“How dare they boo Piper!”

[Maine-ah]

sorry the link is from Fux, but, there is a very important quote in it.

"A carpet was laid down and Palin, dressed in a beige trench, walked on to the ice joined by her daughters Willow and Piper. The GOP Vice-Presidential nominee said at an earlier fundraiser that she would stop some of the booing from the rowdy Philadelphia fans by putting her seven year old daughter, Piper in a Flyers jersey. She said, “How dare they boo Piper!”

nothing like using your kid for a political prop.


on edit:

someone get a screen shot of that, please.

[patrice]

1. Some people think they own their children.

[Skittles]

2. she uses a Downs baby as a political prop

her seven year old is probably used to it

[Colobo]

3. The woman pimps her children.

[Erin Elizabeth]

4. That doesn't even make sense, anyway.

If anything it just PROVES they were booing SARAH. Because who would boo a seven year old in the HOME TEAM'S JERSEY?

No one. There's no reason to.

But Palin herself? Yeah. So that's a weirdo argument anyway. Nice using your kid as a prop again. I swear to God when this woman is sent packing to Alaska I NEVER WANT TO SEE HER OR HEAR FROM HER AGAIN. God. Just fuck right the hell off, bitch.

[Skip Intro]

5. Why that doesn't work - who are "they" - ?

It wasn't Obama and family that booed.

It wasn't Pelosi or Dodd or Clinton.

It was the people of that city.

The voters of that city.

They are the "they" to whom palin refers.

They, sarah, are the one's from whom you seek employment.

They, sarah, have reached a decision.

[Two Americas]

26. right

The article at the link says "the crowd in this staunchly Democratic city..."

If it is anything like the crowd at the Joe in Detroit for Wings games, the vast majority of the people in the seats are from the Republican voting suburbs.

[Blue Diadem]

6. She's such a twit.

What would ever make her think that they wouldn't boo because Piper was wearing the jersey? Cripes..they were booing her ass, it had nothing to do with her kids. What a POS to use her child like that.

[progressiveforever]

If I were Palin, I'd storm out of Pennsylvania and flip them the bird

That would show them!

[SwampG8r]

10. thanks

[progressiveforever]

7. If I were Palin, I'd storm out of Pennsylvania and flip them the bird

That would show them!

[SwampG8r]

9. you can say that again!

[Phredicles]

8. No matter what she says, she wasn't using Piper as a shield against booing,

she was using her as a shield against getting stuff thrown at her. She's a dickhead, but so's the Flyers' owner.

[Retrograde]

11. so why aren't the kids in school?

Where they belong? I take it this won't be the "education" vice presidency.

[MichaelHarris]

12. Where's the knocked-up one?

I never understood why she just didn't tell everyone Jesus knocked her daughter up. Conservatives would have believed that.

[SDJay]

13. Except Hannity, as he would've hated the fact that

1. Someone besides him had any sort of carnal knowledge of his queen; and
2. Her kid would be half Jewish.

As Gibbs established this week, Hannity is a known anti-Semite. That's what I'm going with, anyway - I've got no problem hurling a taste of that POS's own medicine at him.

I was wondering where the knocked up one was as well, actually. Methinks she's been put in charge of the youngest kid.

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

14. Why are they not back in Alaska for school?!?!?!?!

[SDJay]

16. Mommy didn't need no skoolin or book lernin...

and look at how far she's come. Skool is for loosers. You wind up black and liberal, like that one.

[lumberjack_jeff]

15. Nothing says Republican like a human shield. n/t

[Democat]

17. She is such and egomaniac - the crowd wasn't booing her, but her kid?

She must have a huge ego and a twisted mind to think that no one was booing her, instead they were booing her kid.

[Maine-ah]

32. no, go back and read the article

she said this before the game.

[sniffa]

18. How dare they boo my shield?

I knew I should have had her carry Trig.

[CoffeeCat]

21. I was really surprised that Palin didn't ice skate...

...on out there--holding onto Trig with one hand and juggling
the other two with her free hand.

[az chela]

19. Those kids should be taken away from her

[CoffeeCat]

20. Don't mind flighty Sarah....

...She's so used to being surrounded by salivating sycophants at those rallies of hate and venom.

She doesn't understand what is happening, when the real America comes
out to greet her.

When you hang with the wackiest, wingnuttiest 10 percent of the Republican party--for too long--reality
becomes a distant memory.

[johnaries]

22. I missed that name. Piper, like in Piper Cub -

the airplanes they shoot wolves and bears from in Alaska. Disgusting.

[Blondiegrrl]

23. Jesus, what a miserable excuse for a parent.

I would NEVER do that to my child. NOT EVER.

If someone shot at her, she'd probably duck behind the kid.

Miserable wench.

[JCMach1]

24. kids don't belong at a hockey rink!

:wtf:

[Two Americas]

25. hockey fans

Hockey fans booing Palin, even though her daughter was with her in a Flyers jersey...

The McCain-Palin ticket is in big trouble.

[AzNick]

27. How dare you name a child "piper" you dumbass

What's up with those white trash names anyway? Bristol? Piper? Willow? Trig? WTF?!

Carlin got it right when he made fun of these stupid names that kids get these days like Todd, and Tiler and Cody...

[book_worm]

28. Hey Hockey Mom, how dare you expose Piper to that booing!

[BeyondGeography]

29. What a crap Mom she is

Putting the kid out there in the first place and then saying something that will make the girl feel like she's the one at fault. Asshole.

[Higher Standard]

30. How dare she use Piper as a human shield!

Sorry excuse for a parent to do something like that.

[JohnMcCant2008]

31. Will somebody please call Child Protective Services on this delusional bitch????

[stray cat]

33. Why does Sarah think so poorly of Piper that she assumes they were booing Piper and not her?

[Democat]

36. Why would anyone boo Palin?

She's a hockey mom maverick energy expert!

[LynneSin]

34. Guess what dingbat - they werent' booing your kids

You were stupid enough to bring them out there in a city that city (and surrounding states) that is overwhelmingly blue AND a city that has notoriously rude fans.

If that's the kind of dingbat decisions you're gonna make then I don't want you as my VP

[Riddler]

35. When Putin rears his head, will she hide behind her kids then, too?
