2. Hardball is focusing on her
speech today and it has me fuming. I swear the GOTV effort in November against these assclowns is going to make their heads spin.

24. I don't understand why MSNBC is following her like a puppy ...
FAUX, I would understand, but MSNBC? I thought they were somewhat rational :shrug:

3. I guess she reinforces both their fears and their fantasies - and I'm not...
...even talking about THOSE fantasies - just the ones about going back to a time when white Christians ruled this country in every way.

4. I'm beginning to believe that most of the right wing is like children
who are trying to annoy the grown ups around them.

I mean, I think they know perfectly well that she makes no sense. She can't even string a proper sentence together. But treating her like a hero just pisses off anyone with any sense and I think they think that's funny.

Or they're just equally dumb. :shrug:

9. Some of them ARE equally dumb! I think some of them
honestly believe in her and what she thinks & says. THAT is very frightening!!!! I believe there are very few of them, and I sure hope I'm right!

I see several obviously dim-witted relatives of mine have joined her Facebook fan group... it scares me that I share a gene pool with someone so dense!

5. I listened to her speech to the Repubs today...Dear God, she is a vacuous twit!
She has absolutely NOTHING to say! She just strings together every cliche she can think of, she's mean-spirited, sarcastic, and her shrill, sing-song delivery makes my skin crawl. I am truly astounded that ANYONE takes her seriously.

That should tell you something about the American voters. I believe it was P. T. Barnum who said that a sucker was born every minute.

I still hang on the hope she will just fade away back into the obscurity she was plucked from.

No, we want no part of an Amercian idiot like that. Almost all Americans are welcome here, but Palin is one of the handful who are not welcome here.

32. We don't see her much around here these days,
The joke is she probably won't even qualify for a Permanent Fund check this year. More for the rest of us. :rofl:

What I'm very curious about is what has happened to Baby Trig. For a while there, he was her constant prop, but I haven't seen him anywhere in the media in quite some time, Has anyone else seen the little guy lately? Is he no longer useful? Is he with his real mother?

38. Is there any flap in your State about daughter Willow and friends
trashing somebody's house in January when the half-governor and half-dude were vacationing in Hawaii? Saw yesterday a gang of 12-15 year olds were being held as criminals for breaking into and partying in a vacant house - except for here on DU no mention of sister sarah's destructive child.
As for Trig, we know he's not getting the special care a Downs child needs, otherwise she'd be talking about it (maybe?). Mothering skills don't appear to be her strength.

41. The talk here about Willow is mostly in the blogs
Edited on Fri Apr-09-10 10:39 PM by Blue_In_AK
The state has so many other real issues going on now -- a lot of cleaning up after her and Murkowski -- that the regular media doesn't really have time to deal with this old history. We heard about the break-in back in January, but it's been kept really quiet. I'm sure strings were pulled.

I don't really fault the kids that much for acting up -- my own girls had their impulsive moments as teenagers (and so did I) -- but I spent time teaching them to be honest and to take responsibility for their actions, not trying to cover up for them all the time to protect my own reputation.


Sarah is being rewarded for bad behavior, for some ungodly reason, and I think it sets a terrible example for her children. She's teaching them that it's okay to lie, manipulate, and work the system for purely selfish and pecuniary reasons -- and all in the name of God, no less. She's teaching them that if you pull a few strings, you can get away with just about anything, arouse crowds to acts of violence, because you're special and human laws don't apply to you. You can be an out-and-out racist and not have to apologize for it.

Why does she think she's so great, and why does the media give her a platform? She is so delusional it hurts, and I can't imagine being one of her children, having to suffer the embarrassment.

26. Thom Hartmann is saying she left Alaska with a debt to assets ratio of 74:1.
And Wasilla was 1 million in debt when she became mayor and 22 million in debt when she left that office.

It is hard to believe anyone listens to her.

43. Stop Confusing Us
with facts. LOL. It is obvious the RW is looking for a Bush replacement and they found one just as dumb. We all forget, people like people they can relate to. That alone should scare everyone enough. That means about 1/3 of our country relates to a blathering idiot.

17. It's simple
She's a woman who some men find attractive, she's a mother, some tout that she was a governor, and some like the fact that she doesn't talk like anyone else who's ever been office. (With the exception of GWB.) She endorses the Tea Party nuts and likes guns.

Well, that's why people in my area like her. The family my brother married into (with the exception of one person) is just CRAZY about her. (My brother thinks she's an absolute idiot.)

and the other Righteous ones would ascend to Power after the destruction of "the lower 48".

30. And what's with the gerunds? She seems to use them to extend
a sentence beyond the point where it deserved a merciful death. She did better in her appearance with Bachmann, when she was following a prepared text; today she regressed to her uniquely dysfunctional sentence structure. It's like Dick Cavett observed--she doesn't seem to have a first language.

33. I think she and Bachmann are linked at the brain which
doesn't help any because between the two of them they don't have 1/100th of one.

She's just a female and media savvy version of Dan Quayle. Fortunately she never made it to the vice presidency.

44. Unfortunately, her base takes her very seriously. This week I heard
excerpts of one of her tirades when she emphasized that she was not advocating violence when using the term 're-load'. She knew exactly where she wanted that term to land: on the vacated, fertile minds of her base. SP is well aware that 're-load' may trigger a dramatic expression in some....sadly, I think she is hoping for such. She's only covering her _ _ _ denouncing violence. Her base got the message out and clear! THAT I take seriously.
