Washington Syndrome
The press has inundated Alaska with reporters and will have shortly interviewed every single person belonging to the 20% that do not rate Sarah Palin highly. Many of the reporters have flocked to the state capital of Juneau. Yes, Alaska has a state capital and it is Juneau. Shocking, well, shocked reports are hitting the press about the inner workings of the Alaskan state government. No one should be shocked, however, since it is obvious that the Alaskan government operates pretty much like every other state government in the nation. Spend some time learning about your state government if you do not believe me. The problem with state governments is called “Washington Syndrome“. It is highly contagious, infecting 90% or more of those exposed. It can also be genetically inherited. The symptoms of … Read entire article »

Joe Biden on His Differences with Sarah Palin
Politico Democrat Joe Biden, in what he intended as self-deprecating remark, observed, “There’s a gigantic difference between John McCain and Barack Obama and between me and I suspect my vice presidential opponent.” … What do you suppose he said the difference was? Energy policy, executive experience, age? “She’s good looking.” That’s the gigantic difference between Joe Biden and Sarah Palin. Joe, I know what you meant to say, and I don’t think it’s going to turn out to be gigantic at all.

Palins Speech From Her Foes
A collection of remarks on Twitter from right after her speech. Little known fact: Sarah Palin is weak sauce indeed. All she did was regurgitate std GOP blather. Not a single new idea in the whole speech. i dont like sarah palin. she has no more experience than obama, and she would suck as prez, which she will be cause mccain’s gonna die soon. Initial reactions to Sarah Palin’s speech: this woman’s bitterness and her scowl indicates, I think, that she has never had an orgasm Bottom line: I do not want to live in Sarah Palin’s America. That’s… if you write fan fiction, please write me some of that. I’d love to read Sarah Palin/Cindy McCain femslash. 1st impression of Sarah Palin is that’s she’s a prime bitch. Good thing I had no plans to … Read entire article »

Loser Says Palin Banned Books
Time is getting a lot of press over its revelation that Sarah Palin, as mayor, tried to ban some books from the local library and threatened to fire the librarian. Stein says that as mayor, Palin continued to inject religious beliefs into her policy at times. “She asked the library how she could go about banning books,” he says, because some voters thought they had inappropriate language in them. “The librarian was aghast.” The librarian, Mary Ellen Baker, couldn’t be reached for comment, but news reports from the time show that Palin had threatened to fire her for not giving “full support” to the mayor. Stein is, curiously, the LOSER that Palin beat in the mayor’s race. Nothing from the librarian and no cites for the “news reports from the time”. Just a … Read entire article »

Sarah Palin as a Beauty Queen
People dismiss the women who participate in beauty pageants as mindless drones enslaved to makeup and plastic surgery. I beg to differ. I would suggest that the fact that Sarah Palin participated in beauty pageants enhances her qualifications for the office of Vice President. It’s called a competition for a reason. The girls and women compete. That takes a certain amount of training and “game day” preparation. You don’t just decide to compete and walk on. You have to study, learn what is expected, and learn how to present yourself in the way the judges expect. And every pageant is different. It takes drive and determination. It takes adaptability and an ability to think on your feet. You learn a set of skills, practice them and then present them in a public forum where … Read entire article »

Palin Pursued By Left
Jay Rosen pointed me to this Talking Points Memo. Marshall makes a couple of points: Mark Halperin quotes George Stephanopoulos as saying that McCain has sent 10 people to Alaska to do more background work on Sarah Palin. He also says “Democrats say… the McCain campaign didn’t even go through Gov. Palin’s local newspapers.” ABC News Senior National Correspondent Jake Tapper reports that folks with the Alaskan Independence Party claim Palin was a member in 1994. Tapper describes the party as a “fringe” party even though it managed to get Walter Hickel elected governor in 1990. Well, let’s see. Noted liberals Marshall, Halperin and Stephanopoulos, as well as “Democrats” have intimate knowledge of the working of the McCain campaign. Sure. [/sarcasm] And, Palin may have belonged to a political party that was strong enough in … Read entire article »

Slamming Sara Palin
Here’s some of the questions the left is raising about Sarah Palin: Inexperience: What would she do about the War on Terror if President? Could she handle the job? This is just a way of slyly pointing out that Sarah Palin is a woman. And, you know, women can’t fight wars. Other than Margaret Thatcher and Golda Mier. And lots of other patriotic, educated, thoughtful women. Motherhood: How can she be a good mother and President? Shouldn’t she be home taking care of her baby? Was John Kennedy a good father? He had small children. Another sly reference to Palin’s sex, and denigrating the abilities of working moms. Foreign policy: She has no foreign policy experience. Just because she’s Governor of a state that borders two foreign countries, she can’t know anything. Barry … Read entire article »

Sarah Palin as Huntress
September 7th, 2008 | Comments Off
I am not a Second Amendment blogger. I do not own a firearm or hunt. No objection to either but was not brought up that way. Palin hunts. It seems that her hunting goes for food. Good. She eats what she kills. I approve. … Read entire article »
