OK, come on, fess up-- if anyone on OUR side made that WTF comment...

[TreasonousBastard]

we'd be on the floor laughing hysterically.

It was funny.

(Imagine Barney Frank saying it about a Bush speech?)

[Trajan]

1. Millions of lame comments are made every day ....

I wont begin to imagine which one you are talking about ...

I will just post this, exit, and fuggedaboutit ....

[JVS]

2. It's real funny until you hear her talk about her ideas, then the WTF reading spikes into the..

surreal and scary.

[emulatorloo]

3. Sarah Palin is an idiot and (on edit) an asshole.

Why are you comparing her to Barney Frank.

[fishwax]

4. nah -- if Barney Frank said something similar, it'd be paired w/ intelligent and insightful analysis

whereas when Palin said it, she paired it with a comment that once again revealed her tenuous grasp on history, etc.

[gateley]

5. What comment? I'm not sitting next to you so I have no idea what you're seeing/hearing. Thank you.

[TreasonousBastard]

7. She was interviewed by Greta van Susteren the other night and made this comment...

"His theme last night in the State of the Union was the WTF -- winning the future. And I thought, okay. That acronym? Spot on. There were a lot of WTF moments throughout that speech."

(It's been making the rounds.)

[gateley]

11. Man, I agree with your OP! Unbelievable. What a twit. nt

[emilyg]

6. It was funny.

[WinkyDink]

8. But our side doesn't profess to be holier-than-thou.

[seabeyond]

9. like olbermans WTF segment, i would be saying the same. time and place. this isnt it. nt

[Greybnk48]

10. We all know she was fed that line by someone else.

That's why it's not as funny as if, e.g., Barney Frank said it. If Barney Frank said it, we would know it was something he thought of or something spontaneous. When she says things like that, we know it's being fed to her from some dark, fetid hole--and not funny.

12. The word reference by the "F"

Should never be uttered in polite company. It was wrong when Cheney used it, and it's wrong when Palin uses it.

They should not be confused with Olberman, or S. Miller, however, because Olberman and Miller have never held public office, nor are they seeking such a thing.

[truebrit71]

13. Oh calm the fuck down...

:evilgrin:

[JuniperLea]

15. Fuckity fuck fuck fuck to you too!

:evilgrin:

Yeah, that doesn't count... we're just InterTube Goobers... not political goobers:D

[truebrit71]

18. LOL!!!

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

[mainer]

14. It wasn't the "WTF." It was the Sputnik stupidity

That's what we're making fun of.

I don't care about the WTF.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

17. This is the correct answer. -nt

[ecstatic]

16. No... it's not...

If for some strange reason I found myself watching a repub give the SOTU address and it was well thought out and reasonable, I don't see how reducing it down to WTF would be funny. Did I agree with everything he said? No... but there were no WTF moments in his speech (at least, not to those with a shred of common sense).
