Palin to Speak

Set your DVRs: Outgoing Alaskan Gov. Sarah Palin is set to speak to Fox News Tuesday morning. Despite a volley of Tweets and a big Facebook, Palin hasn’t given any interviews since her shock resignation at a rambling Friday-afternoon press conference. Though details are sketchy, the announcement comes on the heels of Fox News contributor Liz Trotta’s off-message remarks on Palin Monday afternoon. “The woman is inarticulate, undereducated,” Trotta said. “She just begs for adjectives like flaky and wacky.”

Fox won't even air his nationwide broadcasts, what makes you think they want him on Fox? Regardless of the idiotic blather eminating from Dubya's pie hole, all the networks did what networks should do and air the President Of The United States. Has a nice ring to it, eh? President Of The United States, BARACK OBAMA.

Chiffonade, I'm of the understanding that FOX would be more than happy to run the presguy's blather, if he would choose to blather at any time other than during American Idol.

I mean pre-empt the network's no 1 money maker once, ok, twice is anoying but understandable, 3rd time however they said "We are a business, and we fear the harm you are trying to do to our bottom line more than any left wing backlash for not airing your spot. We get more angry letters from american idol fans than obama fans, and anyway there are 3 other national broadcast systems airing you, it'll be ok, and your ego will recover eventually."

Everyone at Fox is a contributor and not an employee. So as soon as they say something unpopular they're gone. Anyone remember E.D. Hill? If palin is going to be a regular she might not last long--she's got that opine-now-think-later disorder.

You darn right, she is more than qualified to be a contender in 2012 that is, if we have a country worth having a contender for by then. At Obama's rate, I can't see one that isn't own by China. Sarah Palin accomplished more in two and a half years than most do in two terms. You need to get your head out of Keith Olbermanns ars and see what damage Obama is doing to this country. If you hadn't noticed no one is spending, investing, or putting in businesses. Jobs are not being created. Factories are shutting down and going overseas quicker than that wink you speak of. If you are a parasite then, none of that phases you anyway.

While you are harping on MSNBC's talking points, your Democratic Congress is screwing us over with code words like "Global Warming", "Cap and Trade", and "Go Green" and you are blind as a bat. Get ready because before they are through with your paycheck, if you have one or pay taxes, you will wish you had that winks, cliches, and sound bites as you want to call it.

There you go again with your title, Fox is NOT a news program, it is an arm of the idiot right wing religious party who caters to & is part of the hypocrite Confederate republican party, that is Fox pretend news....

As for the role model from Alaska to all our young woman who had to go to 5 collages in order to graduate, the woman who thought she could learn foreign policy because Russia was next to Alaska, the woman who is so stupid she studied a week before she took her Pap test, that woman is the leader if the Confederate republican party & for that job she is well suited...

The Palin Train, as you refer to it, is rollin' right off the track. Fox is nothing more than a few good TV series and their GOP spewage. That's what I love about TV. When Family Guy and Lie to Me (ironic?) are over, I can change channels before anyone is able to spray me with Media Kool Aid.

Palin will go away, where she belongs, modeling for gas station calendars and hunting bear. Palin is a joke of her own creation. Democrats didn't have to lift a finger to make her look ridiculous, she proved she's more than capable of achieving that by her little old darn self.

I, like many, understood Gov. Palin with no problem. The only ones I can see that are inarticulate and uneducated are the ones who choose not to get it like Liz Trotta. Maybe she needs someone to explain it to her in Elementary form. There seems to be a lot of grown adults with ADHD. I read a lot of jealousy in between Ms.Trotta's article of Sarah Palin's popularity and beauty. I didn't here any rambling going on with Sarah Palin when I watched her press conference. I can only assume the education part is lacking in the Democratic Party when they can't understand plain English. I guess that is why teleprompters are big hit with them. It tells them what to say and they don't have to explain they don't understand what they read, but it sounds good. Sarah Palin doesn't have to have a teleprompter and she understands everything she and everyone else says. I'd say that is pretty smart. Palin is much too honorable to talk trash about her liberal basher's children, but you can't say that about the liberals who have no problem picking on Palin's children. They have no problem filing frivolous ethics complaints, but don't want theirs touched. Enough is enough, Liz Trotta. Your kind of crap is really getting old.

As for Liz Trotta's comments regarding Sarah's being "undereducated," it seems to be that education doesn't bring a bit of common sense to the so called educated elite. If it does, I haven't seen or heard it in the majority of those educated elitists who presently inhabit this country, including Liz on this one.

Liz Trotta summarized it well. And on Fox News, where the conservatives who "like" and "respect" hang out.

I'd say let Palin talk. She is the one who demolishes the image her admirers created for her. She is the one who lets the conservatives down, every time she open her mouth.

For someone who is supposedly angry about all the publicity she's getting, Palin always manages to get herself in the news every day--and I do mean EVERY SINGLE DAY. Why is that? Is it money or ego? Both?

Here's another reason why she souldn't be president, in addition to her obvious lack of knowledge and substance. She talks too much. She doesn't know when to shut up.

You don't see any of the other Republican candidates babbling on and on like she does, except maybe Gov. Sanford of South Carolina, and he's cracked. Even he finally shut up when enough people told him to, but Palin seems to be the type who goes out very deliberately looking for trouble. That's another very bad trait for a president to have, since there is already trouble enough in this world that will find you, without looking for more.

Joanne 38, So you "understand Sarah with no problem". Ever think that that is why the rest of us - who have brains - do not want her anywhere near the reigns of power? She is nothing but a lightweight, airhead and there are MANY of us who understand that. Likewise, based on your posts, there are many of us who would never consider voting along with you either.

"Ah Palin, your stage theatrics!" announces this author, on my beholding of her in such serious and rediculous form." Here before me appears another circus to put up with. Now comedian of severe manifestations, reason to note my sentiments are engaged in the evolution of humanity, not to be subordinated to a perfomance of egomania or reduced to joann38's IQ by your inappropriate chrade of buffonery!"
Accursed by the mask of her melodramatics, I find palin of a tragic ego - that in her life's scene her obnoxious role playing would be wrought to the point of denunciation. Having exhaustingly dramatized us all by the farce and inadeqacies of her staged persona, can not at least this third-rate performer percieve such is the nuisance of her theatrical career long since over?
Now Sarah, if you cannot slay the panic of your egomania, be kind as you are transparent, and go away; and we will forget your self-aggrandized performances.
