Sarah Palin plays the "pussy" card.
by8ackgr0und N015e

...Where did Palin decide to drop this turd in the public punch bowl? At an event for special needs kids. Now, isn't that special?

Sarah Palin is bashing President Obama's decision not to release Osama Bin Laden's death photos, comparing it to holding back his birth certificate.

In a speech in Alabama, the Tea Party darling said denying the world a look at the ghoulish photos of the Al Qaeda chief was akin to "pussy-footing around."

"Don't do kind of that birth certificate whole mocking of Americans for asking for it," Palin said in a speech in Point Clear, Ala., hours before Obama put the kibosh on releasing the photos.

1. I noticed that also
I'm sure she knew that word would rankle Dems, since it used to be, at least back in the day, a derogatory term for a man.

9. Since when is pussyfooting a derogatory term for a man?
It means tiptoeing around an issue. She didn't call him a pussy - that's a completely different slang term derivived from a completely different place. Isn't it?

11. You're right, she said pussyfooting.
*shrugs* From my era and geographical location (the USA South), even that word was an insult. As another poster said, I'm glad Obama ignores her. She's an idiot and a grifter.

4. Who gives a shit what she says?
President Obama is the commandeer in chief and it is his call on what to do and she is
a half term former governor grifter who couldn't name a single newspaper.

6. First used against another politician
VP Charles Warren Fairbanks in 1903. Its etymology has more to do with cats that with cowardice.

8. It's in the dictionary
The "pussy" part refers to stealthy like a cat, not female genitalia. It's a perfectly legit word to use in the right context, and she appeared to use it in the correct context. I'm certainly no Palin fan, but this is nit-picking, IMO.

14. Why Sarah.
Why you need to see this photo? You wouldn't believe it anyway.

The President said "No." Now go back to room.

21. she needed the word "stupid" or "racist" before the word "Americans"
in her statement. Only then would it make sense.

29. Please don't smack her down too hard
We need the morons in the Tea Party to get her nominated for 2012, that'll be the ultimate end to her career. I've already registered as a republican just to vote absentee for her in the primary next year. :)

Edited on Thu May-05-11 10:53 AM by tinymontgomery
like what was done to trump. She connected the birth certificate with the picture, she looking for SN to make jokes about her so she can get made and make the papers again and state how she is getting picked on.


Edited for spelling.

38. Read the comments for the NYDN story...
Read the actual story, they printed this story just to make her look terrible. (again) The Daily News is preaching to the choir in NYC since the comments read like the other replies in this thread. WE HATE HER IN NY!!!! Every fact given just makes The Grifter ever clearer to all... I got bored after 4 pages of comments that looked like I wrote them... Not good for Goofy!!!
