Sarah Palin's Mother-In-Law: "I'm Not Sure What She Brings To The Ticket Other Than She's A Woman And A Conservative"

NY Daily News:

WASILLA, Alaska - Sarah Palin's hometown rallied around her as mayor - now Republicans wonder if the rest of America will warm up to the surprise pick from cold country.

Though her mother-in-law has doubts.

Faye Palin admitted she enjoys hearing Barack Obama speak, and still hasn't decided which way she'll vote.

I think conservatives should accept the writing on the wall. The airports are empty, and no one wants to go to the Convention (with the exception of Ron Paul supporters, who are taking RV's).

All the interesting speakers got really, really busy, and can't come. It's, um, Labor Day weekend, but they are (inexplicably) SWAMPED.

Now, a HUGE natural disaster. How many hints do you need?

[SCG2]

Maybe C-SPAN will cover the Ron Paul convention instead?

[starfire426]

I'm certain among the "intelligentsia" of the Repub Party (ie: Retilian Rove) someone had to notice when scheduling this convention that it would coincide with Labor Day?

[StillIRise]

You know, you're right! Before the Democratic Convention, we heard about the thousands of people trying to find a way to attend, people from all across the nation and even those from abroad. Before the Republican Convention, we hear about the thousands of protestors and some of the most important speakers, including the nominee himself, looking for a way not to be there! And along comes Gustave ... a Republican godsend!

[Falafel]

Has anyone else heard about this?

I think we should put that effort into finding out who k1lled Donald Young, a 'friend' of Obama's who was about to speak about their relationship. He told the Chicago police he thought Obama was going to k1ll him. A few weeks later he was found with his head blown off

I would think that that would be a bigger issue right?

[PodiumOwner]

I do believe you're stupid enough to pin hopes on such a thing.

[pupbayer]

You know that's a comedy site, right?

Having had 4 kids myself, I find it very odd that she would get on a plane for an eight hour flight _after_ she started leaking amniotic fluid.

[starfire426]

Now this is a story that the National Enquirer should ravenously go after 'cause you can believe the MSM are not going to touch this with a ten-foot pole (seeing as how their paychecks are signed by the most conservative base of the Rethug party who own most of the media outlets).

Just remember how the NE broke the news on John Edwards. I hope they're on this and will get to the truth (not to harm Bristol, but to define Sarah for the fraud she is)!!!

[rw97]

She's on the ticket because she's hot and John likes to check out her out

Watch this amusing video clip for proof http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qUVQDmLf7s

[Gollum73]

Ah, more sexism. I love it. The liberals betraying their ideals...

[rw97]

It was McSame who couldn't stop staring at her. He could have put on his sunglasses and made it a little less obvious

[maxdenn]

President Obama. We need you.

[Nochnoi]

Unfortunately we have to wait to vote........ pity that, but those are the rules.......

[ColoradoIndependent]

Faye, who comes from a small town in Alaska, clad in her black sweat suit, and not coached on the national red meat eating media, was most likely unaware of how her naive, plain speak, was about to catapult her into the lime light, and create a titillating headline for the Huff and other news outlets. Too bad for Faye, she has just had a crash course in how the media separates the fat from the meat to go after the juiciest tidbits to bring you down.

[maxdenn]

Right wingers. Lets talk about the issues. Where are you?

[BWonka]

they are having issues......

[SCG2]

Caribou burgers.

[LaFeminazi]

Oh dear the freepers have gone....damm whats worse than batshit crazy?

Even Mother Nature despises the McCains or the McShames. Look at what Gustav is doing. Bush and Cheney didn'y want to go anyway. Palin has nothing to do with the Hillary vote. This is to rally the evangelical base. They'll vote for a sock puppet if it says it'll overturn Roe VS Wade. Bush made that promise for two elections and never meant it just as McCain won't mean it.

[macbabe]

Anyone know about this HAARP project?

[Gould123]

Do you think people will look at this storm as the WIL L of God?

[macbabe]

MY GOD doesn't control people or weather...your's might!

[PodiumOwner]

Anyone know about the annenberg challenge?

[pupbayer]

It's interesting that when Ferraro said O wouldn't be where he is, with his lack of experience, if he weren't black, everyone called her a racist. But when everyone says Palin wouldn't be where she is if she weren't a woman, no one speaks out and calls it sexism. Not too much of a double standard, uh? LOL!!!

[mcfried]

I saw the 2 of them in Mississippi this morning touring the fema set up and all I could think was how selfish - taking precious time and resources away from people who really need them for publicity . Last time he was eating cake with the shrub and didn't give a cr@p. What ? now he only cares as a photo op - because truly caring would have him steering clear and letting people get in and out and do their jobs.

[Gould123]

why can't he stay out of the way and do a charity thing for thosse poor folk?

[kdublya]

Any word on what BHO is doing?

[SCG2]

Trying to control out bursts of laughter while on camera.

[kay]

I just saw his press conference. The plan is to use the list to raise money and/or volunteers.

He did the same thing in Iowa, for the flooding.

[Aleka4]

apparently NOT exploiting natural disaster to pander for votes.

[AntiTerrorDonkey]

Laughing

heh...

[BWonka]

He is putting together a corps of volunteers to go in and help wherever Gustav makes land.

[maxdenn]

Do you think Mr. McCain is aware of what the issues are? Foreclosures, inflation, recession, out of reach health care, crumbling schools and infra-structure, pollution, corruption, and injustice.

[joejoe6357]

are you aware that those problems were caused by over regulation and unions which are a result of Dems in power

[kay]

Are you aware that Palin's husband draws a union paycheck?

Yup.

Brace yourself. You don't know jack about this person. Your talking points may be all but worthless.

[BWonka]

Palin's husband is a Union man - a union OIL man at that - for a foreign company, BP

[ContraEgoiste]

BS. Unions have been w/o power since Ronny. The economy was trashed DUE to lack of regulations and runaway corporate greed with the narrow focus on the bottom line.

[reliant1]

joe - take a break.

re-read the talking points. everyone knows toddie is a union man and works for british petro.

[AntiTerrorDonkey]

joejoe I would

think you would jump at the chance

to make a little more than the minimum wage

heh...

[suzyhein]

no.

[BWonka]

He'll have to have his staff get back to you....

[macbabe]

he has "issues'" alright, BUT he's NOT listening to US!

[OneLiberalLady]

He was a POW, is all he knows.

[DaOne]

Poor Plain Sarah wants to drill in ANWR but McCreepy wants to drill somewhere else.

[Darkdonnie]

A real misogynistic bit of posting!

[suzyhein]

where are you when SweetSydney is calling O old purple lips???????

[Aleka4]

Like you would know misogyny if it bit you in the nose.

Why isn't calling Mc Cain "Mccreepy" "Man hating"?

Don't hurt yourself now. It is because sometimes calling a name is aiming at character and not gender.

BUt I am happy to see that after your mistake in posting repub talking points from 5 months ago, you finally got the memo that you need to accuse everyone of being a misogynist.

Poor dumb donnie. Needs someone to even tell him how to tr0ll properly.
