Sarah Palin just finished Speaking to Investors in Hong Kong

Good for her I say! Surprised? Apparently someone snuck a in a cell and recorded her 90 minute speech just hours ago (no media was allowed in) and she stated that she speaking as “someone from Main Street U.S.A.” She did comment about our government and how bloated it has become since the Democrats took over. Yeah that was predictable and maybe had she remained in office as governor of Alaska she would have a little credibility. She didn’t tone down the home spun, little house on the prairie rhetoric blaming the Federal Reserve for being the watch dog to the financial system saying, “The words ‘fox’ and ‘henhouse’ come to mind.” I can only imagine that she wants the world to know (or at least the US of A) that she is capable of understanding foreign policy. I don’t know if she blasted the ‘liberal media’ but probably wanted to but not knowing the Hong Kong equivalent probably stopped her from saying so the last minute. As usual she didn’t take any questions from the media after her speech probably because she feared being taken of context or saying something that wasn’t written down for her in advance. Only invited guests employees from CLSA (the brokerage house that sponsored the event) were allowed inside to hear the speech. No idea if she was paid or not for speaking but I’m sure they at least picked up the airfare. (photo by Al Grillo from the AP)
