Chris Wallace to Michele Bachmann: "Are you a flake?" Can I answer that?

Oooh, I do NOT think that Bachmann enjoyed that question!

"Well I think that would be insulting, to say something like that."

Really? Because Wallace JUST said something like that.  So if she were to be insulted you would think THIS would be the time. I don't believe she is completely connected to reality.

Chris Wallace tries to convince Jon Stewart that Fox is not a propaganda tool for the Republican party. Anybody want to bet on how that goes?

Jon Stewart to Chris Wallace: "You're insane!"

Conan O'Brien on Sarah Palin's Paul Revere kerfuffle.

IM presents the parts of the Chris Wallace interview with Sarah Palin that got left on the cutting room floor.

"Hang on Wallace. Let Mommy's medication kick in before we get this show on the road."

"Oh yeah! That's the stuff! Bring it on girly man, the Mama Grizzly is ready to lay down some gibberish on ya!"

"No I did NOT get it wrong about Paul Revere! Let me explain something to you! Sarah Palin does NOT learn history!  History learns that it needs to change to match Sarah Palin's version of how things happened! And right now my minions are teaching that same lesson over at Paul Revere's Wikipedia page."

"Wait! Are YOU confronting me with facts that conflict with the answer I just gave you? Since when do you have the balls to do that?"

"If you try to embarass me with facts one more time Wallace I will come to your studio and use my cobra strike on you nutsack. And don't think I won't! Have you ever wondered why Todd has such a high voice?"

"Yes Piper did get a little cranky on the bus tour. But when I got her back onto the bus I calmly explained to her that this was Mommy's publicity tour, paid for by Mommy's friends, and that if she messed it up Mommy would send her back to Wasillla with the OTHER ungrateful little brats who cannot hold it together for five measly days!"

"I apologize if I stepped on any -- any of that PR that Mitt Romney needed or wanted that day. I do sincerely apologize. I didn't mean to step on anybody's toes. Did that sound sincere? Do you think Romney will buy that, the big baby, or should I do another take?"

"Did you see how big my jugs looked in that water bra? If THAT does not bring me up in the polls I don't know what will!  No really, I don't know what will?"

"Are we done? Well that went well I think.  Let me know when you want me back on your show to boost your ratings again, and next time DON'T try any of those gotcha questions! If I had not had this teleprompter, which keeps reflecting off of my fake glasses, I might have looked foolish. You guys are editing this part out right? Well gotta go, stage two of my medication just kicked in and I don't want to have to make my people change the Wikipedia page for George Washington next. Whoop, whoop! "

Palin's Chris Wallace interview. Venom, viciousness, and vindictiveness, all on display.

I just finished watching Palin's interview with Chris Wallace, and I am currently taking my usual anti-venom shots to recover. Wow, was she on a rampage or what?

She went after the President, Frank Bailey, Mitt Romney, and everybody who dares questions her intelligence. Which, I guess is everybody.

That was even uglier than usual!

I need to ask for your help in locating the video and transcript of this interview so that I can post all of it.

Thanks ahead of time.

Update: Here is the video.



(H/T tip to Bree Palin for the clip. Thank you!)

And here is the transcript. Thanks for the assist gang!

I will be adding to this post as time permits.

Update 2:

WALLACE: I got to ask you real quickly about that, though. You realized that you messed up about Paul Revere, don't you?

PALIN: You know what? I didn't mess up about Paul Revere. Here is what Paul Revere did. He warned the Americans that the British were coming, the British were coming, and they were going to try take our arms and we got to make sure that we were protecting ourselves and shoring up all of ammunitions and our firearms so that they couldn't take it.

But remember that the British had already been there, many soldiers for seven years in that area. And part of Paul Revere's ride -- and it wasn't just one ride -- he was a courier, he was a messenger. Part of his ride was to warn the British that we're already there. That, hey, you're not going to succeed. You're not going to take American arms. You are not going to beat our own well- armed persons, individual, private militia that we have. He did warn the British.

And in a shout-out, gotcha type of question that was asked of me, I answered candidly. And I know my American history.

I see that her minions, and researchers, tried to dig up answers for her to use so that made she did not seem so ignorant, but it is much too late for that.  Everybody who saw that clip KNOWS she did not have any idea what she was talking about, and trying to change history (Which apparently her people are literally doing by trying to edit Revere's Wikipedia page.) will never make her seem intelligent.

WALLACE: All right. I want to talk about a controversy because this week, Alaska officials, as you well know, are going to release thousands of pages of your e-mails as governor. Are you worried that some of those emails could be damaging?

PALIN: No, because, you know, I think every rock in the Palin household that could ever be kicked over and uncovered anything, it's already been kicked over. I don't think there's anything private in our family now. A lot of those emails obviously weren't meant for public consumption. They are between staff members. They're probably between family members.

So, you know what, I'm sure people are going to capitalize on this opportunity to go through 25,000 emails and perhaps take things out of context. (In Palin-speak that means to tell the truth about them.)They'll never truly know what the context of each one of the emails was, or each one of the issues were that I was working on that day, or in that time period.

But whatever, Chris. It's like nothing surprises me anymore. We'll keep doing what we're doing. I'm going to keep going forward with solutions that I want to see applied to this great country, the challenges that we're facing. And things like that are going to be perhaps a distraction for others. They won't distract me.

Especially since Palin is confident that the really damaging stuff has been redacted or is contained in of those 2,415 e-mails that will never see the light of day.  Remember it is HER people who are combing through these e-mails.

WALLACE: Let me just ask one follow-up in that regard, because one of your former advisers, Frank Bailey, has written a book. And in it, he says, and he uses some of your e-mails because he was the recipient of them, he says that there were times when you were unethical, that he was told to write fake letters to the editor under false names or to spend hours manipulating TV polls by voting on the phone over and over again.

PALIN: Those are complete lies, Chris. And I say it unequivocally that Frank Bailey has some ethical problems of his own. In fact, out the 25,000 employees that I was in charge of, 24,000, in Alaska, and in our large administration, and with the $14 billion that we were working on, heady things, big things were working on, only one person in the entire administration had to undergo ethics training. And it was because of blunders that this individual, Frank Bailey, would engage in, and result in.
It was Frank Bailey who still under investigation today, but making money off of taking private emails from somebody after having hoarded them for some years. It was only Frank Bailey who was ordered to undergo ethics training. So, he's got some issues.

Frank Bailey has ethical problems because he lied and broke rules ON PALIN'S BEHALF! Palin took a church going, highly ethical man, and poisoned his mind until he did things that were totally out of character for him. Which by the way, is the fate of ANYBODY that gets too close to Sister Sarah. Remember Meg Stapleton? Bill McAllister? Rebecca Mansour? Ever wonder why her kids act the way that they do?

What? Do you think all of that is just a coincidence?

And as for telling lies?  Frank Bailey has un-redacted e-mails to back up HIS version of events.  I wonder if this hypocrite is willing to put up HER e-mails, completely un-redacted, to show where Bailey lied in his book? Don't bother holding your breath.

This woman horribly damages the people that she directly comes into contact with, and she will do the same to our country.  In fact, she already has.

Palin: "I know my American history!" Okay this is just sad.

The woman can simply NEVER admit a mistake. Never!
