Personally I think that fourth-tier radio personality and former high school golf team captain John Ziegler is being a bit hard on Sarah Palin in this interview.
We know that Sarah Palin was a major factor in the Republican’s horrific loss to Barack Obama, but to continually run How Obama Got Elected on the screen while Palin prattles on and on seems kind of harsh.
Must be that gotcha journalism I keep hearing about.

Heh, he said hard on.
Yes, there’s plenty of
blamecredit to go around forMcSame’s lossObama’s victory. While Palin should get a large share, she’s hardly the biggest reason. (I think that distinction goes to Chimpy W. Shrub, personally…)Why did I just click on that video? That voice. That mangled syntax. It just makes my ears bleed all over again.
Well, I followed the links to Nate’s interview with Ziegler where he ends with a hearty “go fuck yourself.”
Clearly, that’s the Pukes default position when backed into a corner.
New Orleans residents? Go fuck yourselves.
Testify before Congress? Go fuck yourselves.
Middle East peace? Go fuck yourselves.
Respect for Constitution and the law? Go fuck yourselves.
I truly hope Obama’s not serious about “bipartisanship” with these people beause we can pretty much count on being told to go fuck ourselves if they don’t get what they want-and only what they want.
Oh, and Palin? Please keep her front and center, GOP. She’s gonna save the party, yes indeedly-doodly. You betcha!
That’s right Sarah, we should rely on plumbers for our hard news information.
Seems ridiculous that the Governor of Alaska would claim a desire to shrink government, when 26% of Alaskan jobs are Federal, State or Local government jobs. And unemployment in the villages requires safety net expenditures. Imagine what Alaska would be like today without Federal monies or gas and oil taxes. They depend upon taxes and government spending, probably more than any other state.
I can’t tell whether Palin is doing Tina Fey, or if Tina Fey is doing Palin anymore. This is Fey right? Cuz it’s really funny and ridiculous. And the scroll is priceless. Here are some more suggestions for Ziegler’s part II.

I don’t even like to look at the preview screen for that video; those dead, glassy eyes are the stuff of which nightmares are made…
At first I thought that Palin was profoundly ignorant. Now I know that she’s actually just plain stupid:
Palin: Media goes easy on Kennedy
One Gem:
“A class issue.” Perhaps the fact that Palin has none enters into it too.
Nice leather jacket John has on there.
What? Was he hoping for a little post-interview GILF action?
we would have love her if she were Obama’s running mate?
Delusional.
Honey, calling it “the Democrat ticket” won’t get you even a sniff of Obama’s basketball shoes.
Keep it up, Grandma. You are the gift that keeps on sucking. Well, to be fair, if that were the case, you probably wouldn’t have 5 kids.
Dennis, I especially enjoyed the part of that article wherein Myth Alaska states: “…that when she sees some of the coverage of her daughter Bristol especially “the momma grizzly rises up in me.” Please. I can only assume the momma grizzly is rising up in order to get better traction to shove said daughter even further into the spotlight.
And the snotty remark about Katie Couric “not being the center of the universe” at the end of the article — jeez, Sarah, neither are you, honey.
“That voice. That mangled syntax.”
I actually thought this was the most coeherent she’s ever sounded. Apparently, she understands being a poor, picked upon conservative mouth breather. It’s the governin’ stuff she has a hard time with.
Palin admits that she has never seen the interview she did with Katie Couric. Maybe if she watched it, and saw that she came across as incredibly clueless and downright stupid, she might understand why she was criticized. And I thought Katie was totally fair to her. How Katie managed to keep a straight face is beyond me. I would’ve had –you are fucking kidding me– written all over my face.
Geebus, did we ever dodge a bullet? This person a heartbeat away from the preznitcy would’ve been too much. I swear to gawd I’d be on my way to Canada.
Did she show us Trig’s birth certificate? I only watched the part where she starts complaining about ‘unnamed’ internet bloggers (ANDREW SULLIVAN HAS A NAME) still dogging her about his parentage.
Enjoy.
