Did Palin's supporters "Out Faux" the DNC? That stuff on Sarah's Hand
Edited on Sun Feb-07-10 08:17 PM by KoKo
hardly looks like the "three talking points" our Party is putting out there that she was reading from.

I think this was a "set up" by Palin's RW Think Tank Supporters to get the DNC to JUMP ON.

If Palin really had "cheat notes" inscribed on her palm why would the "mega close up" still show a huge "SMUDGE" with a few letters there. And, knowing she had a "cheat palm" why would she have flashed that palm in front of "prying video cams/cell phone captures" to prove she was using "cheat notes."

WE GOT SCAMMED! Why do we fall for this constant shit from Palin's supporter...who are the very people who did tricks down in Palm Beach County during Bush vs. Gore?

Why are we so stupid we fall for their stuff that comes back and bites us in the ass ...EVERY TIME?

:shrug:

Here's the Video posted on DU put out by DNC in quick fashion. Watch it and tell me you see some legible script there for her three talking points the WSJ said that "Liberals" are going against her for scribbling down. Does this agree with what folks like WSJ say liberals saw?

HERE's WSJ's TAKE ON IT:

Did Palin Scribble Notes on Her Palm?

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin offered the keynote address Saturday night at a Nashville, Tenn., Tea Party convention, but the lingering question today is: Did she really have notes written on the palm of her hand?

Photographers and television cameras captured shots of scribbled notes on Palin’s hand during her hour-long appearance before 1,100 grassroots activists in which she answered a handful of questions from convention organizer Judson Phillips.

An enlarged photograph seen here appears to show the words “energy,” “tax,” and “Lift American spirits” written on Palin’s left hand. TV snapshots also appear to show Palin consulting her palm during the question-and-answer session.

The notes are in line with a response to a question about what she believed the top three priorities should be for the party. Her answers were: cutting government spending, jumpstarting energy projects, and “allowing America’s spirit to rise again.”

Liberal bloggers, naturally, have seized on Palmgate to criticize the former governor, who in her remarks chided President Barack Obama for using a teleprompter when he gives speeches. “Oh don’t fault her for using good ol fashioned American know-how instead of some new-fangled furrin-made device,” snarked liberal blog FireDogLake.

1. You are giving them way too much credit.
Sometimes things are exactly as they appear to be. Palin is as dumb as a box of hammers; I'd expect her to do something like write talking points on her own hand and then complain about Obama using a Teleprompter.

Don't forget Occam's Razor: The simplest explanation is almost always the correct one.

3. If it was intentional as a trap, that was childish. n/t
