WORLD: Sarah Palin Uses Crib Notes During Tea Party Appearance
Sarah Palin's speech at the so-called National Tea Party Convention last night was interesting for many reasons. One of them is that Palin was forced to use crib notes scrawed on her hand.
The photo above, blown up from the photo below by The Huffington Post, clearly shows the evidence. The crib notes were used during a Q&A session at the convention, leading to the obvious conclusion that the questions and answers were known beforehand.
It's not hard to believe she would need to use crib notes. After all, this is a woman who didn't know Africa was a continent. It is, however, hypocritical since she recently criticized President Barack Obama over use of a teleprompter.
It does show that she's learned from the Katie Couric interview from last year: don't go in without knowing the answers, and make sure you have the answers around in case you forget them.

The hoopla about this was expected given how much uproar the Republicans gave Obama for his use of a teleprompter; this is more of a retaliation than actually caring that Palin used notes scribbled on her hand like an 8th-grader cheating on an exam. This wasn't an exam and I don't see why it would matter if a speaker had notes or a full script. The contents of the speech are vastly more important and there are plenty of reasons to criticize Palin in that realm that's for sure.

That's an interesting point, Ryan. I was always under the impression that while giving speeches most used index cards as notes. Personally, I found the scribbled hand a bit childish. However, I never made the connection to Obama's teleprompter. The over exaggerated reports now make a lot more sense.

The tea party started in Boston throwing 9/11 commission report books into the harbor, 9/11was an inside job... it turned into the Ron Paul Revolution the next year, Ron Paul is the true leader of the patriot movement, a true conservative against unconstitutional laws/wars and against big government... Sarah Palin is a fake neo-conwho wants to bomb Iran, which would likely lead to WWIII... she is incompetent. Ron Paul 2012
