Risking accusations of being all "Wee-Wee'd Up", one Homer woman made a sign in her shed. She then took the 30 foot by 3 foot banner out to the boat harbor. It said "WORST GOVERNOR EVER". Kathleen Gustafson is a teacher married to a local commercial fisherman. She felt like Sarah Palin had let the state down by becoming a dollar-chasing celebrity and ignoring the oath of office she'd sworn on a Bible.

Kathleen was motivated by the fact Palin was using the very place where her family makes a living to fortify the Palin personality cult -- pretending to do the very thing they worked so hard to sustain. Initially, Kathleen just wanted to waste a little of the camera crew's time, since Palin wasted so much of her time purporting to represent Alaska's interests...

...She couldn't just walk by. Only a few fishermen and tourists would have seen the banner, but Sarah had to stop and protest. I spoke with Kathleen. She said she wanted Palin to know how she felt, but never dreamed she'd get the chance to say to her face, "You're not a leader, you're a climber!" Early in the conversation, Sarah actually winked at Kathleen in what seemed to be a case of eyelid Tourette's Syndrome.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/shannyn-moore/sarah-palins-homer-moment_b_675198.html
At one point, a Palin daughter chanted, "You're just jealous". Kathleen told Sarah she was disappointed that she dropped her responsibility to the state to became a celebrity. Palin said incredulously, "I'm honored. No, she thinks I'm a celebrity!" Really? So the camera crew wasn't an indicator? How many times do you have to be on magazine covers to gain celebrity status? Something about camping with Kate Plus Eight in rain slickers seems, well, a little celebrity.

Billy Sullivan caught much of the interchange on his cell phone camera. The back of her security guard's head and Todd Palin attempted to block Billy's view, continually rotating like Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum. What were they afraid of? I guess that's what happens when you're filming a "celebrity". He was even told by one of the Palin daughters, "You're an A-hole". Charming family values.

22. Even the Clampetts were more gracious than these fools.
This woman did what the National Media refused too. She cornered Palin and not only asked tough questions, she told her how she feel to her face. Palin thought she'll be able to Con this woman into believing her Fox News talking point. This video was great. I hope Keith O or Rachael Maddow show this video today. Her daughter couldn't rescue her this time. She need to tend to her son, and shut the He!! up. Just like her disrespectful mother. By the way, where's her baby daddy. Oh, I forget, he's fooling around. Typical white trash.

4. Did anyone else...
Edited on Mon Aug-09-10 09:28 AM by Mokito
catch the look of disdain and mockery exchanged between Palin and one of her daughters, when the woman said she was a teacher?

Then for some reason the woman then felt compelled to add "...also I have a few other jobs". Why is that?
Are teachers in the United States these days viewed upon as some sort of pariah or something, that they should feel the need to supplement their answer when somebody asks them for their career (of choice).
"I am a teacher!" should have sufficed. Absolutely no shame in that!

3. She just showed her reverence for teachers

68. Teachers should be proud of what they do! I'm hoping to become one myself.
The contempt she shows in this video for the woman's teaching profession is beyond reprehensible.

99. Teachers
Especially if they were unencumbered from this idiotic race to the bottom, all children left behind, etc.. are one of the most important asset's we have. Incredibly (not really in our capitalistic,greed, greed, greed society) They are way under-paid and under-valued.
Ignorant "jocks" get paid million$ a year, while the pols and many people scream about Teachers Unions.
Yes, I believe in the "Western European Style"..."socialist" (my ass) system. I also believe that everyone should have the opportunity to collectively bargain (Unions), as well as Fair Trade, not Free Trade.
How can a (once) "1st world nation", compete with the paltry salaries of a 3rd world nation?
We are witnessing how....unemployment on a massive scale and the distribution of wealth up wards at an unsustainable rate.
The laws that would end this greed, would be fairly simple to write and enforce. Of course, then the (untaxed) CORPORATIONS who own America (and their owned politicians), couldn't sustain their million$ in bonuses to the wealthy and their gross profits....
Wealth re-distribution or feudalism. That is our only 2 choices...

6. Contempt?
I see a politician who skillfully defused a confrontation with a protestor.

Deny Palin's charm at your own peril.

contempt vs 'a politician who skillfully defused a confrontation with a protester'

The two do not necessarily exclude each other.

12. Still...
I agree that the contempt is not blatantly on display here, but that still doesn't mean that it isn't there (and remeber...always smile!). Or at least that is how I perceive it.

Maybe you and I have a different vocabulary when it comes to body language and voice intonation, but to me this says 'contempt' (patronizing stature, hands in pockets or folded, foot set outwards).
Is this a contempt for the woman or rather for the situation she has brought herself in, I am not sure. Could be both.
That it's not 'in your face' is only logical since she is obviously aware of the camera present. By now she should have had enough camera training to know how and when to at least try to hide anything that could be interpreted as negative.

Unless you just forgot the sarcasm thingie.
Palin shounded like a shrieking fishmonger - or, at the very least, a very whiny one.
If that's charm, then I'm glad that I don't have it. :crazy:

59. "Deny Palin's charm at your own peril."
Well, there's charm.... and then there's charm.

They said Dubya was charming and funny. Yeah, if you like good ol' boys club jokes from someone who calls you by a cute nickname because he can't be bothered to remember your real name. I met a million of those types (like Marvin Bush) at my hoity-toity VA prep school. My father was one of those types and so is my uncle, his brother. (It seems to go with being a drunk too)

La Sarah's charm is the smarmy smile and know that god is on your side kind. Yuk! Both these slimy types of charm require you actually be (or think you are) in the special group that the charmer belongs to. Anyone outside the group is only talked down to and smiled at with contempt. I get this all the time from my uncle and his 3rd wife.... who is chummy chummy with the likes of Dubya and Libby Dole (has something to do with money).

No real charm to be found, I'm afraid.

25. if you don't think it was contempt, how do you see her reaction to "I'm a teacher"?
I've watched this a few times today (I was born the next town over from Homer and was looking for familiar faces) and the look Sarah exchanged with her daughter was mocking and disrespectful.

Maybe she'll tell us what she really meant in 140 characters or less.

29. TEACHERS, we don't need no stinkin' teachers!
Wow! Vacated Governor Palin's reaction to the word "teacher," is astonishing! When someone says they're a teacher the obvious response is, "What do you teach?" Palin doesn't care. Teachers are dangerous. They have facts, and stuff. They teach evolution and critical thinking and REAL history, not the made-up kind. You know, anti-bible stuff.

81. Seldovia.
I was born there but left when I was 2. Back then it was mostly on pilings. They "ruined" it after the 1964 earthquake. (The earthquake didn't do the damage, the Army Corps of Engineers and the local cannery owner did). Went back to see it with my Mom as an adult. We spent a few days in Homer with friends of hers. Such a beautiful state.

23. Body Searches?
The most interesting part of this article is the claim Palin thugs were conducting body search in a public place (a fishing dock). Why would anyone allow them to do this? This isn't Eastern Europe before the Berlin Wall came down.

There would be blood in the street and a big lawsuit if Palin thugs tried to force a body search me or my family.

24. This family is soooooooooooooooo charming...........

NOT



When $arah was first running for governor she did as all candidates do.........marched in our Golden Days (late July) Parade with signs and banners and entourage including family.

I was not a fan; I was hoping Tony Knowles, D, would win. His family, entourage, signs, banners, etc., were about 2 parade entrants ahead of the Wasillabillies.

A whole group of us - about 20 folks - were standing in front of the Co-Op building on 2nd Avenue, still chanting "Tony! Tony! Tony!" when Scarah's group started passing by. I was kind of out front of our crowd; it allowed my sweet spouse some room to get photos.

One of her people - I know now it was the eldest son - charged at me (mid-chant, "Tony! Tony!") and started screaming in my face. I honestly thought he was going to hit me. A local beat cop was nearby and saw what was going on. He diffused the incident - because I swear I would've taken the bastard O.U.T. right there! As it was, the cop took him by the arm and sort of half-shoved him back into the parade. My crowd started cheering the cop! I didn't know most of "my" crowd; we just happened to have been standing there watching the damn thing.......

Oh, Charmers! Oh, Charisma! Oh, Christians! Oh, CHARLATANS......... they are disgusting and should never have been foisted onto this state or this nation.

Hey, Palinistas, 20%ers, Birthers, Teaparty Movment (remember the Maine)............. and $$arah herself:

32. I first saw this in GD linked to Huffington Post...
It had about 10 comments when I first saw it now it has over 5,000 comments.

This is gonna be big...... Just think of what you can do with the video,
think about the late night comedians will do with this. It is so disgusting plus
has some really good comedy which could be used against that awful family.

Yeah, her daughter is a real pearl isn't she?

Hint turn the sound off and just watch the body language.

36. Yeah I had to turn the sound off but its worth it

I did listen to it with sound but sometimes body language becomes more apparent with that sense turned off.


BTW.... Huffington Post just deleted 200 comments it was around 5100 and now is down to 4900,

I can't wait for a hitler video with this stuff put into it.

Watch the daughter with the sound off.........YIKES

33. The teacher was the adult here and Sarah and her family were the beligerent and silly students

- pre adulthood. Can Sarah's voice get any 'cuter'? Or is a 'mountains-plains girl' style of talking - in contrast to a 'valley girl' style? In other words, it is typical of Alaska? I don't think so. I went there a couple of times, I don't remember anything loke this. Maybe it's typical of beauty contest winners? No, some maybe, not all? Where does all that cuteness come from? Anyone out there who coaches Palin type speakers? Any 'change therapy' coaches out there that would help her to stop winking? She does need some help. Perhaps the Rutherford Institute who is supposed to have paid for Paula Jones makeover and coach could help Sarah.

39. Princess Palin wants to be crowned so she can rule over her adoring subjects.
She is not required to read books! Teachers are bad because they brainwash kids to question authority and use big unnecessary words. Really her kingdom is a very simple place.

And it shows how she really is that dumb in real life.

53. no, they thrivve on "protest"
Sarah is loved by some just because the liberals and lame street media are out to get her. We are the ones who are wrong and who are ruining the country and she makes her money/points off of trashing us.

If Sarah didn't want anyone protesting her, she would not have walked up to the woman. Sarah could have ignored the sign and none of us would have known about it.

The 27% crazification facts needs Sarah (and Rush and Glenn and Sean) to put us in our place which the 27% wishes they could do. Problem is, when one of them gets in an argument with one of us we bring up facts and they lose the argument. So they want Sarah to put us down. Which is why her who persona is "in your face."

Best to ignore her. (Not that I'm criticizing the woman who made the sign. She didn't expect Sarah to get in her face.)

50. So predictable.
It's always so cute when Simple Sarah balls up her fists and turns on the "adorable" switch to try and deflect criticism.

And always nice to see her thugs move into position too so that they can block the cameras when things heat up.

And isn't Bristol a charmer. Hey Bristol, shouldn't you be home taking care of your two kids, Trig and Tripp?

What an ugly family.

Teacher: "In what way are you fighting for that?"

Mooselini: "OH MY GOODNESS!" To elect candidates who understand the constitution, to protect our military interests, so that we can keep fighting for our constitution, those protections, those freedoms that evidently are important to you too."

I'd like to know why Palin's security gets to frisk people in a public place and why they can tear down a banner posted on private property. Billy Sullivan could have prosecuted her and her entourage for trespassing.

I love the way Sarah starts all her on-the-road campaign babble bullshit and gets stopped short. Sarah apparently forgets that she's in Alaska where we know her. :rofl:

GOTCHA media! You Betcha! (Gawd she is annoying!)The look on Palins face when the woman mentioned she was a teacher, was very telling. There was a second when Palin and her daughter looked at each other and you could just imagine them both saying "ewwww". Sarah just can't stand people smarter then her. She likes folksy people who don't think for themselves, that much is obvious.

If any of my kids, even my 20-year old stepson, intervened in a discussion between me and another party, I'd stop right there, look at my offspring and say "Would you mind?!?"

And this is supposed to be the party of good family values.

84. Now I have to go bleach my retinas....
that was horrible. She's even worse when not being led around by her team of handlers.

And what is the meaning of this quote, in which she claims to be fighting "to protect our military interests, so that we can keep fighting for our constitution".....is she implying we need the military to protect our constitution? Is she suggesting a coup? Maybe it's too late at night for me to be reading this/listening to this, but that line seems a little scarier than the others.

And for the record, I am a teacher. I know contempt when I see it.

And there wasn't any charm there. She flunked that class in finishing school.

85. It's not the contempt, its the immaturity.
I have noticed this with many women I have dealt with over the years they never lose the pretty girl attitude. Not to say that in a pejorative way but its like its a crutch they fall back on.

I have a friend who is a reasonably high position in local government and when she gets thrown she tosses her hair and giggles. It drives me crazy. She is so much better than that. But it must have worked when she was young and pretty and now that she is older .... and pretty it seems like an excuse for not knowing an answer. She could say "I don't know. I will find out." and everyone would accept it because she is hands down competent skilled and award winning damn good at what she does. But still it detracts from her image of competence.

Palin acts just like a little girl. Not like a mature woman.
