SkyDekker 1,465 #26 November 26, 2010 QuoteIt may help the "under-rock dwellers" to list specific examples of Palin's actual actions or quotes/writings that would clearly demonstrate her idiocy. That would give her followers an opportunity to answer, defend or debate each charge of idiotic behavior. The same could be done for other politicians or public figures. That would at least move a discussion beyond unqualified name-calling. I would expect that the idiot label is not directly attached to the person's political alignment or occasional gaffe. The charges do not need to be restricted to idiocy. For example, incompetence, qualifications, dereliction, etc. could also be listed and discussed. I would expect that among adults a differentiation could be recognized between actual idiocy and political ideology (maybe not). That discussion might be an interesting read. I'm an expert at everything, I can see the library from my house.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

muff528 3 #29 November 26, 2010 Quote.........Funny how people keep attributing a line from a Tina Fey skit to Palin... Yep. The quote was "They're our next-door neighbors and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska." ...but, this was used to demonstrate her foreign policy credentials. Fey (who I never heard of until that skit. I quit watching SNL years ago when the writing went to sh*t) did what good lambasters do and lambasted her, albeit with more venom than humor.

masterrig 1 #30 November 26, 2010 Quote Quote Palin is an idiot. If she says something that is accurate, it is a matter of happenstance. She shows no sign of being able to differentiate between the valid and the nonsensical. Sarah Palin: 'We've got to stand with our North Korean Allies' There you have it! Proof... you just can't fix stupid! Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kallend 2,184 #31 November 27, 2010 Are you still going to deny Sarah's statement that she would deny an abortion to a teenage rape victim?... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh so her OTHER position of not supporting a womans right to choose under ANY circumstance was just pandering to all the fringe right christian whackjobs here in the lower 48 states to get them support her much like The Witch in Delaware, or the 2nd Amendment solution to Obama from the whackjob from Nevada.

So you ARE still in denial, and have to concoct a silly rationale for it.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.
