new Sarah Palin book to enthuse over

she really is so terrible & the book seems essentially pointless

the new york times magazine article on her was such a pos blowjob too

"I guess this shouldn't surprise us, since both of them spent almost two decades in the pews of the Reverend Jeremiah Wright's church listening to his rants against America and white people," Palin writes.

^^^^ hate this

what makes it worse is that I can hear her voice when I read that

ugh god she's the worst

i do actually hate her, and ordinarily i never say i hate people.

i wish i didn't call people "the worst" so much, but this time i mean it.

she is the devil. so smug and ignorant and vicious and bullying and entitled.

I look forward to the RIP thread

you kidding me, she'll be like the right wing kenobi, martyr "more powerful than you could possibly imagine"

guys, just let go

pew is a funny word

pepalin pew

i don't wish death upon anyone, even terrible people like palin. though it would be funny if she was eaten by wolves.

if she becomes president i genuinely don't know what i'll do except wish the survivors luck - fortunately she won't become president, right

right

she will never win the presidency

for one thing, the moneyed interests don't see her as THEIR moron, they can't trust her

it's not even the left hating her that would doom her chances but a lot of conservatives think she's a joke and a stain upon their party.

she'll seize the presidency, as it is rightfully hers

good. although whoever it is won't be a darn sight better. good thing the GOP doesn't have a single commanding figure to rally behind!

you haven't come face to face with the animal magnetism of tim pawlenty

Here's what the elite really think:

Her chances of winning the presidency are certainly greater than zero.

Thanks, M@tt!

Anyone watch her TV show? Turns out she can't hunt or fish properly lolz

Her chances of winning the presidency are certainly greater than zero.

you're right. Schwarzenegger has zero chance of winning the presidency, for ex. Palin is at least of age and a citizen. Otherwise I'd say her chances are like 1 in a 100.

Plutocrats don't want to see their money going to an unpredictable nut.

Markets like security.

As always, gentlemen, follow the money.

Her chances of winning the presidency are certainly greater than zero.

1 percent is a terrifyingly huge chance.

She admitted on her TV show that she'd rather be out in the Alaskan wilderness. Yet the silly teabaggers will probably vote for her if she runs for president.

who has the Right got apart from her and Tim Rawrrrlenty

boxcarrrrr

I'm telling you: it's Rubio. The GOP has such a terrible record with Hispanics that party leaders will forgo their usual habit of anointing an old, tired worthy and go for someone as pretty and eloquent as Obama.

But, to be honest, I'm more concerned about DADT and the START treaty than in 2012.

@!#&!? BOXCAR NO NO NO NO

I'm telling you: it's Rubio. ...pretty and eloquent as Obama.

^^^ this is what I've been telling people, too. GOP wanted to do this with Jindal, but now they think Rubio is their anti-Obama.

that would be a pretty meteoric rise for Rubio, but it would make sense that the GOP's braindead calculus would result in them assuming their best chances against Obama are with a young, ethnic, glamorous guy of their own

problem with Jindal is that he's sub-mental

GOP sees Obama's presidency as meteoric, too, and they want in on something similar.

More proof that when these idiots aren't projecting their shit, they're COPYING.

Would a right-wing Cuban-American have traction with other Hispanic-American subsets (many of whom skew left) or is that an assumption hastily made by LOLstupidanglos?

that's a good question. I'm not really sure.

I don't think the latino community is quite as uniform a voting bloc as the black community tho

Rubio seems like the only non-terrible option at the moment, but does he want 2012 or 2016?

My father is an immigrant from South America, and he used to make terrible racist jokes about Cubans.

Rubio is as much a cipher as Obama was in 2007. He says all the "right" things, but I know his type SO well.

thought u might be going for some birther lulz [via]

There's lots of inter-Latino racism, in other words (cf. the Chicano vs. Latino debate).

sarah palin asked bristol to GOOGLE the american economy in preparation for a big speech.

sorry, should be in quotes, i.e., "the american economy."

btw, i like how roger ebert always puts the ® sign next to sarah and bristol palin's name after tweeting it.

Manuscript for book by Ex-Palin aide slamming her, leaked to the press

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/44/2011/02/ex-aide-slams-palin-in-leaked.html

i saw some excerpts. it didn't seem like very powerful stuff, iirc (not that it has to be; just saying).

yeah that palin is frivolous and vindictive isnt news to anyone

Zzzzzzzzzzzzz. Just another hit piece on Sarah Palin by the Liberal Daily Mail. Nothing illegal or unethical here, move on. The Anchorage Daily News is another Liberal paper with a political agenda. The DM has never one had a positive story on Palin, because you hate Conservatives and especially effective Conservative women like Palin.

o_O at the DM appearing liberal to anyone.

Found this on the political thread, but I'll hold to my promise of only posting about her here:

http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/2011/02/23/us/politics/AP-US-Palin-India.html?hp

I can't be the only one who's hoping for a photo like this to come back:

http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_228EvtU1ZYY/TBpkIDiRBUI/AAAAAAAAAO4/SuyYuN_WtwY/s1600/ps7jhgjhgjh.jpg

I envision her in the front row, third from the right. Instead of all those potted plants in the foreground, some kind of animal carcass laid out. Instead of the Maharishi, Glenn Beck; instead of the Beatles--well, I don't know. Whoever's the most visibly right-wing rock band around today.

Margaret Thatcher to Sarah Palin: don't bother dropping by

Allies of former prime minister regard darling of Tea Party movement as a frivolous figure unworthy of an audience

Sarah Palin wants to show to the Republican right that she is the true keeper of the Ronald Reagan flame by meeting the late president's closest ally on the world stage.

A meeting with Margaret Thatcher in the centenary year of Reagan's birth would be the perfect way of launching her bid for the Republican nomination for the 2012 US presidential election.

This is what Palin told Christina Lamb in the Sunday Times:

I am going to Sudan in July and hope to stop in England on the way. I am just hoping Mrs Thatcher is well enough to see me as I so admire her.

It appears that the former prime minister has no intention of meeting the darling of the Tea Party movement. Andy McSmith reported in the Independent this morning that Palin is likely to be "thwarted" on the grounds that Thatcher, 86, rarely makes public appearances.

It would appear that the reasons go deeper than Thatcher's frail health. Her allies believe that Palin is a frivolous figure who is unworthy of an audience with the Iron Lady. This is what one ally tells me:

Lady Thatcher will not be seeing Sarah Palin. That would be belittling for Margaret. Sarah Palin is nuts.

Thatcher will show the level she punches at when she attends the unveiling of a statue of Ronald Reagan outside the US embassy in Grosvenor Square on Independence day on 4 July. This is what her ally told me:

Margaret is focusing on Ronald Reagan and will attend the unveiling of the statue. That is her level.

thatcher otm

Can't wait to see her try to shake hands with it.

Memo to Sarah Palin: Jews HATE you because you are functionally illiterate.

tbf she's putting air quotes around the necklace

From her Iowa speech: "corporate crony capitalism," "permanent political class," "relentlessly rage until we restore." She's been watching Albert Brooks in Broadcast News ("Pretty peppy party, pal").

McGinniss has Rice confirming the one-night stand. Additionally, the Enquirer says Sarah had a six-month affair with Todd's business partner Brad Hanson, and that that affair led to the dissolution of the men's snowmobile dealership (but not, clearly, the Palin marriage).

Perhaps they were kept together by the drugs, which Sarah and Todd were both, McGinniss writes, fans of: "before Palin became Alaska governor she was seen snorting cocaine off an overturned 55-gallon oil drum while snowmobiling with pals." He also quotes "a Palin family friend as saying that husband Todd Palin also snorted coke, describing him as 'on the end of the straw plenty.'"

snowmobiles, sex, cocaine ... the palins are doing so much to promote alaska as THE party state.

ah! it's so good to laugh after a stressful thing like that. she's totally out of the picture, right...

This is mostly reminding me of her terrible accent on 30 Rock.

her accent was wicked smart!

Sorry, gotta say the real SP is hotter.

I love the use of "American Woman" there so much--I was just about to look for a Guess Who thread where I could post the trailer. (Also used brilliantly in American Beauty.)

I hadn't seen her in awhile, but of course she's all about this Duck Dynasty b.s.... But are there rumors about her health? She looks super gaunt

Page 5: Here I learn something I didn't know and, if I were Sarah Palin, something I wouldn't want anyone to know. But Sarah hustles this fact to the front of the book because she sure as hell wants us to know it: Sarah surprised Todd with a "nice, needed, powerful gun" for Christmas in 2012. It was a "small act of civil disobedience," Palin writes, prompted by "the anti-gun chatter coming from Washington."

What was inspiring that anti-gun chatter in Washington in December of 2012? Oh, right: Twenty children and six teachers were shot dead in their classrooms by a deranged asshole with a "powerful gun." And before the grieving mothers and fathers of Newtown, Connecticut, could put their dead children in the ground, Sarah Palin ran out gun shopping. Buying Todd a gun in the wake of the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary was "fun," Palin writes—and, again, an act of "civil disobedience." Because gun nuts are a persecuted minority.

This paragraph about gun shopping in December of 2012—one first grader at Sandy Hook was shot 11 times—ends with Palin bragging about her tits. I'm not kidding.

haha i love the 'needed' there

Palin's moment has passed. She's got her coterie of ardent fans, but it isn't quite big enough for her antics to register on national politics any more - in spite of her continuing to register on the national media, due to her entertainment value and a certain nostalgia for her heyday on the part of the press.

oops! I forgot to: [\punditry]

reality court show, what a shock blah blah

**cue John Lennon** "The dream is over . . ."

Todd Palin appears to have filed for divorce from former Alaska governor and one-time vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin, his wife of 31 years.

In a document filed Friday in Anchorage Superior Court, Todd Palin, 55, asked to dissolve the marriage, citing an “incompatibility of temperament between the parties such that they find it impossible to live together as husband and wife.”

The divorce filing uses initials rather than full names, but identifies the couple’s marriage date and the birth date of their only child who is a minor, Trig Palin. The filing asks for joint legal custody of the child.

Anchorage attorney Kimberlee Colbo is representing Todd Palin in the divorce. In a filing, Colbo said she would ask the court to designate the divorce confidential as it moves forward.

he tried to register as independent but gained independence by mistake

lonely guy (riding a snow machine) just thinking baout things

First Dude UNLEASHED

Tired of her buying him guns all the time; just wanted to appreciate the guns he already had.

We laugh now, but just wait until Trump replaces Pence with Todd. Then we can laugh some more, but still.

Stupid-and-proud-of-it white folks may seem like a huge demographic but... large enough to elect a President?
