Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said she will attend Alfalfa Club Dinner because of President Obama

[Are_grits_groceries]

Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said she will attend an exclusive club dinner in Washington this weekend because it will offer her an audience with President Obama.

In an impromptu meeting with reporters Wednesday outside the governor's mansion, Palin also detailed reasons why she's started her own political action committee and laughed off suggestions that she's in line for an $11 million book deal.

Palin said she is participating in outside events, like this weekend's Alfalfa Club dinner, strictly to promote Alaska's interests as its governor.

"The Alfalfa dinner, yes, in fact that's because President Obama is scheduled to be there," Palin said. "And how often will I have an opportunity to have dinner with the president? I will take up that offer to do so."

According to Politico, both Obama and Palin will address the crowd.

She'll be pallin' around with some who was pallin' around with terrarists. I hope Obama speaks last. People won't be able to drive after she scrambles their brains with her syntax.

1. Jesus! Her Grammar!

9. It's just her "Stream of Unconsciousness"

She tried reading James Joyce but it wasn't about her so she went to sleep.
:shrug:

13. I think she learned English

with Rosetta Stone using a DJ remix.

26. Fantastic!

My wife is a stream of consciousness speaker. I call her James Joyce all the time, and she knows it, understands it, and is ok with it.

Sara, on the other hand, wouldn't even know who Joyce was.

28. (grin) Those of us who 'speak our minds' with candor, in 'real time,' ...

... appreciate the difference. (I send my greetings to your Molly Bloom.) :hi:

It's not so much that Sara is speaking her mind as it is that she's spewing verbal crap and then, like a cat in a litter box, kicks random bits of verbal sand and dried crap all over it.

27. lolol

31. When I read anything Palin has said,

I find that it is sooooooo much easier to understand ee cummings.
After I read anything she said or hear her speak, I get out my
volume of ee cummings poems to staighten my mind out. Joyce would
work too.

3. Dining with the president and noshing at the Alfalfa Club? Sounds kinda elitist and insiderish, if

you're asking me.

[AspenRose]

4. "...impromptu meeting with reporters Wednesday outside the governor's mansion..."

Nothing this woman does with the press is "impromptu."

She needs to go away, but since she won't do that gracefully, the press needs to start ignoring her.

[monmouth]

5. Will the fringey freepers be upset???......n/t

[Subdivisions]

6. Talkiing about on MSNBC right now. Looks like we're stuck with the MSM's

enamoured coverage of Palin from now on.

[rurallib]

7. Couple questions - do Alaska taxpayers pay for this little junket?

And will she be put on the 'no-fly' list for associating with terrists? (per her assessment of Obama).
BTW is this dinner named after Alfalfa from the 'Our Gang' comedies?

[TlalocW]

8. When is her term as governor up?

Do they have term limits in Alaska? Is she eligible to run again?

14. I think 2010

I will be sending money to her opponent because I want that bitch to go down.

[global1]

10. Who Is Backing Palin.....

who gave her the idea for a PAC? Who is continually pushing her into the spotlight? She is not smart enough to think all this through on her own. Somebody in the Repug Party has got her back - WHO?

29. Please see my post from last night here

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=4933674&mesg_id=4933674

There's more to this DC junket than attending the dinner. She's meeting with her money man. I think the Neocons are pumping her up and the religious nuts.

[madinmaryland]

11. I thought "real americans" would not eat a place called the Alfalfa Club.

:shrug:

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

12. This gave her a segment on The Today Show this AM. She will not go away.

:puke:

[tridim]

15. Do Alaskans care that their Governor doesn't ever seem to work?

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

20. I don't think most of Alaska even needs a governor

[Blue_In_AK]

30. Yes, we care.

Even the legislature is starting to get peeved with her now. Please see Andrew Halcro's blog entry from yesterday here: http://www.andrewhalcro.com/palins_ms_pac-man_hard_to_swallow

16. She will be the GOP nominee in 2012

:rofl:

17. Sarah get that fuel/food disaster fixed for her Native constituents yet?

Since Palin will once again be in the spotlight, THIS subject should be in her face and in the spotlight also.
Merge her disaster as Gov with her dance across the National stage.
What's she done about this issue in her home state lately? Hoping for an early spring so it goes away by itself?

-----------
I also wonder who is doing Palin's promo work for her.
Cripes sake she is like an untreatable disease.

[hamsterjill]

18. Will she apologize to Obama?

If and when she gets an audience with him? For the lies she spewed about him during the campaign?

I'm sorry, but she is one crazy bitch!

[lunatica]

19. She's a Combo Pandora's Box and Can of Worms, there ya betcha also.

McCain has unleashed the deepest pit of miserable burning hell on the world by giving this woman that fucken inch! She's like the Terminator in the movies who won't stop and won't die.

[Gin]

21. God...I hope they don't pick her and ask her to make a speech...

From Wikipedia on the Alfalfa Club.......

One of the evening's activities includes the playful nomination of a presidential candidate by the Club's leadership. The candidate is then required to make a speech.

[lunatica]

25. If she absolutely won't go away then let's hope they do pick her

The more the public has to listen to her horrible screeching tone of voice and point-missing verbal eruptions the more it'll feel like fingernails on a blackboard.

[treestar]

22. She manages to get herself in the news on a daily basis

It is also painful too.

[lunatica]

23. I hope she has to say the words, "Mr. President"

And when she talks to Joe Biden, I hope she has to say, "Mr. Vice President"

We know for sure that she'll mangle whatever she says.

there must be some syndrome, some brain malfunction or deterioration or some synaptic back firing and disequilibrium in people like Bush and Palin's brains because they just aren't human.

[nc4bo]

24. Doesn't Sarah have a state to govern? Last I heard some of Alaskans are

having a mighty difficult time just surviving.

[Stevenmarc]

32. She figured that if she went to the Alfalfa Club Dinner

she would be invited to the Spanky and Buckwheat Club Dinner

[TwilightGardener]

33. Remember when she said Obama would "lower the prestige of the White House"?

Wonder if she'll address her concerns about that with him?
