Palin: "I've been hearing about his (Biden) senate speeches since I was in like 2nd grade"

http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2008/09/29/politics/fromtheroad/entry4486293.shtml

(COLUMBUS, OHIO) - Though candidates typically try to lower expectations in advance of debates, Sarah Palin indicated that she would deliver a stronger than expected performance at Thursday’s showdown with Joe Biden.

“I've never met him before, but I've been hearing about his senate speeches since I was in like 2nd grade,” Palin said at a rally here with John McCain.

“I have to admit though, he is a great debater and looks pretty doggone confident like he's sure he's gonna win, but then again, this is the same Senator Biden who said the other day that the University of Delaware would trounce the Ohio State Buckeyes. Wrong!”

Palin was referring to a comment Biden made almost two weeks ago, in which the Delaware senator notified members of the University of Delaware football team that he “told the folks in Ohio that we’d kick Ohio State’s ass!”

17. Well, like dude, she's totally charged to the max about having her finger on the nukular weapons
it's just SOOOOO MUCH EASIER to bag Caribou with nukular weapons. Forget chopper hunting - if she's veep she can just use the google to find supper and call up SDI.

27. Does she REALLY want to go there?
I mean, Biden was born when McCain was in, like, 1st grade

Biden: Born 1942

McChicken: Born 1936

:eyes: She's an idiot

3. Yes, because cheering on your home-state football team is so like a national debate.
Yep. She's ready. Looks like "debate camp" is going well for her.

13. If I'm doing math correctly, that would make her 9 years old in second grade
he was elected in 1972- she is 44 years old- and he would have taken office in early 1973.

aren't most kids only 7 in second grade?

14. She's such a liar. She never heard of Joe Biden before she was chosen by McCain.
She's as dumb as a stump and ignorant.

16. Like, what a fucking liar....
Palin was born in 1964. She would have entered 2nd grade in 1971. Biden didn't become a Senator until January of 1973, and I doubt she heard anything about his damned speeches before he started making them.

She's such a, like, piece of shit.

21. Hate to say it, but she IS improving.
In previous interviews, she evidently could not complete s thought or a real sentence.
She has graduated to stupid thoughts and sentences, but some improvement is indicated.

Considering where she started, she may win "Most Improved" to go with "Miss Congeniality".

My wife wants to watch the VP debate, but I don't know if I can stand to see Palin for such a long period. Maybe we'll DVR it so we can turn it off at will.

Edited on Mon Sep-29-08 12:44 PM by wienerdoggie
know anything about a Democratic Senator's speeches in Delaware? Does a second grader know what a Senator is? Has she spent her childhood scanning the papers to read about that famous Joe Biden and his awesome speechifying, while the other girls were into Shaun Cassidy and Donny Osmond?

30. I know a lot of incredibly bright second-graders, and I can assure this idiotic woman
that NONE of them were even remotely interested in a Senator's speeches, or in Presidential d ebates!!

She is sooo unbelievable.

31. Ah Bible Spice
you're within shrieking distance from menopause and a couple months away from grandmotherhood. Imitating a 17 year old Valley Girl is neither smart nor attractive.

However, considering you were 10 years old and still in 2nd grade might explain the stupid factor.

Speaking of stupid, neither is it very smart to being up candidates' ages. In case you haven't notice, McGrampy remembers FDR's fireside chats or at least once he did.
