Did Palin write the answers to Tea Party Convention questions on her hand?

Tonight, former Alaska governor Sarah Palin spoke to the National Tea Party Convention in Nashville, TN, an event that was ditched by other high-profile Republicans who disliked its for-profit model. After her speech, organizer Judson Phillips asked Palin several questions. One of them was about what needs to be done when there is a “conservative House and a conservative Senate.” Palin jumped right in and said, “We’ve got to rein the spending, obviously.” However, she then seemed to forget her next talking point and glanced down at her left hand, as if there were notes she had scribbled down. She went on to talk about “energy projects.” Watch it:

She just likes to look at herself...be it hand or otherwise.

she read her hand

"Look! A teleprompter in my hand"says Sarah Pain-in-the-Ass. "Am I a dumb ass or what? You betcha!"

She is a dumb broad, no question about it, but I am questioning this.

Can someone with l33t photo skills crop out when her palm is facing the camera and blow it up to see if anything is written on it?

Is there ink that appears when rubbed?
She rubs her left hand on her nylon stockings... then reads her hand .. then rubs her hand on her leg again.
It could be some type of disappearing ink.
Anyone know?

I told myself I imagined it but when I asked he said he'd seen it too.

There may be better quality on CSPAN site, but not uploaded there yet.

Dear God, they're going to show it again at 11 pm and again tomorrow morning.

Which suggests that it was taken by and posted by someone in the audience!!!

:rofl:



:P

There's SOMETHING written on her hand there, and I'd bet it isn't the phone number of some randy Young Republican.

... I have to confess I've been troubled the last two nights with the thoughts of the dozens (which in teabagger translates to "thousands") of Jack Daniels-induced teabagger hookups that are happening in the Opryland Hotel at this very moment.

Ewwwwwah! They're spawning!!!!!

thing is: what was she reading? Was it some kind of Armageddonist reinforcing symbol? Was it a small que device? This woman gets anywhere near the White House, my family and I are gone--probably France.

whoa! just wrote about this for Huffpost:

But I might have to add that still!

You have our express permission!

:hi:

It's up w/ the HD video and enlarged screencap:

thanks to all sources!

Also tried to twitter it to you, but not sure if I am supposed to use the # mark or the @ mark, then the name.

What's up with that, if I want to post a reply to get to a particular user?

I'm nycskp at twitter. http://twitter.com/nycskp

:hi:

you use "@". to msg "billy" you'd write: " @billy hey how bout that Palin? " then to see if anyone's msged you, you just click on the "@nycskp" search tab .

Were you the person who posted the original HD vid?

the real cherry would be finding out what it said of course...but since it's probably smeared shorthand that might be quite a challenge :P

I think if the Palin people respond they'll say she just had a makeup smudge or was inspecting a moose-wound...

It looks like a CNN feed.

If anyone has recorded it in HD on a DVR, that would probably be as sharp a picture as one can get.

:donut:

from the Gawker.

spent the $100,000 grand on hairdos, makeup, and wardrobe!!!

All of them have been added to my Twitter account, too: http://twitter.com/Turborama/status/8755133170

PS if anyone wants to use them, please feel free. I use Google Chrome and right click to choose the image's url...

...version, it looks like it was CNN, or maybe another carrier carrying the original video.

There might be some news tomorrow, or they'll bury it.

Nice closeups, but it looks as much like a doodle as it does any particular words.

My guess is that it had the three main points, changes she wanted to talk about, lower spending, energy, and her third point whatever it was.

A bird crapped on her hand.

Lol read some libertarian blog and this is what they are now calling them

me was the fact that almost all the news networks covered this stupid bitch. Jesus, the new networks are campaigning for the fucking repuke party. Christ...

The words "Energy", "Tax" and "Lift American Spirits" are clearly visible. There's also what appears to read as "Budget cuts" with the word Budget crossed out.

Ya'think she'd learn her lines for that kind of dough...

If Palin had a brain then she could have just thought T-E-A to remember her talking points instead of writing them on her hand.

Her Tele-Palmer read:

Energy
Budget(crossed out) Cuts
Tax
Lift Up Americans

All she would have had to do was think T E A (party) for:

T - Tax
E - Energy
A - Americans lift 'em up

That makes the whole thing even more funny! ;)
