“We’re anti-radical feminist. We don’t have this victim mentality and we embrace gender differences as a good thing.”
“She shot a moose. That’s awesome.”
“We still have 47 states to go, or if you’re Barack Obama we still have 54 states to go.”

FYI, Palin is referring to this.
Aw, well isn’t that … nauseating.
“If I had to vote in South Carolina, in order to keep this thing going I’d vote for Newt and I would want this to continue,”
Roger Ailes got super pissed at Sarah Palin
This is great:
Sarah Palin’s announcement that she wouldn’t run for president disappointed her legions of admirers — but it infuriated Roger Ailes. The Fox News chief wasn’t angry about the decision itself. Rather, he was livid that Palin made the October 5 announcement on Mark Levin’s conservative talk-radio program, robbing Fox News of an exclusive and a possible ratings bonanza. Fox was relegated to getting a follow-up interview with Palin on Greta Van Susteren’s 10 p.m. show, after the news of Palin’s decision had been drowned out by Steve Jobs’s death. Ailes was so mad, he considered pulling her off the air entirely until her $1 million annual contract expires in 2013.
“Hank Williams and what he is going through now, I think it’s a very clear illustration of a greater societal problem and that is the hypocrisy on the left — the liberals who can throw these stones at a conservative and they knowing that they’re not going to be held accountable.”

“Steve Jobs was certainly not a singular man. He was not an—he was an island that touched so many people.”
Sarah Palin in an interview with Fox News’ Greta van Susteren, Oct. 5, 2011
uummm, I just don’t know … uummm yeah, I got nothing.
“When I asked the question about what do you read, I was curious. It was just kind of a spontaneous question. I thought, gee I’m interested. She has such strong political views. Her ideology is so [dramatic pregnant pause] specific. I wanted to know what she read on a regular basis that helped shape her world view.”
Later in the interview, Couric recalled, Palin told her that “People in Alaska read. I was quite aware that people in Alaska read. I still, to this day, don’t understand why she wouldn’t answer that question straight on. I think she was just done with me at that point.”

“I hired Sarah Palin because she was hot and got ratings.”

"Palin bio was not selling fast, so naturally she threatens to sue and gets it more attention." - @daveweigel
“Well, he’s got his priorities skewed, really, Greta — and I take it literally that he was getting ready for, packing for vacation, while here it was Secretary Clinton asking on behalf of the United States of America for another president of another country to step down — that is our president’s role,” the former Alaska governor told Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren.
“This is another example of President Obama leading from behind — makes you scratch your head and wonder what really does he do?”
…he’s stepping back and allowing Hillary Clinton to basically carry the water for our entire nation.
“And I’ll bet you, Greta, going out on a limb … but I just think that after a day like this, where you saw that kind of presidential aura of Hillary Clinton as she made that announcement today, while Barack Obama was packing to head out for 10 days on vacation again to go golf and tickle his feet in the sand — I’ll bet you people, if they had to do it over again, who had that choice at that time in the Democrat primary between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama — I bet you today, they are saying: ‘We should have gone with Hillary Clinton.’”
BI: Sarah Palin: I Don’t Think Newsweek’s Cover Of Michele Bachmann Was Sexist
Here’s what Palin told Fox’s Megyn Kelly when she brought up the cover:
Every candidate is going to be vetted I think now so more than ever because we learned a lesson with electing a president who was not vetted by the mainstream media. And basically we’re asking now ‘what did we get out of that?’…so I think there’s going to be a lot of vetting and some will interpret that because a female candidate will be vetted the same as a man or even more so as being sexist. I don’t know if I would characterize it as sexist. I would just characterize it as being the new normal. In a way it’s quite healthy though, again, learning a lesson from electing Barack Obama.
