During a briefing in the White House press room Tuesday, administration spokesman Robert Gibbs held up his hand and revealed a shopping list scribbled onto his palm -- "eggs, milk and bread" -- along with a few other notes.

"I wrote down hope and change just in case I forgot that," Gibbs told groaning reporters.

It was a not-so-subtle jab at former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, who was caught consulting notes on her palm during a question-and-answer session at the National Tea Party Convention Saturday night. Photos showed Palin had scrawled "energy," "tax cuts" and "lift American spirits" on her hand.

Our New Approach to Comments

In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers – a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around. Please read our Help and Feedback section for more info.
