I think she's creeping closer to that day by day. Naturally, she has no earthly clue that's what she's doing. As if the "tele-palm-ter", disastrous wig, extreme nonsensical screeching, mini-skirt, and leg-rubbing weren't cringe-worthy enough, now she referred to Texas as "Alaskas's little sister state"? OMG! I hope every soul in Texas hears about that monster insult. You CANNOT say that about Texas!! I can almost see the posses forming as we speak. Proud, red-blooded Texans won't cotton to her idiotic comment at all...them's fightin' words. Me, too Lacy Lady. I think she’s creeping closer to that day by day.

She follows a pattern----deceit -deceit-deceit in all she does and says. Someday, sometime, she is going to dig a hole deep enought that she can't crawl out. I am waiting for that day.

Anyone from Texas, who knows someone who could shed some light on this?

I noticed that long before the photo surfaced.

All the rest of the left-palm-forward frames showed different combinations of heavy/light // long/sort // thin/thick “smudges’… none of the frames showed a consistent ‘layout’. Surely IF there had been ‘a list’, the frames showing it would have had <i>some</i> consistency, no? I also find it <i>extremely</i> odd that out of <i>all</i> the media present, with <i>all</i> the cameras trained on her, only *one* photographer noticed the ’something’ on her left palm and got curious enough to zoom in on it to see what it was?

Think of it from the financial standpoint of the photographer…can you <i>imagine</i> the amount of money a photo of SP with a ‘crib sheet’ written on her hand, would bring?

They are saying there is nothing wrong with her writing notes on her hand....people have done it for years,etc. First of all, I challenge them to name "people". Are they talking about junior high school "people"? Secondly, I guess those gosh darn high tech teleprompters are bad, but taking a sharpie to your palm or reading notes is good. Sheesh.
