EXPOSED - Sarah Palin Conveniently Forgets That She Supported The Bailouts: "Protesters Want Bailouts Just Like Wall Street Fat Cats"
Video - Sarah Palin and Katie Couric discuss the bailouts - Sep. 2008
Before we get to her speech from last night, watch this and weep, er, I mean, get out your Palin-speak translator. Palin's bailout hypocrisy is perhaps greater than any other political figure besides Rick Perry. So we'll call it a tie between two idiots.
- Couric: Why isn't it better, Governor Palin, to spend $700 billion helping middle-class families who are struggling with health care, housing, gas and groceries? Allow them to spend more, and put more money into the economy, instead of helping these big financial institutions that played a role in creating this mess?
- Palin: That's why I say I, like every American I'm speaking with, we're ill about this position that we have been put in. Where it is the taxpayers looking to bail out. But ultimately, what the bailout does is help those who are concerned about the health care reform that is needed to help shore up our economy. Um, helping, oh, it's got to be about job creation, too. Shoring up our economy, and putting it back on the right track. So health care reform and reducing taxes and reining in spending has got to accompany tax reductions, and tax relief for Americans, and trade -- we have got to see trade as opportunity, not as, uh, competitive, um, scary thing, but one in five jobs created in the trade sector today. We've got to look at that as more opportunity. All of those things under the umbrella of job creation.
My commentary on Palin and bailouts is here:

Now, listen to this speech she gave last night about the bailouts:
Sarah Palin says protesters in the Occupy movement are looking for a handout just like “Wall Street fat cats.”
“I would like to know that my federal government understands a vision that believes in empowerment versus entitlement,” Palin told an audience the Republican Party of Florida (RPOF) Victory Dinner Thursday. “To see this struggle in action, look no further than the Occupy Wall Street movement that is going on.”
“This Occupy Wall Street has — of course, when it first kind of got off the ground, people looked at it, I looked at it and was thinking these folks, they feel legitimate indignation about the Wall Street bailouts, financial institutions behaving recklessly and then we get stuck with the bill. And then three years later, many of us still quite ticked off because we don’t have assurances that those who caused the financial collapse in the first place, that they are being held accountable, and that it won’t happen again.”
She continued: “But this Occupy Wall Street crowd — now it seems to evolved a bit — Occupy Wall Street crowd is drawn now to, I believe, the wrong conclusions. They say, ‘Wall Street fat cats got a bail out, so now I want one too.’ And the correct answer is, ‘No one is entitled to a bailout.’”

@DB, hold the presses on any Corzine stories.... JPM just denied they had the money.

You are flat out wrong. TARP was pushed by Bush and Paulson - both Republicans - supported by McCain and Palin, and Democrats. They are all guilty. Did you even watch the video?

What a bunch of duds. For kicks, I asked my better half if she'd remember if I had any sexual harassment settlements ala Pizza Face.
All I got was a dirty look...lol.
That same camp is calling Cain's accusers as money-grubbers. You can cut the hypocrisy with a chain saw.
Both parties are controlled by corporate interest. Once people get that through their heads, we will not be able to solve any issues. This is not about parties are what politician is too blame. You get rid of one puppet for another. You need to get rid of the puppet master before things change. Who are the puppet masters of our government, well they are the military contractors who want to continue wars for profit, the medical industry, the insurance companies, and the worse one who are the source of the problem the Federal Reserve and the banking industry.
So stop with the non-sense of blaming the puppets, they are powerless and not in control of the system. People who control the money supply control everything. It is the life line of all the other industries. Our fight should be focused on the Fed's and the banking industry. Everyone else will fall after them.
I wonder how ol Tom Jefferson would think about, Democrat or Republican, charge every one of the guilty with felonies and lock them up.
I figure 1/2 the total will be Republican and the rest Democrats.
Wake up and recognize that i had to edit this post.
i took my time

Anybody concerned about the soldiers of the banksters from both parties guarding the crooked voting machines with automatic weapons? This must be avoided.

The Beast in Sarah
In Alaska, a newsgirl named Sarah
Whose loins were a steamy caldera
Let one of the black wolverines
Get into her jeans
And use her garage to park his big black Pantera.
Sarah said "That car's really got the juice!,
And it fits in this garage really loose"!
But the Wolverine had to go,
And then Sarah, don't you know
True to form, started dating a Moose!
Later "Mama Griz" decided to marry
Her sweetheart polar bear, who's white ordinary.
Now "Once you go Black,
You never go back!"
Is liable to give Todd his first coronary!
So Mama Griz, the political over achiever
Put some ice on her hot Alaskan beaver.
But now we all know
That there's more to her show
'Cause this candidate once had "Jungle Fever"!
CHarles Ulysses Feney
That's a good question. Many people, it seems, who were initially behind the bailout (the Treasury bailout aka TARP) have since come to the opposite position. Two examples are Glenn Beck and Alan Grayson.
Now, Grayson I don't have a problem with since he redeemed himself, by publicly and repeatedly eviscerating Federal Reserve officials such as Elizabeth Coleman, Scott Alvarez, and even Benjamin himself. His cross-examinations of these fools was the legal/entertainment equivalent of a beautifully marbled prime rib cooked Pittsburgh style, just delicious. So he's okay. I'll probably contribute to his '12 campaign just because those clips incite such bloodlust in me.
Glenn Beck I can't really judge since I don't watch his show. Perhaps he's redeemed himself by poleaxing Tim Geithner or Larry Summers or something. I just don't know. The few times I've seen him, I've been really impressed by his presentation of facts but been absolutely bewildered by some of his conclusions.
But Sarah Palin? Gimme a break. She licks her finger and holds it to the wind. In the way of atoning for one's sins, that's just not gonna cut it. Until she disembowels a representative of the Banker Party on principle, she's stuck with her endorsement of TARP, I'm afraid. And I don't see that ever changing, as her IQ simply isn't high enough for much other than cheerleading.
Sarah Palin gave American conservatives a "KISS" ......... she should follow the REST of Judas Iscariot's lead.
neocons are the "Priests of the Temple".
The end of the tea party was deciding to pay this political mercenary. A true sign the party has been co-opted by corporate interest. She has no political experience, no political views. She doesn't read newspapers or books. She is an under educated air head animating a dress suit and glasses. How blind to reality does one need to be to sit and listen to her speak on anything other than the weather or sports?
I object to people playing with matches and sir, they tend to pee in bed when doing so.
Good Night!
I'm convinced SP is being kept around and promoted so friends of her promoter can take her for a test drive as well. After the interview in front of the turkey sacrifice, it is evident that she is an oddly marketed commodity. 'I'M LOST' sign taped to her back and all. She should stay in character by accessorizing her wardrobe for speeches like the RiPOfF convention by adding ducttape patches to the elbows of her faux leopardskin coat. It would imply financial desperation and a message that she would do things better than other dressed up candidates would for the same money.
Indeed a most material emission, er, omission.
You talk about a " waste of life and breath" and show yourself to be the WEAK, MINDLESS FOOL that you are. Thank you for showing your FASCIST beliefs and morals for all the world to see. To read your drivel is to watch your slosh around in your own filth and cruelness. People, real people from all ages and walks of life are taking part in exercising their 1st amendment right. They are old grandmothers and fathers. They are children and students. They are rich and poor. They are left and right. How DARE you make judgements without knowledge or compassion. Your WEAKNESS and FEAR is showing........maybe you should work on that.......

I wish more people would understand the real message......There are so many on the DB latly that dont have a clue what thAre talkin about. But thats the way the MSM wants it.....!
Sure, it started with the clollage kids. Now they are only 50% of the make up.Lots of
'Moms-&-Dads" that have lost their jobs, homes, cars, savings, are haddit up to here. They lost everything they worked for, and they are Mad As Hell......
The last thing any of us have is to Protest, with out violance. It started out that way, but the goverment saw to it, it turned into a free for all.
And its not the Left, or the right. Evan union people have joined the movement. Were all pleanty Pissed, for what has been going on for the last 65 years. Its just that it all came to a head. You can only Poke a Stick at a tiger or Grisly Bear, so many times till it kills ya.
Like I told a poster today, im not mad at the people that Repeat the MSM. Im realy sick n tired of telling them they have no clue what thAre talkin about. & They spit in yr face if you try and help them with the truth......All they do is repeat what the MSM tellls them to say.....
Anyone that puts down the movement, is So Lost. Their the ones that have "No Frickin Clue", whats realy going on today....I just wish I dident care so much for our country. And its people. I could stop sticking my nose in the fight to save it.....?
Shes like the wind sock today wile I was flying. It points out the way the wind is Blowin........! She is one of Them Flok's.....?
Vote for the one that is not a member of the Buildenburg Group, TLC, CFR, Skull & Bones.......I think that leaves only 2 men............Only 1 is the best of the two...........
Thanks Buddy, but I think there is 51% on the "Daily Bail", that dont see eye-2-eye with ya....? This is so out of control today. I guess the MSM is in thAre face more today.
Maby it has to do with the Blood of Scott........MSM has to justafi the cops undercover, helping the movement to throw rocks, sticks, stones, bricks, and start fires, wile the Thug's sliped away when the news crew show up..........?
Hey, OK me on yr web site so Gomps, Dar, and "JTS" can use the RV, and blow the air horns.....?
MacArthur was following orders. We have NO Attorney General to speak of, and most likely need a constitutional tune-up to revive the processes which drew the best in the world to this country to make it work. Eric Holder, Jr. is what you call a 'shill'. Your exclusionary logic processes preclude useful input from you. My logic processes are inclusive, but this forum, as great and beneficial as it is, of course must be limited in length of content due to space constraints. I would like to be able to provide more.
Believing in Sarah Palin should be accompanied by some sort of self-disclaimer due to self-abuse and personal rejection, at least. I used to have a big time crush on Diana Ross and The Supremes. I still do. They could sing like the angels and Diana Ross is supernatural. What does Sarah Palin do besides spin around in the middle of the room with that 'I'M LOST' sign taped to her back. She DOES NEED rescuing. Her manager would have you thoroughly beaten if you tried to rescue her, believe me. They sacrificed a turkey right behind her during an interview on TV once. Blood all over the place. I got their message.
You ignore my message and spout as if suffering from rhetorical incontinence. Your grasping at possible reasons for my words to mean something else reflect your fading cries for help in 'Sarahland'. A large number of the financial industry deserve extensive prison sentences and wealth confiscation. I have been watching the financial industry over the past 25 years decay from a basis for creative enterprise to wholesale looting by Bush worshipping dead duck investors without other father figures in their lives. The stock market is not a trout farm for the financial industry to 'catch the big one'. It was designed to channel funding to progressive innovation in technologies, food production, etc.. Now, investment houses have no compunction against flat-out stealing. That is illegal.
Do you know what stealing is Vernon Clayson? I have it from good authority, deceased now, that many of the investors discovered dead from 'falling out of windows' or shooting themselves in the head' did not 'fall' and did not 'shoot themselves' after the 1929 crash. They were done by pros after their clients discovered they had been kept in the dark about the impending doom of the 1929 crash, which was set up to occur, while many of the rich had been advised and cashed out. Wall Street investors are doing it again, and the usual 'cashing out/investing' ratio in the stock market by CEOs is usually less than 1/40 during the last few years. These Wall Street moron self-proclaimed 'predators' need to milk the middle class clients to pay their own bills in the form of embezzlements in the guise of 'limited returns' and 'unfortunate losses'. You getting nervous there Clayson? Maybe you have clients who have questions for which your answers will fall disgustingly short. My debts are less than $1,500 and I feel fine. I help my neighbors and we can see you and your ilk. You better lose at least as bad as your clients if that is indeed the reason for your apparent neurosis. Play it safe. You are not at the trout farm.
Dream of Palin spinning around in the middle of the room with the 'I'M LOST' sign stuck to the back of her sweater if you wish. That won't help you. Good serious people who have invested with honorable intentions are being mocked by loud mouth financial industry crooks with BAD problems ahead. I wish for a speedy recovery by Marine Scott Olsen. Semper fidelis.

But that's not a debate we can afford right now. The people of the U.S.A., who've been mulcted for at least $3.8 trillion, require justice first. This means that perpetrators like Angelo Mizooli need to be seen being publicly escorted to prison in Chino.
Winter will be good for @Occupy. It'll come back with greater focus, probably 5 times as many people, and with one specific geographic target to kick off the longest hottest summer of them all.
Unified, Americans are always a factor, a fucking force to be reckoned with. #Occupy succeeded in its mission: Americans have taken note.
