For First Time, Palin Takes Questions
~snip~

“It is pertinent, it's important because when you consider Barack Obama's reaction to and explanation to his association there, and without him being clear at all on what he knew and when he knew it, that I think kinda peaks into his ability to tell us the truth on, not only on association but perhaps other things also,” Palin said.

“I think it just makes us ask the question that, if there's not forthrightness there, with that association and what was known and when it was known, does that lead us to ask, is there forthrightness with the plans Barack Obama has on say tax cuts, or spending increases?” Palin added. “It makes you wonder about the forthrightness, the truthfulness of the plans that he is telling America in regards to the economic recovery because that is first and foremost on American's minds.”

When questioned directly whether she thought Obama was being dishonest, Palin denied the charge, while raising more questions about whether Obama has associated with Ayers recently.

“I’m not saying that he’s dishonest, but in terms of judgment, in terms of being able to answer a question forthrightly, it has two different parts to this. The judgment and the truthfulness…” Palin said. “Is there still -- has there been an association with him since ‘02 and ’05. We've heard a couple of different stories. I think it is relevant.”

3. Wow.. there are a lot of "...ness" words in that story..
It's sorta making my head hurt, also about the fact that everything she said had forthrightness and truthfulness which is ironic also, considering that Palin is neither, also. And, I think it's relevant also that our economic recovery is on American's minds, and ohhhhh crap. My tounge just exploded.. man that hurts. Ow..owwwwwy.

More later when I get this all stitched up.

5. Does anyone care what she says anymore?
She is repeating the same talking points over and over, and it is getting old.

10. She's attempting to corner the market on truthiness.
Sadly, voters (me included) like to be lied to, so this will not work ;)

8. Does the BO Campaign unload
on Churchy Spice at some point and hammer the public airwaves with her secessionist (ie ACTUAL domestic terrorist) ties or do they simply let this fool continue to marginalize herself with this idiotic vitriol? For her to accuse anyone of anything untoward only adds to her image as a complete moron with a heavy dose of hypocrisy.

9. Logorrhoea = Palin
In the dictionary, next to Logorrhoea, you will now find the REPUBLICAN VP CANDIDATE'S PITBULL MONIKER.


Logorrhoea is defined as an “excessive flow of words” and, when used medically, refers to incoherent talkativeness occurring in certain kinds of mental illness, such as mania. Logomania is the medical condition and mania with underlying symptom logorrhoea. The spoken form of logorrhoea (in the non-medical sense) is a kind of verbosity which uses superfluous (or fancy) words to disguise an otherwise useless message as useful or intellectual, and is commonly known as “verbal diarrhea” or “diarrhea of the mouth”.

This has long been one of my favorite words and I thank Sarah Palin profusely for bringing it the international attention only she could.

18. For the life of me...
...I still can't understand a word she says. I've tried. I really have, but the sentence structure is so mangled.

In some ways she is more incoherent than the current squatter in the White House.

Maybe I need a Palin Universal Translator...
