"It doesn't sound to me like many of you are supporting Barack the wealth-spreader on Nov. 4."
....said the acid-tongued candidate.


She introduced her husband, Todd Palin, as "Alaska's first dude" and she asked the crowd at one point, "So, Virginia -- will you hire us?"



Palin also endorsed McCain's "all-of-the-above" energy plan, particularly its calls for new domestic oil drilling and coal mining. The crowd responded, chanting "Drill, baby, drill."

"And mine, baby, mine," Palin added.



Her plane touched down at Roanoke Regional Airport at 6:30 p.m., and she quickly entered a Chevrolet Suburban that -- as part of a motorcade of nearly 20 vehicles -- made the drive along closed-off roads to Salem in just about 15 minutes.

Palin's campaign declined to make her available for questions. She left quickly after the speech and returned to the airport, again on roads closed to motorists by police. Her plane lifted off the runway at 8:22 p.m., bound for a campaign event with McCain this morning in Hershey, Pa.

In all, Palin spent less than two hours in the Roanoke Valley.




Just like Bush in foreign nations. Just like Bush over a drowned New Orleans. Just like Bush when he fled the Sarasota elementary school for the Nebraska bunker on September 11, 2001. Unmitigated ignorance, arrogance and cowardice.




Virginia Democrats issued a response to Palin through state Del. Kris Amundson, D-Fairfax County: "Governor Palin again proved she's good at distorting Barack Obama's positions, but what she didn't do today is provide an explanation for how John McCain's economic policies would be any different than George Bush's. The truth is that Barack Obama will cut taxes for 95 percent of Americans, curb wasteful spending and eliminate capital gains taxes for small businesses. That's exactly the change Virginians need."







So, get out of here. And take your Todd-piece with ya.

5. Isn't that what babies say? Mine! Mine!
They are the party of the possessive pronoun, first person singular. I'm sure the ambiguity of "mine" went sailing over the heads of the speaker and all assembled, though.

Old-time farmers had a piece of equipment called a manure spreader. Palin's BRILLIANT :sarcasm: comment always reminds me of that!

3. "wealth spreader" sound pretty good to me and probably many
poor and middle class people struggling to make it right now.

4. Palin left out "Kill, baby, Kill."
And don't forget to get the front paw.




She is a disgusting excuse for a human being.
