The thing I thought about when I saw that video was of the King of the Hill Episode where Peggy Hill takes a bunch of students to Mexico and since here Spanish is so bad they end up at a butcher shop that she thinks is a zoo until the butcher cuts the head off of a chicken.
She's done a great job as governor, when none of the "smartest people" thought she was qualified. I think she would have done a great job as President.
It may not look good but it really doesn't matter. I mean who haven't killed chicken or turkey in their life? I actually killed a chicken when I was eight and watched it ran with blood all over the kitchen (and my aunt who was suppose to hold it fainted), that wasn't too pretty a sight.
I don't speak for all democrats, but the last thing I do is fear her. I pray that she does run for President in '12. I pray even harder that she wins the nomination.
This thread just shows what we have become. People don't want a real person who is willing to be themselves and not apologize for it, they want a media fabricated blow-up doll. They want a faked and fabricated lie created by overlooking and ignoring the truth. People want a lie. Reality is a saturday night live skit and people don't really kill turkeys they are born in a plastic bag with no feathers, feet, or head.
Uhhhh yeah, I want a lie because I prefer to hear and see my politicians without a backdrop of turkey butchering. Right... You're weird.
honestly are you stupider than she is? You expect me to believe that she was just walking along with a cup of starbucks outside of a random snowy Alaskan turkey slaughterhouse in business attire, WHEN A GROUP OF TELEVISION CAMERAS SURPRISED HER AND INTERVIEWED HER WITH DECAPITATING TURKEYS IN THE BACKGROUND! Reality! Christ almighty - I hope more Republicans believe this though, not just you. I have stated my preference for Palin 2012 many times - she's the surest bet there is for continued Republican irrelevance.
A young man named John received a parrot as a gift. The parrot had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary. Every word out of the bird's mouth was rude, obnoxious and laced with profanity. John tried and tried to change the bird's attitude by consistently saying only polite words, playing soft music and anything else he could think of to "clean up" the bird's vocabulary. Finally, John was fed up and he yelled at the parrot. The parrot yelled back. John shook the parrot and the parrot got angrier and even ruder. John, in desperation, threw up his hand, grabbed the bird and stuck him in the freezer. For a few minutes the parrot squawked and kicked and screamed. Then suddenly there was total quiet. Not a peep was heard for over a minute. Fearing that he'd hurt the parrot, John quickly opened the door to the freezer. The parrot calmly stepped out onto John's outstretched arm and said, "I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. I'm sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate transgressions, and I fully intend to do everything I can to correct my rude and unforgivable behavior." John was stunned at the change in the bird's attitude. As he was about to ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behavior, the bird continued, "May I ask what the turkey did?"
If by weird you mean that I don't have a problem with a politician supporting a local business or taking an interview there instead of hiding behind handlers and making sure the lighting is correct before an interview then ya I'm weird. Honesty and integrity are weird character traits in today's political environment. Our newly elected regurgitation of the Clinton administration probably doesn't own a pair of shoes that would be fit to wear to a turkey farm. He would be more worried about what the effects of killing turkeys would have on his approval rating.
Or you could simply turn the camera slightly to the side, and avoid the animal slaughter. This doesn't seem like rocket science, but what do I know.
Stupid? So... let me get this straight, you think she called some reporters and said "meet me at the turkey farm I want you to ask me some random questions with a backdrop of turkey killing"? You don't think that maybe the local reporters don't have a lot of better stories to cover than what Palin is up to, and they might follow her around like puppies trying to get an interview any way they can? You tell me which idea is more plausible.
That's the cameraman's call. Apart from the gory stuff, it seems like pretty poor framing to have someone doing other distracting stuff so clearly in your shot. But I suppose it's a mark of improvement that she does an interview and this time it's not her words that freak people out. Go go Sarah.
No he didn't mean weird - he meant stupid and gullible. Essentially yes. Are you aware of the way politics are conducted these days, and that politicians have press secretaries who arrange these type of things? I guarantee you this was cooredinated. Your 'strolling around in front of a turkey slaughterhouse with a latte when surprised by camera crew!" excuse is so laughable I have to use nasty words like "stupid" when describing you. Again - she just happened to be walking in front of a turkey slaughterhouse with a latte, like ANY governor would, and the reporters just followed her there and happened to capture reality. Got it.
She doesn't care. What is funny is that all the Obamabots don't understand that. Reporter: Sara could I get a quick interview? Sara: Sure Reporter: Do you want to do it here? Sara: Sure end of story... unless you are obsessed with attacking her, then its big news.
