Is Sarah Palin a Retard?

[yoav]

What's a hidden gem in our city that you love?

Literally retarded? Of course not. Lower end of the bell curve, perhaps.

But what's the point of a thread like this? Do you want to discuss Palin seriously, or just jerk each other off?

She's not retarded. She's not an intellectual either. She's someone who thinks she's extremely intelligent, and is good at manipulating those who are less intelligent then her, which feeds her belief that she is extremely intelligent.

If Rush Limbaugh says she's retarded its okay because he means it the right way, if Rahm Emanuel says she's retarded its not okay because he means it in the offensive way.

I'm with Rahm.

Ummm, it is a discussion forum? Read around on a few of the topics and you could ask the same question.

You actually hit the nail on the head there.

Spooky, how did you get so good at trolling? I honestly don't understand why people reply to you.

Where is the President Obama poll equating intelligence to presidential ability(or lack thereof)? Or the poll on if you believe the President will continue to lie? Why are all the Obama supporters deflecting so much, why have they been so quiet in the last few months? The poll asking, now that we have seen what a lack of experience equals, would you vote another inexperienced candidate for president? Where is the poll on hope? Any of these would be more relevant and possibly induce discussion.

Palin, however, is a talking head with a lowest common denominator of perceived "everyman" values, nothing more, done and done. Stop giving her credibility with this sort of crap.

edited to add some trolling:

There is plenty of room for you to make those polls Spooky. I have a special affinity to midgets with curly hair, whom like to get creamy loads dumped in their vag. Yet you do not see me going into the porn thread asking where is the thread for women I like.
Also, FWIW, what is an experienced Pres. candidate? How many years does it take serving in the Senate/House to get that experience?

Also, FWIW, I do not miss GW and I voted for him twice happily. What would make you miss him? Has something that Obama did directly affected your well being?
