Sarah Palin should be used to defending herself against public criticism – and with all the practice she’s had over the past few years, you’d think she’d have learned to be a little more diplomatic with her responses.
After being asked a series of questions by an unidentified woman in Alaska (including the question “in what way are you fighting for that?” in reference to Palin’s comments on fighting for free speech), Sarah got a little defensive and ended up rolling her eyes immediately after the woman revealed she was a teacher.
Check out the video for yourself below but I think it’s very clear that the former VP candidate rolled her eyes.
Regardless, Palin came to her own defense again, writing this intelligent and insightful statement on her Facebook page:
“Yes, it’s come to this: the media is now trying to turn my eyebrow movements into story lines. (Maybe that’s why Botox is all the rage – if you can’t move your eyebrows, your ‘eye rolling’ can’t be misinterpreted!)”
Sarah claims to hate the media attention but was “honored” when the teacher from Homer Alaska (who was standing with a huge sign that read “Worst Governor Ever” on it) referred to her as a celebrity.
Sarah Palin contradicting herself? That is both shocking and unheard of.
Here’s the video of the incident:
The question remains: Did Sarah Palin roll her eyes or not?

Pretty, petite populist princess Sarah Palin was patient and polite to a rude rhinoceros who was publicity-planted by serial Palin-basher Shannyn Moore.

What's more is that Sarah is the one who sought out the teacher and then her goon squad ripped down the sign - on private property!

"Pretty, petite populist princess Sarah Palin" about says it all, if she was short and fat the Republicans would never have had any interest in her.

I love the WWE hand movements and gestures by the Palin clan. That was Bristol wasn't it? Chiming in while smacking her gum?

I'm not a Sarah Palin fan by any means, and I do think that she made a mistake by approaching this woman. But, the video only showed me that she said "Oh..." and looked over at her co-attacker. It could have meant anything.

I have never observed a media interaction with the S palin where she was asked a question and the response didnt oscillate with "ignorance: In my personal opinion this individual who would possibly be a the helm of a declining super power USA would in my personal opinion regurgitate the country down the toilet.She lives in a country about to splinter and engage in possible civil war, this in my opinion is not the individual the world country, state, county, shire or pup tent needs at its shelm or near any type of political influence I have a stray dog in my6 opinion demonstrating more itelligence and common sense as tht former pac school rep.
