Palin to Speak in Wisconsin – Get Ready for the Pat Down.
OK Wisconsinites! Alaska blogger Sarah Palin is coming to your state! She’ll address the Wisconsin Right to Life Group.
Tickets for the event at the Wisconsin Exposition Center outside of Milwaukee, which go for $30, appear to still be available.
The restrictions are “bizarre,” according to Democratic Party of Wisconsin Chair Mike Tate.
“You know, for someone who claims to be a rogue and isn’t afraid of what other people think it really is sort of hypocritical to not let the media, the press cover your event,” he told Wisconsin Radio Network.

OK, only the first nine apply to this particular event, but we can imagine it’s only a matter of time before the rest are added. And I wouldn’t rule out the impending pat down and cavity search. You can never be too careful.
Unless they are going to pat everybody down, there definitely WILL be cell phones and recorders smuggled in, ESPECIALLY after the draconian ban.
For a woman who ostensibly wants to woo us all to vote for her, she seems to not trust us as far as she can throw us.
Oooo, I can hardly wait to her what she has to say!
Come on, Badgers! Smuggle in those cell phones with video!
It’s more like the “right to live in a police state.”
Tickets on sale on Craigs List.

I hope some Mudpuppy gets in there, esp. with a smuggled device. Heh. She might has well have just issued a challenge.
I am trying and trying to talk a friend in that area to go !! I even have offered to pay for it! she is well endowed and could get a small video camera in!! She keeps telling me she would throw up in her mouth to have to listen to her!!!!
It doesn´t say no camera in lapel pin. Hehehe. I hope it is like her china gig. Everything was recorded.
That’s just unreasonable and paranoid of her.
If there is a will, believe me there is a way. Have all you mudpuppies gotten your antennas attached to your baseball caps? Video Cams on your lapels?
I guess when you really aren’t important anymore you try and make it look more legit by acting like you are. She’s hurtin’ me….
Ahhh, she’s in my hometown! No strollers? That’s not very family friendly.
Did they mention “no functioning brains” as
well on the list of restricted devices?
Wow, the comments on the cbs site are pretty good. I esp. like this one:
by U_S_Drug_Addict November 6, 2009 2:39 PM EST
ooh nooooo your tire is all flat and juunk.. did i doo that???
Run the Geico commercial and put her face on the voiceover,
now that is going “rogue to nowhere”
She just has to hope that her words are immanently forgettable.
Oh by the way Sarah did you know that there are people who still take shorthand?
In fact most reporters develop their own shorthand. That’s why they all have pads and pens at WH press conferences.
You should watch the news more often. It is so enlightening.

I was thinking infantile and bratty.
And paranoid, also too.
are they doing cavity searches ??? are they bringing in Men in Black
??
Why would someone who wants the world to listen to every word she speaks ban those lucky enough to bask in her glow from recording it? If she really wants to run for office again, she’s going to have to get used to people, oh I don’t know, recording what she says and perhaps asking a question or two.
Dumb dumb s’arah.What can be so secretive about a right for life event.You would think that they would be screaming form the rooftops at all the so called baby killers.It sure does make one wonder what evil they have up there sleeves. S’ararh’s spy pie business must have gone to her empty head. Searching for recording devices…….she is nothing but a wannabe control freak.
You forgot these:
No – functioning brain
No – reason or logic
No – non-vetted questions
No – reading material
No – hope
You forgot “No Pajamas”.
I guess it won’t be too difficult to search and pat down 50 people. That said, this is Wisconsin and they’ll be bringing their beer!
Think Sarah will show?
Queen Hester has a political slogan now:
“All your BASE are belong to us”
Despite Silly Sarah’s best efforts, someone will get in there with a recording device of some sort. She’s a coward who will only speak to friendly media, if she speaks to them at all.
It’s a curious strategy which can only serve to alienate her from all but her most rabid supporters but then again, we are not dealing with a normal person here.
Trini #18 Fox will report attendance of 450,000, Malkin- 2 million
No-hope he he !
Bystander: Is there a chance Palin may not show up? Oh how awesome!
If she bails, there will be hell to pay. And we have front row seats =)
Okay, so far we have her speaking at a antiabortion group, a Christian University, and Correspondence dinner that had Barack speak in 06.
Any guess what’s next to cover her political bases? NRA? women’s group? Energy group? Oil and gas? special needs?
Palin will also be rubbing elbows with the Washington elite………………………………

Surely, in all of the Milwaukee area, there’s a stenographer willing to make herself/himself ill & listen to her tripe for the rest of us. As long as the note taking pad is kept sort of out of sight, it should be ok. Well, until pens, pencils & paper are made illegal too.
total control of the media and the message is one very prominent feature of fascist governments…..
She is such a coward.
Someone who works at the exposition center needs to be very mavericky and install a camera and mic right into the podium.
The church I attend has a built-in camera and mic for weddings that will even zoom in for the wedding ring shot!
My husband’s family lives in Milwaukee…Hmm, I wonder…

———————————
My thought was the same as your’s. I had to count down to # 9 to see if it made the list.
So a ” Right-to-Lifer” with her own young Downs Syndrome child would NOT be welcome at this event. W o W . Way to be ‘ inclusive ‘ $arah. Would it make a difference if they were to write a check to SarahPAC right on the spot..?
BTW.. HINT : A babies diaper would be a GREAT place to hide a recording device. Do you think they will patting down the babies as well. Most hands wouldn’t want to go THERE.
If you don’t have a baby of your own… ask your neighbor to borrow her’s.
So, ya gotta get strip searched to see Sarah. What a freedom lover she is. I am sure her baffoonery will be leaked.
Do other speakers have rules like this? or is it just a Scarah oddity.
What – no guns?
I’m not going if I can’t bring popcorn.
#33 Say No To Palin:
I guess put it this way – if Obama had such restrictive entrance policies to his speaking engagements AND barred all Press, the Right Wingers would be drooling with the excitement to take him down as a fascist dictator, opposed to journalistic freedoms.
They’d have to look up the definition of “Fascism” first though as they clearly think socialism = communism = fascism.
Bystander @23
Yep, the numbers will definately be inflated. And, conveniently, there will be no way of substantiating it. Typical.
there will be a mooseillion people there. maybe more.
I’m beginning to think that she gets more publicity from these types of events where no recording devices are *supposedly* allowed. If there were no recordings, then what? Wouldn’t be much to talk about! That’s not like our Sarah.
Anyone will be able to smuggle in a cell phone camera. They would be remiss to pat down genitals or breasts. That would be a lawsuit waiting to happen.
What happens if they find someone with a device? Oh, I’d love to see the fallout.
Oh please, Mudpups. Be there. Or at least be outside.
Just heard that the right to life group wanted exclusive rights to record Scarah’s speech and sell it on dvd to make extra money off the event. The strict rules are theirs not hers. They also said the security company was going to check all bags for weapons. I’ve only had that done at rock concerts.
My son says you can buy recording devices just a bit bigger than a 9 volt battery from Radio Shack or Staple pretty reasonable. Let’s hope someone gets in w/ one of those. Any mudpuppy volunteers?
According to the Wisconsin Expo Center website, the event is in Hall B, and has a maximum capacity of 5,400 people.
Hmm, 5,400 x $30 is $162,000. SP must be speaking at discount (considering her demand for $100K+ to appear in Iowa), as the Right to Life group will want to make something from the event, and the venue will want to get paid too.

————
Only queen Sarah, leader of the wingnuts can come packin.
doh, I missed the $3 convenience fee. Thus, only $27 x 5,400 for $145,800 (assuming that 5,400 ppl buy tickets)
You forgot a few:
* No gestures of gagging, such as sticking your finger down your throat.
* No gestures of choking with your tongue lolling out of your mouth and your eyes rolling up into your head.
For someone claiming transparency and freedom Sarah is quite the fascist.
They better ban hats too. They have those ball caps with the little spy cameras in them. Lapel pins too. I can see a run on the local spy store for cameras and recording devices.
Me, I’d bring a pad and pencil so it won’t set off the metal detectors. Hide them both in my bra. Providing someone not only gave me a free ticket but bribed me to go.
Plenty of ticktes available. Tee hee. I’ll bet.
Palin will also be rubbing elbows with the Washington elite………………………………

Ewww, all the polical a-leat-iss’d and there edumacation and ties and stuff. Surelee not them there folks.
The idiot will have to speak before or after a seasoned Democrat. Does that make her the comedy part of the evening?
OMG, I just saw that someone pointed out the announcement via a CBS article. Looky:
“Former Alaska governor and 2008 GOP presidential candidate Sarah Palin will be speaking at an event hosted by the group Wisconsin Right to Life this evening.”
presidential candidate? Huh?
H/T Bree Palin anonymous poster
Can I wear my tinfoil hat?
Hmmm right to life speech….I’m thinking she might want to relieve some more memories regarding her fifth pregnancy. No way would she want any recording of what she has to say just in case it comes back to bite her in the a$$.
#47 Paula: So Sarah will speak at the Gridiron Club on Dec.5 but she can’t accept other speaking engagements because of her busy book tour?
Hmm. I’ve got a Palm PDA with a keyboard. I can see buying a Palin book and hollowing it out to stash the PDA. Being a touch typist I’d rather type notes than take notes.
Of course, I don’t live anywhere near Wisconsin. Just saying a PDA isn’t on their list. It’s doable.

Or your daughter’s. Just sayin.
For being so “roguey” and “maverickey”, she sure is a “fraidy cat” when it comes to MSM. What up wid dat?
Ot and because I am from Wi. I hope it is ok just wanted to say thank you to AKM and Shannyn the dream catcher is just beautiful. Thank you so much .
And thank you for contributing to the fundraiser back in August, and to Mudflatter Chris for donating the dreamcatcher as a door prize! AKM
What if someone show’s up with a photographic memory. Then what?
Thank goodness they will allow barf bags!
I saw the article announcing that Palin had accepted the Gridion Dinner speaking engagement. Hmmmm She’s going to speak to all those journalism elites inside the Beltway?! What about all those folks in “Real America” that have invited her to speak?
lol, the group selling DVD’s of Scarah and her speech sounds about right, lol, Scarah will take a royalty fee, always about the money and always about Scarah. She’s not going to give herself away free. No siree, she’s going to milk it for all it’s worth. I think they do this sort of thing when big name mega wealthy Christians hot shots come to big churches to speak.
This event is at the State Fairgrounds in West Allis. I doubt that they will have metal detectors, although I suppose wands are a possibility. To be honest, searching bags is not that uncommon at paid events — often, the main thing the organizers are looking for is outside food/drink, because they want to sell that to you inside.
I’d be surprised if they looked really hard for cell phones, because if they find one, what are they gonna do? Turn away a ticketholder? Take the phone and issue a receipt? (Better not lose any of them).
Also, too, this is Milwaukee in November — people are going to be wearing lots of outerwear. With, you know, lots of pockets and stuff.
Right, swe123@50, we can’t have anyone comparing the WI RTL speech with her IN RTL speech last year (or was it earlier this year? I forget).
Anyway, it’s not impossible the security rules are the venue’s and not Sarah’s specifically (I said possibly). That’s pretty standard if you want to get into a TV show taping, for example. (And my student’s think I’m mean expecting them to stay off their crackberries for the 75 minutes of class … and expect they won’t have to go to the bathroom during that time. BTW, my students are adults, not grade schoolers….). So I do caution anyone trying to sneak something in. Do be prepared for the possibility that you might be caught and turned away. It could happen, and it would be within the rights of … whoever made the rules, to enforce their rules.
But I don’t see how it will be possible for her to avoid local press on the book tour, or people with recording devices, so in her words. “no worries”. There will be ample opportunity for oir Sarah to step all over it with her words.
Of course, starting off with Oprah and a five part (my God, what was someone thinking, that anyone would be interested in five parts of SP?) interview, I think we’ll get enough fodder for the entire next year’s worth of SP hilarity.

But her people will report 540,000 in attendance!!!
She didn’t list “No jumping up and shouting out “”You, Lie.”"
If you haven’t checked them out Cobert’s and Stewert’s takes on yesterdays “press conference” on the capitol steps are probably among their very best satires.
Oops, already rolled my eyes, blogged about it, told a friend and giggled, a lot. But then I’m not in Wisconsin so most of those wouldn’t have been a problem anyway.
Isn’t it nice that her poll numbers AND her ticket prices are dropping so quickly? $30, that’s just sad. OK, no it isn’t. But what a bargain in a recession, huh? A lot less than, say most concert tickets. On the other hand, a lot more than you would pay to see a fat lady in a fair sideshow, or whatever they charge people to “gawk” at a fair these days. (Hopefully they don’t even do that kind of thing anymore?) Can’t you just hear it now: “Oh look, it’s a Palin!”
Let the snark-fest begin! Anyone here live in Wisconsin?
another prerequisite for attendance.
no intellectual capacity to discern fact from fiction.
I’ll bet someone figures out how to get a camera and recording device in there. I have already been thinking of ways, but I can’t do it from here.

But Sarah loves guns. She loves the idea of packing. Why would she stoop to speaking at an event that supresses the right to bare arm?
Becasue if she throws that aside there’s a pile of money beneath it.
If I could go i would:
1) Check out spy stores and get the camera pen and other goodies
2) Git my hair done up in a “Palin-Beehive” and stash a flask, small bag od popcorn, camera and recording devices.
3) Wear 80′s dolman sleeve to blend in with the “faithful” and tape more devices (camera-pens, recorders to arms and armpits.
Someone, any Mudpup in Wisconsin NEEDS to go! Please… for the love of cheese and wine and the holy grail of truth and laughter!
As a frequent punk rock concert goer when I was younger, I figured out all kinds of ways to hid stuff so minimum wage guards could not find them. Later on a professional searcher of persons for DHS, you need a bunch of chairs, metal detectors and x-ray machines to find a pair of fingernail clippers.
Good luck. Bootleg copies of the speech will be on youtube before it’s over.
blue tooth spy glasses.
ohhh . if i could i would dress up like Jesus and when standing in front of her for a book signature take off my coat so my robe would unfurl and say shame on you Sarah for using me to justify your warped ambitions.
and check your brain at the door too.
I wonder if one is allowed to wear a hand appliqued(sp) ‘flying pig’ sweatshirt?! (camoflage(sg)
Is Meg Stapletongue part of the security team?
wait…no diapers should be on the list. you Know those sea of pee’ers won’t want to leave their seats when nature calls – might miss some pearl of wisdom dropping from st. sarah’s lips….
Charge $30 per person. Probably gets a nice money offer for going. First class tickets for smug SP and possibly hubby and kids……just to talk about what?
I get frustrated with these different causes that put forward much time, energy and money just to hear Sarah babble on for 45 minutes. Why do people think $P’s testimony of her keeping her baby any more important than her next door neighbor’s? Do they figure just Sarah should get a monetary reward for making that decision?
There are plenty of women who made the choice to keep their babies against all odds, who are average working women, or stay-at-home women, who don’t depend on praise from the public eye, and who never get a dime of money from anyone.
Organizers are going to have to evolve with the times. I think conferences hosting very special guests who take a lot of energy, time and money to set up these things, should stop, take a moment, and use the monies to open a shelter for young teenage girls. In these hard economic times, who can afford these tickets? Republican higher middle-class citizens who have vacation homes and are set for life. You can bet that the young girl who is alone, pregnant isn’t going to be able to afford to attend. And, could they guarantee counseling, help, support for these girls or women if they do decide to keep their babies? No, it’s a facade.
SP is no hero in my book. She kept a Down’s Syndrome child in very pampered surroundings. Healthy grandparents, teenage kids ready to help, a husband who could afford to stay home………they were not living paycheque to paycheque. This sham, creating her to be a Mother Saint Hero is nauseating.
Sorry, rant over!
Just remember who you are dealing with some of those people are downright dangerous so if anyone can go watch your back and for Gods sake don’t get caught. I am home bound or I might try it just for the H— of it.alas it is not to be .I have seen some at work shoving and pushing pregnant women at clinics and just because a woman goes to Planned parent hood does not meant they are going for an abortion some go for prenatal care ect. A lot of young people go there because they can get birth control cheaper since it is not covered by insurance
#69 dreamgirl, you could carry a good sized camera or recording device in one of those “super size glamorous bumpits.” If I recall correctly, the bumpit comes in three different sizes, an especially large one for proms, nascar races and rtl events.
You just know she is going to repeat her, “I thought about aborting but selflessly chose life…” BS story
The security may be partly due to the organization wanting to market the video, but I think that Sarah also enjoys the restrictions. Make you wonder what kind of security they will have in place for the book tour.
I heard on NPR the other morning that a Cheesehead went to see President Obama and they attempted to block him from wearing it in. They told him he could come in but he had to leave the Cheese Hat behind. He refused to doff his cap and instead said he would just leave. The Secret Service checked the cheese and determined it was safe, and he was allowed to wear it into the event. The President signed his cheese. How cool is that? I guess $P only wants to sign diapers.
@ #72 yellowgranny
Agreed – leave the brain at the door
What is this woman afraid of? I went to the Points of Light Event in College Station, TX two weeks ago today where President Obama spoke and we did have our purses checked and went through metal detectors but that was it. Palin is a lunatic.
Amen Rebeka!! Rant, Baby, Rant!
Exactly what I would have said.
What about healthcare costs for normal people who have disabled children?
Why is she not fighting FOR healthcare for all so someone who might want to continue a problem pregnancy won’t terminate just because there is no way the family could afford the care that child would need. Well, Miss Wasilla, what about THAT?!
What happened to all of her promises to “fight for Alaska”? She’s such a loser of a person. The fact that she receives so much adulation is disgusting.
Heh. “Bags will be searched…”
Shoot, I could fit a cell phone in my back or breast pocket and no one would know. What about my sock or my bra? This is ridiculous.
Also, I’ve been at events where they search the bags… I’m not sure that I trust my security to the people checking my bags for minimum wage. I trust my fellow event goers for not bringing dangerous items to the event.
Rebekkah, your ‘rant’ is completely understandable. You touch on so many great issues, like, yes, what you choose to spend your money on says a lot about you as a person. I did the math and under the new Republican Heath Plan (no really, the real one), I’d have the thrilling opportunity to have health insurance (which I do not have now) cost, by 2016, $610 a month instead of $660 a month (the CBO estimate for what would be saved under the republican plan).
Whoppee.
See, what galls me is that when I say I can’t afford health insurance, they say I am lazy or cheap, should work more (I have two part-time jobs, non-eligible for health insurance, so don’t have any; how much more am I supposed to work?) or suggest I waste my money on other things besides the neccessities.
So it’s understabdably upsetting that people go out on the Tea Bag Parties and act like they are being monetarily squeezed end from end … when that is not what this administration has done to them. If they are really concerned, they should tighten their own belts, like they are asking us to do, and stop wasting money on unimportant entertainment like 30 bucks a pop to hear Sarah Palin speak for 45 minutes (yes, the rest of the time is warm-up acts).
Go with your spouse, that’s $60. bring one kid, that’s $90.
I agree, you should have the right to choose to spend your money that way if you choose. But when I say “I can’t afford health insurance” because I don’t get it through my employer, (and cannot), I really resent anyone telling me I should just “work harder”.

“You know, for someone who claims to be a rogue and isn’t afraid of what other people think it really is sort of hypocritical to not let the media, the press cover your event,” he told Wisconsin Radio Network.
———————————————————-
And she wants to be POTUS? What no press conferences? no liberal reporters asking pesky questions? Some rogue if she’s afraid of the media. Nothing but a JOKE AND FRAUD. Maybe she should just go to “Guam” with her followers and be the cult leader that she is. It’s HER rules and nobody else’s.
For all of our Pie Spy friends, spytechs dot com has many variations of audio and video solutions. Pens, Watches, Sunglasses, Buttons.
BTW, I would donate $ to a special needs group to attend. ( Palin calls her(?) child, Trig, the “R” word is beyond appalling!) Especially since her track record as GINO shows she cut spending for special needs programs. What a hypocrite.
I wish an angry contingent of autistic and special needs groups descend upon her ‘speech’ like DonaldTrump to a beauty pagent(sp). Would serve her a healthy dose of reality for ‘working families’. (not like hers-the Grifters of Wasilla)
Bugging devices don’t appear to be banned. Most attendees won’t be able to check their brain at the door. Cannot check what you do not possess.
We’re making this harder than it needs to be. No need for smuggled recording devices. The following are words/phrases that will definitely be in the speech:
By God’s graces; blessed little angel; real Americans; progressing our great nation; also too; big government; death panels; Todd, Track, Bristol, Willow Piper, Trigg; my wonderful parents; the North Star; Alaska; midwestern values; basketball; team work; John McCain; honered by the experience; for the troops; fighting for you; God Bless America; humbled; liberal media; Obamacare; Washington insiders; take back your country; elites; not like you; this great country; under God.
All we need is for someone to write down the other words she uses. Piece of cake.

Is no one going to outfit themselves with a grammy-cam-equipped spy pie for Palin’s Big Talk?
What’s the point of having a spy pie if you can’t have its creator sign it for you after it records the events taking place around it? Say, at the double-naught spy pie conference and baby-prop reunion?
More pie! Spy Pie! Sly spy pie! Humble spy pie!
Is Palin being (quite) clever?
After Hong Kong, the consensus had been that her speech had been a bit of a bore. Who cares about salmon fishing (or Palin’s opinions)?
Now, we’re almost anxious to know what stupid thing she might say!
Golly, gee, it’s Gomer Palin, you know!
Re the Gridiron Club Dinner…I thought i remembered what it was but checked Wickipedia anyhow…The below from their site:
The Gridiron Club is best known for its annual dinner which traditionally features the United States Marine Band, along with satirical musical skits by the members and remarks by the President of the United States and representatives of each political party. The skits and speeches by various politicians are expected to be self-deprecating or otherwise sharply comedic.
Couple that with the fact that Barney Frank is the Democratic invitee and the President usually also attends and I predict a nervous breakdown…or a Glenn Beck style appendicitis attack just prior to her turn.
what is she afraid of? …being portrayed correctly? what a hypocrite!…speaking at a right to life group…why doesn’t she take care of the one’s she has? …and if Levi’s telling the truth, then she should stop using the R word for Trigg or Tripp or whatever the hell his name is…that’s the group that should protest and be up in arms over her sarcastic, demeaning words.
After the “Pat Down,” you’ll get the “Dumb Down.”
Sorry guys….I can’t think of a solitary reason to sneak any kind of recording device into her talk.
@ 94 Sassy, Here’s hoping for Spy Pie in her Eye that knows not a lie from lye nor the truth. (forget about ethics, family ‘values’ or even the good old ‘work ethics’… flies right over Palin’s head into “…In what respect Charlie?” territory and probably Russian territory too and also…)
GAH!
why am I being held for moderation?
If Paul McCartney goes, do you suppose he might feel like he’s back in the U.S.S.R.?
What an uptight, paranoid, schizophrenic, hypocritical, scaredy cat, b**ch. You can run but you can’t hide Sarah. I can’t wait until you have your Carrie Prejean moment.
Anyone that would pay to see this piece of work will soon learn the value of the two sayings, “You get what you pay for”, and “a fool and their money are soon parted”.
Just out of curiosity, but isn’t the Exposition Center a public place? Seems to me that the restriction are over the top for Wisconsin… someone ought to challenge the restrictions.

:stare: :stare: 
I think one of the main reasons there is such great interest in a SP speech is because her appearances have been very rare since the campaign. Right now it’s just supply vs demand. It seems Palin or her handlers know they can keep interest high by limiting media exposure to her appearances. If she were giving lots of speeches and everyone got to hear more of her incoherent word salad, the criticism by the media and those bad bloggers would quickly put an end to her being a sought after speaker. The limited appearances and exclusion of the media is so she can milk it as long as possible.
Only if you’re Levi Johnston.
Someone should go in wearing a ‘hat cam’ in their baseball cap…that would rule all and I’ll bet they don’t check hats…heh heh…well, they might after reading this
104 Laurie, I too and also think there is interest because of curiosity seekers, ie truth seekers, the Jon Stewart kind. (not the rubber-neckers who slow down at traffic accidents.) One wants to be able to record her lies and platitudes for prosperity. She is a vile vile woman. Keep your friends close and your enemies closer! Spy pie, my oh my indeed!
It would be funny if she tried to read her concession speech or parts of it, at Milwaukee. I can just see the RTL host backstage looking frenzied, saying, no we never told her she could do that” – turn out the lights!!
In her bizarre mind, getting to finally read it because John McCain said “no” last year, has probably crossed her mind.
WTF??? NO CRAYONS??? LOL. No cameras so we can’t have a record of when she sticks her foot in her mouth:P
@laurie – you make a good point there. If there is one thing $P knows is how to stay in the limelight.
@laurie – oops, I meant stage unless someone pulls the plug on her…like her concession speech.
Never fear – someone will be on hand to get the goods on Palin’s spew.
And of course, she is stoking ongoing media interest by the closed door policy she demands at her appearances. She sure is “workin’ hard for Alaska!”
Palin will never hold a public office again as she is too scared to discuss her ‘views’ with anyone.
And she still doesn’t get it that she is merely a fluff girl for the Rep. party, or that she is regarded as a laughingstock to tens of millions of Americans.
For now, the Quitter can laugh all the way to the bank – just like so many other crooks, i.e. Bill Allen, Madoff, etc. But she’ll get hers ….. eventually.
You had me going there for a moment. A trip to the local spy store may be in order. Someone will get it.
Maybe the poor folks in Wisconsin will get a repreive and Tina Fey will deliver the speech.
Well so far, she is still a Governor and a “presidential candidate” to boot!
My my my……………Quit Making Things up!
Kilia – governor of what, exactly? And last time I checked, she has not announced her candidacy for any office, much less President. But go ahead and send her some cash – I’m sure you don’t have any better use for your hard earned money.
snowlady – Kilia was just pointing out the LIES – the event billed her as a “governor” and a “Presidential candidate,” – NOT Kilia!
#111-Eatwildfish- I hope some interviewer on her book tour asks her just what she has done for Alaska since resigning as governor.
Sounds like a dare. Bet there will be something on U-tube immediately following.
The “no memorization” part should be easy though.
I’m sure they will be allowing guns in… Second amendment and all.

Everyone there will be “analyzing” her with new eyes. She IS an ambitious woman, too bad she doesn’t have ethics to go along with her thirst for “power”…
Not exactly OT:
I’m here in Milwaukee, but just hearing this news of this SP speech.
What I did hear about during my work day, just among colleagues
at the main hospitals where I work, that one of the new widows from Fort
Hood works in one of these hospitals;
the daughter of another staff was in
Orlando just leaving the site of another shooting.
And I remember that the guns used at
Virginia Tech and another mass shooting after that were sold by the same
gun dealer in Green Bay WI.
And #Palin’s speech here during the campaign was the start of the
“go sic ‘em ” speeches where her audience had people who shouted
“Kill him…”
A little too much…
No 40 minutes… more like 25 minutes.
“She didn’t mention President Barack Obama by name in her 25-minute speech, but briefly touched on health care reform legislation and pressed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to make sure all voices were heard on the issue.”

Anyone in their right mind wouldn’t shell out $30.00 to sit and listen to a lot of BS!! However, it would be interesting to hear if someone gets in and breaks one of the “rules”. Now That would be a good story.
Do we even have true count of how many of the possible 4500 tickets were sold? If the purchases were short of that number the outcome could have put the event in the hole if the ” featured speaker” took her $100k.
Given the very, very inflated numbers attributed to the Capitol steps charade, as espoused by the right wingers and faux news yesterday, it would be impossible to believe anything coming out of the Wisconsin venue, unless you personally knew the person giving the estimates was a trustworthy person.
terpsichore Right on I have been watching all the money spent lately on winning elections all that money spent and we could probably already have paid for at least part of the health insurance reform bill with some kind of public option.Sure shows why only people or I should say mostly people with money run for political positions Look at Romney and Meg Whitman and Mr feel good Brown,who has the backing of some megabucks in state and out of state,Texas comes to mind,Do any of these people do any thing to help others with all they have or are they hording it and only use what they have to for tax deductions.What a messed up country when you have to spend millions and millions to win an election.I know a friend just told be that it has always been big money that controlled our country.sigh
No stollers? And that’s coming from a mom? I would expect in that case for it to read “no strollers, no car seats, no wheelchairs, no walkers”. No babies, no handicapped, no old people. Just the purty ones who can vote. Sad. Those who need to control to this point must be pretty insecure. Think she’ll even show up?
betzy I know you don’t know who or what to believe I read a post on one of the news sites that they claimed their were 50,000 at the capital and I just can’t see that especially on a work day and with the economy so bad .I guess the republicans could have paid their wages so they could show up but 50,000 I don’t think so. I wouldn’t have thought their were that many that would go to see palin in Wisconsin,was surprised to see they said 5000.I could see it if it was up around Oshkosh,but then again the state fair area is a pretty safe area.
