Gov. Sarah Palin has granted the traditional Thanksgiving pardon to one lucky turkey, but the video that shocked some viewers captured what was happening in the background.
Palin is an idiot of the Bush kind! Like the "Energizer Bunny" she continues to show her stupidity on and on and on and on.... Palin grates on the nerves and is worse than someone dragging their fingernails across a chalkboard! WHEN WILL IT STOP?????????????????????????????????????
Dems really hate real people don't they?
Oh, hate is such a strong word! If I choose not to like her, then so be it!
She's not "real" people. She's a real idiot.
She's not "real" people. She's a real idiot.
RD, I kinda like the word IMBECILE!-oh, a REAL IMBECILE! But I think we are wasting our time on the Palinites. You can lead people to reality, but you can't make them THINK!
Sarah Palin is: Witless in Wasilla
Hey! That sounds like a great title for a new tv show!
Makeitso928, BJs65, Sarah Palin has been a mayor and a governor. These are pretty good accomplishments for someone who is not yet 45 years old.
Xerxes - meh. I suppose if someone bulldozed her way into the job, then perhaps so.
I am still not at all impressed with her.
Do Obama's fans think the hens commit suicide to end up at KFC?
Why are you putting Obama into this equation? I don't think anyone has has mentioned him. You people make no sense most of the time. I hope you know that.
What does George Bush have to do with Sarah Palin?
No they don't think hens commit suicide. But ignorant politicians commit political suicide all the time.
As a "Journalist" Palin should have set herself up better.... the story was supposed to be about "Pardoning a Turkey" and the gaffe is on her and her alone! Out of the corner of her eye, she saw what was going on but was so absorbed in giving the interview that she paid no attention to what the camera was showing! I'll bet she can't walk and chew gum at the same time either!
She was setup for this. She was giving an honest interview. Not a supporter, however, yes she could have looked around to see what was in going on in the background. How many of us know what is happening as we are interviewed. Focus is on giving the interview and the interviewer. When was your last dumb moment(s)?
They asked her if she wanted that in the backdrop! I believe she said it was not a big deal!
Yes, even the camera guy had an idea it might look a little ignorant to stand in front of dying turkeys after pardoning one.. and asked her ... that should have given her a clue. But nope. Clueless Palin strikes again.
It really is a non-story but it is funny.
The radical left is so freaking scared of Sarah, they will go to any extreme to try and publicly downsize her. It has gotten to the point where all intelligent people are laughing at the lefties and waiting for their next exploition. Go ahead, keep her in the news. She's coming to get ya!
Oh, by the way; was reading an article on "How Obama won the election"...........analysis................a lot of stupid people.
Sarah Palin is: The Joke of Juneau
Hey North Dakota.... a lot of stupid people apparently believed the poll .... it's already been shot down as a "push poll" and Zoghby has refused to do it again after another request. You guys can't decide which way you want it, can you? We're either elitists or we're stupid. Pick one because we can't be both.
Oh, you are wrong, you are stupid elitists. Why else would you be so hypocritical and clueless? The Sarah bashing has gone on long enough already! She was a threat and ripped to shreds because of it. All of the stupid blunders Biden made were completely ingnored. And Obama for all his change is just going back to the Clinton administration where a big portion of the economic mess started! I agree the backdrop was not in the best of taste, but the camera person could have gotten a different angle.
Yeah north Dakota, we are sooooo scared of her. Kind of the same way we were all sooo scared of Mr. Straight talk Jon McCain. How'd that work out?
And Crystal, no one had to rip her to shreds, She did a fine job all on her own.
It is one thing to be thought a fool. It's another to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
Crystal,
Do not call other Newsvine users stupid. Treat all your fellow Newsvine users with the respect you'd like for yourself.
The radical left is so freaking scared of Sarah, they will go to any extreme to try and publicly downsize her.
We're not scared of her, we're amused by her because she's a dunce.
As a republican, hell I'm scared of her!!! These are the foooools the republican party wants as our leaders. If this is all we have to run against Obama in 2012 I'll be voting Obama again!!! I refuse to vote for republican MORONS!!! PS: Lets stop talking about Obama and start finding ourselves some strong REPUB candidates with some common scense like Bobby Jindal.
Sarah Palin needs to go away quickly. There has never been, and I hope never will be again, a VP candidate who was less qualified. Her 15 minutes of fame is over, but she is not smart enough to get off the stage.
There are do's and don'ts that keep this world in balance and with Palin, She has more don'ts than do's. Palin is just about the most absent minded person that I've ever seen in politics. If she were ever President, I believe that if she were told to push the green button to release the display of firewoks, she would push the red button to release Nuclear Bombs. She is just where she needs to be, back in Alaska, watching Russia from her window!!!!!
Oh! And standing there in her $100,000.00 clothes, while turkeys are being slaughtered in the background.Duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
guess the dems and their accomoplices in the media are afraid of her future capabilities. They asked her if she was okay with the turkey farm in the background. Did she know they were hacking off the heads of the birds while she talked. She was focused on helping the idiot's in the media with some nice little thanksgiving story. She was being gracious and, wow, didn't realize what was going on behind her. And, if the media, in particular, is so upset about the propriety of it, how bout the reporter and camera person saying "hey gov, not sure you see what's going on here. maybe we coudl change the camera angle." The camera person coudl have moved two feet to the right(WITHOUT ASKING) and none of that woudl have been seen. They WANTED her to look bad. MSNBC face it, you're democrat lackeys. They shoudl have closed the interview saying "live with the governor from one of the the 57th states (yes, said by OBAMA), this is Ms. X reporting"
Ummmmmm Scott, this was an Alaska new crew from an Alaska new station. Not MSNBC. Are you suggesting her own state is out to get her? Maybe the whole world is out to get her. Yeah, i'm sure that is it. And France staged that prank call just because they are scared of her too. Yeah, that must be it.
guess the dems and their accomoplices in the media are afraid of her future capabilities.
And those "Future Capabilities" would be??? Unless they bring back "Laugh In"
That is hilarious!
Some people aren't bothered by watching animals get slaughtered. I grew up on a farm, and I know what happens. I still cannot stand to watch animials get slaughtered. It's not really a spectator sport. I appreciated that I was watching a a news show where I was warned ahead of time to "get the children and the squeamish out of the room before this clip is shown." I agree with Christy Elmasry. We are sick of her, yet it goes on and on and on. Truly, when will it stop???? Please????
Maybe Palin is one of the many people that are tired of everyone's sheltered little lives and think maybe some reality would do them some good.
Did you know she and her husband also run a fishing business and those fish die too? God help her and her kind for feeding us.
Sorry ... they aren't feeding me. I can appreciate the piece of reality regarding what's going on for countless turkeys, etc. in this moment. If I, for one moment, thought that Gov. Palin was actually conscious of what was going on, I wouldn't have been left shaking my head ... once again ... after watching her. She is too much ... way too much.
AK GIRL
Sarah Palin is not an unskilled Politician, she is an Alaskan woman. It must seem odd that a woman can grasp the concept that you must kill an animal to eat it. In Alaska, we like to eat meat which comes from animals which must be killed to eat. . . hum . . . what a concept. Apparently, in the lower 48 this must not be the case. Forgive our media for not sensoring the cycle of life.
JOEBUCK
They think Obama makes the turkeys magically appear in the stores. They lead very sheltered lives you know.
Are any of the rest of you being to see a pattern here regarding the Palin supporters. Reminds me of a movie. let's see, oh yeah
DUMB AND DUMBER!

This is out of control. The farmer and his family are now receiving death threats. This is crazy! People need to leave them alone.
If the farmer and his family are receiving death threats it's because many people in Alaska are offended.
Apparently not everyone in our fair state hold the absurd opinions that you have expressed today.
Hacked any paws off wolves lately?
I guess it's funny that all of the calls are coming from the lower 48 and not Alaska! If your statement was true wouldn't the calls have to be local?
As for you, have you had an opportunity to eat any meat lately? You never mentioned you were a vegetarian; I guess I should assume you are.
In your own words: "This is out of control, The farmer and his family are now receiving death threats. This is crazy. People need to leave them alone."
What's crazy is people from the lower 48 spending money on long distance calls then hopping on a flight to Juneau and a puddle jumper into Wasilla just to follow up on a threat from where? Ohio.
Lots-O-Luck getting that stinker to fly.
What a TOOL!
Do anybody here realize the point of advertising??? You rant and rave about the killing of a turkey, but you remembered Palin. She is still making news and people are still talking about her. The next time she runs for office, people will not be asking, "WHO?"

Excellent point AC. She really isn't worth mentioning, but when someone who aspires to the second highest office in the land exudes stupidity I just can't help myself.
I'm not radical and I am not to the left; I am actually very conservative! I am also in no way "scared" of the likes of Palin....And I am proud to say that I am very happy to have been one of the millions of voters who got it right and sent her packing back to Alaska!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Palin will slip back to nothingness in or out of the news on the national front after Obama is sworn in.
As a woman, intelligent, college educated and working in the Criminal Justice field, I was insulted that McCain could pick a plastic doll for his running mate! If she is the so called "new face" of the Republican Party, the party will never figure out how to make any kind of a comeback because they will be too busy trying to figure out if you really can see Russia from her house!
Your only retort is to call one stupid. Not a very good debater are you?
I debate very well when I have someone worthy to debate with. I can't lie and say Palin seems intelligent....and I am not the only one! I call it like I see it!
Have a nice day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THATS FUNNY...you have a nice day as well.
Amazing people think Palin is uninteligent because she is attractive... Maybe is she had cankles like Hillary, with a wide behind along with a bitter outlook that hated white men and support abortion.....media and dems would like her.
I don't think she's stupid because she's (allegedly) attractive. I think she's stupid because she does incredibly stupid things.
It's like Al Bundy when a fat lady at the store asked him if the shoes made her look fat and he said "No! Your fat makes you look fat!" People think Palin is ignorant because she gives them so many reasons to think it.
It's like Al Bundy when a fat lady at the store asked him if the shoes made her look fat and he said "No! Your fat makes you look fat!"
I love this ... never heard it before ... yes, reality does sometimes bite. Ouch!
I lived on a farm for years..... know all about "where the meat" comes from! Maybe they should run another clip with her in the helicopter shooting at wolves...... or maybe skinning a bear! The point is that she is not the VP!
You sound like a very angry person; I feel sorry for you. Making hollow statements behind a keyboard doesn't make them accurate. How about you put some substance behind your hatred and tell us 5 things that Sarah Palin has done to offend you. Please, no more "The point is she isn't VP" what does that mean? People make mistakes. Do you remember the last time Joe Biden ran for office and was caught stealing others speeches? I find that very offensive that the man who is a "heart beat away from being the president" is stealing someone elses thoughts and claiming them for his own. What else would he steal? Now please give me 5 things that Sarah has done to offend you.
I'll take that challenge:
1. I have foriegn policy experience because I can see Russia from my house.
2. Palin in a speech about fully funding IDEA. Where does a lot of that earmark money end up anyway? […] You’ve heard about some of these pet projects they really don’t make a whole lot of sense and sometimes these dollars go to projects that have little or nothing to do with the public good. Things like fruit fly research in Paris, France. I kid you not.
3. Africa is a continent.
4. The countries that belong to NAFTA are Canada, Mexico and the US.
5. And last but certianly not least Joe The Fake Plumber
I could go on............
shellie,
you should not take a challenge unless you have correct information to debate with--Do a little research on your own and you will find the truth
While wearing her $100,000.00 wardrobe, once again Palin leaves one's mouth open. MSNBC doesn't need to make anyone look bad, Palin can do that all by herself. Oh! and the comment about Oboma and the number of states....at least he knows about where he lives and about Afica. How can you run for such a aigh office and not know what makes up North America and you live there? The dumb gets dumber and the ones who take up for dumbness are dumber. You know the saying," dumb, dumber and dumbest". Which one are you?
People don't stand in front of turkeys being slaughtered and they don't keep making fools of themselves. NO ONE BUT PALIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What's wrong with chopping the heads off turkeys?
They squawk just like Republicans whenever you mention PRESIDENT-elect Obama.
They bleed just like the GOP is bleeding support at the moment.
I can see why Palin is smiling away...looks, smells and sounds pretty darned familiar, you betcha.
I ain't never givin' up bashin' Palin. It's as fun as kicking puppies.
vegans should be cheering. surely the video will convert more to their point of view.
but really, boo hoo!!!! you don't like it, don't watch it!!!!!! more women should have the courage of sarah!!! i eat turkey year long. let's talk about bacon, ham, pork chops!!!!!
millions worldwide shun pork........i say, if god did'nt want us to eat pigs why did he make them taste sssooooo good???? showing the reality of how turkeys come to the table is a good thing....... millions in america live with blinders on when it comes to the realities of life in general
Well said James.
thanx 4 your support , Joebuck
You stand there in your $100,000.00 wardrobe, while you pardon a turkey and others are being slaughtered in the background? MSNBC doesn't have to make anyone look stupid. Palin can do it all by herself!!!! She has done it time and time again and if you had to count her mistakes on your fingers and toes, please borrow some extras from your neighbors. President Elect Oboma has made a few, but the count is only on one hand.
Do you know how much Obama's wardrobe is worth? or how about Joe Biden's? Well of course you don't because they took aim at a female that they were afraid of. Would she have been right for the job, I have know idea because mindless people like yourself want to read about her cloth's or her hunting abilities. I honestly don't know if she is qualified. Are you a subscriber to the national enqurier?
It doesn't matter what their wardrobes are worth because they paid for them themselves! They money did not come out of campaign contributions. HUGE difference.
Just curious, how do you know where the money came from.
Because unlike Palin it wasn't listed as an campaign expense. Since all contributions are legally accounted for as to where the money went and since none to the contributions were listed as having gone for wardrobes then the only logical conclusion one can reach is that they paid for their own clothes. Every dime of contributions on both sides has been independently audited by the government and accounted for, every dime and none of the Democratic contributions went toward clothing for the candidates. If you think otherwise then I invite you to prove it.
Where is the report, I would like to see it. Does it include Joe Biden paying for stolen speeches? Or don't you remember when he was caught using others words for his own when he failed at running for president the last time. Is that on the report as well? Just curious.
You are the one alleging that they paid for their clothes via campaign contributions, it's up to you to prove it. The GOP admitted that they paid for her clothes, but no one has said the same about the Democrats. If you have proof that they did then again, I invite you to show it. Until then we'll have to assume that if the democrats did pay for Obama's or Biden's clothes then the proper authorities would have made that public, just like they did concerning Palin.
As for the public records of where the money all went I suggest you look it up for yourself. You can be certain that the media has and would have reported any irregularities in either accounting.
Okay genius I will look it up for you and report back. You seemed to have skipped over the Joe Biden question. How about an answer on that.
How about asking an on-topic question? This seed is about turkeys and Palin, though granted there's not much difference.
I could care less about any alleged Biden plagiarism. He took a few sentences from a British politician many years ago without giving him proper credit. It was a simple mistake and in no way implies that he's a plagiarist, except in the tiny fevered minds of the right wing conspiracy nuts. That would seem to include you.
Oh and please, if you find something to "back up" your allegations, make sure it's from a credible source. You know, not FOX or Limbaugh or Drudge, but a REAL news source.
You really should go back and read over the responses I have made. I never said their clothing was paid for from campaign donations. I asked a question that I knew the answer to it's called a rhetorical question. I made no allegations genius and seeings how you brought it up what does her clothing have to do with turkeys.
I did not bring up her clothing and your question was not retohrical. Your statement was;
"Just curious, how do you know where the money came from."
That is not rhetorical and is indeed an implication that you think think the money for Biden's and Barack's wardrobe may have come from the DNC, just like Palin's came from the RNC. Now you can try to weasel out of that if you like and I'll be happy to let you since it's off-topic anyway, but calling your allegations a rhetorical question is a flat out lie. You made the implication, but since you don't want to back it up, you're dismissed now.
You obviously don't know how to read so I will just let it be. I asked Rochelle if she knew how much their wardrobes were worth? <<< This implies a question. Goodbye now that I have been dismissed by one as smart as you.
Look son, you implied that the DNC may have paid for Barack and Biden's wardrobe. That's crystal clear to anyone who reads this thread. Then you couldn't provide any evidence at all of that off-topic implication. You screwed up. It happens. Now I'm willing to let you take your spanking like a man and just leave with a little self-respect left. Take it. You'll be a better man for it.
Can't we all just get back to laughing at Sarah Palin?
LOL! I'll second that!
You stand there in your $100,000.00 wardrobe, while you pardon a turkey and others are being slaughtered in the background? MSNBC doesn't have to make anyone look stupid. Palin can do it all by herself!!!! She has done it time and time again and if you had to count her mistakes on your fingers and toes, please borrow some extras from your neighbors. President Elect Oboma has made a few, but the count is only on one hand.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
What you just watched was life... this was a turkey, but how do you think chicken nuggets starts out? or Big Macs? If you live in a city or urban area ask a 3rd grader where milk comes from, you might be surprised of the answer.
Gov. Palin should have been more aware of her surroundings but honestly what you watched was a dose of reality. I was more offended by just how dirty the birds were and I have a right because I raise them too. The bird should never be that dirty, it isn’t healthy for them or you the consumer. If you think that was bad, this was a small farm so see how the butterballs are raised.
I am also offend and embarrassed by how we all behave. Once, the media and the public respected the position a person held if not the person who holds it. The camera person and interviewer should have intervened and change the angle out of respect for their audience and the Governor.
The camera person and interviewer should have intervened and change the angle out of respect for their audience and the Governor.
Like Sarah, her handlers are also clueless buffoons!
I have two words... "poor taste!" I hate that woman even more! She is one heartless you-know-what and she sounds the same everytime she is interviewed. It's the same old words. The nation has OD'd on her. Please.... leave us alone!!!
Once again hollow statements, what are the "same words she keeps speaking" Please list them here for us.... We'll wait... come on you can do it your a big person now you've learned to hate someone.
Do Palin haters really think.....she pardoned them all...and Turkeys just appear in stores with out killing them? Once again this is just a silly attack on Palin by liberals in the media, specifically MSNBC, who hate her and fear her.
Attack? Why do some people see attacks everywhere?
Maybe it's on the news because it's funny to see Palin going on about uncomfortable campaign situations and all the other crazy buzz words she strings together while turkeys are being killed in the back ground by a leering worker.
Do you think just maybe she was making fun of all the people that want to stay in their sheltered little lives and think everything is made from fairy dust.
That woman is a lot smarter than most think she is.
Something to stir up attention and keep her name in the news a little longer.
