10. Only her prescribing physician knows for sure.
That is so symptomatic of pharmaco-fogginess, slow-firing synapses for sure.

5. Waiting for people to claim she invented brilliant new usage of "aspire."
English is a wonderful living language, let's all celebrate every time Quitter misuses it! Since every criticism of her is an "unfair attack" let's just alter the English language as needed.

8. Definition of "Aspire"

9. WOW! Sputnik bankrupted the "former communist USSR"?

No, dipshit, the beginning of the end for the USSR (which was always communist), was an invasion of Afghanistan and the cost of the arms race.

13. even before its collapse in 1991, debt was only about 20% of GDP. In 2004, the U.S.’s debt was 38%
and still below the 40% debt incurred after World War II.

11. From the queen of WTF statements. And she gave another one with that interview.
Does she even know what Sputnik was?

Does she even have a clue on the context Obama used the Sputnik statement as an example of inspiring America to set and reach goals?

Definitely not. But there are millions of her mouth-breathing knuckle-dragging sex-starved followers who'll watch that interview and think, "Gawd! I'd like to get into her pants! She'd make a great president!"

14. She thinks the USSR won the space race? Did Greta set her straight?
Edited on Thu Jan-27-11 01:36 PM by Beaverhausen

I think she is mixing up the Cold War and the Space Race

the Daily Show ought to be great tonight!

28. no, my point is that she thinks the cost of the Space race caused the USSR to collapse
some think the cost of the cold war at least contributed to it, and that is what I think she is refering to.

Why am I trying to figure out what this woman means?????

23. Sorry to dissapoint you...
but the USSR did win the Space Race. Not only did they send the first satellite into space but also the first man in orbit(Yuri Gagarin.) There were dozens of other smaller "firsts" for USSR(first woman in space, first space walk, first space station, etc...) but that's beside the point.

What USA did win is the "Moon race", but I have heard some Americans claim that getting to the moon somehow constituted winning the space race. It's pointless to argue. No one ever set the "official space race rules" :) so to each his own I guess...

Regarding Palin's remarks - An 84 kg metal ball with antennas definitely did not collapse the Soviet Union :) Nor did the space race as a whole. What it did create was an entire generation of engineers, scientists, mathematicians, and other academics that still contribute to the progress of science and technology around the world. If you check your local university, there's a good chance at least one of the math/science professors is from Russia (or former republics.)

16. The Ford Aspire?
Actually a neon green Ford Aspire with a pink swoosh is the kind of clown car I'd picture Sarah Palin driving.

26. Word Salad Sarah
once again exposing all that's wrong with America. She was in line to be a heartbeat from the presidency. That's just wrong-------, and frightening.
Like Ku Klux Koulter, she only appears on Pox.

27. "That woman is an idiot"

Let's get this straight . . . the Soviet Union worked to get aputnik into space and they went broke so we shouldn't aspire to anything or we'll go broke?
