Hoping to keep a "low profile" on her upcoming trip to Wisconsin, the one-time GOP vice presidential candidate decided to ban all press from covering her speech. She further issued an edict against cell phones, cameras, laptops and recording devices of any kind, CNN noted . During a radio interview, Wisconsin Democratic Party Chairman Mike Tate called the...
Palin Speech: No Phones, Laptops, Photos?
(CBS/PublicAffairs) Former Alaska Governor and 2008 GOP presidential candidate Sarah Palin will be speaking at an event hosted by the group Wisconsin Right to Life this evening. It is a closed event — which generally means no press. Amid apparent worries that the ex-Governor's words will be aired publicly despite that restriction, however, Wisconsin Right to Life and/or Palin's handlers are taking the notion of "closed" to a whole new level. Check out this list of prohibited items at the event...

-Going Rogue' Inspires Tina Fey to Bring Back Sarah Palin Spoof
November 6, 2009 (ChattahBox)—Sarah Palin’s soon to be released book, “Going Rogue” written at breakneck speed with the help of a ghost writer, is serving as an inspiration for comedian Tina Fey to reprise her hilarious impersonation of the former Governor of Alaska. Fey retired her signature beehive Palin wig, glasses and red business suit, after Palin lost her bid to become Vice President. But Palin’s new book is sure to provide new comedic material, and Fey may...

Petrified Palin bans phones, laptops, cameras from speech venue
Washington, Nov. 7 - ANI: Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin is so petrified of being misconstrued at an upcoming event that the organizers have banned phones, laptops and cameras at the venue. Hosted by the group Wisconsin Right to Life, the event is going to be a 'closed' event, which generally means no press. However, amid apparent worries that the ex-Governor's words will be aired publicly despite that restriction, organizers and Palin's aides have taken the notion of "closed" to a...

Palin's Speech
“My fellow Americans, tens of millions of you shared our convictions and gave us your votes. And I thank you for your confidence. For us, it was not our time . . . not our moment. But it is our country . . . the winner will be our president . . . and I wish Barack Obama well as the 44th president of the United States. If he governs America with the skill and grace we have often seen in him, and the greatness of which he is capable, we’re gonna be just fine. “And when a black...
Palin Warns Again of 'Rationed' Care
She didn't use the term "death panel," but Sarah Palin kept up her criticism of "rationed" Care for the elderly and disabled last night. In a speech to Abortion opponents, Palin warned that the same philosophy that allows Abortions could be applied to those two groups with dangerous consequences. Especially, she said, if Health Care reform puts a "panel of Bureaucrats" in charge, reports Politico .
New Commandment from Jesus: Thou Shall Not Photograph Sarah Palin
Tonight Sarah Palin, she of the folksy twang and fertile vagina lusted for by all of God’s children, otherwise known as “conservatives,” will deliver an address to some group of mouth-breathing Wisconsin people who hate Abortions and the spawn of Satan who have/perform them. In the course of her address, these aforementioned mouth-breathing Wisconsinites will surely want to put down their fried cheese curds and corn nuts, albeit only for a brief moment, to snap a photograph of...
Sarah Palin Keeping a Low Profile on Wisconsin Trip
Sarah Palin is apparently trying to skirt the spotlight on a trip to Wisconsin this week, CNN's Political Ticker reports . Palin has banned all media from her speech at a right-to-life event Friday night, and attendees will not be allowed to bring cellphones, cameras or other recording devices into the Milwaukee auditorium that will host the gathering. The speech comes just a week and a half before the release of Palin's highly anticipated Memoir, "Going Rogue," after which she will begin a...
Palin Channels Beck: PHOTO
Jonathan Martin snuck into the Palinfest in Wisconsin and reports that the crowd was not so wowed: While she drew applause during her remarks, Palin's extemporaneous and frequently discursive style was such that she never truly roused a true-believing crowd as passionate about the issue at hand as she. Not once during her address did they rise to their feet. In a closing exhortation, she urged the audience, “Don't ever let anyone to tell you to sit down and shut up.” She then got a...
Sarah Palin Will Not Be Photographed
Sarah Palin may believe in a right to life, but she does not, apparently, think there is a right to cell phones: Attendees of Sarah Palin’s speech on Friday night to the Wisconsin Right to Life will be unable to carry cell phones, cameras, laptops, or recording devices. The press will also be barred from attendance. Tickets to the event cost $30. “You know, for someone who claims to be a rogue and isn’t afraid of what other people think it really is sort of hypocritical to not...

If Nancy Pelosi isn’t taking a day off on her quest to have government run the Health Care industry, neither will Sarah Palin in her quest to stop ObamaCare.
Sarah Palin: Speaker Pelosi: Your Blue Dogs are Howling
Like many Americans, I'm very concerned about the efforts underway to rush through the 2,000 page Pelosi Health Care bill this weekend. Why the rush? That's a lot of pages to read. Why not give everyone the chance to read it and debate it? How much will this bill cost us? It's unclear because the figures coming out of Washington keep changing
Palin vs. Pelosi -- By: Kathryn Jean Lopez: PHOTO
FB, natch: What’s in this bill? The “death panel” provision is in it. Medicare cuts are in it. Coverage of Illegal Immigrants is in it. And federal funding for Abortion is in it. I commend the many Republicans and Blue Dog Democrats who are taking a principled stance to fight this. I had a message for Speaker Pelosi in a speech I gave last night for the Wisconsin Right to Life – “please, please don’t break the ‘transparency promise’ by prohibiting...

Palin In Wisconsin: PHOTO
The former vice-presidential candidate and leader of the GOP base gave a speech last night in Wisconsin. From the scattered notes of someone who was there, it seems like it was a good speech, and rehearsed some serious applause lines on Abortion, and revealed a new sophistication on the subject. I'm not sure how much time Palin has spent reading John Paul II, but she sure knew how to quote him. Here's a passage as written down by an attendee Going Rogue : Those who believed in the...

Sarah Palin's book tour skirts blue states
Sarah Palin's book tour is a gift for her base. No stops are planned in Seattle, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Los Angeles and other major cities and book-buying communities that are standard for authors on the road, but where the voters tend to be Democrats. Beyond a Nov. 16 television interview with Oprah Winfrey, nothing is scheduled for Chicago. New York will feature media appearances only. Instead, the itinerary for Palin, whose "Going Rogue" comes out Nov. 17, includes Noblesville, Ind.;...

Sarah Palin in Wisconsin Last Night -- By: Kathryn Jean Lopez: PHOTO
Via JMart: It is so bogus that society is sending a message right now and has been for probably the last 40 years that a woman isn’t strong enough or smart enough to be able to pursue an education, a career and her rights and still let her baby live.
