Was it on AOL or Yahoo!’s homepage where a story about former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin’s dinner invitation to her ex-son-in-law-to-be led for (what seemed) the better part of the day?
Perhaps, I should have saved the link, but, well, the story didn’t much interest me. (It was the media’s obsession with the father of the Republican’s grandchild whichs fascinates.) Seems I wasn’t the only disinterested person to take notice in this story. In his blog, Hugh MacIntyre offers:
Sarah Palin is a former public official. Any legitimacy the press may have in digging into a politicians family (which I think extends only as far as looking for corruption) surely ends when that politician no longer holds office.
That is to say, why should anyone give a flying donkey where Levi Johnston decides to eat turkey?
Why is the media so obsessed with the doings the ex-son-in-law-to-be of an ex-Governor? Well, because of his former relation. They just can’t let go of their obsession with Sarah Palin. They have this “need” to reduce her to the level of tabloid trash, even if the behavior they recount is not her own. Even as they demean this good woman and accomplished politician, writers, bloggers and editors in the MSM regular run with stories highlighting her latest comment on politics and policy.
Mark Steyn notes that AP relied on the services of writers in addition to Calvin Woodward (who got the byline) to “‘fact-check’ . . . Palin’s new book, and in return [those] 11 fact-checkers triumphantly unearthed six errors.” They are obsessed.
But, their obsession, as John Podhoretz notes is a sign of her staying power:
And a person who can make news just by opening her mouth is a person to be reckoned with, a person who is not going away, a person who is going to play a role in American politics for a long time.
Or maybe he’s reading too much into . Maybe her ability to make news is more a function of the neuroses of those who so hate her, evidence perhaps of their own need to demonize their political adversaries or to just plain attack someone whose appeal they don’t undestand.
Liberals once again illustrate that they occupy and control the very epicenter of hate in America.
Palin, Palin, Palin!
That’s all we hear about, read about.
You media bloodsuckers keep her name on the tip of people’s tongues…with healthcare, the war in Afghanistan,with unemployment, with all that is going on.
Haven’t you gotten enough out of this mediocre would be candidate for the presidency?
She is the ex-governor of a state with a population just over the number of tenants in a Brooklyn high rise.
Enough already.
Or maybe, just maybe, her ability to make news is a function of her own obsessive attempts to thrust herself into the limelight – an effort whose rewards have proven to be far more enticing to her than the drudgery of actually completing her term in office.
“Why is the media so obsessed with the doings the ex-son-in-law-to-be of an ex-Governor?”
Because its profitable
Imagine if the first homosexual VP candidate came out and said, “I’m against gay marriage–I prefer to call them covenants because I think same-sex relationships have a different dynamic than homosexual relationships. I also think that many in the gay community are using the marriage issue to push a sexual liberationist agenda. I plan to work hard, as VP, to get rid of the drugs, STDs, and exploitation of youth that run rampant in the gay ghetto and Pride parades. I, and my partner, Jason Statham, work hard at our lifelong, sexually exclusive, publicly accountable relationship, and we hope that becomes the norm for same-sex couples. We both will appear at ‘abstinence-only’ rallies for young homosexuals to encourage them to wait for their covenant-partner to have sex.” Do you think that the first homosexual VP, if he spoke like this, would get any backlash from the press?
#2: Thank you, Tano Talking Points, for your daily demonstration of how to walk through a propeller at full throttle without a scratch. Embarrassingly pitiful and messy as always.
Not that anyone, including the most slack-jawed and servile Obama handmaidens, need this clarification, but Palin resigned from the office of Governor Alaska around the time that another sleazy Obama operative filed frivolous ethics complaint No. 19 against her and the bill for defending herself against frivolous ethics complaints Nos. 1-18 exceeded half a million dollars. In contrast, Obama spent what?…143 days as a US Senator until he decided to leave that “drudgery” behind him for a full-time career as a cover model for Time, Newsweek, and Esquire magazines.
tano, if you beloved media simply ignore her, she wouldn’t be in the lime light.
You make it seem as though, all on her own she is making this info appear all over the place.
She posts on facebook, the media repeats everything she writes there.
She writes a book, the media, Oprah included could simply have ignored it’s existence, like they do the teaparties.
She’s still a public figure. All she does is write Facebook notes about death panels. She still gives political speeches and stuff, so she’s a political figure!
Also, the conservatives have Palin Obsession Syndrome. Everytime Palin does something, it’s Oh, No, Palin is being attacked! She’s a good woman!
Palin has staying power because Republicans are obsessed with victim sydrome and Democrats are obsessed with defeating the Republicans in 012. Republicans are acting like battered women.
#3: “Because its profitable”
Yeah, gillie. The “numbers” of the NYT, CNN, MSNBC, et al are through the roof. I’m sure that the AP’s investors are swimming in cash after its editors made the savvy decision to assign 11 reporters to finding 6 alleged “errors” in Palin’s book. Even the dumb sluts over at Playgirl knew better than to try to make money off the Left’s psychotic obsession with Sarah Palin without including photographs of Levi Johnston’s cock.
The best thing about all of this is that after a year and a half of liberal journalists driving their news organizations into the ground because of their own Palin Derangement Syndrome, they’ll have to watch Palin and her publisher walk away with all of the real profits to be made on this story when her book comes out. I’m personally not all that interested in reading the book, but I assure you, I am walking down to my local Borders the day it comes out and paying full retail for a copy of it as my own petty little “fu*k you” to the liberal media. That glossy hardcover of “Going Rogue” is going to be on a stand front-and-center on my coffee table over the holidays just to drive my liberal friends insane.
Sean she is a polarizing figure.
The millions who know she is a lying loony, click those links. The millions who think she is the messiah click those links.
She is the front runner for the GOP prez nomination.
She dishes on her former campaign staffers
She blames everyone else for her failures.
Its a perfect story because the reporters don’t need to do anything. – She does it for them.
So of course the media is going to report and of course she brings eyeballs to that fading institution of the MSM. Otherwise they wouldn’t give her the time of day.
Also, the conservatives have Palin Obsession Syndrome. Everytime Palin does something, it’s Oh, No, Palin is being attacked! She’s a good woman!
Well, she is being attacked. Newsweek put her on the cover and called her “bad news” for “everybody.” Isn’t that an attack? Larry O’Donnell went into a hissy-fit denouncing her as an idiot on MSDNC. Isn’t that an attack? Andrew Sullivan is still claiming she isn’t Trig’s mother. Isn’t that an attack, or at least, deliberately promoting a falsehood as a means of demeaning a person he dislikes obsessively?
And she is a good woman. So, what exactly is the issue, here?
Harper Collins is pushing their product
Well, she is being attacked.
Yeah, and I’m going to attack her now, too: She’s a quitter.
Also, Barack Obama is a socialist. Should I write a blog post defending B-Rock from my attack?
—
And, as to whether she’s a good woman, I don’t know, because I’ve never met her. I don’t know if B-Rock is a good person either.
I don’t care. I only care about how their political decisions impact my country.
This is so hilarious.
The vice-presidential candidate of one of the major parties up and quits her elected office, writes a tell-all book trashing the campaign that made her who she is on the national stage, and starts a book tour of most of the major primary states, and anyone needs to search for explanations for why she is in the news?
You can be certain that if the MSM were ignoring her, we would hear all the heated conspiracy rantings about how the librul media is suppressing news of the conservatives new superstar.
#10
Now if you replaced “she” with “Obama”, you’d have a true comment.
Actually, this continuing obsession with attacking Sarah will probably increase her book sales (although apparently Tano has already read it, obviously a free pre-copy).
After all the lies the Left told about her–heck, continue to tell about her–she deserves whatever cash she gets from the book and from her speaking fees (I assume she charges; who doesn’t).
The Left is now screaming that “She’s a quitter!!!!!!” Well, at least she had something to “quit” from. She is and has been a doer all of her political life (unlike Obama and his “political” life, during which he happily took credit for anything anyone else did and voted “Present” to avoid leaving a readable trail). And she handled all of the adversity with class.
Have you ever heard anyone say, “Well, she’s no Barack Obama”? I haven’t. Could that be because it would be construed by most as a compliment?
#14: FYI, when Tano starts a comment with “This is so hilarious,” it means he’s about to give us a partial list of the things that cause him to: yank tablecloths off tables set with glasses, dishes and other various breakables; make guttural noises as he sweeps the entire contents of his desk to the floor with both arms; spin around the room bumping into walls while whimpering and pulling out clumps of hair; sit catatonic in a corner turning a lamp on and off for a day and a half; and stick his head out the window in the middle of the night, shrieking to winds, “WHY?! WHY?! WHY?!” Mind you, this is only a PARTIAL list.
re: #15
Palin’s out there blaming McCain, out there blaming Couric for her own inability to answer questions (She famously connected bailouts with healthcare.). Palin should note that one of the jobs of a politician is image control.
Re: Tano, #14
It doesn’t matter that the media is covering her (too much in fact … and in some ways pushing her fantasy of a presidential campaign, pushing her as a top candidate). What matters is that they don’t cover her fairly, in most cases, for example, fact checking a freaking book. One of the “facts” they “checked” was the fact that she rarely stayed at fancy hotels. The AP responded that it was a lie because she rarely stayed at fancy hotels but did once.
Re: #16
Palin is a quitter. (You apparently don’t think so, #16.) She quit her governorship halfway thru it. What would you call that besides quitting?
(Note: In order to not quit, you have to finish what you are doing, ie finish your term out.)
Obama has much more experience than her. Twice as much, even.
Look at how much experience they have:
Palin: 2 years as governor
Obama: 4 years as Senator
You will recall from math class that 4 is twice as much as 2.
If you look at what they did prior to their respective offices, Palin was governor for 2 terms of a small town, and Obama was a state Senate representative from Chicago, so they were both representing relatively small constituencies.
Re: #6, leah
You make it seem as if Palin is a victim for having the MSM cover her rants about death panels. She posts her Facebook rants because she wants coverage so that she can run for president and make millions as an author. She released a book. She went on a book tour. She gives speeches. ie she wants coverage, and she can shut the hell up if she doesn’t want coverage, and that’d really benefit the Republican Party.
I love the Podhoretz quote!
Mitchell: Is it true that you don’t like Palin? (joke)
“Have you ever heard anyone say, “Well, she’s no Barack Obama”? I haven’t. Could that be because it would be construed by most as a compliment?”
By most what?
Last I checked, Gallup has 54% of Americans approving of Obama’s performance (more than actually voted for him), while CNN poll shows 71% of Americans feel Palin is not qualified to be president.
I guess the answer to your question is …no.
The MSM would support Levi Johnston for President before the ex governor of Alaska. That’s all you need to know.
For the left, they have no credibility, they got elected a community organizer who thought we had 57 states, got all wee weeed up about Afghanistan and gives shout outs to medal of honor winners, who aren’t.
The left prefers boobs.
But she doesn’t make the news, she makes the daily liberal “Two Minutes Hate”.
I mean you guys are STILL going on about how she supposedly believes Jesus rode dinosaurs and how her baby is really her daughters baby.
But then you are just proving that liberalism is indeed a mental disease.
#23: “Last I checked, Gallup has 54% of Americans approving of Obama’s performance (more than actually voted for him), while CNN poll shows 71% of Americans feel Palin is not qualified to be president.”
Just to put Talking Points Tano’s poll citations in perspective, in a Fordham University analysis of the 2008 pre-election accuracy of 23 polling organizations, Gallup placed 17th. And to put that in perspective, THE DAILY KOS CAME IN 7TH.
http://www.fordham.edu/images/academics/graduate_schools/gsas/elections_and_campaign_/poll%20accuracy%20in%20the%202008%20presidential%20election.pdf
Actually, Mitchell, I believe Sarah was MAYOR of a small town, then GOVERNOR of a huge state, a state with unique assets and unique problems and where her job approval rating was a bit higher than Obama’s is.
I suppose it is unfair to compare her experience with Obama’s. After all, a mayor or a governor is NEVER allowed to vote “Present.” I’m sure if she could have, she would have.
Anyway, I suppose that means you HAVE heard people say, “Boy, she’s no Barack Obama,” huh?
‘Gallup placed 17th”
And Pew came in first, and they have Obama at 51%., 36% disapproval.
Split the undecideds, and thats 58-42.
Interesting, if I recall, thats the percentage that Reagan got in his near-landslide re-elect.
Thats where we stand today.
Sarah? Hmmmmm
I’ll ask you one favor, Sean. PLease, please, please, lets put this to a test. Please nominate Sarah!!!
Rasmussen the most consistently accurate independent pollster in America has Obama at 50% approve 49% disapprove.
Wait til the terrorosts are shipped to NYC. And NYC becomes a prime target again.
I must say though that I thought if Obama was going to bring terror suspects to America he should take them to dark blue cities in dark blue states. And he is. Trials in NYC. Housed in Illinois. So if there are jail breaks it is the blue parts of America who’s mothers and daughters are more at risk. Even better would be to house the terrorists next to the White House. Fair?
‘I mean you guys are STILL going on about how she supposedly believes Jesus rode dinosaurs and how her baby is really her daughters baby.”
Haven’t heard anyone talk about Trig in months, and even then it was only Andrew.
As for Jesus and the dinosaurs, she does believe that – or something equivalent. Its in her book.
I saw the new picture of our young naive President bowwing down to the Japanese guy. That will get hime some more polling points here. hehe
“The bow as he performed did not just display weakness in Red State terms, but evoked weakness in Japanese terms….The last thing the Japanese want or need is a weak looking American president and, again, in all ways, he unintentionally played that part.
http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2009/11/on-president-obamas-bow-to-the-japanese-emperor-an-academic-friend-writes-that-both-the-left-and-the-right-are-wrong.html
Sorry Gene, but Rasmussen is a republican shop, not independent. And it is not consistently accurate – it is consistently an outlier. Go look at RealClearPolitics (a Republican site as well), where they do a running average of all approval polls. Note the disparity between Rasmussen and every other poll – a consistent disparity – it shows up 95% of the time, and is of a magnitude that cannot be simply sampling error.
Rasmussen uses automated telephone polling (introducing all manner of biases that just so happen to favor the right) and purposely fudges its numbers (their “likely voter” screen) to further bias to the right.
Not a reputable firm.
Didn’t someone prove one of the Obama girls wasn’t his?
Tano did any of your pollsters call the rout of Dems in NJ and VA.
If an election were held today Obama would get his skinny rump whipped badly. 11% unemployment 20% underemployment. Thanks BHO.
Like Obama , tano lies to suit his needs.
Rasmussen was the most accurate 2008 Presidential pollster in America.
But that isn’;t good enough for liberal Dems who try to lie and BS their way thru life. Now tano labels Rasmussen “not reputable”. So what other lies do these leftists parrot? No new taxes for 95% of people….hehe
http://genuinegopmom.blogspot.com/2009/03/congratulations-rasmussen-reports-for.html
As for Jesus and the dinosaurs, she does believe that – or something equivalent. Its in her book.
Oh really, Talking Points Tano? That’s amazing, because you are making definitive statements about what’s in a book that hasn’t been released yet.
So why not cite your actual source for that statement, bigot? Can’t you answer that question, Talking Points Tano? Or do you want to admit that you just made it up to smear Sarah Palin, just as your Barack Obama was publishing faked pictures of Palin last week to attack her?
Why are liberals like Talking Points Tano so unable to tell the basic truth?
Re: #31
Rassmussen is the most conservative mainstream polling org. Even they have him basically at 50% approval. He’s basically at 50%, much more than Palin would be at. 70% think she’s unqualified.
BZZZT! Wrong answer!
What Rasmussen is, is the most accurate of all pollsters for several years running according to an independent university study.
Gallup is #17!
Re: #29, Polly
I agreed that Palin was mayor of a small town. That’s not much experience.
Next, you have Obama being Senator for 4 years, and Palin being governor for 2 years, and 2 years isn’t much time as governor (in fact it’s only half a term), and 4 years is in fact twice 2 years, so Obama has twice Palin’s experience.
Now I’m not saying Obama is experienced; matching him up against Palin for experience is setting a low standard. But, he does have more years of experience than Palin.
(One note about that: Whenever people talk about Palin’s experience, they always match her up against Obama. Really? If you want to talk about someone having experience, why would you use Obama as your standard?)
AE, I chuckle whenever you use that expression. The way long-timers here may remember that I introduced it at GayPatriot; in 2006-7 it was my trademark.
Re: Whether Palin thinks people were running with the dinasaurs
That’s a pretty stupid thing to believe. I don’t know if she believes it, but I did see her doing an exorcism or something, in one of the videos around last year.
Regardless, those views have nothing to do with politics, so it’s basically irrelevant whether or not she believes it.
Re: Rassmussen being accurate
I see that they were labeled as most accurate for the final presidential results. Everyone tries to be most accurate for that because respect is on the line, but for daily tracking results and polls on specific issues, there’s not so much prestige on the line.
LOL! ILC now taking credit for famous gameshow references that permeate society!
You truly are the most retarded asshat on the internet!
Mitchell, no offense but you are defending a poorly chosen position, and it’s hard to imagine why you would bother.
First, Palin’s 2 years of executive experience was/is infinitely more than Obama’s 0 years of (pre-Presidential) executive experience. Since, as math teaches us, any number divided by zero is infinity. Unqualified to be President, she may well be. So was Obama. And look who’s President.
But more important, what is your purpose here? You don’t like Palin, fine. There is no election or campaign right now. When there is again – and, IF Palin is a candidate – you can give us the reasons to support the candidate you want.
There is this, which you said earlier:
Alrighty then – Which of Palin’s political decisions are hurting you? Personally, I think she’s done a wonderful job of opposing Obamacare. And that Obama needs all the opposition he can get.
Not at all, AE. Only credit for introducing the expression at GayPatriot and being a heavy user of it.
Honestly and accuracy really aren’t your strong suits, are they AE? Or is it a reading comprehension issue?
And yet everyone isn’t — Rasmussen is.
(BTW, I have to confess it was a bit of a trap, AE. Again, I said a totally truthful and accurate thing. But I knew that you would reacting as you did, i.e. with a demonstration of your habitual name-calling and lack of grace.)
LOL! I didn’t say I was taking credit for it! I’m taking credit for saying it HERE!!!!
Dude, you are PATHETIC! you make it abundantly clear you have no life outside this site on a daily basis.
Youre a filthy sleazy liar ILC, thats not name calling any more than calling the Soviet Union an evil empire is name calling.
It is truth. Which our little resident redefiner knows nothing of.
Quote please!
What on Earth is that referring to, AE? I never suggested you were taking credit for it. I said this and only this:
Seriously, AE – is it a reading comprehension issue, with you? Is that your basic problem?
More AE name-calling! LOL 🙂 What maturity and self-control you do possess.
Oh, and this (the earlier name-calling):
No, no name-calling to see there and keep up the great comments, AE! ROFL 🙂
ILC.
Every normal person in the world eventually encounters a loser with no life outside the internet who has nothing better to do with his time than trying to win arguments by lying, quoting “reality” as a source and redefining what common English words and phrases mean.
Most of us normal people dont have the time or energy to deal with liars like you.
Indeed, THIS PICTURE was created to describe wasting time on liars like you. (I suppose you will take credit for that well known image as well)
Calling you the pathetic loser and compulsive liar that you are is the only appropriate response there is.
Its what you have proven yourself to be, over and over again.
AE, what a fine contribution you do make to this blog.
You know what? We need more of your name-calling, ugly spirit. It adds to discussions so much, and helps the world. Please… MOOOOrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeee! LOL 🙂
Calling you out on your lies does help a great deal. We agree on something!
Not enough nastiness in that one. Again – MOOOOrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeee! LOL 🙂
Oh and AE: It needs more of your trademark dishonesty. (or is it just a lack of reading comprehension?)
Get psychiatric help ILC. And get a life, really.
You are humiliating yourself.
Tano, many people attempt to thrust themselves into the limelight, but that doesn’t guarantee it shines upon them.
Your initial response suggests Palin has this magical power to make people write about her just by standing up and saying something. Or even by saying nothing, but having her ex-son-in-law-to-be flaunt himself in front of the cameras.
So, please address the issue of your own denial about your obsession with people (& things) you hate including with Bush, Palin and this blog. And instead of ceaselessly attacking them and us, examine your own prejudices and animi (animuses?) and then actually respond to the questions we’ve asked you,
Thanks,
Re: #47, ILC
Senator is a powerful position dealing with big issues, and it is real experience. I can understand if you think that executive experience is more important, but you do have to put a level of value to Senator so that you can put the two positions up at equivalencies (ie 1 year of govnor=3 years as Senator, or something), and so you don’t end up like some guy on Pajamas media who said that Palin’s 2 years as governor was more experience than Lieberman’s 20 years as Senator.
At any rate, neither Palin nor Obama has much experience.
—
As to why I’m criticizing her, first, anyone can and should comment on what is happening in politics, regardless of whether said politico has a viable chance of getting elected (ie I can joke about Dennis Kucinich seeing aliens), but Palin deserves even more scrutiny based on her level of support. Look at the sales of her books and the response of her fans (ie here) when she is criticized just for the examples.
As to how she is hurting me, first, she seems like she might be a GOP presidential candidate, and if she runs and wins the nomination, that would hurt greatly, because she would probably lose the election. Even if she doesn’t run, she does create image problems for the GOP, as she (rightfully) has a bad image. (ie she complained that “In God We Trust” was being taken off coins recently, a thoroughly debunked internet conspiracy theory: http://www.politicsdaily.com/2009/11/11/fox-news-fact-checks-sarah-palin-on-coin-conspiracy/)
She has done some good work on ObamaCare. I would criticize her on that, though, just because she used bad ends, even if the means were good. Like with her “death panels” comment, what she was criticizing was a VOLUNTARY consulation program wherein people who agree to be consuled will then have a VOLUNTARY choice over their fate. So I’m happy that the comment seems to have slowed down ObamaCare, but I’ll criticize it anyway, because it was wrong.
Ugh – Still not enough. Come on, AE. Think bigger. Think bolder. Give a show of screeching AE name-calling and lies for the history book! Can’t you accuse me of being an embezzler or Brazilian go-go dancer, or something? Come on, dude, I know you can.
(sorry, typo, “for the history book-s-!)
Palin does have a magical power to make people write about her. It’s called going on national TV to promote her book.
The only one with trademark dishonesty is YOU ILC
Unlike you, I actually have statues, legislatures, biology, and every dictionary on the internet backing me up. ALL of which I quoted and linked to.
You have yet to provide a source for ANYTHING — because you are a liar.
Seriously, you have gone WAY past dishonest and are now deeply into looking mentally imbalanced.
And your deranged behavior went way past rude long before I ever started calling you names.
PLEASE get psychiatric help, and please get a life outside this site. You are literally falling to pieces because someone proved you wrong. Thats pathetic.
Backing you up on what? On your gross misinterpretation of my comment at #46? LOL 🙂
I’ve written comments with so many links in them, at times, that the GP spamfilter rejected them for that reason alone.
Truly you live in your own world, AE. You are a category and a law unto yourself. And your contribution to this blog is, again… um… extraordinary.
That was better – because of the capital-letter screeching. But it still needs more, AE. Come on. Give us more. Accuse me of being a hit-and-run driver or a cha-cha shoe enthusiast, or something. I know you can do it.
(This is kinda fun. What’s motivating me at this point is curiosity to see how far and how long AE’s flip-out can go on.)
(Oh! And AE has “STATUES” backing him up! – his word, my caps for emphasis 🙂 )
Not in any of our debates. So while you may have at other times, this is yet ANOTHER example of your pathological dishonesty
It wasn’t misinterpretation, you blithering idiot, I was MOCKING your ASININE answer.
I suppose you invented the internet too! ILC a little Bill Clinton, a little Al Gore, a little Andrew Sullivan all wrapped up in one lifeless pathetic lying loser
No whats motivating you is your pathological need to have the last word.
Anyone can look up any debate youve ever had, You ALWAYS have to have the last word because the internet is ALL YOU HAVE.
Pa-the-tic
AE, what external citation could I possibly provide in the present “debate”? (Which really is just you flipping out. And me urging you on.)
That doesn’t make sense. If you concede that I may well provide many links in my comments (that you don’t know about), how is it dishonest that I said there are times when I provide many links in my comments?
That kind of insanity reminds me of something. Something relevant to this thread. Something topical. What could it be?
Oh, yeah. It reminds me of when the AP “fact-checked” Palin’s book. As Mitchell Blatt put it:
Similar logical structure here. I claim (and truthfully) that “I’ve written comments with so many links in them, at times, that the GP spamfilter rejected them for that reason alone.” AE then concedes that indeed, I “may have”. That means my claim was… um… uh… “pathologically dishonest?” LOL 🙂
AE, turn to those “statues” backing you up. See what their voices tell you to do and say about me, next.
Oh, and – you know what I want. Think bigger, bolder, more bizarre. Plus more capital letters, general name-calling and nastiness. Pretty please 🙂
I don’t hold her resignation against her. I’d quit my job, too, if I thought my boss was being a douche. She was facing $500,000 in legal bills and rising for the sake of a job that paid, what? $50K per year? Quitting was entirely rational, under the circumstances.
V – agreed. That’s how I feel. Palin wanted to concentrate on general national policy, especially energy independence and getting small-government conservatives elected. Good for her.
Kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty 😉 LOL!
As I recall Obama quit working as a Senator and began running for President. Missing tons of votes.
Steven, I’m right there with ya. It’s a laugh-riot in here tonight 🙂
Tano, calling TANO …… I flipped over here to remind you to answer my challenge from “Does Obama Think the World Began Anew on his Inauguration Day?” which appears directly below. You aren’t slinking away are you?
C’mon, Tano, you owe me your feeble best. (If you think I am taunting you, it is because I am. All hat and no horse blowhards are a specialty of mine.)
Even that is false, AE. I’ve let you have the last word in many a thread.
As I’ve been saying: truth and accuracy are not your strong suits.
Back on Palin’s media coverage – Courtesy of HotAir headlines, a great little commentary from Dave Kopel:
Heh.
Um, Tano, call Rasmussen a Republican shop if you want, but they got the 2004 and 2008 election splits right –and most recently New Jersey.
And even the polls that show Mr. O over 50% approval show that on nearly every major domestic issue (health care, economy, jobs, deficits), fewer than half Americans polled approve his performance.
And please, please, please respond the points addressed to you
Is Tano the only brown shirt still in lock step with the leftists in here?
