I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because some people out there in our nation don't have maps ....Alaskan waterhead Sarah Palin went to Ground Zero! She is really enjoying her first trip to a city, and also probably saw MAMMA MIA and The Lion King, which she found “too liberal.” And you know what’s super-duper tall? The Empire State Building, that’s what! They don’t make ‘em like that in Wasilla, where the tallest building is a Taco Bell arch. Anyway, let’s look at the transcript of Palin’s very brief, very embarrassing bit of give and take with the poor reporters who have to follow this idiot around New York and finally got to holler four questions today.

We will not take the easy way out, here; what follows is the entire transcript of her first-ever taking of questions from the press corps, with our comments. Why didn’t we just cherry pick a few extra-dumb sentences and hit “publish”? Because it’s all extra dumb.

Your new vice president of vapidity, Mrs. Palin, started off with some numbskull grade-school-vacation recitation they must’ve hammered into her big-haired head all night long, Gitmo style:

“Every American student needs to come through this area so that, especially this younger generation of Americans is, to be in a position of never forgetting what happened here and never repeating, never allowing a repeat of what happened here.”

If she learned anything at the Idaho community college of local sports commentary, it’s “filling air time.” Exactly like the infamous airhead Miss Teen South Carolina, Palin has been coached to mindlessly say phrases such as “younger generations of Americans” and to dully repeat variations of any vaguely familiar phrase she stumbles upon: “never forgetting,” “never repeating,” “never allowing a repeat,” etc. This is called “autism.”

She continues:

“I wish every American would come through here. I wish every world leader would come through here, and understand what it is that took place here and more importantly how America came together and united to commit to never allowing this to happen again.”

It’s a sweet platitude, and wouldn’t come off quite so dim if “every world leader” hadn’t already paid their respects at Ground Zero, about seven years ago, when Palin hadn’t yet learned New York was part of the United States.

“And just to hear and from and see these good New Yorkers who are rebuilding not just this are but helping to rebuild America has been very, very inspiring and encouraging. These are the good Americans who are committed to peace and security and its been an absolute honor getting to meet these folks today.”

Leave it to someone who has never seen a skyscraper before this week to think the ugly hole left by the World Trade Center’s destruction seven years ago is “inspiring and encouraging.” It’s a sad monument to everything America can’t do anymore.

And now, her first “unscripted” answer to a reporter:

CNN: On the topic of never letting this happen again, do you agree with the way the Bush administration has handled the war on terrorism, is there anything you would do differently?

A: I agree with the Bush administration that we take the fight to them. We never again let them come onto our soil and try to destroy not only our democracy, but communities like the community of New York. Never again. So yes, I do agree with taking the fight to the terrorists and stopping them over there.

Ugh. Not even George W. Bush trots out the “taking the fight to the terrorists” bullshit about Iraq these days, does he? Also, again with the mindless repetition of whatever word her pea brain stumbles upon: “communities like the community,” etc.

Also: Does she really believe immigrants and visitors from Iraq and Afghanistan are not allowed to “come onto our soil”? Probably.

POLITICO: Do you think our presence in Iraq and Afghanistan and our continued presence there is inflaming Islamic extremists?

A: I think our presence in Iraq and Afghanistan will lead to further security of our nation, again, because the mission is to take the fight over there. Do not let them come over here and attempt again what they accomplished here, and that was some destruction. terrible destruction on that day. But since September 11, Americans uniting and rebuilding and committing to never letting that happen again.

Ha ha, 9/11 was “some destruction.” And again with the autistic repetition, “some destruction. Terrible destruction.” Luckily, she will stick to the mission, “the mission is to take the fight over there,” in Iraq, where 9/11 happened so long ago on September 11.

POLITICO: Do you support the reelection bids of embattled Alaska Republicans, Rep. Don Young and Sen. Ted Stevens?

A: Ted Stevens’ trial started a couple days ago. We’ll see where that goes.

POLITICO: Are you gong to vote for them?

[no answer.]

Palin actually ran Ted Stevens’ 527 fund-raising operation, begged for the “Bridge to Nowhere” earmarks, loves Ted Stevens, and, uh, believes Stevens’ trial started “a couple of days ago.” Opening arguments began this morning.

JERSEY JOURNAL: What do you think of bailout package before congress?

A: I don’t support that until the provisions that Sen. McCain has offered are implemented in Paulson’s proposals.

Translation: “I have no idea what’s in the bailout package, and neither does McCain, and I wouldn’t understand a word of it if you read Paulson’s proposal to me right now.”

There are a few things America should never forget. One of them would be electing Morons. It doesn’t seem some 50% of Americans have yet connected 8 years of a Moron Administration with the current economic, environmental, and international meltdowns. It also appears these same Americans may elect a Moron again. But then again, how do you “forget” what you never really knew? In conclusion, America is fucked.

I think we need to deal with the fact that we, as a nation, or at least as part of a nation, like maybe half of a nation, the bigger half even, WANT to be governed by retarded people. It makes us feel better about how we’re slightly retarded too. We want a grumpy old shit head who will fly into a tard rage whenever his juice and crackers are endangered, break a plastic chair, then dutifully stand in the corner for his time out, maybe napping before that time out is even over. We want the girl with the drool problem, the one who has never said anything coherent in her brief life but enjoys babbling whenever she’s allowed near adults. Put them in the big house, give them the check book and the missile codes! It makes us feel better about how we locked the keys in the apartment and are probably going to have our car repossessed. At least we’re not as dumb as America’s Next Top Retards.

I’m sorry I wrote all that. I actually love retarded ppl and I shouldn’t use the challenges they face as a tool for mocking the gop ticket. I hope that any care-givers who read wonkette comments will forgive me. (Hitting submit anyway)

If folks in Alaska want to dissolve their ties with the USA, that’s their business. Haven’t you ever heard of states’ rights?

I wish liberals were willing to call the “fighting them over there” argument what it is: using the Army as human shields (or more accurately as targets). Instead of striking at the root of the problem, they hope military volunteers will get killed in the Mideast so we don’t have to get killed at home. It doesn’t work that way, unfortunately for neocons.

Also, I’m surprised McCain’s announcement of Palin didn’t require him to admonish the assembled reporters, “and no more questions about whether this is a joke,” a la the announcement of Homer Simpson, average-naut.

BobLoblawLawBlog September 25, 2008 at 4:12 pm

Wow, if this is what the president of Georgia thinks is “ferociously smart,” then maybe McCain’s right: we are a nation of fucking Georgians.

so bible spice took a broadcast journalism course at potato state u. (juss’ jokin, idaho, i luvs ya, put down that gun, pleez), and she was taught to fear and loathe “dead air”, as in “unintended silence on the airwaves”, not understandin that “dead air” is also any noise she makes any time she opens her lipstickity mout’.

[re=108445]Nizzles![/re]: I, too, have been thinking Lima looks nice – at least your dollars are still worth something and there are a number of eco-luxe resorts elsewhere in Peru. There’s also the upside that the native llamas would be about 27x smarter than Palin or the lurching electorate behind her, so even if you don’t speak Spanish or Quechua, there’s someone to talk to…

I just want to say, thank you for the transcript. In fact, can I get more transcripts, please, because, as a semi-educated voter, I feel I ought to know what she’s saying.

Any Palin utterance should be accompanied by a laugh track, seriously.

Godot September 25, 2008 at 5:37 pm

I kinda wish I had time to go to somewhere Palin was giving a speech before a large crowd. As old and tired as it is, she deserves the “WHAT?” chant (at every pause or sentence end in a speaker’s lines, the entire audience shouts “WHAT?” in unison). I’d like to take a shot at getting that started.

oldguy September 25, 2008 at 6:19 pm

Wait a gol’darned minute.

Americans coming together and rebuilding communities? Sort of organizing and coming together? That absolutely reeks of community and and communities … communities coming together … rebuilding … organizing.

Did she wait for the derisive laughter from the adoring crowd?

Ya know, the difference between soccer moms and community organizers?
