In case you guys have missed it here is the link again.
It shows the average intelect and mentality of Palin's supporters.
Get some popcorn, a cold drink, sit back and let the laughs unfold.

Surely there has to be "SOME' Conservatives among you that won't blindly support an idiot like Sarah Palin.

I gotta hand her a compliment though, she knows exactly how to play you chumps and cash in on buckets full of cash. Keep buying her book, she will appreciate the money.

It would be funny to see her as President.

She would love to make all her opinions into some kind of laws that must be obeyed. And then, when she finds out that she can't just declare new laws, she can go rogue against Congress, and the Supremem Court.

The Maverick is Going Rogue, LOL LOL

That's just the run-of-the-mill Obama hot air. The voice is different, but the breath's still the same.

Did you watch the video yet? Did you see Frank standing there in his Pittsburgh Steeler's jacket at 0:35? Holding not 1 but 2 books, one for home and one for the office, haha.


You guys kill me, a 5 watt light bulb is brighter than Palin.

Sarah Palin for President? Are you frikkin kidding me?

Some of you guys are so bereft for real leadership that you will hook your wagon to any old sod who has been shown to mouth a few of your talking points in the past.

Liberals aren’t afraid of Sarah Palin, no no no, it's much deeper than that.
Liberals are afraid of Conservatives who want her to be their nominee.
If that is the best you have the cupboard is bare.

She quits her job as governor because she realized she could make more money peddling her ghostwritten book. Now that is real leadership and commitment isn't it?


She suggests and alludes to the fact that she's on a bus tour trying to be one of the 'folksy' people she represents, yet in reality she takes the Gulfstream Jet to every city, and gets on the bus 1 mile before the scheduled stop to make it 'appear' she is doing the tour on the bus.

The problem is not that she's flying around the country on a private jet; the problem is that she is misrepresenting herself for the sake of appearing like one of the regular people she is selling her book to.

She is nothing but a fraud, a stupid one at that.

If you honestly see her as qualified, then you don't take the office of president very seriously. She brings nothing to a campaign. She was hidden by her own party when they realized they made a mistake in nominating her for VP. She embarrassed them and they tried to cover it up. They tried to teach her what to say and she didn't get it. She was nothing but trouble for her handlers. This is what you want for president?

A dimwit quitter who can't even recite what books she has read, the national political village idiot is the one you would choose to be your President and represent your values?

It’s like the episode of the Twilight Zone where only the little kid can see the monster, but nobody else can.
Here’s a giant “wink’ for you guys, I know how much you eat that ***** up.
You betcha!

Sarah Palin the national joke, lol
Knowing you habbi, Your trying to stir the pot for reaction. Ok.. I'll bite. Your scared of her. This is obvious of the left. The personal attacks show that. You were asked what her lies are. The best you could do is say she takes a plane on a bus tour. YAWN. Ghost written books? You best mention obama's book written by bill ayers. Double standard on your part? I think so. She quit being governor because the legal fees where being paid by Alaska. She didn't think that was right. She has class. Get over it.Taking the office of president seriously would mean obama would never be elected. His ties to radicals and TOTAL lack of any administration experiance says that. Only 8% of his cabnet has any real world work experiance. She did not embarass the republican party. mccain did. If she was as bad as you say she is, why is she so popular? Why does she have such a following? Why has she sold so many books? Yup... you and your kind are very scared. But I suspect all you will do is make some kind of fun of me. Once again ignoring the question: What lies has she told?

You are really gullible! You need to educate yourself. Unplug Fox news, that will be a good start.

Obama's ties to radicals?

Obama's book written by Bruce Ayers?

Liberals are "scared" of Sarah Palin?

Palin resigned as Governor because the state was picking up her legal tab?

Why does Palin have such a following? Look in the mirror for your answer.

You crack me up.

And they weren't even actors but real people, unbelievable!

Palin lied when she said the dismissal of her public safety commissioner, Walt Monegan, had nothing to do with his refusal to fire state trooper Mike Wooten; in fact, the Branchflower Report concluded that she repeatedly abused her power when dealing with both men.

Palin lied when she repeatedly claimed to have said, "Thanks, but no thanks" to the Bridge to Nowhere; in fact, she openly campaigned for the federal project when running for governor.

Palin lied when she denied that Wasilla's police chief and librarian had been fired; in fact, both were given letters of termination the previous day.

Palin lied when she wrote in the NYT that a comprehensive review by Alaska wildlife officials showed that polar bears were not endangered; in fact, email correspondence between those scientists showed the opposite.

Palin lied when she claimed in her convention speech that an oil gas pipeline "began" under her guidance; in fact, the pipeline was years from breaking ground, if at all.

Palin lied when she told Charlie Gibson that she does not pass judgment on gay people; in fact, she opposes all rights between gay spouses and belongs to a church that promotes conversion therapy.

Palin lied when she denied having said that humans do not contribute to climate change; in fact, she had previously proclaimed that human activity was not to blame.

Palin lied when she claimed that Alaska produces 20 percent of the country's domestic energy supply; in fact, the actual figures, based on any interpretation of her words, are much, much lower.

Palin lied when she told voters she improvised her convention speech when her teleprompter stopped working properly; in fact, all reports showed that the machine had functioned perfectly and that her speech had closely followed the script.

Palin lied when she recalled asking her daughters to vote on whether she should accept the VP offer; in fact, her story contradicts details given by her husband, the McCain campaign, and even Palin herself. (She later added another version.)


Palin lied when she claimed to have taken a voluntary pay cut as mayor; in fact, as councilmember she had voted against a raise for the mayor, but subsequent raises had taken effect by the time she was mayor.

Palin lied when she insisted that Wooten's divorce proceedings had caused his confidential records to become public; in fact, court officials confirmed they released no such records.

Palin lied when she suggested to Katie Couric that she was involved in trade missions with Russia; in fact, she has never even met with Russian officials.

Palin lied when she told Shimon Peres that the only flag in her office was the Israeli flag; in fact, she has several flags.

Palin lied when she claimed to have tried to divest government funds from Sudan; in fact, her administration openly opposed a bill that would have done just that.

Palin lied when she repeatedly claimed that troop levels in Iraq were back to pre-surge levels; in fact, even she acknowledged her "misstatements," though she refused to retract or apologize.

Palin lied when she insisted that the Branchflower Report "showed there was no unlawful or unethical activity on my part"; in fact, that report prominently stated, "Palin abused her power by violating Alaska Statute 39.52.110(a) of the Alaska Executive Branch Ethics Act."

Palin lied when she claimed to have voiced concerns over Wooten fearing he would harm her family; in fact, she actually decreased her security detail during that period.

Palin lied when asked about the $150,000 worth of clothes provided by the RNC; in fact, solid reporting contradicted several parts of her statement.

Palin lied when she suggested that she had offered the media proof of her pregnancy with Trig to "correct the record"; in fact, no reports of her medical records were ever published; and the letter from her doctor testifying to her good health only emerged hours before polling ended on election day, even though there was nothing in it that couldn't have been released two months earlier.

Palin lied when she said that "reported" allegations of her banning Harry Potter as mayor was easily refutable because it had not even been written yet; in fact, the first book in that series was published in 1998 - two years into her first term - and such rumors were never reported by the media, only circulated as emails.

Palin lied when she denied having participated in a clothes audit with campaign laywers; in fact, the Washington Times later confirmed those details.

Palin lied when asked about Couric's question regarding her reading habits; in fact, Couric's words were not, "What do you read up there in Alaska?" or anything close to condescension.

Palin lied when she mischaracterized the "$1200 check" given to Alaskans as the permanent fund dividend check; in fact, that fund had yielded $2,069 per person, and she claimed otherwise to obscure the fact that Alaskans also received a $1200 rebate check from a windfall profits tax on oil companies - a tax widely criticized by Republicans.

Palin lied when she claimed to be unaware of a turkey being slaughtered behind her during a filmed interview; in fact, the cameraman said she had picked the spot herself, while the slaughter was underway.

Palin lied when she denied having rejected federal stimulus money; in fact, she continued to accept and reject the funds several times.

Palin lied when she claimed that legislative leaders had canceled a meeting with her to hold their own press conference; in fact, they only canceled it after being told she would not participate, and the purpose of the press conference was very different from the meeting's.

Palin lied when she announced on the news that she never holds closed-door meetings; in fact, she had just attended a closed-door meeting with the legislature earlier that day.

Palin lied when she said that former aide John Bitney's "amicable" departure was for "personal" reasons; in fact, Bitney said he was fired because of his relationship with the wife of Palin's friend, plus a Palin spokesperson later claimed "poor job performance" for his firing - without elaborating.

Palin lied when she said she kept her running injury a secret on the campaign trail; in fact, her bandaged hand was clearly visible in photographs and the story was widely talked about.

Palin lied when she claimed that Alaska has spent "millions of dollars" on litigation related to her ethics complaints; in fact, that figure is much, much lower, and she had initiated the most expensive inquiry.

Palin lied when she denied that the Alaska Independence Party supports secession and denied that her husband had been a member; in fact, even the McCain campaign noted that the party's very existence is based on secession and that Todd was a member for seven years.

...and the big one:

She also blames the bailout package on Obama, even though McCain voted for it, she supported it, and Bush signed it.

It will take endless vigilance to prevent the false notion that "everything was fine under Bush, and then immediately went to hell under a spend-happy Obama" from taking root in the dimwitted national consciousness.

It will only get worse as time passes beyond our historical attention span, and Palin and others realize they have everything to gain and nothing to lose by promulgating and nourishing such an idiotic lie.

My how quickly we forget.

Are liberals so desperate to attack Sarah Palin that you choose a F150 Forum as your soapbox?

Wow, that dame has really gotten under your skin.

Gentlemen, Ladies, back to the discussion of TRUCKS, namely F-150s! Please
