Obama Campaign Responds to Palin Prank Call

What a nice way to say -
“we’re not that stupid”.
Way to go Sarah!!
I think a few more swing votes
just realized how dumb you really are.

Looks like Sarah Palin is all for “chating without pre-conditions”!!!

Just listened to the prank and couldn’t believe what I was hearing. By God, where is the common sense of the Gov. not to suspect when the pranker claims that his wife is hot in bed. Come on people, what is wrong with this lady? I’m just puzzled and God help us.

How does Sen. Obama figure that he’s a uniter. He told a bunch of San Francisco billionaires that they should pity small-town Pennsylvanians because they are bitter, and their Second Amendment and faith are but explanations to their frustrations. Has he ever even talked to a small-town Pennsylvanian before? it must have gone something like the Joe-the-Plumber convesersation: I like you if you sit pretty and submissive and be a photo-op prop, but if you ask me a tough question, I’m gonna tar and feather you, and marginalize and ridicule you… hehehe (shakes head: in ebonics), “what kind of plumber makes over $250,000 per year?” or Sen. Biden, “it’s patriotic to pay more taxes.” I think tax-and-spend politics is ruininous for our country. I don’t contend that Sen. Biden loves our country and thinks tax-and-spend policies are good for our country, I don’t question his patriotism for believing that, I would appreciate it if he wouldn’t question my patriotism for believing that lower taxes and smaller government is good for our country. Sen. McCain and Gov. Palin used the most proper, straight-forward, matter-of-fact term they could use to describe the Obama plan: socialism. They didn’t call them Nazis (National SOCIALIST Party), they didn’t call them Communists, they even made the distinction that it’s democratic Western European socialism, a la France, that they want to imitate. They never questioned Sen. Biden’s patriotism, they simply disagree with him on his contention that socialism is best for our country. and just a few days ago, Sen. Obama said that people who wanted lower taxes were just selfish. well, I want lower taxes, not just for me, but for my employer, too, so he can give me more pay and pay Uncle Sam less taxes. I want lower taxes on Wal-Mart, too, because I don’t want them to have to charge me more so they have something to give to Uncle Sam. AND I think that would be better for our country. I don’t call Sen. Obama’s supporters in the lower 40% tax bracket “selfish” for wanting me, a tax-payer, to fund them a welfare check. I don’t find Sen. Obama “transendent” or a “unifier” when he stands behind that homemade Seal of the “President” of the United States of American and say, “If you don’t agree with my tax-and-spend policies, you’re unpatriotic,” or “If think lower taxes and smaller government is good for our country, you’re selfish.” He doesn’t even spend the time to consider, why do so many Americans believe in lower taxes; why do so many Americans value their Constitutional Second-Amendmenet right, and their fairth. He doesn’t, not for one second, think those are legitimate beliefs, and he looks for ways to explain them, perhaps it’s bitterness, and perhaps it’s selfishness, but to Sen. Obama, it’s deserving of Comedy Central-esque ridicule.

Sarah Palin, a Neiman Marxist

You mean telephone calls like Obama’s Aunt living in poverty and illegally in Boston who has been trying to get help from Obama, but he ignores her?
Did ACORN register her to vote, too?

Today I heard Sarah Palin say that Democrats cannot protect America. This has been true in the past. We were not able to protect America from George Bush. We were not able to protect America from economic implosion. Nor were the Republicans. We will protect America from Sarah Palin, though, and in that spirit we are united. She is indeed from the lunatic fringe and should never hold an office. Shame on Alaska for voting this fruit basket into office. And you know what, I was OK with Sarah Palin right up until the moment she made that particular comment. Shame, shame on Sarah Palin.

WestCoastMessenger,
is that really you?? If it is, then this is truly a great day for America. I have read your past posts and if this is indeed the one I know, then I can’t tell you how happy I am. Welcome back.

I am so glad that now the world can see the “true” Sarah Palin, flirting, laughing at dirty remarks, talking about killing things, and not even recognizing one of the ten names they throw at her who aren’t politicians. And she doesn’t understand France & socialism at all!
Yeah, I’d feel so “safe” with Sarah flirting with international world leaders on the phone– while our foreign policy and the military are at stake.

I can’t wait to see the polls on Monday. Thank you, Sarah Palin, thank you.

Sarah Palin, a Neiman Marxist
Now that is FUNNY!!

Haven’t I seen this fake ‘former Obama supporter’ poster before? Get real. Marxist, terrorist, blah blah blah. You have your ‘facts’ wrong, your quotes wrong…give it up. You really don’t know what you’re talking about, much like Sarah.

Witless From Wazilla strikes again! Seriously, she sounded like a giddy, immature 14 year old in the phone call. She represents a tragic legacy to the end of McCain’s career.

This same prankster got through to Queen Elizabeth and the former president of France. You don’t hear any negative comments about that, do you!?

sarah palin is not ready to be vice president let alone president. this is just one more nail in john mccain’s presidential candidate coffin

Did Sarah ‘deserve’ this prank?
She deserved it for taking the call with ‘no pre-conditions’.

jrock5, you wrote:
“Hey Julie,
While you’ve been sitting around, obviously making a great success of yourself, Palin worked her way to the top. She didn’t ride the coattails of a husband or rich uncle. She made schools better with the PTA, then was elected to be a mayor, then elected governor. She has the highest approval rating of any governor.
If you think that is the work of a dummy, I wonder how you stack up?
Either you are threatened or you are jealous, because Palin is exceptionally bright, talented, and accomplished.”
Let’s not forget the state that she’s governor in; Alaska. Most people there live in Igloos and eat blubber. Perhaps she’s got blubber on the brain, I CAN SEE RUSSIA FROM MY HOUSE, give me a break. I can now understand why so many Republicans are coming out against her and you think shes smart. Probably because you finished the fifth grade and she finished the sixth grade.
Way to go Sarah baby! You done good fer Johnny boy!

This is really unbelievable! Unfortunately, she is in way over her head, and shame on the McCain camp for not vetting her properly. Shame on the McCain camp for throwing her to the wolves (the ones she didn’t shoot). Shame on the McCain camp for allowing her to make comments like “pro-America,” so that we’re all left to guess whether we live in a “pro-” or “not-so-pro” part of our own nation.
Shame on the McCain camp for not simply screening their calls.
And, I challenge all of you who think that this “Obama aunt” thing is a real issue to do a fact check of your own. How many of you can locate every single one of your relatives (especially those from the side of your estranged father)? People who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.
P.S. Palin is not the future of the GOP. Take a look at the governor of Louisiana, Bobby Jindal. He’s gonna blow her out of the water.

Yes, it is bad enough they (McCain’s Camp) can’t protect Palin…but, like I said:
It was not a prank call. It was a friendly call to let her know she will be impeached on November 5th for all her lies and unethical behavior as Gov!!!! She mis-took it for a PRANK CALL! Wake up Palin! Your days are numbered (3 days!)
Obama/Biden 2008!!

The only thing this says is how embarassingly poor Palin’s security is. It’s up to her aides to screen the calls. If they said it was a legitimate call from the French President, Palin has to trust them. Even if she did question why Sarkozy would be calling her, what’s she gonna do? Hang up and risk insulting the President of an allied country? And if she did notice inconsistencies, she isn’t likely to contradict Sarkozy and risk hurting relations with him. You have to keep in mind, Palin is not at fault, her aide that told her it was Sarkozy without checking it is.

A few years down the road, Americans and the rest of the world will look back at Palin’ foibles with a magnified realization and profound disbelief that she re-defined ‘foolish’ for the U.S.

The true irony is that out of MILLIONS of robocalls, it’s the call to her cell that takes her down.

This is yet another wake-up call for those voter’s who are thinking about casting a vote for McCain. I wonder if America may end up seeing a landslide larger than the polls are hinting at. Republican’s may be telling pollsters they support McCain, but ultimately I think the Palin factor may well end up suppressing the GOP turnout or they will vote for Obama in the booth thereby causing a larger than expected landslide. The heavy early voter turnout may also be an indication that voter’s have seen and heard enough of Palin’ antics that they have made up their minds early and they are simply going to the polls early to get it over with. Something along the lines of what I think of being the Palin ‘fright factor’.

Wait until the normally Conservative leaning Cajun Louisianans here this prank. They’ll learn that the lady who calls hereself “Rouge Cou” actually should be called a “Rouge Cul”.

The prankster call is yet another illustration of Sarah Palin’s monumental ego and lack of common sense. What would the French president be doing calling a candidate at her level? She is clearly out of touch with any reality except her own ego mania. This the nominee of the tragic figure John McCain who will do anything under pressure from his Rovian handlers to win…not the behavior of a maverick as I understand the term. As respected Repulicans have noted, he has put America in harms way by choosing her.. America first? Really, Senator McCain?

Yeah…lets support a lying hypocrite because Hollywood idiots Andy and Opie say its a good idea. Maybe Obama can dig up Aunt Bee for an endorsement too.

this tape is incredible as if we needed any more proof of this circus show – can’t wait until all the lagging media networks pick this up and broadcast it. This is the “NOVEMBER SURPRISE!” we’ve been waiting for!

My fellow Republicans, PLEASE reject this ridiculous woman and the ignorance she stands for so we can start rebuilding the party!
Sarah Palin is a blight upon our nation’s history and a threat to our future. We can do better…in another election.

She’s an idiot

Chatting it up with a foreign head of state on an unsecure communications line and without going through the proper channels. What a national security nightmare, Palin is.

Just another example of Palin’s total ignorance and intellectual incuriosity about anything beyond the borders of her beloved Alaska.
Other examples?
How about not being able to answer simple questions in an interview, such as which newspapers she regularly reads to find out what’s happening in the world.
Or 5 colleges in 6 years to get a Journalism/Communications degree–not exactly a high-brow major.
Or not knowing that fruit fly research is not about fruit flies, but is a fundamental model for studying human genetics.
Or not realizing that the VP is NOT in charge of the U.S. Senate, apparently not understanding what the term “presides” means in this context.
Or having no clue about the nature of the “Bush Doctrine”.
Or not even knowing that you cannot see mainland Russia from mainland Alaska, let alone her back yard.
Shall I continue?

Palin has the IQ of a water spider trying to cross a pond teaming with starved piranha.

Appearing soon in the cereal isle at your local grocery…. Sarah Palin on the box covers of Fruit Loops and Frosted Flakes… all “Commemorative Editions”

You hear how her staffer handled this ostensibly official phone call? By asking the caller to “Hold on a sec.” My mom wouldn’t have allowed me to answer the phone so presumptuously.
The past weeks have convinced me that the only measure a candidate’s fitness for office is the campaign they run, the kind of people with whom they surround themselves, etc. Funny or not (and I think they could have zinged her much better), this shows the McCain/Palin camp’s ineptitude on several levels.

Sarah has nobody but herself to blame for the disaster that is her run for the office of VP. With this latest headline prank, her unbridled ego @ laughable self importance has reveled itself to the public with the subtly of Cheney’s shot gun.
Will she survive politically? Yes. She was ordained by Dobson and the Christian right and she holds to their twisted and sick version of “Family Values”. All will be forgiven of the Blessed Sarah as long as she continues to carry their water. She is after all, a clean slate to be made in their image.
Heaven help us all.

You obamabots are not good for the Dem ticket. Why so much hate towards Palin?
Anyway, she’s not voting for nobama .. and that a few IQ points higher than yours!!

God is finnally give Sarah Palin a robocalls, and she answer it fantastically

I’m a democrat supporting Obama, but I think they need to leave Palin alone…..I can’t wait until this is all over with!!

That is one main reason Wendy Button quit Obama and is voting Mccain/ Palin
Wendy Button
“When someone takes on a corrupt political machine and a sitting governor, that is not done by someone with a low I.Q. or a moral core made of tissue paper. When someone fights her way to get scholarships and work her way through college even in a jagged line, that shows determination and humility you can’t learn from reading Reinhold Niebuhr. When a mother brings her son with special needs onto the national stage with love, honesty, and pride, that gives hope to families like mine as my older brother lives with a mental disability. And when someone can sit on a stage during the Sarah Palin rap on Saturday Night Live, put her hands in the air and watch someone in a moose costume get shot—that’s a sign of both humor and humanity.”

I think people are not paying attention to the biggest part of the prank call….Palin and the rethugs are accusing Obama of Socialism…France is a Socialist state….Did anybody hear Palin say France is a good example for America?? This aftr attacking Obama for being too “European”…..Hypocrites…

Sarah would be better off staying at home sitting in front of the tv while attempting to dunk cookies in a glass of milk
that’s more of her speed

Anyone who makes less than $250,0000 a year and votes McCain , is just like a chicken voting for Colonel Sanders.
Say it with me now…President Obama…not so hard now, is it? Look guys,with President Obama we will be getting an intelligent leader with the wisdom to make the correct decisions.
We tried dumb and incompetent for 8 years now…hasn’t worked out so well for America has it? The really scary thought is that the mental midgets who voted Bush into office are willing to do the same for McCain!!Thats all this country needs right now…confused and incompetent.The guy might have been okay back in 2000 when he was 64 yrs old. He’s now 72 and showing way too many signs of losing it. Hell he doesn’t even know the dif. between Shia and Sunni!

Oracle with due respect, Sarah Palin agree that French and French President that she believe in this called is a great example for U.S democracy. Don’t you ever listen to the call?

Ha,Ha,to all you rich,or dumb, Republicans get ready to say goodbye to your tax breaks and say hello to some nice new liberal Supreme Court Judges.Ha,Ha,Ha,

U.S is ranking 132th voting turn out on the election date, and Iran is ranking 54th in the world. Please go out to vote for Obama, and bring this country to democracy again.
Sarah Palin is a joke candidate, and John McCain is irresponsible, and he put himself first before his country by selectin Mrs. Palin.

I cannot imagine the ignorance that has gone into some of these comments. It is sickening to think that such an important aspect of American life (democracy) is causing some people to act like illiterate twits. Come on now. Palin is a ditz, we get it. McCain is old, gotcha. How about doing some real campaigning for Obama, rather than smearing his opponents in here? We Democrats should know better than to lower ourselves to the level of the McShame campaign.

It wasn’t Sarah Palin’s fault! Blame McCain for picking her and destroying her (and her family). Imagine how her family will feel when the story of the prank call reaches them. Yes, Sarah is not ready to be the VP or the President but she only should be held responsible partly for it (she shouldn’t have taken up the offer from McCain) but it’s McCain who screws up. McCain has to lose BIG – to do justice to Sarah Palin. Come to think of it, what President in the world would call a female US Presidential candidate out of nowhere to talk about killing animals, “hot in bed” etc.?

I am in college right now but when i do get a real job Obama’s taxes will prevent me from getting ahead just to pay for his spread the wealth programs

I thought Repubs hated the French…maybe Palin thinks she’ll get some great designer clothing hook ups?

Oh and “true american”?? Anyone who has to label themselves as such, most likely ain’t. Most likely too slow to even understand why…

++++++++++++++++++++
Ain’t? Really?….. As a “True American”, I pledge allegiance to the flag, something Obama has been caught NOT doing many times. No one has ever had to question my American citizenship. I believe in the Constitution, something Obama does not and wants to change it (also caught on tape), I would never sit in a church for one day much less 20 yrs listening to someone GD America and making racist comments. I would never be friends with someone who was responsible for blowing up the pentagon and killing a police officer and bombing a supreme court judges home with his family inside.
I guess I have to give you a pass since you are obviously voting for Obama, therefore, wouldn’t understand what being a “true american” is.

happy democrat… wow…your going to be making over $250,000 a year right out of college?!?!? Good for you!!!bless your poor little soul.

I just wanted to say that the ignorance displayed by people on the internet is amazing. It seems hard to find a republican with an ounce of intelligence. Knowledge is completely lacking. And then everyone else starts using terminology that they do not understand. “Socialist”, “Communist”, “Capitalist”. These are economic classifications primarily based on ownership of the means of production. No country in Europe, or the world for that matter, is socialist. Sometimes countries nationalize activities that do not run efficiently or ethically under capitalism, but this is not socialism. A factory taken over by its workers and run for the benefits of its workers is an example of socialism. The roads in America are mostly owned by the states and shared by us all. Are we socialists when we are driving? Learn to think, read some economics and history rather than showing your ignorance. I doubt most republicans will ever get it because to the extent they are like Palin they have no intention of trying to understand anything other than figuring how they can screw the system. So PLEASE before you reply with cathartic emails, learn something of economics and politics.

Sarah, Sarah, Sarah !!!
This is a woman who could be president if god forbids what happened to old Pres.McCain? Poor poor Sarah, she is clueless. If she has the brain of a caribou and can not even ward off frank calls, how do you expect her to handle national security issues??? I see a fraud and a fake Sarah. Fake, fake, fake ! All the things coming out of her mouth sound so hollow. McCain, how could you be so blind to pick a fake one. If you lose this election, you so deserved it.

Put a fork in McCain/Palin. They’re done. Overdone. Burnt to a crisp. Please, Mother Nature: Send us an ethical, responsible Republican, just so we know they aren’t completely extinct.
Vote Obama/Biden! No more Republicans, until they stop acting like complete morons!

About as bad as Joe Biden asking a guy in a wheel chair to stand up…”Cmon…don’t be bashful”….stupid idiot.

PRICELESS
I also like the QVC commemorative plates to the 10 town hall meetings that John showed on SNL, they were blank because Obama didn’t show for the debate.
Huge giant money buying the networks is the funniest stuff Obama ever tried.

My first reaction to the call was, “Aw, what a mean thing to do!” Then I remembered to whom it was done and I did most shamefully chuckle. Still, those who live by the Rove must die by the Rove…by the way has anyone noticed that if you scramble the leters in ROVE you get OVER?
Goodnight Missus Calabash wherever you are.

I’m a democrat supporting Obama, but I think they need to leave Palin alone…..I can’t wait until this is all over with!!

Have you met the newest Republican?
Remember the intellectual and silver tounged speeches Obama mouthed that made you think he was intelligent?
His speech writer Wendy Button is so disgusted with the real Obama she left 2 days ago and is voting McCain.
I thought you knew everything.
You should try to sound intellectual when you post in the future.

God is finally provide John McCain campaign with a robboccal

Mrs. Moore,
Obama said it when he was in Oregon.
I think you can find it on the u tube site.
You can always tell when the speechwriter wasn’t with him.
The truth of his intellect came out of his mouth.

Obama is a True Socialist leader, but I would never give him the distinction of being a “True American”.
The fact is, if Bush had not gone into Iraq and stupid people hadn’t voted Pelosi, Reid, Dodd, Franks, Obama into the senate our economy would be doing great and McCain would be waaaay ahead in the polls.
America tends to lean to the right. That is why Republicans have won 7 out of the last 10 elections and why Bush, who has never been a good speaker still won over a sitting VP, Gore and John Kerry.
Obama wants to be Jimmy Carter’s 2nd term. The economy under him was so bad, it makes the current economy look great and Obama is following his exact policies.
Bill Clinton ignored the terror attacks that led up to 9/11 and didn’t think Al Qaeda was a threat, just as Obama thinks Iran is a tiny country that is not a threat to the US.
“Spreading the Wealth” is not an American thing and people are very resisitent to it.

imagine her talking to foreign leaders.
“Like, yeah, you know. We the American people are, like, so glad you could talk to us. And, you betcha, we could use a friend like you guys. That’d be just awesome.” wink, wink. folksy talk just won’t work when english is a second language to foreigners.

I can’t believe Palin saying that France is a good example for us in the audio. France is a socialist country. What a shame.

PAY ATTENTION TO THE COMMENTS BELOW:
THE RIGHT: ARE ANGRY AND UPSET
THE LEFT: ARE HAPPY AND GLEEEEFUL
I Guess the ap poll was right……sorry “right” you’re going to have to give it up for at least another two years….that’s what 8 years of a failed executive branch will do.

I’m glad she will be gone after Tuesday. Palin and the campaign staff ruin McCain’s honor and reputation. He didn’t deserve that.
The far right racial conservative nuts have to accept Obama. You handed the presidency to him. He outsmarted all of you. Say all your racist remarks and lies and half truths. It won’t change anything because it looks desperate now. Even the leak about Obama’s aunt. Now there is an investigation against the republican party. What idiots. Nothing will stick anymore.
Even the dumb a@@ Fox network and Hannity ran 24 hours of smears which turned off America.

Even though this is a prank call, Americans are now able to listen to and assess how Palin handles a call with someone she thinks is an international leader . . . it’s pretty bad folks
on the same day Cheney endorse McCain.
the truth is out when Cheney thinks you’re up to his standards.
not a good day for the Republicans

prefros
you people never learn there is only one thing that can make Obama president and thats the actual vote count and since he doesnt pass the smell test it wont go his way

Whats worse is making Obama president. Then we will be the laughing stock of the world

wow.. Obama’s half aunt loves America more than Sarah and Todd Palin combined. She wants to become a citizen of America while Todd Palin wants to leave her and make Alaska its own country. How unpatriotic. It is appalling that an African loves America more than a candidate running for office.

Isn’t it great how we’ll have the support of the world after Obama is elected President?
Sarah Palin is a drag on the McCain ticket because everyone knows she is so stupid and can’t think herself out of a paper bag.

jackt51
Naw! SNL was a riot tonight and Ben Affeck “endorsed” mccain because Obama just follows other losers with the same resume a lot of people are goignto make up their mind and vote for mccain because of that show tonight it was pricesless and the skit using QVC because Obama has all the other media locked up was priceless

dee dum
yea well obama isnt filthy rich on paper just acts like it he reminds me of of the brothers in Trading places who took eddie murphy off the street and made him a stock broker and put an investment person in the poorhouse

patriot
Joe the plumber was minding his own business when Obama came by and used the opportunity to ask him a question which he doesnt even let the media do because he cant answer questions with a teleprompter its just exactly like Bush in 2004 with the mysterious box in the center of his suit jacket in the debates and an ear peiece where he was beign fed answers by rove… rove and axelrod are the same animal!

Sarah Palin wants to create more gov’t programs for special needs children – it’s all she’s been talking about lately. Gov’t programs paid with my taxes are socialist. Why should my taxes have to pay for her down syndrome baby?
She should use birth control as it is dangerous to have kids after 40 years of age. How irresponsible of her. She wants me to have to pay for all her kids to go to public school and now she wants me to pay for her down syndrome baby.
What a socialist. She should stop looking at Russia from her house and just go ahead and move there.

new president
I see the polls and they are getting narrower and that means obamas electoral count is goign to go down and that with the 6 percent of people that are goignto vote for mccain because of obamas race… it will be a long night

To you bunch of morons who love Joe the Plumber, had you LISTENED to what Obama said to him – and not McCain’s version of it – he said it was so that people could have jobs and money to spend at Joe’s business. But keep listening to the people who are lying to you.
More jobs overseas (like McCain sending a big airplane contract to Airbus in France) means less jobs here.
Spreading the wealth, you bunch of morons, is making sure YOU have a job so that YOU can spend money which then boosts the economy.
Honestly, get a clue.

CBS poll today: Obama had a 13 point advantage over McCain. Step away from the Drudge. No wonder he is no longer the king of the internet.
After Palin’s show of utter ignorance today, I expect it to get closer to Bush levels of approval by Tuesday.

MsJoanne
the CBS combined polls are outliers all you needto look at is the PA local poll that has mccain within 3 pts you better be very afrraid the electoral college landslid is a hoas being perpetrated by the media when that doesnt happen go burn down all the news studios!

Poll average in PA:
51.2 43.7 Obama +7.5
This includes Rasmussen at +4 Obama. All the other polls are near double digits in Obmaa’s favor.
And to the jerk who is spamming, You’re a racist jerk. How proud you must be.

MCCAIN IS BEING FORCED TO DEFEND TRADITIONAL RED STATES LIKE NORTH DAKOTA AND GEORGIA.
IT LOOKS LIKE A LANDSLIDE WIN FOR OBAMA!!

Patriot
Mccain is maintaining his lead in GA and ND it will be no landslide win… and the media have these double digit polls out there so people like you wont riot before the election is over with

i LOVE HOW THE oBAMA CAMPAIGN HANDELS things they could have slamed Palin for the prank call but insted they just said it wouldnt happen with them….
McCain Palin would have slamed Obama if it was him…
Obama 08

I am going to kill myself because I am a sinner. I had sexual relations with John McCain. Even though we knew it was wrong, it just felt so right.

John Cleese was on Countdown yesterday. He pointed out that John McCain “palled” around with communists in Hanoi for 6 years, ate their food and had his accommodation paid for by them. He then sought to normalize relations with Communist Vietnam. This man should be disqualified from running as President. God help us!! Wake up people!!

WHEN YOU GOT TO VOTE THIS TUESDAY…LOOK AT YOUR CHILDREN AND THEN ASK DO YOU WANT THEM TO HAVE A BETTER LIFE THAN YOU. IF SO I KNOW YOU WILL DO THE RIGHT THING AND ELECT THE BEST CANDIDATE FOR CHANGE…OBAMA 2008…ENDORSED BY YOUR ABLITY TO CHANGE AMERICA…VOTE

Ok, here I go again with another dumb “blonde” statement. Do you folks not realize that it is indeed we white voters that will elect Obama?

Joe the Plumber = the second coming of Jesus Christ!

It is so sad that a potential vice president could be duped by a couple of comedians. I feel very sorry for her, but it is worrying that a vice president or president could be so easily be made the fool. This goes beyond a couple of city slickers manipulating an inexperienced and naïve small town hick, it illustrates the jeopardy of the United States being placed in the hands of an unqualified person. The comedians obviously played on her inflated ego being eager to accept international prominence. Maybe she can be forgiven, as she is not able to see Canada from her bedroom window. How is she to know who the prime minister of Canada is, or that Quebec does not have a prime minister, or that you cannot see Belgium from Paris. You cannot expect a small town beauty queen to understand the complexities of our international relationships or even the foreign countries involved. Her level of understanding seems to be limited to what she might have picked up reading the celebrity magazines while waiting at the local beauty parlour.

Please, people, try to be civilized- its obvious that the extreme right hates the extreme left and that there is prejudice and hatred in the world- there are enough wars in the world to prove this- it would be nice to hear a compassionate veiw of Palin’s difficulties due to her lack of experience- even though she is not of my liking I cant help but feel badly for her here…

Somehow I doubt the point of this affair is that in contrast to McCain’s campaign the Obama campaign is so organized that they “first double check before handing the phone to Obama”. And although it is a pretty amazing accomplishment from Palin to NOT detect something is out of order, that is not entirely the point either. The point I think is that it appears that Palin is so totally dependent and trusting of the judgment of the people around her, that she would dismiss in her own mind any doubts that might try to surface. And that would make her the perfect puppet president. The buck isn’t gonna stop at Sarah Palin’s desk, Big Oil and wealthy interest groups can just continue throwing money at it and the bucks will just keep on rolling unchecked.

I thought it sounded like Palin knew the call wasn’t real just by listening to it this morning.

Someone this gullible and lacking in sense should not be in the White House.
She is also a total phony, and a dangerous one at that.
Her staffers must all be idiots as well,
how could a call like that even get through?
I’m sure we can look forward to more hilarity, at the country’s expense, if she gets in the White House, God forbid.
I’m starting to think she was picked just to make Bush look good by comparison.

Once again, Palin’s staff let her down. She should be able to trust the staffer who says, “the President of France is on the line.” For an audio of the call & translation of some of the jokes, go to the Entertainment section of the lower right column. There’s audio for a Chris Rock get-out-the-vote rally there, too. Jake’s post is linked, too.

As much as I think Sarak Palin doesn’t have the intellect or experience to be VP (let alone President – Sheesh) I’ll give her a pass on this one. (lol)
The fact is the woman doesn’t know “jack” about the world, world history and frankly I’d bet she’d fail American History as well. She isn’t nor has she ever been an academic or well read.
She’s nothing more than a ploy to mobilize the Conservative masses who only vote for “hot” topics like abortion, guns, taxes, etc. Very rarely do you ever come across a “Conservative” who votes based on the SUM of everything. Instead, the vote based on ONE variable in the equation.
In my humble opinion, Sarah was and should be a DEAL breaker for every conservative. How exactly do you vote for a 72 year old man with a questionable medical history with HER in line to succeed him if he dies? I mean really. Better yet, why aren’t more Conservatives concerned about Sarah’s inability to produce her MEDICAL records this late in the game? What exactly is she hiding?
How many times have we heard Republicans using the old what is he hiding tactic (knowing the answer is nothing)? Yet here you are two days from the election and she’s holding out. Talk about robots. Pathetic.

The fact that the call got through and Palin was pranked really isn’t incredible news. It can and has happend to others. It was her actions and comments, however, that were most frightening. Did anyone hear the way she initially addressed a foreign head of state? Hellooooo. The schoolgirl giggling was embarrassing. This woman should not be near the red phone…

Thanks Quebec!

Ok, c’mon, even you mindless republicans have to admit by now that Sara Palin is not in any way shape or form ready or capable of holding a position in high office. Paleeeeze! Tell us after hearing Palin exposing her cluelessness and stupidity and deceitfulness in this call, that you would be comfortable with her holding high office and dealing with foreign leaders on America’s behalf. Would you reallty trust her with negotiating with people like Putin in a crisis? If you mindless republicans can’t even be honest with that, then you are simply proving that you don’t have a rational brain.

all she did was be polite!
