Here is Katie Couric running through a script about Sarah Palin the day John McCain picked her as his running mate and—OH NO—she says the same thing about Sarah Palin’s children that has been said by every person ever. Why does she hate Trig so much? Stop making fun of him, Katie! See, she hates Sarah Palin, and that’s why Palin couldn’t answer her questions when she interviewed her. It makes so much sense now! Sarah Palin isn’t dumb! Katie Couric just hated her!
Conservatives4Palin has the full video. “This video also shows Couric taking a shot at female basketball players and at Governor Palin’s hometown, one of the fastest growing areas in the country, and the fifth largest city in Alaska.” Yeah, it does none of those things. She actually corrects a male editor for previously implying that basketball was a masculine thing to do. And then later she couldn’t pronounce “Wasilla,” like every other person on Earth at that time who wasn’t from Wasilla. You didn’t know how to pronounce it either, Conservatives4Palin. It is not an important place. It’s actually the fourth-largest “city” in Alaska! But it only has 10,256 people, for fuck’s sake. [Conservatives4Palin]

I’m sure that Katie now recognizes, as we all do, that A MIGHTY WIND swept out of Wasilla and wowed us all.
Also, Wasilla is the Boca Raton of the North.
[re=631992]chascates[/re]: Wasilla means Mouth of the Rat in Eskimo? Who knew?
“Where does she get these names?” How horribly racist. It’s exactly like when Hitler put Jews in jail under “protective custody” after Kristallnacht.
WTF is shocking? My great grandma had almost the same reaction to hearing her children’s names.
Miss Katie can be cruel.
[re=631992]chascates[/re]: “Wasilla” is Inuit for “Rat’s Mouth?” Makes sense.
I do like the idea of conservatards moving from just plain ol’ lying to stone makin’ things up.
Possibly the stupidest sentence in an article choked with them: “Once again Sarah Palin has been vindicated.” That one sentence is not meant to be funny. But it pretty much sums up C4P’s wingnut worldview.
Where the fuck *did* she get those names from? What the boys had to have names that started w/ T and one syllable like the rather unimaginative “Todd”? Couric’s not making fun of the kids, she’s making fun of the parents…and who doesn’t?
Observing aloud that the names Trig and Track are out of the ordinary? I smell a scandal. Oh wait, she said “where do they come up with these names!” in a clearly disrespectful tone. Was that a laugh? It sounded like the suppression of a laugh to me. For shame, Katie, for shame!
This just made my day. She’s going along just reading her script and you think, “so where’s the controversy?” But after mentioning Trig, and Trunk, and Track, and Trump, Katie finally stops and laughs and says, “Where the hell do they get these names?” Hilarious.
this is clearly proof of librul mediaz.
Since the World As We Know It is about to end . . .
Can I do a Mass Corona Ejection into Katie’s face?

So what happened to that oldest son – Trucker or Tooter or whatever his name is – that went off to end the war with the terrorists? Did he come back to Wasilly? Is his girlfriend pregnant? Did she have sex with Levi? o.m.g. That’s the reason for the Bristol/Levi breakup!! I’m calling US Weekly or whatever rag that was that paid those 2 for their engagement/heartbreak stories.
What, Katie didn’t know what trisomy G is? (Does she know now?)
“Trig” is short for “trigonometry,” Sarah Palin’s favorite subject at MIT.
I like how the wignuts have to try and defend their queen’s hysterical mangling of the Couric interview by claiming she was too mean when all Couric did was ask very basic, simple questions that Palin was too dumb to answer properly.
Trig and Track are only two of the classes that Secessionist Sarah failed in high school.
Alright, picture this: You are a professional news journalist. You are handed copy to read with the names Trig, Track, Piper, and Willow. You are to remain stone faced. You are to betray your natural tendency to say what the fuck. Journalism 101, people. Katie fails.
and how come no one ever talks about babble spass’s kids from her first marriage: tripe, tranq, and tramp? you never hear about them. it’s odd.
Sarah should have been writing some names of newspapers on the palm of her hand while Katie was laughing at the absurdity of the Palin kids’ names. Then she would have super-double-vindicated.
Yes well I guess making fun of bizare names is now so horrible, right wingnuts? I mean…how many times have we heard this, “Barack Hussein Obama” : giggle :, then followed by some diatribe about his middle name proving he’s muslin and the anti-christ and blah, blah, blah. I’ll bet these very idiots who’s panties are so in a bunch over Katie Couric doing what all non-authoritarians do, laugh at Sarah Palin’s rednecked naming of her children have made fun of Anthony Weiner’s last name; I’ll wager these very idiots have NEVER used President Obama’s name to ridicule him with, either. What’s moreover is Obama’s name ACTUALLY SOUNDS GOOD…all this does is vindicate my hippy parents for my name..at least they didn’t name me Trig or Track or Tractor or Shitballs (that’s Trig’s family nickname not his full name, oops).
Oh and making fun of her being mayor of some backwater hamlet is so HORRIBLE, huh? Yes I’ll remember that the next time “community organizer” is followed by : giggle :. Fucking hypocrits, every breath they draw is just more of paradox for reality.
…and it is not as if anyone ever mentioned Barry’s funny name.

She showed more restraint than Wonkett would of. At no time did she mention Track’s nutz.
Wow. A whole super-long paragraph “defense” of Dame Snowbilly? Really, C4P, you could’ve just summed it up with a well-placed “Oh yea, Katie? Well, yo mama.”
After all this time, all these years, it is still amazingly frustrating to watch the stupid be stupid.
KATIE COURIC RAPED AND MURDERED A YOUNG GIRL IN 1990. ALSO.
The fact that Sarah Palin continues to have millions of devoted followers is living proof that American politics has been permanently and irreversibly overtaken by complete idiots. Debates over differences in policy and political philosophy are to be expected between the two parties, and in fact that is the hallmark of a robust democracy. But in recent years, the Democrats have been left with the unenviable task of governing while at the same time defending themselves from illogical half-truths and outright lies from the right. Charges of death panels, invalid birth certificates, communist/socialist/fascist government takeovers, revoking 2nd amendment rights, are just a few of the revelations coming out of the Conservative camp. And leading the way is this uneducated, dishonest, overly ambitious nitwit. We’ve truly entered into the dark age of American politics. Oh wait…that wasn’t funny or snarky.
“…one of the fastest growing areas in the country, and the fifth largest city in Alaska…”
That says a lot about Alaska, and ‘merica as a whole. Though, they’re probably both lies, which also says a lot.
MAMA GRIZZLIES!
Good Morning Wonkette!
Is this tempest in a chamberpot just another Reichwing attempt to divert the news-cycle from Obama announcing something important or beneficial? My Senior-Bear pointed out that Monday, the same day your news was OVERWHELMED with KKKonfederate Senators like Bitch McConnell suddenly, publicly musing about dismantling the 14th Amendment, President O’Bamer made a major, pre-scheduled address regarding his Iraq Withdrawal Timeline – big news, good news, long-awaited news indeed… UNLESS the ReThugs could find something to draw the media’s attention away… and it seems they did! Again…
[re=632025]Serolf Divad[/re]: Trig is short for “Trisomy G”, which is from the first line of the Wikipedia entry on Down syndrome. In other words, Sarah was making fun of Little Tri-G from day one.
In some ways, there’s not much difference between a granny in her 40s who wants to be taken seriously but names her kids with any available noun and a woman in her 50s who wants to be taken seriously but still calls herself “Katie.”
At least Barry gets his funny name honest. Everybody has unusual names up the family tree, if that’s what they want for their kids, without resorting to ‘Trigg’, ‘Track’, ‘Cessna’ and ‘Ling-Temco-Vought’…
Video no worky no mo! Wha hoppen?
Did I miss something? Has there been a flood of newborns in this country being Trig, Track, Bristol, etc.? I would say that this a indicator that most of America are saying WTF? were these retards thinking off.
Wah-See-Yuh
Um, I think ya woulda had more credibility on the subject of Palin’s kids’ names if you’d read all of ‘em, Katie.
All of ‘em.
[re=632073]Sparky McGruff[/re]: Wow, that’s interesting if true. I’m going to have to tell that to my daughter, Apgar Five.
[re=632073]Sparky McGruff[/re]: Yeah, well, thst ain’t what Conservapedia says.
“Soak a toe”, Libtards!
[re=632032]slappypaddy[/re]: You forgot about the other kid from her first marriage, Toot.
Also according to Wikipedia, ‘Wasilla’ is Inuit for ‘Hookworm’, which may be another clue in the Sarah Palin Hookworm debate which seems to be raging all over the internet today.
How did this get leaked? Whose voice do we hear towards the end, speaking to Katie, saying, “I’m going to put this on Youtube?”
[re=632098]Extemporanus[/re]: It’a “that”, saahole.
There’s obviously some confusion about the derivation of the names of the kids.
Piper: An agglomeration of “pipe ‘er” or “pipe her”, which is what Scrod…er…Todd says he’s going to do to Sarah when it’s time for yet another of the brood to be borned. As an oil man, he likes to lay the pipe, you see.
Bristol: Another play on words, employing irony to goof on anti-Semitism by referring to his uncut cock as a “briss”tol. You have to work deep into this one to see the genius.
Track: This one mystifies even me, but I’m fairly certain it refers to the telltale stains on the sheet after some “one in the stink” activity. Yes, don’t ask, I’m grossed out by it as badly as you are.
Trig: This is Todd’s pre-ejaculatory exclamation, when he wants Sarah to “pull the trigger” of his “brisstol” (second knuckle at prostate depth) when he’s about to spaff and spawn.
Okay, so I’m about to be banned permanently from this site for the foregoing. So what, at least I can say I set the record straight before going down in flames.
[re=632073]Sparky McGruff[/re]:
Holy shit… that’s frighteningly awful if true.
[re=632001]weejee[/re]: They have about eighteen ways to say that, but, yeah, Wasilla is one of them.
It’s spelled Wasilla. But it’s pronounced NobodygivesafuckPalinyoucunt.
[re=632031]RoscoePColtraine[/re]: Hey, give her a break! She was reading bullshit about Palin and not the Nixon Enemies List on live television.
[re=632073]Sparky McGruff[/re]: That’s the story I’m sticking with. The bitch should be asked a question about that name every single media appearance the rest of her life. God won’t punish the stupid, so the press has to do it for her/him/it.
Wait. Wait. We haven’t seen the Andrew Breitbart edited version where Katie Couric admits that she is a Muslin loving, white person hating, atheist from outer space who wants to suck the blood out of god-fearing Republicans.
[re=632110]Weeping Jesus[/re]: that is an inspired piece of deductive etymology. there is a place in the national intelligence apparatus for you.
I thought conservatives were supposed to be so tough? Yet a simple comment about Mama Malprop, Queen of the Grizzlies–where did they come up with these names– injures their delicate sensibilities.
Several states are threatening to secede these days. Why can’t we get all the Palinistas and teabaggers into Tennessee or Texas or some other state and let `em? Personally, I would love to see a state where the teabaggers are the law. These political pimples would make sharia law look like Emily Post etiquette tips.
I love the college repubs acting all offended and pretending this is some sort of a “GOTCHA!”. We have complained about non-gotcha-gotcha-journalism before, of course, in reference to the Army of Breitbartness, but this is especially funny because it’s *so horribly lame*. What kind of kid actually finds this shocking / titilating?
Yeah, hater Couric made fun of the slaughter & plunder of Native Americans when she was at NBC. So perky! Tee-hee.
The logic here is also sort of amusing, because the upshot is that politicians should never have to answer questions or do interviews with people who might not like them. WHY ARE PEOPLE MEAN TO THOSE RUNNING FOR ELECTED OFFICE? They should never actually have to enter a *confrontation*, come on!
Some mama grizzlies! Paper tigresses, is more like it.
[re=632126]Serolf Divad[/re]: It is true. In Sarah’s universe, Cheech Marin’s mother should have named him Cleft Marin.
[re=632057]Sgt. Biyatch[/re]: There’s a lot of people working in the White House. I think they’ve proven that they can pass financial reform AND produce documentary evidence of the crazy right’s lying idiocy all at once.
Oh, wait. Shirley Sherrod. Yeah, okay, they can only do one thing at a time, and not all that well at that. Fuck.
To be fair to Katie, everyone (especially Sarah Palin no doubt) hates Sarah Palin’s children.
