Sarah Palin Is A National Embarrassment And A Bailout Socialist (CBS Couric Interview)

(Just a screenshot...video is below)

I'm pretty sure her answer is in English, though it's difficult to know for sure without a translation of her tweets by William Shatner on Conan's Tonight Show.

Seriously for a moment, Sarah Palin is an acute, national embarrassment, like a troublesome rash that won't respond to treatment.  This interview was conducted on September 24th of 2008, at the apex of the financial crisis, a time when we needed intelligence and insight from our leaders. If Palin proves anything at all in this clip, it's that we really need to have a requisite IQ minimum for politicians.

Any remaining supporters of Caribou Barbie, please take an honest look and listen to Palin's response.  She's so dense she makes George Bush sound like a Rhodes Scholar.  I would honestly rate her intelligence about equal to that of Bernanke's replacement from Happy Hour In Santa Cruz.  She remembers the talking points, but has no idea what they mean.  May the heavens protect the United States if she ever gains national office.

And one last thing, Palin shows quickly that she's a bailout Socialist, no different than Bush, Obama and McCain.  It's quite obvious she doesn't even have the most basic understanding of finance, or any of the other concepts she attempts to discuss.

U.S. voters should be enraged at McCain for allowing such an imbecile to get so close to the White House.  Have we no shame, have we no more decency?

And if one more person says she's cute and spunky, I'm going to grab an IED and blow up your brain.

Here's the clip:

Video:  Sarah Palin & Katie Couric discuss the bailouts -- Sep. 2008

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.

T-Dar--

What's the date of your mortgage? If it's in the mortgage securitization sweet spot (2000-08) and it's with a big bank, odds are good that your mortgage servicer doesn't have the promissory note and is royally screwed should it file a foreclosure proceeding--assuming you have a lawyer worth his salt (a massive assumption for many distressed homeowners, I realize).

I wrote my bank in September of last year asking to see a copy of the promissory note, and they blew me off. So I stopped making my mortgage payment in December. Now they send letters all the time. I haven't had time to respond yet, but will do so very very soon.

For now just remember: possession is 9/10 of the law. Stick to your guns and stay in your home. Lemme know what's up.

We redid the bank note back in 2005. Layed a 15 year pay back on it at the start in 2000 Dec. We now have about 5 years to go from paying 2 extra payments a year. We cant find out who owns our note, but we do get a statement each Mo. But it dosent seem to be going down much with only 5 years to go.

Evan if the guy holding our note is good today. Tommrow his bank could call him and call in all his notes, and down we would go. We've worked so hard to get whAre we are. I would hate for some goverment shit head bank go under, and we lose it all.

I would get a new VW Jetta TDI Diesel out of the deal.......58 mpg, 39 mpg city............guess DAr read to many storys on the DB about good people losing their homes.

yeah..I wish Katie had asked Obama what he read in regards to the economy, healthcare, military? Seems he only writes books on dreams. He writes and goes on speaking tours with a teleprompter...but no real results. You libs can fall in love with his words...Palin has a good track record when it comes to work.

But do you not know who is putting up all the "Endless Money" behind the Palin Camp.......? Making sure she is in the MSM day after day.......??????????

George Soros is making sure she has all the money she needs. Sara Palin can cook, run a houseold, pay the bills, feel pain, knows the truth, & very eazy 2 look at.......plus take care of Tod's needs......."LoL" !

Sara Palin would make a "Piss-Poor" president. Now Hillery Clinton would make a great president. She would have her "Mom & Dad" killed if it would help her. Sell her daughter if thats what it took. You cant be a nice person if yr gona be president today.

If the Rep. shut down goverment and say no more spending, then we will have a start. Every thing will be OK for us on the bottom, but the SOB's will be locked out to our money for the next two years................

But then I cant spell, much less know shit, so dont take my word for anything....... Tex !

Y'all don't forget to fill out Schedule M to take advantage of the $400-800 tax credit OBAMA implemented for ALL wage-earning middle class Americans.

Jesus Christ.

With all this blather about Sarah Palin, isn't it obvious that the 'Daily Bail' just another clueless propaganda rag? Just like the lame stream media, they use Palin's name to attract readers and then go on and on about how they just can't believe how dumb she is, blah, blah, blah.
The truth of the matter is that Sarah Palin is nothing short of brilliant. And they know it.

I can tell you one thing for sure......................most on the DB know SP would make a poor president becouse she just wouldent mix with the meat grinder in washington....................!!! !!! !!! so they hold nothing back.

They do "Strongly Put Her Down" for thinking she could run them Bastards in Washington....? They will neaver addmitt she can give a 30 year old a "Stiffy" just by seeing her in a swim suit.

But she cant run this goverment, country, yes. You havent been a "Family Member" as long as Dar has, or you would know these "Good Ol Boys" talk a hard line.

They will neaver talk her up as long as she thinks she could run them "Shit Head's, in Washington...................Trust Me, I,ve learned that much living on the "Daily Bail"............!

George Soros and the Dem. party are using her as a scape goat if the Rep. cant find anyone else to run, so BHO stays for 4 more years.

Thats the last I had heared, and why he "GS" is putting so much money behind her. Set her up just to teare her down so your boy stays right where he is.

If we could get RP to start working with Paul Ryan now, we could get a head start on 2012.......!

The current piece of shit in the white house is intelligent?
He's sounds of average intelligence when he's arrogantly screaming the shit they
wrote for him on the teleprompter.
He shows his true IQ when trying to scream extemporaneously...

I think Palin (another imbecile controlled 100% by AIPAC) is exactly on par with the president
in the brains department....

I'm glad she's now at least politically finished with the news last week that she was sucking off that
ape faced, 1/4 human basketball player
