Hey, remember when McCain said he asked Palin for foreign policy advice "many times"? (I know, why would a foreign policy genius like John McCain ever need advice, right?) Does he rely on her sage counsel for campaign matters as well?
Eh, not so much…
An odd moment on Fox News: Sarah Palin appears to say that she heard about her campaign’s decision to pull out of Michigan only today, despite it being reported far and wide across our great land yesterday. She seems to suggest she heard about it from the newspapers…
"Well, that’s not a surprise because, you know, the polls are showing we’re not doing as well there evidently as we would like to," Palin said. "But I read that this morning also. I fired off a quick email and said `Oh, come on, you know, do we have to? Do we have to call it there?’"
Sargent evenhandedly points out that she would have been pretty deeply ensconced in debate prep yesterday, but it’s still difficult to avoid the impression that McCain views her solely as his presidential meal ticket, not as any kind of serious equal partner. By way of comparison, can anyone imagine Joe Biden finding out the next day that Obama pulled out of Ohio?
Also worth noting that the Fox anchor refers to Palin as "the Democratic vice-presidential nominee," which is like the kiss of death for a Republican. On the other hand, maybe McCain made the same mistake and that’s why he didn’t tell her about Michigan!

If (God forbid) she gets elected, she will be sequestered in the Navel Observatory, pondering her belly button.
aren;t we tired of uninformed people leading the country?
ARG poll had Dubya’s approval rating at 19% a couple of weeks ago…
Evening Pups the Digg is now open!
Hey Eli. Great that you got this via Matt Ortega, and that you gave him a h/t. I really do love Matt, in a totally motherly way. Got to know him via FDL.
Eli !
Hey, VG! Hey, Petro!
Mavericks don’t ponder, bellybuttons or anything else.
They do not blink, although I’ve heard, they do plenty of winking.
So, god forbid (again) that they get elected, Caribou Barbie will spin around and around and turn into a Winking Wonder Woman, and do god (him again) knows what with her new super powers.
Eli! I just can’t see her ’one heartbeat away’…! 8-(
Dood … you have a Repub Governor ?
I found myself in the uncomfortable position of agreeing with Palin today. I’ve always been annoyed by Katie Couric.
who are these 19%ers? are they procreating?
Do you think it’s pierced? Does she have tatoos?
Who isn’t … it still doesn’t justify Lyin’ Palin’s Flip Flop a la Johnny Mac … sounds like a Starship tune … *g*
Unfortunately yes! In fact Miz Palin cited her, Linda Lingle, in last night’s debate in referring to the diversity of McSame’s supporters… I about gagged…!
*smacks forehead* … so that’s where her Third Eye is …
My fav talking head last night was Peggy Noonan …
Agreeing on what grounds? And, btw, I too have always been annoyed by Katie Couric, but I have to say that in the interview with Palin, she was hard-hitting. Not that was a hard task, of course.
Back to read, Eli, but Turley will be on Maddow now.
I found myself in the uncomfortable position of agreeing with Palin today. I’ve always been annoyed by Katie Couric.
don’t sweat it. I’m sure that the reasons for annoyance are ways different. Well, pretty sure.
You didn’t tell Katie that you can’t think of a single newspaper you read daily, did you?
His ratings have been so far in the tank for so long you hardly see it mentioned any more. I’m waitin’ for single digits, meself.
Palin said that she was annoyed by Katie Couric. I agreed with her on that point.
On the Hopi Reservation we have Mavericks. They are feral horses and they aren’t worth anything.
Do you think it’s pierced? Does she have tatoos?
well by her own admission she’s not a DC “inny” so she must be an “outy”
Whatever you do, don’t see Idiocracy…
It’s very funny that Palin is McC’s running mate and she had to e-mail him? Isn’t she allowed to call him? And she was surprised about Michigan – they must have slipped out of there in the dead of night. good gawd
I think KO masterfully debunked Rich Lowry’s obsession… “You didn’t need to tell us about your masturbating while watching her…”
“Here’s my e-mail address – if you use this you can be sure that I’ll get your message right away…”
If she can’t handle Katie then what will she do when the phone rings at 3 A.M., hand it to Todd?
Per the discussion I just heard on Bill Moyer’s program, the reason Couric was successful was the opportunity for follow-up. Couric could repeat her question until Palin gave an answer or was forced to admit she had none. In the debate, Ifill posed a question, Palin offered a completely off-topic response to kill time, then on to the next question and the next evasive answer.
and, I found this kitty youtube recently, and posted it on my feel good kitty blog.
I will link the original youtube, so as not to be blogwhoring. It’s in Japanese, but I translated the title and the comment via Babelfish.
I feel that there is a deep political metaphor here.
translated title: The cat which fights with the enemy which is not visible*
translated comment: The cat which it tries to catch the wind which comes out of the exit cone of the air purification machine*

and, for any of you kitty fans out there, it really is an exceptionally good and very unique YouTube.
rut roh… my worse nightmare come to film?
did he say that?
Man, decisions, decisions… Bosox-Angels showdown, or Rachel…? Tough decision…! ;-)
Charlie Gibson did this as well, and insisted that she answered his question on whether it would be okay to follow bin Laden into Pakistan.
Probably, but it’s pretty hilarious.
that the Fox anchor refers to Palin as “the Democratic vice-presidential nominee,” which is like the kiss of death for a Republican.
Actually, I have noticed that the ads I have seen from Republicans have gone out their way to mention that they are actually members of the GOP. I think the GOP brand name is absolutely toxic.
This was not a mistake in my view – this is an effort to mislead, Fox has done it before.
That he did! I might have paraphrased it a bit, but, the masturbating came through loud and clear…! ;-)
who are you pulling for?
damn, I missed it
Rethug consultant and operative on local teebee Florida This Week (very good) said that McSFB’s MI people were already here and setting up. He speaks for the party and this is how they chose to announce it in this area.
So one is forced to conclude that the debate format favored Palin in that it didn’t provide ample opportunity to embarrass herself.
well of course she was! why would she not be? *g*
Fox tends to save that for Republicans who are in really deep shit, like Foley – trying to smear their stink onto the other side.
Die hard BoSox fanatic, however, my number 2 team is the Angels…! ;-)
That’s actually what the McCain campaign pushed for.
Ah, thanks for that info.
Hey, punaise! Been wondering about you.
I agree with Rachel…….that was THE BEST take-down Keith’s ever done. Daymn! Didn’t even know you could say the “M” word on teevee. May even stay up for the next six hours just to listen to the two MSNBC reruns (the down-side of being unable to watch vids on-line and lack of one of those tivo thingies).
Oh, come on, you know, do we have to?
That’s a keeper. Precious. Thanks.
Wow, I stop in and we are not bashing Obama, what’s the problem here?
Die hard BoSox fanatic, however, my number 2 team is the Angels…! ;-)
McGramps is pulling for the BoSox too. He said so on JoeScar’s MorningPuke.
Yes, he did; he did, wobbs and it was a thing of great beauty.
I’m wondering how far the story that Palin read from crib notes will carry… Ala Shrub’s ‘bulge’ issue…!
Mc Cain rep comin up on Rachel
You have to wonder if they have any actual political people who have run campaigns for years or if they just turned the whole thing over to lobbyists who know nothing about politics. It’s the strangest campaign I have every seen. They just lurch from one day to the next.
My girls (20 and 22) don’t have tattoos. I wonder if studies have been done on whom gets what type of tattoos. And why.
Seems so permanent to me…as though “I know I’ll never change my mind.”
I was kind of rooting for the Cubs but Harry Caray, the new patron saint of lost causes appears to have passed out (again) in his announcer’s booth up yonder.
Well, that was her only debate. They just have to run out the clock and keep her away from interviewers for the next month.
It’s been switched over to Donna Edwards but Obama is our real job so we’ll get back to him s/
Aaw, don’t tell me that BS…! 8-(
Yoo hoo, Loo Hoo…me too!
Jack Brickhouse was the Cubbies announcer, Harry was Johhny-come-lately made famous by cable.
Don’t get me started on tattoos. Think they’re body mutilization. Now I’ve probably offened someone here, but if so, they don’t need to show it to me and everything will be fine.
sorry, but sweartagod, when I heard Gramps say that, I thought of you…
Go here and keep track of the game and watch Rachel both. Click on Gameday above the box score.
What, no picture in picture?
Also the fact that they’re in a 0-2 hole headed to LA…? Not looking good for the Windy City, since the Rays have put the White Sox in a similar hole…
HEY! If you were a hot dog, and you were starving… would you eat yourself?
“Say it ain’t so, Joe!” made Hillary’s scripted “Xeroxes we can believe in,” line sound inspired by comparison.
Sarah doesn’t watch tv, doesn’t read newspapers, doesn’t use the Internet Machine, and is going through life on her looks with her fingers in her ears saying, “la lalalalala lala”.
Holy Cow!
I believe she is turning rogue, I think she thinks she has presidential authority, she intends on “bleeding” presidential authority over to the legislative branches and she needs the practice telling mccain what to do
she is chaneling cheney
I still think the pollsters are giving Georgie a ten point lead in his ratings, so therefore, he’s actually @ 9% today. ;-)
The party mucky-mucks had a secret meeting yesterday. The only word that has leaked out so far is that it was “tense.” The GOP in FL is like the Mafia. They’ve got organization up the wazoo and the stupid gay-marriage amendment is on the ballot so they’ve got all the fundie wingnuts fired up. The AA, Hispanic and youth vote have them scared to death and the new registrations are mostly D.
I hate tattoos, though I know a lot of people I like who have them. Some I love. I advise against if anyone asks. (They look so horrible 25 years later…)
I would eat myself if I could reach
sadly, no
Shit, Brickhouse is a great surname. I find the Caray statue outside Wrigley a tad disturbing. Attack of the 40-foot Hans Moleman.
Didn’t have the graphic last night either. Regular season it was very nice. Went with the radio quite well.
I FIGURED IT OUT……I did……. We are ALL in an Alice in Wonderland magic story and McCain is the Cheshire Cat and Palin is the Queen……
Jack was interesting. I listened to him for years and didn’t really like him. He was the speaker at a sports banquet there in Champaign and his stories were wonderful.

Yep…. seen a lot of 70 yr old tushies as a nurse with some weird blob on their butt….. and the ensuing discussing with my co-workings guessing what it was many years ago…….
I thought Lindsey Graham wanted to be the queen. :)
Baseball and the radio are awesome. I remember taking an Aussie to a Braves game and listening to the post-game on the drive home. That was the first time I realized how rich it could be and how, if you were not raised with it, it might as well be farsi.

And Pelosi and Reid are the rabbits.
Brickman had better material to work with for his anecdotes. Pro athletes were a lot more interesting back before they were all millionaires. I worked for former Bears player Stan Wallace. I was their first round draft pick in 1953 (or ‘54, can recall for certain). I saw a copy of his rookie contract, $7000 for his first year.
mr has been trying to watch baseball but finds it a bore
True that – but haven’t you noticed in general that the Republicans have been running away from their own party?
Sorry, meant “Brickhouse.”
Manny who? Jason Bay just hit a 3 run homer…! ;-)
it is very interesting that those of us at our Debate party were not the only ones who picked up on the Palin Sex kitten…… or …. Naughty Librarian character…..
Well, you see he’s busy right now being one of McC’s ladies-in-waiting along with HoJo.
Stan’s Gridiron and Kam’s. My dad knew Stan well and I played ball with Kam in the 70’s.
Wouldn’t you?
*covers tattoos*
lol
That’s technology for ya. My grampa had one on each inner forearm, elbow to wrist. Put on in 1917, long before electric needles. In the 60’s they were still sharp and bright.
Go Rachel Go…… finally got a McCain spokesperson on the show…..
I once had a girlfriend who told me that if she were double-jointed she wouldn’t need me.
Despite only having seen him on TV, I am somehow certain Lindsey is a guy who reeks of cologne… or kuh-log-nuh, as the pronounce it in SC.
Absolutely! I got turned off BB after the 1994 strike when I got a clue about steroids. But, I still love BB lingo. Even back then, I would watch TV with the sound turned off, while listening on the radio. I read the IHT when I lived in England for 10 years, and at some moment I realized hey, I love BB language. And, the Brits don’t have a F as to what this is about.
Same can be said about the Polynesian tattoos, many are crisp and bright when they’re applied in the traditional ways… Very painful…!
Ever listen to the “sport” report on BBC?
Yup, he died about 6 or 7 years ago, buried across the street from (practically in the shadow of) Memorial Stadium.
Does she have a bellybutton?

You’re right – he reeks.
I’d rather listen on the radio than watch on teebee. Gameday really adds to it. The only thing about teebee is a lot of the time you can read the signs, or try to.
I’m convinced that Nancy Pfoten(&%(%($#$# is just a head on a stick with a turtleneck. Her head wags, and nothing else ever moves.
I have one tattoo but it goes along my spine and is opposite my root chakra. It signifies moving forward and has a very deep spiritual meaning to me. Don’t worry, I won’t show it
My dad was supposed to be buried there but ended up in the Phoenix National Veterans Cemetery(we mixed his black lab’s ashes with him) and I scattered some of his ashes in front of Huff Gym.
Rachel is being filibustered….. fact check….. fact check
Ah, so you think she might have sprung from the forehead of Zeus?
*spew* warning please
Im late ,but im here..good evening Eli,etal
Man. Maybe the tattoos went deeper? No clue. Skin is skin…
I’m sick as a dog. Let’s get on Obama’s ass while I’m gone! nite
hehheheheehehehehhe
feel better
((sadly))
have a good night Raven
Aloha, Raven!
not that I know of. Should I check it out? I’d have to do that via internet. If you mean in the past, no, I didn’t. Lived with a rugby and soccer fanatic whilst in UK, and watched matches on the beeb. The TV commenters were much better than TV baseball here.
But, I do seem to remember that “back to square one” comes from radio lingo for soccer aka football. So, there’s some lingo history there as well. *g*
sending healing energy your way
feel better
Plus, she sits like she has a rod up her a**.
I’ve seen films of that. Doesn’t look like a very pleasant experience. Mine lost every colour but black years ago. I’m told metabolism plays a large part.
Bummer, Raven. Sleep well.
I have seen some awful tattoos but I have seen some positively beautiful ones as well. What I have is considered ‘tribal’ and it was applied old school way but I can appreciate that not all people find body art ‘art’ *g*
Kundalini girl.
Reality check- irrc Jane once mentioned or asked about getting a tatoo to cover up (or whatever) various surgery scars.
Heh. Remember the MILF story leading back to the McCain campaign? Ahem…hmmm…seems it leads on to the Palin page with a video message:
http://www.crooksandliars.com/…..hemilfcom/
Nite, bro.
If you did, I’m certain he would have approved. I seem to have reached a point where I’ve outlived everybody I ever cared about. Haven’t gotten quite used to it yet.
A young teacher at my school has a bro-in-law tattoo artist. He makes twice what I do after teaching 32 years…
G’nite.
Heard stories about the old Catholic schools where they put forks on the back of chairs to make the kids learn to sit up straight……
Oy Raven, feel better…sleep.
That’s different.
*g* yep but I got it before I had ever heard of kundalini.
Now that is a damn shame but teachers get shitty pay.
I’m sure you haven’t outlived all those who care about you, though. It gets better as you get older.
that should have read…
Yes that is where I’m at now but I got the tattoo before I had ever heard of that form of Yoga
{{{{{WOBBS}}}}}
I’ll bet that Palin is “miffed” at being left out of the “loop” regarding Michigan…bein’ the big VP persona…Hot conversation with Todd tonight I’d bet…
Question:
Is it just me or does it bother anyone else Palins inability to speak English….. the slang hick stuff is really pushing me right over the edge….. ya Betcha….
you crack me up
An extreme form of good pres-bad vpres game? That’s what I’m thinking. This way of doing it both puts her back in the only venue where she excels, i.e. as a rallying point for the dirt to come in MI and elsewhere, and lets McC look on in embarrassed and sanctimonious bemusement while shrugging, “Well, that’s our Sarah!”
Ptui!
I learned it in Corvallis OR in the late 70’s. There was a large community of Sikhs there. I like it better than any other type.
*g* what was that all about?
she kill me too!
she seems to have an issue with verbs (she doesn’t use any). i always here lots of the other parts of a sentence but those pesky nouns seem to allude her
I don’t get that Palin is the type that likes to be “used”…this won’t go down easily…
What if they lose? What if they have to go back to AK and face Troopergate? What if she loses her job as Governoress?
Oy vey.
The wolves and polar bears say…Kharma is a biatch!
great show on PBS now,on origins of SLAVERY…started with the Dutch East India Co
Oh my, ratfood. I care about you! I always appreciate your comments. Relatedly, I’d like to say that I miss so many old “friends” here. I always wonder if they are okay.
I CANNOT believe this country is considering ANOTHER person who pronounces it
new QUE lar
my gawd
I was trying to clarify my original response to you. seems it didn’t work LOL
Hey, you.
That’s her whole brand. That she’s a simple middle-class maverick who understands our need for straight talk.
The flirtiness is probably not necessary, though…
2 words
FOX SNOOZE
Howard Fineman just said “when” Palin become VP.
What does he know that we don’t know????? Say wha??????
I have gone to a few seminars offered and they have been truly informing. The seminars even included a few hours of practice and I loved it.
I think if she can’t hold onto her current job, she’s toast.
ITS BRAZEN…as brazen hussey…wink wink..sway sway
also, it really bothers me also, because, we’re mavericks.
my 160 for selise at 153.
That’s where she needs to remain… Middle class…!
his shoe polish hair dye,has pickled his brain,that is all
bothers me a lot. Earlier today I was wondering about the demographics/ age group of the Palin appeal. Like I was wundering how she comes across to the youngest contingent of voters. Like, fer sure she sounds like a Valley Girl. Term is a propos, as Wasilla is in Mat-Su valley, and is called The Valley up there in AK.
I had an idea downstairs;
you know what would be good?
one of those java scripts that would take a real sentence and turn it into whatever language or dialect we choose
so if I pasted in;
“our state produces 3 percent of the nations oil”
it would return;
“given the ever so important and evolving need for oil and energy and the things that are affected by those oil and energy concerns, we are very proud, almost supremely proud and very maverickish about the facts of data that tell us with no doubt and with absolute certainty that alaska refines, processes and refines 80 percent of the entire energy requirements and needs for the american people and the security of the nation which is very very important”
don’t you mean, sadly?
I wonder what she would do??? Bein’ so experienced and all??? A park ranger to spy on Russia from that island??? With binoculars?? Todd would have to get a job I guess.
that me…
{{{{{SD}}}}}
I bought some batteries, but they werten’t included.-S.Wright
That must be how she does it…
is that the same east india company that started the civil war?
Not sure if it gets better or we just get used to it, might be the same thing.
What does Todd actually do besides hang around the gov’s office? Does he have an occupation? Or is he doing a McCain and living off the wife?
Thanks, Loo Hoo.
The 3HO Foundation has a website where you can find all you need. I still have my original “Kundalini Yoga/Sadhana Guidlines.” It’s still in print and I highly recommend it.
did they?…i did not know that…they were the first inhabitants of Manhattan…i highly recomend the program
Todd’s gonna say…dayem, they didn’t tell us…this is embarrassing, they’re using you, and it’s too hot in D.C. anyway…I can’t snowmachine in D.C….besides, one of those conservative guys is gettin’ off on you…yeah, John.
They could live off the wildlife since she likes to kill stuff. Todd could just sit around and be decorative.
talking tobbacco now in Virgina….profitt$$$$ baby
Doing his wife and living off of McCain.
Yep. Gettin’ tired.
you are the best. thanks for the info.
I actually learned about Chakras through a capoeira teacher in Brasil. It is not a part of capoeira but it was something he personally studied and practiced
Um I think that would be native Americans, not the Dutch East India Company.
He has a snowmobile dealership and races them too…! ;-)
Sincerely, continue to hang out. This has been a stressful time for everyone. Channel Petrocelli!

Aaaah, you betcha.
you are correct,i meant YURPEONS
Sarah might be wondering what The Dude is up to!
yea went to the doctoday my BP was 142/88,its usually 130/80
Q. Do you know how to tell a repub from a democrat?
A. Ask them to pronounce “nuclear.”
I knew I shouldn’t have raised the topic. The devil made me do it.
The “valley speak” makes me crazy. She sounds like one of those women whose self image froze in high school.
politics got your pressure up?
i disagree,she thinks VERY highly of herself…uninsultable
Calmate.
i guess,it was the gyno….and i hatttttttttttttttte going there
The rumors on the street are that Todd was an assistant Governor. He spent lots of time helping Sarah consolidate her neo-con regime.
Todd stalked his former brother in law, the trooper of Troopergate. I think Todd was involved in the firing of Bitney, a former aide to Sarah. Bitney was datingtheex of Todd’s business partner.
Then there are the numerous email accounts. Todd got copies of confidential government business. Of course, ET is the guy to ask, and Mudflats the place to check.
it was the east india import company that started america
king george lowered taxes for his pals in that company and the colonies went balistic
yup, the boston tea party was a revolt because the king LOWERED taxes not raised them…for big industry
we need to take a lesson from our founders
Hair-do too.
So glad you said that. I was working around it to avoid the risk of offending *g*
yea,biofeedback….my dearest buddy/next door neighbor 80 yr old farmer gave me catnip,and told me to drink the tea….better than AMBIEN …”g”
Yup. Cocktails and weanies and a bored husband with an overly powerful wife that’s …trouble in River City. I just don’t see this as a good move for them.
Palin is being used to try to win an election for McBush, because she’s “hot”.
many..very wise men,cept for the slavery deal
Great we get a twofer. two dumbasses for the price of one
me too. but my doc is pretty cool
Heh, how many times did Caribou Barbie said we need to lower taxes last night? ;-)
who said on Janes thread,she was a bitchy,backstabbing beauty contestant bot
Joseph Campbell did a video series which contains a couple videos on Kundalini. I can’t remember the name and I don’t anything on any list of available items that jogs my memory but my library used to have a copy. I’ll have to check. Wouldn’t my watching that again myself some evening.
It’s all a steamy Romance Novel. Maybe Lynn Cheney wrote it.
that and the dentist…………….ew
this is a very important point the democrats should take up, this country started as a revolt AGANST the lowering of taxes
man I wish biden was armed with that fact
agreed because I can’t see what else she brings to the ticket. Although mr wobbs says she does nothing for him (it’s the voice, the hair, oh hell it’s just her)
Bad politicians are elected by good people who are too lazy to vote.-Unknown
he was sooooooooooooooo wunnerful…greatly missed…i taped him and Moyers
email him…thats a great POINT!
Yeah. He’s a guy with some “stuff”.
The Palins are NOT neocons. They are people who believe that Alaska should be separated from the rest of the United States. They are survivalists. They are not concerned with Iraq, Iran, or anything outside of their little world, but they have crafted a way to get into the bigtime, because one or both of them thought they could influence events and it coincided with the McCain campaign needing a gimmick…a hook…to save McBush’s campaign. She is being used as a hook, because she is an attractive woman. Todd is irrelevant.
Gawd. The psychological outcomes of all of this could end up on some TV show in the end.
Not good.
Man, looking at that I need to go climb in my tree. Up late here too many nights this week.
Be good to yourselves, and all other living things.
Namaste
Shadow Governor!
You betcha!
I’m checking out the practice book you suggested and it looks really good
the founders were protectionists, as I am, you cannot allow products that are wrought predator labor companies sold in this country without a tarriff
The Power of Myth with Moyers is on video and DVD.
She’s not bad-looking, but I find her totally repellent as a person. Smug + mean + stupid is not an attractive combination, and I’ve had more than enough of it over the last 8 years.
Um, LS, I think it’s the other way around. McCane was looking for someone to save him, and she was the “lucky winner”.
Keif said in 2005…Sarah signed up for Neties GOPAC TRAINING
I did like Gwen’s asking about Biden’s statement that not paying taxes wasn’t patriotic…! Palin bombed in trying to capitalize on it…
was it this:

It’s worked for me for 30 years. *g* It would be beneficial to have somebody demonstrate the exercises correctly. Makes it a lot easier and fun.
sleep tight!
If I was into women, I wouldn’t give her a second look. Rachel Maddow is more to my liking *g*
yea i taped it
Isn’t that what I said? Well, it’s what I meant anyway…McCain needed them, and they caught the wave….but they have an agenda too…that’s what I meant.

yea but she was with Newt Gingrich in 05…not a novice at this
boa noite waynec
Don’t think so. It was a series of seminars he did on Eastern thought and religion. The name was real simple but it’s been years since I’ve seen it.
True. Reciprocal.
The trouble with Rachel, from the R POV, is that she’s smart, quick, and knows stuff.
this womans voice is enuf to make me pierce my eardrums with ice picks

Ha. I still have my parents’ ice pick. It’s an antique. Won’t get it anywhere near your eardrums, though.
The trouble with Rachel, from my POV, is that she’s not into guys…
Don’t forget about willfully dishonest. Palin’s like an apple that looks slightly appealing on the surface but turns out to be rotten to the core.
The camera loves her. And her smile is GREAT; that little crookedness makes it so much more authentic.
ROFL that is a problem for guys
Um, I know so many guys who claim to have dated MoDo, whom they find hot. You could say you dated Rachel in her prior life, when she was straight.
Coup de grâce
Pelosi and Hoyer are laughing at us on the Wall Street Journal Front Page while the market drops to yhe loest in 10 year at 10,325. Morons and traitors.
Watch the Miriam Fractal Spiral in action.
she came out in High school
*sob* The only shortcoming I can find…
yea ..if she had a good stylist she could be a stunner,but i like her Annie Hall look
Pelosi will laugh from her vineyard and gush over W.
No, I know how that would turn out: “Oh, so it’s *your* fault!”
yea well…better dems in the future…drink up
Who Rachel? She’s gorgeous.
LOL- who did you think you might be offending? Moi? I didn’t know that there was any other place that was called “The Valley” until I started reading ET’s blog

Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man’s character, give him power.
okay gonna go cuddle with the furry kids and the mr (not necessarily in that order)
boa noite pups
Ctuttle, I just saw the masturbation thing on KO. ROFL
why sob? if she’s gay that reduces your chances of …what? You do understand what I’m saying don’t you?
me too….peaceful rest!!!
It was hilarious! Aloha Wobbs! ;-)
One can always dream, right? ;-)
I said a prior life, not earlier in this life.
Prior life, not earlier in this life.
HI CT! well, I am from the Valley, but not of the Valley. And, I am too old to be a real Valley Girl. I mean, like, the Galleria was only a new place when I left. But, it’s hard to drop the regional accent, fer sure. And, in case you’ve never read a comment when I mentioned this, moniker is homage to Zappa. Like, mostly. ;)
Adding St Ronnie’s “there you go again!” to “Say it ain’t so, Joe” was really her downfall, as far as I’m concerned. Just running her flash cards all together at that point.
prior life she may have been a animal *g*
How many cliches can Sarah fit on her pin head?
There’s so many ways one could go with that, but none that the mods would let through.
Like, I get it… Fer sure…! So many Cali transplants here in the Isles…!

Julia’s upstairs with more Palin…!
I think the reason Biden was grinning like a raccoon is that it was obviously scripted to be her ace in the hole and turned out to be a complete turkey (to use a messed metaphor).
Dream away, dear. You are the master of your dreams. And she is adorable. :)
Dunno, perhaps. She’s known as a vengeful bully, which suggests to me she’s not oblivious to criticism. My sense is she’s strong along shrewd/scheming/calculating/defensive lines, but probably not much of a thinker and perhaps not very perceptive.
I suspect the the sexual come-on, good ole girl behavior is her (successful)default mode and situations calling for adaptation, perception and dignity might be a problem for her. OTOH, I could be totally full of BS *VBG*
Now where have we seen that before, I wonder…
Yes *G* I was gonna say she was too much of a valley girl, but I have trouble with language these days and was afraid how it might come out. Quick answers often get me in deep doo doo.
But you were so right! best response is often what comes off of top of brain.
McCain AKA McStupid asking foreign policy advice from Sarah (no brain) Palin gee! that’s it….USA certainly is doomed. Does this mean the whole USA will need to evacuate ASAP?
Hearing that she has not been anywhere outside USA…..this is a total insult to those who are well traveled like myself, and my children.
NO SARAH, I DID NOT GIVE MY KIDS A PASSPORT AND A BACKPACK AND TELL THEM TO TRAVEL THE WORLD.
MY OLDEST DAUGHTER WAS SENT BY HER UNIVERSITY FROM MASSACHUSETTES TO ATTEND CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY IN UK FOR THE WHOLE YEAR DURING HER JUNIOR YEAR IN COLLEGE..THAT WAS HER FOREIGN STUDIES. BECAUSE OF HER BRAIN SHE WAS SENT THERE BY THE UNIVERSITY. SHE ALSO WAS SENT BY THE UNIVERSITY TO ATTEND SYDNEY UNIVERSITY IN AUSTRALIA FOR HALF THE SEMESTER OF HER SENIOR YEAR. SHE WAS ALSO SENT MY THE UNIVERSITY TO ATTEND SCHOOL FOR HER MASTER’S DEGREE IN THAILAND FOR THE WHOLE YEAR. AND ON HER OTHER MASTER’S DEGREE SHE WAS SENT BY THE UNIVERSITY TO STUDY DIFFERENT LAWS OF THE LAND SUCH AS VIETNAM, CAMBODIA, MALAYSIA, INDONESIA, JAPAN, HONGKONG, SINGAPORE, AND SOME OTHER COUNTRY IN ASIA.
FOR MY OTHER DAUGHTER, SHE WAS SENT BY HER UNIVERSITY BECAUSE OF HER OUTSTANDING SCHOLASTIC RECORD TO PERU AND TAUGHT COMPUTER LITERACY FOR THAT COUNTRY FOR A WHOLE YEAR.
ON BOTH OCASSION FOR BOTH OF MY DAUGHTERS….I NEITHER SPENT A DIME OUT OF MY POCKET FOR THEM TO TRAVEL THE WORLD. BECAUSE OF THEIR BRAINS THEY WERE ABLE TO SEE THE WORLD. OF COURSE IN YOUR CASE, YOU DO NOT HAVE THE KIND OF BRAINS THEY HAVE
AS FOR YOU SARAH…YOU DO NOT HAVE THE CAPACITY WHAT MY DAUGHTERS HAVE….YOU ARE A “D” STUDENT WHILE IN COLLEGE, AND YOU PURPORT YOURSELF AS NON-ELITIST WHO HAS NO MONEY TO TRAVEL AND PUT THE BLAME ON THOSE WHO TRAVELED EXTENSIVELY LIKE MY DAUGHTERS. YOU BIG DUMBO.
Sarah Palin proved last night during the debate that she’s more qualified to host a game show than be Vice President of the United States.
I cannot believe that we are seriously thinking of placing this dodo bird within reach of the Presidency.
