Scandal! What is the Wall Street Journal Trying To Hide?

(Updated. 2x. 3x.)

The WSJ apparently had posted some excerpts from a transcript of Sarah Palin's big secret speech to Hong Kong, but then they took them down!!!

What gaffes are they trying to cover up??? It would be irresponsible NOT to speculate. And where is Trig Sarah Palin's birth certificate???

Meantime, your eagle-eyed Wonkette Jim Newell spotted the short-lived post and grabbed the best bits, to laugh at.

He also directs us to a story about The Speech That Must Not Be Repeated in the (London) Times, where it is reported that it "sounded like a pitch for the 2012 presidency and was described by several members of the audience as “long, humourless and George W. Bush-like”. And! …

Several audience members reportedly walked out of Ms Palin’s speech 30 minutes before the end, citing “more important things to do” or describing the talk as “too partisan and too much like a speech at the Republican convention”.

[Added] From AFP (via, via) we also understand that …

Two US delegates left early, with one saying "it was awful, we couldn't stand it any longer".

And …

Another [attendee] said he was disappointed that she took only pre-arranged questions.

TELEPROMPTERZ!!!

Also, more hints of a conspiracy so sinister, so vast …

CLSA, an arm of French bank Credit Agricole, said it closed Palin's session to the media after she indicated that she would have to adjust her speech if reporters were present.

Clearly, Sarah Palin was plotting with French bankers in Hong Kong to overthrow the American economy.

[Added2] If you absolutely must see the lost WSJ post, Newell has a way. Or just try clicking this link.

[Added3] Some interesting backstory from YAFB on Rumproast (via).

It is endlessly amusing to watch the left manufacturing dirt on Palin.

Apparently, they haven't yet realized they are laughable.

No, you know what's really funny? Humorless wingnuts thinking a post like the above was anything at all serious.

If people like you had even a drop of self-awareness, you'd be able to see that all I did was pretend I was someone like you talking about President Obama.

On the other hand, if you had even that small amount of a clue, you'd have a million things you cared more about doing than defending Bible's Spice's supposed honor. In fact, assuming you could somehow acquire that steenth of intelligence, you'd be mocking her, too.
