Though I guess I'd need to tell her/the interviewer that.

Missed that--I really wonder whether the "again" was the interviewer's word or hers. With most anyone else, you'd assume it was the interviewer's. With Palin, I wouldn't make that assumption.
― clemenza, Monday, 7 February 2011 05:27 (fifteen years ago)
It's the interviewer's (there's video on the page), but like I implied, Palin may have needed the reminder herself.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzz. Just another hit piece on Sarah Palin by the Liberal Daily Mail. Nothing illegal or unethical here, move on. The Anchorage Daily News is another Liberal paper with a political agenda. The DM has never one had a positive story on Palin, because you hate Conservatives and especially effective Conservative women like Palin.- Dave, Arlington, VA, USA, 21/2/2011 12:33

Found this on the political thread, but I'll hold to my promise of only posting about her here:

I can't be the only one who's hoping for a photo like this to come back:

I envision her in the front row, third from the right. Instead of all those potted plants in the foreground, some kind of animal carcass laid out. Instead of the Maharishi, Glenn Beck; instead of the Beatles--well, I don't know. Whoever's the most visibly right-wing rock band around today.

Margaret Thatcher to Sarah Palin: don't bother dropping by
Allies of former prime minister regard darling of Tea Party movement as a frivolous figure unworthy of an audience

Sarah Palin wants to show to the Republican right that she is the true keeper of the Ronald Reagan flame by meeting the late president's closest ally on the world stage.
A meeting with Margaret Thatcher in the centenary year of Reagan's birth would be the perfect way of launching her bid for the Republican nomination for the 2012 US presidential election.
This is what Palin told Christina Lamb in the Sunday Times:
I am going to Sudan in July and hope to stop in England on the way. I am just hoping Mrs Thatcher is well enough to see me as I so admire her.
It appears that the former prime minister has no intention of meeting the darling of the Tea Party movement. Andy McSmith reported in the Independent this morning that Palin is likely to be "thwarted" on the grounds that Thatcher, 86, rarely makes public appearances.
It would appear that the reasons go deeper than Thatcher's frail health. Her allies believe that Palin is a frivolous figure who is unworthy of an audience with the Iron Lady. This is what one ally tells me:
Lady Thatcher will not be seeing Sarah Palin. That would be belittling for Margaret. Sarah Palin is nuts.
Thatcher will show the level she punches at when she attends the unveiling of a statue of Ronald Reagan outside the US embassy in Grosvenor Square on Independence day on 4 July. This is what her ally told me:
Margaret is focusing on Ronald Reagan and will attend the unveiling of the statue. That is her level.

McGinniss has Rice confirming the one-night stand. Additionally, the Enquirer says Sarah had a six-month affair with Todd's business partner Brad Hanson, and that that affair led to the dissolution of the men's snowmobile dealership (but not, clearly, the Palin marriage).
Perhaps they were kept together by the drugs, which Sarah and Todd were both, McGinniss writes, fans of: "before Palin became Alaska governor she was seen snorting cocaine off an overturned 55-gallon oil drum while snowmobiling with pals." He also quotes "a Palin family friend as saying that husband Todd Palin also snorted coke, describing him as 'on the end of the straw plenty.'"

Page 5: Here I learn something I didn't know and, if I were Sarah Palin, something I wouldn't want anyone to know. But Sarah hustles this fact to the front of the book because she sure as hell wants us to know it: Sarah surprised Todd with a "nice, needed, powerful gun" for Christmas in 2012. It was a "small act of civil disobedience," Palin writes, prompted by "the anti-gun chatter coming from Washington."What was inspiring that anti-gun chatter in Washington in December of 2012? Oh, right: Twenty children and six teachers were shot dead in their classrooms by a deranged asshole with a "powerful gun." And before the grieving mothers and fathers of Newtown, Connecticut, could put their dead children in the ground, Sarah Palin ran out gun shopping. Buying Todd a gun in the wake of the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary was "fun," Palin writes—and, again, an act of "civil disobedience." Because gun nuts are a persecuted minority.This paragraph about gun shopping in December of 2012—one first grader at Sandy Hook was shot 11 times—ends with Palin bragging about her tits. I'm not kidding.

Palin's moment has passed. She's got her coterie of ardent fans, but it isn't quite big enough for her antics to register on national politics any more - in spite of her continuing to register on the national media, due to her entertainment value and a certain nostalgia for her heyday on the part of the press.

Todd Palin appears to have filed for divorce from former Alaska governor and one-time vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin, his wife of 31 years.In a document filed Friday in Anchorage Superior Court, Todd Palin, 55, asked to dissolve the marriage, citing an “incompatibility of temperament between the parties such that they find it impossible to live together as husband and wife.”The divorce filing uses initials rather than full names, but identifies the couple’s marriage date and the birth date of their only child who is a minor, Trig Palin. The filing asks for joint legal custody of the child.Anchorage attorney Kimberlee Colbo is representing Todd Palin in the divorce. In a filing, Colbo said she would ask the court to designate the divorce confidential as it moves forward.
