Election 2012 Sarah Palin Uses Big Word, Astonishes Nation

Posted by Paul Constant on Wed, Jul 27, 2011 at 1:38 PM

Holy shit you guys: Count the syllables in this bad boy that Sarah Palin just dropped:

“A lot of this has to do with his background, him having not been a part of the private sector and running a business or having to rely on making profit. That seems to be foreign to our President. His background and those he’s appointing don’t understand what America was built upon. His ideas are the antithesis of those things that created the prosperity in America,” Palin said.

How many times do you think she pronounced it "anti-thesis" in practice before her advisers finally corrected her? Anyway: This is just more cowardly bullshit from Palin. Note the prominent use of the word "foreign" when talking about the president. She's still using her where's-the-birth-certificate dog whistles to drum up the base, which is so 2010. This woman is an artifact.
