Matthews on Palin's "favorite founding father" answer: "how come she can't answer the most simple questions?"

Because she's an IDIOT Chris.

If she answered a question correctly then we wouldn't get to hear her say things like "they came collectively together" "so much diverse, collectively" And "George went back to his farm"

Pls don't deprive of us collectively of this nit wit (wink)

I like this comment I read yesterday on Media Matters from Woodstock:

In the real world:
beck to palin ,"Who's your favorite founden Father?"...
...palin, " Will glen, that is a good question, mmmmm,lets see... Franklin had a unique view on goverment , Jefferson was strong on civil rights... Addams,.. John or Sam..were good men mmm....Washinton.was a HERO of the War after all..I would have to say my favorite founder father , is Reagan,.... "He Rocked!!"

I'm sorry woodstock, i made a few little changes!

Even though I mocked her yesterday I almost feel like defending her on this one. I don't believe Palin is so dumb she has trouble naming a founding father. A second grader could do that. The other explanations I can think of is she's afraid of the media fallout if she says the wrong thing (according to either side-I used to work with a very right wing person who held Thomas Jefferson in absolute contempt because of his Bible) or Todd slaps her around when she says something stupid. OK just kidding on that one. Todd is obviously whipped.

Collectively together - sounds like communism to me ehhh beck?

Can pallin even read? Seems like she repeats the same stupid cliches over and over again just in different orders

Goodbye mama, now you can have ice cream in heavan! I'll see you again tonight when I go to bed in my head movies. But this head movie makes my eyes rain!

Was it on Hannity that Juan Williams got triple-teamed when he suggested that Sister Sarah would be unarmed in an open debate with Barak Hussein Obama? This is great! Let her have all the air time she wants. By the way Saturday Night Live should take them up on their offer to host the show. By the time the two of them have formed a coherent sentence the show will be over.

Did anybody catch that Beck replied "Bull cr*p" to Palin saying "All of them"? Check it out.

Seems to me it just shows that Fox will likely soon regret hiring this woman and will need to keep her on a tight leash!

Listening to Sarah Palin is like playing Mad Libs, like we did in third grade. Insert a polical term here, and a famouns name there. The words are all inthe dictionary, but Palin's sentences make no sense.

Washington was a good ( not great) general, who was -at the time that a first President was needed - riding a great wave of popularity The actualy founding fathers knew that his men respected him, and that would be conveyed to communities all over the colonies.

Washington was not a statesman, at all. He was nto at all well travelled. The statesmen of the bunh were Franklin and Jefferson, who were known around the world. Adams would be next in that category.

Washington did not 'give power back ot the people". In fact, he originally was against the notion of an acutal term, preferring a President for life type arrangement. It is true that he later led the charge to limit Presidential terms. But not at all times. Furthermore, it was Jefferson, Madison, and Adams who framed both the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.

Hamilton and Sam Adams were amongst the early Federalists, and thos ewho put their proverbial money where their mouths were when it came to fighting for freedom. One should probably add Thomas Paine and John Jay to the list of early pioneers of democracy.

Washington returned very little 'to the people'. He owned slaves prior to, and subsequent to, his presidency.

While Washington was President of the 1787 Constitutional Convention, he had no role whatsoever in the framing of the philosophy or the document itself.

The founding fathers can never be described as a diverse group. All were part of the landed class - as close to aristocracy as was available in America at the time.

The founding fathers rarely 'came together' as Palin asserts. It was exceedingly rare, before 1787, that any more than 10 or 15 would ever be in the same room. Many of the stars, in fact ( Franklin, Adams, Jefferson and Hamilton) were frequently overseas for extended periods of time, building bridges with the French and Dutch.


Ultimately, every participle oput of Palin's mouth was incorrect. And those, fromthe Right, who assert that she was being careful nto to offend are the exact reason that America is failing. How can there be a bad answer ( other than the one Palin gave) to the answer of which founding father is a personal favorite?

Simple questions are even too simple for Sarah Simpleton.

For a person who has a Journalism degree, she seems to exhibit a lack of education and intelligence. I'll bet she used her "Dirty Mom" wink to get through college.

Just an amazing room full of stupid she represents....

Matthews on Palin's "favorite founding father" answer: "how come she can't answer the most simple questions?"

Because she is a dunce:

Because she doesn't KNOW THE ANSWERS, Chris. She couldn't even remember Joe Biden's NAME during the debate. She actually did call him "Mr. O'Biden" on one occasion because I heard her. The airspace those Russian airplanes was flying through was between her ears.

Matthews on Palin's "favorite founding father" answer: "how come she can't answer the most simple questions?"

Because she has the most simple mind.
