Palin: 'Fine with me' to be called a 'redneck'
She's a politician, an author, cable news contributor and sought-after speaker. But perhaps former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is interested in a new title: comedienne.

In what can only be described as a bit of a schtick, Palin had some fun Friday with the notion that she and her family might be rednecks.

Speaking at the National Rifle Association's annual meeting in Charlotte, North Carolina, Palin claimed that some in the media have tried to portray members of the Tea Party movement as "violent or racist or rednecks."

"And I don't really have a problem with the redneck part of it, to tell you the truth. I don't," the former vice presidential candidate told the crowd. "That's fine with me."

Palin told the gun rights supporters how she recently searched online for the best redneck jokes to prepare for an appearance in Alabama where she was introduced by a radio personality named "Bubba."

12. A "grifter!" Perfect!
chiseler, defrauder, scammer, swindler, gouger..... these were some of the alternatives in the dictionary.
We still don't know how much she's paid to speak a the CSU, money that should go to students.

Man she's a smelly individual. Someday, years from now we'll watch the revealing movie,

25. Thanks but shouldn't there always be an adjective?
Like:

Stupid

Doofus

Moronic

Idiotic

Wet

Stumbling

Drunk

Sniveling

Wasted

Useless

Pointless

11. Palin really didn't need to search online for the best redneck joke...
All she had to do was stand in front of a mirror.

14. Who wrote that piece a shit article?
She's an "author"? A "comedienne"?

If she's an author, I'm Michaelfuckingangelo.

What a suckass piece of writing that is.

Oh, nevermind, I just noticed it's CNN. Just bidness as usual for them.

22. Still can't spit out a sensible sentence I see
She's a sick woman with what appears to be a personality disorder of some sort. Or maybe she's just an asshole. 'Fine with me' if she wants to be a redneck asshole.

32. No way in HELL is she a redneck
she's a "soccer mom" if you want to get into labels. Mid-40's white suburbanite. Just because she's from Alaska doesn't make her a redneck. Liking guns doesn't automatically make you a redneck.

No redneck wears clothing that expensive.

More pandering from one of the best panderers in US politics...
