1. First I've heard of it since ten minutes ago here on DU.

But, I heard about it 20 minutes before that and a half an hour before that. It must be true, I guess...

2. Yes, MSNBC, she did.

9. The media asking this is what we want

It needs to be known that she did this.

Bigger question they need to ask, were the questions scripted and did she know them ahead of time thus the cheat palm.

11. It'll happen.

3. Oh c'mon, everyone does that

4. I can never get the MSNBC links to play more than a few seconds of each

segment. It is infuriating. No one else here has complained about this so I guess it's a quirk of my computer. Anything you can suggest to keep the video going?

5. This story makes no sense at all.

Any speaker or politician has notes or the whole speech with them at the podium. Or they use a teleprompter or both. Why would Palin need to have notes on her hand? Makes no sense.

7. She had them in a interview with pre-approved questions

that she had got in advance..maybe Piper should have mouthed the answers to her

6. Here we go again..

the smirking Stoddard bitch trying to make excuses for why Palin wrote in her hand..

10. Has this not been a story?

I checked the news channels this morning, and heard nothing about it. Just about her "slamming" Obama, Democrats, etc.

I took a nap, then checked a few news sites, and I still don't see anything about it.

How can this go unnoticed? This dumbass jokes about Obama and his teleprompter, then she has to write answers so she can answer pre-screened questions? And, assuming the close-up of the writing isn't photoshopped, THAT is what her dumbass wrote? If you ask me in a month from now, I will be able to recite those words. How stupid can she be? When I was checking this all out online last night, I really thought to myself, "is she just punking us all? No one can really be that stupid. She has to be punking us."

But the media has nothing on this? Well, I guess Palin got one thing right, it is the "lamestream" media.
