Palin: Bloggers who question me are "living in their parents basement"
She said this in the interview with Greta Van Susteren on FOX News as Greta grilled her on the scandals of the campaign she was involved with.

Anyone else notice how pissed off and angry she looked?

1. Not everyone is as gifted a grifter as you are, Sarah.
You claim your outspoken opponents "live in their parents' basement."


Yet you're living off illegal per deims and shopping with the RNC's money, in a house built illegally using Wasilla's taxes.

2. Absolutely, she spent half the time lying about her shopping with RNC's money.
I wish an angry McCain official would go on camera and tell her she is lying.

34. I think the charges from the McCain camp were designed to give her more camera time
Make some charges, the press follows up and presto, Palin gets to stay on camera more than she would have under normal post-election circumstance.

The press pieces turn into showcases and after spending a couple of minutes refuting the charges she spends the rest of the coverage puffing herself up even more for her base when she runs in 2012.

As I guess the phrasing would go..."Briliantly played, RNC".

3. She should lock herself on her basement and stay there.

4. lol
Isn't some Republican blogger kid partly responsible for her fame? I remember seeing him on the Colbert Report I think....he started the Draft Sarah for VP petition way back.

8. William Kristol is a teen???
God, the years have been really unkind to him.

I guess evil isn't a preservative afterall.

28. Yes, some whacky ass Jews for Jesus type in Colorado...
I can't remember his name, but the recent New Yorker article detailed that he is the one who originally brought Palin to the attention of Kristol, Barnes, etc...

7. Ok, I've held back long enough.....
...pay attention, you little cooze. We concentrated our efforts on you because under no circumstances, you barely coherent bag of shit, should you have gotten within whiffing distance of the Presidency. You are every flaccid, fat man Republicant's wet dream of a "beauty queen" (if by "beauty queen" you mean throwing up a 80's pornstar hairdo) and are more than likely a swinger site profile away from obscurity.

I can only hope that the Obama Justice Department floods that jerkwater of a town of yours with 300 federal agents and does a deep rectal examination of you, your first fuckstick and your whole sick administration.

Congratulations, you'll be an excellent replacement for Preznit Fuckstick and Shitstain Shoots-Guy-In-Face once they are escorted/frog marched to prison. Go fuck yourself.

9. Zing! They also eat Cheetos, play D&D and thought that Heath Ledger would be an awful Joker
What an original criticism, Sarah. :eyes:

11. Actually, Heath Ledger *was* an awful joker . . .
They say he overdosed on pain meds, but he really died from chewing too much scenery.

18. Would you like to see a magic trick?
Compared to prior jokers, he really captured the *character* well.

The Joker, as iconified, was an insane, scene-chewing, caricature of brutal, psychopathic, madness...

Not some smooth talker (Nicholson), or make-up and costume gag (multiple TV series).

37. Well, maybe. There are so many Batmans ("Batmen?") . . .
Out there, each with a claim on iconic plurality -- and the same is true of the villains.

But from a purely thespic point of view, I hated Ledger's performance. I also hated the movie, so maybe that colored my thinking.

10. I don't want her to spontaneously combust too early . . .
I'd really like her to be around for 2012.

In the meantime, she serves as a very useful distraction for 'Licans who ought to be checking the cloakroom for their lost relevance (I think it was stolen by "Billy-Bob the Meth Maker" from South Bumfuque, Alabama), but instead will spend the next several years convincing themselves that they lost because they didn't veer far enought to the right.

12. She insults someone new with each interview. So far she's insulted the media,
the lower states, Republicans, bloggers. At this rate she'll have p.o'd everyone by the time the year's over.

Edited on Wed Nov-12-08 12:54 AM by rvablue
it's not your detractors but your supporters who live in their parent's basement.

On top of that, you are joke and have embarrassed not only yourself but many others.

Happy Reading!

to that statement.

I swear Palin's on their payroll.

24. She was referring to the stories on Trig and who's your mother
She could have killed those stories the first day by having her doctor release her medical records. Instead she until election eve at 11 PM to release a 1/2 page summary. I do not need to go into her ridiculous story she told about Trig's birth. Yeah, it's the damn bloggers in the basement in their PJ's.
