Bill Kristol and Scheunemann are two of the biggest hypocrits/thugs in the republican party. the less spoken of them the better off we are. God, I hope they go into oblivion and also take with them all their ilks. Planet earth would be better served sans them.

EVERYONE knew, GOP and Dems alike, that Palin was an incompetent and dangerous choice for VP of the United States. If there was a single decision that was McCain's undoing it was his shocking choice for a running mate. What a travesty that he thought he could leave our country in the hands of this unskilled and unprepared woman. Todd S. Purdam's Vanity Fair article "It Came From Wasilla" is well researched and he is a highly regarded journalist.

Dick Cavett wrote a hilarious article in the New York Times, 11-'08, titled "The Wild Wordsmith of Wasilla" where he quotes incomprehensible Palin-speak. Cavett quoted this sample of Palin's political chat: "My concern has been the atrocities there in Darfur and the relevance to me with that issue as we spoke about Africa and some of the countries there that were kind of the people succumbing to the dictators and the corruption of some collapsed governments on the continent, the relevance was Alaska’s investment in Darfur with some of our permanent fund dollars."

Huh?

Once Again......

We present to America why we are thankful this fool is in Alaska and not Washington DC

Three more ethics complaints against Palin on the way
AlaskaReport has learned that at least 3 more ethics complaints will be filed against Sarah Palin in the near future. Of course her cronies at the Personnel Board will probably sweep them under the rug - but at least the crimes will have a light shined upon them before they do... Also - A long simmering embezzlement/IRS scandal is still being looked at by the feds. Stay tuned...

Could somebody here help me out?

Please go to www.andrewsullivan.com and go down the page to a blog entry titled "Palin and the Flag". At the bottom of the entry is a "continue to" option and there you'll see a picture of Sarah Palin doing a cheesecake shot wrapped up in the American flag like it's a shawl. Literally. It might as well be a beach towel.

Does anybody know what that picture is from? The source?

Fairly revolted after the shot from Runner's World with her doing a t&a shot in shorts next to the flag draped over a chair like it's an accessor to coordinate with her wardrobe. But when I saw this photo of her, literally, adorning herself with the flag I went bullistic. What is this picture from?

Never mind. I feel stupid. I went back and it says the Palin Calendar right on top. I was struck temporarily blind by the photo.

I can imagine Palin, a few inbreeders and other fundamentalists, as well as militia-types, having a huge family feud on the Jerry Springer Show. It is easy to visualize Palin running across to stage and launching an attack leap at Michelle Malkin, resulting in both being restrained. Pleasant dreams. Rev. Bookburn - Radio Volta

that is Palin's great contribution: we like to say, "gosh darn it you betcha" with the kids around the house. Kind of like, "holy moly guacamole", but with an Alaska twist.

I wonder how Grover Norquist feels about having a Republican party so small you can drown it in a bathtub?

Watching the GOP meltdown and turn on itself has been some of the best political theatre I have ever seen

Next they will be eating their young.

Hard to say if this should be a pox on John McCain for opening Pandora's box, or offer him many thanks for the theater of the absurd that is Palin.

She has absolutely no clue that the interWEB exists to check out every "fact" that leaves her ignorant pie hole.

On a side note: I just *love it* that I subscribe to Vanity Fair...and have not received this month's issue yet. But the whole world can get it for free online right now. And the publishing industry is "surprised" that print is on its way out? Sorry Conde Nast, but there will be no renewal for me. The good news is that I will no longer have be subjected to the stench from all of those nasty perfume ads.

Where's Palin's outraged reaction to Mr. Family Values, Gov. Sanford?

I'm sure Jenny Sanford would have a disagreement with that breezy view.

He was one of Palin's big "anti stimulus" buddies, along with Jindal. Makes them kinda like kissin' cousins!

Of all the phrases that could characterize her, I'd vote for "loose cannon who should be consigned to the tabloids." Now let's see if the governor, or any member of her family for that matter, could spell that phrase and I'll apologize for my opinion.

Palin is LOUDLY SILENT about one of her compatriots,s ongoing confessions about his shenanigans with both Ms Argentina and "others". If this was Obama, she would have been front and centre. She spoke out very quickly during the controversial issue regarding the beauty paegant fiasco but not a peep about Sanford;s "Apalachian hikes". What give Governor, after all it is another governor like you who is in the hot seat.
