Jack Fowler at The Corner points us to Sarah Palin's address to the 2009 Special Olympics in Boise, Idaho. She talks about the large part this organization will play in their family's life and how much she looks forward to the opportunity Trig will have to play sports just like the rest of her kids did.

The Teleprompter has been around since the early '80's. Cue Cards were used before the Teleprompter and notes on a sheet of paper remain a perennial favorite for those speaking in public.

joe: "Our president is an idiot!!!"
sorry, joe, but the MSM already used the "IDIOT" label on George W. Bush. And they NEVER re-cycle!
Please choose your descriptor for the President from the APPROVED list below:
- Brilliant
- "A gift to America from the world" [Chris Mathews]
- Too cool for school
- The One
In the unlikely event that one of those descriptors doesn't work for you in this scenario (our "beloved" President insulting the Special Olympics and disabled children) please choose from one of the "approved" excuses below. Our President was:
- misquoted
- misunderstood
- trying to start a long over-due dialogue on disabilities
- tired from saving the world
- speaking "in-artfully"

Maybe the Special Olympics needs to challenge the current administration to a bowling tournement. Winner takes all, although I don't know that the Special Olympians would want the White House. Since the current adminisration is morally disabled, they should be able to play about even. I'd still lay my money on the special olympics though.

...except that most public speakers only use cue cards and notes to assist their speeches, not replace the process of making them.
When someone walks up with a handful of index cards and gives a speech while only glancing down to check for notes and data, they have to know the subject matter to a certain degree.
Here's the problem: we have a bunch of people who think we got a great statesman when Obama won in November. Unfortunately, what we really got was William Hurt in "Broadcast News."

Gov. Palin speaks from her heart, and speaks from the conviction of core beliefs. That is why the left heaps abuse on her because they don't understand how anyone could love and appreciate a Down Syndrome child that they think should have been aborted.

I think Governor Palin is a class act, and if ever given the opportunity to back her again, I will do so gladly.

Rather to rephrase: If we are going by presidential qualifications and abilities not to mention respect for all Americans than She could very easily be burping Obama in Her lap..

Ha! And so Sarah Palin takes Obama to the woodshed. All the Obamoids must be pretty depressed after seeing their boy taken down by this "dumb" "caribou Barbie."

That's a cute little baby boy she has! He'll do all right.
Bravo, Gov. Palin! She has more guts in her uterus than most Liberals have in their entire bodies! By her life-affirming example, she has put too many people to shame.
And that's why they hate her.
