Palin issues "wake-up" call at DU
Palin issues "wake-up" call at DU
By Allison Sherry
The Denver Post

With her trademark plain talk and pitch that bring roomfuls of loyalists to their feet, former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin implored 3,500 people at the University of Denver on Saturday to "wake up" because, she said, "I can see November from my house."

snip...
"We put a man on the moon. . . . We can measure . . . tiny babies in utero," she said. "But we can't build a fence to secure our border?"

She said the newly passed Arizona immigration reform bill was within the state's right to take action.

"Why does he (Obama) keep pickin' on Arizona?" she said. "This is kind of the way things are being run right now in D.C. . . . Perhaps they can go ahead and criticize a bill that they haven't even read."

She told the crowd to "bookmark" the law "on your BlackBerry."

"Even I can read it," she said, raising her hand. "It's not a difficult thing."

snip...
Palin concluded her speech with a tribute to Reagan. She compared his foreign policy with Obama's, saying the president needed to stop "apologizing" to foreign countries — most recently to China. She warned that "Reagan is still spying" down on us.

And that's all it is about, period, for Palin.

3. This woman will plague us forever.
We have decades of listening to her nails-on-a-chalkboard voice and folksy witticisms to which to look forward.

Oh joy.

4. When will this walking cartoon character shut up already?
I can't believe she is still in demand to speak about anything, as if she is some kind of authority. A senile/confused washed up Senator chose her to be his running mate - other than that she is a nobody.

8. Exactly
I wish they'd stop showing clips of her. Her knowledge is limited and her thinking is faulty because it's based on lies and psychotalk. I don't want to see it or hear it.

10. Same here. The media usually has a short attention span and
I think Palin has so far outlived it.

9. Something about building a fence on the moon to prevent fetuses from
crossing the border...

Whatever.

11. I guess Lady Blah Blah forgives St. Ronnie of Raygun for failing
to build a fence to secure our border and for granting all those invaders amnesty.

We should just put a recording of her voice over loud speakers at the borders that would work to scare folks away.

15. Real articles about Palin are indistinguishable from The Onion.
That's amazing.

19. Some DUers think that Obama is so bad that they won't vote
for Dems in November.

Playing right into Palin's hands
