So...Sarah Palin goes to a little chit-chat at the Teabagger Convention and gets busted using notes written on her own palm during the interview. Big deal, right?
Actually, it is a kinda, sorta big deal because my friends- this woman came just a few million votes short of being next in line for the Most Important Job in the Whole Freaking World and- surprise!- she's a goddamned idiot.
Now hoooold on a bit there, cowboy. Isn't that a bit too harsh? Am I being just a tad too judgmental calling Palin an "idiot" because of this little stunt? After all, Barack Obama is Mr. Teleprompter, right? What's wrong with Sarah using a couple notes of her own?
Here's what's wrong with it: The notes are clearly written for a complete BONEHEAD. Take a look at what Sarah Palin (a) thought was really important to remember and (b) had to take the time to WRITE ON HER HAND because she was worried about forgetting them:
Energy
Budget Cuts
Tax
Lift America's Spirits
Now do me a favor, friends. Close your eyes. And try to remember the words you just read. Go ahead. I'll wait.
Did you remember them? Or did you feel the urge to put Bic-to-palm and jot 'em down in case you forgot? I mean, honestly, if you're going to a TEABAGGER convention and you can't remember to mention Tax Cuts you are.....
....wait for it....
....a God. Damned. Idiot.
