I Like ItI Don’t Like It

From the department of awkward timing: Days after video of Sarah Palin's interview in front of slaughtered turkeys became a web sensation, the conservative group Our Country Deserves Better releases a Thanksgiving-themed ad "thanking" Palin.

The opening of the spot features an announcer praising Palin...in front of images of roasted turkeys.

Take a look:

Some text from the email announcing the advertisement:

Friends, too many times we've seen politicians who "sell out" to the media or political pressure and succumb to politically correct, liberal positions, rather than fight for conservative beliefs. But Gov. Sarah Palin has stood steadfast by her conservatism, both in public as a politician, and in her own private life - carrying to full term her baby boy, Trig, rather than opting out for an abortion as some would have had her done. She believed in the value of that life, just as she believes in the greatness of America.


It's time for us to stand behind Sarah Palin now, not just to support her, but to also show other politicians that if they take the risk to champion conservative ideals, that they will find support from we, the American people.

"On behalf of a grateful nation..."? Grateful she didn't win maybe. I'm sure it's no doubt been suggested before but I think we have pod people among us.

I wonder how much that black guy in the ad got paid.

The GOP doesn't get it do they? Their Party is nothing more than a bunch of Wack Jobs and Palin is the ring leader!

Every time the GOP trots out Palin, they dig their party's grave a little deeper.

You can only sell out if you've got something to sell. (Beyond some nice new clothes.)

The English language gets massacred in the foreground and a turkey gets it in the background. Which is worse?

Here is a different language, but I bet it sounds better than Sarah running her mouth. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2WCGWTxm9M&feature=related&fmt=18

In "honor" of Sarah, I am posting a Turkey Shoot Game which makes more
sense than she does.

(There is a "Sherry Meter" listed. Forget about it and leave the game set at 1 for
the most challenge and fun.)
My highest score is 47,799 and beats my uncle's score. (Retired lifer from both
the Navy and Air Force) He sent the game. I'm Air Force so I can't give him too much
grief. Right!

"some would have had her done?" I think that is what they said in 1870. Today, it would be "have had her do." Who are these people? Have they never read a book other that isn't a King James Version?

Even according to the King James Version Sarah has no rhyme to her reason. She and the GOP have no right to even go there. It is embarrassing. The Dems at least are not hypocrites.

It's just garbled: that line doesn't follow form the prolife stuff. It just references the `I'm voting for the babe' demographic. The translation into english is `, as some would have done her'. (No one would want her 'do).

To be fair (and I'm an atheist), the King James bible is written in beautiful English. There's a sharp difference between archaic form and ungrammatical form: indeed, archaic forms of English, like the King James bible, often adhere to the rules of grammar much more strictly than modern English does.

Palin's English owes nothing to the thousands of years of its evolution: it's just BAD.

Sarah Palin, the fact that our country rejected you and Johnny McRage truly gives me hope. Thank you Sarah Palin for being such an inarticulate dimwit.
