Sarah Palin has disgraced herself yet again, this time by attempting to politicize the Secret Service prostitution scandal that rocked President Obama's recent trip to Colombia. Palin stooped so low -- even for her -- to attach a remark about President Obama eating "dog...

Sarah Palin has apparently fooled another foreigner, this time a young British historian, Timothy Stanley, who can't quite see the American political landscape from his ivory tower at Oxford University.

In an "opinion piece" appearing at CNN.com (actually it borders more on phantasma), Stanley has rather...

Much ado has been made about Sarah Palin going one-on-one Tuesday against former CBS new anchor Katie Couric on "Today" and "Good Morning America," respectively. In this exclusive excerpt from Geoffrey Dunn's bestselling The Lies of Sarah Palin: The Untold Story Behind Her Relentless Quest for...

Rick Santorum is a punk. There, I said it. Nothing more and nothing less. Someone in the mainstream media should have declared it long ago, but, certainly, in the aftermath of Santorum's staged verbal lashing of New York Times reporter Jeff Zeleny last weekend, it's time to call...

Sarah Palin is now busting Mitt Romney's chops whenever she can for not having sufficient "conservative instincts" in his quest for the Republican presidential nomination. She also has ruffled his feathers a bit by raising the specter of a brokered GOP convention in Tampa.

But...

Anyone who has watched Sarah Palin closely in recent months can only marvel at the "magical thinking" she embraces with respect to the potential outcome of the Republican Party primary for president. It's clear that Palin still has her sights set on the White House for 2012.

"[McCain] knows in his gut that he put somebody unqualified on the ballot. He knows that in his gut, and when this race is over that is something he will have to live with ... He put somebody unqualified on that ballot and he put the country at risk; he...

It's like a really bad Disney movie, you know?...It's a really terrifying possibility. The fact that we've gotten this far--and we're that close to this being a reality--is crazy.

-- Matt Damon, Interview with the Associated Press

On election night 2008, Sarah Palin had surrounded...

O Lord, how long? How long, Lord, wilt Thou be angry for ever?

Well over three years ago, as I was conducting deep background research for my book, The Lies of Sarah Palin: The Untold Story Behind her Relentless Quest for...

When Sarah Palin declared two weeks ago that she "wasn't too concerned about a HBO movie based on a false narrative," you knew instantaneously that she was fudging it more than a little bit about Game Change. Of course she cared. Just today she launched a video on...

Poor Meghan McCain. Daddy's little girl knows that the portrait of her and her family coming out in HBO's adaptation of John Heilemann and Mark Halperin's 2008 campaign chronicle Game Change isn't going to be pretty, given what's in the book.

In a posting for The Daily Beast this week,...

In passages leaked from her forthcoming book America by Heart, Sarah Palin -- the erstwhile quitter governor of Alaska, who now, by all indications, fancies herself as President of the United States -- has taken another cheap shot at First Lady Michelle Obama.

In a passage on...

In yet another rambling speech delivered in the heart of California's Silicon Valley yesterday--one in which she not-so-coincidentally never mentioned a single California Republican candidate by name only three weeks before Election Day--Alaska's former half-governor and the GOP's excuse for professional wrestling, Sarah Palin, took a cheap shot at First...

A few days ago, I was speaking on the telephone with Domonic "Nick" Carney, one of those delightful, special characters that one often encounters from Alaska. The son of a salt-of-the-earth family that made a Grapes of Wrath migration to the Alaska Territory in the 1950s, Carney was one of...

In the aftermath of the catastrophic BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, Fox News commentator and 2012 GOP presidential wannabe Sarah Palin talked tough from the sanctity of her Facebook and Twitter accounts about playing "hardball" with BP executives. "[V]erify what BP reports," she proffered in a Facebook...

Two years ago this week, at the biennial convention of the Alaska AFL-CIO in Anchorage, then-Governor Sarah Palin was whisked off by her husband to Ted Stevens International Airport for a flight to Arizona, where Palin met, first with senior advisers to Republican presidential nominee John McCain, and finally McCain...

There is an air of both tragedy and farce as the Arizona Republican primary for the United States Senate comes to a conclusion this Tuesday. Incumbent John McCain -- a venerated war hero and once celebrated presidential candidate -- has been forced into the sludge against an unworthy...

Grammy-Award winning singer-songwriter Sheryl Crow has released a song on her brilliant new album, 100 Miles from Memphis, that takes a critical view of Sarah Palin and the cultural milieu that fuels her presence in American politics.

This is not the first time Crow has addressed the Palin...

One wonders how much gall Sarah Palin can muster in the face of yet another Alaska tragedy.

In the aftermath of the fatal plane crash in rugged western Alaska that took the lives of former U.S. Senator Ted Stevens and four others earlier this week, Palin described Stevens to her...

Echoing the bigoted and right-wing contortions of the National Republican Trust PAC and disgraced Tea Party leader Mark Williams, Sarah Palin has sent the world of Twitter on fire this afternoon, with a series of incendiary Tweets about the proposed Islamic cultural...
