Roland Martin on CNN: Sarah Palin is the ‘Kim Kardashian of Politics’
Roland Martin brought his full-blown Palin Derangement Syndrome to Friday's Anderson Cooper 360, labeling the former Alaska governor ” the Kim Kardashian of politics .” Martin continued that Palin is ” making a ton of money. We're trying to figure out why. It's the same as Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton …. She quit her job because she wanted to go out and be a celebrity .” The CNN contributor actually first tried out his questionable label of the Tea Party favorite on his Twitter account. At 5:12 pm on November 9 , Martin posted the following Tweet: ” Palin slammed then-Sen. Obama as a celebrity in 2008 campaign, and she's more of a celebrity because she doesn't hold office .” Mind you, at that time, Palin was Alaska's governor and the Republican vice presidential candidate, but the liberal continued by complaining in a second Tweet that “the media goes ga ga over whatever she says. Palin is often wrong. She's a former governor who quit her job rather than tough it out .” During his third Tweet , Martin added, ” She holds no position; wants no accountability; and wants to sling arrows and then gets angry when called on the carpet 4 her nonsense .” The CNN personality completed his rant by comparing the Republican to the curvy celebrity most infamous for making a pornographic video : ” At the end of the day, Sarah Palin is the Kim Kardashian of Politics. She's a celebrity with no real purpose other than picking up a check .” [ Video below the jump ]
