Clueless




More fun stuff from Sarah Palin (who some have called "The Vicious Mrs." )

Someone who former GOP Senator Lincoln Chaffee dismisses as "a cocky whacko."

Though the party is mostly keeping her safely muzzled, Sarah deigned to grant an interview to ABC News, trying to razzle-dazzle Charlie Gibson into thinking she has some sort of major grasp of foreign policy, whilst repeating pre-digested-cud buzzwords about pro-life/pro-war no blinking confidence ready I'm ready I'm ready pick me pick me pick me in a desperate attempt to appear the nuanced policy wonk she is so very not.

Over-confident much, Sarah?

O-kay, lil' lady. Go shoot a moose.

And we'll see about making our way through your blizzard of lies.

In the meantime, one finds oneself continuing to be amused by the self-professed pro-life (oh?) Mrs. Palin being so often photographed with dead things.

Hmm.

I also enjoyed reading this story in the the New York Times, where Palin was repeatedly referred to as "Ms. Palin." Throughout the primary campaign, the NY Times referred to Senator Hillary Clinton not as Ms. Clinton nor as Senator Clinton, but as "Mrs. Clinton," btw. While always reporting on her hair and makeup. But today's story doesn't mention "Ms. Palin's" hair or makeup, not once. Is this progress? Preferential treatment?

No Blood For Hubris:

It seems that even with Charley Gibson spoonfeeding her, Sarah has problems. Her obvious cluelessness about the Bush Doctrine, notwithstanding Gibson's attempts to save her, is hilarious. BTW, have I ever mentioned what a fucking tool Gibson is. Just in case I haven't; HE'S A FUCKING TOOL!!

"But, Charlie, again, we’ve got to remember what the desire is in this nation at this time. It is for no more politics as usual and somebody’s big, fat resume maybe that shows decades and decades in that Washington establishment, where, yes, they’ve had opportunities to meet heads of state … these last couple of weeks … it has been overwhelming to me that confirmation of the message that Americans are getting sick and tired of that self-dealing and kind of that closed door, good old boy network that has been the Washington elite." -- Sarah Palin

...so vote for Obama already, Sarah... :)
