Script of "Disrespectful" (TV)

(Crowd chants "Obama")

ANNOUNCER [v/o]: He was the world's biggest celebrity, but his star's fading.

So they lashed out at Sarah Palin. Dismissed her as "good-looking."

(Text on screen: ABC News, 8/31/08)

That backfired, so they said she was doing "what she was told."

(Text on screen: Politico, 9/4/08)

Then desperately called Sarah Palin a liar.

How disrespectful. And how Governor Sarah Palin proves them wrong, every day.
