Apparently we have righteous indignance here on issues of fairness and balance that is itself not fair and balanced. Irony, that.

Well I guess when you did your RANT on OBAMA using a telepromter in front of a 6th grade class it made things fair and balanced......Oh wait, maybe I'm wrong, I guess maybe that was someone else. Well at least you pointed out OBAMA"S George Bush type moment, when he over and over mispronouced Corpsman (Corpseman)...... that was you...right? Gee ……..isn’t that special!!!

It's her presentation. So enough with the "poor Palin, everybody is against her " why ?? because she is so beautiful and righteous??? I'm none violent ,and I want to smack the woman... We all use notes in order to stay the course when giving a speech, keep the train of thought, stick to the talking points.... and the President , CEO's, along with presenters at Awards Shows, use teleprompters...we get it. The point is she is insulting..and hateful ...If there is a God ...and a "Big Book" I hope she gets what she truly deserves. Chris…it isn’t about the crib notes…it’s about her arrogance.
