Resignation Follows The Letterman/Palin Skirmish!!

Published at:  Jan 11, 2010 10:21:12 PM CST




I am – Hercules!!




Mere weeks after dozens of Sarah Palin supporters gathered outside the Ed Sullivan Theater to call for David Letterman’s resignation as host of CBS’ “The Late Show,” it’s Palin who has ended up resigning, announcing Friday she’s ending her stint as Alaska governor just two and a half years into her first term.

The AP speculates that the resignation may have been precipitated by an interest in a 2012 presidential run, but my guess is the GOP would sooner nominate Rush Limbaugh or that Joe The Plumber guy. Many believe Palin’s blank stares during interviews with Katie Couric and Charlie Gibson cost running mate John McCain the 2008 election:



After her snowmobile-racer husband Todd alleged that Letterman had taken to joking about the rape of 14-year-old daughter Willow Palin, I’m not sure Sarah Palin could snag a major-party nomination for Wasilla comptroller. I put it to my fellow Republicans in talkback: How many of you would seek the nomination of Palin over Tim Pawlenty or Jeb Bush at this point?

My guess is Sarah Palin is quitting Alaska because FoxNews wants to put her to work – presumably bitching about how slowly the new president is digging us out of this incredible hole we’re all in – while her 45-year-old kisser is a bit more camera-friendly. Had she served out her full first term ending December 2010, a slightly more wrinkly Palin might have had to settle for a (presumably lower-paying) Republican radio show.

Again, this is just my speculation; there have been zero announcements of Palin joining FoxNews alongside the likes of fellow former government employees Oliver North and Karl Rove, but: I predict we’ll be hearing an announcement sooner rather than later.

Letterman, meanwhile, so far gets to keep his network TV job. (The Palin fracas actually brought a nice boost his ratings.) If the veteran talk show host has suddenly taken to making jokes about raping underage teens, you’d hope such incidents would have popped up on YouTube by now -- yet I've found curiously little along these lines. Here, for an example, is a recent Letterman interview with a 14-year-old girl; note that, even as he scores laughs at his own expense, he fails to wedge in a gag about raping her:

    by tall_boy66

    She's obviously getting ready for the invasion of 2012. Also? Herc is posting blatant flame-bait to get a response out of Talkbackers, considering how this has little to zero relevance to late-night television. So there was a minor war of words, big fucking deal. Her resignation isn't TV news for fuck's sake. Very lame of you, Herc, but I hope you get a jolly out of the ensuring flame-war soon to follow.

    Everyone is focused on the wrong stuff. You may not like Palin, but don't forget that Democrats support the murder of unborn children. The blood of them is on the hands of Obama and all that support him. Like slavery, abortion is an attack on humanity. You simply cannot be a good person and support the Democrat Party.

    In the past 8 years, the Republican party: stole an election from the Democrats, allowed over one thousand of our brave men and women to die in an unjust war and flat out lied to us about why we went there, allowed the second most powerful man in the country to shoot a buddy in the face on a hunting trip and remain in office, allowed another senator to have pics of and liasons with underage boys, allowed torture and the destruction of civil liberties in the name of freedom, attempted to combine their religious agendas with our govt. when one of the tenets of this country is separation of church and state, protected corporate thieves who stole from the workers, sent our economy into the shitter, and refused to admit wrongdoing for any of it and you say the Dems are bad people?!?!? Honestly, anyone who blindly supports either party without first weighing the individual issues is off his/her rocker, but right now supporting the Republicans is like supporting a dictatorship. ---- and Herc, thanks for bringing a political firebomb into what is supposed to be an entertainment site...smooth move, bub.

    Fuck Tim Pawlenty. Fuck him right in his stupid ass. There's a guy who never EVER cared about any of his constituency outside of the Minneapolis/St. Paul metro area. Of course that may be because outstate MN (especially northern MN - I voted in the "bluest" county in the nation in 2004) was never going to vote for him no matter what, so - what's the upside to showing concern and respect for the people you govern, if they're not likely to help to re-elect you? Seriously - fuck that guy. Sorry - had to get it off of my chest.

    He prefaces the interview with "hey, here's an interview with a 14-year-old," an interview that is actually with Alec Baldwin. Alec Baldwin talks a lot about stuff that has nothing do with acting. Alec Baldwin plays Jack Donaghy, a Republican. On 30 ROCK.

    Yeah, sounds like a possible presidential or senate run. The funny thing is outside the press, New York & Los Angeles, she is very popular, she easily gets 20,000 strong in attendance. But the story remains the same Republican redneck & stupid and Democrats brilliant. Which of course means she'll probably win, cuz apparently she's stupid. McCain was known as being a smart Repub so he lost, and Barack is the smartest man on earth, reminds me a lot of John Kerry, Jimmy Carter, & walter Mondale...we'll see.

    Media Bias

    by voice o. reason

    You could really see the different biases on cable news after the announcement. MSNBC was talking about how Palin is political dead meat and is probably leaving politics altogether. Fox was talking about how she's this giant victim and is probably gearing up for a 2012 run. CNN went back almost immediately to talking about Michael Jackson.

    3) The thing I am not hearing from even ONE of my Republican brethren: "Hell yes, nominate her for president! She'll wipe the floor with Barack Obama!" She is DEAD in politics; Republican media is the only destination available to her.

    4) I'm one of the 30% of good Republicans who favors baby-killing.

    5) If you took Palin's side during this teen-rape-joke horseshit you are an enemy of comedy and an enemy of entertainment and I pray to my lord the sweet baby Jesus on His throne high in Heaven that He comdemn you to eternity in Hell watching Jay Leno and Carson Daly repeats.

    Especially you, Herc. Where she is headed is the campaign trail for whoever candidate she chooses to endorse. You may not like it, but she has a LOT of pull with voters. Endorsing a senate candidate? No. Endorsing a person running for the House, who are directly elected by the people in a district? Absolutely. She has a LOT of power with people on the local, grass roots level. She will help tip congressional races, that much is certain. If you are an incumbent, look out in 2010. I just hope she stays true to her word and endorses candidates regardless of party.

That's way you never see any of these trophy wives leave their husbands after they cheat on them. Even though they'd be set up for life anyway. Their drug of choice is power and influence and at some point in their marragies they make a pack or sort of a team instead of a tipacle man and wife thing. I think something bad is about to come down. But never fear, she'll make more money now w/ speeches, books, tv, fixed noise helping other folk get elected and getting paid for it. That is something she couldnl't have gotten being a public person and now being a private one provides income for perspective politicians. Mark it down, more than likley she has a scandel about to hit or the power players made a deal and said we won't go public if you resign asap.

    by curious jorge

    A woman who is seriously considering a 2012 run would not be resigning her high office like this. No, I believe she's doing this because the liberals just won't leave her alone. How much have you heard about John McCain in the last six months? Very little. How much about Mitt Romney, the other presumed GOP frontrunner for 2012? Practically nothing. What about Newt Gingrich, whole actually is building a grassroots organization to challenge Obama? Nothing. And yet liberal are obsessed with trashing Sarah Palin and her kids; it's an addiction that they just can't break.

    A woman's greatest weak spot is her children. It was more than the joke Letterman made; it's the fact that all of America that night was laughing about the sexual behavior of her teenage daughter. Nothing is off-limits when it comes to attacking Sarah Palin, even her children are fair game.

    For many decades liberals fought for equal opportunity for women, and when it comes to Sarah Palin, liberals throw all of that out the window. Is it even possible for a woman who has young children to run for the presidency anymore? I guarantee that even liberal women with children who might have considered it will look at how Sarah Palin was utterly destroyed and think twice.

    More violence, rape, incest fantasies from the tolerant left. Why can't you just disagree with her policies? What is it about a conservative woman that drives you so bonkers?

    Obama quit his job in the Senate to run for president but wasn't called a quitter. He spent half his time in the senate running for president and missed 1/4 of the votes.

    Palin is being harassed by meritless ethics probes - 15 so far, all 15 dismissed. She has to pay for her own defense and since she isn't a Democrat politician she doesn't have a huge slush fund of kickbacks and payola. Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Charlie Rangel, William Jefferson - those guys could teach her a few things about maximizing the income potential of public office.

    Anyone who thinks she actually said she can see Russia from her house is too stupid to have a vote. Obama did say he'd been to all 57 states, though, so is he a moron too? And Biden, don't get me started. Anyone who has a microphone shoved in their face 24/7 is going to say something stupid, probably several things.

    I agree with you with regards to how anyone who has a microphone shoved in their face 24/7 is going to slip up eventually. However, I think with Palin, it's the things she said intentionally that disturb people just as much as what she said unintentionally, like her continually insistence that the current president pals around with terrorists, and the continual use of the word "Maverick" to describe herself and McCain, and so forth. People object to how she is being dragged through the gutter now, but she engaged in gutter politics of the worst kind. I do however agree that the press should leave her alone now that the election is over...simply because I'm tired of hearing about her.

    It wasn't because somebody found some dirt on her. It wasn't because she couldn't take the attacks. It was because the attacks were affecting her ability to run the government. The government was having to investigate all those phony ethics complaints. That takes time and money. She did the honorable thing by resigning so that her governorship would no longer be a hindrance.

    Herc, let me say this plain as day, Hell yes, nominate her for president! She'll wipe the floor with Barack Obama!"

    by ferf muckmeyer

    Palin was QUOTED as saying she had enough of politics. It may be bullshit and she may really be planning a run in 2012, but I doubt it. I think she just could not take the heat from the media. Read the Vanity Fair article about her from last month - it's SCATHING. It makes her look worse than ever - a complete moron. She's getting out of the political scene.

    If she can fetch $50K - $100K per speech as a private citizen or score a huge contract with FOX News, why would she want to put up with all the bullshit thrown at her? (Not that she doesn't deserve it, but why would ANYONE???) She's cashing in on her fame. Forget about 2012 - it will probably be Romney or Pawlenty as the nominee.

    PALIN: That Alaska has a very narrow maritime border between a foreign country, Russia, and on our other side, the land-- boundary that we have with-- Canada. It-- it's funny that a comment like that was-- kind of made to-- cari-- I don't know, you know? Reporters--

    COURIC: Mock?

    PALIN: Yeah, mocked, I guess that's the word, yeah.

    COURIC: Explain to me why that enhances your foreign policy credentials.


    PALIN: Well, it certainly does because our-- our next door neighbors are foreign countries. They're in the state that I am the executive of. And there in Russia--

    COURIC: Have you ever been involved with any negotiations, for example, with the Russians?

    PALIN: We have trade missions back and forth. We-- we do-- it's very important when you consider even national security issues with Russia as Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where-- where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border. It is-- from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, Russia, because they are right there. They are right next to-- to our state."
    you HAVE to admit that is a pretty ridiculous answer, when you read it, yeah?and the Palin supporter video I posted earlier:http://tinyurl.com/3wbsxr
    I know those are the EXTREME end of her supporters, but they are still her supporters. perhaps the EXTREME end of Obama supporters are sandal wearing, pot smoking hippies who think Palin is an idiot, but...to be honest, isn't that better than ill-informed, overtly racist rednecks that say if Obama wins the blacks will take over?if we're comparing extremes, I mean. honestly, watch the video, and if it doesn't shock you, I'll be surprised.

Federal investigators have been looking into this for some time, and indictments could be imminent, according to the Alaska sources."

    Jeez. Biased much?

    by bizarrojerry

    So, this has been posted just to rant against Palin? I can't figure out the hate people have for her. She was a bad candidate for VP, let alone president. And I don't think she's much of any kind of politician. She's even probably done enough to be considered weird, or stupid, or whatever. But I have yet to understand the utter hatred some people have for this woman. She's already considered by some a significant reason McCain lost, so liberals and dems should actually like her.And yeah, their reaction to Letterman was WAY over the top, and probably intentionally so, but even if he didn't mean what he said in reference to the younger daughter, at the very least the joke was basically "Palin's daughter's a slut cuz she got pregnant." Meanwhile, we continually get all excited about the single hollywood actresses "baby bumps" and hear all about them being great single moms. I can see why Baldwin doesn't like her, cuz he calls his own daughter a pig. Then there was Bill Maher the other night making some "retarded" comment in a joke, in a subtle reference to Palin's Down's Syndrome kid. Classy, Bill.Should I add that when Bill Clinton told everyone to stop making fun of Chelsea they all saluted and clicked their heels?

    hating Palin is NOT sexist

    by oisin5199

    you can think someone's a whackjob, or completely unintelligent and uninformed, or backstabbing, vindictive, unable to listen or compromise, delusional and hypocritical, without it having anything to do with their gender. It has nothing do with being sexist. In my opinion, choosing Palin as a running mate WAS sexist, as there are many, many women who might be qualified for the position. Choosing Palin over intelligent women with experience was a slap in the face to women who have earned their place in politics. And it allowed Republicans to scream 'sexism' when they knew damn well that Palin was put out there as a pretty face with no substance, who could sway the idiot masses with slogans and winks. I can only hope this woman disappears from the limelight so we never have to deal with her again. But I know that's too good to be true.

    So the possibility that she was in over her head seems more probable now. And yes, I'd agree with those who say her political career is pretty much dead in the water at this point. Still... the amount of personal attacks against her during the election and since just boggles the mind.

    by emeraldboy

    turning all governments mad. last year in ireland gangland murders claimed the lives of two totally innocent people. Yesterday was the last day before the dail rises for the summer. The government rushed the brand new crime bill through all stages of the house. The crime bill 2008 and the survaillance bill give the gardai unprencedent new powers like entering a persons home without a warrant to spy on crime gangs in an area. life in prison for directing a crime gang, making it a criminal offence to intefere and intimidate witness. This is from the minister for justice who is trying to re-introduce Blasphemy law under the new privacy bill defamation act. and who wont tell the irish people which group demeanded its re-introduction. I am all for taking crime gangs. Laws like this should not be rushed and there should be no emotional attachment to bringing thes things in. which is what the minister is doing. and dont get me started on striking in a recession. There is no difference between our govt and opposition. they remind me of new labour and the tories. What is happening in ireland is coming uk's way. Even down to the spat about not being allowed to see the figures from Finanances.

    "She would wipe the floor with Obama?"
    Excluding wether he is an effective president or even a good or bad one, the man is an incredible political animal. And even more so, a powerful campaigner and speaker.
    The guy debated political powerhouses such as Hillary Clinton and John McCain and KILLED THEM! He took on the Clinton Machine and the Republican Party and WIPED them off the map. He can raise record amounts of money and is incredibly likable. You might not like him, but the vast majority of America find him personable and charismatic. Attacking his appeal is like the Democrats attacking Reagan's, it is a sign of denial.
    Sarah Palin is only admired by Republicans for what she stands for, not what she is capable of. She is horrible in interviews, knows nothing about politics or policy and was embarrassed by Joe Biden in the debates. If she had been forced to campaign for a full year instead of a few months she would have been torn to pieces by not only the press or the Democrats, but also her Republican opponents.
    You nominate Sara Palin as your candidate, you will see the Republican party become obsolete and vanish like the Whigs.

    by continentalop

    The Republicans used to attack Al Sharpton all the time as well - in fact they still do. There was something about him that drives them nuts. They keep talking about him, and he has never run for VP or has ever been considered a POTUS candidate. He also has many avid supporters as well, many of them who thinks like he does. That does not mean he is a valid candidate for President, or that the Dems should ever push him just because he annoys Republicans.

    She's got a 72% approval rating among Republicans? That's the funniest thing I've heard all day. If I were a GOP member I'd nominate a stick of butter before Palin. I mean, seriously.

    And to all the folks spouting anti-Obama crap: it's easy to call names, isn't it? A lot harder to back that up with actual opinions and facts. Put up or shut up.

    It's funny... I try to be open-minded and fair

    by llghtst0rmer

    ...because for the last 8 years, I had to endure the anguish of seeing "the other guys" in charge. We lost two elections in a row (and not entirely fairly,) to a guy who couldn't seem to find his own ass with both hands and a map. He and his cronies pissed all over the Constitution of our country to benefit their needs and the needs of their rich friends. They championed religion over science, certainty over intelligence and brute strength over diplomacy. They embraced war and seemed to have no interest at all in peace. They played every dirty political game in the book and made up a few new ones. They drove an even larger wedge between the people of this country, and got us to fight their pointless culture war so we paid less attention to their corruption and political manipulating. They did so much to frustrate me more and more every week and made me ashamed of my country for not just getting them elected, but for voting for them at all.

    So when my side finally won, I decided to be patient with the other half - the people who voted against my guy. I understand how frustrating it is when someone who doesn't act in accordance with your beliefs is in charge. I see the people on the right pulling their hair out, and I sympathize - not because of the issues, but because of the experience of having been there.

    But as I read posts from Cotton McKnight and people who champion Sarah Palin and trash Obama, who say she would've been a better President, the liberal media is on a non-stop character assassination mission against her, that Obama is a tyrant, that it's his fault we're in the financial mess... it occurs to me that it simply doesn't matter how much I'm willing to sympathize with the right-wingers, no amount of understanding or patience on my part will make any difference because, well, conservatives...

    YOU'RE. ALL. FUCKING. STUPID.

    by stvnhthr

    Letterman was confused about which daughter was at a baseball game and meant to joke about the older daughter having sex, but it ended up sounding like he was talking about the younger daughter being raped. Letterman made it worse by mockingly apologizing. It showed very little class on his part. Palin quitting is in bad form if it is for a better job. Politicians serve the people, not their own careers.

    Yeah, Letterman was confused about which daughter, but had Bristol actually been at the baseball game, the joke would have been fair. Why? She's 18, and she is also putting herself in the spotlight by becoming the spokesperson for celibacy. She got knocked up as a teenager and now she's spreading the word about celibacy? It's about as ridiculous as her mother derailing her running mate's presidental campaign and then running for president herself.

    No one said criticizing Palin in itself is sexist. What IS sexis

    by coughlins laws

    is personally attacking her in ways you never would a male politician. Attacking her looks, calling her slutty, making fun of her Special Needs child, making jokes about her daughters' being sluts or whores, attacking the number of kids she has, etc, are ALL sexist. Attack her lack of knowledge on foreign policy. Attack the fact that McCain picked her without realizing she wasn't ready for a National Campaign and didn't have a command of the facts she'd need to know outside Alaska. That kind of shit is fair game. However, she was the most personally attacked politician I've ever seen in my lifetime, with daily, vicious attacks against her family, and hardly ANYONE wanting to talk about the issues she's strong on (energy, reforming in her own state, etc.)
    I feel a little bit sorry for her but politics is a bitch. If she ever has a prayer of returning to the National Stage, maybe some time away will help and she can bone up on things she needs help with. 2012 is totally out for her and if she is going to try a run, she'll be laughed out of contention. It's possible, once her kids have grown a little, she can re-emerge as a legitimate candidate in 2016. It depends on what she's doing now. I suspect she'd have to leave Alaska and relocate somewhere in the D.C. area or New York. Who knows. But the point is, congratulations to the dailykos, The Huffington Post, The Wonkette, etc, etc, etc. You guys have successfully ridiculed, mocked, and personally destroyed the reputation of a major politician and drove her out of office!!! A great accomplishment!!! Don't you guys feel better about yourselves now? Only one problem, who will you go after next? The usual, I suppose, Limbaugh, anyone on Fox News, Newt Gingrich...

    Criticizing Palin

    by kafka07

    Most people that I know never made fun of her special needs child. But they did go after her ties to the secessionist Alaska Independence Party. Her candidacy for vice president was extremely divisive. She's a wacko creationist who doesn't believe in basic science and common sense. She was incoherent half the time, and the other half she decided to insult and alienate half the people in this country. People saw that she would have been a female George Bush and didn't want to go through that bullshit again. She destroyed herself. Lots of pundits (including that racist Limbaugh) made abhorrent racist criticisms and jokes about Obama but it didn't destroy him.

    The timing of the announcement here, on July 3rd, after MOST news organizations are slotted through the holidays, most have already ran off on va-ca's and shut down shop- THEN Palin makes an exit announcement. IF it was meant to be GOOD news it would have gone out on Monday- LAST Monday. Coming out FRIDAY, right before a major holiday, means that there will now be a holiday weekend's potential of news to creep up and drown most any kind of "investigative reporting" into the reasons of her quitting. She has wagged the dog like this in the past, like when her Troopergate indictments were coming down and she ran to the press about Bristol's pregnancy to drown that off. I'm hoping that she DOES try to run for president. The worst portion of the last campaign was the fact that her political history and real public record was drown out by her media air-headedness. Her record shows her to be a walking disaster, dispite whatever spin she and her cohorts want to say- just look at the FACTS past the FLUFF. I kind of liked McCain until she came on board and there was NO WAY she'd make a good VP. I always figured the RNC set her up with McCain intentionally to try to make them both insignificant at once- especially considering Bush's numbers- there was little hope of ANY Republican candidate making that election. Now Palin will be looked at as both a loser and a quitter- oh yeah, it'll be a miracle if she holds ANY public office again. Sanford has a better chance. And with Tuesday slated for Michael Jackon's memorial, her quitting will be long gone quickly from the media unless another scandal shows up. I kind of figured she would go down in history more insignificant than Dan Quayle.

I actually LIKED John McCain(I liked him a lot more before he sold out his ideals to get the Republican support,but nonetheless.) I can honestly say I would have voted for McCain if he had gone with a stronger running mate. Palin looked and sounded like an inexperienced idiot from day one and anyone with an iota of intelligence can see that she has no fucking clue whats going on. Did she cost McCain the election? I dont know,but she sure as hell cost him MY vote.

    by indyhu

    Let's say the Russians of old and the Iranians of today were in a running race. Let's say that the Iranians win the race. The news headline on the cover of Pravda would read "Russians almost win race, Iranians come in next to last. The Iranian papers would say "Iran beats everyone, Russians come in last". This is, in a nutshell what our own different news programs do to us and we just saw it here as well. Fox says what is on the right, CNN and others state what is on the left and we have to pick out the truth from what the stories of both say. When will objective journalism return?

    Who Will Be President When...

    by red dawn don

    Who will be president when NORTH KOREA starts raining down NUKES on the USA? Sadam had WOMD, he used them on the KURDS and Sheites. On topic, if Hillary gave up a sweet Senator job to become Sec of State, then Sarah is allowed to take a few questionable steps. Sarah did not cause McCain to fail, American politics is pendulum-istic. Lots of voters run from one side to the other side thinking they are making a needed difference. In talk show hosts, Jay Leno is the most balanced in his barbing jokes, he lampoons both sides. Unlike David and his bias in favor of the liberal side. Hopefully, AICN will allow equal attacks on Liberals and Conservatives. Lastly, to one of the above posters, the chicken eggs we eat are not fertilized by the male.

    by squarebird

    Man, its like every man who was castrated by feminism and political correctness are taking it all out on the first female target they consider acceptable to beat up on. Sarah Palin is a breath of fresh air precisely because she is not a polished professional politician. But I sure do trust her more than I do just about anyone currently in the Senate. Maybe she will run for the Senate. Everyone has forgotten how being a Senator rehabilitated Hillary Clinton's cretinous image. An aside - if the mother bear did not come out of Sarah in response to the nationally (world) televised sex joke involving her 14 year-old daughter at the baseball game, she would be slammed for that. Did Hercules come out this strongly against the parents of the under-age basketball players who got Imus fired for his joke? I am angry not so much for the joke but for the double standard. If everyone was fair game, then fine. But comedy has already been crippled and it wasn't done by the Right.

    Palin

    by wrath4771

    It's pretty obvious to anyone with two brain cells that Herc just put this talkback up to take one of his liberal digs at Palin. Palin is grossly inexperienced. If I had any input in her political career I would have had her knock it off with the national politics and concentrate on her duties as governor. Then, instead of running again, I would have her run for one of the senate seats in Alaska. Then, with that experience under her belt, go on the Ronald Regan listening tour like he did after his term in California ended. Then and only then, would I let her consider running for the presidency. Sure her hotness would be long gone (and should never be an asset in the first place) but hopefully she would have a much better understanding of how everything works. And for the liberal Democrat jackoffs who still whine and cry about 2000, thanks to voter fraud in Chicago and most of Texas, Richard Nixon was cost the 1960 election, so call it even up on stealing elections. (And now I patiently await for the liberal drooler to bring up how bad Nixon was so I can take them to task about who got us out of Vietnam, who ended the draft, who avoided a second Cuban Missile Crisis, and who was the most respected U.S. President around the world).

    Testify. Bush did a lot of things wrong, but as Democrats blame everyting on Iraq and Afghanistan, the Democrat led congress has had the ability to cut off the purse strings and has failed to do so. Now I fully believe it's a bad idea to cut off the purse string, but I'm just saying the Dems could do it if they wanted to - especially since they have their 60 majority now. On top of that and their continuation of TARP (a bad idea in my opinion) not only will they continue with Bush policies, but now they want to spend god knows how much to socialize medicine. Thanks to what Bush started and the Dems continue to pile on, we're looking at a VAT (Value Added Tax) within the next 15 years. Watch the bitching when people have to pay a federal tax on their comic books.

    ...you'll ever see in talkback come courtesy of Republicans. Three things spring immediately to mind:

    1) People who say "Obama is as bad as Bush! They both suck! Waaaaah!" Each and every one of them would have been overjoyed at seeing Palin as vice president and if McCain/Palin had won, they'd have had nothing but nice things to say about Bush and how much better things are under Republican rule.

    2) The "Palin is actually smart and would crush Obama" people. Uuuhhh, riiiight. Like the good Continentalop said, Republicans attacking Obama's appeal is like Democrats attacking Reagan's -- it's simple, sad denial and borderline lunacy. Palin is an utter moron, plain and simple.

    3) The Republicans who think Palin running for president would be a good idea. Here's some news for you idiots: Most democrats, liberals and independents who want to keep the GOP out of office ALSO think Palin running for president would be a good idea.

    Docpazuzu's words ring true

    by smackfu

    The fact that Democrats *want* Palin to run for President should be a huge, huge tipoff that maybe she's not exactly the best or smartest candidate out there. This whole Orwellian double-think thing you guys have going on is really just hurting you at this point. Basically whoever the Party throws infront of you as a nominee immediately becomes a perfect person in your eyes, they could literally nominate a mentally handicapped Walmart Greeter and your entire flock would back it. Is that any different than Dems and Obama? Yes, because in our case this election *Clinton* was the nominee the party was thrusting at us to run with, and instead we picked the underdog because we thought he was 100% the better candidate than the one the party heads were leaning to. It would be like if last election you guys all backed Huckabee instead of McCain. But you didn't. You backed the guy (and eventually girl) your overlords wanted you to. And look where it got you. Had you picked Huckabee, you might have actually had a shot, because agree with his politics or not, he's obviously a smart and together guy, and he would have never wasted his VP pick on a publicity stunt like McCain did.

    Palin is now Batshit Insane and a Quitter

    by g100

    Perhaps the letters on the fridge magnets were giving her secret instructions to act totally unhinged ?
    Many Republicans have been slamming Palin as hard as some Dems in recent weeks so the constant shrewish whining about the Media from the same hypocrite who said Hillary should stop whining about unfair Media attacks just won't fly.
    So why did she quit ?
    Might be a Fox News job or a high profile commentating gig.
    Might be that she saw the writing on the wall as her Governorship was sailing towards the rocks since her local popularity was falling fast and her GOP brethren were getting mighty pissed off at the lack of action and meaningful legisaltion.
    Might be her book deal with Rupert Murdoch. Might even be Levi Jonhson's upcoming tell all book about the Palins that could sink her for good.
    Might be the rumblings of certain Federal charges being prepared in regard to property misdeeds.
    Might even be she fancied a "hike up the Appalachian Trail" as I believe it is now called.
    One things for certain though. After watching her loony tunes resignation "announcement" you would be none the fucking wiser as to the real reason she quit.
    And how on earth does anyone think that she could be a serious Presidential Candidate after Quitting the Governorship ?
    If being the Governor or being in the spotlight of the Media was far too tough for you you don't belong anywhere near the Big Chair or a high profile Government job. Quitters don't play well in the red states either.
    Still, at least Bill Kristol still loves her. And he's never wrong. (I suspect Bill just wants to hike up her Appalachian Trail)

You could call it Hopeychangeland and you'd have control of all the basketcase states like Illinois, California and Louisiana. Without the constant influx of naive young people from Blue states that actually have functioning social structures with above replacement-level reproduction you'd collapse into Brazilian or French-style aristocracy; Landed white Liberals in SF/Chicago/NYC, permanent, illiterate, dependent underclass in the squalid suburbs.

    Even for Palin that's hardly fucking Rocket Science.
    If you Quit a job you say why.
    If you Quit a job that involves representing well over half a million people you had BETTER say why you abandoned them.
    Palin simply couldn't or didn't want too. She babbled and fumbled her way through an embarrassing farce of a press conference that was as big a shock to the GOP as it was to everyone else.
    It wasn't co-ordinated, planned or carefully thought out. It was a chaotic hastily cobbled together mess that told everyone who Voted Palin for Governor that they could go fuck themselves as she has other more important ideas and moneymaking schemes or is trying to flee an upcoming massive scandal.
    So in the absence of any hard facts speculation will run rife. You can hardly have objectivity in a vacuum.
    And that's entirely down to Palin. She can blame no-one else but herself for not managing to speak plainly and coherently with a simple reason why she quit.
    In this she is as culpable as Sanford who kept rambling on like a complete nutbag about his "romance" long, long after the Republican hierarchy had told him to please shut the fuck up and stop digging.
    A self inflicted wound is a self inflicted wound. Palin Quit and wouldn't say why. That's the story and that's why this will keep going for weeks.

    Wrath4771, about Nixon

    by growltiger

    President Nixon's accomplishments, if one is charitable, can best be described as benign neglect and a self-serving and cynical exercise of realpolitik. So what about those accomplishments you cited?

    Nixon abandoned Kennedy's challenge to pay any price and bear any burden in the defense of liberty. For some I suppose those were just words, but to me they were a stirring reminder of the stakes of the cold war. As for ending the war, the Republic of Vietnam had become an inconvenience and Nixon let it die. That and he undermined American liberties by subverting the albeit naive and sometimes wrong-headed anti-war movement.

    Nixon did not end the draft. He just let it expire despite the objections of his own senior military advisers.

    Nixon ignored Cuba as he focused on either Vietnam or China.

    Well, Nixon did go to China, so give him props for that. But do not confuse respected with admired.

  • No-one is talking about how Palin Quitting the Governorship of Alaska affects the Obama administration. Perhaps in partisan dream-land they are but not in the real world.
    They are all speculating like mad on all the Networks on WHY she quit. And they won't stop. Not today, not next week and certainly not until she or someone else can manage to explain why she Quit.
    Decent minded people will be as baffled as everyone else after that press conference and if you think otherwise you are simply deluding yourself.
    She has a base of extreme right wingers who treat her every pronouncement as the Gospel according to Saint Sarah. But that nutty fringe won't win any Elections and it's why the GOP is trying to distance themselves from her right now with nothing but platitudes and careful fence sitting statements about her departure for the most part.
    Because the Republicanst also don't have a clue why she quit but they clearly fear the worst.
    She was told by those who know what they are talking about in the GOP that returning to Governing and the hard graft of learning Policy would be the best idea if she wanted to come back as a serious Poltical figure for the Republicans.
    She totally ignored them and we see the result.
    She is a loose cannon who loses two votes for every vote she reinforces in the hard core Republican Evangelical base that would never dream of voting Dem under any circumstance anyway.
    Her only future now is as a warm up act for serious GOP Politicians and to rouse the far right base in Conventions or as a female Limbaugh.
    Who knows ? That might be exactly what she wants and gets her the fame and money she clearly craves but she ain't gonna win any Elections for anyone doing that and she will be easily dismissed as a whining Quitter who couldn't handle a real job or the media after this.

  • Come on guys get real.
    That Press Conference was a circus. It was anything but a dignified exit and simply ensured rampant and unflattering speculation for days or weeks to come.
    She could have tried for a dignified short statement along the lines of after discussing it with her family and her supporters in Alaska she had decided to quit and would be spending the 4th with her family after which she would detail the reasons why. Or like most people could have managed, simply say why she quit.
    That's not what happened though. We had a rambling incoherent mess. And even if she did try for dignified it would still have drove the speculation into overtime because anyone willing to quit as a Governor must obviously have a compelling reason to do so that hardly needs days to think up or explain or prepare.
    It would be like Sanford saying he was in Argentina and trying to stall and not say why. Politics 101. You get ahead of the story. But Politics 101 is not Palin's strong suit as the GOP keeps finding out to their cost.

    Rush's platform is thousands of times sturdier than the GOP. Rush knows exactly what he believes, and can explain it far more clearly than any politician. He'd never run for office, since it'd be a major pay cut.
    As for Palin, she's far smarter than Obama, we KNOW for a fact where she was born (so she IS an American citizen, rather than a Kenyan who refuses to release an undoctored birth certificate). Plus she actually held real jobs with responsibility, rather than "community organizer" (aka race-baiting liberal lawyer).

    Hell, I'd rather have W back or Jimmy Carter over Obama the Idiot in Chief.
    If this country is still here in 4 years, and this site is still up (which is probable, since Harry and co are flaming liberals), I'll pop back in here to see all of you people who are jobless, sucking on the government teat, wondering what happened to the country and why did the USA elect an unknown to the White House.

  • If the aim was to make the News all Palin all the time just now then Mission Accomplished.
    But why do it just before the 4th and as the Media are still in Jackson Mania mode ?
    If the aim was to make as big a Media splash as possible you wouldn't do it now.
    I'll be honest, I have no inside line on why she quit and like everyone else I'm fairly baffled. There are many theories sure, but it could be something utterly leftfield for all we know.
    It just doesn't look like a clear plan of any kind and it feeds into the perception of Palin as a loose cannon who has a talent for the strange and unpredictable.
    That might help her if she tries to play herself up as an unconventional figure not beholden to the Republican heirarchy but she is simply raising doubts in the minds of those who matter in the GOP as to her suitability as a reliable votewinning voice for the Republican movement.
    Watch for the reactions of key figures in the Republican Party over the next few days. That will tell you more than the Media speculation will as to what this all means because they will ultimately decide if she has a future in Politics or the Media.
    At the moment I'd say she is heading for a place as a female Limbaugh but after her Press Conference you would have to say she is probably not even ready or capable of doing that. Even FOX would have to place her in intensive training before letting her loose on the airwaves.

I doubt there's been a politician male or female who's ever had to deal with the kind of abuse she's taken in the last year, and the coordinated stream of baseless ethics complaints may have been the last straw and she just couldn't afford to stay on as Governor. Now she can cash some big checks and steal some of Obama's thunder while his hair turns grey and his numbers drop to Bush levels.

    Remember, the Emperor sent the fleet to the far side of Endor to make the Rebels think it was unguarded. Plus, the Super Star Destroyer was there. Didn't they land inside the shield so they wouldn't have to walk across the planet?

    I also wonder how many voters in Alaska will be happy that they voted for a Governor who was only there to promote herself and "cash some big checks".
    Hell, maybe that was in the smallprint of her bumper stickers.
    PALIN FOR GOVERNOR *until she pussies out and quits to cash some big checks.
    There is talk of maybe Federal charges perhaps being readied but that could just be talk. If it's not though she'd best hope her talent for explaining things improves pretty fucking fast.
    Ted Stevens might also have decided that since he was abandoned and made a pariah by the Republican Party it could be payback time and he definitely knows where all the bodies are buried in the Alaskan legislature. Ted could easily finish Palin for good unless he "feels the love" soon.

    OK, this is where the Star Wars Geeks are

    by continentalop

    I got a couple of Star Wars questions that maybe one of you fanboys can answer for me: I tried getting answers in another TB but no luck. Here they are:
    If the Star Wars universe was once a Galactic Republic, why the hell do they still have Royalty like Queen Padme and Princess Liea? I mean, a Republic is a form of government that explicitly doesn't have any royalty or hereditary titles. Shouldn't they be a confederacy, a league or a federation?

    If Storm Troopers are clones of Jenku Fett, the greatest Bounty Hunter of his time, why the hell do they suck in battle? I mean, during the Prequels the Shock Troopers could kill and assassinate Jedis, but in episodes IV-VI they can't hit the broad side of a barn. Are they like the clones from the Simpsons episode with the curse hammock? You know, each generation of clone gets more diluted from the last - is that the reason?

    Why the hell do they let Luke Skywalker keep his name? His Uncle's name is Owen Lars, not Skywalker. I mean, you want to hide the boy from his real father, wouldn't you also change his LAST FUCKING name so he couldn't be found so easily, just in case the guy came back to his old home town? Or do they think so little of Vader's intelligence they never think he'll be able to put "My name is Anakin SKYWALKER, and my stepbrother Owen Lars is raising a kid named Luke SKYWALKER - maybe there is a connection."

    Continentalop, some answers and some theories

    by yackbacker

    Your first question, re: royal titles in the Galactic Republic- this one is easy- each system or planet has their own individual forms of government. All the Galactic Republic requires is that that system send a representative to the Senate on Coruscant. It's basically like the UN.
    As for Stormtroopers being weak sauce in the OT, there are a couple of theories at work here- 1) the over-cloning might degrade the quality of clone you get, 2) Palpatine stopped using the Kaminoans to clone the troops and took his business to a cheaper, quicker facility, 3) Not all Stormtroopers are Jango Fett clones- they could have diversified their sources.
    And finally, the Luke Skywalker thing is a mixed bag. They've always maintained, even in the OT, that Ben hid the twins and kept watch over Luke. I think there's two reasons why they never changed his name- 1) Ben wanted Luke to always know he was a Skywalker so he would eventually follow his destiny to face Vader and take down the Empire 2) when Luke finally emerges, it would be a shot across the bow of Palpatine and Vader, causing a possible rift between the two bad guys (which it did) and 3) George Lucas wanted to keep things as simple as possible from a storytelling POV.

    If you didn't want to read about this...

    by solvseus

    Then why did you click the link? When I don't care about something, I don't read it. It's not that hard. Sure it sucks Supernatural doesn't have a talkback, but it's their site. Republicans should get that, freedom for a business to do whatever it wants and all. But you don't like the subject, so instead of not reading, you read it, then complain about the fact that it exists, rather than just criticize the contents, which is really what you don't like.

    Here's why we don't like her for those who still don't get it. Has nothing to do with her being a woman, even a conservative woman. Plenty of those, but the only other one that gets this kind of vitriol also brings it on herself, though calling her Mann Coulter is childish and ignores the many, many legitimate complaints against her. Just as those who are being sexist against Palin. We don't need that. But notice it isn't "the liberal media" saying that, nor any elected politician. It's just some talkbackers who also talk smack about celebrities too. Unlike with the GOP, Palin included, who have their leaders and political talking heads calling Dems all sorts of names - socialist, communist, marxist, fascist, and other things (most of which simply prove you lot don't know what those words mean) - then whine when they're criticized, even when it hits the nail right on it's hypocritical head. No one made fun of her disabled child, and while the Letterman jokes were mean, they were pointing out one of her child's hypocrisy, not advocating child rape, which just made her look like she was crying wolf, rather than hurt Dave (helped him actually). Glass jaws the lot of you. Maybe if YOU had some legitimate criticism, you wouldn't need to, but since most of what's wrong with the Dems right now is that they bend over backwards to "compromise" with YOU, I guess it's all you got. And they do bend over for you, as you whine some more about how they're somehow far left when they're actually nowhere close, just so you can spit in their faces and call them more names, and they can still act like they're the minority even though a VAST majority wants them to go further, while a tiny minority support you. Instead, most of the legit criticisms come from the left and moderates who, as the experts have been saying and anyone who knows anything about anything agree with, if anything the Dems aren't doing ENOUGH. But you want the mess you caused to be fixed NOW, even after they tell you over and over it will take time, and your only other idea than saying "no" to everything is more of the same crap that got us into this mess in the first place, because that's going to fix everything *rollseyes*

    Anyway, we don't like Palin because we just put up with 8 years of someone like her. Someone who talks "just like you" and is a downhome, all American, who's wrong about everything all the time, and doesn't know a damn thing, but hypocritically wants to tell US how to live our lives. Because even though the Dems suck, they're better than the GOP right now, who had their chance and ruined everything, and now can't do anything but whine about it. The party of personal responsibility blaming everyone else for their failings. Criticizing everyone else, but unable to be criticized themselves without crying about it. Who talk about how bad a PC culture is, unless they want to cry sexism. Who hide behind the 1st Amendment, unless someone uses it to talk about them. Who do everything wrong, then blame the people trying to fix their mess for their own failed ideology. An ideology people like Palin put above fact and reason. Ignoring evidence to spin reality with mindless, empty rhetoric and colloquialisms that at the end of the day don't do anything but rile their base. Maybe, just maybe, people hate her because she represents everything that's wrong with this country, especially the dumbing down part. Just like Bush. We've had enough of that thankyouverymuch. That's why we're pissed when Obama and the Dems do it too, which they are, which *duh* look around you, we have been criticizing! You lot are the partisan hacks who defended Bush and the GOP (still bitching about investigations that aren't even happening, guess it's only ok when it's a Dem in charge, then you can investigate everything, finally nailing him for cheating... while most of yours are cheating too), calling us the unpatriotic troop/America haters when we're only pointing out how much you suck, all the damage you're doing, even when it's an over 2/3 majority of us saying it. Acting like you're still the moral majority. You aren't. You're the minority, and you're wrong, but at least we're not telling you to shut up, leave the country, or calling you traitors.

    You're still being treated like you have a legitimate side, even in some cases where their shouldn't be "sides", unless it's right or wrong (and you're still wrong). We tried it your way, it sucked. You ignored science, ignored warnings that turned out to be correct, ignored the few of the pathetic "opposition" that barely opposed you, that are still kowtowing to you, that you now bitch don't let you to the table you never let them come to unless they acquiesced (which they did, so you could also say "see, the Dems do it too" even though the party of no responsibility is still responsible, seeing as how you planned and executed it - Iraq, ironically named Patriot Act, deregulation) even though they do nothing but, even when they should just be ignoring you, and you don't support them back anyway or even vote on those same bills you added all that crap too and took all the good out of, that they let you, then you blame them when the watered down crap doesn't work. All because the Dems want to reach out to people like Palin, who wouldn't support them if they gave people like her money. Which in some cases, they actually are. But no, our deficit is going up, which was fine when the Bush's and Reagan were doing it and we were getting nothing but screwed for it, but is horrible when Obama wants to do it to clean up the mess you took years to create. So he cuts back to be "bipartisan", so it takes longer or may even fail. Just so you can say you told us so, though still not seeing any solutions from you or Palin, other than the same crap that got us into it, and distractions about comedians and ethics charges, some of which are true. If that's all you have, can you blame us for treating her like the Heidi and Spencer of the political world? The world is collapsing after you lot practically destroyed it, and you want to put an "intellectually incurious" know nothing puppet bobble-head in a tight skirt (not a sexist comment, just pointing out that she uses her sexuality to cover for her shortcomings) in charge? Especially someone who would rather attack others than come up with solutions, then whine because she gets attacked, even when those attacks are based on legitimate reasons. Like her real ethics problems (the house and why Wasilla now has a $20 million debt). Family values my butt.

    One only needs to look at that rambling, incoherent speech where she didn't say anything about WHY she's doing this to see she isn't the best you have, to say the least, which is why so many are giving so much slack to Obama when comparing him to the opposition, even though we are getting frustrated with him and the spineless Dems, just not for why you lot seem to think.

    by solvseus

    Then why did you click the link? When I don't care about something, I don't read it. It's not that hard. Sure it sucks Supernatural doesn't have a talkback, but it's their site. Republicans should get that, freedom for a business to do whatever it wants and all. But you don't like the subject, so instead of not reading, you read it, then complain about the fact that it exists, rather than just criticize the contents, which is really what you don't like.

    Here's why we don't like her for those who still don't get it. Has nothing to do with her being a woman, even a conservative woman. Plenty of those, but the only other one that gets this kind of vitriol also brings it on herself, though calling her Mann Coulter is childish and ignores the many, many legitimate complaints against her. Just as those who are being sexist against Palin. We don't need that. But notice it isn't "the liberal media" saying that, nor any elected politician. It's just some talkbackers who also talk smack about celebrities too. Unlike with the GOP, Palin included, who have their leaders and political talking heads calling Dems all sorts of names - socialist, communist, marxist, fascist, and other things (most of which simply prove you lot don't know what those words mean) - then whine when they're criticized, even when it hits the nail right on it's hypocritical head. No one made fun of her disabled child, and while the Letterman jokes were mean, they were pointing out one of her child's hypocrisy, not advocating child rape, which just made her look like she was crying wolf, rather than hurt Dave (helped him actually). Glass jaws the lot of you. Maybe if YOU had some legitimate criticism, you wouldn't need to, but since most of what's wrong with the Dems right now is that they bend over backwards to "compromise" with YOU, I guess it's all you got. And they do bend over for you, as you whine some more about how they're somehow far left when they're actually nowhere close, just so you can spit in their faces and call them more names, and they can still act like they're the minority even though a VAST majority wants them to go further, while a tiny minority support you. Instead, most of the legit criticisms come from the left and moderates who, as the experts have been saying and anyone who knows anything about anything agree with, if anything the Dems aren't doing ENOUGH. But you want the mess you caused to be fixed NOW, even after they tell you over and over it will take time, and your only other idea than saying "no" to everything is more of the same crap that got us into this mess in the first place, because that's going to fix everything *rollseyes*

    Anyway, we don't like Palin because we just put up with 8 years of someone like her. Someone who talks "just like you" and is a downhome, all American, who's wrong about everything all the time, and doesn't know a damn thing, but hypocritically wants to tell US how to live our lives. Because even though the Dems suck, they're better than the GOP right now, who had their chance and ruined everything, and now can't do anything but whine about it. The party of personal responsibility blaming everyone else for their failings. Criticizing everyone else, but unable to be criticized themselves without crying about it. Who talk about how bad a PC culture is, unless they want to cry sexism. Who hide behind the 1st Amendment, unless someone uses it to talk about them. Who do everything wrong, then blame the people trying to fix their mess for their own failed ideology. An ideology people like Palin put above fact and reason. Ignoring evidence to spin reality with mindless, empty rhetoric and colloquialisms that at the end of the day don't do anything but rile their base. Maybe, just maybe, people hate her because she represents everything that's wrong with this country, especially the dumbing down part. Just like Bush. We've had enough of that thankyouverymuch. That's why we're pissed when Obama and the Dems do it too, which they are, which *duh* look around you, we have been criticizing! You lot are the partisan hacks who defended Bush and the GOP (still bitching about investigations that aren't even happening, guess it's only ok when it's a Dem in charge, then you can investigate everything, finally nailing him for cheating... while most of yours are cheating too), calling us the unpatriotic troop/America haters when we're only pointing out how much you suck, all the damage you're doing, even when it's an over 2/3 majority of us saying it. Acting like you're still the moral majority. You aren't. You're the minority, and you're wrong, but at least we're not telling you to shut up, leave the country, or calling you traitors.

    You're still being treated like you have a legitimate side, even in some cases where their shouldn't be "sides", unless it's right or wrong (and you're still wrong). We tried it your way, it sucked. You ignored science, ignored warnings that turned out to be correct, ignored the few of the pathetic "opposition" that barely opposed you, that are still kowtowing to you, that you now bitch don't let you to the table you never let them come to unless they acquiesced (which they did, so you could also say "see, the Dems do it too" even though the party of no responsibility is still responsible, seeing as how you planned and executed it - Iraq, ironically named Patriot Act, deregulation) even though they do nothing but, even when they should just be ignoring you, and you don't support them back anyway or even vote on those same bills you added all that crap too and took all the good out of, that they let you, then you blame them when the watered down crap doesn't work.

    Ah well, close enough

    by solvseus

    Sorry for the length, least I actually say something in my rambles.

    But AyatollahSexyBack, I disagree. The GOP is hurting themselves. God has nothing to do with it. They seem to think it's only liberals who don't like them, but they need to look more closely at polls. Again, people are disappointed with Obama and the Dems when they don't do ENOUGH and try to "compromise", but they absolutely HATE the far right, and everything they've done and want to continue to do. I guess when you're that far to the right, everything is left.

    To wallyman, the Rezko thing has long since been disproved. Same with his tenuous links to Ayers. Or the ridiculousness claiming he isn't American. Plenty to dislike about the guy legitimately, those things are just desperate, and completely untrue. As I noted though, you can't get him on the bad stuff I guess because most of it you guys were fine with Bush doing.

    Palin's link to those who helped build her house though? That's a story. Same company who built that unneeded hockey rink that put her home town into debt when it did have a surplus before she became mayor, though partially thanks to her rush job screw up causing legal issues. Fiscal conservatism and all, helped by what we thought was her just doing something dumb because she put ideology over facts, and research. But apparently it might have been to help her contractor friends. Who stood to gain even more by her becoming Gov.

    When a Dem does it (see Blago), yes, they deserve to go down too. Not all of us are partisan hacks. Some of us have a problem whoever the person is doing such things. If Obama does it too, he'd be just as wrong. If Bush (or Palin) ever did something right, they'd get the credit. Wrong, they should also get the credit, as blame.

    Why is that so hard for some of you to understand?

    The only ones talking about her disabled child are you guys and her. Just more of that warped reality you guys have where someone can just say whatever they want and it becomes truth, even when based on nothing. And even if some talkbacker said something, how does that equal everyone the way you want to make it seem it is? It's different when the right's leaders and major media talking heads say some of these things and repeat them, but I have yet to see the left do that. Honestly I have yet to see them do anything at this point, but that's a moot point. Kinda like yours. Which makes no sense. Yes, people hate her because SHE doesn't exactly seem like the brightest bulb, and like an idiot boss who doesn't have any idea what they're doing, but somehow got ahead enough to tell you what to do, then blames you when things go wrong. No, we're not tolerant of that. Nor her intolerance. I think you also need to look up what tolerance means, because I do not think it means what you think it means. Maybe you haven't been paying attention to the legitimate criticism. Or the legitimate criticism of Obama and the Dems. Which is not coming from the right. You know what's coming from the right (besides scandal that unlike the Dems with Blago, Edwards, and Spitzer who actually hold theirs accountable you lot keep defending)? Name calling. Lots of -ists. Plenty of hate of Sarah Palin is legit. No, not all, I admit. But from the establishment, yes. From the GOP too. You know she sucks too. Everyone knows it. Just admit it already.

"Oh look, she forgot to add the word "prayer" to her statement- oh wait, she fixed it! She's a real American!" That's the most telling sign- she had to repeat something she'd already said and added the word "prayer" to appeal to all the religious folks. So much for being a "maverick".

Imagine of the liberals were backing a bimbo-cheerleader Stepford Wife who constantly says things that would make Dan Quayle blush, who's husband was a professional skidoo racer, who pretended to be pregnant for several months, and even *staged a fake public water-breaking* to cover up her teenage daughter's pregnancy, who is now receeding from the public eye just as her *even younger* teenage daughter appears to also be pregnant. Imagine that, and what you're reaction, and opinion of this person, and the people supporting her would be. And for the record, if Willow Palin's kid also comes out a few lettuces short of an allotment, I think at that point the question of Todd Palin's involvement should start to make the transition from a dark thought everyone has in the back of their minds better left unspoken, to a DNA test subpoena.

    PALIN IS THREATENING TO SUE ANYONE WHO TALKS SHIT ABOUT HER...

    by charlesthomasmathews1978

    Ratcheting up her offensive against the news media, Gov. Sarah Palin’s attorney threatened Saturday to sue mainstream news organizations if they publish “defamatory” stories relating to whether Palin is under federal investigation.

    In an extraordinary four-page letter, Alaska-based attorney Thomas Van Flein warns of severe consequences should speculation that until now has largely been confined to blogs about whether Palin embezzled funds in the construction of a Wasilla, Alaska, sports arena find its way into print.

    “This is to provide notice to Ms. Moore, and those who re-publish the defamation, such as Huffington Post, MSNBC, the New York Times and The Washington Post, that the Palins will not allow them to propagate defamatory material without answering to this in a court of law,” Van Flein warned, citing Alaska liberal blogger Shannyn Moore. http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0709/24521.html#ixzz0KMqAULUQ&C What was the old saying? Where there's smoke there's fire. This stupid cunt thinks that she can actually bully the media into silence and I'm betting that there is something to these reports otherwise she wouldn't have quit nor would she be making toothless threats.

    Obama quadruples the Federal deficit during a major recession, guaranteeing tax increases and high taxes for at least a generation, but Palin is a dumb bitch.

    • I can't find one respected foreign policy expert who disagrees with Obama on his tactic with Iran - Brzezinski, Kissinger, Former Bush Undersecretary of State Nick Burn, etc. George Will even calls the Right-Wings attacks on Obama foolish. Iran has a long history and memory of America interfering with their internal matters - Shah of Iran anyone? So I can imagine how well it would go over and what a tool it would be for the Theocrats if Obama suddenly spoke up for the pro-Democracy protesters. It would be easy to label them American dupes after that.
    • It is not just America that is reacting to the Honduras coup; it is also the Organization of the American States, Canada and many Latin American states, including conservative Mexico and socialist state Venezuela, all condemning the coup. At least 10 Latin American countries have pulled there ambassadors in protest and several others have halted business with them for 48 hours in protest, All of North and South America are reacting to how a neighbor, someone they all share normal relations with, is acting.
    • To quote what Mideast Peace Envoy George Mitchell said in 2003, "Opposition to the government of Israel's policies and practices regarding settlements…has been consistent through the Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton and Bush administrations; just as consistent has been the continued settlement activity by the Israeli government." Obama is pushing the same policy that all 5 past presidents have believed in – that expanding Jewish settlements is one of the obstacles to the piece process.
    • When a nation is in as financial problems as we are, drastic steps have to be taken. I wonder did you complain this much with the Republicans basically controlled three branches of government for 8 years and got us in this mess? Obviously cutting taxes doesn't always work, especially when we are in this much debt. I know everyone would love to cut cost and cut taxes, but there is a problem, during a recession people stop spending. You lower taxes and that money isn't going to get spent, so it doesn't help us get out of our hole. Which leads us to the next point:
    • As much as I prefer straight up capitalism, Keynesian economics have been shown to work in helping escape a recession or depression. For everyone who says it was WWII and not the New Deal that got us out of the Great Depression, I only say what was WWII economically but the biggest government stimulus package ever?
    • As for Palin being dumb. Yes she is. Very dumb.

    Eveelcapitalist, LET ME COUNTER POINT YOUR BULLSHIT….

    by charlesthomasmathews1978

    Obama can’t side with the Iranian protesters because if he does the clerics and Ahmadinejad will use it as anti-US propaganda recalling the 1953 coup where the CIA, under orders from REPUBLICAN President Dwight D. Eisenhower, and Britain’s MI-6 deposed of Iran’s democratically elected leader and installed the Shah, a dictator who ruled as a puppet of the USA and Britain for 26 years until the 1979 Iranian revolution. Of course Obama will speak negatively of the Honduras coup as it is never a good idea to let the military of any government take over and displace democratically elected representatives but being that you are a right wing scumbag I just bet you’re praying for such a thing to happen in the US so eat shit you anti-democratic lowlife and fuck off back to watching Fake News where Glenn Beck is advocating the deaths of American’s so that the Republican party can regain power Obama has rightfully came down on Israel as they have waged decades of genocidal extremism against the Palestinian people while stealing land from people who had been there for centuries. So I guess you’ll just go with the old playbook of calling me an anti-semite not to mention that you typically allude to Obama being a closeted Muslim who hates Jews not to mention your assertions that he isn’t even a US citizen while also being a Dijon mustard loving socialist elitist. You are a moron. Obama has to spend in order to get your country out of the fucking hole that YOU created by voting Republican’s into power who cut taxes for the rich while increasing military spending from 300 billion a year Pre-9/11 to 900 billion in 2009 all to protect you from people with box cutters. That’s not even including the 750 billion that Bushco. just gave to their Wall Street benefactors, with absolutely NO oversight, to cover their gambling losses that they were only able to perpetuate because of Wall Street deregulation starting with the removal of the Glass-Stegal Act. (created after the Great Depression which was also caused by Republicans) which Bill Clinton was FORCED to sign because Republican’s had a VETO PROOF MAJORITY. I’m sure you don’t remember, or Fake News hasn’t told you, that it was Bill Clintons $496 billion 1993 stimulus package (which passed without a SINGLE Republican vote) that created the economic upswing that lasted until George W. Bush stole the Presidency and turned a 290 billion dollar surplus into a 3 trillion dollar deficit by cutting taxes during a time of war. Got that dipshit? But then you’re just another fucking moron that hates taxes and will vote for anyone that promises to cut them for you while voting against your best interests. Are you Joe the Plumber? Also, dickless, who do you think studies bees? Who watches children (besides yourself through a chainlink fence at a schoolyard)? Who makes that Rum? People do, that’s who you fucking knob and those people will use that money they make to pay for good and services which will, in turn, provide jobs for the people who provide those good and services. That’s how an economy works you fucking retard. It can’t be run on WAR and TAX CUTS like you’ve been brainwashed into believing, so, fuck you. Idiot. P.S. Palin is a dumb bitch because she was a beauty queen who went to 6 colleges in 6 years to learn how to read sportscores. She conned her way into becoming mayor of a town with a population of 7,000 that had a 4 million dollar surplus and in 6 years turned that into a 22 million dollar deficit. She became Governor because no one wanted the guy she was running against to win and they would have just as sooner elected a moose against the guy. She’s a dumb bitch because she goes on national television, claiming that Obama is a socialist when she took money from the oil companies and distributed it too the people of Alaska which, in case you don’t know, is SOCIALISM but I don’t expect you or that dumb bitch to understand that. She’s also a dumb bitch because she cut funding to rape victims, forcing them to pay for their own rape kits. She’s a dumb bitch because she preached abstinence only education which did fuck all good for her 17 year old daughter who got knocked up by porking a “fucking redneck”. She’s a dumb bitch because she took David Letterman’s joke about her daughter and twisted it into a claim that Letterman was advocating underage sex between her 14 year old daughter and A-rod when she knows full and fucking well that he was referring to her 17, now 18 year old unwed daughter. She’s a dumb bitch because her claims that Letterman is a pervert don’t have much impact since she didn’t charge Levi Johnson, the father of her daughter Bristol’s baby, with statutory rape since she was only 17 and he was older . She’s a dumb bitch for resigning her Governorship 17 months from the end of her first term without explaination possibly because of one of two reasons, 1# she is about to be charged with a Federal crime because of corruption or 2# she’s such a dumb bitch who’s decided that Alaska can go fuck itself while she starts running for 2012 only eight months after the last Presidential election which she helped lose for John McCain because of the innumeral times she proved herself to be a dumb bitch, “in what respect CharlesThomasMathews1978 *wink*”.

    by nudeandaroused

    I am not a Republican. I am not a Democrat. I do remember the days when the Republicans, though conservative, had a more reasoned look upon the world. Gerald Ford, Bush 41, even Nixon, or, God help me, Reagan. Wherever Reagan is, I am sure he is rolling in his grave at the spectacle that is Palin. A wink of an eye! That, to date, is her contribution to the political system. A wink! What are we coming to? There are Republicans out there.

    Yes, John McCain is a great man. I disagree with him on just about everything. He is hero and put up with so much torture and violence, that I don't think the country will ever appreciate it. And we are putting Palin on level with McCain? Ahead of Palenty, or, my favorite, Crist? Really?

    First, if you read enough you will discover the ONLY independent survey done BEFORE the Iran vote had A at a two to one lead over M. Which is how the vote broke down and a damn near repeat of the last election stats. You will find that A had a vast following with the rurals and poor.
    Odds are that most of the Iran hype, like the Iraqi's and incubators, was psyop by CIA and Mossad. US already budgeted hundreds of millions for the overthrow of Iran.
    Obama's spending is to save banks/big business and Goldman Sachs. So far it has been totally ineffective. The financial issue is NOT just Republicans, it goes further back. There is not enough time or space to detail the history. But you oversimplified for the sake of your argument.
    For REAL economic news read these. To the best of my knowledge they are DEMOCRATIC voters or Independents leaning Nader.

    Finally you should read what both Lincoln and Eiesenhower had to say about Corporations and Military Industrial Complex. Maybe even Matt Tiabbi on how Goldman Sachs engineered every crash since the Depression.
    "I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. . . . corporations have been enthroned and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed."
    -- U.S. President Abraham Lincoln, Nov. 21, 1864
    (letter to Col. William F. Elkins)
    In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.
    Dwight D. Eisenhower
    You do no one any favors by simplifying the issue as an US vs Them argument. The fact there is only them with no us anymore. Big money rules the day and we the people are fucked. It isn't Republican or Democrat it is BOTH that are the problem. That is why third party voices of reason like Ralph Nader get demonized. The more angry people are the easier they are to manipulate.

    That is incorrect.Factually the mess started way back when. Take the time and examine all the depressions in US history, especially those before the 29 collapse.
    Each has been replaced with a bubble. the WW2 bubble saved us from the 29 collapse.
    Greenspan is the architect of todays bubble collapse. That and the repeal of Glass Steagell. Sadly both of those happened under Clinton.

    Many mourn the loss of Palin

    by inactionman

    AP July 4, 2009 - America's enemies around the world issued a joint statement expressing their profound sadness at the resignation of Sarah Palin. President Ahmadinajad of Iran, Hugo Chavez, the Castro Brothers, President Medvedev of Russia, Kim Jong Il and Osama Bin Laden all singed onto the statement.

    Bin Laden issued a video tape which aired on Al Jazira stating "I am very worried that this will hurt her chances of becoming President. This Obama guy is really hard to get the Arab street worked up about. I was really hoping we would get another world class idiot back in the White House as soon as possible. The success of Al Quida is based upon having a loose cannon moron in the White House. You know the kind of imbecile who shoots off their mouth and starts unprovoked wars. Obama is an absolute failure in this regard."

    The nations comedians are also said to be greatly disappointed. Jon Stewart of the Daily Show said "During the Bush years I hardly worked at all. We tape the show at five p.m. I used to come into work at about 4:45 play a video tape of whatever Bush said that day , mug for the camera and collect a big paycheck. Now me and the writers are pulling all-nighters trying to find something funny about the President.

    However, the majority of Americans seemed to be delighted by Palin's departure celebrating for an extended three day weekend with parties, parades and fireworks demonstrations.

    The year is 1999. Clintons last year. What pressure could have been applied?

    http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/wallstreet/weill/demise.html
    On Oct. 21, with the House-Senate conference committee deadlocked after marathon negotiations, the main sticking point is partisan bickering over the bill's effect on the Community Reinvestment Act, which sets rules for lending to poor communities. Sandy Weill calls President Clinton in the evening to try to break the deadlock after Senator Phil Gramm, chairman of the Banking Committee, warned Citigroup lobbyist Roger Levy that Weill has to get White House moving on the bill or he would shut down the House-Senate conference. Serious negotiations resume, and a deal is announced at 2:45 a.m. on Oct. 22. Whether Weill made any difference in precipitating a deal is unclear.

    On Oct. 22, Weill and John Reed issue a statement congratulating Congress and President Clinton, including 19 administration officials and lawmakers by name. The House and Senate approve a final version of the bill on Nov. 4, and Clinton signs it into law later that month.

    Just days after the administration (including the Treasury Department) agrees to support the repeal, Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin, the former co-chairman of a major Wall Street investment bank, Goldman Sachs, raises eyebrows by accepting a top job at Citigroup as Weill's chief lieutenant. The previous year, Weill had called Secretary Rubin to give him advance notice of the upcoming merger announcement. When Weill told Rubin he had some important news, the secretary reportedly quipped, "You're buying the government
    http://thestrangedeathofliberalamerica.com/bill-clinton-glass-steagall-and-the-current-financial-and-mortgage-crisis-part-two-of-an-indepth-investigative-report.html
    n the background of the go-go economy, the feeling grew among some economists and the financial community that Glass-Steagall hampered America’s financial competitiveness. Among the many voices favoring this was Alan Greenspan along with former Goldman Sachs partner Robert Rubin, Bill Clinton’s Treasury Secretary. In a 1995 speech and testimony to Congress Rubin signaled the Clinton Administration was ready to repeal Glass-Steagall:
    “The banking industry is fundamentally different from what it was two decades ago, let alone in 1933.” He said the industry has been transformed into a global business of facilitating capital formation through diverse new products, services and markets. “U.S. banks generally engage in a broader range of securities activities abroad than is permitted domestically,” said the Treasury secretary. “Even domestically, the separation of investment banking and commercial banking envisioned by Glass-Steagall has eroded significantly.”
    Anyone who thinks the repeal of Glass-Steagall was forced on an unwilling Bill Clinton need only read Rubin’s testimony.

    by evilwizardglick

    I don't know the intent. All I do kn ow is racism is overplayed.
    Nader said Obama was tailoring his argument for white people. People jumped on him for being a racist.
    Yet a few days earlier BLACK author and activist Ishmael Reed said the EXACT SAME THING.
    His opinion was never addressed nor mentioned.
    I'm tired of racism and all the supposedly subtle clues as to what intent is.

    HOW ABOUT COMPARING MICHELLE OBAMA TO A GORILLA?

    by ayatollahsexyback

    South Carolina GOPer Apologizes For Calling Michelle Obama A Gorilla -- And Says She Started It


    By Eric Kleefeld - June 15, 2009, 12:10PM

    Rusty DePass, a prominent South Carolina Republican activist, is now apologizing for making a racist joke about Michelle Obama, and taken down the Facebook page where he made it -- though he does make sure to shift the blame and say that Michelle started it.


    DePass commented on a story about a gorilla escaping from a local zoo: "I'm sure it's just one of Michelle's ancestors - probably harmless."


    "I am as sorry as I can be if I offended anyone," said DePass. "The comment was clearly in jest."

    But, he said, "The comment was hers, not mine," referring to Michelle having said that man has descended from apes. The New York Daily News says they could find no such comment from Michelle -- but even if they could, it's not like that would make it any better.


    It's worth noting that Michelle's ancestors came from South Carolina. So why did they leave, again?

    US racism is different from the rest of the world. Here it is people of color.
    English tend to be racist against the Irish. Most Europeans against "gypsies".
    Even Nations against each other. I recall Ukranians addressed as Black because of their hair. Poles tend to be despised.
    I do feel there are genetic, Biological and possibly cultural traits existing within "race". many of those traits are used as derogatory stereotypes to attack others.

    As other pointed out, there was a Republican majority (and it was veto proof) suggesting that a fair amount of Republicans supported it.
    Do I only blame Republicans for starting these economic policies? Hell no. Obviously there were many democrats who were the architects of this bad policy as well.
    I do, however, put the blame on the Republicans for letting it get out of hand and becoming a disaster. Bush and the Republicans had 8 years to rectify the situation and did nothing but actually exasperate it.
    It is the difference between leaders (FDR, Reagan, Clinton) and managers. If you are in the jungle and you have a guide leading the way with the machete, every so often he has to climb a tree to see if we are on the right path. If not, he has to correct it to make sure we keep on our way. That is leadership.
    But if he climbs up, sees we are off but keeps us on the same path because he thinks "hey, we are making such good progress and I don't want to change the plan" or can't even recognize we are lost, that isn't leadership, that is a manager.
    Bush and the Republican party for 8 years weren't leaders when it came to the economy, they were managers. Clinton might have steered us in the wrong direction, but Bush kept driving that way for 8 years.

    No really, It was something that some writers added in the late 80s. Before that she was just a failed actress - good looking but not a stunning knock-out like Cindy Crawford.
    I actually think the casting of Snaggletooth was one of the better ideas. I looked at it as rectifying a bad decision that was made in the comics.

    You'll see that yes Obama won the election but McCain and Palin did just fine. You guys need to get over your shortsighted views that your one itsy bitsy political view is the majority view, or that it's the right view, just because it's yours. The reason this country gets so fucked up at election time is because its own citizens make ridiculous generalizations like "republicans are nazis without cool gadgets", which shows how little you are able to comprehend of the complexities of the issues at hand, and at the diversity of opinions people have about how the country should be run, yet forced by all intents and purposes to pick between two candidates, each election, who couldn't begin to represent everyone in their "party" or the nation as a whole.

    Either learn to have a more mature understanding of your fellow man or die lonely and angry and afriad because you hate fifty percent of your neighbors.

    No, it is part of her character. But she wasn't super-model hot until sometime in the late 80s, just as the Penguins real name wasn't revealed to be Oswald Cobblepot until 1980 or 81 (about 40 years after he appeared) and I think both ideas basically ruined those characters. The Penguin has never been taken seriously ever since his origin of mothered boy with the worst villain name ever was revealed, and MJ's modeling career made Spider-Man change from a tale about a Super-Hero with the same personal problems as you and me (money, bills, dating, work concerns) into a bad version of Model Inc. and Melrose Place.
    Comic books are always making bad ideas for character development (Wolverine anyone) and many times the best thing for movies to do is to ignore those bad ideas. I mean, no one is complaining that Spider-Man's parents in the movies aren't revealed to be two dead spies (which in the comics they are, another bad idea that is best to just ignore).
    Plus, if I remember right after the first movie everyone was going nuts about how hot Durnst was when she was kissing Spider-Man in the rain. I remember reading TBs and Forums about guys saying she was "freakin' hot." Personally, I think she is the right level of attractiveness - someone who was treated like a star in high school and college but when she tried to break into show business realizes she is one-in-a-hundred (which is how the character was depicted in the 70s and early 80s).

    That is true about people slandering the Republicans, but I think it easily goes both ways. Liberals and Democrats have been called "Pussies", "Commies", "Fascist" (how the fuck that works I don't know), "Chickens", "Defeatocrats", and "Traitors." I mean, you hear how Obama is a "Muslim", "Not American", "The Anti-Christ", etc.
    As an Independent who admits he voted for Obama I have to say I hear more negative comments about Obama coming from the Right-Wing commentators and shows than I did about Bush from the Left-Wing. Of course, there really aren't that many left-wing shows on TV or radio (I think they prefer to blog and put out Independent newspapers) but you get my point.

    You are right. This is the shit I'm talking about, it's ripping the country apart. I don't care what side does it, its wrong. Yes, that's how you win an election, by slamming the other guy. Two wrongs do not make a right.

    As far as you never hearing negative stuff against Bush, I wil repsectfully say that may be your bias coming out. Bush was probably one of the most hated and despised presidents the media ever covered, and "regular" people like the talk-backers regularly refer to him as retarded or learning disabled. Now they are transferring that onto Palin. And the next famous republican, years down the road, will be called stupid, retarded, you name it.

    I personally think that Obama is an intelligent man and he probably has the country's best interest at heart but I disagree with his POLICIES, and I disagree with his political philosophy. That doesn't mean I have a problem with HIM as an individual.

    Is having an atitude like that really so hard to cultivate? To act like a decent human being and not slander an entire group of people because they don't see things the way you do? Apparently so.

    Well thanks for proving you can't hold an intelligent conversation without going to insults. No, I didn't not read your earlier post - I try to read everything but I somehow missed that one. It does happen once in awhile you know. Maybe you should of mentioned those links you had in an earlier post in your reply.
    Plus I could call you out for not reading - I mentioned in several post that I am not a Democrat, which you imply, I am an Independent. Yes, I voted for Clinton once, but I also could always spot flaws in the man. However, despite being critical of Clinton, can point out several good things about his Presidency.
    Despite being a supporter of big business, under his time at the helm America had:
    "The Clinton years were unquestionably a time of progress, especially on the economy…Clinton's 1992 slogan, 'Putting people first,' and his stress on 'the economy, stupid,' pitched an optimistic if still gritty populism at a middle class that had suffered under Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush…By the end of the Clinton presidency, the numbers were uniformly impressive. Besides the record-high surpluses and the record-low poverty rates, the economy could boast the longest economic expansion in history; the lowest unemployment since the early 1970s; and the lowest poverty rates for single mothers, black Americans, and the aged." - David Greenberg, a professor of history and media studies at Rutgers University
    Under the Clinton Presidency the following happened:
    Average economic growth of 4.0 percent per year, compared to average growth of 2.8 percent during the previous years. The economy grew for 116 consecutive months, the most in history.
    Creation of more than 22.5 million jobs—the most jobs ever created under a single administration, and more than were created in the previous 12 years. Of the total new jobs, 20.7 million, or 92 percent, were in the private sector.
    Economic gains spurred an increase in family incomes for all Americans. Since 1993, real median family income increased by $6,338, from $42,612 in 1993 to $48,950 in 1999 (in 1999 dollars).
    Overall unemployment dropped to the lowest level in more than 30 years, down from 6.9 percent in 1993 to just 4.0 percent in January 2001. The unemployment rate was below 5 percent for 40 consecutive months. Unemployment for African Americans fell from 14.2 percent in 1992 to 7.3 percent in 2000, the lowest rate on record. Unemployment for Hispanics fell from 11.8 percent in October 1992 to 5.0 percent in 2000, also the lowest rate on record.
    Inflation dropped to its lowest rate since the Kennedy Administration, averaging 2.5 percent, and fell from 4.7 percent during the previous administration.
    The homeownership rate reached 67.7 percent near the end of the Clinton administration, the highest rate on record. In contrast, the homeownership rate fell from 65.6 percent in the first quarter of 1981 to 63.7 percent in the first quarter of 1993.
    The poverty rate also declined from 15.1 percent in 1993 to 11.8 percent in 1999, the largest six-year drop in poverty in nearly 30 years. This left 7 million fewer people in poverty than there were in 1993.
    The surplus in fiscal year 2000 was $237 billion—the third consecutive surplus and the largest surplus ever.
    Clinton worked with the Republican-led Congress to enact welfare reform. As a result, welfare rolls dropped dramatically and were the lowest since 1969. Between January 1993 and September 1999, the number of welfare recipients dropped by 7.5 million (a 53 percent decline) to 6.6 million. In comparison, between 1981-1992, the number of welfare recipients increased by 2.5 million (a 22 percent increase) to 13.6 million people.
    Now you could argue how much of this was caused by Clinton and how much of it was actually a problem he left for Bush - that is a legitimate debate. In fact there are many things I can list as problems with Clinton’s Economic policies (and yes, I do list Greenspan as one of the architects of our current recession), but to lump Clinton with Bush or to say he is worse is just disingenuous. As I said before, Bush and the Republicans had ample time to rectify any problem with Clinton’s policies – they were too thrilled to live off of the boon and afraid of looking bad. It is the difference between leadership and management, as I said earlier. If Clinton’s policies were leading us down a wrong path, Bush should have been a leader and said “we got to change this.” And I do believe 8 years is plenty of time for a nation to avoid any problems left by a previous administration.
    And if you do reply, please try to be a little more respectful. Notice I don’t insult you.

    The key to this whole thing is Palin's ability to draw attention and spotlight everything the Obama administration is doing wrong. The more you douchebags attack this woman and her family, the more sexual violence you suggest, the more decent-minded people feel protective of her and give her a listen. She'll be an effective spokesperson against the Dems in whatever capacity she chooses--tv, radio, politics, whatever. I'm going to enjoy watching this unfold.

    Dakota Is 16

    by media messiah

    She reminds me of a girl I knew when I was 20. Nothing ever happened, but we fell for each other and I only learned months later what her real age was. She was an amazing girl. I miss her, but she has gone on to become a very successful woman, working on Seth Green's show, the one with the stop motion dolls...and she has done a film, or two.

    Yes, no one cares what Herc says, which is why this thread is so small and no one here is talking about it...

    And check again to see who is in the itsy-bitsy minority. Actually, according to most polls on some of the major subjects - like healthcare - a VAST majority actually want the Dems to move further LEFT, and to stop kowtowing to the tiny minority you lot now actually are. What is it, like, 20% now? Maybe if you'd stop letting your crazies run your party, people who said such stupid things (like comparing them nazis) would be the marginalized ones. Instead you lot have your leaders doing the name calling, not just some guy on a thread you act like represents the whole party and everyone else who isn't even partisan (or in the case of Palin, some comedian who makes a joke and becomes the representative for the entire rest of the country who doesn't like her) turning off the rest of us.

    The entire other 80% of us don't have to be as partisan as "your side" (who are the ones talking about sides, and who are the ones trying to be bi-partisan and make compromises), it's obvious to us why we don't like her, mostly legitimate reasons, same way we hated Bush, and ARE angry at Obama when he does the same crap.

    Maybe, just maybe, if you guys would stop nominating dumbasses (no one legitimately called McCain a dumbass, they actually seemed disappointed he changed for the worse) we would stop calling them dumb. While you call Dems all sorts of horrible things. Most of them completely untrue. While there are plenty of valid reasons you ignore. Mostly because they're the same types of stupid things your people do.

    Miyamoto_Musashi: I Am Telling The Truth

    by media messiah

    I met her in college. She was going to the same college, and I thought she was at least 18 or 19, I wasn't sure, and never really thought about it until about 8 months after I met her. She and her best friend asked me my age as we were having lunch in the college cafeteria. I said 20, and I asked them their ages...and they laughed, and looked at each other, and then they looked at me and said 16...both of them? I knew friends of theirs, so it all turned out to be true--one that I worked with, he was an intern like me at an educational tv station...and he was 16 or 17, and had gone to highschool with them. She is not famous, BTW, not by industry standards, but I have grown-up around famous people all of my life, yes, they actually exist, and yes they have to know somebody--so I'm not making this up. Anyway, I have had some success myself, not much lately, but I have had it. It's a so what situation really...because as with what happened to Michael Jackson...in the end, it doesn't matter anyway...I only mentioned the story as Dakota reminds me of the girl I once knew. She looks very much like she did back then...and is the same age when we met. It is a very sad memory for me, and yet, a very fond one, as I met a great girl in her, my starcrossed love. The invisible hand of destiny, and her meddling friends messed things up between us, that and my shy nature...and when her ex came back on the scene, I just needed distance...so I quit college. I always thought I'd see her around town again...so it was no big deal, I often saw her every couple of weeks in the past "So why not now?", I imagined at the time. Sadly, I only saw her once, a year later, she had turned into a woman by then. I saw her step from a bus...and again I thought, "I'll run into her again...so, time is on my side", and I never approached her, and she never saw me--still, I had all the time in the world, I thought. Well, so much for that. I never saw her again, and my life has pretty much been a mess ever since. Sometimes broken hearts...never heal.

    Even if any of that about Obama was true, and it really isn't (again, though there are legit complaints), yeah, she still kinda is dumb, and doesn't seem to want to do anything to change that or even the perception of it (again, see that speech).

    Like Bush, who didn't increase the national deficit more than all other President's before him, except he did. For the billionth time, all of the actual experts who've been right about this stuff pretty much the whole time, even while being mocked by talking heads who still have their jobs for some reason, say that, if anything, we aren't doing ENOUGH with the stimulus. Too little, and too slow. But you lot want to do even less. How'd that work out the last 8 years or so?

    Titbag (really?) actually has a point that Obama is leaning too far to the right, and making some of the same mistakes Bush has, though in his case it's more about pleasing people like Palin, no matter how much they'll never like him, and would rather call him names than ever compromise back... but he's still better than Bush (almost anyone would be, except for Palin, who's like Bush with lipstick, and not as bright or as good a speaker.

    NOW STOP YELLING!

    Darth_Inedible

    If Charles Karel said that, he was wrong. Never even heard of him BTW, and I pay attention to politics pretty closely, so I don't really see how that represents a majority, unlike those Palin events, where those shouts seemed to be the norm. Meanwhile, Sam the Not Plumber, who does represent a large segment of the GOP, actually called for a sitting Senator to be hanged. Classy. Wasn't the first time someone made that kind of comment. Actually have heard worse from GOP Congresscritters themselves, like the ones who wanted to find out who were the real Americans in Congress and who weren't. Something others have intimated, calling the rest of us, even when we're the majority, America hating unpatriotic whatever the -ists of the week were.

    Something I've noticed here too, when some of our more right leaning members seem fine to say some people shouldn't be allowed to post, how the opinions of others don't matter, how a liberal poster should be banned for daring to give his opinion, and how one of the people who helps run this site, who's a writer here, shouldn't be allowed to give his opinion ON HIS OWN TACKBACK!!! Really? Freedom lovers my butt, only if it's your hate speech I guess.

    Dimes

    Because only libs (which apparently includes people who are actually independents and actually criticize Dems too) make personal attacks? Really? Have you not been paying attention to the rest of this thread, and the last couple of decades of American politics or so? And are you missing why maybe, just maybe, people are kinda pissed at the GOP for screwing up this country the last few years, and wanting to continue to do so with another Bush like Palin seems to be?

He's impulsive and reckless and would have been a disaster of epic proportions if he was elected.

    The key to this whole thing is Palin's ability to draw attention and spotlight everything the Obama administration is doing wrong. The more you douchebags attack this woman and her family, the more sexual violence you suggest, the more decent-minded people feel protective of her and give her a listen. She'll be an effective spokesperson against the Dems in whatever capacity she chooses--tv, radio, politics, whatever. I'm going to enjoy watching this unfold.

    ...but in that press conference where she announced she's quitting, she said, "The world needs more Trigs (her son), not less." What the fuck? So, essentially, she's saying more kids should be born with Down's syndrome, not less. That is an enormously stupid thing to say. So if doctors and scientists came up with a cure to make sure no child was ever born with Down's syndrome ever again, Palin would try to pass a bill to deny that cure to people while saying, "We need more kids like Trig with Down's syndrome, not less!!!"

    Why should we pity someone who, at sixty (or forty, as the original saying goes, IIRC), still has a great deal of compassion for humanity and is not led primarily by a concern for fiscal issues? I'm in my mid-forties and still very liberal, registered as a Green (though more indie), and I'm willing to pay higher taxes to make a country I can be truly proud of. I think lots of people would embrace a little more fiscal liberalism if they were educated about where taxes go and where they could be diverted to make a better nation. But that's just me.

    And now she's bailing on the people who elected her to serve because she wants to be a self serving prickless wanker. Dedicated? To Sarah Palin, maybe. To her fellow Alaskans? Not so much.

    "She will beat the Obamanation to a pulp...the woman we need to win."

    She couldn't handle Joe Biden, fer fucks-sake. Joe Biden, the guy who has his own feet for lunch more often than not.

    My picks as to why she quit

    by lang the cat

    There are a number of possibilities:

    1. Proof she is connected to Joe the Plummer and Charles Keating. Joe lived in Wasilla and lived in Arizona (in a Keating housing tract). Joe has the same last name as Keating's son-in-law.

    2. Proof shows up she did take bribes to set up a sports center in Wasilla. (I thought snowmobile racing was done outdoors?)

    3. Her youngest (Trike, Tonka, Tutonka?) is really Bristol's child. (While she was REALLY stupid during her labor, I never thought this rumor had too much truth to it.)
    4. She was found to be having an affair with Ted Stevens, the video has just been caught in a tube somewhere, but White House Plumbers have fixed that and the video is now out there.
    5. Same as the above, except we find out she had a three-way with John Edwards in the middle.
    6. She was caught doing a tap dance/baton routine in the bathroom at a Minnesota Airport with a flute encore.
    7. She shoplifted at Walmart and now she is afraid none of her republican friends will talk to her. Not because of the shoplifting, but because of the Walmart.

  • So we'll try again and see if you actually have the balls or brains to answer this time. Supporting a nutbag Quitter like Palin would suggest you certainly don't.
    No-one is talking about how Palin Quitting the Governorship of Alaska affects the Obama administration. Perhaps in partisan dream-land they are but not in the real world.
    They are all speculating like mad on all the Networks on WHY she quit. And they won't stop. Not today, not next week and certainly not until she or someone else can manage to explain why she Quit.
    Decent minded people will be as baffled as everyone else after that press conference and if you think otherwise you are simply deluding yourself.
    She has a base of extreme right wingers who treat her every pronouncement as the Gospel according to Saint Sarah. But that nutty fringe won't win any Elections and it's why the GOP is trying to distance themselves from her right now with nothing but platitudes and careful fence sitting statements about her departure for the most part.
    Because the Republicanst also don't have a clue why she quit but they clearly fear the worst.
    She was told by those who know what they are talking about in the GOP that returning to Governing and the hard graft of learning Policy would be the best idea if she wanted to come back as a serious Poltical figure for the Republicans.
    She totally ignored them and we see the hilarious result.
    She is a loose cannon who loses two votes for every vote she reinforces in the hard core Republican Evangelical base that would never dream of voting Dem under any circumstance anyway.
    Her only future now is as a warm up act for serious GOP Politicians and to rouse the far right fringeb base in Conventions or as a female Limbaugh.
    Who knows ? That might be exactly what she wants and gets her the fame and money she clearly craves but she ain't gonna win any Elections for anyone doing that and she will be easily dismissed as a whining Quitter who couldn't handle a real job or the media after this.

Two points: No matter what you think of Sarah Palin, I'd love to see any of you fu**tards do a national interview with anyone and not look like a complete dumbfu**... The Couric interview did not prove anything about her intelligence- it proved she folded under the pressure of an interview. If you feel that disqualifies her from higher office, fine. But I think the fact that you loser liberals posting here from your parents basement think you're smarter than Palin is laughable. Palin... governer, vice-presidental candidate... loser liberal- job at Starbucks or volunteering at abortion clinic or tofu research facility... I wonder who is smarter? And secondly, I love how you granola-munchers go on and on about Palin and religious conservatives and how they "think everyone else is going to hell." Where is the condemnation of Jews, who think they alone are God's Chosen People, or Muslims, who also feel they alone will be saved? Why the hate directed only at Christians? Oh, and great job picking Joe Biden... sadly, though, he is probably more competent than the Manchurian robot in the Oval Office.

    As for Palin being ready, I'll be the first to say she wasn't ready for the office of the POTUS. Unfortunately, either was the Messiah, and I can already see how that is going to turn out. I for one was alright with the VP having little experience because MCain (as much as I really dislike him) was more than qualified. One question though: so if Palin re-emerges and nails another Couric interview, does that mean her IQ increased or that she became more polished and comfortable in the setting? Because, again, we see that the Messiah is very polished with the telepromptor and the friendly media, but struggles off the cuff and with any real question.

    It's always entertaining

    by irritable

    when an old-fashioned right-wing meathead like letsgobrownies44 starts acting intellectually superior on these talkbacks.

    So here's the irony: you're denouncing stupidity, yet:

    1. you describe posters who hold opinions you dislike -in this case, virtually every poster on the page - as "self-righteous liberals" "fu**tards" "complete dumbfu**cks", "loser liberals posting here from your parents basement" "volunteer[s] at abortion clinic or tofu research facility".

    These ancient right-wing cliche insults are evidence of what? Your genius at invective - or perhaps your stupid assumption that posters on this site can all be lumped into an imaginary, homogeneous Limbaugh-style stereotype of political naifs? Your peurile assumptions mark you as an unimaginative dunce.

    2. You make a ridiculously pompous statement like "I had to turn away to avoid emesis" and immediately follow it up with a typo - "naseous". Sweet irony.

    3. You think that Palin's clueless performances under mild interview pressure didn't reveal her lack of intellectual resources? Somehow her inarticulate rambling and ignorance about basic issues during the Couric interview masked a keen intelligence, clarity of thought and depth of knowledge? On that basis George W Bush is Einstein!

    So don't assume you're going to get into MENSA so easily, letsgobrownies44. On your record so far, you might try DENSA first.

    JJ Abrams to reboot Sarah Palin

    by inactionman

    (AP)Hollywood California - Producer/Director JJ Abrams (Star Trek, Lost, Alias, Mission Impossible II) announced today that he would be doing a remake of Sarah Palin. "I would prefer to call it a 'reimaginging'" Abams said "We want to keep the MILFY hotness and the folksy charisma but, we want to tone down the awe inspiring dumbfuckery and appeal to a younger demographic while still retaining the existing Sarah Palin fan base."

    Abrams is currently casting for an attractive young woman 18 to 25 to play the role of Sarah. "We would prefer a girl with that stupid Minnasota/Alaska accent but, we could always get a dialog coach to teach her annoying verbal ticks to the right pick for the role."

    Bob Orci and Hackeva Goldsman are reportedly be in talks to script."I would give Sarah a sassy black female sidekick who speaks ebonics and has a gold tooth." Said Orci.

    "She should also have a cool car like a Humvee that turns into a giant robot. Better yet all the Palins should have Humvees that turn into robots that when joined together turn into an even bigger Humvee." Said Goldsman.

    "We are keeping the retard baby" Said Abrams "but we are not going to go full retard."

    The project to be entitled "Sarah Palin: Revenge of the White Trash:Requiem" is planned to be released in late 2011 or early 2012.

    by ayatollahsexyback

    for once, according to the lofty social ideals they claim to abide. But forget Mark Sanford for a moment. In Palin's own family you've got:

    - Marital infidelity
    - Teenage sex
    - Tax evasion
    - Innumerable violations of the code of ethics
    - Threats made against Levi Johnston and his family

    and the list goes on. It's positively tragic the people some wingnuts hold in high regard.

    I'm not defending her because I think she's the "messiah"

    by coughlins laws

    Whoever said that is just stupid. I think she's a good person and will be a good fundraiser. However, I don't think she has any chance to run for President in 2012. Maybe, depending on what she does next, stay out of the spotlight for a year or so to regroup, while at the same time working somehow to bone up on the issues she needs help on, she could reemerge for the 2016 contest. Although I believe that is doubtful as well. she made a mistake accepting the VP bid. Unfortunately, in this day and age, you need to have years of experience in media scrutiny and doing the guantlet of interviews to survive a Presidential campain. She needs to start doing more live interviews and not subject herself to sit for one of these anchors that can edit everything and easily make you look bad. I don't know. I hope things work out for her. I think her next step will obviously be to move away from Alaska and relocate to Virginia or New York. We'll see. I just don't understand why the Left hates her as much as they do. It's really kind of silly. The last 3 months of the campaign it was as if it was Obama against Palin and McCain was an afterthought. McCain made two mistakes. He should have chosen Mitt Romney and he could've gone hard after Obama's experience, and he should've never "suspended" his campaign. If he had done that joint statement with Obama it would've been a wash. Or, like I believe, he should've been against the TARP bill. But anyway, Sarah Palin is gone, at least for a little while, and can try to regroup. Anyone who says they know for sure what she's doing is either a liar just like to stir shit up. 4 years, or especially 8 years, is a long time in politics. Remember, just a little over 4 years ago Obama was a little known state senator from Illinois who wasn't a shoe-in to be elected US Senator, and look at him now. The man never even so much as ran a Lemonade Stand, and now, 4 years later, He runs the Free World and runs GM and runs the Banking Industry, and might be running Health Care by the end of the summer. Nothing is impossible in politics. There could be a huge backlash against Obama in 4 years, now that an unnamed Republican has this so far awful record to run against...

The Huffington Post or the dailykos? 4) She wasn't found to have violated ANY rules of ethics or codes of conduct. They were all false allegations and ALL of them were found to be baseless. She hasn't been found to have violated ANY codes of ethics. 5) What "threats" were made against Levi Johnston and his family? Is your source the National Enquirer or The Globe?

    So... you still haven't addressed the anti-semitic thing but, oh well. The Repubs were "thrashed" the last election? 53% to 47% is a thrashing? If that is the best you could do, with supposedly the most hated president ever, in the middle of a financial meltdown, with the "most charismatic candidate ever," I see why your side feels the need to attack any and all threats. Sal Alinsky, huh? And by the way, that criticism of Palin by Rove and Huckabee referenced by G100 was a bit exaggerated but, seeing as how it took place on Fox News, once again shows how fair and balanced that network is. Unlike MSNBC, where Olbermann was having multiple orgasms over Palin resigning because of attacks against her family. And ASB, I was unaware crimes/faults in our own family should be held against us. If that is the case, we have the racism of Obama's grandmother, his father abandoning him, his aunt's illegal immigration his friend's domestic terrorism, his wife's dislike of her own country........

    As for "marital infedility" - if it's true, then it's contrary to lofty Republican "values". I'd have to agree that the Democrats, understandably, don't pretend that marital infidelity is against the order of nature.
    Violation of ethics? Tax evasion? No conclusive evidence of that is there? There certainly seems to be something brewing in the background - but it might turn out to be a ridiculous beat-up ... like Whitewater.

    Here is your post "I love how you granola-munchers go on and on about Palin and religious conservatives and how they "think everyone else is going to hell." Where is the condemnation of Jews, who think they alone are God's Chosen People, or Muslims, who also feel they alone will be saved? Why the hate directed only at Christians?"

    I'll tell you why its anti-semetic because Jews is the first thing that jumps into your head when you want to point to a relgious group to vilify. You could have pointed out that lumping all Christian conservatives into a monolithic group was inaccurate without mentioning any other faith but, you made the choice to go after the most persecuted religious minority in western civilization.

    Nobody here hates Christians. It's the fucking American Taliban who can't just practice their faith that is the problem. They need to insure that everyone else in the world lives according to their rules. They try to legislate morality, force prayer into schools, dictate sexual behavior, ban valid scientific inquiry and censor any idea they don't like. If Palin every really got power I am sure she would bring back stoning because it is in the bible.

    If you don't like abortion don't have one, if you are against gay marriage don't suck cock and have a wedding ceremony, if you don't like George Carlin talking dirty change the channel.

After all, soldiers never quit, so her connection with them in speech is baseless. There is no reason for her to mention the troops than to do exactly what I said about: make the dumb, blind conservatives continue to think she's a wonderful person simply bc she mentioned them. Its a distraction. "Palin's quitting her job? But oh wait, she loves the troops and has visited them! What a wonderful person..." And then they completely forget the woman just quit her job.

As for "investigations," the FBI just took the highly unusual step of issuing a statement that they are not and have never considered investigating Palin, despite what the DailyKos and HuffPost have been reporting. And INactionman, your explanation of anti-semitism is really logical; the holocaust, the 3-day war, and now me listing Jews first in a list of the Abrahamic religions- true atrocities. What a moron. You do realize that republicans are the only friends the Jewish people have left? The democrats have long left Israel out to dry, and, of course, the lefties in Europe love them so much....

Timothy Geithner, Obama's Secretary of Treasury and Head of the IRS, failed to pay at least $34,000 in taxes. I remember alot of people, I don't know if specifically you, saying it didn't matter. You see, you can't say it doesn't matter that the Secretary of Treasury doesn't pay taxes and then get mad that a Governor from Alaska didn't pay taxes on something her accontants did see as income.

    The key to this whole thing is Palin's ability to draw attention and spotlight everything the Obama administration is doing wrong. The more you douchebags attack this woman and her family, the more sexual violence you suggest, the more decent-minded people feel protective of her and give her a listen. She'll be an effective spokesperson against the Dems in whatever capacity she chooses--tv, radio, politics, whatever. I'm going to enjoy watching this unfold.

    This is a late response to your post to me, so maybe you won't see this, but here goes. You said:The entire other 80% of us don't have to be as partisan as "your side" (who are the ones talking about sides, and who are the ones trying to be bi-partisan and make compromises), it's obvious to us why we don't like her, mostly legitimate reasons, same way we hated Bush, and ARE angry at Obama when he does the same crap.

    I say: I highly doubt that you would want me to say that you are 100% behind every statement every democrat has ever said, ever. Although you may vote democrat, more than likely, there are one or two issues where you diverge from what your "party" says are supposed to be your values. Somewhere, somehow, you have ideas that go against the DNC.

    Well guess what, I have ideas that go against the RNC. So where does that leave us?

    That leaves us about 150 years ago. North vs. South. Republican vs. Democrat. Black vs. White. Is that the type of world you want to live in? Where you have TWO choices each election, and on top of that, you feel compelled to DEFEND every single statement, that every single person in your "political party" has ever said, ever???? Do you want THAT type of responsibility? And on TOP of that, do you enjoy the "party line" tactic of LITERALLY HATING people who see the world differently? Is that your evolved futuristic 21st century worldview? "Hate the guy who votes different than me, ridicule him, call him unpatriotic, and hope he dies an early death" etc?

    Only you can answer these questions. If you think left versus righ is life versus death, or right versus wrong, you have many years of pain, broken friendships, and stress-related illnesses before you.

    You are one of the most moronic posters ever. Youv'e proved it many times over. "Hey everybody...here's a list of atheists! See, some people don't believe in God". Meaning what exactly?
    Many of the people you 'cut and pasted' into your little list are at least agnostic or have other spiritual beliefs. So NOW what? Are they NOT worthy of your respect? Are they idiots now after all? After all...you saw Religiolous!
    Your as shallow as a mountain stream. You have no insight whatsoever. Your only awareness of anything religious is limited to tv evangelists and jihadists. What scope! What breadth of knowledge you have! In your pithy 20 something years of life you haven't even scratched the surface of your own limited conciousness. Instead, you scratch your own ass and trumpet your own superiority over 'religious ' people.
    Yes, many are stupid and moronic and yet others do more good in a day than you will EVER do in your whole life.
    Let me save you the effort of expending your obvioulsy limited intellectual power by telling you I am NOT a Christian...so you can redirect your energies away from crafting insults and maybe explain why you are such an intolerant, hateful little prick.

    PAGLIA on PALIN

    by doctorwho?

    McGoo Twat may want to remove her from his listbecause...*gasp* she actually has an objective view onthe Palin circus. What a cunt!
    CAMILLE PAGLIA
    I assume that family priorities -- personal as well as financial -- had become all-consuming. Given her success with finalizing the massive Alaska pipeline project, I think Palin should have stuck it out, but of course she is master of her own fate. What certainly was blameworthy was the chaotic and rushed statement itself. Something so politically consequential needed more careful composition and rehearsal. Why provide more fodder for the vultures and harpies of the Northeastern media?


    Unfortunately, it's pretty obvious that Palin still lacks that cadre of trusted pros who are the invisible elves behind every successful national politician -- the assistants who gather and vet material and who filter proposals and plan logistics. In a way, this is part of her virtues -- her complete freedom from routine micromanagement and business as usual. She does her own thing with seat-of-the-pants gusto. It's why she remains hugely popular with the Republican grass-roots base -- as I know from listening to talk radio. Callers coming fresh from her rallies are always heady with infectious enthusiasm.


    Of course you'd never know that from reading hit jobs like Todd Purdum's sepulchral piece on Palin in the current Vanity Fair. Scurrying around Alaska with his notepad, Purdum still managed to find comically little to indict her with. Anyone with a gripe is given the floor; fans are shut out. This exercise in faux objectivity is exposed at key points such as Purdum's failure to identify the actual instigator of Palin's extravagant clothing bills (a crazed, credit-card-abusing stylist appointed by the McCain campaign) and his prissy characterization of Palin's performance at the vice-presidential debate as merely "adequate." Hey, wake up -- Palin cleaned Biden's clock! By the end, Biden was sighing and itching to split.


    Whether Palin has a national future or not will depend on her willingness to hit the books at some point and absorb more information about international history and politics than she has needed to know in her role as governor. She also needs a shrewder, cooler take on the mainstream media, with its preening bullies, cackling witches, twisted cynics and pompous windbags. The Northeastern media establishment is in decline, and everyone knows it. Palin should not have gotten into a slanging match with David Letterman or anyone else who has been obsessively defaming her or her family. Let surrogates do that stuff.


    The vicious double standard is pretty obvious. Only the tabloids, for example, ran the photos of a piss-drunk Chelsea Clinton, panties exposed, falling into her car outside London clubs a few years ago. If Chelsea had been the scion of Republican bigwigs, those tacky scenes would have been trumpeted from pillar to post in the U.S. as signals of parental failures or turmoil in clan Clinton. As a Democrat, I detest the partisan machinations that have become standard in Northeastern news management and that are detectable in editorial decisions at major metropolitan newspapers nationwide. It's why I, like a host of others, have shifted my news gathering to the Web.

    MJ WAS ONE OF OUR GREATEST AMBASSADORS TO THE WORLD

    by ayatollahsexyback

    What has Peter King ever done but run his mouth Palin-style? Call your congressman and support Sheila Jackson Lee's resolution!!!!

    "WASHINGTON — Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee may have trouble keeping the promise she made at Michael Jackson's public memorial for a House resolution that "forever" honors the late pop star.

    Jackson Lee, a Texas Democrat, took the stage Tuesday at the Staples Center in Los Angeles and hoisted a framed copy of the resolution, embossed with a gold seal. The measure will be debated on the House floor, she said.

    For that framed, embossed resolution to be completely legit, it must first get past some opposition.

    Rep. Peter King, a New York Republican who called Jackson a "pervert, child molester, pedophile" in a video he posted on YouTube this week, vowed Tuesday to do "whatever I have to do" to oppose honoring Jackson.

    Without mentioning King by name, Jackson Lee noted at the memorial that Michael Jackson was acquitted of child molestation charges. She blasted critics who "don't understand the hearts of entertainers" and "don't know how they heal the world on behalf of America."

    "We understand the Constitution. We understand laws and we know people are innocent until proven otherwise. That is what the Constitution stands for," Jackson Lee said, clutching the framed resolution in front of her shiny white suit.

    Her legislation, House Resolution 600, lists several charitable acts by Michael Jackson over his long career and proclaims him as an American legend, musical icon and world humanitarian. He is, Jackson Lee said, "someone who will be honored forever and forever and forever and forever and forever."

    In the House, non-controversial resolutions honoring a person who has died or carried out a noteworthy accomplishment normally move quickly from committee to the House floor and then pass on a voice vote. The Michael Jackson resolution, introduced June 26, is awaiting action in the House Foreign Affairs Committee, of which Jackson Lee is a member and King is not.


    An opponent could ask for a recorded vote, which then requires a two-thirds majority for passage. So far, Jackson Lee's resolution has just one co-sponsor, Rep. Diane Watson, D-Calif.

    Jackson Lee hosted a 2004 meeting in her Capitol Hill office that brought Michael Jackson together with ambassadors to the U.S. from African countries. At the time, Jackson was considering a tour to raise money to fight AIDS. However, he was also facing child molestation charges and was unable to leave the country without court permission.

    Even so, Jackson was greeted by screams, applause and flashing cameras.

    Jackson also visited Iraq veterans at Walter Reed Hospital while in Washington."

    "fuck all religion - it just makes you stupid"
    That insightful comment pretty much sums up your depth of nuance on the topic. And while you try to be magnanimous by stating "I don't hate ALL practitioners of orgznized religion" in cannot erase your obvious bigotry. And NO, being "provacative" is not the same as "irony".
    And I do admire a great many people on that list, especially Hitchens who I think is one of the best commentators today. Suprised? I doubt highly that you would even give a Christian or a Buddhist the time of day (or even Palin if you saw her on the street) because of course...they're stupid and beneath contempt. Class act. As evidenced by other rabid posters like you...it's not enough to disagree, one must be repudiated.

    As for ASB, name one piece of "bile" that Fox News has spread against a democratic candidate that wasn't true. I watch Fox and MSNBC, and MSNBC with Matthews and Olbermann and Maddow is just sickening to watch. Of course I'll admit that Fox is for conservatives, but they at least attempt to present views from both sides. Olbermann is the nastiest commentator I've ever seen, and certainly not the brightest.

    And by the way I don't vote FOR politicians... I vote AGAINST politicians. In other words, if you thought John Kerry or Al Gore would have been good presidents you have my pity.

    What IS relevant is one's values. There are countless "religious" people who are fucking monsters and countless athiests who are as well. To me it's not what you believe but what you actually PRACTICE.
    Religious systems (flawed as they are) AT LEAST provide a source of values for people to start from. I judge individual practitioners NOT religions.

    Alienator: The Sarah Palin Chronicles.

    Synopsis: In 1983 a man name Todd claiming to be from the future approached Sarah Palin at the college bar "Mr. Potato Heads" while Sarah was attending the University of Idaho. Todd told Sarah that in the future the Republican Party would destroy America and Sarah was the only hope for mankind. Todd then impregnated her.

    Sarah dedicated her life to destroying the Republican Party from within and alienating Republicans from the American people. Working tirelessly to insinuate herself deep within the Republican establishment. She trained with a Chinese Master in the ancient art of incoherent gibberish. Her goal was destroy the Republicans from within by making them look so fucking ridiculous that no one take them seriously anymore. Future man Todd would reappear occasionally to impregnate Sarah then return to the wilderness for "Secret Missions".

    Twenty-five years later Sarah has been joined in her quest to destroy the Republican Party by Governor Sanford of North Carolina, Senator Larry Craig, Congressman Mark Foley and Elisabeth Hasselbeck a robot from the future disguised as a hot chick with the IQ of a brick.

    The program has been scheduled for Fox's Friday night death slot.

    by doctorwho?

    Correct, religion is not hardwired into our DNA. However the search for transcendent experience, enlightenment, salvation has been around since time immemorial.
    The spiritual path requires discipline and effort. Some believe huge ardous work over LIFETIMES. Th Buddhist tradition says Buddha achieved enlightenment after 3 incaculable eons of striving. Cracking open the Bible or Quran expecting answers is a joke. Sign posts, nothing more. The "prove it to me" attitude will never yield any spiritual experience...one must actively seek answers. IF you believe in that sort of thing. If not...fine.
    Scientology and Satanism?
    Seem harmless enough to me. Again, I do not judge religions...only individual practitioners.
    I've seen some Scientolgy stuff that seems utterly silly and some completely practical. I won't dismiss someone because I find out they are a Scientologist. The same reason I don't belittle Palin if she really does believe in that whole dinosaur nonscence. Whatever! She seems decent, loves her kids, typical family, would make a nice neighbor etc. (Isn't that what really counts?) Green and out of her depth politically sure, but dammned if I'm going to gang rape the woman like you fucktards.

    oreilly on MJ

    by six demon bag

    FOX News host Bill O'Reilly continued his streak of controversial statements during his show on Tuesday in reaction to Michael Jackson's memorial service which was held earlier in the day.

    O'Reilly criticized Jackson for "incredible selfishness -- spending hundreds of million dollars on himself while singing 'We Are the World,'" and said that it "should make any clear-thinking American nauseous."

    Speaking to guest analyst Marc Lamont Hill, a black FOX commentator, O'Reilly also addressed race as an issue at the memorial service: "Why are Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton making this a racial deal? Jackson bleached his own skin. And then chose white men to provide existence for his in vitro children. Give me a break with all this."

    Hill responded: "You have me baffled in your analysis here, to say this isn't a racial issue, when this man's entire career has been marked by the tropes of race... Yes, the black community has embraced him, yes the black community has wrapped its arms around him more in death, but that's because the media has assaulted him in ways they don't do with white people of his stature."

    Hill continued: "Now he has passed away. A year or two ago, when Jerry Falwell died, you and I debated this very point. You said, 'Give him three days to a week and let the people mourn him before you start talking about his racist politics.' So why are we giving Jerry Falwell something that we won't give Michael Jackson?"

    The two debated for quite some time on whether Jackson had helped in uniting black and White Americans. The debate, however, turned into a shouting match with O'Reilly proclaiming: "If he's such a black American icon, why did he have his kids with white men!?"

    Hill responded: "That's a personal matter. That doesn't make him less black -- there's no blackness meter here. You don't become less black if you have a white kid."
    fuck his nazi ass.

    Yet another hypocritical stance from a Republican. They encourage wealth and spending but when a black Lib does it, it's a shameful thing.

    As for MJ's race, hey who knows what affected him. I know for one thing his own father tortured him about his Black features. That sure didn't help. He's beyond complicated and I'm not qualified to psychoanalyze him.

    All I know is the results of his life. Nice kids, great art, a benefactor to many fine causes, and exonerated of molestation charges. Sure as shit a better human being than O'Reilly and Peter King could ever dream of being.

    HEY WINGNUTS VICTORIA JACKSON WANTS TO BE YOUR GODDESS TOO

    by bringingsexyback

    Former "Saturday Night Live" star Victoria Jackson posted an incoherent rant against President Obama on Andrew Breitbart's Big Hollywood website on Tuesday.

    Taking aim at everything from health care reform to rock bands, Jackson's rambling diatribe describes Obama as a kind of wolf in sheep's clothing.

    "You see, evil doesn't just show up. It disguises itself as something nice; so you'll let it in. It tricks you," she writes.

    Jackson, an actress, singer and comedienne, was part of the same SNL cast as Dana Carvey, Dennis Miller and Phil Hartman. She also appeared on the VH1 weight loss show "Celebrity Fit Club" in 2005.

    During the 2008 presidential election, Jackson came out against then-Senator Barack Obama, calling him everything from a racist to a communist.

    In a particularly irrational appearance on "The O'Reilly Factor," she told O'Reilly that Obama reminds her of "Castro In Cuba, the guy in China." (Presumably Mao.)

    Jackson also joined other B-list celebrities in a National Republican Senatorial Committee ad against Al Franken.

    This latest rant is a real gem:

    "I woke up in the middle of the night and realized the trick.

    You see, evil doesn't just show up. It disguises itself as something nice; so you'll let it in. It tricks you. [...]

    Social Security and Medicare are broke. Baby boomers, like me, are getting old and will soon be asking for it. Socialized medicine makes people die. You stand in a long, long line with a breast lump, clogged artery, or sharp pencil stuck in your eye, and someone like the DMV person, who can't speak English, has chewing gum, an attitiude [sic], really long fake nails that curl up at the end, and is talking on a cell phone, enjoying their power trip moment, is finally face to face with you. They mumble something incoherent about paperwork. You die. One less person in line for Social Security and Medicare!

    Obama legally kills babies and now he can legally kill Grandmas!

    Hitler did this. He killed the weak, the sick, the old, and babies and races/religions he didn't like. Hitler also controlled the media. (Where's the public debate between scientists on "Climate Change/Global Warming?") Hitler had the VW bug invented as the state car. What will O's nationalized car be? So... kill off the weak. That's the plan. Tax the workers to death. Erase the middle class. Sounds like the evil governments we studied in high school long ago. The evil governments were : kings, oligarchies, facist [sic], socialist, and communist. Now it's called the Obama Administration. Sounds like candy or a rock band."

    Shamawn!! Tell me then, what about America is so attractive to practically the entire world? Other than ideals (which we rarely live up to, but continue to aspire to) and corporate branding (which we're not exactly leaders of anymore) ... it's PEOPLE.

    I can tell you it's NOT due to Sarah Palin, Bill O'Reilly, Peter King or Camille Paglia.

    It's due to icons like Michael Jackson. Brad Pitt. Madonna. Bruce Springsteen. Et cetera.

    Michael Jackson is a purely American icon. Yes, he was a world-class star, but he was always the American ideal. Please don't take my word for it. Ask anyone outside the borders.

    And if not for an affinity for American culture and pop icons, I can tell you the world would not suffer American indiscretions as much as they do. How many times have you heard, during the Bush years, from people around the world saying something to the effect of "we don't dislike Americans we just hate their policies, or leaders"?

    That's not necessarily because they know an American personally, or watched your random Fox News commentator berate the world.

    It's precisely because of people like MJ. And you know it.

Terrific analysis. I cannot wait for Mount Rushmore to be renovated to include these titans of freedom. Again, you are truly a moron.

    As for O'Reilly's comments about MJ, I also agree he was a bit harsh. However, unlike some conservative commentators, O'Reilly really does always criticize extreme wealth and wasting money; this wasn't isolated to Jackson. And I agree with him that it was laughable to act like MJ was a new MLK or Gandhi. However, the comments about the children's race were better left unsaid or brought up in a different discussion, maybe an analysis of Jackson's psychological makeup because of his father's abuse. And as for the pedophile comments of King- poor taste. He was found innocent and whatever you believe, those comments did not deserve airing in the weeks right after his death.

As soon as I saw Sharpton in attendance I knew that these guys would pounce on this. The fact of the matter is, regardless of his very salien mental issues, they were correct in assessing that Michael broke down racial barriers, particularly on mtv, which never played a single black video until the Thriller album came along. David Bowie even called them out on this once. I had the privilege of seeing him live in the early eighties (when he still had my awe and respect, which I've since lost) and i can tell you that it was the 1st and only concert I've attended where blacks and whites were sitting side by side, laughing, clapping, sharing binoculars, etc. I'm gonna miss that guy.

    Whether we like it or not, or think it's ridiculous (which I do), the fact is that Brad Pitt generates more goodwill abroad than our accomplishments in WWII (which is not insignificant, of course).

    But checking back now, both sites are suddenly providing an entirely different location, the Kapi'olani Medical Center for Women and Children, also in the capital of the Aloha State.

    Within hours of a WND report revealing Obama's birth being reported at two different Hawaiian hospitals, both sites changed their information to suddenly fall in line with the president's claim that he was born at Kapi'olani."

    I know you are enamored with the shallow world of celebrity (Dancing with the Stars, Kate and what's his fuck, Michael Jackson and your gushing man crush on Obama) but c'mon.
    Yes American CULTURE as a whole is what has made an indelible impression on the people of the world and MJ is but one piece in that puzzle. So was Louis Armstrong, Charlie Parker, Duke Ellington, Elvis, Humphrey Bogart, James Dean, John Wayne, Maryilin Monroe, Superman, Jimi Hendrix, Tom Cruise and a billion others! MJ and these others are a product of America

    But people flocked to this country before ANY of that and many who do so now don't know or maybe don't care about half of those people. It might come as a shock that people may not be as infatuated with celebrity as some Americans ensconced in fluffy sofas in front of plasma screens with vast leisure time.

    "And if not for an affinity for American culture and pop icons, I can tell you the world would not suffer American indiscretions as much as they do."
    What the hell does this mean I've read it 3X! Does America stomp around the globe crushing helpless peace loving nations and peoples because they do not LOVE our pop icons enough?
    And any examples of other countries with loftier ideals than America?

    In trying to piece together what in the hell your actual point was... I came to guess that you are saying because of the rampant bloddy religious wars thoroughly recorded throughout history... ALL works, efforts, sacrifices and compassion shown by religious people (mostly unknown and anonymous) is therefore moot.
    Am I right? Is that your brilliant deduction? Everybody who works through a church or religious organization feeing the homeless, helping battered women, feeding starving kids in Africa etc. are simply "apologists for murderers"???

    Then I stand corrected. So they may have played the music of one black artist (although I think it was actually around the same time)...that makes a difference, how exactly?

    Mike's music was a literal bridge between hard rock and r&b, and opened the gateway to a more diverse run of music on the network.

    "It might come as a shock that people may not be as infatuated with celebrity as some Americans ensconced in fluffy sofas in front of plasma screens with vast leisure time."---so says the man on an entertainment site. i love it.and to Dr. who?--the america that our ancestors immigrated to in the 1800s is far different from the america now...when MJ was king of pop in the 80-90s, americans could be proud and unashamed to travel abroad without being looked upon a some jock from a fratboy hillbilly cowboy nation. furthermore, ask any kid in the US who they want to be, they more times than not will say a celebrity's name, not the president, not gandhi, the pope, mother teresa, or any unnamed soldier who died valiantly in WWII. BSB is not condoning that, he is just saying that MJ was a kind person who gave a lot and people, regardless of race, color, nation, creed, culture, gender could look upon him with admiration and humility. he did a lot of good when he was alive and shall do moreso in death...i know that everyone who had a soul the few days after he died felt like a kid again. that has to stand for something.and there will NEVER be anyone as popular and as loved as him. EVER.

    "the america that our ancestors immigrated to in the 1800s is far different from the america now.."
    Ya think? The point was people largely love America then and now because of what she offers in terms of liberty, individualism, self-determination etc. This is not about MJ per se. I can't think of a biiger star...bigger than the Beatles were arguably.
    I am responding to BSB's touchy feely notion that some how MJ's presence in peoples lives is directly related to their POLITICAL view of America. Really? Can you back that up with something? It's a nice thing to say but it's baseless.
    And FUCK the politicians because NOWHERE did I infer such figures inspire one iota of respect. On the contrary, BSB ruminates frequently on Obama's mere presence on the horizon to make the flowers bloom and all of the nasty people in the world to make happy-nice-time. Oh, but I forgot...America IS the problem.
    Back to MJ...I agree with everything you said and I'm not even half the fan you sound to be. Sweet guy with major issues sadly. Talented as anybody ever was. Saw that Billie Jean Grammy performance recenlty and was knocked out. but trying to paint him as one of America's only 'bright spots' is just laughable.

    So, let's say you go to Germany in 1980 and some German guy sees you as an otherwise stupid American tourist but then thinks to himself..."Hey, wait a minute. MICHAEL IS FROM AMERICA!!!! Therefore, this guy is probably a kind fellow, well bred and educated with good morales and values. I think I'll buy him a pint and show him around the Motherland."

    If you are genuinely insulted by my calling you a moron, I apologize. Honestly, it is and was said in good fun. And, yes, I do appreciate that american culture is beloved across the globe. You are right- young Iranians love the US not just for our ideals but also for our culture, be it movies, music or fashion. But they see democracy and our ideals as the source of that culture... not the other way around, and that's important. Freedom allows those liberal Hollywood people that I am so annoyed with to thrive, and they recognize that. As much as so many here hated Bush, and as much as so many people around the globe did as well, they saw how our system works- they saw everyone, criticize, mock, and practically castrate Bush, without reprisal. "w" was made, the Times continued to publish, and Baldwin wasn't shipped out. That means something more than any one artist.

    The key to this whole thing is Palin's ability to draw attention and spotlight everything the Obama administration is doing wrong. The more you douchebags attack this woman and her family, the more sexual violence you suggest, the more decent-minded people feel protective of her and give her a listen. She'll be an effective spokesperson against the Dems in whatever capacity she chooses--tv, radio, politics, whatever. I'm going to enjoy watching this unfold.

    The Right has a problem with Obama's humility. I think after 8 years of Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld it's a necessity - at least for the first year or so - to rebuild relationships and forge new ones. Like with Syria.

    I appreciate that post. Thank you for that. Your point is well taken. I wish the Iranians could share immediately in the freedoms we enjoy here, but unfortunately we are seeing the iron fist of totalitarianism trying to crush them. But I think you are just as inspired as I with the protestors' resilience. Moussavi - that guy is a legitimate hero. It will be very interesting to see the outcome of all this.

    And I think Obama is very shrewd to be trying to forge stronger relationships with Russia and Syria at this point in time - two of Iran's closest allies. If successful, he could well isolate the hardliners even if they do maintain their power.

    "I really dont care what other people think about me personally..i would have to pretty vain to think that" But you did say people in foreign countries look at you like some hillbilly, jock...obviously it matters to you.
    "i do kinda care how other nations think of america" No you don't. If America IS the problem than the right thing to do would be stand up for what you believe and agree with them.

    If you think America is THE problem then you are delusional. The instability and poverty in more than 1/3 of the world generates it's own misery without any help from the U.S. But hey if you are of the 'America is the root of all evil' mindset then whatever. If America disappeared tomorrow I'm sure you think the remaining countries of planet Earth would join hands in peace and prosperity.
    So obama draws big adoring crowds(except Russia) to hear vapid speeches by a splendid orator and you feel good. Fine, but I like to see results of good intentions.
    It's the leaders reactions of him you need to watch. Amadinejad gets invited to a barbeque at the White House but Iran won't even broadcast his Cairo speech. Ah the unity! Don't see why not...Obama was more than apologetic about imperialism and colonialism (which the U.S never was involved in) and laid on the moral equivalence on thick.
    Look...it depends on who's opinions you care about. If the opinions of a bunch of thugs like Chavez, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Kim Jong-il, Isaias Afewerki, Yoweri Museveni, Saparmurat Niyazov etc. matter to you and if it hurts your feelings if they don't like us then whatever. You were probably the kid in the school yard who made nice with the schoolyard bully to save your own ass and to make things easier on yourself.

    Future Pres. Palin wants to be a reality star!!!!

    by six demon bag

    The former fiance of Gov. Sarah Palin's 18-year-old daughter says he thinks he knows why the Alaska governor is resigning — concerns over money.

    Levi Johnston, 19, whose wedding to Bristol Palin was called off earlier this year, says he believes the governor is resigning over personal finances.

    Johnston says he lived with the Palin family from early December to the second week in January. He claims he heard the governor several times say how nice it would be to take advantage of the lucrative deals that were being offered, including a reality show and a book.

    "I think the big deal was the book. That was millions of dollars," said Johnston, who has had a strained relationship with the family but now says things have improved.

    Palin has a book deal, but compensation details haven't been disclosed. The governor has said she is facing more than $500,000 in legal fees.

    "It is interesting to learn Levi is working on a piece of fiction while honing his acting skills," Palin family spokeswoman Meghan Stapleton said in an e-mail to The Associated Press.

    Johnston made his comments at a news conference Thursday at the office of his attorney, Rex Butler.

    Johnston came forward, Butler said, because Alaskans want to know why Palin has decided to resign. She made the announcement last Friday.

    Johnston also is pursuing his own book deal. He is working as a carpenter while also pursuing a movie deal.

    Six Demon Bag

    by immortal_fish

    When I was reading your first post in reply to mine, I had the thought of comparing it to job hunting. And sure enough, you drew on the same analogy in your second post to me.

    Well, here's where that theory falls apart... Ever try telling your current employer that you've been consistently looking for other work? Ever tell your employer that you're doing something OTHER than applying for a job on a certain day you'd like to take off? Ever tell the interviewer that they could certainly call your current employer for a reference? Of course you or anyone else wouldn't do these things for obvious reasons. And yet we constantly allow our elected representation to do that very same thing to us once we've employed them.

    No, it's not the same as quitting, but only technically. Looking for other work while drawing a paycheck for work you're not doing is pretty damn comparable in my opinion.

    And I feel this way about ALL politicians. I gave John Edwards a good listen during the 2004 primaries solely because he wasn't running for reelection for Senator. Granted, ends up he didn't stand a chance of winning reelection and he ultimately wasn't what I was looking for in a candidate anyway. Doesn't change why he initially stood out to me though.

    Lookit, I'm no cheerleader for Palin. As an agnostic, I have a few problems with some of her convictions. Yet, considering how journalism unfolded into full blown whorenalism last year, I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt and listen. No matter what side you're on, it's easy to see how Obama got pass after pass from the press last year. Meanwhile, Palin was absolutely clobbered by comparison over a 2-month period.

    Scroll up to a post by OfficerJunior titled "I can see Russia from my house." The actual quote was "You can see Russia from the coast of Alaska." Tina Fey twisted that around to "I can see Alaska from my house." Funny, yet Palin is remembered for saying something ridiculous that she never said as evidenced by OfficerJunior. Meanwhile, Obama gets away with "57 states and 2 more to go," "typical white person," "unproven missile defense technology," using breathalyzers to treat asthma, asking if they speak Austrian in Austria, using teleprompters to such extent that he introduces himself at a speech, etc. It's this transparent biased shit that grabs me by the lapels and makes me take notice enough to give Palin the benefit of the doubt that I normally wouldn't have otherwise.

    I agree that Palin should have served out her term. She should have run the course of the job that her constituents elected her to do. I also do not doubt for a minute that she is placing herself ahead of Alaska, not the other way around. On the other hand, this is not a unique characteristic limited to only her. All politicians are for themselves instead of the people they represent, as obviated by Omaba's decade long hunger for holding higher office.

    Yet here in this very TB, Palin is being accused of receiving tons of money for speeches she hasn't even delivered yet. Meanwhile, Al Gore jets all over the world doing exactly that. And, besides, criticizing her for leaving office prematurely in order to study up and gain experience in the lower 48 is the next logical progression since by doing so she can no longer be criticized for being out of touch in a non-contiguous state with a smaller population. The woman is damned if she does, damned if she don't. And it is this rabid demagoguery that ultimately leads me to give her a listen.

    i are pretty much in agreement about the whole megillah then its just the little deatils that we are fuzzy on.first, governors, as well as presidents and senators do many different things while in office. they will juggle different tasks over any given time..thats their job and what they have been elected to do..hence foreign policy and what goes on in our country. sometimes they even have people (a cabinet) to assist them. so they can still campaign and do their jobs. this has been going on since washington was running for pres. its accepted. its the norm. its ok.second-if one is to run for president or higher office, you need history, not just money backing you up. you need experience and you to NOT QUIT your job. she was amayor of a small town and the governor for less than half the term..is she qualified enough? no. had she stayed in alaska as governor would she be qualified? still no. but you cant run for a higher office and be taken seriously if you can competently fulfill your past duties.third--her remark about russia--yes it was twisted, but what made it funny in the first place was not her statement but what her answer was to the question? i beleive it was if she was qualified in foreign policy. and that was her answer..that she could see russia from the coast (or house) whatever.last--gore served his time and bowed out respectfully, even though he had every RIGHT to drag the election out in the supreme court. he did it with grace and humility and for the "good of the country" in hindsight...had the "votes" been reversed, we would still be wondering who won. see the Michigan senatorial election results for that. but no, gore did his time and exited politics from that point of view. he now speaks for cash if you will, but he also won a nobel or pulitzer. i dont see Palin getting one of those for her "dead fish" tirade.last lastly-its all about the hypocrisy of her that i dont like--she says shes above taking bribes and kickbacks and wont take people money and we are a proud state, but then she dropped them like a sack of trig palin! for what? who knows. if she had any ounce of integrity, she would say i found a better job, to further my career. since you clowns on the flip side. i'll come back for you in 2012. her lack of explanation is the biggest insult. they deserve better than that.

These are the facts. Times change. Nixon is but one example of this. Perhaps the political climate is different nowadays. But history, like facts, is a stubborn thing.Palin's actions do not count her out, no matter how hard you cling to your ears, shake your fist, and shout "NooOOooOOoo!"

    "this has been going on since washington was running for pres. its accepted. its the norm. its ok."I don't dispute that. I just don't have to like it. That's my opinion. I'm going to stick with it as long as I retain the luxury of having an opinion.

    "governors, as well as presidents and senators do many different things while in office. they will juggle different tasks over any given time..thats their job and what they have been elected to do..hence foreign policy and what goes on in our country. sometimes they even have people (a cabinet) to assist them. so they can still campaign and do their jobs."Were you numbered amongst those who speculated and had subsequent problems with Cheney allegedly running the show for Bush? Whether or not that was the case, it meets your criteria.

    "you need experience and you to NOT QUIT your job. she was amayor of a small town and the governor for less than half the term..is she qualified enough? no. had she stayed in alaska as governor would she be qualified? still no. but you cant run for a higher office and be taken seriously if you can competently fulfill your past duties."But, you see, you're having it both ways here. If she stays, she isn't qualified. If she quits, she isn't qualified. Meanwhile, she has over a decade more administative experience than Obama, who himself had no administative experience at all. And if Alaska just doesn't have the magic population number, then why wasn't Vermont a problem for Howard Dean?

    "third--her remark about russia--yes it was twisted, but what made it funny in the first place was not her statement but what her answer was to the question? i beleive it was if she was qualified in foreign policy. and that was her answer..that she could see russia from the coast (or house) whatever."You're talking about an interview that was 6-hours long, pared down to three 10 minute chunks. Are you aware that we've deployed most of our native missile defense systems to Alaska and perform nearly all the tests from there as well? Some governors are granted higher security clearance for this reason, due to geographical location alone. Hawaii is another example. And again, it should come as no surprise that the media is all too happy to put her in a bad light. I think it's well within the realm of possibility that one line was cherry picked from a much longer answer that spoke about the close vicinity between Russia and the US, which is way closer than most people think once you factor in Alaska's location. Who knows? Maybe she really was having a bad day. It happens. Perhaps I'm willing to grant her too much slack. But I've seen the woman think on her feet very well in other, more pressuring circumstances. She destroyed Biden. But then again, it WAS Biden.

    "last--gore served his time and bowed out respectfully, even though he had every RIGHT to drag the election out in the supreme court. he did it with grace and humility and for the "good of the country" in hindsight..."I recall very long months pressing well into 2001 that only succeeded in dividing the country further. Cries of Bush being selected, not elected, which continue to this day. Meanwhile, you remember that he bowed out gracefully and with humility. That was my recollection of Kerry in 2004. You sure that's not what you meant?

    "had the "votes" been reversed, we would still be wondering who won. see the Michigan senatorial election results for that."Gotta hand it to Franken. At least there's one politician who can admit to being a comedian.

    "gore did his time and exited politics from that point of view. he now speaks for cash if you will, but he also won a nobel or pulitzer."It was a nobel and an oscar (not a pullitzer). The nobel he shares with a cadre of scientists. Half of which have since come forward to recant the science represented in the movie.If it's okay for Gore to earn money in speaking engagements for the "good of the country" in hindsight, as you say, then shouldn't we wait to look back on Palin in hindsight also before judging her?But you're losing my inial point by focusing only on Gore in comparison to Palin. Yeah, I mentioned Gore as an example, but Gore doesn't have a monopoly as a politician that puts themself first. That was my point.

    "its all about the hypocrisy of her that i dont like"And as you read this post, I hope you see a recurring theme here. Cheney runs the country, but it's okay for cabinet members to run things while the main guy is away. Palin is from a small state, but Howard Dean was the man to beat in 2000. Palin needs more experience but she shouldn't have quit to get it and even if she had it she still ain't good enough. Palin said fewer stupid things as a Vice President hopeful than the current Vice President says himself, but only one of them gets a pass. Gore can make all the money he wants, but that selfish bitch better not.It's all about the hypocrisy of the liberals that I dont like.

    D.Vader, "weak and selfish."

    by immortal_fish

    You may not be claiming that this will kill her career, but that's what most people are predicting and on both side of the aisle. Just lookit the TB. Whether this makes her look weak or selfish is subjective stuff. Should she remain "strong" and continue to run up legal costs to the taxpayers? Is someone "selfish" if they honestly believe they can serve more people and do more good by running for higher office? My opinion of the man's politics aside, I think this is what Obama believed when he became a professional campaigner back in 1998. Good for him, but not for her?BTW, speaking of "weak and selfish" I hope you're paying attention to what Obama's doing during his visit with Russia. The US is in a great strategic and technological position. There is no reason at all to engage in talks with them about disarming. And to sweeten the pot by drawing down missile defense systems in Europe will only be extra gravy to Medvedev. Especially if the sacrifice gains us nothing in regard to Iran. But Obama's willing to risk the safety of the country that elected him in order to ingratiate himself with a former enemy. That, to me, makes him look "weak and selfish" only on a much higher magnitude compared with Palin's gig as governor and potential for speech fees that she has yet to collect.

(im paraphrasing). gore had no more business to attend to in DC after Jan 2001 and could do what he wanted. his choice.

    That was an abbreviated callback to what I wrote earlier in that same post. Meaning, that if she quits now, she can get the experience she supposedly "needs" (that Obama for some reason didn’t) sooner, rather than later. Regardless, you people would think that she’d be unqualified whether she did or did not serve out her term.

    Not knowing the details of her legal bills, I thought a lot of it was falling on her. Even so, its just an excuse, the "oh I'm doing this for you," bullshit. "Is someone "selfish" if they honestly believe they can serve more people and do more good by running for higher office?" It is if you still have a job to do.

    “she wouldve spoken up back in the day”She did.

    “and i really dont think CBS wouldve done that, to sway votes.”CBS? The home of Rathergate?BTW, the Russia-Alaska quote occurred during the Gibson interview on ABC.
    “BTW, it wasnt like they were hard questions either..whats your fave color and such”Then we’ll chalk it up to having different interpretations.One that I like to recall is the Couric question about which papers Palin reads. Back turned to Couric, she flippantly said , “All of them,” over her shoulder. The body language said it all for me. Yeah, it wasn’t a hard question, and I remain unsurprised to see how the narrative changed once it had been squeezed through the spin cycle.
    The Gore stuff I’m going to leave alone. Your comment about how the election was “stolen” is all I needed to see. From my perspective, 2000’s Diebold machines are 2008’s ACORN organizations.
    “my point is she doesnt have expreince and quitting your job where you can get said experience is NOT the way to go”You claim she doesn’t have experience, even though she has more administrative experience than the guy currently in the white house. You think she should have stayed in office to “get more experience,” even though in your own words she hasn’t attained any experience from holding said office in the first place.Okay. You simply don’t like the woman and nothing she does will change your mind. I get it. But try to gain a little perspective on this. You are clearly holding one side to an impossible standard while cutting the other side an inordinate amount of slack.

    "when you win the popular vote, you typically win the electoral vote..it should be. otherwise, what is the point?"Indeed, what is the point for having an electoral college in the first place if there is never a chance of someone ever winning the electorals and NOT the popular vote? The 2000 election proved why the electoral college exists. And as in 2008, the people spoke in 2004, finally awarding an elected president with a mandate for the first time since 1988.Rule by judicial fiat is a bitch. It is a fickle thing that won't always work your way.On the other hand, I suspect you're perfectly okay with the various cartoon characters that ACORN registered? What do you think about how Obama bent the primary rules and bussed people in from out of state in order to increase his numbers? Are you aware of the maneuvers Obama made to ensure his rise through Chicago politics?And for what it's worth, I think Limbaugh's "operation chaos" was unethical at best and an exercise in futility at worst, given the outcome.

    "so now 2 news channels did a hatchet job?? seriously???"Absolutely. In my opinion, it's readily transparent and beyond obvious how the full weight of the media rained down on that woman. Again, as I wrote earlier, I have some big problems with Palin (I prefer Romney, you know, the guy that's an asshole simply for being a mormon that isn't named Harry Reid). I like a lot of what she says, but not how she says it, her mannerisms, some of the bad history that I have not yet found reason to disbelieve, etc. But when I see such rampant GroupThink amassing against her, it only gives me further reason to listen to what she has to say. I mean, c'mon. Just scroll up and look at some of the comments people have left here. Is all of it really warranted? ALL of it?Do you think Fox news is capable of anything BUT a hatchet job?

    "she has no executive experince i can tell you that. "Okay, it is evident that you are locked within the box you've made for yourself.You say she should have stayed in office another two years to gain more experience. But that doesn't square with your claim that the previous two years didn't give her any experience. By your count, she'd only be wasting time, so why not quit?Lookit, there's no denying that Gore had more experience than Bush. And if he ran against him in 2000, Kerry could have easily claimed to have more experience than Bush too. I would never deny you these facts.Palin has run a town and a state. These are facts too. I don't care how small it was. That's managing people, costs, budget (not the same as cost), signing bills into law, etc. Even if she ran a clothing store like Harry Truman, that would amount to having more experience running things than Obama has (excluding the last half year of course), since the man has only ever run two things: a campaign and his mouth.

    "people (including me) are looking at politicians PAST records when they vote. i see a good man who has aspirations and wants to do good when i look at obama."I agree that aspiration is something Obama has in abundance. Too much. Yet it amazes me that so many folks are blinded how he is the only savant to somehow manage to deftly navigate thru the corrupt Chicago political tapestry.You've looked into Obama's past records? Like continuing to help obstruct the 2nd ammendment in Chicago? Supporting infanticide? Voting for every war funding bill until he decided to run for president?If Obama is such a good man that wants to do good, why has he allowed his brother to live in squalor on less than $100 a year? Why has he allowed his aunt Zatuni to live in Boston on the government dole?Do you believe that William Ayers was just a guy in Obama's neighborhood? Do you think Obama willfully shut out the hateful words of his pastor for 22 years? Do you believe Saul Alinsky only inspired others to enact positive aka "good" change?

    "palin, i just see a self serving bitch who is only thinking about herself."I've already speculated earlier that you may be right on this point. We'll need hindsight to know for sure, however. Anything at this point requires tea leaves and a crystal ball.

    "would she have done this had she not tasted the fame and glory a few months ago? hell no."Of course not. It would be preposterous for me to disagree with you.Wouldn't it be equally preposterous for me to suggest the same about Obama's signature 2004 convention speech about a unified America that essentially ran counter to Vice Presidential hopeful John Edwards's two Americas speech? Why else would he become a professional campaigner for higher office 10 years running if he had not first tasted fame and glory?

    "she is in it for the money"Sorry, I've misplaced my tarot cards at the moment.

    "she is extremely delusional if she thinks she can come back around 2011 and asks for a nom for not having done a damn thing except quit. "Again, history has proven otherwise. Nixon did it. He can't be the only one either. Just the only one that comes to mind at the moment. Reagan and Clinton had comebacks after losing primaries, but I can't remember if Reagan got out of politics before getting back in. Don't have the energy ATM to look it up. I remember Clinton was still governor.And Palin has done more things than just quit a governorship.

    "once again, the people of alaska deserved an explanation and not a bunch of tired soundbites. they just lost their leader, their voice, whom they voted for and entrusted. she left them high and dry, plain as day."Agreed. I wrote earlier that I think she should have served out her term. She was supposed to be the breakout alternative that would stand against old boy business as usual. And instead, she gave those people more of the usual.I used to think that Obama would be Carter's second term. Ends up it's looking more like Clinton's third term. More of the old boy business as usual.

    "yet, when you go around blabbing about how SHE is above going for the green and wont take federal money and is disinterested in bribes and kickbacks..then she does this??"Me? You must be confusing me with someone else. All I've claimed is that it's too early to do anything but speculate what she's going to do.You really don't see a double standard in your posts, do you?

    And, honestly, thank you too, Six Demon Bag. We disagree, but you have yet to jump ugly. You've given me the audacity of hope that civilized discourse can still sporadically happen on AICN TB.

    SDB, re: "three major networks"

    by immortal_fish

    "NBC, CBS, ans ABC are pretty much even"I agree wholeheartedly."they have way too many sponsers to please and if they swayed one way, then some would be pissed. come on guys, this is basic."What makes you so certain? Hillary's lifelong cheerleader chairs the news at CBS. ABC recently roosted at the white house and did an infomercial for Obama. I wish both CBS and ABC vetted Obama with the same tenacity that they did with Palin.And NBC? Way too tainted by the stench of sister organization MSNBC. Tim Russert was true blue, but you'd never know it from how the man conducted himself. Now we're left with a tenured Brokaw questioning what we know about Obama only a mere several days after he became president elect.Regarding the sponsors and the need for networks to please them, they realize that no matter which way political allegiance swings, they have at least 50% support from the consumer base. Do you think that anyone that advertises on Fox doesn't also advertise on MSNBC?

    i think with Palins stance, the networks came at her seemingly because she was an unknown and EVERYONE wanted to know what her deal was...i mean she was just picked to be VP..they tried to be fair i belive but then Palin started thinking she was smarter than them and that she doesnt have to play by the rules and really doesnt care what they think of her cause shes a fucking maverick! guess what sweetie, you need to fucking care--you need to be humble, you need to be respectful and you need to playa the game..is this right? probably not, but thats the way it is. we just had a president who didnt give 2 shits about the worlds view of the US was and now, im sorry the new president has to clean up the drunken fratboy party. im not really against Palin perse, im against the type she represents i guess. she'll be quick to blame something when it is convenient, namely the media and try to twist shit around. hey, im from texas and i had no problem when bush decided to run for president when he was governor. thats what they do. he did it for a long time (or so it seemed) and had palin served ONE term and then started campaigning, i probably wouldnt be having this post, but she didnt. thats what you do when you move up..you serve a little time and you get promoted hopefully. had obama came out around 1999 and said that he was gonna run for president in 2004, we would be blasting his delusions. but he didnt, he was a state legislator for 7 years and then became a US senator for 3 and then moving on to president. there was always a forward motion..with Palin, it is just stagnant and she thinks its aceeptable cause shes saying it witha smile. i think you are right about reagan though, but he finished his 2 terms and chose not to run again. thats acceptable and noble. he did his job and THEN left, thinking he would run in 1976. you brought up losing primaries, im talking about giving up before you can even lose. ness said it best--never stop fighting til the fight is done
