You owe it to your core Salonistas to pick up the phone and call up ATT HQ in Texas and tell them to take their filthy money and stick it where you don't have to see it! Who needs to be on the home page of millions of idiots courtesy a bunch of other idiots in Texas! Just do it!
Perhaps MSNBC and New York times can sue Palin and her strip mall attorney for defamation for accusing them and threatening to sue them when they have not even re-posted the said post yet. Bet Palin won't fuss at fox, who definately does'nt participate in any politics of destruction. Patman
If Glenn tells you the media is a secret tool of the Jews, you all stand on your hind legs and cheer? Can't have it both ways.
And, I quote...
"Governor Palin knowingly permitted a situation to continue where impermissible pressure was placed on several subordinates in order to advance a personal agenda, to wit: to get Trooper Michael Wooten fired," concluded investigator Steve Branchflower in his report made public Friday.
Anchorage Daily News, October 11, 2008
For more, and not just the ADN's take, read the entire Branchflower report on Troopergate. It's a hoot if you have the patience.
Of course, Wooten wasn't a choirboy, however, there is little doubt that the Quitter and her ruggedy beau bent, twisted and contorted their frontiersy conceptualization of ethics in order to lay the man that done the Quitter's sister wrong...low.
Straight talkin' Sarah The Quitter ought to of, in a mavericky way, just admitted up front she considered Wooten a dangerous son-of-a-bitch, and did have it out for him, instead of the convoluted semantic tap-dance she led the collectively misogynistic media on about ad nauseum about doing nothing "wrong".
That damn misogynistic ADN....that damn misogynistic Salon...that damn misogynistic Steven Branchflower.
To love Palin is to shamelessly embrace victimhood, and the mien of a quitter.
Sarah Palin is to American politics what Michael Jackson was to modern American celebrity: An embarrassing spectacle. At least Jackson had talent in his profession or field.
It figures that she would have a clown for a lawyer.
"But aren't you the same people who if Glenn tells you the media is a secret tool of the Jews, you all stand on your hind legs and cheer?"
I can't imagine GG ever saying something like that. Proof please.
Has anyone ever dealt with a bi-polar AKA manic depressive personality before? I am seriously thinking this woman may have this illness. I am not kidding or trying to insult Ms. Palin, I believe she is showing many of the signs.
As someone who has dealt with a person with this illness, I am seeing some eerily familiar behavior. No, I am not a fan of Sarah. But all that aside, I am wondering if this woman has a health problem.
If you have dealt with a person who has truly been diagnosed with this illness (not just a 'maybe' diagnosis) you know that the illness makes the person extremely difficult to deal at times with and they might act as Ms. Palin is now.
I am not a doctor, and I am not trying to start rumors. I just have seen this type of behavior before.
Speculation is not accusation, and "Todd is no stranger to construction" or however you worded it is not nearly as clever as obviously intended. Thus journalists (and "journalists") will not be silenced by your threats (defamation? please), nor is creative writing in your future, should the lawyering gig go the way (south) of Palin, also obviously.
I sense some left-wing freakage about Palin 2012. Relax. If Palin was nominated, Obama would put his head down on his desk and laugh for about ten minutes. Do you realize how many urban Republicans would stay home rather than vote for her? How many blacks would come out to support Obama? How many young people and Hispanics would be repelled by her party's social conservatism and racism? How obviously thin her resume is? The Party would realize that if she ran, there would be a massive coattail effect down the ticket in Democrats' favor. A Palin defeat would be so huge that afterward the party would break apart, as outraged factions decided they could no longer live with one another.
She would never be nominated. Never. But the 'Pubs have a problem: who ELSE can they nominate? Not many choices left out there. They will probably end up with some approximation of a social conservative who will be hobbled from the start by party infighting. Obama will coast to re-election and he'll have a Congress that's about 70% Democratic.
Let's talk about global warming instead now, please.
"Why are Dem's so Spooked by Palin?"
___________________________________
Are Dems spooked? I don't think so. I haven't been able to stop laughing since Mark Sanford weeped to his state about his girlfriend. Palin is just another stop on the GOP crazy train.
Seasonal depression certainly is real, which is why I don't mock her tanning bed, or rumors thereof. As for Manic-Depression, I don't see any evidence of the depressive feature. Manic, sure, which is a characteristic of her narcissism, and you could also make a decent case for histrionic p.d., usually the flip side of narcissism.
Beautifully articulated. I'm a Progressive (not left-wing, yet), and I sorely miss the worthy "enemies" of the Pre-W years . . .
As much as I am glad that people are finally waking up to how bad the Republicans are, I have mixed feelings that so many people are piling on to Sarah Palin, a not-very-powerful woman who was plucked out of obscurity to be a a human sacrifice so that we can ignore the real criminals.
Or they will completely ignore her.
It is completely lose-lose all around for Palin, either she gets hounded by the MSM for the next 3 and half years for quitting her governorship after only 2 and half years on the job, or she is ignored because she is a quitter and has no political power.
If she gets a show on Fox NEWS (the only outlet that would hire her), do the executives of NEWS COPRS really think her show will get ratings?
As a beauty queen and snarky comedian, Palin can turn a few heads, but giving interviews and commentary is certainly not her strong suit.
