Sarah Palin: Hypocrite

Eventually, Palins rabid pack of groupies have to realize she's a total fraud, right? It should be a done deal by now. Her entire story since she burst on the scene has been one long essay in hypocrisy (note-some of these are hypocrisy but some are also just plain lies):

• She first burst on the scene as the over-enthusiastic attack dog whose sole purpose was to constantly gripe about Democrats, yet no one has played the victim card to the extreme like she has,
• Accused Obama of "pailing around with terrorists" while failing to mention any of McCains own nefarious connections,
• Hauls children to every public appearance yet no one is able to acknowledge their existence,
• Enthusiastically supports abstinence and family values while own daughter is a bit of a family value train wreck,
• Claimed her stance was "Thanks but no thanks" in regards to the "Bridge to Nowhere" despite the fact that she campaigned for it as governor,
• Claims to be an honest public servant despite a history of firing and harassing people with whom she has taken issue,
• Is a staunch anti-socialist despite an awfully suspicious profit sharing system from Alaskan oil,
• Has a track record of criticizing "elitists" and thinks herself exempt because of poor grammar despite pulling in six digits for speaking, high fashion tendencies, and, from multiple witness accounts, behaving like a spoiled pampered diva,
• Took a consistent stance against big-government despite Alaska pulling in more federal money than any other state,
• Claimed to have rejected Federal stimulus money despite the fact that it was not 100% true,
• Claims that quitting as governor is a testament to her dedication of serving the people,
• Criticized Hillary Clinton for complaining about media coverage while she herself whines about media coverage,
• Continually criticizes the media for "making stuff up" despite the fact that she, herself, engages in serious revisionism every time she speaks publicly,
• Believes that name-dropping the military at every oppurtunity is the equivalent of support even though she thinks that the USA should invade every country that looks at us funny,
• Also believed that her support for the troops was more relevant than Biden despite the fact that he too had children serving,
• Continually claims that Obama is "in over his head" as President despite the fact that she has never gotten specific on policy, no matter how cushy the interview,
• Turned the health care reform proposal of "end of life counseling" in to "death panels" despite the fact that she herself supported such counseling only a couple years ago.

Although I could go on, I just wanted to set up Palin's most recent exercises in hypocrisy by showing that this has officially become a body of work for her. This is what she does, and criticism on the right is few and far between.

• Palin recently attacked Rahm Emanuel for his of the word "retard" while criticizing liberals speaking up against the Obama administration. Palin was deeply offended as there is some baby with Downs Syndrome in the family. She went to her fucking Facebook page and posted a whole diatribe on how Emanuel should step down or be fired for making this comment. I can not understand how a comment made on facebook can cause such a shit storm over something as inconsequential as this. Facebook? We're talking about.... facebook. My brain hurts from even trying to comprehending this. In the wake of that, Rush Limbaugh went off throwing down the dreaded R-word like it was going out of style. In response, Palin defended his usage of the word. So, when Emanuel (Democrat) uses the word "retarded" behind closed doors it is cause for him to be stoned to death. When a radio host loud mouth uses the word on public radio, it's ok because he was referring to "kooks" and he was only using satire.
  
• Finally, Palin has gone out of her way to be extremely condescending about Obama using a teleprompter. This has been a favorite of Republicans and has been a source of annoyance for a number of Democrats. Here's the real punchline though: teleprompters have been used by presidents for years, including Bush and Reagan. That's what makes it so friggin annoying. But because the annoyance is obvious it only encourages it. Palin herself has used teleprompters. HOW DOES THIS MAKE ANY SENSE?!? Anywho, the criticisms are now even extra RETARDED as Palin was caught with notes written on her hand while giving one of those $100,000 speeches at a Tea Party Convention. This just goes beyond ridiculous.
  

Palin has had a long standing loose relationship with the truth and reality, and yet she is champion of conservatives big and small. At some point, the long list of hypocrisy would have to catch up with her. Unfortunately, in the meantime, Palin will continue to run her filthy mouth at every opportunity with her new found employment at FOX News where she can expect a number of safe interviews and softball questions.

Charismatic and motiviational? No doubt about it!

Deceitful and a soul condemned to hell? You betcha!

To close it all out, here's SNLs take on the Rahm/retard situation. This shit is funny.


"You come after me on facebook? What are your fourteen? Here's a status update: Grow the fuck up! Poke me again, and I will write shit on your wall so obscene your computer will cry. Go back to the tundra, you fucking gimmick!"

Classic. I enjoyed that like no other.
