The LSM has now decided to use this brief encounter for another one of their spin operations. They claim I – wait for it – “appear to roll my eyes” when the lady tells me she’s a teacher. Yes, it’s come to this: the media is now trying to turn my eyebrow movements into story lines. (Maybe that’s why Botox is all the rage – if you can’t move your eyebrows, your “eye rolling” can’t be misinterpreted!) If they had checked their facts first, they would have known that I come from a family of teachers; my grandparents were teachers, my father was a teacher, my brother is a teacher, my sister works in Special Needs classrooms, my aunt is a school nurse, my mom worked as a school secretary for much of her professional life, we all volunteer in classrooms, etc., etc., etc. Given that family history, how likely is it that I would “roll my eyes” at someone telling me that they too work in that honorable profession? Stay classy, LSM.

This is completely non-news. I can't believe people waste their time looking at "the way Palin looks at a woman who claims to be a teacher" or whatever. The video was boring, and wasted my time.
Isn't there REAL news out there? Maybe millions dying in Africa over minerals used in cell-phone? How about millions dying in civil wars? Or Radical Muslims screaming death to freedom? What about the classic chem-trails & aliens? Or even illegal Mexicans getting our daughters hooked on Meth?
Something? Anything?

Even if it were true, don't you realize that you just cemented my argument even further?
NB. There was no left lean in what they discussed, just the fact the Palin betrayed Alaskans and broke the oath she made when elected. It's not left or right, no unions vs non-union labor. It's a statement of the fact, and all Palin could do was to roll her eyes. How very mature! I shudder to think what could have happened if she was elected and started rolling her eyes when speaking to world dignitaries. That's only second to Bush giving massage to Merkel, on camera. They both make Americans look like a bunch of stupid hicks.

A woman from a woman's band pretending to be a teacher talking to Sarah Palin is what comes off as big news? Somebody need to go to the pet store and get themselves a little friend to occupy their time.

Why didn't ex Gov. Palin just answer the question. Seems fairly simple.

Could be Sarah Palin was confused why a member of a transvestite heavy metal band was posing as a teacher.

Watch how Sarah Palin reacts, when she learns that a dissatisfied citizen with whom she's having an argument is a teacher by profession:
So what?
What's it supposed to mean if she gets a funny look, rolls her eyes or raises her eyebrows?
Let me try to explain:
to me, it looks like she's expressing through her face and body language that her interlocutor is not equipped to form and defend their judgment, based on the interlocutor's occupation as education professional.
