http://www.buzzfeed.com/andrewkaczynski/sarah-palin-i-was-banned-from-talking-about-jeremiah-wrightFormer vice presidential candidate and Alaska Governor Sarah Palin said Friday she was banned by the McCain campaign from talking about Bill Ayers and President Obamas controversial former pastor Jeremiah Wright during the 2008 presidential election.
Though I was during the campaign running for V.P., I was banned from talking about Jeremiah Wright and Obamas friend Bill Ayers, Palin said in a Fox News interview. Couldnt talk about that. Couldnt talk about Obamas lack of knowledge, and job inexperience, and the things that he said like America had 57 states, things like that.
Palin continued, in the campaign, Greta this is important for Americans to understand, I wasnt allowed to talk about things like that because those elitist, those who are the brainiacs in the GOP machine running John McCains campaign at the time said that the media would eat us alive if we brought up these things.
Palin asserted that Obama was subsequently elected because she wasnt allowed to discuss the controversial topics.

Greed, power, racism, bigotry -- all causing this insanity.

(50,365 posts)She DID talk about Bill Ayers during her racist stump speeches more than once. She was a racist POS then and is still a racist POS. I don't recall if she talked about the pastor but, given she is incapable of telling the truth, I would bet she did.

(9,267 posts)Wow. Julianne Moore was absolutely spot-on as Palin. The woman is dumber and more self-centered than you can imagine. Talk about a loose cannon a heartbeat away from the Oval Office.
Ed Harris was also wonderful as McCain, who comes across as very likable in the film; at the end you kind of feel sorry for him.

(129,103 posts)And I do have HBO. Still traumatized by the fact that the media still considers her somehow relevant 5 years after her and McLame's spectacular FAIL of a campaign.

(22,871 posts)even the campaign staffers were afraid of letting her get anywhere near a position of power.

(14 posts)I think there WAS a clash of egos between her and Rick Perry during the Republican Governors Association meeting Nov. 13, 2008 after the 2008 election. The media ignored him and every other governor on the stage at the press conference. "Shiny new object!"

(50,560 posts)Two, actually.
First is her own stellar resume: mayor of a suburb with less than 8000 residents, and governor of the least populated state in America.(And she had to hire a city manager to keep from being recalled for incompetence.)
The other is the Wasilla hockey rink, in which she spent tons of tax dollars in an attempt to keep her worthless son off the streets, built on land the city didn't own...and you want to tell us about the commercial windows in your house now or later, Sarah? IIRC his military service that Sarah brags about was one of those Army-or-jail things.

President Jeb Bush will change all that.
