Conservative “Payback” and Dancing With The Stars
November 23, 2010 By
.
Anyone who has been watching the U.S. political scene over the last while is quite aware that the process has turned into a circus act with the GOP leadership in Congress playing the role of ringmaster. The result has been one huge screwing of the poor, the unemployed, the uninsured, the middle class, the environment, immigrants and the economy…basically a royal screwing of the entire nation. As bizarre as it all was during the Bush years, it is nothing compared to the madness of the last two years. The election of a black liberal President has truly sent the right over the edge.
Here’s the latest bit of insanity.
With just one more night of competition to go before we find out if Bristol Palin wins the hideous-yet-coveted Mirror Ball Trophy, the executive producer of “Dancing with the Stars” insists the show’s security system is catching and expunging all those votes for her that are being cast by people using bogus e-mail addresses to game the voting system.
…a conservative blogger who’s taking credit for the e-mail voting shenanigans, says he orchestrated the whole thing to pay back Democrats for years of voter fraud at the polls.
And Bristol’s mom, Sarah, last week tried to capitalize on the size of her daughter’s audience to boost ratings for her own, far less popular reality series, TLC’s “Sarah Palin’s Alaska.”
Amazing. It is only proper that Sarah Palin and her own personal collection of clowns and loons take center stage alongside an unprecedented fine collection of wingnuts. We live in interesting times no doubt.

Sarah Palin: To Run Or Not
November 22, 2010 By
.
The good news for Palin:
In a mythical Republican primary Ms. Palin gets 19 percent, including 25 percent of GOP women, followed by Romney with 18 percent, Huckabee at 17 percent, Gingrich at 15 percent, Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty at 6 percent and Daniels, Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour and Sen. John Thune of South Dakota at 2 percent each.
The bad news: Obama would crush her in the general election by a 48% – 40% margin.
Polls of this sort, two years before the actual election and before prospective candidates have begun campaigning in earnest, are meaningless. But it does say something of the mindset of Republicans who despite Palin’s glaring inadequacies, still view her as a serious contender. Interesting…if not pathetic.
A more relevant find from the poll is that by a 64 to 27 percent margin, Democratic voters want Barack Obama as their party’s 2012 nominee.

Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin (words every liberal wants to hear)
November 13, 2010 By

The Palin numbers.
The number of Americans viewing Sarah Palin unfavorably has hit the highest point since she burst onto the national stage over two years ago, according to a poll out Friday.
The Gallup survey conducted in the days after the Nov. 2 election found more than half of Americans — 52 percent — hold a negative opinion of the former Alaska governor. Only 40 percent viewed her favorably, which ties her lowest score from about a year ago.
Amazingly, the poll also indicates that a full 80% of Republicans hold a favorable view of Palin. Hopefully this is one time when the right’s delusional tendencies will benefit Democrats if Palin is encouraged enough to run.
(Shhh…no one tell her that 81% of Dems and 53% of independents view her unfavorably. Run, baby, run!)

On Sarah Palin, Unicorns and Pixie Dust
October 16, 2010 By
.
Seriously, within the realm of politics, is there any more gifted speaker or writer with as exquisite a command of the English language than Sarah Palin? I don’t believe there is as demonstrated by a speech she gave this Thursday.
“[Democrats] act like they’re permanent residents of a unicorn ranch in fantasyland if they really think they’re gonna be able to turn it around with the liberal policies they have to continue, and you know, it’s pixie dust.”
Pixie dust indeed! So moving were her words that one exuberant audience member could not help himself and shouted out:
“Throw the bums out!”
To which our poet laureate responded with:
“Amen, brother. You betcha.”
I swear, it’s enough to bring tears to one’s eyes.
Palin 2012.
