Top 10 Most Ridiculous Sarah Palin Quotes Ever
Vice Presidential candidate and governor Sarah Palin gained a reputation early on in her political career for grammatical errors, rambling run-on sentences and frequent slip-ups or mistakes while speaking. (During the 2008 campaign, the pressure on Palin to stop screwing up became so intense, she essentially backed out of the media interview circuit entirely.)
This page collects some of Palin's most outrageous, ridiculous, silly and untrue quotes from both the 2008 campaign and her later career as a pundit, commentator and author. For more Palin gaffes, check out The 13 Social Studies Facts Sarah Palin Got Wrong.

Palin on Law
When asked about how as President she would avoid investigations similar to the one compelling her resignation as Governor of Alaska she responded, "I think on a national level your Department of Law there in the White House would look at some of the things that we've been charged with and automatically throw them out."
So why is this a ridiculous quote? For those just as unfamiliar with US government agencies as Palin, there is no Department of Law. A for creativity but F for not knowing what agencies actually exist in our government. - 2Up 13Down 6
Palin on Porn
"Ohh, good, thank you, yes." This quote was in response to a radio show caller who admired Hustler's movie "Nailin Palin" and complimented Palin on the "documentary".
It's obvious that this quote is ridiculous considering she was being pranked by a couple of bored radio show hosts from Montreal and it's doubtful Palin's been in Hustler porn. If you hear the entire clip it's actually cruel how they string her along.
She's doing her best to handle a surprise call from an important dignitary during a busy campaign...but still, she does NOT admit to not knowing about something.
Like in the Couric interview, she responds like my deaf grandma to any question she doesn't know about: "whaaat? Oh yeah yeah, of course!"
Hey! Maybe Palin is just hard of hearing? - 3Up 8Down 4
Palin on Obama's Healthcare
"The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama's 'death panel' so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their 'level of productivity in society,' whether they are worthy of health care. Such a system is downright evil." Aug. 7, 2009.
Death panel, evil and down syndrome baby all in one sentence. There's inflammatory and controversial then there's just ridiculous. Some of the issues involving the health care bill are scary but evil? You can call Bernie Madoff, Hitler, and banker evil but, a health care bill? - 4Up 7Down 4
Palin on Exploitation
"I think a lot of people are capitalizing, perhaps exploiting, what was done via me, my family, my administration..." This was in response to a question regarding Tina Fey's rise in popularity at Palin's expense.
Come on, if politicians can't be fodder for Saturday Night Live then what good are they? Also, who cares? In addition, who cares. Oh yes, and who cares?
Bonus: Tina Fey's impression was well-loved because she was ALREADY famous. - 5Up 8Down 6
Palin on Quitters
"It may be tempting and more comfortable to just keep your head down, plod along, and appease those who demand: 'Sit down and shut up,' but that's the worthless, easy path; that's a quitter's way out."
You have to love the irony of demeaning quitters after she resigns as Governor. What's wrong with the easy path anyway? Her daughter prefers being easy doesn't she? Wow that was uncalled for wasn't it?
