Sarah Palin Just Won't Go Away



Wow. The latest Sarah Palin interview reminded me of how much I can't stand hearing her voice.

Why won't someone tell her that "also" is not supposed to be used to start a sentence. What am I saying? She uses "also" to end sentences too. I'd rather hear her say, "Um" or how about SILENCE. Silence from Sarah Plain would be great.

At first she claimed the media was discriminating against her because of her gender. Now she says the media treats her harshly because of her class...or lack of. (This is the woman that was interviewed on a farm, while a turkey was being executed behind her. It's ok, right. We should just overlook how unprofessional that all seemed. After all, she tells us why she's there. It was her Thanksgiving duty to "take care of the turkey.")

Please go away. Don't forget to take Joe the Plumber with you.

Counting down to the inauguration...

Is the Campaign Taking a Toll on Senator McCain?

Is the campaign wearing Senator McCain down? Before you answer the question, watch this video and listen to Senator McCain.



This is what Mccain actually said:
"You and I together will confront the $10 trillion debt that the federal government has run up, and balance the federal budget by the end of my term in office. Across this country this is the agenda I've set before my fellow prisoners, and the same standards of clarity and candor must now be applied to my opponent. "



Watch this video. It seems that Senator McCain has a difficult time remembering what he has said in the past.


Could it be that Senator McCain was so tired, he forgot where Spain is located? Did he have a Sarah Palin moment?


Senator McCain forgot how many homes he owned?


McCain's campaign aids in violating this American's right to FREEDOM OF SPEECH.



I don't know about you, but I don't appreciate being called a prisoner by Senator McCain. I also take offense in being referred to as Joe Six Pack by Sarah Palin. As a Christian conservative, I choose not to drink. I find it hard to understand why a man that own 12-13 homes can call another man that owns ONE...an elitist. Another real important issue is knowledge. He's either not aware of Spain's location or their political philosophy or their nation's leader. This is a problem, a really big one...especially since the person that whispered in his ear...Joe Lieberman will not be there to help him. Sarah Palin knows even less.

God help us all...

Should Sarah Palin's Newsweek Cover Take Center Stage During Our Economic Crisis?

Sarah Palin's Newsweek cover

Many conservatives are in an uproar because of Newsweek's cover of Sarah Palin seen here.

Could it be that this is just another tactic to distract the public from the real issues?
America awoke to more horrible economic news, with the announcement of the economic woes of the markets in Russia, UK and Japan. The Federal Reserve decreased interest rates by half a percent. Is this magazine cover newsworthy? The Cover Story in Newsweek The Palin Problem discusses the problem Gov. Palin has had answering questions during the few interviews she's granted. They urge readers to look beyond blind allegiance and look at the whole picture. The article in Newsweek is meant to make one really consider the question, "Could Sarah Palin really run America, if something happened to McCain?" If this person was interviewing for CEO of your corporation, would you hire them? No? Then how could you hire them to run America?

Why are Sarah Palin supporters upset?
According to Andrea Tantoros (Republican media consultant), it was a "slap in the face". She believes that the close up of Sarah Palin on the cover was a mean spirited jab at the vp candidate. She felt the picture should have been airbrushed just like the way it's done for celebrities. Watch the FoxNews clip on Sarah Palin's Newsweek cover.


Is Sarah Palin a celebrity or a politician?
According to Lindsay Lohan, there is a difference. This is what Lindsay Lohan wrote about Sarah Palin on her myspace blog:
Oh, and...Hint Hint Pali Pal- Don't pose for anymore tabloid covers, you're not a celebrity, you're running for office to represent our, your, my COUNTRY!


Didn't McCain's campaign criticize Obama's popularity and "celebrity like audience"?
Here's the ad that McCain's campaign aired criticizing Obama for his "star quality".


It doesn't make sense. The McCain campaign criticizes Obama for his popularity and mocks his celebrity like crowds, on the other hand they are trying to elevate Sarah Palin to cover model status. You can't have it both ways.

Katie Couric Interviews Sarah Palin

Watching Sarah Palin during an interview is like watching a deer paralyzed by the headlights from oncoming traffic. It's gotten to the point where I feel bad for her.

Here's the Sarah Palin/Katie Couric interview. The reporters aren't even asking her difficult questions. Imagine if they were really out to get her.

Don't say I didn't warn you...

The Republican Double Standard

This email was in my inbox today. I don't know who wrote it or where it came from. (If you do, please send me the info. so that I can give proper credit.) I had to share it. I just had this same conversation with a group of people. It doesn't make sense. Read it and see what I mean.

The Republicans have made it all about the spin.

*I'm a little confused. Let me see if I have this straight*.....

If you grow up in Hawaii (isn't that our 5oth state?) raised by your grandparents, you're 'exotic, different.' Grow up in Alaska eating mooseburgers, and shooting/murdering wildlife for sport from an airplane, you are a quintessential American story.


If your name is Barack you couldn't be a regular American. Name your kids Willow, Trig and Track, you're a maverick.

If you graduate from Harvard law School then you are unstable but if you attend 5 different small colleges -including the University of Hawaii! - before graduating, you're well grounded.


If you spend 3 years as a brilliant community organizer, become the first black President of the Harvard Law Review, create a voter registration drive that registers 150,000 new voters, spend 12 years as a Constitutional Law professor, spend 8 years as a State Senator representing a district with over 750,000 people, become chairman of the state Senate's Health and Human Services committee, spend 4 years in the United States Senate representing a state of 13 million people while sponsoring 131 bills and serving on the Foreign Affairs, Environment and Public Works and Veteran's Affairs committees, you don't have any real leadership experience.

If your total resume is: local weather girl, 4 years on the city council and 6 years as the mayor of a town with less than 7,000 people, 20 months as the governor of a state with only 650,000 people, then you're qualified to become the country's second highest ranking executive.

If you have been married to the same woman for 19 years while raising 2 beautiful daughters, all within Protestant churches, you're not a real Christian.


If you cheated on your first wife with a rich heiress, and left your disfigured wife and married the heiress the next month, you're a Christian.

If you advocate the teaching of responsible, age appropriate sex education, including how to help little children escape from sex offenders and child molestors, you are eroding the fiber of society. If , while governor, you staunchly advocate abstinence only, with no other option in sex education in your state's school system while your unwed teen daughter ends up pregnant, you're very responsible.

If your wife is a Harvard graduate lawyer who gave up a position in a prestigious law firm to work for the betterment of her inner city community, then gave that up to raise a family, your family's values don't represent America's. If you're husband is nicknamed 'First Dude', with at least one DWI conviction and no college education, who didn't register to vote until age 25 and once was a member of a group that advocated the secession of Alaska from the USA, your family is extremely admirable.


If you devote your life to making our country a better place for all Americans, not just a privileged few, then you are not for change. But if you are under investigation for getting people fired because they can't get along with your family, then you are a candidate with 'integrity.'

OK, much clearer now.

Ten Celebrities Share Their Views on Sarah Palin

It seems that many people were shocked that Matt Damon shared his opinion about Sarah Palin during an interview. There were people that criticized him and thought that he should not give his opinions so freely. I have news for those that share this sentiment.

This is America. We have this little thing called FREEDOM OF SPEECH.

This post is for those of you that are interested in what celebrities have said or written about Sarah Palin. I've only incuded 10 celebrities on this post. Why? I didn't want the page to take forever to load. (I hate when that happens!)

Let's start with a famous comedian.
Whoopi raised some eyebrows when she blogged about her opinion on Sarah Palin. Here's what she wrote:
Whoopi Goldberg: Sarah Palin 'Is a Very Dangerous Woman'

I was saddened by this woman because I think she has contempt for people who don’t believe as she believes and there’s no discussion and the smile doesn’t help.


Gina Gershon's Sarah Palin parody says it all:
See more Gina Gershon videos at Funny or Die


Paul Resier wrote a piece sharing his opinion on McCain and Palin:
Yeah -- You and Whose Army?
From the few minutes of the GOP convention I could stomach watching, all I could think was that Giuliani and Sarah Palin were doing some big-person, lethal version of "I know you are, but what am I?"


Watch Matt Damon share his opinion on McCain's choice of Sarah Palin as vp.


Watch Pam Anderson share her opinion of Sarah Palin:


Watch Chevy Chase share his opinion on Sarah Palin:

Chevy Chase says "I want her to decimate this woman."


Lindsay Lohan blogs about her opinion on Sarah Palin:
I find it quite interesting that a woman who now is running to be second in command of the United States, only 4 years ago had aspirations to be a television anchor. Which is probably all she is qualified to be... Also interesting that she got her passport in 2006.. And that she is not fond of environmental protection considering she's FOR drilling for oil in some of our protected land.... Well hey, if she wants to drill for oil, she should DO IT IN HER OWN backyard. This really shows me her complete lack of real preparation to become the second most powerful person in this country.


Heart's Nancy Wilson responds to McCain campaign's use of 'Barracuda' at Republican convention

"Sarah Palin's views and values in NO WAY represent us as American women. We ask that our song 'Barracuda' no longer be used to promote her image. The song 'Barracuda' was written in the late 70s as a scathing rant against the soulless, corporate nature of the music business, particularly for women. (The 'barracuda' represented the business.) While Heart did not and would not authorize the use of their song at the RNC, there's irony in Republican strategists' choice to make use of it there."


Robin Williams on the David Letterman makes us laugh about Sarah Palin:


Pink: Sarah Palin 'Hates Women' Pink doesn't think Sarah Palin knows where Iraq is on a map:

"If I were writing a letter to Sarah Palin," Pink told PopEater during her Sessions taping on Thursday, "it would be a lot of whys and hows. Who are you? Do you know? Why do you hate animals? Please point out Iraq on a map ..."

The Truth About the Double Standard Regarding Sarah Palin

It's evident. With the conservatives, the same rules don't apply to everyone.

What did Karl Rove consider "experienced" (before Sarah Palin was selected)?

What did O'Reilly say about teen pregnancy, before Bristol Palin's teen pregnancy was revealed?

What was the GOP's answer to dealing with sexism, when Hillary was the victim?

What did Sarah Palin say about being targeted by the media...when it was happening to Hillary?

Watch the video for the unbelievable truth!

John McCain, Sarah Palin Parody...



This was on Twitter. Thanks fussypants!

Video of Piper Palin Holding 4 Month Old, Explains So Much

As a mother to 7 kids, I would never let any of my 7 yr old kids hold their 4 month old infant sibling. As a mom to a special needs autistic child, I find it alarming. BTW, her special needs blurb was transparent.

That one shot of Piper and Trig explained so much....
