Sarah Palin Caught Black Handed
Posted on 08. Feb, 2010 by Stenberg-Tendys W.L. in Politics
What began as a grass roots movement, appears to have quickly become big and profitable business. During her speech at Nashville’s very expensive Tea Party, Sarah Palin was shown to have notes written on her left hand. This was during a speech in which she mocked President Obama for using a teleprompter.
It was in the question and answer period, after her speech, that Palin appeared to read something off her hand. An enhanced photo revealed the words, ‘Energy’, ‘Tax’, Lift American Spirits’ and ‘Budget Cuts’ (with budget crossed out).
The Hand
Critics around the world reacted with a wide range of humour, from suggesting Palin should sell ad space on her hand, thanking her for giving a visual definition of ‘talk to the hand’, to Sarah Palin’s new job – palm reading.
Palin shot back at her critics by writing ‘Hi Mom’, on her hand during a campaign appearance with Gov. Rick Perry in Texas.
It has been reported that Sarah Palin was paid $100,000 to speak at the Tea Party in Nashville, before a small crowd of Tea Party convention-goers, who all paid a hefty price to attend. Three cable news channels broadcast the speech live. She touched on many of the social and political divisive topics that have impassioned the Tea Party movement.
During the question and answer session she concluded “The Republican Party would be really smart to start trying and absorb as much of the Tea Party movement as possible.”
“I would if I believe that is the right thing to do for our country and the Palin family. Certainly I would do so,” Palin said when asked if she would run for president in 2012. The Fox News Sunday interview was taped the night before she delivered the address to the Tea Party convention. The interview left a clear impression that Sarah Palin would not be a running mate in the 2012 presidential election, but quite possibly a firm contender as a candidate in her own right.
When asked about the hefty fee she received to appear at the Tea Party, Palin replied, “This isn’t about money. It is not about a title. It is not about a leader position in this movement,” she said. “It is about the people. I will live, I will die for the people of America whatever I can do to help. And this party, this party that we call the Tea Party, this movement is the future of politics in America and I am proud to be here today.”

[...] Read how Sarah Palin openly admits that she could run for election in 2010… [...]
I idolize Sarah Palin because she is a woman with very strong character. She has also lots of accomplishments in the area of public service.`
