to 'get over herself' – what a narcissist!!!

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!

I love Palin!! Be brave!! Continue your way and ignore everyone here!! They are just jealous of your achievements….

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.

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.

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!

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.

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?

she keeps running her mouth brraaaaaa braaaaaa one day some angry citizen may throw shoes at her .

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.

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.

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!

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?

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.

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.

She is a proven lyer. She better shutup!

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.

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.

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.

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!

Obama Did pal around with Terrorists. BILL AYERS leader of the homegrown terrorist group Weatherman. You keep thinking Obama didnt know him, morons.

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.

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!

"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!

Get the hook! Please stop giving this woman more attention than she deserves!

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!

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.

Sounds a lot like when you were calling Obama a terrorist

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.

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)

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……

.

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!

didn't we almost have it all

LOL!!!! so glad we got BARACK instead

I Feel like I am wearing a Pal-in my head!! Please, leaves us alone!!

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?

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.

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.

For some, the bitterness of defeat becomes a continious agony.

Ja,
Breath of fresh air? what are you smoking?
Why can't SP just go away?

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.

“bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie.” Is right below me!

Back to your old censorship again. what ever happened to free press. what a poor example of media.

Stop. No more coverage of this ignorant pathetic woman who will do any thing to get ahead. No Joe nor the Sarah stupid.

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.

enough already with Alaska's empty headed beauty queen!!

Why is this story the lead on the political ticker? There are many more important things taking place today.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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!

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.

When is CNN going to cut the cord? Gov Palin will go to any length to remain in the news light 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!

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.

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.

Should have/would have, it over and Palin should take the time to go to law school.

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

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!!!!!!!!!!

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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

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.

(sigh) please lady, shut up!

we all know that sarah Palin does not know anything about politics; the person to blame is john Mccain

can she please just go away….who cares?

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.

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.
