Palin's next move: Blame the writers who wrote her commentary about "blood libel"
It's going to happen.

Anyone knows she didn't write the comments that were released today. It was probably Laura Ingraham, some of William Kristol's buddies and perhaps some Murdoch staffers. She didn't really even know what "blood libel" means. She just read the teleprompter (which you can see reflecting in the video).

Now, after many were insulted by "her" speech, the video was pulled down.

Since she can do no wrong, it was somebody else's fault. She's going to say her writers set her up.

:rofl:

1. No, it was the evil teleprompter
She will likely blame the teleprompter for causing her to use this stupid phrase.

14. It was obviously a teleprompter malfunction.

She'd meant to say bloody lib'rul. Easy mistake to make.

2. The entire speech was horrible. But yeah...she'll throw them under a bus.
People are now calling for her to apologize. When will that happen?

3. She won't admit she has writers, even to blame them.
It's all the media's fault, naturally.

7. You got that right!
She can't admit that she has others do her writing for her, so as you said, she will have to blame the "lame stream media" for not "UNDERSTANDING" what she really meant to say! Damned media! :evilgrin:

If she had half a brain, or even a quarter, she would have simply came out and said she carried things to far with the scope sights on the map, and would have shown concern over those who lost friends and family in this tragedy. It should have been short with no attacks, or trying to paint herself as the "victim" in this tragedy. Whoever told her to come out with this kind of a speech is either a moron, or they are working for Karl Rove, and are trying to take her down before the republican primaries.

5. I bet she doesn't back down an inch. If anything, she'll just attack more
criticizing those who "twisted" her words or some such.

11. I just looked and its not down. I think the report that it was taken down were mistaken
I saw another report that it was just a broken link that was quickly fixed.

6. She did blame a "contractor" for the "surveyor symbols" in her target map
It'll be par the course. Some leader. Quits midstream, spends other peoples money wildly, incites hate/fear and never ever takes responsibility.

9. Maybe whoever writes her speeches and does her website is...
A progressive very cleverly taking her down. Her response to the hate mail she's been getting is probably getting her an even greater amount of hate mail.

She probably thought that after her speech everyone would stop talking about her map...but it's been shown and talked about constantly since...LOL!!

17. I think she does know.
The first time I became familiar with the phrase was from my fundie neighbor when I was a teenager. She explained matter-of-factly to me how Jews in the old days would steal Christian babies and murder them to use their blood in their Hebrew rituals.

20. I keep reading that the video was pulled, but every time I check its still there
If it was ever down, it was for a short period at most.
