Palin to Couric in explaining her quote that she’s “been listening to Joe Biden’s speeches

[mscuedawg]

...since I was in 2nd grade.”

MSNBC just showed Katie Couric asking Palin if she thought it was dangerous to say that when her running mate is 72 years old.

Palin’s response was “Oh, no, I just meant that he’s very experienced and has been speaking since 1972…” (yeahhh, thats the ticket!)

Yet when she made that comment, the crowd went wild.

What came to my mind…

Obama: “Lipstick on a pig ... its still a pig” …and the crowd went wild...

But what did the GOP say...Obama is SEXIST!!!

:banghead:

1. "scuse the dupe...just saw it..

[KansDem]

2. Biden should come back with...

"...been listening to Joe Biden’s speeches since I was in 2nd grade.”

Biden: "Good! A teen who listened!"

[TheDoorbellRang]

3. LOL!

:rofl:

[ShortnFiery]

4. ...

Arrg! ... :rofl:

[blondeatlast]

5. Love it! That alone makes her suspect! nt

[SIMPLYB1980]

9. Perfection!

:toast:

[LiberalFighter]

10. That would probably go over the heads of most listeners.

They wouldn't realize that most 2nd graders are about 10 years old.

[medicswife]

11. Uhhhh.....most 2nd graders are 7 to 8 years old. lol nt

[11 Bravo]

12. Ummm, most second graders are 7 or 8.

[Madam Mossfern]

13. Actually 7 or 8

kindergarten - 5 years old
First grade - 6 years old
Second grade - 7 years old

Give a year for birth date cutoffs

[LiberalFighter]

14. My mistake they shouldn't be more than 9 years old mostly 8

[BrklynLiberal]

21. Perfect!

:rofl:

[Submariner]

6. Palin probably never heard the word Biden until a month ago

She's a serial liar. I look forward to seeing if Alaskans kick her butt out of office when her term is up.

[kath]

17. Given that she doesn't know of any Supreme Court decisions other than Roe v Wade,

I highly doubt that she knows the name of any current or recent Senators, except those from Alaska and those running for Pres.

[LisaM]

23. Exactly

Why doesn't someone ask her for highlights?

[RichGirl]

7. If she's been listening to Biden since the second grade....

...why hasn't she learned anything.

[VolcanoJen]

8. Second grade? Did she pay any attention in, say, Eleventh Grade?

That's when most American teenagers learn about SUPREME COURT CASES.

I mean, Governor Klondike Bar couldn't even come up with Bush v. Gore, fer chrissakes. }(

[ellacott]

15. Exactly

Someone should ask her why she was still in the 2nd grade at 9yrs. old. She listened to Biden but couldn't know any Supreme Court cases besides Roe v Wade?

[mscuedawg]

16. That was a tacky period of time for Palin to choose...IMO

Biden's wife and daughter were killed in 1971....

[whistler162]

18. Actually they died December 1972.

and me thinks Gov. Palin is a liar.

[mscuedawg]

19. My bad...depending on my memory... eom

[kath]

20. And BIden was probably sworn in at the same time as the rest of the Senate - Jan 1973,

Took the oath of office at his sons' bedside. The new House and Senate are usually sworn in in early January after the election the previous November.

SO - no Joe in the Senate until 1973.

Palin lies about EVERYTHING.

[qanda]

22. How exactly would she have heard any speeches from Biden in 1972?

Or is this just another one of her lies? I'd really like to know if any of Biden's speeches were available on tv or radio in 1972.

[Terran]

24. Soooo, her subtext is...

"Don't vote for the old guy." Way to go Sarah.

[lolamio]

25. She's so full of shit...

I was born in 1964, but unlike Caribou Barbie, my earliest political memories are of the 1972 election and then after that, watching the Watergate hearings with my grandfather. I grew up in a very political household, and really didn't even become aware of Biden until the eighties. This woman is a freaking bold faced liar.

But... it sure is fun to hear he keep babbling on and on about this stuff. She is the gift that keeps on giving!

[firedupdem]

26. She is such a dumb ass when she's not reading her speeches..

She is never ever confident sounding unless she's behind a podium reading a hate filled message. That is why the debate is 2 minute rants and then 30 second responses...this should be interesting.

[GalleryGod]

27. Smarmy,Punk, Snowbilly

That about covers it,Eh?
:patriot: :rofl: :popcorn: :patriot:

[Spider Jerusalem]

28. You totally missed the meat of what Palin was saying there.

She was unwittingly making the case for Barack Obama with her 'new ideas versus experience' frame; who's at the top of the respective tickets, after all? Hint: it's not Palin and Biden.
