Teleprompter? Pshaw. Go low tech, use the Handprompter!Follow

The only upside of this otherwise. retarded thread. Rahm Emanuel apology.

But that would require effort!

Okay, fine fine, edited.

Anyone know what it said?

I'm hearing Palin played a joke on all you liberals and the note actually was a reminder for her to say hi to her mom.

After word got out she was caught with her cheat sheet, she did indeed write "Hi Mom!" on her hand for the final day of Tea Baggery. I give her mad props for guts.

By the by Varrus, were you able to attend the convention since it was in driving distance? Or was the $549 price tag too much of a turnoff?

Oh I don't think we've ever actually gone out of our way....

Cat,



Why would I? Now if she were running for office and had a decent chance of winning I might have considered it.

As for Palin; anyone who evokes that much hatred and anger from the radical left can't be all bad.

Unintentional veiled Godwin's FTL!

Varus is a Hitler fan.

Kavek,



Yes the Democrats are. They do happen to have an ex-grand wizard from KKK as member of congress. Democrats are for extreme gun control, something Hitler supported. Democrats are for govn healthcare, something Hitler also supported.

Defending against what I view to be unfair (or just plain silly) attacks and advocating are two different things Joph. I defend your faith all the time for example (and oddly get called a religious fanatic for it, which I find amusing as hell). Some of us are able to recognize when an attack isn't a fair one and are willing to point it out.


It's not like she wrote the answers to a test on her hand or something. They're bullet points she wants to make sure she remembers to cover. I'm frankly not sure why she didn't just write them on a 3x5 card or something, but it's hardly representative of an inability to speak. Is anyone actually suggesting that merely writing a single topic header on her hand eliminates the need to actually be able to say something about the topic off the top of her head? Did she just repeat the words on her hand over and over for 20 minutes each?


I know that the visual makes for amusing mischaracterization, but that's all it really is...

And within his first sentence we have a strawman. Well done gbaji, usually you need to lecture to lecture us for 3 paragraphs before making up arguments!

You don't suppose she's getting ridiculed because this makes her look incompetent? Or maybe gives the impression she's not very bright?


Nah, that couldn't be the case.

The infinite delusion on the part of Varus, Gbaji, ThiefX and friends is mindboggling.

No, in context of US politics as a whole. I'm not asking exclusively about the 2012 election no matter how hard you want to drive the question there because it'll be easier to answer.


Absolutely.


That was pathetically ham-handed even for you but I've defended my views and reasoning regarding Obama's qualifications numerous times during the last campaign season so don't see any reason to rehash them again. I'm secure in my answer.
