Fox Boss: Sarah Palin is an idiot

sarah palin is an idiot, roger ailes, ailes palin idiot

According to the latest, in the wake of President Obama’s 2008 win, Roger Ailes successfully built up Fox News’ ratings and raked in $900 million last year—but he still hasn’t found a 2012 candidate to throw his weight behind, according to an extensive New York magazine cover story. “You can’t run for the Republican nomination without talking to Roger,” one source tells author Gabriel Sherman, who the Daily Beast notes is writing a book on Fox News. “Every single candidate, including idiot Sarah Palin, has consulted with Roger,” but he’s not impressed with any of them. “He finds flaws in every one,” says another source—particularly Sarah Palin.

“He thinks Palin is an idiot,” says another source. “He thinks she’s stupid. He helped boost her up. People like Sarah Palin haven’t elevated the conservative movement.” The piece paints Ailes as someone who’s very serious about politics, speaking almost daily with George HW Bush, and notes that his ideal candidate would be Chris Christie or David Petraeus. Sherman includes all sorts of behind-the-scenes anecdotes, including the fact that Michelle Obama particularly despises Sean Hannity and that Ailes found Glenn Beck “uncontrollable” and his show “too religious.”

What do you think?  Is Sarah Palin really an idiot or is Sarah Palin just misunderstood?  Let us know by leaving a comment!

She took advantage of her opportunity. The American way. She can now buy and sell you and me. Success by all accounts.

I sense you’re bitter because McCain or Obama didn’t ask you to be their vice president Eddie. There was a good reason. You’re no Sarah Palin.

A woman who aimed high. She is economically successful and her fame has brought security to her family. Your liberal hero John Edwards ran for vice president and lost. Hillary Clinton ran for president and lost.

Losing and election doesn’t make somebody a failure.

She stopped parading her sick baby around yet? Conducted a successful open press conference? Conducted an hostile one on one interview? Would she had been picked if McCain wasn’t looking for former Clinton voters to defect? What has she done to warrant being admired? She isn’t the 1st female governor or vice president candidate. Writing a book based on lies, persecution complex, and self glorification?

A former governor and vice presidential candidate with best selling books to her name also. I’d say Mrs. Palin is far smarter than those who have insulted in this comment section so far.

1) A former governor that QUIT
2) A vice-presidential candidate that DESTROYED McCain’s election chances
3) A book revolving around said FAILURES

Is this something to be proud of?

If Palin is really an idiot then be afraid…be very afraid…

President Palin…..oh dear…if she’s really an idiot it could actually happen…

…better she wasn’t an idiot if you ask me…not that you did but when did that ever stop me eh?

Obama may be many things but….as a staunch ‘right winger’ ‘in English terms’ I like him. I believe he is as honest as he can be in his exaulted position. That is worth so much.

Keep him America or you’ll get an idiot.

Just because Sarah Palin refuses to be “in bed” with any of the established politicians or pundants, just because she is her own person unmovable, and just because she won’t kiss a$$, you overwhelmingly stupid sick in the head libs who haven’t yet grown up and never will think she’s the stupid one. You pitiful t$rds.

Wow, seriously delusional. Ever checked up what she was doing at Fox News? Remember what she was in 2008 relative to one of the most established politician in the US Congress? Refuse to be “in bed” my ass, pitiful t*rds.

You little sh$t. You have no evidence that Palin was sleeping around. Not even a hint of a clue. It’s just in that little childish mind of yours. You think that just because you would and probably have slept with you own kin, that all people are like you. You fein.

Try reading your own post from less than an hour earlier before you try playing victim. Now, guess where the “in bed” quote came from 😀 my dear “little sh$t”.

All I can say is try hard to grow up some more. You can’t even stay on topic with slinging insults.

Oh, wow. Just wow. You threw a tantrum after I said “in bed” in response to your over glorifying of that idiot. I merely pointed out that the words came out of your own post (which is where “little sh$t” came from too in case you are wondering). Now you are telling me to “grow up” and to get back on topic? Amusing 😀

As an Englishman who couldn’t really give a fuck I am starting to like you Eddie…You say what you think and that’s unusual in America…at least on MMA it is (as much as I love MMA)…you say what you think here and you possibly get ‘removed’….

…shut up Holty before you start….

You go Eddie! – as a ‘victim’ of your verocity (is that a word?) in a previous post or two I quite like you old bean.

All the best from England Eddie….Be you and stay true mate!!!

I hope that doesn’t get you barred…;-)

Are you a complete idiot or do you just write like one? Sarah Palin is an empty vessel, and only those who worship at her feet refuse to believe it. So, get your dictionary out and try to write words that I can understand.

Palin is an idiot in many respects. I have to respect and admire her use of idiocy to makes boatloads of money though.

I’ve often lamented how much I could have made by blogging as a righty and repeating the same nonsense that Palin does.
Alas’ my honesty and good nature keep me broke.
