1. Good find!

I knew there were images of her with someone else holding up her umbrella. Thanks for finding that one!

Palin is such a putz.

[babylonsister]

2. I think that was instigated here, but who knows?

Obama breaches Marine umbrella protocol

It's a buncha horse patootie.

[Cha]

16. The Marines know Pres Obama would do anything for them..

President Obama checks to see if he still needs the umbrella held by a U.S. Marine during a joint news conference with Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan in the Rose Garden of the White House, May 16

36. Obama isn't afraid of the rain, but the Wicked Wacko of Wasilla should be:

[Cha]

37. Good Point, fresh! Nice pic!

[freshwest]

40. Whoa! Did you notice, Obama's helping hold the Marine's arm up?

And if they'd seen the video, posted here by a member, when he asked them to protect the PM's dress coat, he mentioned that having the Marines standing near them would make them look good - not the Marines, he and the PM! That was praise.

The GOP still hasn't gotten over losing 2 elections to Obama. Big whiney crybaby boo hoo!!

[Cha]

41. Yes I did notice.. I said on one of the times I posted this pic..

that Pres Obama was holding up the Marine who was holding his umbrella!

Umbrella Umbrage.. brought to you by Guns Over People.

Those that Can't.. attack others for doing their jobs.

3. How do they continue to find work!?!

Oh right, plutocracy. They must keep her tethered somewhere so she doesn't constantly walk out into the street.

[marmar]

4. Proof that Twitter is overrun with morons.

[Art_from_Ark]

19. Probably Tricky Dick was hoping Ike would get pneumonia so he could take over.

What a bunch of old fossils the GOP are. Who gives a $#!*

[Art_from_Ark]

23. I wonder if that first picture was taken

before or after September 23, 1955, when Ike had his first attack?

[one_voice]

12. Wow--they scrub comments...

immediately. Guess they didn't like that I called her a twit. Oh well...

[Rex]

13. They need to scrub and erase to keep their braindead followers

hard to keep them in denial if they see obvious contradictions.

[landolfi]

14. They scrub them quickly, too

My telling her she was dumber than a bag of hammers and needed to shut up because she was an ignorant windbag only lasted 8 minutes. I also notice there are a lot of posts defending her that have references to nonexistent "scrubbed" ones. What a piece of shit she is.

[HughBeaumont]

15. Palin is America's Embarrassing Aunt.

[spanone]

18. i fart in her general direction

[Zoeisright]

I will NEVER forgive Gramps McIdiot for inflicting her on the American public.

26. "Mrs. Palin, most Americans aren't lying carpetbaggers...

traveling around on huge buses on a book signing tour, where you left people standing out in the rain without getting their book signed because you couldn't be bothered."

If you want people to think you're one of them, you're going to have to try harder because no one believes anything that comes out of your mouth.

By the way, YOUR FIFTEEN MINUTES ARE UP! So Shut. The. Hell. Up. And. Disappear. Forever. America REJECTED you, you aren't needed here and neither are your snarky comments.

[Warren DeMontague]

27. As opposed to, say, holding a job, Sarah?

[pinboy3niner]

28. Palin hoist on her own petard again

[WinkyDink]

29. Chutzpah.

[pinboy3niner]

30. Do you mean "Choot-spa"?

[ohheckyeah]

35. OMG.....

[struggle4progress]

31. Mrs. Palin, most Americans dislike elected officials who resign

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

32. Can this man even scratch his ass or fart without this drooling imbecile having to comment on it? I

know. I know. It was rhetorical.

[CBGLuthier]

33. Not to mention, most people are NOT president of the USA

I don't want my president holding a fucking umbrella just to make some stupid assholes happy.

[winter is coming]

38. Or, in a pinch, they use a magazine or newspaper, but she wouldn't have had that experience. n/t

[HiPointDem]

39. nobody gives a shit what the queen of reality tv thinks.
