Countdown: Sarah Palin's Drama in Juneau
David Shuster talked to blogger Shannyn Moore about Sarah Palin's latest antics in Alaska where she again seems to be putting her political aspirations before the good of her state. You can read more at Shannyn's blog on the subject here: Palin’s Pitbull Lipstick Wearing Thin. From the post:
“Erratic behavior.”
That is the phrase both sides of the aisle in Juneau are using to describe Governor Palin as of late. For months, the wheels on the Straight Talk Express have been rattling, and now they are coming off. That may sound like a good thing to all the people who have been thrown under it, but for the state of Alaska, it’s just dangerous. Whether we voted for the bus driver or not, we’re passengers, and the cliffs are steep.
A senior member of the leadership staff made two copies of an Anchorage Daily News article last week. One was given to the legislator and the other to a member of Palin’s staff. The article reported Sarah Palin’s agreement to speak at the Vanderburgh County Right to Life dinner in Evansville, Indiana, on April 16th. It also stated her commitment to speak at a breakfast the next day for S.M.I.L.E., a nonprofit organization for people with family members who have Down syndrome.
This was NEWS to the legislator and RELEVANT, considering the governor would be missing in action for most of the last week of the session. The final week is certainly the busiest and most critical as the clock winds down to complete state business.
are you recycling old threads?
Don't make me bring tea to your 21st Floor!!!
"Anyone that makes less than $150K in this country, has no business voting Republican."
take a shot everytime that idiot says law makers...cuz she cant pronounce legislature
... is huge. Bright indeed is the person who can aptly do both, not confuse the two and serve the people who have elected him, or her. It appears Palin considers politics more important than governing, the job the taxpayers are paying their taxes for her to do! Maybe they should rethink how well the governor is doing her job.
Is there a metaphor which has not been stretched to breaking on the rack of this fevered imagination?
She never metaphor she didn't like. As for me, I avoid cliches like the plague.
She's the gift that keeps on giving.

Oh Shannyn..........you are good!
'Talk to the hand'
a Palin implosion.
The 28% would vote for a pit bull as long as he hates people of color, poor and working class.
might have observed Sarah Palin and her female offspring seem to have some difficulty in deciphering calendars. One again her rhythm is a little off.

may be pregnant.

Worse than Dan Quayle?

You don't say! Some of the GOP "Washington insiders" think Sarah Palin might be bad for a ticket? Wow! On the cutting edge of a butter knife, those guys are!
I think that I think better with my left ass-cheek.
No one could have foreseen what a catastrophic category 5 wreck of a woman she is, right Condi?
From the first minute I thought it was a joke. The best part was when she was so bad, but the GOP knew that if anyone actually considered removing her from the ticket, the whole campaign was finished. I mean she tried to ban library books. She speaks in tongues. She tries to fire a trooper because he's the ex of her sister. She was a beauty paegent star. She's got so many kids that people are wondering if they're all hers (has that even ever happened to anyone? I mean I haven't even seen a movie like that.) And all that before we find out she's an abstinence-only sex-ed advocate whose teenage daughter is knocked up by a dick from the hockey team (that one was in a movie - it was kind of a footloose meets youngblood meets fast times at Richmond High.)
They might as well have brought her out at the convention in clown shoes and a rubber nose. Even the press skipped a beat before geting with the program, practically oohing and aahing because she was capable of speech. What were they going for, the nascar/monster truck voters? It's hard to get a good GOTV drive when your main voting constituency sometimes can't find their way out of a Walmart.
It was way worse than Dan Quayle. It was as if Dan Quayle and Britney Spears had a love child. I think she actually set back the cause of women politicians. It was like running a poor man's Geraldine Ferraro, twenty years after Geraldine Ferraro. Who could have seen this tactic not working?
The "brain trust" at the RNC is every rat who wasn't smart enough to jump off the ship after 2006. The best and brightest Reagent's and Liberty University grads. What being home-schooled by fundamentalists will do for a child.
sitting in one of his houses (or maybe a lowly 10 room cottage), amazed that this stupid woman still doesn't understand that she was simply used to divert the MSM's attention from H. Clinton.
Of course I doubt McCain understands that the move backfired by shutting down the Clinton/Obama contest and also forcing Republicans to stop their own sexist rhetoric against Clinton (this they had to use the claim of sexist critique to shield Palin against any critique at all).
Palin's rise to national prominence has been like the day trader's dream of finding a penny stock that balloons to blue chip status -- and all they had to do was buy a ticket and sit back and cash in.
One could draw a parallel between S'Airhead Palin and Peoples Hernandez (Jeffrey Wright's character in the 2000 re-jig of Shaft): Both have ambition to beat the band but lack any of the necessary intellect.
... just being mavericky ... that's what mavericks do.
Mavericks (aka narcisstic sociopaths) like Palin avoid accountability and responsibility at all costs in favor of bolstering their grossly overstated importance to society. Your 15 minutes were up months ago, Sarah. Now get your fascist, irrelevant ass off the stage.

She is a terrible liar and that's why nobody voted for her, except stupid, brainwashed Limp-Dick listeners that are born liars.
C'mon, give Sarah a break. Now that Momma Levi got busted, her Oxy supplies are running dangerously low. Time for a care package from Rush to get her back to right again.
