We really dodged a bullet with that Sarah Palin, didn't we?

We really dodged a bullet with that Sarah Palin, didn't we? Not to sound like a cultist or anything, but when my President addresses something like the Special Olympics, this is what I would prefer. Before I do my part as a good conservative by laying off Dear Leader, I've got to say that I'm not Outrageously Outraged! TM at this. However, is it too much to ask that the effing President of the effing United States act a little more, I dunno, presidential ? Exit question: Why is Trig dressed like a miniature 70's-era Elton John? Posted by: It's Vintage, Duh at 10:53 AM | Comments (1) | Add Comment Post contains 95 words, total ...

in that case we can conclude Laura Ingraham called Megan McCain fat and Rush Limbaugh wished Ted Kennedy was dead nice343 on March 20, 2009 at 10:18 AM Isn’t that exactly what liberals have done? Since when is playing by their rulebook no longer fair play? That said, I didn’t vote offensive but “tone deaf”. The man is the president of this incredible country and should always be careful when he speaks. I’m as sick of the overly PC culture as the next person here, but I’m OK with holding our president to that standard and see no reason he shouldn’t be. Esthier on March 20, 2009 at 10:27 AM ...

While President Obama laid an egg with his crack about the Special Olympics last night, it's worth watching this video that Governor Palin taped just a few weeks ago and which was shown during the 2009 Special Olympics in Boise. Right now President Palin is sounding pretty good, and it's not like she couldn't have figured out how to print money, drive the stock market down, or fill out an NCAA bracket. Also, Andrew Sullivan might want to do some shoe-leather reporting on this but the way Piper is doting on Trig, it seems awfully maternal.

Compare this:
To this:
Boy, we dodged a bullet eh? /sarc
And if you check out the lefty blogs you get the gambit. From saying “hey, Bush was just as bad,” to calling the outrage a “bunch of pc whiners!” You heard that right….a lefty complaining about PC. Then there are those who say “get over it,” he is a “off-the-cuff type person.” My favorite has to be Alan Colmes actually asking if people were offended by jokes from Bush during the White House Correspondents ...

Sarah Palin's Special Olympics video message, pre-Obama slip
Top of the Ticket —
As it happens, not long before President Barack Obama's special Special Olympics gaffe on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" and his jiffy-quick apology, Vice President Joe Biden traveled all the way out to Boise, Idaho, to lend a senior administration presence to the Special Olympics there.
These events are inspiring things to witness, as challenged individuals do the best they possibly can in a variety of athletic events and competitions and enthusiastically celebrate their achievements and participation with cheering family and friends.
As it also happens, that same Special Olympics in ...
