News Morning Newsdome: Palin caught cheating, flunks

>> Speaking at the National Tea Party convention, Sarah Palin first criticized President Obama as a "charismatic guy with a teleprompter" only then to constantly look at the notes she scribbled on her palm like a high schooler. The points she wrote on her hand in case she forgot: "Energy," "Budget cuts," "Tax" and "Lift American spirits." If you think that's bad, just imagine what was scribbled on the bottom of her shoes. (Gawker)
>> Since computer geeks are renowned for their fashion sense, Google has teamed up with designers Gary Graham and Ohne Titel to create clothes inspired by the Internet search, including a $85 t-shirt and a $300 scarf. No one loves Google that much. (the Independent)
>> U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates said today that the international community has no choice but to imposing new sanctions over Iran's nuclear program after the nation rejected previous measures from the West. Well, since there's no other choice, we should probably just invade. (Reuters)
>> More military tactics: A 27-year-old US soldier from Wash. has been accused of "waterboarding" his four-year-old daughter because she would not recite her ABCs. (Fox News)
>> And finally: Taiwan reported its biggest monthly growth in exports in more than three decades as the world economy continues to suffer. Hmm ... I wonder if Taipei has any blogging jobs for scrappy Atlanta reporters ... (the Wall Street Journal)

Extensive notes via teleprompter at virtually every public appearance = 45 min speech from seven words written on your hand? Yep, that is exactly the same. Now if SHE had a teleprompter, I would rip her, too.

Yep, anything is possible. Like thinking Gore AND Kerry really won those elections. (s)elected.... too funny
and while we r revisiting painfully obvious truths from the 2000s, there were no WMDs in iraq.
The nY times, Boston Globe and Washington Post recounted the Florida votes using every standard (hanging chad, dimpled chad, cute chad, chad at the gym etc) and all three say you are wrong. Yep, we were wrong about WMD. So were every intelligence agency in the Western world and Saddams own Generals.
Who the hell's giving advice to this train wreck? Trig? Get this dunce some competent handlers.
Palin already won one election for Obama. Hopefully, she will run and win another for him.
