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."

Riiiight. Obama, Reid and Pelosi are really "running ducking and hiding" these days. Hiding in the White House and behind filibuster-proof majorities in both houses of Congress. Would that I could "hide" in so cowardly a way (snort). In Sarah Palin's new book, she says when she first laid eyes on her future husband, she said out loud, 'Thank you, God,' which is the same thing the Democrats said when they first laid eyes on Sarah Palin. The book costs $24.99, but it has a $5,000 jacket."
What's the difference between Sarah Palin's mouth and other parts of her body? Only some of the things that don't come out of her mouth are retarded.
Who's got a chance to beat 0bama in 2012? I welcome ANY sane idea, MM. GOT ONE?? Palin and Obama are the same path. Americans last in their own country. True supporting Americans for a "change".
I've got it bookmarked and I'll continue to throw it in the vile POS's face every chance I get.
What's the difference between Racism_Boot's mouth and anal pore? There isn't any, they both spew gas and feces.
Notice how the moron never addresses the question. Libtards ooze feces!

LOL - they're not?? At least Hussein has Robert Gibbs' dress to run under (or that dress-tent of Manchelle's.) Pelosi is a deer in the headlights scared, and Mr. "Slavery," Reid is a paranoid nut getting crushed in the polls. Hiding in the White House and behind filibuster-proof majorities in both houses of Congress. Both Dem Houses are ticking time-bombs. They're huge losers in 2010 AND 2012. In Sarah Palin's new book, she says when she first laid eyes on her future husband, she said out loud, 'Thank you, God,' which is the same thing the Democrats said when they first laid eyes on Sarah Palin. We LOVE that you actually believe your own delusions and anti-hype. 0bama is trending into the toilet (along with the Dems); Palin is trending BIG.
Hey Keith - either you forgot your sarcasm tag, OR you're Alternative Universe material. They are the polar ANTITHESIS of one another. Do you have an actual solution or know OF a politician with a solution? JUST ONE WILL DO.
Your variations of towel-snapping his azz with those original comments are hilarious.
Come on Keith. If you take Palin out of the equation, what's A solution? Political option? Candidate? Fetal position? Pick one.
If you take Palin out of the equation, what's A solution? Political option? Candidate? Fetal position? Pick one. There were options such as Paul, Tancredo and Baldwin. But hey, those that supported Americans were "weirdos" put forth by the GOP true believers. I will not ever support another traitor including Palin. The only viable solution left is Civil War.
Round up your troops and declare war, Stonewall! This I've got to see!
What's the difference between Racism_Boot's mouth and anal pore? There isn't any, they both spew gas and feces.
Do you have an actual solution or know OF a politician with a solution? So what position does Palin differ from Obama? Globalism? no Illegals? no War in Iraq? no Bailouts? no Outsourcing? no Jobs for Americans first? no "free trade"? no Maybe one prefers doggie style over missionary when fucking over Americans.
The proper characterization, yes. They attempt to hide what they really are, but eventually the feces seeps out. "Progressive" is nothing but a code word for "communist",and there is nothing the least bit liberal about communists or communism.
I haven't seen anybody terrify the left (INCLUDING the RINO's) like she does since Barry Goldwater ran for president. I honestly think she scares them more than Barry did.
There were options such as Paul, How many times has Ron Paul got to pull 3% of the votes before you and the others finally accept that no matter how good his positions are,he has all the charisma of sour milk and will NEVER get elected? Tancredo and Baldwin. Didn't Tancredo back off on his stance on illegals last time? As for Baldwin,that ain't going to happen,period. But hey, those that supported Americans were "weirdos" put forth by the GOP true believers. I will not ever support another traitor including Palin. You have no more idea of what she is than I do. You hate her because of what she isn't. Namely Ron Paul. You and the others are seriously pissed because she is getting the attention Paul could never manage to get. The only viable solution left is Civil War. Maybe.
LOL!! She certainly does scare the crap out of the politically liberal idiots. I don't believe their puppet leader, with the funny ears, is going to be able to weather the sh!t storm of ridicule that is about to be heaped upon him and his owners without succumbing to a demonstrable fit of insanity. This is certainly what the puppet’s minions are clearly so afraid of. They are scared stupid their political idols will cause them extreme shame and leave no doubt, with their peers, of their deficient moral worth to human society for allowing themselves to be duped by criminal scum.
Lottery ticket candidates?? Stop it. Paul never had the balls to run as an Independent, Tancredo though principled knew not the meaning of the word "finesse," and Baldwin is a nobody. I will not ever support another traitor including Palin. The only viable solution left is Civil War. Cut the "traitor" drama queen garbage; Palin is a patriot who CLEARLY loves America and it's core principles. She's plays the game as straight as any politician of her stature ever has in a long time, scares both Party Elites to death, and importantly is NOT a CFR-controlled puppet Insider. 2012 is our Last Stand. She is going to be the Republic's LAST chance to get this runaway train wreck back on track or we are dead. If not, Option "B" may be the only solution, but until then it's going to be Sarah Palin.
Lol... Geez, we all feel the frustration...but we've STILL got a shot at missing the iceberg.
Mental Midget must be riding it. He has all the symptoms of brain freeze.
What's the difference between Racism_Boot's mouth and anal pore? There isn't any, they both spew gas and feces.
Ha! EXCELLENT!!!!
Globalism? no Illegals? no War in Iraq? no Bailouts? no Outsourcing? no Jobs for Americans first? no "free trade"? no Oh....maybe their CHURCHES differ....maybe one is a Marxist, the other NOT...one HATES America, the other LOVES it....One's a thief of America's wealth, the other isn't....One belittles and derides America, the other encourages and inspires...One believes in self-sustaining energy, the other believes in crippling America's energy sources...one believes in capitalism, the other communism...one lies, the other tells the truth. One is a sworn enemy of the Republic, the other....well...maybe you get the idea. Bush I started the NWO and outsourcing, Bubba NAFTA and socialism and hijacking the courts, Bush II the war and tsunami of Illegals, and you expect Palin to suddenly wave a magic wand on Day One? Palin's vision is for the right direction; If you want Perfect, wait a bit longer - Jesus Christ is coming back.
Is Ron Paul still alive? There must be at lesat one Ron Paul story a week that could be posted.
----------------------------------------------------------- At the top of that berg with a thousand rounds, a megaphone, and 8x10 glossy of Rambo.
I honestly think she scares them more than Barry did. Yep... And shouldn't it be construed as an EXCELLENT sign? 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?
Yea, Jesus will save us with Palin. Palin "inspires" nothing. Not one peep from her about helping Americans. Anyone that runs with La Raza McCain, give an interview to La Raza Univision and promises a "path to citizenship" to criminals is a fucking traitor. She's out there selling books to useful idiots.
Yea, supporting Americans is a "lottery ticket". No wonder the Republic is falling.
You think it's all a beauty contest, eh? NO, I hate her because she's a traitor that puts globalists, illegals and everyone else before Americans. "You and the others are seriously pissed because she is getting the attention Paul could never manage to get." Saving America is not a Junior HS prom queen contest.
Are you fucking blind? http://blogs.chron.com/immigration/archives/2008/10/post_172.html Palin: impossible to deport all illegal immigrants Palin When Sen. John McCain announced Sarah Palin as his running mate we wondered aloud about the Alaskan governor's immigration positions. Now, after the Republican vice presidential nominee's interview this week with Univision anchor Jorge Ramos, the picture is a bit clearer. Palin doesn't favor deporting all illegal immigrants. But she's not for amnesty -- just partial amnesty. Not sure how that would work. Oh, and her grasp of Spanish is very, very limited. Here's an excerpt from the interview: RAMOS: Governor, let me ask you about immigration. How many undocumented immigrants are there in Alaska? PALIN: I don't know, I don't know. That's a good question. RAMOS: As governor, how do you deal with them? Do you think they all should be deported? PALIN: There is no way that in the US we would roundup every illegal immigrant -- there are about 12 million of the illegal immigrants -- not only economically is that just an impossibility but that's not a humane way anyway to deal with the issue that we face with illegal immigration. RAMOS: Do you then favor an amnesty for the 12 or 13 million undocumented immigrants? PALIN: No, I do not. I do not. Not total amnesty. You know, people have got to follow the rules. They've got to follow the bar, and we have got to make sure that there is equal opportunity and those who are here legally should be first in line for services being provided and those opportunities that this great country provides. RAMOS: To clarify, so you support a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants? PALIN: I do because I understand why people would want to be in America. To seek the safety and prosperity, the opportunities, the health that is here. It is so important that yes, people follow the rules so that people can be treated equally and fairly in this country. RAMOS: And the last question would be about politics. You only have two more weeks left... PALIN: Yes RAMOS: What is your strategy? How are you planning to win the Latino vote? PALIN: I will tell you, I wish that there were more hours in the day so that we can get out there and to more of the communities with such the strong Latino vote that is out there and really tell them that we desire to work for them. We are asking them to hire us and let us work for them. RAMOS: Thank you so much. It would be impossible to ask you to say a few words in Spanish, right? PALIN: Oh my good-well, I don't want to embarrass myself, but ... but gracias and I do thank you so much for this opportunity. I appreciate it.
mumbling moron is not what he pretends to be. "He" is a total fraud, whose entire purpose is to tarnish all of us opponents of the current invasion of illegal aliens. He is nothing but a liar and a fraud, who is working for illegal aliens and their supporters.
Esse Quam Videri.
He is nothing but a liar and a fraud, who is working for illegal aliens and their supporters. Liar. I've done more than 80 protests against illegal immigration which I documented on Liberty Post. While you have spent the last 8 years bending over for Jorge and McCain. You just another Bushbot asshole who will trash anyone that puts Americans first. In fact, when LP is back up I'll post some of your comments supporting Bush and his "hard workers". Then we'll see who's telling the truth.
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight "mumbling moron is not what he pretends to be. "He" is a total fraud, whose entire purpose is to tarnish all of us opponents of the current invasion of illegal aliens. He is nothing but a liar and a fraud, who is working for illegal aliens and their supporters."

He is nothing but a liar and a fraud, who is working for illegal aliens and their supporters." That's all you Bushbots got left. Lies. Even attack Americans who did protests, the Minutemen and others all to worship Bush. It's no wonder we have Obama. It's what you dirtbags deserve.
What's the matter you simpering pu$$y? Don't you like being treated like you treat everyone else a$$wipe? Too F ing bad. "mumbling moron is not what he pretends to be.

Don't you like being treated like you treat everyone else a$$wipe? You're an asshole. Always was and always will be. Just like the rest of the Bushbots. I point out Palin is a fraud and traitor and you response with lies. Take your beauty queen and shove it. She and the rest of you Bushbot traitors and no different that Obama. Trashing loyal Americans to whoreship for a party over principles.
LOL! "What's the matter you simpering pu$$y? Don't you like being treated like you treat everyone else a$$wipe? Too F ing bad." "mumbling moron is not what he pretends to be.

Don't you like being treated like you treat everyone else a$$wipe? See, that's all you bushbots have. No debate, no facts, just "simpering pu$$y". That's all you've got to defend Palin.
www.diggersrealm.com/mt/archives/002985.html Sarah Palin Is Pro Amnesty For Illegal Aliens - Univision Interview By Digger Sarah Palin finally came out and made her stance on illegal immigration clear. She is pro amnesty for illegal aliens. In an interview to Univision she stated unequivocally that she is for a pathway to citizenship. In the same interview she says she is against amnesty for illegal aliens. Have your cake and eat it to, I think that is called. Back on the same day that John McCain chose Sarah Palin as his vice-presidential candidate I started investigating Palin's past on illegal immigration. I invited others to send in anything they found. There was nothing on the record. Many did write in and said that Laura Ingraham said that one time she was talking to Palin and she said she was against amnesty. That was the only statement anywhere that could be found. Now we know that she is against amnesty, all the while she is for it with a "pathway to citizenship". You see this is what is wrong with these people. They think they can be on both sides of the issue at once and that simply isn't possible. You are either against amnesty or you are not. If you are for a pathway to citizenship for those who have illegally entered our country then you are pro-amnesty as you have virtually absolved them of all of their illegality. People have bashed me for questioning "the Palin". They wrote in to say that obviously she is against illegal immigration. This was all wishful thinking and like so many other issues that the politicians have avoided, until they take a clear stance don't assume anything (and even then, if they're only saying it look at their record). Sarah Palin is in lock-step with John McCain when it comes to amnesty for illegal aliens. Her answers are almost indistinguishable from McCain's, Obama's or even the most pro-illegal alien congressman in the house, Luis Gutierrez, for that matter. Read it and weep. Univision Univision: Governor, let me ask you about immigration. How many undocumented immigrants are there in Alaska? Sarah Palin: I don't know, I don't know. That's a good question. Univision: As governor, how do you deal with them? Do you think they all should be deported? Sarah Palin: There is no way that in the US we would roundup every illegal immigrant - there are about 12 million of the illegal immigrants - not only economically is that just an impossibility but that's not a humane way anyway to deal with the issue that we face with illegal immigration. Univision: Do you then favor an amnesty for the 12 or 13 million undocumented immigrants? Sarah Palin: No, I do not. I do not. Not total amnesty. You know, people have got to follow the rules. They've got to follow the bar, and we have got to make sure that there is equal opportunity and those who are here legally should be first in line for services being provided and those opportunities that this great country provides. Univision: To clarify, so you support a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants? Sarah Palin: I do because I understand why people would want to be in America. To seek the safety and prosperity, the opportunities, the health that is here. It is so important that yes, people follow the rules so that people can be treated equally and fairly in this country. ... Univision: What is your strategy? How are you planning to win the latino vote? Sarah Palin: I will tell you, I wish that there were more hours in the day so that we can get out there and to more of the communities with such the strong Latino vote that is out there and really tell them that we desire to work for them. We are asking them to hire us and let us work for them. Sickening we can't find a real leader in this country who cares about Americans first.
