Rep. Barney Frank and Sarah Palin at the winter Gridiron Club dinner

Below, Todd Palin's cummerbund is modeled after the Alaskan flag.

Palin faces 'death panel' and leaves 'em laughing

GRIDIRON CLUB | She lightheartedly roasts journalists at their annual dinner

WASHINGTON -- "Sometimes you just got to trust your instincts. And when you don't, you end up in places like this," joked former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin at the Gridiron Club winter dinner. She was speaking to an unfamiliar audience Saturday night -- an exclusive gathering of journalists.

"At least now I can put a face to all the newspapers that I do read," Palin continued, spoofing that Katie Couric question to her during the campaign about what she reads.

Palin mocked herself -- and the reporters -- all in the spirit of the evening, which called for heavy doses of self-deprecating humor and gentle barbs: "It's good to be here though, really, in front of this audience of leading journalists and intellectuals, or as I like to call it, a death panel."

Palin shared the bill at the black-tie dinner of the 124-year old club with Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.). She was joined by her husband, Todd Palin, and her parents.

Palin -- a potential 2012 presidential candidate -- is touring the nation promoting her memoir, Going Rogue: An American Life. Frank, the chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, just published a biography titled Barney Frank: The Story of America's Only Left-Handed, Gay, Jewish Congressman.

At the reception, Palin mingled and posed for pictures. She told me, when I asked, that her purse was made from otter. Todd Palin explained to me his cummerbund was based on the Big Dipper and North Star in the Alaskan flag.

Palin's speech was loaded with zingers -- aimed at her and the journalists. Palin, John McCain's running mate, had some interesting help in crafting her speech, enlisting Eric Schnure, a former speechwriter for former Vice President Al Gore.

Other good Palin lines:

• She almost had another title for her book. "Somebody suggested that I go with How to Look Like a Million Bucks for Only $150,000. Todd liked The Audacity of North Slope. I considered not having a title at all. I said it before, but some of the Beltway Boys just don't get it: that you don't need a title to make an impact." That was a dig at critics who slammed her for quitting as Alaska governor.

• Her book did not have an index, so she made one up: "So under A, we have Alaska, media not understanding, pages 1 through 432. Under B. Biased media; pages 1 though 432. And under C, conservative media, got to see acknowledgments for that."

• After her book came out, a cadre of former McCain staffers trashed Palin. Without using his name, she slammed Steve Schmidt, McCain's bald campaign manager. "Normally the Democrat speaker would deliver a speech after me. But instead, I hear the McCain campaign staff asked if they could use that time for a rebuttal. . . . Suffice it to say, that if ever I need a bald campaign manager, it appears all that I am left with is James Carville."

• On Vice President Biden: "I can't help think of what might have been. I can be the vice president overseeing the signing of bail-out checks and Joe Biden could be on the road selling his new book, Going Rogaine."

• Before Frank spoke, the Gridiron chorus sang a song about Frank to the tune of "We Three Kings." Retorted Frank, "I'm very flattered to be the second Jew to have that tune dedicated to." (2 images)

As long as she and The People relate to each other, and the Elites hate her, why not support her instead of one more Bubba?

I'm not supporting another Bubba,period. If that's my only choice,I won't vote or will do another write-in vote.

Take your beauty queen and shove it. She and the rest of you Bushbot traitors and no different that Obama. Trashing loyal Americans to whoreship for a party over principles.

You have serious problems with attractive women,don't you? You can't make a post about Palin without writing "beauty queen" in it somewhere. Here is a hint for you. Being attractive and female no more disqualifies a candidate for president than being unattractive and male does qualifify a candidate.

Maybe you would prefer Lady Lindsey Graham as a candidate?

Yes, no substance to her beliefs. She is disqualifies because she supports everyone but Americans.

Yeah,I think it is. You just use her VP stands as an excuse. There is no way you can possibly be stupid enough to think or expect a VP candidate to state ANY positions in public that disagree with those of the top of the ticket.

The fact that you can't write her name without adding the words "beauty queen" is the dead giveaway.

You have no freaking idea what her beliefs are on this issue. All you know is what she said while following the script as a VP candidate.

On top of that,her being the Governor of Alaska at the time and having lived in Alaska her whole life made her the only governor with no illegal alien problem. I can guarantee you that there are no illegals camped out in gullies in Alaska or hanging around outside building supply stores waiting to pick up tax free jobs.

Now that she has traveled around the rest of the states during the campaign trip and now the book tour,I suspect she has a MUCH better understanding of the issue than she had before. Not that either one of us know for sure because as far as I know,she hasn't said one word about it either way since the campaign ended.

If it were JUST about illegal aliens and not her appearance and gender,you would be willing to wait until she stood on her own feet and made her own statements on illegal aliens before you started jumping down her throat.

Who knows,once she does I may join you in slamming her? Being pro-amnesty is a deal-breaker for me,too. I'm just willing to wait until I see and hear her say she is pro-amnesty now that she is on her own before I pass judgment. Until that time,she remains the sole acceptable potential candidate for 2012.

Palin "inspires" nothing.

I suppose the millions who've driven hundreds on miles to see her at crowded venues, her million books sold and counting in two weeks, and all who voted for the slimy McStain JUST to give Palin a shot at the Federal level represents "no inspiration" in your Book of Dead.

Here's something I KNOW you've NEVER considered; The reptilian CFR-McStain people chose Palin because they thought she'd fall flat on her face and embarrass "the conservative base," Christians, and Reaganites. Just the opposite occurred.

The Plan was that McStain was a patsy and would NOT win. DUH. It's called The Fix (see 1992 for precedence.) Funny thing ALMOST happened; He almost won BECAUSE OF Palin.

While you're sulking and hoping to exhume Eisenhower and his Operation Wetback.

NOT happening.

OPTION "A" is not available. Promising a fictional or virtual undefined "path" is just savvy politics. When you quote Palin on some specifics, THEN take of "treason." Until then, bitch and moan about 0bama (unless in your opinion he's NOT worth referring to as a "f***ing traitor.")
