From the NY Times’ McCain Chooses Palin as Running Mate: “In a surprise move, Senator John McCain announced here Friday that he had chosen Gov. Sarah Palin of Alaska as his running mate, shaking up the political world at a time when his campaign has been trying to attract women, especially disaffected supporters of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton.” [Editor's note: I don't know anything about Gov. Palin, but I can tell you that, having taken a Government 101 class in the city of Anchorage, that Alaskan politics is bought and paid for by the oil industry. Do we really need another V.P. with close ties to the oil industry?]

this makes me want to vomit… - she’s obviously only a hot piece of ass for the withered mind of a dying politician to hide behind and create the illusion that this woman is going to have any say in his already planned out presidency… - ugh…
and now… - joe biden is going to have change his game plan… - he’s going to have to treat this puppet like a lady instead of ripping her head off…
mccain paints his dungeon pink with flowers and hello kitty stickers…
yay…
She won because the people in Alaska were sick of the oil connection, she pretty much ran on the ethics reform ticket. She blew up the GOP/Oil connection (from a seat that they gave her) up there and beat Frank Murkowski to become Gov. This is not to say that she didn’t do it to form her own connections but that is an assumption.
She is way right. NRA member for life for Christ sakes although Alaska is one of the states where having a gun is probably needed. Scary.
I think McCain uses dark red paint with little blue balloons. And Dora the explorer stickers.
So much to say and so little time.
1. I want to move to Canada.
2. I’m counting on Kyle to have more hope than me.
3. Never trust you can beat the tricky bastards with a black man when they pull out their ace and it’s a woman with a downsyndrome baby.
4. Everyone in the office now wants my political opinion when I don’t want to talk politics in the office.
5. I don’t like her.
6. My mom & Stepdad (ex-borough mayor of the borough when she was mayor of the town I grew up in) hate her.
7. My dad likes her.
8. I think he does this to drive my mom, now his ex, crazy.
9. You know that girl who would smile to your face, that was super popular in high school and sat on the jock bench and volunteered for homecoming but when and if needed and sometimes even unexpectedly turned on you, aka the bitchy backstabber.
Welcome to Sarah Palin. Good as gold, yet ain’t worth a thing.
(Oh, I’m sure that won’t be well received. But lets put it this way, as an ex-Alaskan by location, I am a gun-toter for life, as most of you know. And I still hate Palin.)
If she is the bitch backstabber she will fit right in. “You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy” then washington and that is both parties.
that dark red paint you speak of is really the blood of the vietnamese people that he had no problem dropping bombs on… - and those little blue balloons? - they’re really little swollen heads of the american people that he plans on choking the life from… - and dora the explorer? - she can explore the back of my hand after i pimp slap her ass and fuck up her little pet monkey…
Hey Justin, as Obama said last night, “Change doesn’t come from Washington. Change comes to Washington.”
Dave there is a lot of blood to spread around from the vietnam war. Last time I checked he didn’t start that war and this is pretty much where I will end on that topic. We have been through this a million times, you think war is bad. We get it.
Kyle if talk is cheap, talk from politicians is free.
Against my better judgement I listened to this shit on NPR this morning. What a fucking zinger, huh? I wish I were in the large well furnished top secret room when the big boys dreamed up this scenario. Although I’m not as funny as Jess here’s my list of the players involved in the script I’m calling “Palin vs the Blacks”
Produced by Ronald Regans corpse
Co-Producer
Rush Limbaugh (after a five day pill binge)
Directed by
Steven Spielberg (of course)
Written by
Bill O’Reilly
With the voice of Dennis Miller
justin… - i’m being sarcastic… - no need to get snooty…
Dave I am snooty. I just did not want to turn this into a 50 post 2-way conversation on vietnam. Biden should be able to take her in debates. This is a prime example of not picking the best person for the country (in the eyes of the GOP) but picking the person that can get you votes. I still think we can take them.
we better be able to or i’ll slit my throat into a bowl of soup and start spooning and spooning and spooning and spooning…
I honestly just got into a arguement with some of the guys at work because they didn’t think Obama was really black and that they were not going to vote for him because his name sounds to close to Osama. I shit you not.
So maybe we will not win. :(
well… - i’m actually under the impression that this mysterious palin has a penis…
Just wanted to say that Saudi Arabia has left OPEC.
That is nuts, talk about cutting their balls off. Looks like someone wants to keep the price of gas down to offset any push for alternative energy.
