Why Is Idiot Ice Queen Sarah Palin Going Overseas To Bash America? | September 23, 2009

I wonder if Fox News is going to use that headline.

AP/HuffPost:

Former U.S. vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, criticized for her lack of foreign policy experience, emerged in Asia on Wednesday to share her views from “Main Street U.S.A.” with a group of high-flying global investors.

She didn’t refer to President Barack Obama by name, the Wall Street Journal reported, but said she called his campaign promises “nebulous, utopian sounding… Now 10 months later, though, a lot of Americans are asking: more government? Is that the change we want?”

Some attendees were disappointed by her focus on her home state and her attacks on President Obama.

“As fund managers we want to hear about the United States as a whole, not just about Alaska,” one told AFP. “And she criticized Obama a lot but offered no solutions.”

Think Progress:

A US delegate leaving early with a colleague said: “it was awful, we couldn’t stand it any longer.”

Wall Street Journal:

Melvin Goodé, a property consultant who attended Palin’s speech, was interviewed about Palin’s speech by the Wall Street Journal. When asked how he thought she did, he “shrugged his shoulders…[and] said that she generally did all right, given that she ‘wasn’t supposed to know anything about the continent.’”

The GOP is chock full of embarrassment, but considering Sarah Palin is considered some sort of leader, even their 2012 savior, that is just so American, don’t ya know? Say it ain’t so, Joey Joe Joe.
