WASHINGTON --Slate magazine"The apartment was small, with slanting floors and irregular heat and a buzzer downstairs that didn't work, so that visitors had to call ahead from a pay phone at the corner gas station, where a black Doberman the size of a wolf paced through the night in vigilant patrol, its jaws clamped around an empty beer bottle." Other readers pounced like wolf-size Dobermans on an intruder. One guffawed, "That sentence by Sarah Palin could be entered into the annual Bulwer-Lytton bad writing contest. It could have a chance at winning a (sic) honorable mention, at any rate." But soon, the original contributor confessed: "I probably should have mentioned that the sentence quoted above was not written by Sarah Palin. It's taken from the first paragraph of 'Dreams From My Father,' written by Barack Obama." The ruse should have been allowed to fester longer, but the point was made nonetheless: Some people hate Palin first and ask questions later. My all-time favorite response to John McCain's selection of Palin as his running mate was from Wendy Doniger, a feminist professor of religion at the University of Chicago. Professor Doniger wrote of The best part about that sentence: Doniger uses the pronoun "her"--twice. Just this week, a liberal blogger Indeed, some of us will always be sympathetic to Palin if for nothing else than her enemies. The bile she extracts from her critics is almost like a dye marker, illuminating deep pockets of asininity that heretofore were either unnoticed or underappreciated.
The "liberal" media and that liberal bully Chris Matthews did note how in fact Obama is more and more considered a disappointment of the "independent" voter (docile masses). "Big" disappointment - no. It is a shame but the guy wanted the job. Not really sure if there was a viable solution to the utter mess he inherited. Part of me wished McCain had won, so that it would have really put the death blow to the GOP. Sadly Obama is being blamed for economic and war issues that Bush created.
plays her cards right and Barrack Obama continues to be a big disappointment, she could very well win the presidency in 2012. BO has not kept many of his promses, he's thrown gays, people opposed to the war, and many others under the bus in the name of political expediency. These people got him elected and if he doesn't do better, I suspect that just about anyone could run against him and win. So, I suppose the far left really does have something to fear, but their misogynistic attacks will backfire.
The far left are just peeing their pants about Sarah. They act like they want her to run (so Obama will win-or so they think), but their relentless and vicious attacks really do indicate a real fear. It's just as bad as the Far Right's phobia about Barrack Obama. The bottom line is, this woman's book is flying off the shelves, people are coming out in huge numbers to her book signings and to hear her speak. She has the country's ear and the far left moonbats are furious. The fact is however, if she
hasn't virtually every step she's taken been meant to make
money? Aside from resigning as Governor (How in the world
could anyone EVER vote for her for public office again?),
it's fine with me that she is chasing after money, but there is
a word for that: prostitution. (Yeah, yeah, I know: most
politicians ARE prostitutes nowadays.)
Palin is a real "comedy of errors" (I think). Last year McCain needed a running mate to do two things - attract women or minorities, and to satisfy the extreme right wing (which was accusing McCain of not being conservative enough). To please "the machine" he reluctantly took her. Her only qualifications is she spouts ultra right rhetoric. She has no world knowledge and when she speaks, she reveals that she is rather stupid. Power corrupts (especially the feeble minded). Karl Rove is working her now.
