Sarah Palin at Faux News?
Oh, good.

Now I can ignore them both at the same time.

A twofer, if you will.

:P

1. I'm hoping this means that she's not contemplating
a run for the presidency, but I truly wish that her voice would be silenced forever.

No, I'm not wishing death on the ex-guv, but a long involuntary commitment seems appropriate.

3. A snowball's chance in hell.
That's her chance at the presidency.

I agree with you, actually...I wish she would shut up and go away, but hopefully this run at Faux will show her to be the idiot we already know she is.

21. No, I think she figured out a ways back that playing "pundit" pays more than actually
doing something.

5. A TV studio won't provide the adulation she craves unless
the staff is kissing her feet everyday, imo. She will be speaking to the camera lens. It won't satisfy her.

30. Please.... she loves being in front of the camera.. and they will pay her far more than she is worth
just to draw in the ignorant slobs that watch FOX with the sound off just so they can stare at her.



It should also be mentioned that as a contributer the entire segment can be scripted for her ahead of time.


Her dream job was to be on ESPN reading a script, this is the closest she will ever get.

7. Goody! She'll provide a ton of ammo when she runs for prez
I hope she gets the GOP nomination. She will do wonders for picking up more House and Senate seats. Obama's reelection will be a no-look slam dunk.

8. I'd be careful what you wish for...
There's a fair number of folks who'd love to vote for her.

I hope she manages to discredit the Republican party. Now, that would be a good thing.

9. You're right, Peggy.
We should never underestimate the stupidity and delusion of her followers.

17. The last I looked like 85% of the country said she would not make a good president
leaving 15% which is the really, REALLY out there wingnuts of the country.

And that's who we want as the GOP nominee.

11. I think they will try to keep her from doing that.
That would not be in Faux's best interests...

I hope you're right, though!

Pass the popcorn!

12. But can they "handle" her?
From what I read about the campaign, she wouldn't listen to anyone.

13. They have power over her...
They can get rid of her if she doesn't behave...

Or so I believe...

If she wants the exposure, she needs to play by their rules.

15. Seriously---should she not be REQUIRED, at some point, to declare that she will NOT
Edited on Mon Jan-11-10 07:56 PM by Atticus
run for president? If not, will FOX have to give Obama equal time on the air?

Of course, with the SCOTUS about to declare corporations the political equal of people, maybe they'll just call it a "campaign contribution".

Who's to say she won't quit 5 minutes into her first appearance?
