"Dammit they're calling me out on this I guess I need to respond." |
Sarah Palin -- yes, that Sarah Palin -- has some nice things to say about Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders. Sort of.
The former Alaska governor and 2008 GOP vice presidential candidate told "CBS Sunday Morning" that she appreciates the Vermont senator's candor.
"He really does remind me of one of my uncles. And you know, you hear that, that he's like the uncle who maybe lives in your attic and ... comes down once in awhile in order to entertain at a party," Palin said in the interview, which is set to air Sunday at 9 a.m. EST. "So, I get a kick out of him because he, too, is, he's candid, right?"
Yeah Sarah Palin wants to minimize Sanders by comparing him to a crazy old uncle who lives in an attack, not exactly surprising that his well reasoned arguments leave her baffled and confused.
But the big news was that she was then asked about Bristol's newest baby bump.
"That was a bit of a climactic, 'oh doggone, what happened there' issue," Palin said. "The cool thing about putting your faith in God is, he certainly is a God of second chances, and third, and fourth and fifth chances. ... I screw up all the time."
Wow! Only weeks before the blessed event and Palin FINALLY gets around to acknowledging it. And when she does she refers to it as a "screw up," despite the fact that Bristol insists it was planned.
That must make Bristol feel super duper loved and supported.
And exactly what was that part about "third, and fourth, and fifth chances?"
