Palin Speaks

To Reporters It's news when the GOP VP candidate actually speaks to reporters, let alone answers questions.

Obama campaign aides said the Illinois senator did not know of Ayers' past when they first met in Chicago. Palin told reporters the lack of clarity about their relationship was precisely why it was relevant to raise it on the campaign trail. "It's relevant to connect that association he has with Ayers, not so much he as a person Ayers, but the whole situation and the truthfulness and the judgment there that you must question if again he's not being forthright in all of his answers, "Palin said. "It makes you wonder about the forthrightness, the truthfulness of the plans he's telling Americans with regards to the economic recovery." Pressed on whether she was saying Obama was dishonest, Palin said no. "But in terms of judgment, in terms of being able to answer a question forthrightly, it has two different parts to it, that judgment and that truthfulness," she said.

Jeezis Hussein Christ, speaking of someone who can't "answer a question forthrightly"!! Meanwhile, your economy plunges deeper into the toilet each day, you'll all be working greeter jobs until you drop dead right there at the front entrance to Wal*Mart, & Gov. Palin's audiences are screaming for the blood of Bill Ayers or Obama. That Accent We finally got the scoop on the Governor's accent. From a column by Steven Pinker in The NYT:

The dialect is certainly for real. Listeners who hear the Minnewegian sounds of the characters from “Fargo” when they listen to Ms. Palin are on to something: the Matanuska-Susitna Valley in Alaska, where she grew up, was settled by farmers from Minnesota during the Depression.

We'd been wondering why she sounded like that. Of course, it's probably not that good a thing that she grew up in a valley of Northern Okies, sad losers who couldn't make it in Minnesota & had to run all the way to Alaska. Maybe that's why Wasilla is the alleged "Meth Capital of Alaska."
