@paddysbrain1989 - Feb 2003, Sarah Palin is appointed to the Alaska Oil & Gas Conservation Commission.

As a member of the Commission, she saw many conflicts of interests & ethics violations take place by members of both parties, so she filed complaints against them, which resulted in their resignations. Dems and GOP members.

Fact: Palin prioritizes Ethics over Party.

She knows more about Oil, Solar, Wind, Electric, Coal, etc...than 99% of our elected officials

Including Mr. Empty Suit Obama.

[phpeters87]

I bet all of you calling Palin "stupid" voted for Al Gore in 2000, who, during a January 17, 1993 pre-Inaugural tour of Monticello, Thomas Jefferson's home, shown live by C-SPAN, Al Gore asks of busts of George Washington, Benjamin Franklin and Marquis de Lafayette: "Who are these people?"

Just because Palin doesn't have a "favorite" doesn't mean squat.

Meanwhile, Al Gore, who many of you Palin critics voted for, didn't recognize busts of our Founding Fathers.

Keep projecting lefties...

[hatchererica]

Left wing deaf and blind! Hard question when you've not been FED THE QUESTIONS! I'll translate for you since you're too stupid and can't figure it out: "they all came together bringing something unique to the table. While I respect them all I would have to say George Washington, because he was wasn't a "politician" and didn't want to be HEAD, ie., KING ( as they have in England, in case you didn't know) OR PRESIDENT, but would serve out of duty to country." Capito?

[Fasil777]

lol this is like watching two Nazi's discussing how much they love democracy .

[phpeters87]

@Fasil777 - The "Nazi" card. Do you have a "Race Card" up your sleeve, and if so, how worn out is it?

Do you know what "NAZI" is an acronym for?

Look it up. The Nazi's were Socialists.

They did things like Nationalize Health Care, the Auto Industry, Banks, & other industries, just like our current President.

BTW, since the MSM is ignoring it, I thought I'd let you know that his job approval rating is currently at 39% approval, while 54% disapprove of his job performance.

39% & dropping.

[Fasil777]

@phpeters87 lol we'll see in 2012 if you get " your country" back . Everyone knows that conservatives have the deed to the land we call USA lol Feelings of entitlements and ownership of something you share is widespread in conservatives.

[phpeters87]

@Fasil777 - Where did I write anything like that? Stop projecting and stop calling people "Nazi's" when you don't can't even see the parallels between the Nazi's and this administration, which I will refrain from calling "Nazi's" despite the fact they are nationalizing the auto, health, education, banking and other industries.

And I guess we'll have to wait until Obama is done with his Darth Vader bus tour and yet another vacation before he "unveils" his jobs plan, nearly 3 years into his term.

[doltbezoar]

She just babbles and babbles and always comes off as the twit she is.

[Coastie1966]

They came with so much Diversity and the Diversity of their Diversity and he didn't want to be the King of the President with Diversity ????????? what the hell is this rapid speaking Potted Plant talking about ??????

[megleee]

So much diverse....opinion...so...much divers....ity...

[eurasianchica]

She didn't give deep, meaningful, political arguments to answer this question but I don't think we can expect her to in a short interview like this. I do disagree with some of her points, though, because GW was a federalist and opposed the bill of rights so it's not like he was the most "give power to the people" out of all the founding fathers.

[dak879]

@eurasianchica She didn't give any answer at all. She gave a lack of an answer. Someone who aspires to the white house couldn't name a single founding father. That is appalling, insulting, and shameful. I honestly believe that someone is playing a joke on us as a nation by parading this woman around, and making us all look like fools as a result. We deserve better than this. Not just as Republicans or Democrats, but as citizens of a supposedly educated nation.

[eurasianchica]

@dak879 She did say George Washington... am I misunderstanding what you said?

[dak879]

@eurasianchica No, she just parroted back what Beck said. She was completely and utterly stumped. Same thing with the Roe v. Wade question. They asked her what Supreme Court decisions she disagreed with, and she said Roe v. Wade (i.e. she just parroted back what was already said because she couldn't think of an answer). Don't pretend like she thought about it and considered it in her head, and she came to the rational and logical conclusion that GW was her favorite founding father.

[progressthruscience]

Please tell me this is a joke. It's like a bad nightmare....

[dudesonman4200]

She makes glenn beck look reasonable. Its ridiculous

[xSpecterx99999999]

HAHA. George Washington returned back to mount rushmore and became a stone face once again. Every 300 years he will return to spready liberty around the world. Hell my answer is better than hers and I am joking.

[andruh99]

Well by her own reasoning, her lime-light-chasing shows that she is unqualified to be a head of state.

[universalconnections]

i CANT WAIT FOR HER TO BECOME THE LEADER OF THIS COUNRTY!!! SNL IS GOING TO BE THE #1 SHOW ON EARTH.

PALIN 2012 YEEHAW

[ineternitypast]

title to the video is wrong. i don't even like palin, but she answered george washington and then elaborated. i think its a pretty smart answer.

[Kaalec]

@ineternitypast I wouldn't call it "smart" beyond junior high history, but it was not erroneous, but it was remarkably superficial. I still don't understand why it took her so long to say "George Washington". It almost seems like she didn't know what Beck meant by "Founding Fathers".

[drhitler]

well no shit she's eye candy how else do you think she got so popular?

Would you rather look at some old geezer who doesnt care about you or some decent looking woman who doesnt care about you?

Yet these are the people we keep letting into government. We all need to learn that we control the government, not them control us. If a companys employees go on strike changes are made within the company or it fails.

Beck is also a douche

[2edsajdmsa]

I used to think Palin was just a bad person, but I'm now convinced shes just dumb

[CMXXXPUNK]

she can read anything off a card but if you ask her a question she just incoherently rambles

[prettywikked11]

two goofballs trying to speak to eachother. ouch.

the stupid bitch acts like she has studied washington. she probably thinks washington is on the quaker oats box

[jvaz003]

She actually knew what she was talking about. Didn't you hear when she spoke about George Washington? She knows what she is talking about

[jpjoyce10]

Read your history Glenn and Sarah, Washington was for what was at the time big central government.

[ineternitypast]

@jpjoyce10 no, limited central govt is what they established at the time.

big central govt is what we have now as a result of a 100 years of the fed govt stepping over its constitutional boundaries thanks to progressive presidents and the progressive movement as a whole which now needs to be stomped out like cockroach

[enomarekim]

It's like russle crowe's character in gladiator.

[lovemyloks]

She sounds like a used car salesman or fake preacher who talks fast to keep your mind off of the fact that they really arent saying much of anything at all.

[wvprogressive1933]

What a stupid woman!

She makes Beck look smart!

[ThePuppetgirl12]

Sarah Palin is a retard!

She should have written the founding fathers on her hand!!

She is just eye candy for the old men of the republican party.

[tacomadc]

She sounds like a munchkin on speed.

Washington DID NOT lead the founding fathers - he was chosen as President FAR after the Declaration of Independance, and in fact had nothing to do with it, or the writing of the Constitution.

Something else she remembered from 6th grade and is still coasting on.

[Caboose3376]

Um.. you do realize that Washington presided over the Constitutional Convention don't you? You know, the drafting of the constitution?

[garethac81]

This sounds so much like a 6th grade oral exam, the fact that it's a paid political analyst talking - and not an 11 year old - is pretty scary.

Still, nice of Palin to give us all yet another reminder of her awesome lack of education and intellect...

[bsdsooner]

Hahaha....Did she even go to school? Her ignorance is unreal.

[phpeters87]

@bsdsooner - Yet you likely voted for Al Gore in 2000, who asked during a January 17, 1993 pre-Inaugural tour of Monticello, Thomas Jefferson's home, shown live on CSPAN, Al Gore asks about the busts of George Washington, Benjamin Franklin and other Founding Fathers: "Who are these people?"

Now, who is stupid - the person that might not have a favorite Founding Father, or the person who doesn't even recognize some of the most famous Statesman in US history?

And the people who voted for him?

[phpeters87]

@bsdsooner - You likely voted/supported Al Gore in 2000, who asked during a January 17, 1993 pre-Inaugural tour of Monticello, Thomas Jefferson's home as shown live on CSPAN, Al Gore asks about the busts of George Washington, Benjamin Franklin & our other Founding Fathers: "And who are these people?"

Now, who is stupid - the person that may not have a favorite Founding Father, or the person who doesn't even recognize likenesses of our Founding Fathers?

And the people who voted for him.

Owned.

[HHNPeak]

@bsdsooner This is why she is smarter than u will ever be.. Would u like to Compare a dumbass (Barack Obama) or Sara Palin

[eksdem]

Sarah was right. A diverse group of men NEEDED to come together to form our country. And those men admired Washington so much that they wanted to have him lead them in war and in peace.

Lincoln agreed that Washington was the greatest.

"Washington is the mightiest name on earth -- long since mightiest in the cause of civil liberty; still mightiest in moral reformation. .. To add brightness to the sun, or glory to the name of Washington, is alike impossible."

"--Lincoln, Feb 22, 1842
