What Is Palin Afraid Of?

palin4.jpg

Is she in over her head?

The McCain campaign is was very reluctant to allow reporters to cover Sarah Palin's meetings with foreign dignitaries this week.

The world's big wigs are in New York at the United Nations.

Johnny McCain and his peeps scheduled sessions and meetings for the lipstick wearing pitbull so she could get in some foreign affairs experience.

(Palin has never met a foreign head of state and first traveled outside North America just last year.)

The McCain camp only changed their tune after reporters protested loudly.

Are the McCain folks uneasy about Sarah's skills and afraid of what she'll say?

We're sensing that!

Reporters missed out on Palin's meeting with Afghan President Hamid Karzai, but they will be there for her audience with the Colombian President Alvaro Uribe and former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger.

Can't wait to see the reports!

      Would you let the press in if you were her? REALLY? The majority of the press leans left and they are going to be looking to twist and exploit any way they can so they can get "Breaking News". I don't think she is afraid of anything - I think she is smart and doesn't want the media circus or the leftist media spin.

      Even the McCain knows she is not ready for a Federal office. That is why they have built a huge wall around her. They are scared shitless of what she will say!

      Oh man….I hope she's been prepped well. If not, yikes…..

      McCain is just making sure the public doesn't see how incompetent she is when meeting with these foreign officials! Just another tactic by the McCain camp. How stupid do they think the Americam people are?! We are well aware she is just a political pick and she is not qualified for the VP job!!!!

    20. 20

      it is ABOUT TIME that stupid fucking bitch opened up to PUBLIC SCRUTINY (even if it *does* incl the 'biased' media)… if she can't stand up to msnbc or biden, how can she look us in the eye and claim that she 'won't blink' in the face of powerful, foreign leaders (…whom she has never met)?!?



    21. 21

      if anyone is communist its the liberal party….what a stupid pic perez…



    22. 22

      Dude, get off Obama's di ck already! Where is your article making fun of Joe Biden for saying FDR went on TV after the Great Depression in 1929?? FDR wasn't even the prez in 1929, and TV wasn't invented until years later! At least be proud to be stumping for Obama, don't pretend to be impartial because you are making a fool out of yourself!



    23. 23

      I can't help but wonder how life would be if, rather than besmirching & tearing down people, not matter than political or personal beliefs, we actually attemped to uplift and encourage people.

    26. 26

      Gee, I wonder why on earth the liberally slanted media isn't being allowed to go interviews Palin, cause they've been NOTHING but unbiased so far. And since ALL of them are so bent on keeping with their journalistic intergrity, it's hard to see why they're NOT being allowed in.

      Oh thats creative. Your so stupid Perez. Not to be mean BUT obama was a COMMUNITY ORGANIZER. HELLO. NO FOREIGN RELATIONS>>>>>>>
      Not that I would trust either one of them BUT obamas foreign relationships have been dressing with MUSLIMS THAT HATE AMERICA. VOTE OBAMA AND SEE DESTRUCTION. He would never stick up for us. He thinks he can make "peace" with other countries. HE DOES NOT WANT US TO PRODUCE ANY nuclear weapons…why? SO we can BE a WEAK country? We have ALWAYS been the big brother protecting OTHER countries. Hes a dumb F*CK!



    28. 28

      "Palin has never met a foreign head of state and first traveled outside North America just last year." And that was to Canada… lmao!!! You are going to lead the most powerful nation of the world and your definition of the world has a definition of a 60 miles radio around your house. This woman is a joke for everyone on earth and still can't believe people support her.



    29. 29

      why is this filed under Hillary Clinton?



    30. 30

      No worries, no fear there. Remember kids, Sarah Palin is NOT running for President. Maybe Barry's camp should do the same and muzzle Biden. He keeps opening his mouth and saying things that apparently aren't making Barry too happy.



    31. 31

      Re: WakeUpPeople – Having seen several of the comments you've posted on several of these posts, it's kinda funny to see how completely uneducated you are. It's not the majority of American's who agree with Obama and his views, or he would be ridiculously ahead in the polls. The polls are slanted FOR Obama, and he STILL isn't able to pull ahead.



    32. 32

      perez, lay off a lil



    33. 33

      Re: dogmanx23
      Really? Do you honestly believe she is a moron? Would you debate her? Why all the hate when you don't agree with someone? Criticize her for an actual issue you have with her politics or core values. Name calling is really not effective. In truth, Palin, McCain, Biden and Obama are all highly intelligent, civil servants and I think we should be proud to be in a country where such diversity ends up on political tickets. It took a long time to get here and we should revel in it, not tear the other side down on nonsense.



    34. 34

      Perez, dear, you may or may not know, but Obama is not open to the press either. He rarely gives press conferences nor does he speak often to the media flying all over the country with him. But the Obama-lovin' MSM gives him a pass and pretends like
      Barack is one with the people.
      .
      You keep beating up on Palin and it will only help her into office. People see through the bias media.

    37. 37

      Anyone interested in the future of this country should read the article on her in this month's Rolling Stone. I won't spoil it, but the gist of the article is: Americans have become so fucking lazy and apathetic to whom they pick as their leaders that this crazy bitch with no qualifications actually looks good because "she's one of us." So sad.

      38

      Because people like you will twist and turn her every word no matter what. Why don't you cover the dumbass comments Joe Biden has been making lately?? Those are very entertaining, I assure you. If Sarah Palin asked a man in a wheelchair to stand up in front of a crowd you would sure be all over that. How about Biden saying Barack was wrong for running the McCain doesn't use a computer ad..(he can't because of his war wounds)…or the emerging details of Obama's relationship with crooks.

      Just because Obama took all 3 news anchors with him to Europe/Middle East on his publicity tour doesn't mean you have to have the media at every turn to "prove foreign policy experience". We all know the cameras had to catch every second of Obama's little trip so they could have sound bites and video clips to show for the months leading up to the election to convince those-like you-that take snapshots and not fact, to try to prove his 'experience'.



    39. 39

      Re: erhg74 – Was not making a political statement. We are all so divided, and continue to perpetuate that condition - even though it destroys us. Just figured that if we (being humans in general, not you and I, per se), could find a way to compromise, to support, to encourage, rather than divide, slander & undermine . . . well, perhaps we'd all be better off for it.

    51. 51

      Whatever Creative One. You're first and you're the first to say the stupidest crap on the comment section. If anything, you're supposed to allow the press in because you want them to see how you're able to meet with these dignitaries. Why would you need to hide? Why just allow the cameras? Photo op? Of course and that's why the McCant campaign were so uneasy about this dingbat meeting with these U.N. folks without them. Duh



    52. 52

      I've seen this picture done with Obama. I think it's more fitting with him in it.



    53. 53

      this is called PROPAGANDA. false, mean, unethical propaganda. it's easy to pick on her just because being a conservative means she's not one of the "cool" kids. but instead of being an ignorant playground bully, how about putting time and thought into this election instead of just jumping on the celebrity bandwagon? support obama if that's your man, but let's talk about real issues not sensational bullsh*t that you've essentially made up.



    54. 54

      I'll bet Obama has skeletons in his closet but all the liberal minded assholes want to bitch about McCain and Palin. Is that to divert our attention away from Obama's skeltons? Getting sick of all the mud-slinging.



    55. 55

      HELLO PEOPLE!!!! Obama didn't allow the press in when he was abroad meeting with foreign leaders a couple months ago and now you are fucking complaining. Maybe some duties shouldn't have anything to do with us or the press and should be private!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



    56. 56

      Good graphic, Perez…coulda used a swastika or two to express your true feelings. By the way, does Obamama's dealings buying coke count as "Rich, Productive Negotiations with a South American Regime"? And the pot, that counts as "Trading Agricultural Goods with Panama", right? Damn, I guess the lying,inexperienced douche OBAMAMA DOES have loads of experience!

      Nov 4th is aorund the corner, w/ knowing so little of this candidate the training wheels need to come off. According to her "she's ready" well America, let her prove it. Why do we need to handle the pitbull w/ kidgloves, The McCain cam makes it worse by andling her in the manner they do. We the people need to know if she's worthy of being a heartbeat, 4 bouts of cancer and two assassination attempts of being President.

      OK people-we already had a prez that you can have a beer with…WAKE UP!
      They work for us!We have the right to hear what they think. McCain is already acting like a dumb shit with the bottom falling out of our economy. Deregulations, Keating 5, fire the head of the SEC (shows he doesn't know what he's talking about, knee jerk reaction!).

I am far from convinced. That coming from someone who actually lives in Illinois and has been familiar with Obama since before his introduction to the USA back in 2004. I feel I know him well enough to just say nObama.

      Re: Melissa is always right
      Well As I have said to you before I have more faith in Obama doing things and getting it done NOT hot tempered McCain. Obama NEVER ran on "experience" he has ALWAYS run on change and hope and he has the FORESIGHT to put things on track. Everything that Obama has suggested is NOW being implemented by the Bush admin… and Obama was correct in saying no to Iraq. Lastly, I too am from IL as you know and live in Hyde Park and I think that you never had intentions of giving Obama ANY real chance. As u posted on another thread "always 'right' stood for "Right wing" so there was no way you even entertained voting for him. That's my opinion.

      What is sad a/b what is being done w/ Obama are the HALF quotes and HALF truths that are rampant and often posted on this site. The 50 Obama lies that circulate also make me laugh. The double standard against his wife is ridiculous and lastly, we had 20-21 months to make up our minds on Obama. I've read more PERSONAL attacks than facts on the man and it is disgusting. Calling his wife a gorilla & criticizing her for finally being Proud in her adult life of this country yet McCain gets away w/ saying he discovered LOVE for this country when forced to be a guest in another. Everyone harps on Rev. Wright and Rezko yet people are mum on Rod Parsley and Keating 5. I'd rather lose a campaign than lose a war… yeah sure, I believe Sen. McCain ;)

      she's too stupid and weak to handle the press right now. they have to finish programming her for VP 101.



    89. 89

      Boy- you don't get it. She is busy- and according to the media- even the ones that aren't in her corner, have been impressed. And she DID give a snippet- but she is mostly running for VP which means she SUPPORTS her ticket. Unlike Biden- who has made gaffe after gaffe after gaffe. He made fun of McCain's inability to use a keyboard due to his war injuries in an attack ad, said Clinton would have done a better job, said dems oppose clean coal (obama does NOT oppose it), asked a wheelchair bound politician to STAND UP and be patriotic, agreed with McCain on the bailout, and there is much more to come. Pick on Palin if you will- but yakkity Joe Biden was the biggest mistake Obama made- after his mistake of choosing to run at all before he cleaned out his own closet.

      Re: MINXLIVES #83 – You being from Hyde Park should know then that Barry became a State Legislator in 1996. I first voted in 1992 and since then I have followed politics closely, especially in Illinois. Voted strictly Democrat until 2004; the corruptness in our fair state was one of the factors in the decision to change. So no, I did NOT vote for Barry in 2004 but knew full well who he was and what he contributed to the State prior to making that decision. My name is "Melissa is always right". Not "Melissa has always been right". ;-)

      COLOMBIA BABY. ID ONT SEE BARACK HAVING A MEETING WITH PRESIDENT URIBE. WELL THATS BC HE DOESNT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT COLOMBIA ND MCCAIN DOES. AND TO ME THAT MATTERS. well because i am colombian haha.



    92. 92

      Watch this next week. The debates!! It should be very interesting to watch.
      Can someone remind me though, how much experience in foreign affairs Clinton had when he was at the TOP of the ticket?? Well, he had more than Obama. But not much more. And most Dems would say Clinton did a good job. Most VP's aren't as versed on the foreign policy as the top of the ticket.
      I see a lot of Dems shaking in their boots, but not because of lack of experince on Palin's part, though that is what they are trying to turn everyone's attention towards. The reality is the lack of experince on their top ticket. Not to say he could not do a good job once elected. They have teams of people around them giving them all the answers…even Obama.



    93. 93

      Media spinning or not ..limiting access to the press keeping secrets. Any of this sound familiar. McCain shows even more how closely his administration will resemble President Bush.

      Well Corruption in any political system is not new. If we had an ethics and morals barometer for our candidates we'd have to dismiss 99.9% of gov't. So are you saying you voted for Clinton, then Gore then Bush? As for corruption specifically in Chicago, Barack has never made any serious mis- steps in comparison to his political counterparts on the national landscape. He has done everything he has said he would do and since you state he made promises to Collinsville please cite the promises and where he didn't deliver cite a local paper or something b/c that has not been the case here and Obama b/came a rising star on the political scene in 2004. Needless to say you broke from voting Democrat in 2004 via what voting in Bush? If you've voted Repub only once so far then your moniker is still a lie b/c you were not always Right and you made up your mind on voting repub long before Obama stepped into the hotbox to run for President. This would be better understood if you clarify state level vs. national level, congress vs. presidency b/c as it stands to me what you are posting makes no sense and I am baseing my train of thougt via ALL the posts I've read of yours on here and other threads.

Honestly, has nobody learned from the last eight years that you don't put people like Palin in or near the Oval Office? We're not voting for next door neighbor here for god's sake.

      Has anybody else noticed that all of our candidates (even the third party ones) really suck this go-around. Anybody? Anybody!?!
