Palin: Africa Charge Comes From 'Small, Bitter Person' (VIDEO)

Last night, Fox News' Carl Cameron reported some astounding news -- according to top John McCain aides, Sarah Palin did not know Africa was a continent. Today, via Think Progress, Palin dismissed the story, saying a "small, evidently bitter type of person" made "foolish ... false allegations." However, she did not specifically refute the Africa claim or any of the other charges related by Cameron. Watch:

This small bitter person also held Sarah down and carved a backwards "B" on her cheek..

She's a ignorant nutcase. Dangerous, but ignorant.

[pilgrim7]

Instead of answering the charges, she belittles the source.

[thismachinekillsfascists]

Hmm, typical Republican response.

I kind of feel sorry for her but at the same time she brought it upon herself for not being honest about who she is, if to no one else, then herself.

She deserves to be removed from office but at the same time, she reminds of the old post turtle story we've used about Bush for so long.

"While suturing a laceration on the hand of a 70-year-old Texas rancher (whose hand had caught in a gate while working cattle), a doctor and the old man were talking about Sarah Palin running for VP..

The old Texan said, "Well, ya know, Palin is a 'post turtle'."

Not knowing what the old man meant, the doctor asked him what a post turtle was.

The old man said, "When you're driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a post turtle."

The old man saw a puzzled look on the doctor's face, so he continued to explain, "You know he didn't get there by himself, he doesn't belong there, he doesn't know what to do while he's up there, and you just want to help the poor thing get down."

Sarah is that Post Turtle.

I agree with this.

But I still can't forgive her for trying to incite racism and hatred in her rallies just to try to win some votes.

I'll never forget the smug look on her face while her supporters called out "Terrorist" "Kill Him" "He's an A-rab"

I feel sorry for her but she's still just as disgusting

[7Habits]

Thank you All - I don't know you, but I love you.

[iv64]

I am usually a very kind and peaceful person but this "thing" just disgusts me and it is bringing out my killer instinct. I am sorry I am enjoying seeing her being ripped to shreds. She almost took us all down with her. Thankfully Americans are generally smarter than she is. She is just going to have to suffer for the greater good as far as I am concerned.

I have this wicked scene in my mind of Sarah Palin hiding out in her bunny slippers and a robe with a bottle of cheap whiskey trying to forget the last two months.

[hortonhearsawho]

Is that Levi behind her in that scene...

[mckinley]

SHE DOES NOT DENY IT !!!!!!

Palin just obvuscates!!

[anitayupyup]

Sarah, I believe you. I do! Its the same person doing these things as the person who did not know what the job of a Veep was....a small, bitter woman...yo­u! Ah, your illusions of grandeur sure were busted fast. No Veep residence for you, no more Nieman marcus, no free food or free flights or free lodgings. Heck, not even per diems anymore! Betcha they will want your grifter b u t t in Juneau from here on out! yup yup!

[marc1antony]

she says it's not true, but it falls in line perfectly with why she wasn't allowed near a press conference or looked like an idiot in her ABC and CBS interviews. Wink, Wink... just don't cut it, and reading a teleprompter, which she got her degree in, is not going to teach her how many continents there are in the world. Sorry, it just sounds like the REAL sarah... all beauty and no brains - make get her by in Alaska, where she gets paid to stay home - but not down here in the "real" America.

Isn't saying it's false the same as refuting it? Or am i just the smartest persone here (as usual).

[hortonhearsawho]

less that one little old E, well sure fellow....

[aceholiday]

she said she wouldn't comment on false allegations. the best that can be is an implication of denial of any non-specific allegation

[TishiJo]

Palin's RNC speech hailed,as an incredible speech, was soon proven full of lies about her background and accomplishments and was filled with sarcastic derogatory remarks against her opponents. Whether she used inciteful hate speech for her own purpose or according to GOP directive, she did so willingly and effectively to increase divisiveness in our country at a time when we need unity to get through an economic crisis. Her willingness to use misinformation, lies and hate speech comletely disqualifies her as a national leader. Palin's obvious lack of education, and lack of intellectual curiosity about our government further disqualifies her as a national leader. John McCain and GOP advisors who chose her demonstrated a lack of regard for our country that was potentially one of the greatest risks we might've faced. Both McCain and Palin have left many good Americans in a state of anger and fear as a result of their treachery. Fox News, CNN and ABC are guilty as well. May God bless America in the difficult months ahead.

If she had done all of this as a comedy club act....She would be a billionaire by now.

[write2bheard]

She has a sweat shirt on, but her baby is bare-footed and looks like her daughter doesn't have a jacket on either, although other people in the video also have on jackets. It would be interesting to know what the body language of the way she is carrying little Trig reveals.

It's true. They all lug this child around like a sack of potatoes..­..not lovingly like a baby.

[hortonhearsawho]

Maybe she forgot she saw Africa from that "other" northwest coast of America?
