Sarah Palin thanks Bush by name, but not Obama, in her speech about bin Laden’s death

May 3, 2011
By

Sarah Palin made a speech, regarding bin Laden’s death, on Monday. She thanked former President George W. Bush by name, but did not mention President Barack Obama’s name once. She acknowledged President Obama, just not by name.

Via Huffington Post;

In delivering a speech in Colorado on Monday night, Sarah Palin reacted to the death of Osama bin Laden and the path taken by the country to achieve the accomplishment.

According to multiple reports, Palin acknowledged President Barack Obama in her remarks, though not by name. She did, however, offer her thanks and appreciation to his predecessor George W. Bush.

“Yesterday was a testament to the military’s dedication in relentlessly hunting down the enemy during many years of war,” Palin said. “And we thank our president. We thank president Bush.”

    The only person who can completely win this war on terror and completely eliminate All Islamic extremist fundamentalist groups is President Sarah Palin. Islam WILL be an extinct religion in the Palin World Order and terrorism will cease to exist.

    Sarah Palin makes me sick. She is a disgusting little quitter. Nothing, NOTHING she says has any value. She purposely panders to the conspiracy theorists, birthers, tea baggers, Obama haters and frankly people who i think have no idea of what this country is TRULY all about. To hell with that dirty, smug little runt of human being.

    The only people that even give her a second thought any more is the Viagra set…and it’s not about how swell she could run a country.
    Very few thinking women ever took her seriously.

    And Bush so famously said he “didn’t think about bin Laden any more” so he gets zero credit!!

  5. RickyG on May 5, 2011 at 7:28 AM

    She is such a skank.

  6. vaughan on May 4, 2011 at 3:18 PM

    Please. Nobody cares what Palin has to say.

  7. Rosie on May 4, 2011 at 11:14 AM

    GW Bush started a war in Iraq when Iraq had NOTHING to do with 9/11. Explain that to the families who lost sons and daughters in service there. Bush admitted he stopped looking for Bin Laden years ago. He deserves no credit now.

    He got the US into a long war in Afghanistan when information stated Bin Laden was in Pakistan. Tens of thousands of Afghani civilians, including many children were maimed and killed.

    As far as the classless/clueless Palin is concerned – expect nothing from a person who has delivered nothing.

    bin Laden is dead. I am grateful to live in USA. Thanks to everyone who contributes to life as we know it in our free country.

  9. jacko on May 3, 2011 at 10:27 PM

    It amazes me how much people actually read into all this. Who gives a shit what does it matter seriously

  10. Joan Juner on May 3, 2011 at 1:26 PM

    Maybe she forgot who was president

  11. Bob on May 3, 2011 at 12:43 PM

    I hope she runs for president in 2012. It will ensure an Obama victory!

    • Palin = Quitter on May 4, 2011 at 7:33 AM

      If Palin runs for Pres., the big concern would be who her V.P. nominee would be, since she’d likely quit before her first year is done.

  12. Sara on May 3, 2011 at 12:13 PM

    She’s talking like a schoolyard bully, about 3rd grade level. No wonder her children are fucked up.

  13. Second Amendment Democrat on May 3, 2011 at 11:57 AM

    Bush gets credit for STARTING 9/11, not finishing it. Answer me this, if Bush and his cabal cronies did not know about the attack, why was there a spike in investing that made some people millions because of the attack? Random coincidence does not cut it.

    Palin gets credit for being the ditz sans witz, anything else should be filed under “gang rape the bitch.” Something I have never wished on anyone before, but it makes perfect sense – she tries to use her sexy image to sell her snake oil to increase her personal power, so replying in a power-related sexual manner is perfectly fitting. Another dangerous ignorant tool, who has been responsible for much of the hate currently if force.

    • Palin = Quitter on May 4, 2011 at 7:36 AM

      I guess I was involved, because I made money as well, although my investments were made based on different market indicators. IMO, Bush was too stupid to realize what was going on. Cheney, Rumsfeld, Ashcroft, Rove, etc., might have known, but I doubt Bush did.

  14. Addie on May 3, 2011 at 11:32 AM

    Who cares what this women says? She is a non entity and should be treated as such! Go away crazy lady. You’re 15 minutes is way over!

  15. Jibjabber on May 3, 2011 at 11:32 AM

    Let’s face it.. she’s just a petty racist.

  16. John Henry on May 3, 2011 at 10:12 AM

    She might think bush is still President. and haven’t realized that Obama is the President today date.

  17. i love my goats on May 3, 2011 at 9:44 AM

    Seriously…who cares what this ignorant woman has to say? She needs to fade into obscurity where she rightfully belongs. The sooner the better.

    • Shirley on May 25, 2011 at 5:15 PM

      Oh how I wish. Dumb bit*h like her give brunettes a bad name. Makes me want to be a blonde. She is low class and even lower IQ.

    ‎”I don’t know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don’t care. It’s not that important. It’s not our priority.” – G.W. Bush, 3/13/02

  19. galactus6x on May 3, 2011 at 9:35 AM

    Why are we still listening to the Quitter Whore?

  20. Terry in Florida on May 3, 2011 at 9:34 AM

    What an absolute nitwit! Too bad it isnt illegal to to be blatantly stupid because Sarah Palin would have a life sentence. I have many friends who were either injured for life or were killed in Iraq who would also like to thank President Bush. Thank him for a false war that cost us so much in american lives and american money. Can you only imagine a President Palin? I and many other Americans would leave this country in the highly unlikely event of that happening.

  21. Jack on May 3, 2011 at 9:27 AM

    IT is that kind of arrogance that is meant to keep the Parties Divided. Sarah Palin is an idiot and has no morals to speak of unless it furthers her goals. We should all thank Pres Obama for doing what the idiot Bush couldn’t do. The only thing we should thank Bush for is being a war monger and he need… I mean MUST!!! Pay for his war crimes, we NEVER should have been in Iraq during his time in office he proved over and over that he didn’t care about anyone but himself, look at Katrina and all those poor people that died because he refused to lift a finger

  22. Dawn on May 3, 2011 at 9:23 AM

    I don’t know why the press feels the need to give her any credence. She is no longer relevant and is a disgrace to the women of the world. Stupidity is running rampant and the media is giving it fuel!

  23. Terry on May 3, 2011 at 9:19 AM

    palin is a looser, a quitter, and apparently does not understand that bush invaded a country (Iraq) on the pretence that ben ladin was there, when in fact he knew he was not there. it was all about halliburton and oil$ the tea party poopers are nothing more than a bunch of racist bigots. they are throwback republicans that had their chance, but then after screwing things up so bad for 8 years, they go and form a militia group, so they can have another chance at it. they had 8 years and failed, times up, feed em fish heads.

    I agree, Thank Pres Obama and Pres Clinton !

  24. DiDi on May 3, 2011 at 8:56 AM

    I am not so sure she was referring to President Obama when she said “our president.” I think she was calling President Bush our president.

    • Carol on May 3, 2011 at 11:10 AM

      Sarah who……oh yes she was that dumb chick who thought she was going to be Vice President along side some idiot who thought the White House would be his new residence, and that she would be the one to get the votes and put him there!! The stupidity of these people is laughable, accept there are some that take them seriously.

  25. Joan Sinclair on May 3, 2011 at 8:54 AM

    Sarah Palin is the rudest person around. She has no class or upbringing,

  26. Sue on May 3, 2011 at 8:34 AM

    Who really Cares what Sarah Palin says? o.o who even listened to her? she cant read….

  27. Brad on May 3, 2011 at 8:20 AM

    IT is that kind of arrogance that is meant to keep the Parties Divided.. Thank Pres Obama and Pres Clinton. Bush was Given plans for this same attack by Pres Clinton, But Bush dismissed them due to his own arrogance. Palin has the same Ignorant mindset as Bush.. ….Thank God She ( palin ) will Never be Elected.
    The only people who like her ( teaparty and kkk ) are just as ignorant as she is ……. I say Thank You Pres Obama ad the Men who carried out the attack plan..

    • Sue on May 3, 2011 at 8:36 AM

      i agree! thats what i have been telling people but nope thier ignorance kicks in -__-

    • zaliana on June 2, 2011 at 8:01 AM

      Brad, I think the intelligent people are becoming the minority. Unfortunately stupid is becoming the majority. I am sad to say that Palin could always have the chance in this country, not other countries but indeed in ours where stupid rules. Im so sad. Indeed she and her followers are a ignorant

  28. Mark Grantham on May 3, 2011 at 8:20 AM

    The last I knew, President Bush was living in Texas, and no longer the President of the United States of America. President Obama is the current President! I caution many to not get complacent at this time, the death of bin Laden does not allow the feeling of smugness or complacency.
    Mrs. Palin only gives more evidence to the theory “birds of a feather flock together”. Yes, President deserves some credit, but to blatantly ignore the name of the current President is inane! The policies or decisions of the President might not be agreed with, but this man is the president of America, like it or not!

    • Joe from Oregon on May 3, 2011 at 10:15 PM

      Very well said and with respect. Thank you.

  29. Jeff on May 3, 2011 at 8:18 AM

    My cousin Nat, who died in Iraq after he enlisted to go after Bin Laden thanks Bush also. Palin, hold your breath for one hour…..PLEASE.

    • Doug on May 3, 2011 at 10:59 PM

      My condolences to you for your loss.

  30. Willy Githard on May 3, 2011 at 8:12 AM

    Sarah Palin is neither newsworthy, or worth commenting on!
    Please don’t waste you or our time anymore!
