Sarah Palin's Last Gasp in Tennessee Thursday night. The low lights. (Plus a little gossip from her appearance on the Tonight Show in 2010.)

Okay folks I did my best to dig up some info on last night's pathetic Teabagger support group in Tennessee and there is barely a hint to be found that the thing even happened.

(If a conservative teabags you in the woods, and you don't notice it, should you still feel disgusted?)

The local ABC outlet jotted down a few notes:

An event featuring a former vice presidential candidate like Sarah Palin and other well known politicians wrapped up in Sevierville around 11 p.m. They were speaking for a series called America's Last Stand.

6 News could only take pictures inside where well known politicians like former Senator Rick Santorum and former Governor Sarah Palin spoke to dozens. Other speakers included Fox News personality Judge Jeanie Pirro and Col. Allen West.

The 6 News team asked to interview Palin but were turned down due to "limited time in her schedule."

Yeah right!

Or it could be due to the fact that she looked like this:

Looks like she brought one of those feisty uncooperative wigs with her.

However thankfully there were a few folks tweeting during the event.

One Breitbart News contributor provided these gems:






Hang on I have to take a moment to breathe into a brown paper bag at the memory that she was once the governor of my state.

But wait, there's more.


From what I can gather this was yet another incoherent speech gleaned from various conservative bumper stickers delivered by what looked like a bag lady that somebody lured in off of the street.

Earlier the organizers had bragged that CNN was going to cover the event, but if that was true it kind of looks like partway through they said "Fuck it!" and walked out.

Well since that whole thing was barely newsworthy I thought it appropriate to share something a little more interesting.

Here is an excerpt from a new book by longtime Tonight Show producer Dave Berg, where he discusses the crazy requests made by guests. Including one from 2010:

PALIN'S PLANE

Sarah Palin asked for a private jet to fly her from Alaska to Burbank for her 2010 appearance. The cost? $35,000. She got it.

Who in the hell would spend $35,000 to fly this loser down from Alaska, when they could have bought 1st class round trip tickets for the whole family for around $12,000?

But of course this fits the well established pattern that Palin is known for of trying to get as much money or swag as possible.

Remember this is the woman who charged the state of Alaska a per diem to stay in her own house.
