Daily Kos: AUDIO: Palin laughs as host calls cancer surviving colleague a "cancer" and a "b****"

It's on Youtube. I keep telling you, discrediting Palin is like shooting fish in a barrel.

Early on in the conversation before Palin started to crack up, Lester referred to Sen. Green as a jealous woman and a cancer. Palin, who knows full well Lyda Green is a cancer survivor, didn't do what any decent person would do, say, "Bob, that's going too far."

But as the conversation moved on, Lester intensified his attack on Green.

Lester questioned Green's motherhood, asking Palin if the senator cares about her own kids. Palin laughs.

Then Lester clearly sets the stage for what he is about to say by warning his large audience and Palin. He says, "Governor you can't say this but I will, Lyda Green is a cancer and a b----." Palin laughs for the second time.

That bit of conversation was a real piece of work, as is Palin herself.

19. Lyda Green is hitler in a dress but this is wrong. Palin is something

isn't she?

2. You would think McCain's camp would Google

Seems too easy. Something's not adding up here.

3. McCain doesn't know how to google.

7. No...

They did an Archie search instead:

8. I'm calling Her the "B" word for being bitchy!!

How could Ms. Palin laugh at another woman's misfortune as to have survived the horrors of cancer??

Does she call McCain "OLD CANCER FACE" ???

The stories coming out about Palin are getting more bizarre all the time. I would NOT want her representing MY country and meeting other heads of state where she would create DISCORD and BAD FEELINGS about the USA because she acts sooooooooooooo immature!

She was immature on that call. She is NOT Vice President material.

20. our political people are so tight knit they come to love or hate

each other more fully than other places. Juneau, our capital, is the largest area wise of any in America and you have to boat or fly in. The legislature is stranded there for the duration and they get to know each other, for bad or good, very well. this sort of snickering at your awful sister-in-law's misfortune is common. so are great and good friendships. Lyda Green is a really awful person but this is sad to me. Not surprising but sad.

4. No, not the mother load yet; those are nervous little schadenfreude bubbles escaping...

And so we fill broadband with the bent, half flapping wing
of a butterfly in central park as the cause celeb for a war
we thought we'd be smart enough to avoid all along........

5. Good point.

We definitely need to keep attacking McCain, on his judgment, ask him what he was thinking when he picked her.

Oh, and that Martha Stewart pic is awesome! :rofl:

[maseman]

6. Wow! Just WOW!

Is this compassionate conservatism?

This needs to be played on the air by KO and Rachel Madow. She is amazingly stupid for just giggling. If she would have called these radio guys an ass for saying this and hung up there would be no problem. But she laughed and stuck around to soak it up.

Imagine if BO or Joe Biden did this? My GAWD Hannity and Limbaugh would have a field day.

9. At first, I was a bit scared of Palin.

I thought that she was atleast really smart for John McCain to have picked her just like that. But it is becoming more and more apparent, that she is just a right-wing conservative idiot with an interesting story, and that's IT. I guess that's how John McCain himself came to be a Senator back in the olden days. He ran on his interesting and remarkable story, but that's IT.

If Obama/Biden doesn't wipe the floor with these two, America is fucked in the head.

[Quixote1818]

This must be brought out! It's too big!

21. If only Olberman could get his hands on this...!

[backscatter712]

22. Olbermann reads Kos.

He sends announcements of his special comments there, and does participate in discussions there from time to time.

23. Kick for the evening crowd.

I want to see that right-wing barbie doll completely humiliated.
