Last Saturday Sarah Palin gave her much-anticipated speech to the Tea Party Convention which was covered extensively by every major news network.  It turns out the speech got so much attention that some cameras caught Palin consulting some crib notes on her hand.  While criticizing President Obama as the "teleprompter-in-chief" Palin was simultaneously consulting her own "telepalmter" when asked question by a friendly Tea Party interviewer.

Today the news media was all over the "telepalmter" story.  Both Fox News and MSNBC poked fun at Palin's palm notes.  In the clip below MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell displays her own crib notes while doing some interviews.  Meanwhile Steve Doocy of Fox News joked that the President should have seen the "writing on the hand" when he decided to hold terror trials in New York City.  Later Fox News would come to the defense of Palin but Doocy's jab was still noteworthy.
