Writing on your hand key points to hit = using a teleprompter to read your whole speech?

[billms]

No - one is professional and standard practice. The other is something done by my 7'th grader to remember his homework and women in market stalls in China to bargain with you. And Sarah Palin.

None of this would be anything more than pathetic if Palin hadn't been beating Obama up for using a teleprompter. As it is we've got another sign of just what nutters the teabaggers and their heroes are.

[sub rosa]

yes, she referred to obama as a charismatic guy with a teleprompter.

as if charisma hasn't gotten her everywhere she's been in life.

[Boilerfan]

But it was so smooooooooooth the way she read them off her hand.

[sportz4life]

Sarah Palin is easily the funniest politician in history..she reminds me of Anna Faris in the House Bunny.

[CMRivdog]

She just has to remember what palm she wrote what on....Her stand on foreign affairs could be Colby Cheese, Black Pepper and Frosted Flakes

[Mark The Shark]

So wait. Obama can't talk to Sixth Graders without a teleprompter, but Palin is the idiot for writing down a few notes?

I saw what she wrote on the left palm..it said..LEFT..the other one is RIGHT DUMMY..

[DGTigers]

Sarah Palin is the first politician in history to write notes for a speech. Great thread.

[billms]

Who are you thinking of who wrote notes on their hand DG? I can't recall *ever* seeing that. Except for kids and people who can't speak a common language - that is.

We should laugh at them all. They all deserve a thread. But Sarah is the only one I can recall. Come on - share - so we can all laugh at what morans they are.

No she is an idiot for writing her notes on her hand like a sixth grader.

Which one graduated from Harvard Law school and was the editor of the law review and which one was the sportscaster/pagent contestent.

having notes is one thing. How about a 3x5 note card. These were pre arrainged questions and she could not remember her answer to a question something like "what are the first things needing to be addressed by the president?" or something like that. Just put your notes on paper like an adult not a sixth grader.

[ToledoTigerFan]

It's not bad that she wrote notes. It's how she wrote her notes. Christ, use a 3x5 card. There's no shame in using notes. It made it look like she was cheating on her history test.

[Anthony]

Is this really that big a deal?

We are mocking her because she can't own up to her own need for a mnemonic aid, and tried an adolescent tactic instead. That's pretty damn immature. But I guess it's that slightly pre-pubescent innocence and stumbling girlishness that the sheep love.

Don't hold it in, tell us how you really feel.

Obama didn't need a teleprompter to school the house Republicans two weeks ago.

But when you're President of the United States, and anything you say (and consequently, any misspeak) could be interpreted or misinterpreted by billions of people, it doesn't hurt to make sure you are saying exactly what you mean to say. So I don't care that he uses a teleprompter. It's a smart thing to do.

[Oblong]

She's saving the environment. Why kill a tree just for appearances. Jesus, some people are so vain.

You gonna pan fry him mark?

Crappe or Specks as we call them down here are cool. No politics involved in their contributions.

Yep, just more of the same crap being laid out by the "just don't get it, and never will" left.
Dan Quayle is an idiot, G. Bush another idiot, Ollie North idiot, Palin idiot -- nah, no pattern here by the left. Their paint brush gets bigger by the day -- but they have a huge surprise coming in the near future. Joe Average American is getting tired of the elitist attitude of referring to people like Palin as dumb, imbeciles unable to tie their own shoes, because it means Joe Average is also the same. The name calling gets really old and until the left wakes up, just let them nail their own coffins closed. It's hilarious to watch.

Obama is so brilliant that even with a Super Majority he couldn't get anything done and still blames it on the powerless Republicans. Dude is the most ball-less president we've ever had IMO.

As far as nutters go, people who think spending money to solve a debt problem are the nutters.

Surely you must be kidding! The only one he fooled with that staged silliness was himself, and I doubt if he even believes it. The American people are what matters and he's so far out of touch with them the only thing he has left is that silly smirk and his teleprompter and that ain't workin' no more!!! He needs to stop his preachin and start listening, but he's way too pompous to bother listening to American citizens. He's got his agenda and he's going to go ahead with it no matter what American wants.......very similar to what George Bush did.

You do realize she had her speech in front of her, don't you?

The notes on her hand were points to hammer during the Q&A. And only three of them at that.

Bold parts 1 and 2: At least you broke it into two paragraphs. But I can't really argue the "ball-less" part. He should be standing up to the Republicans more.

Bold part 3: he has been doing what I've been saying. I am an American citizen.

Since when was using a teleprompter a sign of weakness and viewed as negative? I don't get this?

About the time that "elite" became a bad word.

Didn't hear you using this when the president was a guy who graduated from Yale AND Harvard.

Why does it mean that Joe Average is the same?

You mean the guy who went to Yale because his family is a dynasty, then was rejected from UT's law school on the merits before getting into Harvard b-school because of his name and had bad grades throughout? Impressive

Obama graduated Harvard Law as editor in chief of the law review and w/ magna cum laude honors

[Oblong]

Do they teach now many states there are at Harvard Law?

It's roughly commensurate with the proliferation of Obama Derangement Syndrome.

I dont know about you guys, but based upon the threats in the world today, lets be honest about the necessity of critical thinking skills.

The intellect necessary to be the editor of the Harvard Law Review is a little more substantial than this educational backround..

In 1984, she won the Miss Wasilla pageant,[22][23] finished third in the Miss Alaska pageant,[24] [25] and received the Miss Congeniality award and a college scholarship.[19]

She attended Hawaii Pacific University in the fall of 1982 and North Idaho College in the spring and fall of 1983.[26] (In June 2008, the Alumni Association of North Idaho College gave her its Distinguished Alumni Achievement Award).[27] She attended the University of Idaho in the fall of 1984 and spring of 1985, and attended Matanuska-Susitna College in the fall of 1985. She returned to the University of Idaho in the spring of 1986, receiving her bachelor's degree in communications with an emphasis in journalism from there in 1987.[5][26][28][29]

After graduating, she worked as a sportscaster[30] for KTUU-TV and KTVA-TV in Anchorage,[31] and as a sports reporter for the Mat-Su Valley Frontiersman,[32][33] fulfilling an early ambition.[34]

In 1988, she eloped with her high school sweetheart Todd Palin,[35] to spare her parents the expense of a "big white wedding."[36][37] After the marriage, she helped in her husband’s commercial fishing business.[38]

this is who you guys on the right, want running the country?? This is your brightest and best?? more power to you!! I'm not very political, but if she is running for President, I will become political for the first time in my 53 years..I will become an activist...I'm not kidding.

Sarah Palin’s “Going Rogue” review : The New Yorker

Hawaii was a little too perfect," Palin writes. "Perpetual sunshine isn't necessarily conducive to serious academics for eighteen-year-old Alaska girls." Perhaps not.

But Palin's father, Chuck Heath, gave a different account to Conroy and Walshe. According to him, the presence of so many Asians and Pacific Islanders made her uncomfortable: "They were a minority type thing and it wasn't glamorous, so she came home."

Why are you looking to me to defend Sarah Palin?

I was just making a joke against the President. That's still legal... just don't let Holder know.

[Edman85]

Palin's an idiot.

Nope..just generalizing..I know better than to assume anyones political beliefs..I'm going to speculate you hope for a president with a better intellectual and educational skill set..
