SARAH PALIN BOOK SIGNING – Interviews with Supporters
April 22nd, 2010PLEASE HELP US SHARE THIS VIDEO. On November 20, 2009, Sarah Palin visited Columbus, OH as part of her book signing tour for “Going Rogue.” When her supporters were asked broad questions about why they thought she should be president, the responses were vague: She’s “real.” She’ll “stick up for America.” THERE ARE UNINFORMED OBAMA SUPPORTERS, TOO It has been said in comments that we would find similarly talking point-driven, substance-less supporters at an Obama rally, and we agree. But no politician has emerged on the national stage as undefined and unqualified as Sarah Palin, and her public persona–which is anti-intellectual by definition–discourages substance. Instead, we get winking. One could hardly imagine her giving a complex speech about race in America, or speaking eloquently about our country’s relations with Islam. Not just because she couldn’t write such a speech (Obama has speech-writers, of course) but because she wouldn’t–such necessarily academic discussion is antithetical to the persona she’s created for herself and that her supporters have come to love. CHERRY-PICKING As for accusations of cherry picking, which are commonly thrown at interview-based videos, it simply isn’t what we did. We interviewed only a few more people than ended up in the video, not hundreds, and what was cut was done for time purposes. The people were selected at random–some offered to be interviewed–and we were only there for about 90 mins (it gets dark early and fast in Ohio …

She lives across the street from Alaska? You can drill for gas? Really?? I am so ashamed that these people are products of our education system.

That was refreshing!

@Soxfan1452 I doubt many of them went to a public school. Judging by how they dress, it’s likely that they were homeschooled.

God help the USA…these people are too fucking stupid to be allowed to breed.

@beaumiller81 I’m surprised that they can read. Or do they read? Does Sarah Palin’s book have a lot of pictures in it?
April 22nd, 2010 at 6:52 am
Shes just a big idiot that will never get into office again just like all the people on the video they just dont have a clue.
April 22nd, 2010 at 6:57 am
@grayy they’re not talking about natural gas.

@FederalReserveMan You mean the Reagen who had deficits in every year of his administration?
April 22nd, 2010 at 12:40 pm
@darekyle1 but the difference is that Obama supporters don’t want to turn back the clock and make America into their ” 50′s inspired family values” society where women and minorities were treated even more like second class citizens than they are today. Whay are these people so afraid?

@OverRuledAgain How come all you “contards” can do when someone points out the obvious studpidity of SP and her mindless followers, is name call. Ooo that shows great intelligence. I am not a conservative or liberal, but when I hear and see blind, ignorant dogma, I call it out. LIke now.
April 22nd, 2010 at 1:00 pm
@FederalReserveMan What rights has he taken away. You can’t even name one you are just regurgitating Glenn Beck speak. Now there is a true moron, uh , I mean American. Think for yourself, if you can.
April 22nd, 2010 at 1:03 pm
@scarface82us Yeah, be careful when you use “Fox” and news together. I think that is a horrble insult to the word news.
April 22nd, 2010 at 1:54 pm
@moullineaux What the duck does “contards” mean? “Name call”? You must be also talking about yourself. By the way, do not lie because I know you are a either a democrap or a libtard. Did you even try to see and hear from those who voted and worshiped Obama? You democraps are hypocrites so be proud of it!

April 22nd, 2010 at 4:00 pm
get rid of all the spending…i would love to give these people a country where they pay absolutely no taxes, but have to hire private security, private fire rescue services, private defense contractors, private teachers, private mail couriers, private everything, but they get to keep every last dime they earn. we may have differences over the role of government and its level of involvement in our lives, but the extremes are where the idiots hang out…

It’s so funny when dumb blondes throw out big words that they don’t know and think they look smart (and I’m not sexist). Plus the guy in the steelers jacket is completely wasted.
