She bats her eyes coyly at the media and then plays phony dismay like Scarlet O’Hara, “Oh, Rhett….you shouldn’t have….” all the while sneaking her eyes over to make sure the cameras are still on her. Her joining the parade in the front of it, instead of the actual ride, and only riding for a few feet, so she could get prime media exposure reveals the truth.
She’s the master at playing the slow news cycle of a holiday weekend to make it all about sarah.

So Sarah Desmond (LOL) loves the smell of emissions from the bikes. No wonder she is wacked, she been breathing all that goodness in. If you read Mr Bailey’s book your article is exactly like she is. She is late and cancels on people knowning she made appointment with them already.

Seriously WTF… She slaps giant vinyl stickers of flags, eagles, the constitution and some propaganda slogans all over her reality show RV and then acts like the media are invading a personal, private family vacation?
Is this the celebrity/lunatic version of “stop hitting yourself”?
How can even the ‘bots take her seriously anymore?

The Snowbilly Grifter’s curent tour reminds of Britney Spears final summer of paparazzi, before the Conservatorship – maybe it is time someone file papers to take over Snowbilly Grifter’s life – she is obviously not competent enough to understand reality nor is any member of her family.
Seriously in need of psychiatric treatment.

No. She is not an announced or registered candidate for anything. It is not illegal for any non-candidate, private citizen to have financial support from supporters.
Back in 2005 and 2006, Obama raised $123,283 from other political action committees and put them into a political action committee of his own, which he distributed in his early Presidential primaries. Was that illegal?

Reprint for DB..
A Vietnam Veteran’s Letter To Sarah Palin – author unknown
For some time now, you have been an amusing, albeit mostly incoherent annoyance. But today you crossed a line. With that high cut helmet, carefully designed to allow your professionally coiffed hair to flow freely, you have tried to hijack a moment that you can’t even begin to understand. You decided that an event that has for years been intended to call attention to our POW/MIAs would make a really cool photo-op, as well as a great kick-off for your next get-rich-quick scheme.
Well, Sarah, you picked my war this time. I had several buddies, two of whom died within a couple of meters of me, and you zoomed right past their names on The Wall today; winking and smiling all the way. You weren’t invited, you weren’t welcome, but when has that ever stopped you?
Did you make a few extra bucks for your PAC? If so, I hope that helps you sleep tonight. Because you see, Sarah, my buddies have been sleeping for 40 years; and if they knew that a two-bit grifter like you would one day be making money off of their sacrifice, they might not be resting as easily as I hope they are tonight.
I’m a Christian, Sarah, and I don’t say this lightly … God damn you, Sarah Palin.

She could be elected only by the conjunction of a mighty cataclysm and a corrupt and powerful machine. The machine is there, but we don’t know its will. How good it is at arranging cataclysms when it doesn’t hold the Executive remains to be seen. She would be a mere instrument: if she gets the nomination, watch the back of the ticket. That will be her Cheney.

Oh she’ll run! Her monstrous ego won’t allow her do anything less. Sarah Palin is nothing more than an egotistical self promoting media whore. She reminds me of a giant leech feeding off the media attention that she creates for herself. Her giant head keeps growing larger and larger and like a giant tick, when fully engorged it will explode! Everyone will finally see her for what she really is…an empty shell of a creature that was full of nothing more than hot gas emissions and sh1t! But don’t worry Sarah, we’ll make sure the camera’s are rolling.

Actually, Monday she went to the National Archives, home of the Constitution, Declaration of Independence and other founding documents. After leaving the Archives, Palin then made a stop at President George Washington’s Mount Vernon estate, before moving on to Fort McHenry in Baltimore, the site of a crucial battle in the War of 1812.

what is the most sickening thing is how transparent all the cables and other media about covering her, as if she is really a person who would elevate society. but the whole blogosphere, and all the media know she is a ratings and click thru juggernaut. they know whether or not, she is of the importance that should be of this notoriety, which she is not, but because she makes money for every media outlet. she is the proverbial car crash, we cant help but watch, its in our nature…… like the car chases in LA, every local station with their own choppers, will go commercial free for as long as the chase goes on, as they can see their viewership go up exponentially….
it not news anymore, its infotainment………

Your right, most news stations and media don’t stick to real news anymore. They would rather cover the Palin dog and pony show. Palin is so delusional she cannot fathom that aside from her zombie like followers the rest of the country laughs at her! And the media feverishly follows her with cameras in hand because just like with those car chases they hope to catch the ‘crash ending’ on film. After all, think of the fantastic ratings! $$$$

I want to know why she is considered a special or celebrity guest at the historic sites so that she warrants private tours? She has done nothing except incite hatred. And where is the baby during this family vacation? Come on, media, ask her some tough questions! We’ll see how long she lasts then.

I was wondering the same thing. Yesterday, why didn’t any of the news reporters ask her what she and her ontourage were doing in the Veterans ‘Rolling Thunder’ rally? Wasn’t the rally a special event to honor our veterans?
Ralph
May. 30th, 2011 at 11:51 pm
The web site for the Rolling Thunder national organization says the following:
Rolling Thunder XXIV May 29, 2011
All Supporters Welcome!
You Do Not Have To Be A Member of Rolling Thunder to Ride!
Click For Information
By the way, one does not have to be a veteran to join Rolling Thunder…
And Sarah Palin’s son is a veteran who served in Iraq.
Sammy
May. 31st, 2011 at 12:00 am
The guy drove a TRUCK, for God’s asake.
Palin inserted herself in the front of the RT people who were really there to honor the fallen.
Sarah Palin was there to draw attention to herself and in doing so she disrespected the dead troops.
The so-called media in this country should be ashamed of them thenselves and the family members of the soldiers who dien in wars should be angry.
Ralph
May. 31st, 2011 at 12:15 am
It’s interesting that you claim Sarah Palin disrespected the troops by taking Rolling Thunder up on their invitation, when your statement does disrespects one of troops who served in Iraq.
Diyala, where Track served, was littered with improvised explosive devices (IED’s). There were 82 bomb blasts in a two and a half month period.
There is a problem with him being an Iraqi veteran if he drove a truck there?
Ralph
May. 31st, 2011 at 2:20 am
By the way, IEDs are the leading cause of US military casualties in Iraq and Afghanistan, making ‘driving a truck’ one of the most dangerous military jobs there.

Well, no matter what anyone says she just fooled everyone again. Maybe not Sarah Jones but she sure has the media going nuts. Apparently she did not show up in one of the historical sites she advertised, and both the media and her adoring fans were very upset.
Tonight, apparently even Fox pundits think she is upsetting the other republican candidates, yet at the same time Greta has an exclusive about her tomorrow from her bus tour.
Some people posting here and other sites wonder why we even bother with her, we do because she can be very vicious and unpredictable. She has become toxic, addictive to the USA landscape and unless we all get off the addictive behavior about her she can ruin a lot of people.

It is not fear–it is just plain laughable! With all the issues our country is facing, it is ludicrous to even think Sarah is qualified to be a candidate for President. She has done everything she can to ridicule our President–that seems to be her political platform! We have no place in our country for extreme positions, and must learn to work together for the common good. Check and see how well Alaskans like her after only half a term! We also need a leader who cares about people, and Sarah’s loyalty is to Sarah first. The amount of money she has made from SarahPAC is obscene. Do her supporters know what they are paying for? Read the news and if you can find anything good she has done, with no thought for herself, you let us know! Fear–Bahaha!

I still say she isn’t running… First one of two things is happening behind the scenes… Either she is a lot smarter than she shows in public, or someone else is running the show from behind closed doors… The Facebook/Twitter method of communicating is working perfectly, she showed she couldn’t do interviews during the 08 campaign, yet everything she posts/tweets gets picked up by the media with no questions asked to her…
She is doing her little tour and keeping herself in the spotlight and she will endorse who she wants in the next 2 elections and try to get some allies in position for a 2016 run… Since the 2010 election the republicans have destroyed themselves and they have no one that can beat Obama at this point in time, especially not Sarah Palin… She will continue playing her game until 2016 when there is a new Democrat to face and her handler will have time to continue to build up her resume and get better prepared for the whole media circus and debates of the 2016 presidential campaign…

Keith Olbermann tried once again to catch Palin on a syntactical failure, correcting her use of “foundation” to “founding.” It is perfectly fair to assume that by “foundation,” Palin meant the foundation of moral and political principles on which conventionally American thought is based, and not necessarily the actual establishment of a nation.

Run, Sarah run. Sarah Palin was so successful as a governor, she graduated early “Bitter Quitter”, she real is a “Dan Quayle” in heels. She clearly loves “dishing it out” but real can’t take it because she loves playing the victim card. Poor thing she fail as a VP candidate (her lie that her daughter was engaged was such a farce), her stand-up comic fiasco on the Jay Leno Show, please, her TV show canceled after declining rating, I guess her perpetual run for the White House is the only thing she can look forward to, but since she is a coward she will only throw small minded rocks, poor thing. Since we already had an idiot “W” that caused our current economic debacle, America knows not to trust the GOP fools who flaunt the idiocy.
You know what this current crowd of GOP liars want is to turn the United Sates into China, where only a few giant corporations run things, they own the factories, that apartments, the grocery stores, the gas stations, the newspaper and magazine publications, the radio stations, the television stations and you pay them and they get all the benefits, and if you do not like it go jump off cliff. Well some Chinese workers seeing that as individuals that they cannot progress have done just that by committing suicide. The current crowd of GOP liars want to abolish Medicare from the elderly, they want to abolish a woman’s right to choose and have control over her own body, they want to abolish collective bargaining rights, and on top of it all they want to blame the poor, the middle class and the public sector workers for a recession that the GOP created, while their beloved “Fat cats” continue to pay themselves exorbitant salaries, bonuses, fringe benefits. Yes this is the GOP “Radical Right-Wing Social Engineering” that they dream about. The win in New York was the beginning but the next will be Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin and later the other states of our nation. So run, Sarah run.
