Thursday episode of “American Chopper” on TLC features an interview with Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R), who is leaning against a bear skin in her office. Hosts Paul Sr. and Paul Jr. are visiting Alaska to create a bike to help commemorate Alaska’s 50th anniversary of statehood. Some highlights from the interview:
Q: So you snowmobile?
PALIN: Oh yeah. Snow machine. Yes.
Q: What kind of snowmobile do you got?
PALIN: We’ve got an Arctic Cat. We’ve got a couple of different kinds. Race machines. I inherit whatever Todd rejects from the year prior. … We love those motor sports.PALIN: You do so many good things for some of the other states, also. You’ve got that patriotism in you that people just so respect. Thank you for that.
ThinkProgress obtained a copy of the interview. Watch it here:
She’s got that grammar in her that us just can’t fathom!
April 29th, 2009 at 5:51 pmThis is a wasted thread. I like bashing Palin, but there should be some political relevance to doing so. This is just silliness from her on a silly show.
April 29th, 2009 at 5:53 pmwho is this skank and why is she on TLC?
April 29th, 2009 at 5:53 pmcan someone here bridge for me the logic leap performed by this trollop? it’s not like they serve in the armed forces…they build freakin motorcycles.
by the way, what are the chances TAAAHHHHHHHDDDDDD has seen governor gidget’s naked ass on that bearskin rug?
April 29th, 2009 at 5:54 pmNo relevance to politics here.
April 29th, 2009 at 5:55 pmRegardless of political relevance, I am offended by the way she’s leaning on the dead bear.
April 29th, 2009 at 5:59 pmAfter Palin is done with being Governor, will she take a job more to her skill set…like turning letters on Wheel of Fortune?
April 29th, 2009 at 6:02 pmlet’s start a rumor:
April 29th, 2009 at 6:03 pmgovernor gidget is into necrophiliac bestiality. the picture above proves it
Does someone want to translate that into English for us?
April 29th, 2009 at 6:03 pmWhat the hell is American Chopper? I recently saw a goof on some stupid shit that must be related on an episode of King of the Hill… Who cares
April 29th, 2009 at 6:05 pmWhat a cheap and easy date RePugniScum she is…
April 29th, 2009 at 6:05 pmPalin is such a tool!
April 29th, 2009 at 6:06 pmThat bear is probably thinking: “Please God, get her away from me!”
April 29th, 2009 at 6:07 pm~~~~~~memories of handing McCain his ‘mercan choppers in a glass~~~~~~~~
April 29th, 2009 at 6:09 pmAlso, too, didja see how she was eyeing that guy’s moustache? She was already picturing it affixed to the bear’s upper lip.
April 29th, 2009 at 6:09 pmTrue. The picture clearly shows that the bear is gagging or puking.
April 29th, 2009 at 6:09 pmthe guys from american chopper should have tossed a bit of “gotcha journalism” her way and asked, “what’s the difference between a snowmobile and a snow machine”?
April 29th, 2009 at 6:10 pmOf course, she misses the point. Yes, we want the image of a big, mean guy like Teutul Sr. as the military or a bouncer, but you bring them in AFTER you ask the rogue nation or drunk, politely but firmly, to act properly or leave. She, and the Republicans, wants us to use force FIRST.
April 29th, 2009 at 6:10 pmOnly gaffe is it should have been a polar bear. That would make this an epic fail instead of just fail.
April 29th, 2009 at 6:12 pmMore wingnuttery from the bimbo from Alaska.

Nah, it just shows us that Sarah Palin goes to the governor’s office and buys crap on eBay all day.
Why else would she do “Alaskan business” from a Yahoo e-mail account?

Where’s PETA when they’re not throwing a sh!t-fit over whether a puppy was adopted or bought?
April 29th, 2009 at 6:15 pmNice.
I would ask, “How many “American Choppers” do you ownand ride up there in Alaska?”
April 29th, 2009 at 6:17 pmDespite her looks and moronic remarks, Governor Palin insisted that there was no history of mental retardation in her family.
April 29th, 2009 at 6:19 pmAnybody I see sucking up to Palin like that automatically loses any credibility they had.
April 29th, 2009 at 6:22 pmThanks to Republican opportunists, does the word “patriotism” even have meaning anymore? It’s starting to sound more like a cliche than anything. Read what she just said there…what the hell does that even mean? They build bikes! Sure they donate them to charity at times, and seem like cool guys, but how does that translate to having the patriotism that other people respect? WTF?
You know who has patriotism people respect? Jared from Subway. The way he eats those sandwiches…man, patriotism city!
April 29th, 2009 at 6:22 pmWhy couldn’t the bear have won?
April 29th, 2009 at 6:22 pmThat’s because she doesn’t know what big words like that mean.

she prefers the “polite term” they use up there in the tundra: pack of inbreds
April 29th, 2009 at 6:25 pmWhat’s the big deal? Other than them being tards-tards.
I saw those yokels standing behind mooseyak at one of her racist rallies. the mcchimpy klan was there too.
paul deen is a repug too.
It all fits in y’all.
April 29th, 2009 at 6:28 pmWhy is Caribou Barbie talking about snowmobiles on a motorcycle show?
April 29th, 2009 at 6:29 pmPalin who?
April 29th, 2009 at 6:36 pm“what’s the difference between a snowmobile and a snow machine?”
An accurate mechanical description, versus Alaskan intellectual conceit, such as it is. That way they can tell real Alaskans from lower-state trash, by the terminology.
April 29th, 2009 at 6:38 pmPlease let Sarah lapse back into well-deserved obscurity. We have more important matters to occupy our time.
April 29th, 2009 at 6:45 pmNobody cares about the American choppers guys anymore, same thing goes for palin.
April 29th, 2009 at 6:46 pmYeah, but Palin would make a great bike chick because she has a sister-in-law who can score all the drugs for the gang! And she and Cindy McCain can go to biker rallies and enter wet T-bagger shirt contest…after they pray together as born again bikers.
April 29th, 2009 at 7:00 pmWeedoggies, ain’t 1210 gonna’ be special? I’m so excited!
MAN! You city dwellers NEVER get out of the basement. If one of you actually left the city for a while you would come in contact with a whole new world as foreign as any planet in this or any other galaxie. Some here cant even understand what she is talking about, this is sad, very sad. You are amazing to watch. If you ever venture a few miles from your bith place or to where the normal people live a traveling EMT with a set of paddles and a large box of Huggies would be a very good idea.
April 29th, 2009 at 7:07 pmIt’s coming…….guarnateed!
April 29th, 2009 at 7:07 pmHey Slappy we’ve all been to the hills. You doublewide dwellers ought to go to the big city sometime. We have tall buildings with these things called elevators. It would be like a free carnival ride and I’m sure the carnival doesn’t get to your town every year.
My point is we know what she means, we’re just laughing at her and you. /eyeroll
April 29th, 2009 at 7:11 pmEver been to Alaksa Slappy Bastinado? Lovely place. Lots of liberal potheads though…
April 29th, 2009 at 7:11 pmSymphony orchestras and art museums are neat urban things too…
April 29th, 2009 at 7:13 pmShayne. Sorry that real estate prices were a little to high for your budget out here…….I would have kicked in a couple hrs work and some equipment time to get you settled though.

========================================
Thats true, as quiet as the forest is most times the sounds of animal killing and eating each other can be annoying………….
April 29th, 2009 at 7:18 pmI quess you just have to have a greater “Sense of Wonder” to appreciate the wonders of nature. So about your experiences in Alaska. Which areas to you get to explore? I realize it is the pennisula but I really dig the sounds of the Tsongass

===========================================
Yes, spent about a month in Soldotna….nice place in the summer……come to think about it I did see a few of the locals laying around in the bushes and stuff, weird!
Sorry I ment panhandle obviously. It is sort of like that “Monster Island” thing. So how far do you think that might be from where I was born in miles….
April 29th, 2009 at 7:25 pmWhat kind of porno is this? Where’s the actual gangbang? And cuckhold Todd?
April 29th, 2009 at 7:26 pmNow Slappy Bastinado as it seems your travel experiences lack what one might call diversity you might wish toknow that most city dwellers have not basements. It is sort of like the “basement at the Allamo”if you know what I mean…
April 29th, 2009 at 7:28 pmWell, I have been to the airport in Anchorage and they have a few dead, and quite large, bears on display.
Its a hunter/fisher state, no doubt.
April 29th, 2009 at 7:36 pmWell, lots of potheads, its legal to grow up to two plants there IIRC
April 29th, 2009 at 7:38 pmSlappy thinks we can’t afford to move into his trailer park.
April 29th, 2009 at 8:47 pmI keep thinking I am going to wake up one day and this whole Sarah Palin shit will have been an absurd joke.
Just the fact that she is leaning on some sort of dead animal after recently being photographed in front of the slaughter of a turkey proves that this chick is just a joke…..a big ass Alaskan joke.

It’s “galaxy.”
But I’m going to get your back this time. Y’all just don’t get country folk. Remember that interview she gave while some guy was decapitating turkeys behind her? She knew about that. She allowed the reporter to suggest the shot (to “give a sense of place”). She didn’t care.
Because country folk don’t see anything in the least bit shameful in killing animals either by farming or hunting. It isn’t disgusting to them in any way, it’s just where your food (and whatever) comes from.
If you’re the ones who are disgusted by where stuff you consume comes from, then they’re not the ones with the problem.
If you’ve ever grown up in any school with a significant 4-H club, you know what I’m talking about.
This isn’t a Palin thing in particular. Everywhere below a certain population density – but especially out West – totally groks this. Freaking out because someone has a bearskin or an elk head or because turkeys or pigs or buffalo are being slaughtered, is just plain silly.
April 29th, 2009 at 10:57 pmDo I have it right:
Riding noisy machines that make the buildings shake is patriotic.
Going to museums and concerts is socialist. (And we KNOW how supportive Stalin was with artists that he didn’t like).
April 30th, 2009 at 12:27 amYou know what I’d love to see? I’d love to see that magnificent animal behind her spring back to it’s short, interrupted life and snap her head off. Yeah, I’d like to see that.
April 30th, 2009 at 1:37 amIs the dead bear a joke? I can’t believe 46% of the nation voted for this woman.

How can the people of Alaska not be embarrassed by this goofball?

Stop with your fcuking spamming. We don’t give a shit about your crappy site, nor can the majority of us read it anyway. Go away.
April 30th, 2009 at 9:08 amMAN! You city dwellers NEVER get out of the basement. If one of you actually left the city for a while you would come in contact with a whole new world as foreign as any planet in this or any other galaxie.
Geez…As a Canadian I have traveled through your country (US). From California to Florida , from New York to Ohio , from the Carolina’s to the mid west and I can tell you THE ONLY AMERICANS WHO HAVE NO IDEA OF WHAT THE WORLD IS ABOUT ARE THE REPUGS (OR AS WE LIKE TO SAY IN CANADA, THE REDNECKS, WHITE TRASH OF AMERICA). Even your former President had NEVER BEEN OUT OF THE COUNTRY UNTIL SUCH TIME HE BECAME PRESIDENT!!!THAT PROVES MY POINT!!!!
This is not just my opinion, ask any tourist who has traveled your great country. I can point out a repug in the same way any American can point out a black person.
