2008 The Zero Shame Game

Posted by Charles Mudede on Tue, Sep 30, 2008 at 3:27 PM

The original comments came at an Ohio rally Monday, when Palin told the cheering crowd, "I'm looking forward to meeting [Biden] too, I've never met him before — but I've been hearing about his senate speeches since I was in, like the second grade."

Some political observers found that comment peculiar, given her own running mate is the oldest man ever to seek a first presidential term. But Palin said she was merely contrasting the differences she sees between herself and Biden.

She can only see Palin. This man McCain does not exist for her.

Yeah, it's bad enough in writing (where you think "maybe she's showing respect in her weird way?"), but when you hear it, she's just dripping with scorn and sarcasm. And adorableness. "Pew pew pew!"

so she was listening to Senatorial speeches in 2nd grade yet the only Supreme Court decision she can name is Roe v Wade?

plus, there's this. if she graduated from north jesus high in 1982, second grade was September 1971-June 1972 for Ms. Palin. Joe Biden was 1st elected in November of 1972. WHEN PALIN WAS IN THE 3RD GRADE! LIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Frankly, I like how much of SLOG is being devoted to Mrs Palin. Every minute spent attacking her is a minute spent NOT (directly) attacking the one who's actually running for President, or talking about issues. And the fun part is, she couldn't care less.
