Sarah Palin Doesn’t Vomit On Camera

therefore she showed her coolness under fire from impolitic liberals/progressives who probably hang out with terrorists. See how that works?

Palin Limerick
Jul 5, 2010 sarah palin
Moosiah is styled Supermom
AK bloggers then tossed her a βomb
No gut and no bυm
So where was Trig from?
“Why, from Jeebus,” she lιes with aplomb.
Original here.
IMO, Babygate is dumb. I’m with Andy Sullivan: a child came out of her body, but I have questions about her judgment flying ten hours across the country and then driving to the hospital over ten hours AFTER her water broke.
Nonetheless, it’s good electronic doggerel.
Did Sarah Palin get a boob job?
Jun 9, 2010 Train Wrecks, Uncategorized, sarah palin
The burning question being asked by the celebrity blogs concerns parts of Sarah Palin’s anatomy I’d rather not think about.
So did she or didn’t she? What do you think? Wonkette thinks she did. Here’s a yahoo slide show so you can decide for yourself.
Did the boob get a job?
We’re All Alaskans Now
May 17, 2010 sarah palin
Granted, my state competes with the 49th for alphabetical supremacy; but Arizona , the other ‘A’ state, has become a watershed in the strange career of Sarah Palin. First she endorsed John McCain, the establishment candidate fighting off an insurgent tea party talk-show host; now she’s declared that “we’re all Arizonans now“:
Jan Brewer and Palin blamed President Barack Obama for the state law, saying the measure is Arizona’s attempt to enforce immigration laws because the federal government won’t do it.
Really? Obama was able to reach back in time and convince Republican Senators to kill their own president’s immigration reform bill in 2007? What a feat!
I want to thank Keith Olbermann for bursting the bubble around the I-word. Sarah Palin defines the word “idiot,” and it’s long past time we all started calling her one. As Thomas Jefferson said, ridicule is the only weapon that can be used against an unintelligible proposition; Sarah being just chock-full of unintelligible propositions, ridicule is what she deserves.
Am I being unkind? Well, she believes in John Bircher lies and Third Wave nonsense; she tells lies on a regular basis (Teh Death Panelz™) and spreads fear. She brought the ugly teabagger element out during the 2008 campaign and panders to its worst instincts. As far as I’m concerned, she’s earned the derision.
More Teabaggers Failing – Palin Edition
May 8, 2010 Sarah Palin 2012, The Teabagger Fail, sarah palin
Sarah Palin endorsed the “demon-sheep” establishment candidate Carly Fiorina this week, causing many of her supporters to complain right on her Facebook page. Of course, the whole purpose of Palin’s Facebook-centered campaign is to avoid exactly that sort of confrontation, which is why media figures increasingly question coverage of her Facebook releases. Nor is Palin’s Twitter account free of scrutiny (note to Sarah: it’s generally not a good idea to use a “foreign company” as your whipping-boy when your husband has spent years working for said “foreign company”).
This is the default GOP nominee for 2012.
Sarah Palin’s Rider
Apr 14, 2010 Sarah Palin's poltical future, sarah palin
Ever since I made my first Sarahpalooza! video at her book signing in Birmingham, I have wished to see Sarah Palin’s rider. Yesterday, part of it leaked via some enterprising college kids aware of Supreme Court precedent and a helpfully incompetent secretary. The internet is abuzz with revelations: she’s made $12 million since leaving office, meaning she obviously quit to cash in. She requires bendy-straws and a private jet (first-class tickets if the appearance is abroad). None of the diva-stuff surprises me, least of all this at the beginning:
Due to the Speaker’s professional endeavors and high profile, arrangements of the highest order are necessary for the maintenance of the Speaker’s security and the security of the audience. Customer agrees to provide security arrangements as deemed necessary by the WSB and the Speaker.
Sarah is not afraid of some liberal assassin. In terms of personal security, she has more to fear from infatuated crazy men than liberals. What actually scares Sarah is her own foot in her own mouth caught on camera. For example, the rider requires all audience questions to be pre-screened; her show on FOX consists of reading from a teleprompter to introduce segments. Audiences are prevented from bringing cameras or cell phones into venues.
This, and not fear for her life, is the reason police presence was at least three times bigger and private security far more ubiquitous for Palin than it had been for Mike Huckabee the day before. It is also why every FOX affiliate within 200 miles sent vehicles to occupy the space where Huckabee’s bus had sat the day before.
Sarah’s rider also contains diagrams for how photo opportunities should be arranged to speed up the line. At $10,000 a pop, it pays to get as many suckers through the door as you can.
Murdoch’s Palin Fail
Apr 1, 2010 Teh Train Wreck™, sarah palin
I’m predicting that Murdoch’s deal with Sarah Palin will turn out exactly like his deal for MySpace: an expensive, public humiliation.
For those who haven’t heard, Sarah’s new show will include interviews with L.L. Cool J and Toby Keith. Actually, the show will be Sarah presenting old interviews with the stars. Both Cool J and Keith have let it be known they have never met Sarah.
That is because no TV executive in his right mind would put the woman in a studio interview that wasn’t tightly-controlled, even as a host. Sarah would probably refuse to do that kind of show anyway because presentation is pretty much all she can handle.
God forbid she has an actual conversation with someone who’s not a sycophant; and homework on a guest? Fuggetaboutit.
Worse, Sarah Palin without a script could very well turn into the How Sue Sees It segment on Glee:
There’s enormous potential downside because this Alaskan flake melts down easily. Murdoch and Ailes will never find a use for her that makes back anything like the money they will spend — but that is not the point of having her on the air. She’s the face of the right’s new permanent revolution, after all.
Like MySpace, she’ll never quite go away; she’ll just linger there sucking up revenue.
Morning Awful
Mar 25, 2010 Eliminationist Rhetoric, Morning Awful, sarah palin
Palin’s “hit list” for November. With people throwing bricks through office windows and cutting gas lines, you’d think she wouldn’t up the ante on eliminationist rhetoric. But then you would be a rational person, which she decidedly isn’t.
Palin’s Party Prattle

Sarah wants a new third party to, y’know, make Republicans have to debate harder an’ stuff:
ThinkProgress has a list of her statements about a third party; up til now she has taken the more popular position among teabaggers that the movement shouldn’t form its own party. But Sarah was never good at that consistent-thought thing, and she’s always eager to grow her personality cult one way or another.
Yes, Republicans, your creation will now go to war with you. Bad enough it was shouting insults and spitting on Congress members over the weekend; now it’s going to take all those RNC-supplied signs and attack you with them. But keep it up! You’re doing great!
idiocracy

The Texas School Board has officially jumped the couch:
9:40 – We’re just picking ourselves up off the floor. The board’s far-right faction has spent months now proclaiming the importance of emphasizing America’s exceptionalism in social studies classrooms. But today they voted to remove one of the greatest of America’s Founders, Thomas Jefferson, from a standard about the influence of great political philosophers on political revolutions from 1750 to today. (Emphasis mine)
Via RightWingWatch. The events were liveblogged here. And yes, this does impact you because Texas schoolbook standards are every other state’s by default. That’s how the industry works, and the wingnuts were quite aware of this when they targeted this obscure panel for activist candidates. They mean to install an idiocracy, folks.
Speaking of which, my latest YouTube offering is about the return of paranoid politics to America. Enjoy.
Adding: the song is by the defunct metal band idiot, and was pressed to CD before the movie of the same name was ever made.
