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:

We had Linsay, then Brittnay, for the moment, it's Palin -more pathetic than the former two combined. That's just damned fun.

[Rescisco]

I wonder if even Sarah is beginning to catch on that she's out of her depth? Something in her demeaner suggests to me that she is about to lose it emotionally.

[JHancock]

Stupid people have no clue that they are stupid.

[dare i hope]

This from Randy Scheunemann, from the McCain crew:

"I've worked in Washington for over 20 years. I have seen literally dozens of politicians, and Sarah Palin is as smart, tough and focused as any politician I've ever seen. I'm proud of the time I was able to spend with her."

I am not sure if he knows how silly this makes everyone else seem.

[Teeninchee]

makes me wonder about him.

[TLV]

They lost. Don't wonder.

[hortonhearsawho]

Never realized how many people can see Russia.

LOL...how silly this makes everyone else seem? I think it makes him look pretty silly. And delusional.

Palin did not show up for work today, must have been hiding clothes & reading all the news on what Americas really think about her. After her lies, rants, lycnh mobs and almost race riots from trashing Obama, it must be a real taste your own medicine moment. Ouch.

[hortonhearsawho]

Herd of moose runing around with enlarged colons...

[SonyaInTx]

Good. Let her continue to taste her own medicine for as long as she trashed Obama. Karma's a b i t c h.

[GoodwithWood]

"Yawn" lets move on.

[hortonhearsawho]

[johnnyjust]

PDS---Palin Derangement Syndrome--goes on and on at PuffPost.

[hortonhearsawho]

Whoa, thats what your old lady calls me, well shucks...

[MajorKong]

I'm sorry. I didn't realize pit bulls were so fragile.

[Vincero]

she is the derangment that keeps on giving.


enjoy your new president!

Congratulations to the women who were smart enough to know this was a joke of a pick by McCain to try and use disgruntled Hilary supporters.

[PaluaWahine]

The real story isn't whether or not it's true.. it's that the McCain campaign is throwing her under the bus by leaking things like this.

Still good for an affirming chuckle though.. most people have no trouble buying it, based on her performance.

[Vincero]

of course its true.
you think fox of all people would say this if it were lies?


they are simply getting it out first.

[tcwillis27]

The thing is, none of it is surprising. If I pick up a people magazine tomorrow and see her, jen aniston and john mayer on the cover with a "love triangle" headline, it wouldn't be surprising. And it's not because she's the people's politician, it's because she's not a serious politician. If she were, she would have done her homework before she took the test.

[hortonhearsawho]

Have to admit it ladies, they do have the seemingly perfect marriage. She leads, he follows. All that stuff about him being some type of power broker, per say, never materialized. It is like they form the complete sentence together, granted a grammatical structure no one has ever seen before, but that aside....S­he is the subject and, um, her daughter being predicate ai'nt got moose tail to do with anything.

[bdd]

Yeah. Right.

[hortonhearsawho]

I'm sure she will let all the locals know that it was....the best election in 50 states.

[MIVOTE]

Just let Palin stay in Alaska. If she's as smart as they say, she'll take a remedial course in politics before she steps outside of her boundaries again.
