I spent a lot of time in a small Alaskan church. I'm glad I did. It helps me interpret Palin's evangelical dog whistles.

The title: "The Pelosi Bill Was Rammed Through on Saturday, But Sunday's Coming."

Seems harmless to a casual reader, but to the evangelicals? Instant salivation. During sermons...

I tried to resist. Glenn Beck and the Teabaggers (sounds like a bad lounge act) will be making the governors' losses in New Jersey and Virginia a "referendum" on Obama's "socialist policies."

Fine. Let's just go there. Bend over, I'm driving.

When a quitter and a spitter show up...

"Why do you still talk about Sarah Palin? Maybe if you shut up she'd go away."

Wrong.

Sarah Palin isn't going anywhere. Look at her political history. When Sarah ran for mayor of Wasilla, she had to destroy her Republican opponent, John Stein. Once elected, she boasted she was "the...

A letter from former, twice governor Wally Hickel ran in Sunday's Anchorage Daily News. I think it's well worth a read. Hickel is the only other governor to quit (1966-1969). His resignation was to serve as the Secretary of the Interior under President Nixon. He ran again and won the...

After I read Sarah Palin's Facebook page response to the president's speech on health care reform, I had to walk away and count to ten -- in Russian. You may say, why bother? She's not relevant. She's the pin-up girl for crazies.

Last night, a man with a gun attempted...

This just in from Palin's facebook as part of her educating the public on "Death Panels." Why she keeps signing "governor" is beyond me. She quit...or she could just write "gover" since that is equivalent to the amount of time she served the state of Alaska.

Senator Reverend Ruben Diaz...

Many scratched their heads when it was announced Sarah Palin had been invited to speak in Hong Kong at an investment broker's conference. Huh? As mayor, Palin left her hometown of Wasilla $20 million in debt. Her mastery of finance wasn't tested as governor; during her aborted term, the state...

I can imagine awful things. That's why I'm a terrible flier. This week, I sat across from something I couldn't imagine.

I remember the story. On December 1, 2007, a Palmer, Alaska man attacked his father and his father's fiancé with a machete in the middle of the night. Leaving...

Sen. Edward M. Kennedy spoke to the Alaska Democratic Party Convention in Sitka on April 7, 1968. He addressed the convention shortly after the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and weeks before Robert F. Kennedy's death. Senator Ted Kennedy was standing in for his brother, Robert, who had...

In the world of Palin Wack-a-Mole, you need steroids to win. Facebook press releases seem to come on Fridays. Yesterday was no different. This week's word salad had the crazy dressing on the side; a link to Michele Bachmann's health care rant. The crap croutons had quote...

With all the "tea bagging", "birthers", and corporately organized protests, I'm tempted to merely mock them. Their fake outrage is dangerous. It is ironic they use their first amendment speech to disrupt the same rights of other Americans. They have changed the course of events, and...

It has been reported for weeks Sarah Palin would be speaking at the Reagan Library fundraiser on the eighth of August. With just a week to go, the planners should be calling William Shatner to fill in.

This just in from Palin's Facebook:

As repeatedly stated to...

Several days have passed since Sarah Palin's final stop on the "Quitstock" Tour. I feel like I've awoken from a strange, surreal dream. I can't yet tell if it was real or not.

I listened closely to Palin's final speech as governor. Her classic "word salad" style is no less...

Everyone knows how to catch a monkey even if you've never had to. Basic concept. Put a banana in a jar and make sure the mouth of the jar is bigger than a monkey paw, yet smaller than the banana. When the monkey gets hold of that banana, he won't...

This just in from the ADN:

An independent investigator has found evidence that Gov. Sarah Palin may have violated ethics laws by accepting private donations to pay her legal debts.

The report obtained by The Associated Press says Palin is securing unwarranted benefits and receiving improper gifts...

When it comes to taking responsibility for her failures, Sarah Palin is completely unaccountable. Her finger is always pointed at the most convenient scapegoat. Last fall, I said she was George W. Bush with lipstick; nothing is ever her fault. With her resignation, she has set a new bar for...

In her op-ed in the Washington Post this week, Sarah Palin, while still governor, took up the sword for corporate interests; a position directly opposing what is best for Alaska.

The flip-flop to anyone who watched the vice presidential debate was obvious. When Gwen Ifill asked,...

When Senator Bill Wielechowski came on my radio program this week, he dropped a bomb I wasn't ready for; in order for Alaska to avoid a constitutional crisis, "The real solution...is for the governor to say...'I will withhold my resignation until the legislature can meet.'"

Dead air...please explain,...

UPDATE 8:02 PM EST

Sarah Palin's speech this morning rocked Alaskans and people around the country. Palin's predictability is her unpredictability. I'm seeing Alaskan flags on cars, in front of houses, some citizens expressing their own...

The recent faux outrage from Palin's office is the most transparent in almost a year. The photoshopped picture posted by Linda Kellen Biegel has been spun into an arena that only the uninformed could follow. The same picture was photoshopped with a "Baby Dave Letterman" last week without...
