For what it's worth (nothing to die-hard Republicans or Democrats, slightly more to people who identify more with a specific ideology than a specific party) I could run for president in 2020, which would generate far more of a facepalm here.

I know people who are dyed-in-the-wool Republicans for whom Limbaugh is their succor, and they still think Palin is dumb. 
Yeah. My grandma isn't too awful, but she sure loves her O'reily. However, she knows enough to know that Palin is a waste of a human.

Personally, I would use note cards over writing your talking points out on your hand. It doesn't look as silly.
Yes, but you can lose note cards and it's been weeks since she lost one of her hands.
What's the point of rating you up anymore??
I hate you.
Ok, I don't hate you. I hate that I can't rate you.
Hey hey hey, wait just a minute now. McCain is a total DILF... or wait... he's a GDILF by now, isn't he?

So because we consider Obama to be smarter than Palin.. we should laugh at her having a couple words scribbled on her hand, but yell at anyone who criticizes Obama for his constant usage of a teleprompter?
I don't think they really compare much at all. Which isn't to say one is worse (or better) than the other but just as you say "A couple of words scribbled on her hand", one could easily say "Why can't she even remember three basic talking points that she supposedly bases her political ideology on?"
The whole teleprompter thing is stupid as well. Obama went without a teleprompter and more than held his own against the GOP House Republicans for 90 minutes, even after they said "Ok, we can stop now..." and Fox News cut away from the event to start spinning damage control. Palin used a teleprompter at the Republican Convention and had her devotees swearing that it broke and she really did her speech all by memory despite multiple reports (including anyone watching it who could catch views of it from time to time) that it was working fine. They just wanted to say Palin wasn't really like Obama in "Oh noes! Teleprompter!". I'm sure she's used them since -- they're used all the time.
There's an obvious good reason to use a teleprompter when giving a speech; it lets you look out at the audience (rather than at notecards) and make sure you're saying what you meant to say instead of getting sidetracked. I suppose the main reason for crib notes on your hand is because you've spent a year mocking teleprompters and now need the help but God forbid you use the commonplace tool you spent a year laughing at. The humor isn't even in her needing help remembering stuff but that she backed herself out of using something used all the time because she needs the talking point against the President.

To be fair, at least she wasn't that republican who made fun of Obama for using teleprompters all the time, while reading off a teleprompter.
Just as Planned.

At least, he might even be a GGDYLF.

Careful; if it's Palin giving the face palm she might get ink on her face!

Posted: Feb 08 2010 at 8:33 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) What's funny is watching liberals make fun of a few notes on Palins hand when Obama can't go off the tele-prompter 5 seconds without calling someone retarded or making fun of people who drive pick-ups.
To be fair, I'd call you retarded with or without a teleprompter.

Except when he's taking questions from the GOP, amirite??

It was Raum Emmanuel (not Obama) who called someone retarded, and he was insulting progressive Democrats, for that matter.
Obama is actually a nice guy, remember that. I do not believe he is much given to profanity to express himself, when the ordinary words he uses can cut like a knife alone.

I don't understand what all the blue stuff is in the OP.
There is plenty of material to mock Palin with, without resorting to youtube videos of her glancing at her hand.

So in some people's minds, writing on your hand is really better than reading off a telepromter, something that almost everyone on TV does?

Not entirely. You did make your thread all about an explicit comparison to Obama and the "teleprompter controversy" previously "reported". If it was just about observing Palin's stupidity, why bring Obama into it?
To provoke a reaction, duh.
In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
Unfortunately, I can't just upload my pics to share with the world via premium since we just bought a house and spending money on things like premium here is rather low priority. So I apologize for the stupidly long links.
You could just alias the link with "link to pic / video", though.

They probably all thought it helped her credibility to resign the governorship, as well.
See, I may be a partisan, but I know how how to call
Yes, I did just make that joke.
