Sarah Palin and the White Trailer Trash Myth
By Larry Johnson on September 2, 2008 at 4:11 PM in Current Affairs
If the Obama Bin Biden campaign managers are participating in anyway in the current media feeding frenzy then they are likely to rue that decision. If they are not, they better figure out a way to destroy the canvass the media and some pundits are painting of Sarah Palin. The bar is being lowered in such a dramatic fashion that if Sarah Palin can walk, smile, and talk in complete sentences without crying she will triumph. The folks busy trying to portray her as a northern version of the Elly May Clampett beware. You’ve set the expectations at a level that most folks will expect Palin to appear before the Republican Convention wearing a bearskin, toothless, breast feeding her baby and unable to speak without drooling on herself. Richard Roper reportedly referred to her as Ted Nugent with a vagina. Well, isn’t that special.
But what happens when she stands before thousands of convention goers and millions of viewers and turns out to be funny, normal, and blessed with an enormous amount of common sense? Oh, oh. No question there is alot riding on her speech. She could bomb and that would torpedo McCain. Game over. But if she does not bomb, it is likely a game changer. The questions swirling around her and her family will only gin up more interest in her and what she has to say.
Do you remember Dan Quayle’s initial appearance with George H.W. Bush? Are you familiar with the expression, “don’t act like it is your first time in the end zone?” Well, Quayle acted like it was his very first time. He was so excited and so enthusiastic that he looked like a winner of the Publisher’s Clearing House Sweepstakes. He came across as a lightweight.
Palin certainly did not remind anyone of Quayle during her first appearance. She correctly projected the attitude of someone pleased to be asked to do the job, but also came across as a serious person. Go ahead. Underestimate her. Make fun of her. And attack her children. Her ability to take on and defeat the Republican old boys club in Alaska should be a warning to the Democrats and Obama fawning pundits, who are making fun of her small town roots and common sense. She is not afraid to fight battles that most seasoned politicians run from. And she does not fight for a tie. She won. Palin comes from a land where mother bears watching over their young can be extremely dangerous. You don’t want to cross them. And judging from Palin’s past, I think the same warning is warranted.

This is a big opportunity for her, a lot of pressure. I’m rooting for her.
She had me when she came out and asked for my vote.
When has Barry and Biden ever actually done that? They ASSUME you will just fall in line and vote for them.
I’m a supporter now also.
Go Sarah!!
McCain/Palin
I just called the McCain campaign to express my support for Sarah.
The woman who answered the phone was appreciative of my comments. Nobody sounded panicked, or defensive, or anything out of the ordinary. The McCain website has all the convention events featured – business as usual.
I told the woman at McCain HQ that we were all looking forward to Gov. Palin’s speech tomorrow night.
She answered the phone: “Country First, McCain 2008″.
She did not fear the Republican Machine in Alaska so I expect her to do very well on the national stage. I highly doubt that McCain would have taken her on otherwise.
Oh come on! How is someone like Sarah going to screw up? But it’s true: that could be the reason for this unparalleled media blitz against her and her family.
The OBots have been working on her since they caught their breath after the announcement. It took them a few hours but then they came up with a viral email from a ‘college friend’ (which I will cut ‘n’ paste below), for the record. Bottom line, tho, it’s classic
Rovian crapI mean Axelrodian crap (Is that a word?)(BTW, this is a long email diatribe so you can skip over it if you like.)
And just fyi, this came from an email owned by (per WhoIs)
Scharf, Vern
3700 Gross Road
Santa Cruz, CA 95062
All of the versions I have received did not include the so-called ‘original’ email to check for headers and URL’s.
And of course, it’s clearly a venomous OBot ploy.
I hear talk now about rejecting Obama but supporting “wonderful” downticket Dems. If they support the caucus thieving candidacy THEY ARE ALL BASTARDS.
To go wobbly on this point supports Obama’s impostures.
THEY ARE ALL BASTARDS.
The deafening silence of Democrats speaking out against the shit being said about Palin cinched it for me. Straight Republican ticket. In Ohio.
Ditto for me in PA
Yes, And I am one of those 18million cracks and I want to see the light above this friggin’ ceiling before I die.
Beautiful.
Me too!
yep, the Dems have shown time and time agan, they are spineless wimps.
Boxer Mum -
are you in PHilly metro?
I wouldn’t vote for Oblockhead and he parted the Democrats, no mean feat.
Ditto for me and my partner in Illinois. We are marking the days off the calender until early voting.
You make a good point. I decided some time back to vote for McCain, but had intended to still vote for any downticket Dems that had not in any way dissed Hillary. But to see them all standing silent while Palin and her children are being attacked like this (just as most of them stood silent while the same was being done to Hillary) means I will start seriously considering voting against all Dems.
they’re runnin’ scared, not one Democrat is getting my vote in November-NOT ONE.
Ditto, Wodiej. It is unbelievable how I have come to despise the Democratic Party but Bill & Hillary still owns my heart and mind.
Since the managers and pundits have spent months setting up and repeating sexist slander against Senator Clinton I can’t see them being able to put the mental brakes on in time for Governor Palin.
It may be uncharitable of me, but I prefer that they don’t until the damage (to themselves) is done.
i dont think her daughter is helping her situation though. i hope she does well and the focus can be on her.
What would you like her daughter to do? Disappear?
just try to be a good person from now on and start doing the right thing. thats all.
Who decides what “good person” is what the “right thing” is …. YOU?
when your a good person its obvious and you dont have to ask………..does that answer your question?
Sure. You’re a judgmental narrow minded twerp.
if she helps obama win. that is NOT the right thing to do. if she helps her mom lose, that is NOT the right thing to do. at least that you can understand. forgive me for being pissed off about somebody choosing to ruin her own mothers life and possibly the country…for what?
ROFLMAO! You are not even a convincing church lady!
Sorry but your whole line of thread here is bullshit. She isn’t ruining anything for her mother. Grow the fuck up before you say such a stupid thing.
Any moron who thinks that what Sarah Palin’s daughter did is such a big deal can take a flying leap to lala land because that’s about the worth of your political accumen.
There are much more important things to look at than this. And her daughter isn’t “helping” or “hurting” anything. Nosey assholes are the problem, not where they stick their noses. This is a kid you’re talking about.
If Palin tanks her chances, it will be her doing it, not her child.
“just try to be a good person from now on and start doing the right thing”
Why don’t you do that by shutting your fucking mouth about others. “GOOD PERSON”..how do you know she isn’t a good person?
the problem is that this is exactly what the Obama supporters are saying. I haven’t been to Taylor Marsh’s site in a long time. Not since she stopped supporting Hillary. The posts are so vile, I’m glad to have left and will not be going back.
The Obots are measuring how many voters are Dems and how many are Reps saying that the Reps lost 1.4M voters and the Dems gained 200,000. They believe that there are more Dem voters that Rep voters and the Dems will win. PUMA is not one of their favorite groups.
I’m biding my time until November when I will vote McCain/Palin.
You can’t predict how an election will go based on registration, what morons. Oh well, let them dream, they are good at that as we know.
The daughter should not even be a topic. This is a person’s life we are talking about and she should be free to make her own decisions without pressure from vile creeps without decency.
Why don’t you just come right out and say that you think Bristol Palin is dragging her mother down by being a slut. That’s what you are thinking.
What a disgusting person you are. How many other mother’s do you think have had their lives ruined by stupid decisions on the part of their children?
Your hatred bleeds through. Pissed off? You have no right to be pissed off. Bristol Palin is not YOUR child. If you had any class you would pray for this family to have the strength to become closer in time of adversity. Not be pissed off.
anybody that has sex under AT LEAST 18 is a bad person. that is well known. now, add on the fact that you can ruin your mothers hard earned accomplishments that she had to fight hard for while raising you just for you to do this to her…well taht just proves what i said earlier.waiting ultil marriage seems to be a sin in your eyes…i wonder why you are such an angry person.
sorry i am too busy praying for this country that obama doesnt get elected.
I had sex when I was 12. Most Chileans have sex by then and marry by 14. Anybody from the US talking about sex is full of shit. Literally.
YOU ARE THE NASTIEST PERSON WHO HAS EVER LIVED. IF I EVER SEEN A PERSON THAT DID THHAT I WOULD HAVE TO BATH IN A POOL OF ANTIBACTERIAL YOU MISERABLE LOSER. DONT EVER ADRESS ME AGAIN YOU ARE NOT FIT TO BREATH THE SAME AIR AS SOMEONE LIKE ME!!!
SOap Please!! Geez
i just remembered chile is the #1 superpower of the world. #1 for education. well known for its many many advancments to society. most known for its medical and mathmatical achievments and every country in the world wants to be like chile. i wake up every day and think how can i make this country more like chile.
OMG, you are hateful and out of touch. Are you SURE you don’t support Ofraudma?
He tends to attract the not having sex crowd.
You’re joking, right? Having sex before 18 makes someone bad? Who made you the authority of this, and in which century do you live?
look at the facts look at the studys. they all show that the people that wait till at least 18 have far better lives. lasting and meaningful relationships, higher income, consider themselves happy, less likely criminals …
everything goes hand in hand
OMG
are you sure you aren’t dana carvey impersonating The Church Lady?
you sure do sound a lot like her,
except, she was funny.
What an idiot you are — OMG.
It wasn’t so long ago that girls married young — pioneer women found husbands for their girls. Check the genealogy of the 1900s and last century.
My grandmother married a 14 and this was typical for the midwest and the whole era. As soon as a girl started showing an interest in boys — bam — she was married off. Of course birth control was outlawed by the male chauvinist pigs who were running America.
The stupidity that the Soetorobots are showing on SEX — and babies is really like turning on the lights in one of Rezko’s slum buildings and all the cockroaches run for cover.
You Bots are being exposed as misogynistic cockroach SLUGS.
This will not be forgotten — women have a very long memory. We still remember what Biden did to Anita Hill.
wow are you telling me that if we all lose our morals we can go back to the pioneer life style…hey do i get to own a slave too!! yes!!
I’m saying mother is dragging Bristol down by not suggesting an early term abortion.
What has this child got to look forward to? Stinky diapers and an abusive, resentful husband.
These “shotgun marriages” always end in divorce.
Don’t be silly. That’s a baseless generalization. Many couples marry because of unplanned pregnancy and do just fine. Sometimes people are actually in love. Birth control fails. No one volunteers for that set of circumstances but please don’t put it in a little box with such narrow parameters.
BTW, I don’t want to see any grandchild of mine aborted either and I am pro-choice from the stand point that it’s none of my business but I’d like to see more societal support for women who want to keep their children rather than abort or place for adoption.
Horseshit.
Mine didn’t.
And the unfortunate intrauterine graffitti developed into a National Merit Scholar and a female full Commander in the USN.
Fuck you, you idiot.
I got pregnant out of wedlock. Not in my planning. I have a beautiful 21 yearold daughter, who has graduated from college.
Her father and I married when she was 6 months old. We have a happy healthy marriage. It isn’t easy but it has been a magnificent ride. Just because you hate what women are best at doesn’t mean we all do.
Pro choice means the right to choose life.
OMG……that’s what I say to you, OMG, now we’re to believe this young girl is destroying the country? HUH?
Choosing to ruin her mother’s life? What kind of clap trap is that? I bet at the moment she was having sex with her boyfriend the last thing on her mind was ruining her mother’s life. At the time she didn’t even know her mother would be McCain’s pock for VP. You are making no sense. You are either naive as sin or dumber as sheet.
thats exactly my point at the moment she was having sex she was not thinking about her mother and doing the right thing.
Pfft. You are exactly the type of character that I’ve gone thru my adult life, after having given birth OUT OF WEDLOCK at a TENDER YOUNG AGE, thumping OUT of my way as I forged forward to make my positive contribution to society.
Absolutely NO time to concern myself with attitudes such yours. I’ve got things to do, places to go and people to vote for so I can make ANOTHER positive contribution to society.
Now outta my way as I move on to cast my vote for McCain/Palin.
I know I’m sure not thinking about my mother when I have sex. Never was, thank God.
well i am looking forward to seeing Levi at his MIL to be acceptance sppech he flew out from Alaska today to meet up with the whole family…
I expect you think he should walk round with a paper bag on his head…
actually this family all seem attractive can you imagain how cute the baby will be..
Bless Bristol and her boyfriend!!
“speech”
Hope, thanks for the laugh!
Wow, you are very judgemental. She is a lovely young woman. This has happened to many lovely young women. At least it is open and honest. In the 40’s and 50’s, girls were sent off to recover from “polio” and forced to put their babies up for adoption. I had a friend in high school and a friend in college (this girl was in high school at the time) whose parents forced both of them to have abortions so they would not “embarrass” their upper middle class families. How sad is that? Yet, this is a wonderful family that accepts, loves and supports all of their children.
Oh please. Probably Kevin hearts pumas in his churchlady gettup.
i am actually a girl. and im not a churchlady. i am just a person who would NEVER do what this “person” did. i find it discusting and sad what it is doing to her poor mother who did not choose this. why do you have to defend bristnells to defend her mother? they are not the same person.
good does not = bad
sarah does not = bristnells
i am just a person who would NEVER do what this “person” did.
good luck with that.
life happens, even to the most sanctimonious of us.
i am just a person who would NEVER do what this “person” did.
good luck with that. life happens, even to the most sanctimonious of us. btw, she is a person, not a “person.”
Then why are you even on this board? Children should be going to school, doing homework, playing with other girls. Not hanging around talking to adults about adult issues! Where are your parents and why aren’t they watching you?
LOL and girl’s/boy’s have NO clue
None~ because MOST opinions DEMAND some historical proof or reference and if you are too young to remember or question things as they come up OVER and OVER again – well what GOOD ARE YOU?
otherwise you are just some pissy whinny baby that just doesn’t GET IT
example – Obamabots
“i am just a person who would NEVER do what this “person” did. i find it discusting and sad what it is doing to her poor mother who did not choose this. why do you have to defend bristnells to defend her mother? they are not the same person.”
Utter horse shit. This is a child and she didn’t do anything to her mother. You want to attack a child, then you can expect me and any other GOOD PERSON to give you fucking hell.
I have to defend this child out of principle. You have a problem to state about it, then state it, but right now, you’re just a fucking idiot slamming on a kid.
Good does not Equal Bad? What the hell sort of logic are you trying to play here?
Logical and rational does not = OMG
(my logic prof is going to kill himself for my basic equation there, but damn…)
YOU are slamming a kid right now! a kid that does the right thing ALL THE TIME!! especially if it would effect my own mother, that is a no brainer unless i was 100% heartless.
Does your mother know that you’re doing this? I have two kids at home that about Palin’s children’s ages, and they are not even reading any of these blogs. They’re not allowed to.
And I’m the reason my parents got married–53 years ago. And they’re still married (guess they didn’t read the stats on that). Statistics can be skewed to reflect the views of the person conducting the research. That’s Stats101, which you take in College. Please learn to question.
Now, get offline, and go be a kid. And put your mother on.
“YOU are slamming a kid right now! a kid that does the right thing ALL THE TIME!!”
You don’t do the right thing ALL THE TIME. You jumped up here and jumped to a conclusion that Bristal Palin was a bad person based on being pregant. That makes “pregnant” bad, or getting pregant bad, and bad enough to be a bad person.
Good people become pregnant all the time, are they suddenly bad for doing so?
Young people who love each other engage in sex and sometimes she gets pregnant. Did she run away and hide? apparently not. Did she and the boy bail on each other? apparently not.
So what did she do Bad?
And as for “I’m a kid”. Look, if you want to come engage in an adult conversation and cast aspersions on total strangers, then you had best learn a hard lesson. What you put out there comes back. You are casting judgments and you are getting judged right back for doing it.
So learn a valuable lesson, you reap what you sow.
And your attitude of righteousness on Ms. Palin is worthy of scorn. And I don’t believe it ruins your mother’s life. It is your doing, only your doing, and only assigned to your moniker, OMG.
You wouldn’t have sex? Fine but lots of teens have sex and sometimes accidents happen. It’s not the accident but how you handle it that’s important.
This young lady and her family seem to be doing a damn fine job of it, not that it’s any of our business.
lots of teens end up poor and alone too…hey i think i am on to something here…
you dont accidentaly have sex. you accidently leave the coffee on or put your shirt on backward….thats an accident i never made…god people.
you don’t accidentally leave the coffee on or accidentally put your shirt on backwards.
And yes, accidents have happened in sex. I know people who had kids that only happened because the birth control failed, and they were intentionally working to prevent them. They lovingly had their children, but yes…accidents happened.
Why are you so banking on the need to make Bristal Palin on moral trial here? She’s not running for anything. If you have issues with teen pregnancy, go see your therapist about your personal issues and avoid the condemnation of others for getting pregnant. It does nothing to serve society or that person to have you yapping away on a blog about it.
i think omg you are a troll dressed up in faux religeon in order to try and throw the discussion. the dems are so into being repub lite that they would be doing the same thing no matter who mccain chose. i for one hope the repub slime machines go after obambi with a vengenance. i am sick to death of him.
i am just a person who would NEVER do what this “person” did.
Is that by choice, or lack of being chosen?
OMG is, I think, slated to grow into what is known in MLB as a, “Slump Buster.”
OMG, Sarah is just fine and her daughter will be as well. This is not a nuclear attack. They’ll have a quiet wedding and everyone will find that this family does have core values that they live by.
My dear, life doesn’t come without complications, wrapped up with a pretty ribbon around it.
you said it a girl when you become a woman I am sure you will grow up.
It’s amazing how you think at girl level to woman level..
It is a lot different I guess you may frighten yourself..
ONG = Miss Perfect here. Most of us are just fallible humans trying to get along. Must take up lots of enbergy being perfect all the time.
Sarah Palin is scaring the crap out of more than just Obama. The crooks are all probably running for cover and willing to destroy a 17 year old kid to do it.
So how did that person on KOS manage to get all those pics of Palin within days of her nomination? Could the Obama camp have gotten an assist from some of the cronies Sarah brought down in Alaska?
“So how did that person on KOS manage to get all those pics of Palin within days of her nomination?”
I got an email today informing me that MoveOn.org has sent “troops” to Alaska to “dig out the dirt on Palin’s husband and everyone else in her family”.
What kind of scum are they, the MoveOn.org crowd. Maybe they will find out that Todd Palin’s great-great-great uncle had a child with an Eskimo woman.
This is sickening.
Moveon.org should go and investigate Obama’s dirt in Chicago. That’s the primary reason I am not voting for him, and will leave a lifelong Democratic voting record.
todd is part eskimo. go todd. I’m voting for palin and yea that guy running with her
Report from HillBuzz:
“Today, the SoetorObama campaign, working with Alaskan Democrats, released opposition research files on Sarah Palin containing her social security number, phone numbers, and other vital information.”
Obama should never have released the hounds. He can’t control them and now he can’t call them back.
she is, she’s marrying the child’s father.
I think Sarah Palin will do just fine when she speaks. She’s tough.
Actually, after seeing a pic of the hunky hockey boy who is Bristol’s baby-daddy, I think she was doing exactly the RIGHT thing…
mmm-hmmm
dag, how many Morality Cops do we have to endure today?
and after seeing his myspace that says “i dont want kids” and “i am a FUCKING REDNECK” i think she made the right choice too. no class goes with no class!!
Here we go again, a young girl posting an opinion, and adults getting bent out of shape calling her names and belittling her for having a different opinion of morality. What is it with you people?
While it is human to screw up, I think the majority of us can agree Bristol did a screw up, having sex with an apparent loser and getting knocked up. The difference of opinion is if it will affect the election.
I think we can agree it should not affect the election. That doesn’t mean it won’t. While we won’t change our choice there may be some fence sitters who do. You may not like it but that’s reality.
OMG just made a statement that she hopes it doesn’t, and voiced an opinion that Bristol didn’t really think about her mom’s place in politics and didn’t set a great example. Maybe she did and it was rebellion, maybe she was date raped and doesn’t want to admit it, or maybe she thought she was ready to have a family (having one when I was older I can say it is never easy).
Many of us, especially those who have been around a while, have screwed up royally in their life, maybe a few times. I know I have. But to condemn a young girl who is trying to live a moral life is just mean.
Bristol will have her baby. Maybe she will be happy, maybe not. McCain will beat Obama and become caretaker until we can elect someone who can really run the country in Hillary. OMG will lead her life as she sees fit and hopefully the rest of us can appreciate that and hope it inspires us just a little to try to be a bit nicer.
and good person and what does that entailmay i ask… I guess as not as bad as you here voicing whats right and what is wrong…
I guess one day you will do the right thing?? I suggest you start today thats all….
I at least try to do the right thing. Too bad you can’t tell the difference.
I suggest if she is just a girl she does what I would hope her mother has spoken to her about, be careful where you post on the internet. Keep out of chat rooms and blogs this is not really where a young girl needs to post.
and as I was told as a child children should be seen and not heard…
Don’t tell me you’re back. Did they leave the cage unlocked again? We don’t need to hear any more of your sob sister blurbs about the damage Sarah Palin and her daughter hve done to America’s reputation with our great European nations. Put a sock in it before you even start. You gave me a headache yesterday and I’m all out of aspirin.
I don’t think our European neighbors will worry too much. This does not faze them. It’s the political strength and savvy for the good of the country that’s important. Denmarks Crown Prince married an unwed mother.
I think that all Sarah Palin needs is the “Rosetta Stone” version of foreign policy, and Joe Biden better run for the hills. She seems to me like someone who could very well “go for the throat” of someone who gets in her way. I can’t wait to see all of this unfold.
me too…the goose stepping Bots think they have something to be afraid of now…hahahaha, they have NO IDEA.

Joe Biden’s “record” on foreign policy matters is nothing to be worried about.
He assured the world in the early 1980s that aggressively confronting the Soviets as Ronald Reagan was planning to do would only strengthen them and make them even more difficult to deal with. He was in favor of continuing Jimmy Carter’s failed policy of “detente”.
When Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait in 1991, he opposed efforts to oust Saddam by force, arguing that we could negotiate with him instead.
When things got tough in Iraq in 2004, he advocated a unilateral US withdrawl to be accompanied by dividing Iraq up into three pieces, one of which would have become a de facto province of Iran, another which would have been dominated by Al-Qaeda, and the third which would have probably ended up provoking a war with Turkey. Great plan, Joe.
He’s an idiot and an abrasive asshole to boot. Palin will eat his lunch.
amen!
i would go further and propose that Obama himself is freaking out just by the existence of Sarah Palin… she so outclasses him and he knows it that he made the recent hilarious statement about him having more executive experience than her…
if Obama was confident and secure in his role as presidential candidate he would have left Palin to his VP to deal with…
it also must be driving Obama crazy that the whole world has gone wild and fallen in love with Palin…

Sarah Palin and the White Trailer Trash Myth
If the Obama Bin Biden campaign managers are participating in anyway in the current media feeding frenzy then they are likely to rue that decision. If they are not, they better figure out a way to destroy the canvass the media and some pundits are pain…
I hope she rips them to shreds.
All we heard in the primaries was that the attacks on Hillary Clinton were not due to sexism, but because it was Hillary Clinton.
That excuse has shown to be bullshit. I am sick and tired of watching the media attack a woman running for office just because she’s a woman. There’s no denying this fact this time. Enough already.
I’ve been reluctant to vote for McCain, but now he has my enthusiastic vote. These people need to be sent a clear message that this disgusting behavior can not be tolerated in our country. We cry and scream over how women in Muslim nations are treated. I’m sorry, but we don’t seem to be that much better to the point where we can assume moral superiority.
McCain/Palin
MSNBC interview with Newt Gingrich. Gingrich asked about Palin’s qualifications and proceeds to rip Ron Allen a new one. When he asks Allen what Obama’s ever done in comparison to Palin, the look on Allen’s face is priceless. The short video has been pulled from YouTube but is available here:
http://newsbusters.org/blogs/noel-sheppard/2008/09/03/gingrich-slams-msnbcs-allen-concerning-palins-qualifications
I’ve had it. I want the entirety of the republican convention to be ALL OUT attacks on Obama and Biden.
I am not kidding. I have had it with being nice. The democrats attacked McCain in Denver, and now the republicans need to go all out. ALL OUT.
Palin’s speech will be fine. McCain’s speech will be fine.
I am looking forward to the other speeches, like Guiliani’s because I know he will have a hard-core case against Obama.
Versus Matthews’ HARDON for 0bama
The attacks on Sarah Palin (and McCain) have been steady for a few days.
If this republican convention doesn’t put the smackdown on Obama/ Biden, I will lose respect for everyone involved.
They need to rock them.
And, Mr. Johnson, here’s a clear picture of the job she has had to do as governor — remember Obama saying managing his campaign was a big job with a bigger budget than the town of Wasilla’s budget?
And why would Obama not mention the millions he managed for the Annenberg Challenge?
(Larry, I imagine you like books about intelligence ops. There’s a new one out about Roald Dahl, the guy who wrote Willie Wonka.

He was a paid Casanova by the British Government, and his job was to infiltrate the American power structure using his masculine wiles.)
Shh, we aren’t suppose to talk about that.
That hack couldn’t even run a lousy foundation without losing money.
No for O…
would that be losing money…
or “losing” money?
i mean, thatsa lotta moolah to boneheadedly” misplace”.
well she certainly doesn’t sound like god-fearing trailer trash.
uh oh. wait a minute…
apparenly God want us in Iraq.
You are a misogynist asshole pig.
thank you for proving my point. she’s on tape saying the Iraq is a “task from god”, yet it’s sexist to point that out. if Obama and/or Biden said something like this, you would be all over their ass.

But it’s OK that Obama wants us to believe that he’s “the one” we’ve been waiting for ?
I prayed for those in the path of Gustav. Do you think HuffPuff will sling me up for that?
yes we prayed and Obama SC super delegates laughed about a hurricane hitting New Orleans. Guess God loves the Republicans and the Gulf Coast. Gustov fizzled.
y’all misunderstood what she was saying. When people in leadership positions make decisions which affect us all seriously, sometimes, when we cannot do anything about it all that is left is to pray that the decisionmakers got some guidance from above and that it should be a divinely guided task. I have prayed many times that the decisions I’ve made be guided by the universe for the good of all.
Oh the humanity!
She is in a church….speaking about God!
In a state with a lot of military families!
When will the Gov and CIC of Alaska stop being supportive of military families who worship?
LOL…
If she views that Iraqi/Auchi Food for Oil programs needed to be stopped. And it is a task from God. Then more power to her.
If Obama wants to sit in a racist church for 20 years that views white people as the enemy. While he helps people who profit from other’s misery such as Auchi and Rezko.
Then more power to him.
Ya see…I actually respect the Constitution and freedom of religion.
You are a F**ktard! Quoting the shitting post? I’ll take the National Enquirer over that rag anyday.
maybe if you would have clicked the link, you would see that there’s a video of her saying it. your ignorance isn’t my problem.
No one disputes the validity of what you say. Only the fk-trons that read the Huff Po would think this was damning. Most of America thinks people can believe in God, if they like.
You’re so full of shit, so now no one running for office is allowed to mention God?
The Obamessiah is a jealous god.
“so now no one running for office is allowed to mention God?”
I’d be very happy about that. I almost threw up after each time I saw a “prayer” at the DNC. I don’t like god and politics mixed, under any circumstance. A people can be godly together just fine, and have learned to tolerate the benedictions because the majority share a common belief in God. If there is a national tragedy, then meet in your national churches when you want to repent, forgive, and have community. When the president does it, I’m not so sure.
The problem arises when the religious tributaries split in mouths of the speakers who give those prayers. Inevitably one version of the God story prevails over the others. Yes, platitudes towards Islam are now growing as America begins to hit adolescence its religious tolerance growth. But there are so many views of God in our own culture that it will alienate someone. Listen in and you’ll mostly hear a narrow Christian prayer that can become pedantic if you aren’t one.
I’m no atheist. I am actually at the greatest chasm when it comes to atheists. But as an arrogant spiritualist I do think the majority of the voices I hear on God via TV and radio are whackjobs and filled with a bullshit save everyone trip that is more from the mid1800’s than the teaching of their lord. Jesus taught very different than what I see on TV, or the judgmental sickos like Falwell, Robertson, Tilton, Swaggard, and more.
Palin’s beliefs do not scare me. Its been reported that she has worked towards preventing green house gases in her state, which seems to me to be an allied goal we have. I don’t want to be a political bigot and simply dismiss her because she’s an “evangelical” or even more, that she’s an Assembly of God member. That is the church I got thrown out of the most…just for asking questions. But it doesn’t make all the members assholes because that one couldn’t take some fundamental questions.
My sense of supporting women as equals started because of a religious argument I had with a minister at a young age. I asked why the Timothy 2:8-15, seemed to dismissive and controlling of women. It was blah blahed away by the pastor guy, but in effect it was a cardinal law somehow. Its the verse that many were using to subjegate the women in the church. Paul says it, so make it so.
Nobody really taught me that Jesus didn’t say this, or God didn’t say this, just some guy who didn’t even personally know Jesus wrote it down in a letter…PST, Hey Timothy, tell the women to shut up and be humble will ya! said the Apostile formerly known as Saul.
And there are countless other examples where conflicting interpretations of intent go on and on. So take that shit out into the hall and lets pass some legislation, arrest some crooked politicians, make sure the infrastructure is sound, and if you want to meet on Friday, Saturday or Sunday to talk God, go for it.
Religion and State should be separate for a reason and the pandering from the Republicans has now worn off on the Democrats.
So here comes Obama and his whole Trinity and St. Sabinas trip to the scene. One part politician, one part preacher guy. Well if I hadn’t really been raised in a better church than that I’d fall for it. But sorry, the sing song speech is just verbose impressions of the great civil rights reverends. Nothing new, as Gil Scott says, It Ain’t No New Thing.
And I expect the Republicans to pander to the religious groups. But I can’t just eliminate someone based on their spiritual beliefs unless I can see them acting on those beliefs when it comes to the greater good or in public office or roles.
Ask Palin about her plan in Iraq. If she goes on and on about God, then let her be cast into the looney bin of history. But my guess is, she isn’t going to describe it that way as a VP candidate. So ask her and see if you don’t get a right of field answer about completing the mission etc.
And I hope those who want to play this game about the religious backgrounds are not from either the McCain camp (with Palin’s pastor talkin and ol Hagee in the background) and Barack (”whose this Rev. Wright character”) Obama.
The debates are coming, so demand answers from them. If they get all whacky on God instead of showing something, it isn’t their religion that bothers me, but their lack of seeing the answer. If they provide the correct answer and then praise Allah for it, fine, give me the correct solution.
let’s see, people who live in trailers won’t vote for Obama, mothers who don’t like seeing children attacked by grown men won’t vote for Obama, fathers who love their daughters won’t vote for Obama, small town, gun-owning, Bible-clinging folk won’t vote for Obama, women who are sick and tired of that glass ceiling won’t vote for Obama, people would believe in fair and honest elections won’t vote for Obama…
Who’s left? OMG and john mcbush. That makes one vote for Obama!
The guy pretending to be sixteen different trolls on this website probably isn’t old enough to vote. But you’re right when you say “one vote for Obama.” It will come from Michelle, because Barack himself will probably once again push the wrong button.
I’m not even sure about Michelle voting for barack, she is a mother after all and can surely relate to Governor Palin!
Actually OMG is for McCain.
I just spoke with a very nice young lady at the Palin campaign headquarters, telling her that as a Democrat, I was disgusted at the misogyny and sexism being thrown at the Governor, and urged the Governor to fight back with everything she’s got (and I do believe she’s got a lot of fight in her!). I told her that not all democrats were as pathetic as Obama and his gang, and that many of us could see what an amazing person Governor Palin is. I don’t know what kind of phone calls they’ve been receiving at the headquarters, but she seemed very relieved and gratified at what I said. If anyone wants to offer their support as well, the phone number is 703.650.5550.
notice how saying anything negative towards a female candidate makes you a misogynist/sexist pig -even if it’s a woman saying it.
those big meanies!
Gee. Questioning the black guy makes you a racist, right?
if Barry and his gang can yell Racist, then women can yell SEXIST…get used to it, this time, they won’t hold back.
so you admit you sound stupid.
Refusing to call a woman by her title is disrespectful. Sarah Palin was elected Governor by a landslide margin and enjoys a high approval rating from her constituents. She should be addressed as Governor not MILF or “that beauty queen” or “PTA mom” or the Mayor.
yeah, cause i’m sure it’s hard to get an 80% approval rating in her little buttfuck town of sub 10,000 citzens. not to mention she put them 20 million in debt. how did that happen?
Alaska is not a town.
(We could compare Illinois to Alaska, but it would be laregly irrelevant because Obama has not accomplished a thing in IL anyway.)
And John, why bother with incorrect punctuation if you haven’t learned capitization yet? Are you in the fourth grade?
That would be the entire state of Alaska.
You sound desperate and you sure are vile. Why not go play at the
ChicagoPolitical Machine at AOL. You will fit right in with Denise Williams. This is the last time I will reply to you, and I hope everyone else can ignore the smell you generate and not feed your ego with replies.hey johnie boy, your screen already says you call people names. so get off your high horse! your hero obambi(yeah i call him names) said iran is just a small country, no problemo and the next days says it is a real problem. so johnie boy, shut up.
YOU SEXIST FUCK!!!!
Thanks for the number. I did call and you are correct about the garbage that they must have to sift through from the OCrap Camp.
I called too….. I could hear the smile on the other end too.
well it will be 10,000 votes that will be going to republicans at a guess…
Lets make sure more Americans see Sarah Palin speech tomorrow than that BArackopolis spectcale last week. We will shatter her into the political campaign with 50 million hits.!!!.
Instea dof 18 million cracks, Sarh wil get 50 million.
Larry,
The dems are way too stupid to take the warning. WE knew the backlash was coming when they went after her and her children. The DNC leadership doesn’t care because they think they have this wrapped up – they took out the Clintons, what is an alaska hockey mom going to do to them.
I’m with you. I don’t know what it is about growing up in a place where you can freeze to death 9 months out of year, it’s make a person tough!
Lets make sure more Americans see Sarah Palin speech tomorrow than that BArackopolis spectcale last week. We will shatter her into the political campaign with 50 million hits.!!!.
Instead of 18 million cracks, Sarah will plunge through the ceiling with 50 million pieces of glass.
Democrats have know idea what it is like hiking on the tundra with a 60 pound pack.
It’s like walking on a mattress and very taxing. I expect I will see Dems wearing bear bells very soon…not that they see the utlility of it.
Having walked into a mama Grizzly in the back end of Wonder Lake…being down wind was the only thing that saved my string.
The same can be said about not giving your oppenent due respect. Lest you underestimate them.
This is where Dems are headed?
So whats it gonna be Dems?
Bobo has already been shot down by Maverick and Miss Sarah and is just lying there, flailing, still reaching for his gun! It’s over, pardner. Might as well just lie still and die peaceful-like.
LOL Mccain’s nightmare just gets worse and worse.

From the TUCC:
A congregation with a non-negotiable COMMITMENT TO AFRICA.
The fact that Barry may have a dual citizenship to include Indonesia, was propped up by Reczko and was endorsed by various islamic leaders, was applauded by 200,000 Germans as a citizen of the world and who will not provide his birth certificate to the MSM is of bigger concern than an American giving a speech in support of one of our 50 states.

yeah well we don’t have Obama on tape saying he’s not a natural citizen. what we do have however, is a tape of Palin praising a group that secede from the US. one can be proven, one can’t.
As I recall, Senate Bill S 147, a bill to give sovereignty to native Hawaiians, is sponsored and cosponsored by some of Obama’s major supporters. Maybe you should find out Obama’s opinion of this bill before condemning Governor Sarah Palin.
Yeah? So what? That’s your “big” scandal of the moment?
There’s been factions in Alaska, since it became a state, to succeed from the Union. I learned a lot about that the 3 years I lived in Fairbanks. I even have a story I get to tell about that concerning a lawyer and jury duty, but that’s neither here nor there. And how many people were in that room? Looks to me like some more juggling of video in a truly pathetic attempt to smear Gov. Palin.
Alaskans are unique, and so is Sarah Palin. Thought that’s what the Barkster was hawkin’ about himself all this time? So, where’s the hopey-changey thingy now? Ooooh, The One has “changed” the hopey-changy schtick and now the merry bands of hope-a-dopes have a new message. Sooooo pathetic. Just what I want in a president, a change a minute…not.
MOAR WRIGHT!

sorry but America’s Wright now. at this point, it’s just reaching.
johnie boy, your imitation of a bot is very good. however that is the only thing you do well, and that isn’t my fault. being an american idol, media believing fool is your fault.
The number posted above, 703.650.5550, is the McCain press office.
I just called it to thank Governor Palin for hanging tough and said I wished her the best.
They were of course very nice.
It cannot be fun to be a campaign on the receiving end of this sort of grotesque media frenzy.
Just imagine the ugly calls they must be getting, so if you can call with kind words, do so. They need to know we appreciate their choice.
Yes, I am a democrat, not voting as one this year however.
I just called the number as well. I asked the woman answering the phone to tell Sarah Palin that she and McCain have my vote. GO McPalin!
Great moment for the Democratic party last night. Two Obama spokesmen saying that Bristol Palin was fair game because “the Republicans are the only ones who tell people how to live their lives, Democrats never do that.”
Democrats, if you stay on that tack for more than a minute, you are going to have your lunch handed to you. There is so much video of so many Democrats, including Barack Obama, telling people how to live their lives that it could run 24/7 until election day and still have some left over.
This is a 17 year old kid, and her home town (and most of America) is saying no big deal, leave her alone. If you persist, the blowback will destroy the party.
you all need to tune into Fox news…they’re getting ready to show a clip of protestors who got out of hand and were met with Republicans…..
I’m wondering if the troll is getting college credits for his work here. Maybe a member of Obama’s civilian army which will be stronger than our military.
I heard that Fred Thompson is going to address the slurs in his speech tonight.
I don’t know if she will bring down the house, but Gov. Palin won’t bomb!
Earlier, I seriously thought that Mc Cain had self-destructed…later I read that his staffers had warned Palin several times about what could come at her…she wanted to tackle the job!
I think she will want to earn Senator McCain’s confidence in her!
The game ain’t over until the buzzer sounds!
Seems like the BO people used the same type of attacks on Hillary Clinton’s voters. “..Oh these Clinton voters are just Trailer Trash..” was the talking points endlessly repeated on all the shows.
Ash_N, Toronto, Canada
It’s like evil is taking over. We need to fight. This past week in Mexico, over 100,000 people demonstrated against the corrupt government. We should demonstrate against our corrupt media.

I think that the posts by OMG and John MCBush are done by the same person. The choice of words and grammar are just about the same.
OMG was on NQ last night with the same dribble, only it went on and on and on. Same garbage about how Governor was a bad mother and that Bristol would ruin Americas reputation with other countrys.
This must be standard training at the Obamabot Camp.
Sorry folks – too much of OMG – I misspelled countrys. Should have been countries.
I’m not voting for B.O. But I’m not about to start cheering
for a mother who thinks it’s great that her 17 year old is
pregnant and getting married.
She says she’ll grow up fast. Why does this woman want
her daughter to go through hell?
If that’s not trailer camp, what is?
Fuck off, asshole.
She’s not YOUR child.
It’s not YOUR uterus.
It’s not YOUR FUCKING BUSINESS!

Its being the mom of teenaged daughter. You can talk to them about everything under the sun. But in the end, they make the decision.
Thats called life.
Larry, Dan Quayle was seen as a light weight because he was a light weight. The man could not even spell potato. His four year as V.P. were a running gag, a keystone cops film. He was a man you would have to check back up on because he would routinely cross-thread the light bulbs he changed out.
Ms. Palin’s roll out has been less than stellar. Weird news follows her around like a swarm of flies around a broken down and ulcerous nag.
It is odd that you would be pinning your hopes on one speech from Ms. Palin. After all Barack Obama’s speeches have failed to move you. Palin is a grade AAA disaster in waiting. She may be a good pol for Alaska but her national credentials are questionable. She is the only pol out there with even fewer Bona Fides than Obama. How the hell did the Republicans manage that? What is the best she can do? Even if she gives a barn-burner of a speech, then what? She still has all those radical right positions she endorses. Any rational Hillary supporter will take one look at her family dynamics and policy positions and say “no way Jose.”
Hillary stands for something, her history matters. That history is 180 degrees opposite of Sara Palin. HRC has thirty years of public service behind her, she was the first lady and is now a second term Senator. HRC has been all around the world, rubbed elbows with friend and foe, and has done the hard work of the Senate Armed Services Committee.
Palin, she was the mayor of a small Alaska town and just became governor of a huge territory with damn few people. Alaska in total has the same population as Little Rock, Arkansas does. Palin probably won’t do a face plant on national T.V. but that is an incredibly low bar to set. We should expect the V.P. nominee to do more than walk and chew gum at the same time.
Some would like to claim that Palin is the equivalent of Barack Obama as far as experience goes. Not nearly, not even close. Get serious; what in Palin’s resume qualifies her to be president? Obama has undergone a sixteen month trial-by-fire that was the Democratic Primary. Just like Hillary he got eighteen million votes. That means that eighteen million voters like what they saw and voted for him. Who has vetted Palin? How many votes did she get for the V.P. slot? That’s right folks one- John McCain’s vote. And what did he just do? In one fell swoop he evaporated his best argument for his election; his experience. Heck of a job Johnny.
Nobody said that Governor Palin could replace Hillary Clinton. Nobody could do that. Hillary is one of a kind but Obama and his crooked caucases and the crooked DNC saw to it that we can’t vote for Hillary. That does not excuse the fact that some of us who love Hillary will vote McCain/Palin.
I think she will do an outstanding job. Remember, she is not running for President but for vice-president. So why all this comparing her to Obama who IS running for president and is sadly lacking in credentials.
Are these the same people who said that Hillary’s WH days didn’t qualify for any “experience”? What a bunch of silly people you all are.
Does anyone remember how the rest of the world responded to Bill Clinton’s indiscretions? They thought it trivial and laughable. They couldn’t believe anyone would care. This situation wouldn’t rate a blip on the scale of public opinion were it not for the Dems greasing the wheels. Mary Cheney got off somewhat easier because Dems are involved with Gay issues. I felt a lot of sympathy when she was outed.
Good grief. How many celebs are out there right now pregnant and unmarried?
Nancy Pelosi has 5 children. Why the hell wasn’t she staying home?
Fascinating you all of sudden love Hillary Clinton. You must also live in the small town of “Head in Ass”
I got it! OMG is a prude Valley Girl on steroids. I thought I’d seen those sorts of posts before.
OMG
Well at a guess I am sure many here are so damn glad they don’t live with you ” WTH” can people breath? You make me feel sick with the holier than though remarks…
I guess your shit don’t stink : RIGHT?
i just remembered chile is the #1 superpower of the world. #1 for education. well known for its many many advancments to society. most known for its medical and mathmatical achievments and every country in the world wants to be like chile. i wake up every day and think how can i make this country more like chile.
YOU DISGUST ME : CLEAR THIS WHITLESS THING OUT OF THIS ISLE JHE INSULTS PEOPLE :
PISS OF WHO THE HELL ARE YOU TO JUDGE??
I GUESS YOUR THE LONLEY ONE HERE WITH YOUR VIEWS YOU WANT TO EXPOSE US ALL TO YOUR LITTLE MIND…
I AMASHAMED TO THINK YOUR A WOMAN… YOU LIVE IN BLACK AND WHITE NO MIDDLE LEVEL WITH U… GUESS YOUR GOING TO BE A LONLEY OLD WAMAN IN TIME..
MY GOD I NEED TO GET OUTTA HERE YOU MAKE ME WANNA SCREAM.
please do
I agree with Larry. The Sarah Palin bashing can really backfire on the Dems.
Look what happened in the Dem primaries. The Clinton Machine atempted to bash Obama into a pulp after Iowa and it backfired on them big time.
Excuse me, but what is it you’re braying about, exactly?
The Clinton Machine atempted to bash Obama into a pulp after Iowa and it backfired on them big time
So you live in the little small town called ” Head in Ass”.
Having a woman to bash again has made the trolls happier than I’ve ever seen them.

Vee have vays of making you TOC.
Like a moth to the flame, this blog is running counter to it’s stated interests.
Ed Rollins, Reagan’s 1984 campaign manager said yesterday on Charlie Rose that:
“I want to hear the VP speak exactly three times:At the introduction, at the acceptance speech and at the debate.”
What you were not taught in spy school is that the focus must be on the Presidential candidate, not the veep.
“What you were not taught in spy school is that the focus must be on the Presidential candidate, not the veep.”
Why would that be taught in spy school? Any one with a half a wit should have been focused on the VP pick in 2000, not the Presidential Candidate. Please, reprocess that thought and repeat the following 1000 times: “I will make sure I vet the VP as much as I vet the lead candidate”
Have you learned nothing from 8 years of Dick “I’ll go find you a VP, well what do ya know? I’m your pick” Cheney?
“Why would that be taught in spy school? Any one with a half a wit should have been focused on the VP pick in 2000″
Everyone WAS focused on Chaney in 2000. He was the old pro that made his bones in the Gulf War that was going to lead the Produgal Son through the wilderness. That is what AOL_TIME_Warner-Viacom-Disney-Newscorp told America to think. Then the dumb shits went on to elect them again after a four year clusterfuck.
Americans also have such short attention spans.
I am developing a begruding respect for Mccain. I’ve always respected him as a human being and I value his service, but I mean now he’s earning my trust as a leader. He knows what he’s doing. This campaign is in good hands. He is lowering the bar on Palin, so people can’t help but be impressed once they get to know her. And he is letting the Obama supporters do what they do, which is to smear people with their “fairy tales.” Everytime these fools in the media attack Palin people become more sympathetic towards her.
Obama already IS Quayle. The spot was taken before Palin got here.
I bet Sarah knows there aren’t 57 states….or that the Great Lakes aren’t in oregon….and that she knows the difference between Sioux City and Sioux Falls………and that she knows that if her uncle were in the navy he couldn’t march into auschwitz with the Russian Army…or that Iran is not a tiny little harmless country….or…
BO and the msm kept going after Hillary to get out of the race after Iowa–it was constant. Now they are doing the same thing to Palin. McCain needs to learn from that by never backing down from his choice. Never. If he does this he will be seen as a tough leader who’s not intimidated. No one stood up for Clinton, they were bullied and threatened by thugs and they caved. But Palin has the Repubs behind her who wrote the book on all of this and she’ll be fine. BO should have stayed home with his kids while Mechelle earned her 300 thousand at the hospital. He could have smoked a little weed on the side and we wouldn’t have to put up with this lowlife as a candidate.
Larry Johnson:
You are one stand-up guy, and ironically, one of the most forceful spokesmen anywhere for ‘women’s rights’, more properly ‘women’s fairness’, MSM and blogosphere included. NOW seems to be AWOL. Keep up the good work.
Straight Down Republican for me….I am sick of this shit the Dems are doing…tell me who in America doesn’t have someone in their family that hasn’t gotten pregnant. Isn’t it time we all voted for someone like us rather than someone who pretends to be one of us. Sarah is a real everyday person I can relate to. Anyone who has kids knows that no matter how good of a parent you are things happen. Why is it Jamie Lynn Spears can grace the cover of all the magazine but the Dems are so quick to down grade Sarah’s daughter. All of us need to stand up against the crap that is going on and say ENOUGH………..McCain and Sarah have all votes from my family..15 votes for the REAL Candidates
It is ironic that the vicious Daily Kos crowd are fixated on 17-year-old Bristol Palin getting pregnant by her 18-year-old boyfriend. They overlook that their Obamessiah is the end result of his 17-year-old mom getting knocked up by bigamist Barack Sr., a Muslim goatherder who already had a wife (Kezia) and two kids back in Kenya.
It’s lucky for Obama that his mom did not consider teenage pregnancy a punishment and thus get an abortion.
I thought I had seen crap file, but the Republicans on this message board really know how to pile it on! The family values crowd that insists that their Bible Thumping view be the law of the land. I think Obama is wrong about closing GITMO.
We need to round up all the crazy Republicans, brand them with R on the forehead and then lead the fat slob of a pill popping radio host Rush who they pray at his altar all be put in GITMO the gate locked and the key given to Michelle Obama, They let her decide if she
is really proud of this country and its haters from the Republican party
McCain stayed in a POW camp for some 5 years, experienced torture and relentless emptiness. He did not leave his fellow prisoners when he could have done so. What do you think are the chances he is going to run out on his VP pick? Besides most Dems and the Obots especially do not understand at all why McCain picked Palin. It has nothing to do with Obama or even attracting PUMAs. McCain picked Palin to secure his base, to recapture his image as the “maverick” Republican and to lay the groundwork to claim the banner of bringing real change to Washington. Getting some women votes along the way is icing. For his base, Palin’s “international experience” is irrelevant. Her executive experience is just enough to be credible. That cured a big problem McCain and the RNC had— plus Palin is now rated by Americans as the #2 person they would like to meet just slightly behind “the one”. I say that is pretty good for the first week on the job. Don’t forget, she is not running for President; she is running for VP. It is not to Obama’s advantage to be running against Palin. The Obama camp is burning up reams of time running him against Palin—he needs to be running against McCain.
“experienced torture and relentless emptiness”
No, the blogsphere did not exist then.
Larry:
Their is White Trash and Trailer Trash. They are not necessarily the same population.
LOTS of (but not all) White Trash live in trailers.
ALL Trailer Trash live in Trailers.
You can tell Trailer Trash because their children are named after “Dynasty” and soap opera characters.
White Trash is comprised of people who earn $1200 per year LESS than you, and/or who, nontheless, have more sexually desirable consorts, faster cars and/or seem to be having a much better time than you.
(see: “Trashy Women,” by Confederate Railroad).
After giving Mcain his dues, no one can explain as to why he was known an outsider and never loved by the Bible Thumping right wing of the Republican party.
He always chose to stand outside the box, but when it came to him running for President he chose to forget all those terrible religious bigots that he despised and now chose Palin to bring them into the fold.
He was in the Senate with a Republican President and both Houses held by the Republicans, what did he do then to stem the flow of corruption?
People talk of Palin cleaning Alaska’s corrupt crowd.
Excuse me they were all REPUBLICANS, so what does it say we need these people for another 4 years.
THINK AGAIN
Go ahead and vote for Oblahblah. My vote will cancel yours. Go to HuffPo where they love your sort of party-first dogma.
Been reading all of these comments. And I love that sense of panic in the air for all Obama haters!!!!!!! McCains’ whole campaign has been experience this, experience that and instead of getting at least a veteran Republican woman that could bring something to the political table, he goes and gets a hockey mom?! Are you kidding me?! That is not sexism or right wing bashing that is the God honest truth. I don’t give a damn how much the left wing media loves Obama, there are absolutely right and all of you morons know it. You bring in a sports broadcaster with five kids, one with Down Syndrome, and a 17 year old daughter who got knocked up by a self proclaimed “redneck” Imagine if this was a woman of color and Obama chose her as his VP, you guys would be laughing your heads off, too. See it doesn’t matter if McCain wins or loses the election now, no one is ever going to take him serious again. As for Palin, I think in the long run she’ll be alright and have some kind of successful political career. I have nothing against the woman personally. But she said with her own mouth that she doesn’t know what a Vice President does and now look. Its not her fault though. Republicans got desperate as hell on this. Been attacking Obama on every level. This is what scares White America the most; a smart, well spoken Black man that has nothing to lose running for president in a mostly White country. And yes some of you are closet racists.Obama/Biden08 Change is coming. I know you’re scared about that. It’s Ok. LOL
Trailer trash! Alochol, sex, drugs. We want more pictures of Palin doing… I hear there may be a tape or two out there, update any one?
Repugnants trashed Hillary in the most obscene ways possible. And you knwo what they did to Obama. Suck it up people, you set the standards.
